Transmigration: The Little Chef Calls The Shots-Chapter 793 - 100 Family Split_1

Every time she recalled what she had grabbed that day, Lin Yuan’s little face couldn’t help but turn bright red. However, whenever she thought of how someone jumped sky high as if stepping on a landmine, she couldn’t help but laugh. Who would have thought that Xia Zheng, who seemed so frivolous on ordinary days, could actually be so adorable when faced with such an incident, just like a pure-hearted little boy.

Thinking back, she couldn’t really blame herself for what happened at that time. She had genuinely felt uncomfortable and didn’t think in that direction at all. But, when she had touched that spot, she really regretted it, so much so that she wished she could turn back time.

Fortunately, these past few days, Xia Zheng hadn’t been loitering in front of her, which spared her greater embarrassment.

Actually, Xia Zheng had been scared silly these past few days, and to make matters worse, that very night he’d dreamed of marrying Lin Yuan. Getting married was his greatest wish for the past year.

But after the wedding, he’d even dreamed of their wedding night. Lin Yuan’s rosy little lips, her slender neck, the lotus-root-like arms, and the soft, tender...

Slap slap!

Xia Zheng gave himself a mental shake and slapped his own face twice, muttering lowly, "Bastard! Lewd! How can your thoughts be so dirty? How can you desecrate Yuanyuan like that? Aren’t you going to go back? If you don’t behave, I... I’ll just cut you off!"

Glaring at a certain exuberant little thing, Xia Zheng was in turmoil. No matter if he tried to suppress it with his will or press it down with his hand, he couldn’t make it submit.

Left with no other option, Xia Zheng could only rush into the tub for a cold bath to settle matters.

After a cold shower, Xia Zheng actually felt a bit listless, sitting idly in the lobby. Although his body was facing the entrance, his eyes kept wandering towards Lin Yuan’s room.

When Liuzi came back excitedly, he saw his Young Master staring at someone’s tightly shut door with a face full of longing and frustration.

Sniggering, Liuzi approached Xia Zheng’s ear and said slyly, "Boss, do you want to see the Boss Lady? Then just go, why are you scaring yourself like this?"

Xia Zheng, who was distracted, jumped when Liuzi suddenly came close, and after patting his chest, he slapped Liuzi on the forehead, "Who says I’m scared? When have I ever been afraid? Huh? Stop making up stories about me!"

"Yes, yes, yes. Boss, you’re bold and courageous, afraid of nothing!" Liuzi said, nodding and bowing.

"Nonsense! What bold and courageous!" Xia Zheng huffed and rolled his eyes at Liuzi.

Then changing his mind, he asked, "Did you, did you just get back?"

Liuzi nodded vigorously, "Yes, the Boss Lady asked me to inquire about the Meng family, and I’ve found out everything. Here I am, rushing back to report to the Boss Lady."

"Mhm," Xia Zheng nodded, then, with a crooked smile, said, "Let’s go, I want to listen too, to see what this girl is actually up to."

Saying so, a certain person eagerly ran upstairs.

Liuzi’s mouth twitched, still denying he was scared, yet seeking an excuse even just to see her, how strange!

As Xia Zheng and Liuzi knocked on the door, Lin Yuan was blushing with shame as she thought about her own embarrassing actions. When she opened the door and unexpectedly saw Xia Zheng, her face turned even redder, like a well-boiled shrimp.

Xia Zheng coughed to cover his awkwardness, his voice somewhat stammering, "Um, Liuzi has found out some news, I, I just came to check."

Lin Yuan hung her head, twisting to make room, "Oh, come in."

"Okay." Xia Zheng pursed his lips, coughed again, and deliberately stepped back to avoid touching Lin Yuan as they passed by.

Liuzi saw the abnormality in both of them, puzzled and curious, when had these two become so modest? Where was that scheming duo that used to join forces in deceiving people?

While still wondering, Liuzi’s forehead was suddenly slapped by Xia Zheng, "Why are you spacing out? Hurry up and tell us what you heard."

Liuzi rubbed his forehead, nodding repeatedly, while secretly curling his lips. This habit of the Boss constantly slapping him on the forehead wasn’t a good one.

Even so, Liuzi relayed all the information he had gathered in great detail.

The Meng Family Wine House might have seemed prosperous on the surface, but behind closed doors, things were quite murky. In Zhuma Town, it wasn’t just the Meng family selling liquor; there were many others, and of course, some did even better business. But gradually, the other wine houses started having trouble, some produced counterfeit liquor, others had issues with their product that led to pain, be it stomachaches or headaches for their customers. In just a few years, they all had to shut down their businesses.
