Chapter 642 Everyone Wants Seeds
No sooner had Wan Qiqi stepped out the door than Xiao Han arrived!
As everyone knows, Xiao Han will get involved in any profitable shop and profit from it.
Spring is everlasting, just like that!
As everyone knows, when he supports a store, he won't choose two competing stores; he'll let one dominate so that he can make more money.
No one knew why Xiao Han came to Xinglong Restaurant and specifically asked for Wan Qiqi.
With Wan Qiqi absent, Zhu Chengye could only lead Xiao Han upstairs to sit down and send someone to find Wan Qiqi and bring her back.
Xiao Han is different from Xiao Huai. He is not someone who seeks amusement when he has nothing to do. He is a proper young master from a prominent family and an investor with excellent vision.
His arrival made people wonder: Is Xiao Han planning to abandon Chun Chang and take over the Xinglong Restaurant?
In Wan Qiqi's opinion, anyone who thinks about this kind of question is just stupid!
Even if Xiao Han's opinion of her changes, he can't possibly abandon Chun Changzai, whom he has been supporting for several years.
Chun Chang is stable, but Xinglong Restaurant has too many uncertainties.
Zhu Chengye shared the same idea as Wan Qiqi, so he treated Xiao Han as a guest and was very polite to him.
Although Xiao Han did not order any dishes, Zhu Chengye asked the kitchen to prepare a crab-stuffed orange dish.
He personally brought the dishes to Xiao Han and said gently, "Young Master Xiao, this is our crab-stuffed orange. You can eat while you wait."
Xiao Han glanced at it and recalled Wan Qiqi's performance during the competition that day; it was indeed amazing, so he didn't postpone it.
She picked up her spoon, about to eat, but stopped, looking up at Zhu Chengye. "Where did she go? How much longer?"
His time is very precious!
Aside from when he was in the capital, no one in Yunhe County had ever made him wait like this before.
In the past, he would have turned his back on her and left; he wouldn't have waited for a country woman!
Xiao Han himself didn't know why he was still sitting there. It was just a small matter; he only needed to send someone over to deliver a message.
But he came on his own and was willing to sit down, eat, and wait patiently.
He wanted to see what Xinglong Restaurant would become with the help of the Xiao family.
In fact, it's nothing special, just that there are more guests, nothing else has changed.
"We just received news from the outskirts that someone went to the vegetable garden there. She went to deal with it and will be back soon!" Zhu Chengye answered honestly.
There's no need to hide this; the Xiao family could easily find out with a simple investigation.
If he lies, it would imply that Xinglong Restaurant is deceiving Xiao Han.
Xiao Han ate a few bites of crab-stuffed orange without saying a word.
Without adding much more, all that was left was the orange peel from the crab-stuffed orange.
He put down his spoon, stood up, and said, "Since Manager Wan is busy, I'll take my leave."
Judging from his tone, he seemed somewhat angry.
Wan Qiqi happened to be standing at the door when she heard Xiao Han's words and hesitated whether to go in.
If the other party says they want to leave, is it wrong for you to try to stop them?
Xiao Han looked at Wan Qiqi, and Wan Qiqi looked at Xiao Han. They remained silent for a long time, neither speaking nor moving.
Zhu Chengye insisted and immediately walked out, pulling Wan Qiqi's arm to walk back in, while scolding her, "Qiqi, look at you, why didn't you leave earlier or later, but just in time to leave when Young Master Xiao came to find you, making him wait for you for so long, why don't you apologize?"
Wan Qiqi understood Zhu Chengye's meaning, bowed to Xiao Han, and said, "Young Master Xiao, I'm so sorry, I had to go out on business and kept you waiting!"
Xiao Han remained silent and glanced at Zhu Chengye.
Zhu Chengye immediately understood, "Qiqi, apologize to Young Master Xiao properly. I'll go and get back to work!"
When Wan Qiqi heard Zhu Chengye's words, she felt something was off, as if she were just a guest.
Watching the door close, she looked away, glanced around the table, and noticed the bowl of crab-stuffed oranges. She thought to herself: Xiao Han really loves crab!
He smiled, lowered his eyes, and asked, "Young Master Xiao, may I ask what brings you here today?"
Seeing how well Wan Qiqi followed the rules, Xiao Han frowned slightly.
He'd seen plenty of gentle, refined women, and was getting a bit tired of them. Wan Qiqi, on the other hand, was quite interesting because she didn't follow the rules.
However, he had a wife and would never have any improper thoughts. He just felt that such a woman was rare and that her courage was admirable.
"It's nothing serious, I just wanted to ask you for some seeds," Xiao Han replied.
Wan Qiqi was taken aback, somewhat surprised, but quickly regained her composure and asked, "Does the Xiao family have anyone knowledgeable in planting?"
In Wan Qiqi's opinion, Xiao Han would not come to ask for seeds for Chun Changzai.
No need!
Otherwise, there's only one possibility—for the sake of family!
Although Xiao Han looks down on people from humble backgrounds, he doesn't deny that a person's hard work and genuine kindness to their family are admirable.
It's not easy to befriend this kind of person.
But if he has something he wants, he can easily make friends with others.
A flicker of surprise crossed Xiao Han's eyes, but it vanished in an instant. He replied, "Yes."
He didn't expect Wan Qiqi to ask about the Xiao family, instead of Chun Changzai.
“Alright, I’ll go get some seeds for you to take back. If Miss Xiao can grow them, perhaps she won’t care so much about these things.” Wan Qiqi said and left.
She wasn't going to the study to get the seeds; she was clearly going to the mall to buy them.
Xiao Han stared at Wan Qiqi's departing figure, still not coming back to his senses even after she disappeared.
The woman was indeed smarter than he had imagined.
With just a few words, you can tell who he came for and what he came for.
It's a pity about his background. If he had been born into a prestigious family, things might have been different!
Wan Qiqi didn't know what Xiao Han was thinking. After buying the seeds at the mall, she went back and placed them on the table. "There are several kinds of seeds here. They should all grow. You can keep half of them to plant in different seasons. I'm not sure when is the best time to plant them."
She certainly knew it herself, but she couldn't tell Xiao Han, since it was something new and needed to be explored and understood gradually.
