The custor nodded in agreent as Gu Zi’s tone took on a serious note. She stated solemnly, “I am deeply grateful for your informing of this matter. As a partner in this shop, I assure you all that we only use legitimate ingredients for our braised at. We absolutely do not add any substances like poppy flowers to deceive our custors’ taste buds.”

Lin Cheng and Lin Hun entered, carrying a box of at. Upon hearing Gu Zi’s words, they set the box down. Lin Cheng’s expression turned somber as he began, “Actually, we ca here to discuss this very matter. Lin Hun, you tell her.”

Lin Hun wiped the sweat off his forehead with the back of his hand, his voice filled with indignation. “Sister-in-law, I ran into one of my old followers today when I left Little Lin Village. The guy was spouting nonsense, claiming that our braised at shop uses poppy flowers to enhance the flavor of our at. I punched him right then and there, nearly flattening him.”

After hearing this, Gu Zi understood. It seed that the rumor had been circulating for a while now. Most likely, the entire town and village had heard it. However, it appeared that no one knew the source of the rumor. For now, they could only discuss with his sister-in-law and take precautions.

Gu Zi made up his mind, maintaining a calm deanor. “Alright, I understand. By the way, why are you delivering at now?”

As Gu Zi made way for them, Lin Cheng and Lin Hun carried the at inside. Upon their return, Lin Cheng began to explain while deep in thought, “Su Shen specifically asked us to deliver it. This batch won’t be charged. He said it’s a token of his appreciation as your husband and a partner in the shop.”

Lin Cheng spoke slowly, recalling the conversation he had with Su Shen, who had just finished dealing with so docunts at the ti. Su Shen’s habitual stern expression made Lin Cheng sowhat nervous, causing his mory of the conversation to be a bit shaky.

He didn’t understand why, despite knowing that Su Shen took special care of him because of Gu Zi, Lin Cheng always felt a cold aloofness and domineering aura from his brother-in-law. This made him slightly nervous every ti he saw him.

Deep down, he couldn’t simply regard him as his brother-in-law. He was constantly reminded that his brother-in-law was also his boss. This made him extrely nervous around Su Shen. At first, he couldn’t understand how his sister managed to get along with her husband. Wasn’t she afraid of Su Shen?

However, Lin Cheng’s impression of Su Shen had changed over ti. Su Shen was not a cold-hearted person; he was just not accustod to showing his emotions.

On the contrary, he was more considerate than most people and genuinely cared for his sister. Apart from being older than his wife, he was practically flawless as a husband.

Upon hearing this, Gu Zi felt a ripple in her heart. She knew that her husband was deliberately trying to make her feel cherished. This feeling was very important to a woman. Once she felt it, it was enough to make her happy for the entire day.

Just as Gu Zi was about to suggest they all return to the village in the delivery truck, a series of loud shouts ca from outside, sounding like a pig being slaughtered, attracting everyone’s attention.

Li Hua looked outside and hurriedly said, “That sounds like Gui Hua. She’s shouting so loudly, sothing must have happened. I’ll go check it out.”

As soon as Li Hua left, Lin Cheng followed. Gu Zi, holding Su Le, also went out, calling Lin Hun to join them. Since there were still people watching the shop, they all decided to see what had happened. If nothing was wrong, that would be best. If sothing had happened, they wouldn’t need to go back and find more help.

As they reached the shop entrance, they could clearly hear Gui Hua’s cries, which were both pitiful and sowhat amusing. “Help! Is there anyone who can save ? I fell from upstairs. Oh, my leg hurts so much. Please save . There’s a reward for the one who helps !”

They quickened their pace and arrived under the loft inside Gui Hua’s shop. There, they found Gui Hua lying on the ground, wailing. Her clothes were wet near her shoulder, and several broken soda bottles were scattered nearby. It seed she had slipped and fallen from the loft stairs while carrying the soda. Her condition looked quite serious, as if she had broken a bone.

Li Hua was about to help her up when Gu Zi quickly stopped her. “Don’t move her yet. We don’t know her condition. Gui Hua, are you feeling dizzy? Can you move the leg you fell on? Try to move it yourself.”
