Chapter 333: Chapter 333: Kiddo, are you shy? You must be afraid that we’re not close!
Su Wan: "I’m fine, not tired. It looks like Su Ni has a bit of a conscience. But it’s also to his benefit, after all, since the restaurant business is good, he gets a dividend every year. By the way, Grandpa, are you still in touch with Su Zhen?"
Su Zhen was his son.
Her father.
But he couldn’t seem to live a good life.
After behaving like that before, now he actually jumped to a rival’s restaurant to steal the Su Family’s business.
Grandfather Su frowned, "I don’t want to talk about him anymore."
Su Wan nodded, "Grandpa, I heard that Du Weiwei and Su Man broke out of prison. They might go find Su Zhen, we don’t know, but you should avoid contacting Su Zhen to stay out of trouble."
Du Weiwei and her daughter, wouldn’t let Su Zhen off.
That was the entanglement of love and hate between them.
Su Wan wouldn’t allow any of them to hurt her family members.
Grandfather Su was a smart man and naturally understood the pros and cons.
However, he felt helpless when he thought about his son Su Zhen, who was sprinting further and further down the path of self-destruction.
How did he end up having such a brainless and foolish son!
Su Wan chatted with her grandfather for a while and reassured him.
Then she declined Grandma Meira’s lunch invitation and took Xiaochen back onto the aircraft.
This time their destination was the Su Family’s restaurant in District 10.
Originally, opening a restaurant in District 10 wasn’t easy.
Then came Lucifer’s visit for a meal and the subsequent food poisoning incident that resulted in deaths.
For a while, many people feared going to the Su Family restaurant.
They were either afraid of being poisoned to death.
Or, afraid of the unfortunate chance of encountering the Star Thief.
Su Wan really disliked that Lucifer.
The last time they met, the situation was urgent, otherwise, she really wanted to chop off Lucifer’s octopus legs and make twenty or thirty dishes from them!
Indeed, the security in District 10 wasn’t good.
Su Wan, carrying her son, had just disembarked the aircraft when she heard someone whistling nearby.
A greasy man said, "Whoa, the little sister is really pretty, taking your brother out shopping?"
The people beside him laughed, "Are you stupid or what, which decent girl would bring her brother to a place like this for shopping?"
"Haha, little sister, you can hold on to big brother me instead."
Little Gu Chen was young and didn’t understand the meaning of some words.
But he didn’t like these people talking to Mommy like that!
The little one was angry!
These few people were very annoying to look at!
He really wanted to electrocute them into charred ashes!
Su Wan was also somewhat irked, and she had thought about releasing the Vermilion Bird already.
Just then, a man wearing a white suit with very handsome features walked over.
The man kicked each of the greasy men.
"Do you want to die? Get lost, all of you!"
The men were kicked away, hitting the wall, and after prying their companions off the wall, they cursed as they looked for a chance to seek revenge.
But when they saw clearly the face of the man in the white suit, they were stunned!
The next moment, they turned and ran!
Could they not run?
That was Chu Xunyang, the boss of the fighting arena!
Chu Xunyang turned around and with gentlemanly politeness bowed to Su Wan, "Chu Xunyang has the pleasure of meeting the Commander’s wife."
Su Wan looked at him, finding him familiar, and then combining it with his name.
She suddenly realized, "So you are that underground fighting arena boss, Chu Xunyang, who almost conned me out of my Star Coins?"
Chu Xunyang was half laughing and half crying, "It was all a misunderstanding, and in the end, we didn’t dare to take your Star Coins."
To change the subject, Chu Xunyang’s gaze fell on the adorable wolf-eared baby in Su Wan’s arms.
He exclaimed with surprise, "This must be the young master, right? He’s absolutely gorgeous!"
Chu Xunyang himself was a Charm Beast beauty.
And he loved all beautiful things.
So upon seeing the adorable wolf-eared baby, she couldn’t help herself and reached out to shake hands with the little one.
Then...
Zap zap.
Fifteen minutes later, Su Wan offered a less-than-sincere apology to Chu Xunyang sitting across from her.
"Boss Chu, my Xiaochen is a bit shy, so don’t be mad at him."
Chu Xunyang, whose hair had exploded from the shock and who was trying to smooth it down, didn’t know whether to cry or laugh.
Is this being shy?
More like fear of the unfamiliar, right!
But after all, that was the offspring of the great Commander Gu.
Plus, since it didn’t really harm Chu Xunyang, he wasn’t going to hold a grudge.
Chu Xunyang said, "Madam, you..."
Su Wan: "Call me Manager Su."
Being called madam always felt a bit odd.
Chu Xunyang immediately corrected himself, "Manager Su, you’re here about the recent trouble at the Su Family restaurant, aren’t you? Commander Gu has already taken care of that problem."
Su Wan took a look around the restaurant’s lobby.
It was designed to seat two hundred people but now didn’t even have twenty customers.
And that number included the three of them.
Chu Xunyang understood as soon as he saw where her gaze fell.
He said, "Those people were scared off and won’t feel comfortable coming to eat for a while, but don’t worry, Manager Su. I’ll make sure anyone who comes to our fighting arena eats here!"
Su Wan: "That’s not a permanent solution, but thank you anyway."
Chu Xunyang had other matters to attend to, so after greeting Su Wan and telling her to visit the fighting arena when she had time, he left.
At this moment, an exhausted-looking Du Yue arrived late.
"Sister Du, what happened to you?"
Du Yue managed a wry smile, "What else but the recent restaurant trouble?"
Not once, but twice!
First, Star Thieves made a mess.
The second time, someone died from eating there.
Each incident dealt a massive blow to the restaurant!
However, Du Yue’s gaze softened instantly when she saw the wolf-eared baby.
"Is this Little Gu Chen?"
Su Wan nodded with a smile, then whispered to her son: "This auntie is nice, no shocking!"
Little Gu Chen looked at his mom, speaking so righteously.
Then at Du Yue, who looked a bit stern but had gentle eyes.
His mouth curled up as he called out in a tender voice, "Auntie, hello."
Du Yue didn’t have children of her own yet, but that greeting melted her heart on the spot.
Du Yue: "Xiaochen is so well-behaved."
Su Wan said, "Don’t worry, Sister Du, I’ve figured out a way to solve this situation. But I am going to need a lot of manpower."
Upon hearing Su Wan had a plan, Du Yue’s spirits lifted immediately.
She said, "Needing people is not an issue. Just tell me how many you need and what other preparations are necessary—make a list for me, and I’ll take care of it."
Su Wan: "I’ll also need some special ingredients."
Looking around curiously, she asked, "How come I haven’t seen my uncle? I heard he was still in District Ten, right?"
Du Yue: "He’s in the dorm, stricken with despair. He thinks no one wants to eat his cooking, so he’s just wallowing in his room all day."
Su Wan was somewhat at a loss for words.
Picking up Little Gu Chen, she said, "Let’s go have a look."
Of course, the environment in District Ten couldn’t compare with the others.
And neither could the employees’ dormitory.
Of course, Su Teng didn’t mind that the living conditions were a bit worse.
What he found distressing was that no one was eating his food anymore!
What was the point of life then?
