Chapter 69: Chapter 69 Get Out of Here Now

The next day.

After work, Liu Yujuan drove to the bank to pick up Zhao Yulu, and then they arrived at Zhao Hai’s small restaurant.

They parked the car and got out, just in time to see a Rolls-Royce Cullinan parked next to them.

“Driving a Rolls-Royce Cullinan and coming to eat at Zhao Hai’s small restaurant?” Liu Yujuan said with a puzzled face.

Zhao Yulu was also perplexed. People who drove this kind of luxury car should be going to high-end restaurants.

Why would they come here?

However, when they saw the two people getting out of the car, both Zhao Yulu and Liu Yujuan were stunned.

These two people were none other than Xu Yang and Zhao Yuxin.

“Xu Yang, Yu Xin, why did you come in a Rolls-Royce Cullinan? Whose car is this?” Liu Yujuan couldn’t help asking.

She hadn’t imagined the car belonging to either Xu Yang or Zhao Yuxin, which was why she asked such a question.

Truth be told, Xu Yang and Zhao Yuxin were also surprised to see Zhao Yulu and Liu Yujuan.

They didn’t know why the two of them were here.

They had arranged to meet their cousin Zhao Yuqing and have a meal together here.

It was the cousin who craved the dishes cooked by Zhao Hai, so she’d made the arrangements for them to come over.

They didn’t expect to encounter Zhao Yulu and Liu Yujuan here.

“This is my husband’s car. If we don’t ride in this, what should we ride in?” Zhao Yuxin replied indifferently.

The cousin had invited them to her father’s restaurant for dinner tonight. This morning, since Xu Yang had to go to the guild, Zhao Yuxin didn’t drive to work but had Xu Yang drop her off at the bank and pick her up later.

Xu Yang naturally had no objections, and he thought it was a very good arrangement.

Otherwise, when they returned home later, they would have to drive separate cars, which didn’t seem right.

“Xu Yang’s car?” Liu Yujuan’s eyes widened in disbelief, “Didn’t you say you purchased a Maserati Presidente and a villa? How do you still have money to buy a Rolls-Royce?”

Zhao Yuxin replied coldly, “My husband is capable of making money. Is that any of your business?”

Liu Yujuan, seeing Zhao Yuxin’s demeanor, immediately became angry, “Zhao Yuxin, I am your mother. How can you speak to me like this?”

Zhao Yuxin replied coldly, “I never considered you my mother, don’t flatter yourself.”

“You!” Liu Yujuan was so angry that her face turned ashen, and she was about to give Zhao Yuxin a piece of her mind.

However, Zhao Yulu tugged at her arm, “Mom, we’re outside. A lot of people are watching. Let’s talk about it inside the restaurant.”

Liu Yujuan took a deep breath, “Fine, when I see Zhao Hai later, I really want to ask him how he raises his daughter to not recognize her own mother.”

Zhao Yuxin was not afraid of this and asked, “What are you doing here?”

Liu Yujuan snorted coldly, “We’re here to bring money to your father. You’d better persuade him later to take this opportunity. Once the chance is missed, there won’t be another one.”

“Bringing money?” Zhao Yuxin frowned, “What money? Are you that kind-hearted?”

“You’ll find out later,” Liu Yujuan didn’t want to explain now, since they were going to see Zhao Hai anyway. It was better to discuss it together later to avoid repeating herself and wasting time.

“If you won’t say it, forget it. Let’s go, husband,” Zhao Yuxin took Xu Yang’s hand and entered the restaurant.

Then, they headed straight for a private room.

Zhao Hai had already told them that this room was reserved especially for them and would not be open to anyone else tonight.

The employees in the shop all knew that these were the boss’s daughter and son-in-law and didn’t say anything. A server brought them tea and went to notify the boss.

When another server saw Zhao Yulu and Liu Yujuan, they stepped forward to greet them, “Hello, how many are in your party?”

“Don’t worry about me; I’m with the two who were just here,” Liu Yujuan waved her hand and, taking Zhao Yulu, entered a private room.

They sat directly across from Xu Yang and Zhao Yuxin.

Zhao Yuqing hadn’t arrived yet. She had sent a message earlier saying that she suddenly had to entertain a client in the afternoon and would arrive later.

Zhao Yuxin glanced at the two of them but didn’t speak.

Liu Yujuan then said “Yu Lu, go call your dad over.”

Zhao Yulu nodded and was about to stand up to go when the door to the private room opened.

“Yu Xin, you and Xu Yang…”

The person who came in was Zhao Hai, smiling broadly. Mid-sentence, upon seeing Zhao Yulu and Liu Yujuan there, he seemed surprised, “What are you two doing here?”

Liu Yujuan said, “Zhao Hai, I still hope that you will reconsider the matter we discussed last night. It would be better for you, for me, and for everyone.”

Zhao Hai finally understood why Liu Yujuan had come, and his expression darkened, “There’s no need to speak further. I’ve made myself clear. You may leave now.”

Zhao Yuxin asked curiously, “Dad, what’s going on?”

Zhao Hai explained, “That Yang Tiancheng, with the group boss’s approval, wants to start a hotpot chain and is currently looking for storefronts. He wants to rent this one of mine. Last night, this woman called me about it, and I explicitly rejected her. I didn’t expect her to come knocking today.”

Liu Yujuan said, “Zhao Hai, for your own good, we’re offering to rent your shop. How much can this shop of yours make in a year? We’re willing to pay you two hundred and fifty thousand a year, which is already quite a lot. You’d make two hundred and fifty thousand a year without lifting a finger. How can you be unsatisfied? Your shop doesn’t even make a net profit of two hundred and fifty thousand a year after you’ve worked yourself to death, does it?”

Zhao Hai replied, “Whether I make that much or not is none of your business. I enjoy being busy like this—what’s it to you? I’ll say it one more time; I won’t rent the shop to you. Tell Yang Tiancheng to give up. Now, please leave.”

Liu Yujuan said, “Zhao Hai, you truly don’t know how to grasp the situation. It’s been so many years since your issue with Yang Tiancheng; holding a grudge like this, what’s the point?”

Zhao Hai’s face turned grim, “You have the nerve to bring up the past? Leave this minute!”

Liu Yujuan frowned, took a deep breath, and said, “Fine, let’s not talk about the past. Zhao Hai, if you think the rent is too low, we can increase it to three hundred and fifty thousand a year, how about that? I’m telling you, no matter who you rent to, you won’t get a higher rent than this.”

This was what Yang Tiancheng had told her—it wasn’t a number she had made up on the spot. He had said they could offer a rent as high as three hundred and fifty thousand a year.

All they had to do was secure the deal.

Zhao Hai said, “I’ll also be clear with you—no matter how much money you offer, I’m not going to rent the shop to you.”

Liu Yujuan’s face became unsightly, realizing she couldn’t convince Zhao Hai, so she turned to Zhao Yuxin, “Yu Xin, look at your father. He doesn’t know how to make money. Just for the sake of his pride, he’s passing up such a good chance to earn money. If he won’t think of himself, you should at least think for him. Don’t you want to see him stopping from wearing himself out here every day?”

Zhao Yuxin didn’t want her dad to be so tired indeed.

To be honest, a rent of three hundred thousand a year was really not low, and it was rare for someone to offer that much.

That’s approximately how much her dad earned in a year.

But her dad had to keep busy for that.

If her dad leased out the shop, he could bring in that much money without having to fuss around.

That would be beneficial for her dad.

But she also knew that her dad would lease the shop to anyone but Yang Tiancheng.

With this in mind, Zhao Yuxin could only say, “I respect my dad’s decision. Whatever he chooses, I will support him.”
