Chapter 174: Boss

Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations

It started to get lively again. They didn’t know what Shen Tianci said again, but it made Ning Anhui chase after him to beat him up. The two of them felt that they had stayed in the house for too long and decided to find an opportunity to talk about it in detail next time. After all, whether it was about the dam or the strict laws, it wasn’t something that could be explained in a few words.

However, County Magistrate Shen found that the Third Prince did not follow him after a few steps, so he showed a puzzled look. Rong Yan opened the kitchen cabinet and took out a Cloud Cake that was said to be gone. Noticing his gaze, Rong Yan said calmly, “Miss Ning left it for me.”

County Magistrate Shen was speechless. Why did he feel so depressed? Was he envious? No, he was jealous.

Because of this feeling, County Magistrate Shen, who returned to the dining room, looked at Xiaoxiao strangely. The Ning Family couple didn’t even know who he was, but it was hard to say about these children.

County Magistrate Shen thought that they were free in front of him mainly because they were young and didn’t have any concept of officials. However, His Highness was a prince! No matter how immature they were, they should understand what the royalty meant, right? Therefore, they should really treat His Highness as an ordinary young master.

However, since they only treated him as an ordinary young master, why did they give him special treatment? Only His Highness could eat another piece of such delicious Cloud Cake…

Just as he did not understand, there was suddenly a knock on the door. As the host, the Ning Family naturally had to go take a look.

Xiaoxiao was idle at this moment. The moment she opened the door, she saw an unfamiliar face. “May 1 ask who you’re looking for?”

Before she could finish her sentence, Shopkeeper Xu, who was behind her, walked forward excitedly as if he had seen his family. “Boss, you’re finally here!”

Only then did Xiaoxiao start to size up the person seriously. This young man was about 17 or 18 years old. He had an outstanding appearance and a gentle and refined temperament. One look at his appearance and one could not help but have a good impression of him. Moreover, he always gave Xiaoxiao an indescribable sense of familiarity.

After Li Muyan nodded at Shopkeeper Xu, he cupped his hands and said to Xiaoxiao, “This must be Miss Ning. 1 heard that my family was rude and made you suffer. 1 feel guilty, so I specially came to apologize.”

Was it that exaggerated? Xiaoxiao didn’t know that other than reading Shopkeeper Xu’s letter, Li Muyan also knew about the recent situation of the Ruyi Clothing Shop. He even saw endless business opportunities from those few tricks. Xiaoxiao only felt that this big boss was quite approachable.

Li Muyan even took a few gift boxes from the servant beside him. “It’s not early today, so 1 won’t disturb you anymore. I hope that Miss Ning will come to the Fragrance Restaurant when you’re free and let me do my late hosting duty.” Xiaoxiao’s first impression of this person was not bad. Looking at the carriage waiting in the corner outside the door and Li Muyan’s travel-worn appearance, Xiaoxiao knew that he must have rushed over from his busy schedule.

Initially, she was indeed very unhappy about Fragrance Restaurant breaking the contract. She also vented her anger on their Boss, whom she had never met before. She felt that He Ruhuan had more or less obtained their Boss’s approval for daring to do that, so it was not unjustified for her to vent her anger. However, after Li Muyan expressed his stance, she felt that there might really be a misunderstanding.

She laughed at herself for transmigrating and really living like a child.

“Young Master Li is too kind.”

Just as she was about to say something, Xiaoxiao’s sensitive ears heard a gurgling sound. The words that were about to come out of her mouth turned into, “Are you hungry because you haven’t eaten? Do you want to come in and eat?”

Li Muyan was stunned for a moment. To be honest, his words and behavior just now had a deliberate purpose. However, when this inexperienced young lady really asked such a question sincerely, he actually felt inferior for the first time.

Of course, it was only for a moment. All these years, he was no longer the little master who would blush when he spoke. Hence, he quickly adjusted his expression and cupped his hands again. “I’m preparing to go back now. Miss Ning, you don’t have to trouble yourself.”

Xiaoxiao did not intend to force him, but he was a guest. Today was Big Brother’s birthday, and this person’s shop had let her earn money. He even brought a gift. No matter what, she could not let him leave empty-handed.

Xiaoxiao told him to wait a moment and ran back to the kitchen to open the cabinet. She took out a few sponge cakes from her space under the cover of the partition and ran back.

Rong Yan, who was eating cake, finished his extra meal curiously and followed her. Then, he saw Xiaoxiao hand the bamboo basket filled with pastries to an unfamiliar man. “Take it and eat it on the way.”

This was completely Xiaoxiao’s instinctive behavior of treating herself as a big sister and taking care of a child. However, in Rong Yan’s eyes, he felt that this behavior was quite familiar and irritating.

Li Muyan originally wanted to reject her, but this was a snack made by Xiaoxiao. When the fragrance wafted out, it did not intend to give anyone the right to reject it. Li Muyan was no exception. The moment he smelled the smell, his hand that was pushing out turned around and hooked onto the basket. He said, “Thank you, Miss Ning. It’s impolite for me to reject you.”

Xiaoxiao even explained to him, “This is a snack made of eggs and flour. It’s called sponge cake.”

Rong Yan, who had already eaten the latest version of Cloud Cake, felt comfortable.

Li Muyan nodded. He really planned to leave this time.

He had just turned around when he heard a very familiar voice accusing him.

“Li Muyan? Why are you here?”

“Ning Xiaoxiao! Didn’t you just say that there’s no more Cloud Cake?!”

Mrs. Shen patted the back of his head. “How rude. Call him Cousin!”

Shen Tianci immediately changed his words. “Mother! Cousin snatched our food!”

Mrs. Shen: …My head hurts…

Li Muyan narrowed his eyes and picked up a soft snack from the basket before handing it to his follower to put on the carriage. Then, he opened his mouth and bit down hard in front of Shen Tianci. He was just trying to anger him, but in the next moment, his chewing paused because of the soft texture. Li Muyan praised sincerely, “It’s very delicious! Miss Ning, is this snack called Cloud Cake?”

Shen Tianci was no longer angry when he saw what he was eating. He placed his hands on his hips and said proudly, “Hehe, so you’re eating sponge cake! Let me tell you, I have already eaten it. The Cloud Cake 1 ate today is even sweeter and softer than sponge cake. You definitely haven’t eaten it before! Ning Xiaoxiao is so kind. What a friend!”

Xiaoxiao, who did not understand, was speechless.

She coughed lightly. “1 just saw that this young master was in a hurry and didn’t have time to do anything else.”

Li Muyan looked at Shen Tianci in surprise. “Cousin, you’re much sharper than before.” Unlike before, when he was angry with Shen Tianci, this guy only knew how to cry and look for his mother.

Shen Tianci continued to put his hands on his hips. “Of course. After all, I’m young and my reaction speed is much better than an old man like you!”

The 17-year-old “old man” Li Muyan: {… Cousin is more adorable with a stupid mouth.]

Seeing that the two of them were about to argue again, Mrs. Shen hurriedly came out to smooth things over. “When did you come back?”

Since they had met, they decided to go back together. Just as they were about to get into the carriage, a figure walked towards the Ning Family so quickly that Xiaoxiao did not even have time to gather the gifts in the courtyard into the house.

Second Uncle Ning’s eyes lit up when he saw the value of these items in the courtyard. However, he still tried his best to keep a straight face. “Ning Xiaoxiao, it’s fine if you don’t respect your elders, but you even harmed my unborn son with outsiders!”

Xiaoxiao’s face was wooden.. “What are you up to now?”
