I just couldn’t log in to Qidian, so I uploaded it late. Sorry, but you still have to give me favorites, clicks, and recommendations, hehehe!
This was the first time that Zhao Hai had spoken to meg in such a teasing tone. She was stunned for a moment, then blushed and said, ” “The young master is making fun of me.”
Zhao Hai chuckled, but he was secretly relieved. Although he was an otaku and had never been in a relationship, he was not a fool. He realized that meg seemed to have a good impression of him, and after spending so much time with her, he had a good impression of her too. The reason why he said that today was to see her reaction. If she wasn’t angry, it meant that she really had a good impression of him. He was not wrong.
It was the first time that blockhead and the others had heard Zhao Hai say that about meg. They looked at each other in confusion, but they didn’t say anything.
Mei GE’s face was red, but she was secretly happy. Her heart had long been tied to Zhao Hai. However, Zhao Hai had always been indifferent, so she didn’t dare to show her feelings. She could only silently care for Zhao Hai behind his back.
Although Zhao Hai’s words today were nothing special, they made meg very happy because Zhao Hai was also praising her. Being praised by the person she liked, even if it was in such a joking tone, it still made this young girl’s heart beat wildly.
Zhao Hai didn’t tease her too much. He knew that she was shy, and if he said anything more, she might run away in embarrassment. Besides, he didn’t want to be a smooth-tongued person. That wasn’t his character.
After chatting with the three of them for a while, Zhao Hai took meg out of the medium when he felt that it was about time. Laura had seen meg before, and if she didn’t see her today, she would be suspicious. So, Zhao Hai still took meg out of the medium, while blockhead and the others stayed in the medium to take care of the slaves. After meg had cooked, she gave them some food.
When Laura and Nier arrived at the restaurant, Zhao Hai and the others were already there waiting for them. Laura said to Zhao Hai, ” &Quot; I’ve made you wait for a long time, Sir. I was a little tired from the car ride just now, so I fell asleep without realizing it. &Quot;
Zhao Hai smiled, ” it’s fine. I just arrived. Please take a seat, Ms. Laura. Make yourself at home. &Quot; &Quot; yes, ” Lola replied and sat down.
At this time, Merlin and meg had also brought in the dishes they had prepared. Green had already sat down beside Zhao Hai. Today’s meal was mainly bread. There were many dishes, but most of them were the same as what Laura had eaten before.
Laura was enjoying her meal. These dishes could only be eaten at Zhao Hai’s restaurant. She would not be able to eat them at home, not only because she did not have the ingredients, but also because she did not know how to cook.
Laura didn’t know if she was hallucinating, but she felt that Zhao Hai’s maidservant was looking at her with hostility. Zhao Hai’s cook was also looking at her with something that she couldn’t explain, making her feel uncomfortable.
Because of this feeling, Laura left after eating. She didn’t understand why Zhao Hai’s people became like this. What on earth happened?
Laura frowned as she sat in the trunk of the car. She was puzzled. Nicole looked at Laura and laughed.”Miss, did you notice? Sir’s maid seems to be very hostile towards you.”
Laura was stunned. She turned to look at Nier and said, ” “You can tell too? I thought it was my imagination. Did I offend a good maid? Or did I do something that made you unhappy?”
“Miss, you’re really stupid. Did you do something wrong? didn’t you see the way that maid looked at Sir?” Even I can tell that she’s obviously treating you as a love rival. Moreover, master’s cook keeps looking at miss, and even at miss’s butt from time to time. I’ve heard people say that there’s a saying in the people that’s called “a big butt is good for giving birth.” Hehe, I’m afraid that the cook is looking at miss to see if she’s good for giving birth.”
Laura was stunned for a moment before she cursed,”stupid girl, you’re always talking nonsense. Are you in love?” It seems like I need to find someone to marry you off to.”
Ni ‘er smiled. &Quot; don’t be angry, miss. I’m telling the truth. You look like you’re very easy to give birth. &Quot; After saying that, she giggled.
However, Laura’s heart was a little strange. She was a bystander. When she saw the way meg and Merlin looked at her, she didn’t think much of it. She just thought that she had done something wrong to provoke Zhao Hai. Now that she heard what Nicole said and recalled the way meg and Merlin looked at her, it was really like what Nicole had said.
Nicole’s mind was pure, so she could get along with animals. Similarly, she was also very sensitive to the changes in a person’s mind, so she could tell why Meg and Merlin were looking at Laura from time to time.
Laura, on the other hand, fell into deep thought. She really didn’t know if it was her own misunderstanding that meg saw her as a love rival, or if it was because of Zhao Hai.
If it was just a misunderstanding, then it would be fine. But if it was because of Zhao Hai, then things would be very serious. That meant that Zhao haiseng had shown that he liked her in front of meg and the others.
Thinking of this, Laura’s face couldn’t help but turn red. She should have been distressed by Zhao Hai’s thoughts. However, she found that she wasn’t distressed at all. Instead, she felt embarrassed and a little happy.
Laura was a very calm person. Kun had taught her to be calm when she was in her right mind. It was the most basic requirement of a businessman.
She soon realized that her emotions were not right, and she immediately began to reflect on it. As a result, she became more and more dizzy. In the end, she thought until her head was dizzy, but she still couldn’t figure it out. In the end, she could only give up and stop thinking about it. However, this incident had planted a seed in her mood.
When she returned home, kun Zheng had also returned and was drinking tea in the study room. The moment Laura entered the study room, she beckoned to the servants and whispered to kun Zheng, ” “Grandpa kun Zheng, how is it?”
Kun Zheng smiled. &Quot; it’s a success. Ivan has some power in his hands, and it’s not a small one at that. Most of the elders in the Versailles family are his subordinates. He had asked the elders to hide from him because he wanted an opportunity. Now, the opportunity has come. Most importantly, you can’t imagine who is behind him. One of the two guardians of the Versailles family, the primordial chaos Sword Saint, is Ivan’s great-grandfather. &Quot;
Laura was dazed for a moment, then she was overjoyed. &Quot; that’s great! With such a backing, things will be even easier. By the way, the primordial Sword Saint is Ivan’s great-grandfather, so why didn’t he help when Ivan was being controlled? ” Also, even if Ivan knows about this, don’t Caesar and the other elders know about it?”
“What kind of person is a primordial chaos Sword Saint?” kun Zheng asked with a smile. Even if he knew, he wouldn’t care. This was also a training for Ivan. Without this training, he wouldn’t be able to become a qualified patriarch. In addition, the Versailles family had a rule that only the patriarch could see the information of the family’s Guardian. No one else was allowed to see it. Therefore, Caesar and the others didn’t know the identity of the primordial Sword Saint. It should be known that the primordial Sword Saint had entered level 9 before Boff, a few decades earlier. The only person who knows his identity is Ivan.”
Laura stood up happily and kept walking on the ground. While walking, she said excitedly, ” “That’s great. With such strength, this matter will definitely be successful. Grandpa kun Zheng, what is Grand Duke Yi Wan going to do?”
Kun Zheng smiled. &Quot; &Quot; there’s nothing we can do. We’ll just let them play their game. If the big families want to overthrow the great elder, they’ll have to raise the price of food. If the great elder can’t solve this problem, he’ll have to step down. However, if they want to raise the price of food, they’ll have to go through us first. So, in the next few days, they might come to us and have a showdown with us or even threaten us. We can use this opportunity to ask Mr. Zhao Hai to cooperate and raise the price of food first. Then, they will force the first elder to step down, and Ivan will step out first. With our cooperation, the food prices will fall immediately. With the help of the primordial Sword Saint, Ivan will be the head of the family. However, we still need some food. You know, there will be a lot of people buying food during the ups and downs of the food prices, so we need to prepare more food, even if we have to buy it at a high price or sell it at a low price.”
Laura smiled and said, ” this is also a coincidence. When I went to Sir’s place this time, Sir told me that he had more than a million catties of food in his hands. As long as we use it, we can go and get it at any time. Hehe, could it be that Sir had thought of this long ago? ”
Kun Zheng was stunned. He looked at Laura in confusion and asked, ” “Miss, you’re saying that in addition to the normal food supply, Sir can take out another million pounds of food?”
Lola shook her head and said, ” I’m afraid it’s more than that. Sir said that he still has more than one million catties. I don’t know how much more it is, but I think it won’t be less. There should be at least one and a half million catties. &Quot;
Kun Zheng was stunned. &Quot; taking out more than a million catties of grain at once. And it’s on the basis of a daily supply of 350000 catties. How many territories are there? ”
Laura forced a smile. She also wanted to know the answer to this question, but she knew that she couldn’t ask. Zhao Hai had too many secrets that she couldn’t know. She had never even seen Zhao Hai’s face, let alone ask about it.
After a while, kun Zheng heaved a long sigh and said, ” &Quot; no matter what, now that we have the food, how about this? after the people from the big trading companies come to find us, you will immediately go to Sir’s place and explain the matter to him. Please help us with this. &Quot;
Lola nodded and said, ” okay, I will. I can see that you don’t know much about the Versailles family. However, these things don’t matter to you. I think you will help me. &Quot;
Kun Zheng nodded and turned to look out the window. &Quot; “As long as we succeed this time, the Versailles Duchy will be ours.”
Laura was also looking out of the window with bright eyes and an excited expression.
