Chapter 151.3 – Nitpicking
“Call your boss out for me. If your boss doesn’t give me an explanation for this, I’m not going to let this go!” Bao Xin Chun put her hands on her hips in a very imposing manner as if she was the victim in all of this.
Shopkeeper Liu wanted to sneer at them, but he didn’t show it on his face. “Mrs. Zhuo, people who have nothing to hide do not have to beat around the bush, so I will speak frankly, I know that you two have always held a grudge over the fact that Boss Sun sold this teahouse to the owner of the An Family Restaurant and not to you, but there is no need for you to resort to such lame tricks, right? Just now, I clearly saw you put the cockroach in the food yourself.”
His words were quite brilliant. First, he brought up the old grievances between these two and the previous owner of the restaurant, and then he told the truth of what he saw. Although there were still some people who doubted his words, there were also some people who wore an expression of sudden realization.

Bao Xin Chun was not anxious. Instead, she sneered and said, “What a joke. What proof do you have that we were the ones who put the cockroach in the food? Not to mention that you are the shopkeeper of the An Family Restaurant, of course you would say that in order to protect the restaurant. In short, if you do not give us a satisfactory answer to this matter, we will not let it go!”
Shopkeeper Liu frowned deeply. In fact, he should’ve said something as soon as he saw Zhuo Gao Ming put the cockroach in the food, but he didn’t expect the two troublemakers to move so fast. Before he could act, they already started yelling, so he really didn’t have any proof.
The waiter walked up to Shopkeeper Liu and whispered, “Shopkeeper Liu, some people already believe them. If this matter cannot be resolved, it will affect the restaurant’s reputation. How about I go and get the boss?”
“That’s the only thing we can do.”
Shopkeeper Liu nodded helplessly.
The waiter immediately turned around and ran up to the second floor.
This was the grand opening day of the restaurant. An Zi Ran and Fu Wu Tian sat in a private room on the second floor, but the private rooms were soundproof, so they didn’t hear what happened downstairs.
After a while, the two of them appeared at the top of the stairs.
When the customers heard the sound, they subconsciously turned around and looked towards the stairs. At a glance they saw two people with temperaments like a dragon and a phoenix, one was tanned and handsome, and one was fair and elegant. Standing together, they did not look out of sorts at all. People with temperaments like them were usually not some ordinary people.
Amidst all the people in the lobby, there was one person who showed a surprised expression when he saw the two men at the stairs.
This person was Pang Zhong.
Pang Zhong was the Minister of Ministry of Officials. He has met Fu Wu Tian before a long time ago. For an outstanding man like Fu Wu Tian, even if you’ve only met him once, you would still remember him long after.

Wan Xi Chuan seldom appeared in public, so he has never met Fu Wu Tian or An Zi Ran before, but he soon noticed something strange about his old friend.
“You know them?”
Pang Zhong nodded, “I should have realized this sooner, such sharp and majestic handwriting can only belong to him. I didn’t expect him to be the owner of this restaurant.”
When Wan Xi Chuan saw his old friend keeping him on tenterhooks, he immediately felt anxious, “Exactly who are they?”
“The youngster next to him is his wife.” Pang Zhong gave his friend a meaningful look.
Wan Xi Chuan was stumped for a moment, but then he quickly realized what his old friend was getting at. After all, who didn’t know about the God of War’s marriage? He actually dared to openly take a man as his wife. So this person must be the God of War, right?
“This…”
Wan Xi Chuan was suddenly speechless.
Pan Zong stroked his white-streaked beard and sighed, “If my guess is correct, the characters on the restaurant’s name plaque and the furniture screen must be the junwang’s calligraphy. Only he can write such characters.”

Wan Xi Chuan didn’t speak any more, but looked thoughtfully at the two men who came down from upstairs.
Pang Zhong has been with his old friend for many years, and he could see through his mind at a glance. He said with a smile, “You can stop what you’re thinking right now. The junwang is not someone you can easily take as a disciple.”
Wan Xi Chuang sighed, “I know, that person’s ability is comparable to mine. He must have his own personal teacher, there’s no place for me, but… you’re not planning to help them out and have them owe you a favor?”
Pang Zhong smiled.
“Let’s sit back and watch first.”
