Dressed as a vicious stepmother, farming and raising cubs

Chapter 77 "Discovering the Truth"

But Song Yao still stayed where she was, looking at the door of the house in a daze for a long time, then sighed softly, turned around and prepared to go back the way she came.

It was at this moment that Su Liu stood up and Song Yao was frightened.

"S-Sister Su, why are you here?"

After Song Yao saw the person in front of her clearly, her expression became more flustered, and she started to stutter a bit when speaking.

Su Liu crossed his arms and curled his lips somewhat dissatisfiedly:

"If I hadn't come, I wouldn't have known you were doing this kind of thing secretly. Why didn't you discuss it with me?"

Hearing this, Song Yao lowered her head guiltily, looking like she was about to cry:
  "I'm sorry, Yaoyao knows I was wrong!"

Seeing her like this, Su Liu couldn't bear to blame her and just sighed helplessly.

She could actually guess why Song Yao didn't dare to tell her, because when he bought her, there was a condition that the original parents could not contact her again.

But at that time, she didn't know that she actually had such a young sister.

"Okay, let's go back to Xichun Tower first." Su Liu softened his expression, gently took Song Yao's hand, and walked back on the road.

Along the way, she could feel a lot of sweat on her palms, and she was obviously very worried.

Back at Xichun Tower, the lights were still on.

Just when Song Yao was surprised, Su Liu stepped forward and pushed the door open.

In the lobby, Xiao Shun and Peng Dahai were sitting at a table. Because Su Liu had discussed it with these two people when he suspected that Song Yao was a spy, they were also waiting for news.

Facing the questioning gazes of the two people, Su Liu shook his head and said three words lightly:
  "Not her."

Then, she brought Song Yao to the two of them and explained in detail what happened today.

After hearing this, the other two people also widened their eyes in surprise.

"I'm sorry! I'm sorry! I dragged everyone down, but I really didn't steal the formula."

After learning that she was the number one suspect of the "ghost", Song Yao became even more panicked and apologized to several people repeatedly.

"It's not important." Su Liu shook his head and said, "What I'm angry about is, why don't you discuss this situation with me!"

Peng Dahai on the side also nodded and said seriously:

"Yes, you are a little girl, so it is very dangerous at night."

Hearing what the two said, Song Yao was stunned, unable to react, and stared at them blankly.

"So, let Xiao Shun do this kind of work from now on." Su Liu finally couldn't help but smile and winked at her.

Xiao Shun, who was on the side, also hurriedly patted his chest and said loudly:

"Just leave it to me!"

Finally, Peng Dahai added:
  "Your sister is still young and needs to eat nutritious food. From now on, I will make it specially for her. What do you mean by picking up the leftovers from the guests?"

This sudden change caught Song Yao off guard. Perhaps she hadn't felt so much kindness in a long time, and she felt so warm that she wanted to shed tears.

"Sister Su, Brother Xiaoshun, and Master Peng, thank you."

She quickly thanked several people, but when she said the first sentence, she felt choked and tears fell down.

"Oh, don't cry." Su Liu quickly took out the handkerchief and went to help her wipe away her tears.

After Song Yao's mood stabilized, she spoke again: "Actually, I plan to invite your sister to come to Xichun Tower to work together when she grows up."

Su Liu thought more comprehensively than others. She had thought about giving some money to her sister before, but she gave up considering that she was still too young and could easily be discovered by her parents.

Because she knew very well that Song Yao's parents were unreliable, and when her sister grew up, she might not be able to escape the fate of being sold.

But if you stay and work in Xichun Tower, at least you will be free and you can still have some income.

Song Yao obviously understood what she meant, and nodded gratefully:
  "That couldn't be better. Let me first thank my sister for taking her in!"

"You're welcome. We'll find a way together then and we'll definitely get your sister out." Su Liu put a hand on her shoulder, quite cheering.

This insider incident unexpectedly ended in a peaceful atmosphere.

But the matter of secretly learning dishes from Yuelaiju still needs to be solved. Since there are no problems with internal people, we can only consider it from outsiders.

So, Su Liu stayed in Xichun Tower all day these days, patrolling around, pretending to ask about the taste, but in fact silently observing every visitor.

Once, as soon as she came down from the second floor, she bumped into a man smelling of alcohol.

"Sorry, sorry, I have to go to the latrine."

The man apologized to her sheepishly. He was a man in his early thirties with a big belly. The strong and pungent smell of alcohol could be smelled as soon as he got closer.

"It's okay." Su Liu waved his hand and turned sideways to let him pass first.

However, after the man passed by her, she suddenly realized that the direction he was going was not the latrine.

She turned around and looked over. The direction the man was going was clearly...the kitchen.

Thinking back carefully, it seemed that this person was among the guests who came to Xichun Tower in the past few days, and he was always very drunk.

However, when they first collided, he only smelled of alcohol on his body, but not in his mouth.

Moreover, although this person smelled of alcohol, he did not have the stumbling behavior of a drunk person at all. He looked just like an ordinary person.

Su Liu couldn't help but wonder if he had just spilled wine on his body to create the illusion of being drunk, but in fact he was completely sober.

Thinking of this, she quickly followed.

The man sneaked around the backyard and finally stopped in front of a window. It was obvious that he was very familiar with the terrain of Xichun Tower.

Su Liu also recognized it, it was the window of the kitchen.

The man poked a small hole in the window, squinted one eye, and looked inside. At the same time, he took out a pamphlet from his arms.

As he watched, he was holding a pen and writing something down in the booklet. He didn't look drunk at all.

At this point, Su Liu finally understood how the formula was leaked.

This man came to his shop every day. First, he used his drunkenness to make others relax their vigilance. Then he secretly came to the kitchen and watched Peng Dahai cooking.

Su Liu guessed that he should just record the ingredients that he recognized, but he didn't recognize the ones she bought from the military supply market, so the dishes copied by Yuelaiju always lacked one or two ingredients.

Thinking of this, Su Liu couldn't help but marvel in his heart that Jiang was so old that he could think of such a way to sneak into his guests.

The man was concentrating on observing the situation in the kitchen, and did not notice that someone was approaching step by step behind him.

"Hey, man, what are you doing?"
