Chapter 83 Xiaoyao Pavilion
Si Yan's body froze, his eyes fluctuated slightly, he pursed his lips and turned around, his tone was a little more relaxed than before.
"They lied to you."
After speaking, he entered the clean room without looking back.
Shen Li stared at his back, and finally felt more at ease.
She ran back to her couch in small steps, and after lying down, she didn't forget to mutter.
"Tough mouth."
…
After this day, Shen Li originally wanted to find an opportunity to have a good talk with Si Yan, but as the two of them suddenly became busy, this matter had to be shelved.
Shen Li goes out early and returns late every day, hardly seeing the sun, but Si Yan wakes up earlier and goes to bed later than her, and the time difference between the two is almost perfectly staggered.
Fortunately, all the efforts are rewarded. Shen Li's "No. 1 Pot in the World" and "Nishang Pavilion" have finally officially opened.
Once the hot pot was launched for sale, it immediately attracted many people to try it out. For clothing stores, the audience is narrow after all, and the process must be slow. Shen Li has long been prepared for this.
Shen Li was so busy every day that she didn't notice that there were many "uninvited guests" at home.
That night, just as Shen Li was soundly asleep, a whistle sounded outside the window. Immediately afterwards, Si Yan got up and quickly got dressed, and put on the silver mask by the way.
…
In a dark and damp dungeon.
Si Yan looked at the man who was kneeling and begging for mercy with cold eyes.
His tone was gloomy.
"You are Cao Yuan?"
Cao Yuangang experienced torture to extract a confession, and now he was lying on the ground dying.
When he was first arrested, his mouth was still very rigid, and he only said that he was in business, and he didn't know anything about "Xiaoyaoguan".
As a result, everything was recruited in less than half an hour.
This is about the same time as Si Yan estimated. Most people who are used to enjoying life will not suffer much, especially those like him who are usually involved in the wine and meat business.
Seeing Si Yan walk in, Cao Yuan knew that he was the mastermind behind his arrest.
He asked himself that he had done a lot of bad things, but he never really offended anyone. After all, he was always smooth and good at handling relationships, but he didn't expect that this time he would turn the boat over in the gutter.
But it seems that the person is wearing a mask, and he is also a shameful person. Maybe he is really the person he offended when doing business in the past.
Thinking of this, Cao Yuan propped up his half-used arm, moved forward, forced a smile on his blood-stained face.
"My lord inquired about the Xiaoyao Restaurant, but he has been there before, and blame Mr. Cao for his poor hospitality?
The little one is just an errand runner, if he really offends the adults, he doesn't bother the adults to spend so much time to get the villain.
How about this, Qingzhou has recently brought a batch of new products, and when the time comes, pick two small ones to compensate the adults, right...ah! "
Before Cao Yuan finished speaking, Guan Fu kicked him again.
This made his already scarred leg completely unconscious.
Guan Fu spat at him and scolded angrily.
"Shut your mouth, return new goods, kidnap a girl from a good family and sell them, aren't you afraid of retribution?"
Si Yan watched Guan Fu do it coldly, and didn't intend to dissuade him. When Cao Yuan calmed down, he asked.
"Let me ask you, do you know Si Zhong?"
Cao Yuan saw that these people really didn't arrest him for that matter, and he lost his mind.
People like him have never been trusted, let alone keep any secrets at such a time. When they heard that the other party was not after him, they wished to reveal everything related to Si Zhong.
But unfortunately, he really doesn't know much about Si Zhong.
Cao Yuan said hesitantly.
"I'm just a young man, how can I know about the important people? Although Si Zhong is the housekeeper of Xiaoyao Pavilion, he doesn't go there often."
