บท 29: Grandpa Qian's Granddaughter

A hint of panic appeared on her face.

Although she had never dealt with Mo Cheng Feng face to face before, they were still considered to be in the same industry. MH Group had a few F&B establishments under him and GDB had a few cafes and restaurants.

If she could identify Mo Cheng Feng, then it would not be impossible for him to recognize her too.

If this man tell Qin Zhan who she was, then, she would be in deep trouble.

There was no way that anyone going to believe that she, the person who had authority in GDB would come to work in a small noodle stall to experience life.

Qin Zhan would be upset and he would not listen to her reasons.

Perhaps, if he was generous, he will not chase her with his cleaver and would ask her to leave nicely.

At this time, Gu Xin Ye realized that telling a lie and trying to keep it was very hard to do. Although the reason she had worked for Qin Zhan began with a misunderstanding, she was still guilty of lying to him.

However, at this time, Gu Xin Ye did not want to expose herself.

She had stayed and gone through this hardship for a week. She finally learned a little more about Qin Zhan and was very sure that she could grasp his weakness soon. The most important thing was to have him work for her restaurant.

The company that her father had build-up was still in another's hand.

She did not want to give up easily.

With those thoughts, Gu Xin Ye continued to lower her head, avoiding others from seeing her. Her hand clenched on the sponge in her hand, scrubbing the pot diligently.

Once in a while. Gu Xin Ye raised her head to peek at what was going on.

Qin Zhan, Li Jun Xuan, and that woman called Qian Lin continued to speak something in a low voice. Gu Xin Ye did not know what they were speaking but judging from the way they acted, it seemed that the three of them had known each other for a long time.

A slight frown appeared on her face. Gu Xin Ye thought that she should let Shen Yi Nian look into this matter for her.

Soon enough, the family of four went back into their vehicle and left with Li Jun Xuan.

A puzzled look appeared on her face as Gu Xin Ye watched them leave the area.

Didn't they come here to see Qin Zhan? Why are they leaving so quickly?

"Alright, let's clean up faster so we can go back home soon." Qin Zhan said as he returned. His eyes swept the area and he picked up a big stockpot that Gu Xin Ye had cleaned up earlier and placed it on the side.

"Little Uncle, who are those people?" Luo Qi asked.

"My friends."

"I've never seen them before." Luo Qi raised a brow as she gave her uncle a lookover. The way she was looking at Qin Zhan was as if she did not believe his words.

"They're staying in the city. Of course, you haven't seen them before," Qin Zhan said. "That girl is Grandpa Qian's granddaughter. You should have heard about her."

The girl's mouth formed a large 'O'. Grandpa Qian often spoke about his granddaughter and her great-grandchildren. As Luo Qi had come to the stall to help Grandpa Chen in the past, she had often heard about Grandpa Qian's granddaughter.

Grandpa Qian's granddaughter had a certain reputation in Z Town as a little gangster. Previously, Luo Qi had heard Grandpa Chen mention how Grandpa Qian's granddaughter and Uncle Li's son had created havoc and fought some people in town.

Rumor has it that Grandpa Qian had to drag her granddaughter to the police station to discipline her after she had led a few of her friends to fight.

Luo Qi was starting to believe that it was nothing but slander.

Grandpa Qian's granddaughter seemed too gentle to be a gangster.

Luo Qi snapped out of her trance and saw that her little uncle was staring in the direction where the vehicle had left.

"Oh." Luo Qi dragged her tone. There was a teasing look on Luo Qi's gaze as she looked at her uncle. "Uncle, It couldn't be that you had a crush on that big sister in the past, right?"

Qin Zhan let out a low chuckle. "You called me uncle but addressed that woman as big sister? Luo Qi, aren't you messing up with the seniority?"

Luo Qi clicked her tongue. Although she felt that the woman was a little too young, it seemed that she was married and had two kids. Moreover, the daughter looked a little older.

"What are you thinking about?" Qin Zhan flicked on the girl's forehead, realizing that the girl's mind had drifted somewhere else.

Luo Qi looked at her uncle with concern. "Uncle, I'm very worried about you. You see, even your friend is married with kids. What about you? You don't even have a girlfriend."

Qin Zhan stretched his hand and pinched at the girl's cheek until the girl begged him to let go. "If I have a girlfriend, will I have time to look for you and your brother?" He let out a snort and walked to another side to clean up. "Stop thinking too much. Help me clean up quickly. I still have a few matters to attend to.

Gu Xin Ye listened to the uncle and niece's conversation quietly.

Once everything was cleaned up, she took her pay and head back to Auntie Li's B&B. She took a shower and pounded her shoulder as she texted Shen Yi Nian and ask for her favor.

Her body was still aching after working too hard. Gu Xin Ye was still wondering whether she should head to the west side of the city on Monday and had another spa session.

As the sky almost turned dark, Gu Xin Ye planned to head out to find something for dinner. However, she ran into Auntie Li in the lobby.

"Miss Gu, are you heading out for dinner?"

Gu Xin Ye flashed her a smile. "Mhmm..."

"If you don't mind, you can stay around and have dinner here. Coincidentally, I cooked some extra food. It would be enough for everyone to eat together."

Gu Xin Ye could smell the delicious food that Auntie Li cooked. She was a little tired after working on the weekend shift in the noodle stall. Thinking about the work pile that she still had to look at, Gu Xin Ye quickly agreed. Her plan was to eat quickly, look at her documents, and go to bed early.

However, as she walked into the dining area, she found that Qin Zhan, Li Jun Xuan, and Mo Cheng Feng's wife were seated together at a table.

Her movement halted. Gu Xin Ye wondered if she should walk in or leave.
