Chapter 98 - Beast
The Rough Hunter s Little Lucky Wife
Zhao Zhan let go of Yue Jiaojiao and turned her around with a hand on her shoulder. âIs the person next door here to cause trouble again?â He asked, straight to the point.
âI only found out today that Lin Yunxu is the one living next door,â Yue Jiaojiao told him what had happened during the day. âYouâll find out when you go next door.â
Zhao Zhan carefully listened to her instructions.
âZhao Zhan, be careful. Someone touched the door of our storage room today. He must have gotten someone to steal the soybeans.â
Zhao Zhan was engulfed in anger. He didnât expect this Lin guy to chase them all the way here.
He had thought that by tying Fang Tianliu to his side, he could prevent him from doing anything, but he didnât expect that the other party was determined to get this recipe.
âJiaojiao, next time you encounter something like this, donât say anything. Just leave and wait for me to come back. Iâm afraid youâll be in danger.â
Jiaojiao was extraordinarily clever and cunning. However, no matter how powerful she was, in his heart, the apple of his eye would always be the one who needed to be cherished and protected.
âIâll make dinner first. After weâre done eating, you can take a walk in the yard. Iâll heat up the bath water, and you can wash up and lie down. Iâll go next door. Theyâre the ones who need our help now, so let them wait.â
Yue Jiaojiao giggled as she looked at Zhao Zhan.
Perhaps it was because of her influence, the originally honest and rough man had now learned to use some tricks.
However, Yue Jiaojiao didnât mind. In any case, she would always be the center of Zhao Zhanâs attention.
When Lin Yunxu heard the commotion next door, he waited in the courtyard patiently. There was news from Shang that he had never seen such a thing even in the western regions before.
In other words, even if he wanted the recipe, he couldnât steal or snatch it. He didnât know the raw materials or the method. All the conspiracies behind the scenes wouldnât work. He could only communicate with the other party directly.
He couldnât give up now.
What Zhao Zhan had done to him in Huai County had greatly damaged his reputation in Kelai Xiang, and his business had taken a dive.
If he wanted to save the situation, the only way was to cooperate with Zhao Zhan.
It was not until the moon was high in the sky and Lin Yunxu was so sleepy that his eyes were bloodshot that Shuqin, who was dozing off by the door, heard a knock.
âHeâs here.â
âHurry up and open the door.â
Lin Yunxu gulped down a cup of strong tea to lift his spirits.
âLin,â Zhao Zhan entered the courtyard and stopped walking towards the room. He said coldly, âCan we talk in the courtyard? The room is too small, and Iâm worried that I canât fully display my abilities.â
Although Lin Yunxu was a little suspicious of what Zhao Zhan meant by displaying his abilities, he assumed it was because the other party had never been educated. Thus, he lifted his robe and strolled into the courtyard. The corners of his lips curled up into a smug smile. âOf course, I can. Since you said so-â
He was halfway through his words when he received a heavy punch!
Lin Yunxu stumbled backward and fell to the ground. Zhao Zhan quickly walked up to him, grabbed him by the collar, and kicked him to the side. âIâm sorry. I just came out of the mountains and thought you were some kind of animal, so I accidentally hit you. Now we can talk about the tofu recipe.â
Lin Yunxu clutched his chest and coughed heavily. He leaned against the wall and couldnât move for a while.
âZhao Zhan! Youâ¦â
as soon as he opened his mouth, his ribs ached from the punch, as if it was being torn apart.
Zhao Zhan didnât move. His expression was hidden in the dark, âArenât you being too stingy? Iâve already said that my eyes were playing tricks on me. â
He had bullied his lover!
If he didnât beat him to death, that would be considered merciful!
