TSBFL Chapter 96
Chapter 96.1; 不過是毀容
[But it’s just a disfigurement (spoil the beauty)]
The maid’s scream made the original still in anger Chen Ling Er calm down some, but she was flustered in her heart, she subconsciously reached out to touch her own face, the result she only touched a burst of warmth.
Chen Ling Er’s heart thumped as she put her hand down only to see that it was covered in blood. She suddenly screamed, “Ah! My face.” Then she fainted.
The maid looked at the young lady lying on the ground and cried out, “Young lady, young lady, you don’t scare me ah! If you are like this, how can I go back and explain it to the old master and madam?!”
Hearing the noise in the room, the teenager who was eavesdropping outside the door finally couldn’t help himself, he quietly stretched out his head to look inside the room, only to see the two bosses standing there staring ahead with ugly faces, while the Chen family’s young lady was lying on the ground with a face full of blood.
The young man was shocked, quickly shrunk back his head, and quietly and secretly retreated. He learnt such a big secret today, when he went back and told the butler, the butler then told the madam, the madam will surely reward them.
Gu Lang, who was comforting Chen Xing, as if he felt something, glanced at the teenager’s hiding place just now, then immediately lowered his head to look at the master and servant duo on the ground, and said in a cold voice: “Don’t cry! Your young lady had a fit of hysteria just now, and fell to this state by herself. There must have been more than the two people when you guys came here, so quickly go and call someone to come with you and bring your young lady back and see a doctor.”
When that little maid heard Gu Lang’s words, she suddenly seemed to have gained attention, and kept nodding her head, “Yes, yes, the most important thing now is to bring my family’s young lady to see the doctor, go back to go to the doctor.” After saying that, she stood up and ran out in a hurry.
Chen Xing looked at Chen Ling Er who fell on the ground with a face full of blood, and asked with some confusion: “Is she alright like this?”
Gu Lang’s mind just now was all on the frightened Chen Xing, and now only a little distraction to the woman on the ground, scanned around and faintly said, “Not gonna die, at worst just disfigured.”
Chen Xing thought that for a girl, disfigurement is the biggest punishment for her! How in the world did Gu Lang use such a calm face to say such a terrible thing ah!
Chen Xing vaguely always felt that there was something contrary to Gu Lang, but when he only caught the end of the thread as he did not wait for him to sort out a clue, his inexplicable thoughts had just been interrupted by that little maid who went out to bring a helper in.
Watching them carry Chen Ling Er out in such a hurry, Chen Xing was still a little worried, “Although it was just an accident that she turned out like this, will the Chen family come after us for this?”
Gu Lang slightly raised his eyebrows, looking at the worried Chen Xing, faintly said, “Even without her, then won’t the Chen’s family come after us for trouble?”
Chen Xing suddenly choked. That’s right, ah! The Chen family is jealous of their recipe, that’s why they did this kind of underhand (evil back hand manipulator) way. Even if there is no appearance of Chen Ling Er, seeing the Chen family’s way of not letting go, then why should he get upset or worry over nothing?
But □□ way is impossible to □□, after all, with such a greedy nature of the Chen family, they even wanted a formula that has nothing to do with them, even if he gave the formula, they still wouldn’t be satisfied. In the future, there will only be endless blackmail, what they have to do now is to find ways to resist the Chen family.
Reporting to the authorities is not possible, after all, the Chen family did not kill and set fire to (murder and arson) and second, he did not take them by force, just let the following people not sell things to them. Is it against the law to engage in such unfair competition? It’s not illegal at all, and no one will be able to control it either!
The only way out is for them to get the ingredients from somewhere else, or else they won’t be able to keep their shop open, or else it is said that a clever housewife can’t cook a meal without rice — that you can’t make bricks without straw. Must be because the Chen family also see this point, so first they cut off the source of their food ingredients.
Just when Chen Xing was scratching his head thinking about where to get the ingredients, Qiu Wu hurriedly ran over and said towards him, “Little boss, there is an old hunter outside who said he wants to see you.”
“Old hunter?” Hearing this title, Chen Xing did not remember when he knew this old hunter ah?
Qiu Wu looked at Chen Xing’s performance, somehow distressed as he scratched his own head and helplessly say: “But, that old hunter said little boss, you yourself tell him that if he have prey, you ask him to bring it over, then let you look at it first, only then you can decide to take it or not. He then looks at it, whether he wants to sell it to other people or not.”
Hearing Qiu Wu say something like this, Chen Xing’s eyes immediately recalled that he had said something like this, but at that time he thought that it was just a man who had caught a rabbit by chance and then wanted to sell it for some money to improve his life so he did not think that he would actually be a hunter.
However, very soon, Chen Xing also thought of their restaurant’s current situation, and began to hesitate a little. That hesitation only lasted for a moment, but soon became firm. He first went to see what it was. If it really can’t, then he’ll buy it for them to eat only. Moreover, that old man’s stuff must not that expensive.
