Chapter 298 Want to keep a low profile, take a step back

As soon as these words came out, people inside and outside Ruyi Restaurant immediately aroused endless discussions.

Seeing that Su Jinxiu was silent, Yang Jiaojiao stepped forward and explained.

"This has always been a rule in the capital, anyone who wants to gain a firm foothold in the capital.

There is a competition every year in all walks of life.

If you can win the first place in the competition, you can be crowned the title of number one in the world or something.

Although it is a false name, it is also a good way to make a name for yourself.

Because it is fairly fair, it has always been sought after by people.

In previous years, the title of the number one restaurant in the world was exclusive to Zhenpin Pavilion.

Your restaurant has only been open for two months, so it stands to reason that this year's competition should have nothing to do with you.

Presumably, it is because your business is so good that someone is jealous! "

Su Jinxiu frowned slightly when she thought of Wang Shuncai's words last time.

"Sister Jiaojiao, if you don't participate in this competition, what harm will there be?"

Yang Jiaojiao thought for a while, then shook her head.

"It's not bad, but you won't be able to participate in the competition in the future.

Naturally, you can't rely on this competition to spread your reputation, but you have real skills.

If you don't want to, just say no. "

Su Jinxiu nodded and looked at the people outside.

"Thank you for your shopkeeper's kindness for me, I will not participate in this competition.

I have no intention of competing with your shopkeeper, I just want to guard my one-acre three-point land.

Please rest assured, your shopkeeper. "

What she said was clear enough, she didn't like the false name Wang Shuncai wanted.

Wang Shuncai didn't have to worry about it, he couldn't get along with her.

Seeing that Su Jinxiu didn't answer the post, the person outside felt a little bit embarrassed.

"It's true that a newborn calf is not afraid of tigers, but my shopkeeper still doesn't like shopkeeper Su when he praises him.

Then I can only wish Shopkeeper Su the best of luck..."

Su Jinxiu smiled faintly, and turned her head to go about her own business.

The man was treated so lightly, and he rushed away angrily.

Ruyi Restaurant did not affect its business because of this small disturbance.

The door is still full of guests, and there is a long queue in front of the door.

After a day's work, the accounts are settled.

It was already dark, Su Jinxiu packed up her things and prepared to go home.

As soon as he went out, he saw Li Mingchang waiting outside the door carrying a lantern.

Seeing her coming out, he stepped forward slowly.

"Jinxiu wants to go home? It's getting late, I'll see you off."

Su Jinxiu frowned, bypassed Li Mingchang and walked out.

"Need not……"

Li Mingchang did not give up, and quickly followed.

"A few days ago, I was not in the capital.

It was only after I came back that I found out that your mother was imprisoned in the prison of the Ministry of Criminal Justice.

Also I was late and couldn't help.

Mother, are you okay? "

Seeing that Su Jinxiu ignored him, Li Mingchang was not annoyed either.

"I heard that you didn't answer Zhenpin Pavilion's post today?

Jinxiu, you are not Miss Hou Fu now.

Being helpless in the capital, he secretly offended many people.

If there is no one to take care of it, there will be no good fruit in the future.

I've thought about it these days, we two are also childhood sweethearts growing up.

The age is also the same, I don't dislike your status, let's get married! "

The matter of Lin Zhaozhao being imprisoned was not publicized.

But in the capital, it is also an open secret.

Originally, he felt that Lin Zhaozhao was inferior to Su Jinxiu, but now he was accused of this again.

After weighing it, it is obvious that Su Jinxiu is more suitable to be his wife.

"You don't have to rush to reject me, think about it before you say it.

If you follow me, no one will dare to bully you in the capital from now on.

Your mother and the others can also live a peaceful life for a few days under my protection..."

Su Jinxiu was really annoyed by Li Mingchang's nagging, so she turned her head and walked into the alley.

The alley was dark and there was no one in it.

Li Mingchang rolled his eyes, and followed him without even thinking about it.

"I knew it, Jinxiu...

Ah, ah..."

After hearing a few shouts, Su Jinxiu clapped her hands and came out from inside.

With a soft snort, he walked away quickly.

"Follow me again, you won't be so lucky next time."

Li Mingchang got up from the ground with a bruised nose and swollen face, and the lantern went out.

He grinned and supported his waist, gritted his teeth.

"Damn Su Jinxiu, you are so ungrateful.

Wait, I will never let you go..."

Before he finished speaking, he felt a gust of cool wind hit his back.

Then, he was thrown to the ground.

I felt a sharp pain in my hands and feet, and it was because my hands and feet were taken off by someone.

The pain caused him to scream miserably, and then the man removed his jaw again.

He couldn't scream, he could only whine in horror.

It was pitch black, and he couldn't see who was doing it.

Just listen to that cold voice, warning.

"Tell me to see you appearing within ten steps of her again, I will definitely not take it lightly..."

The cold wind blows, and the figure disappears.

Li Mingchang was so frightened that his liver and gallbladder were torn apart, he finally crawled out of the alley.

He didn't dare to report to the official, so someone sent him back to the Hou's mansion.

The afterimage watched Li Mingchang return to the Hou's mansion, and then returned to Su Jinxiu's small courtyard, hiding in the darkness.

The prince left the capital for something, and left him to look after the shopkeeper Gu Su before leaving.

Although he didn't say it clearly, he was the prince's most trusted secret guard.

He knew what the prince meant, not only had to protect the safety of shopkeeper Su.

It still needs to be solved, those who covet Shopkeeper Su...

------------

After what happened that night, Li Mingchang was terrified.

After a few days of being raised at the house, he regained some energy.

His hands, feet and jaw have recovered, but he dare not go out.

Really, scared.

I don't know who is behind Su Jinxiu who dares to attack him?

Just thinking about it, I heard someone report from outside.

"Young Lord, Mrs. Zhou and Ms. Lin from Zhenyuan Hou's Mansion have come to visit you."

Li Mingchang gritted his teeth thinking of Lin Zhaozhao.

"Understood, I'll go out now."

After changing clothes and coming to the lobby, Li Mingchang saw his mother chatting happily with Zhou Yixiu.

Lin Zhaozhao was wearing a white dress, and sat obediently by the side.

Perhaps it was a bad time during this period, and the number of people has decreased a lot.

Looking at it, I feel a little more pitiful.

Li Mingchang stepped forward and saluted.

"I've met my mother, my wife, and sister Zhaozhao."

Zhou Yixiu looked at Li Mingchang with concern.

"God, sorry to see you, I haven't seen you for a long time.

Why did Mingchang lose so much weight?This disease made Ming Chang suffer a lot, right?
My family, Zhaozhao, heard that Mingchang was ill, and kept thinking about it.

This time, he specially brought the century-old ginseng from the mansion to nourish Ming Chang's body. "

As he spoke, Zhou Yixiu called Lin Zhaozhao who was beside him.

"Zhao Zhao..."

Lin Zhaozhao got up and walked to Li Mingchang.

With a gentle face, he asked.

"Brother Mingchang is feeling better? Brother Mingchang is holding this ginseng."

In front of Zhou Yixiu, Li Mingchang couldn't take her kindness seriously.

I can only nod my head and accept the things.

"Thank you, sister Zhaozhao, for your concern. Why has sister Zhaozhao lost weight recently?"

He pretended not to know about Lin Zhaozhao being imprisoned in the prison.

Lin Zhaozhao bit his lip and lowered his head.

"It's nothing, it's just that I was detained by my grandmother and copied Buddhist scriptures for a while.

I'm tired, that's why I've lightened up a bit..."
