I just want to live a good life

Chapter 146 Something is fishy

With Su Nuan's efforts to stop him, Boss Chen seriously considered closing the shop.

Finally, I wanted to take it back.

There was nothing more to say, and the two parted unhappily.

Chen Shi and his gang insisted on taking back the shop, but Su Nuan held the lease contract and refused to hand over the shop.

Neither side was willing to give in, and the situation finally ended up in the Jingzhao Prefecture.

Mu Yunyi had to be asked to come to court. Fortunately, when Su Nuan arrived at Jingzhao Prefecture, Mu Yunyi arrived in time.

The two of them divided the work, Mu Yunyi was responsible for dealing with these landlords, and Su Nuan returned to Zhusheng Street to appease the tenants.

The tenant's shop was smashed and the loss was huge. Simple appeasement was not enough. Su Nuan negotiated the compensation amount with the tenant. Of course, this money was definitely not paid by her. Whoever smashed the shop had to pay. With Mu Yunyi stepping in, this was not a difficult matter.

The matter was not difficult to handle, but Su Nuan felt that there was something fishy about it.

It is not strange to buy a shop, but it is strange to buy it at three times the price, and to buy the whole street at one time.

Su Nuan asked someone to go to the next street to inquire about the news and confirmed that the purchase of the shop was limited to Zhusheng Street.

This made Su Nuan feel even more suspicious. Her intuition told her that this incident was directed at her.

.

After a busy day, Su Nuan was tired and hungry.

On the way back home, I passed by Tianxiang Tower, and the aroma of the food inside wafted onto the street.

Su Nuan was attracted by the fragrance and asked Falcon to stop the carriage in front of Tianxiang Tower. She wanted to have a good meal in Tianxiang Tower.

Tianxianglou’s signature dish today is Squirrel Fish. Thinking of the sweet and sour taste and the crispy and soft texture, Su Nuan couldn’t help but slurp her saliva.

It was dinner time and Tianxiang Tower was packed with guests. There was no room left in the private room, so Su Nuan found a corner seat in the lobby and sat down.

After the incident at Zuixianju, Falcon was upgraded from a coachman to a coachman and bodyguard.

He followed Su Nuan into Tianxiang Tower and sat down behind Su Nuan.

Su Nuan looked back at the falcon with sharp eyes.

"My Lady Concubine, what's wrong?"

Falcon asked cautiously.

"There are only two of us. Wouldn't it be a waste of space if you sit at two tables?"

"But I dare not sit at the same table with the concubine."

"What are you afraid of? I told you to sit down, so just sit down. Besides, this place is so chaotic. If you don't sit at the same table with me, if someone really plots against me, will you be able to protect me in time?"

After Su Nuan finished speaking, she reached out and pulled the falcon, and the falcon reluctantly sat opposite Su Nuan.

When eating alone, Su Nuan can only order two dishes at most, and she won’t be able to finish more than that. But with Falcon by her side, she can order more dishes.

There are so many guests at Tianxiang Tower, so the chef must be a good cook. Su Nuan naturally wants to try a few more dishes during their visit.

Since Squirrel Mandarin Fish is the signature dish, it is a must-order.

The clear soup hot pot looks good too, and of course I have to order a portion of salted duck. The spicy chicken on the next table was eaten very quickly and must taste good.

After ordering four meat dishes and two vegetarian dishes in one go, Su Nuan reluctantly put down the menu in her hand.

The food came quickly.

The vegetarian dishes came first, followed by today's signature dish, squirrel mandarin fish.

Su Nuan invited Falcon to start eating.

But the falcon seems to be of the rabbit type and only eats vegetarian food.

Su Nuan noticed her reservedness and asked the waiter to bring an extra pair of chopsticks as serving chopsticks. She used the serving chopsticks to divide the fish into two halves, eating one half herself and giving the other half to Falcon.

"My Lady Concubine, this..."

"There's no reason for you to only eat vegetarian food when we're having a meal together. Besides, I only have two plates of vegetarian food. If you eat them all, what will I eat?"

Falcon's expression froze and his face turned red instantly.

"Okay, let's eat. If there are so many rules for eating, it would be a waste of these delicious foods."

Falcon opened his mouth to say something, but was interrupted by Su Nuan raising her hand.

The other dishes were also served one after another. Su Nuan used a serving chopstick to divide each dish according to the previous method, and she and Falcon each had half.

The food at Tianxianglou tasted really good. Su Nuan ate it so deliciously that the falcon on the opposite side slowly let go. He didn't dare to eat too fast at the beginning, but the more he ate, the faster he ate.

Just as the two were concentrating on eating, there was suddenly a commotion in the lobby.

Looking up, I saw a woman running down the stairs connecting to the second floor, and several men in tight clothes were chasing her.

Su Nuan found that the woman looked familiar, so she looked at her a few more times.

"Why is it her?" Su Nuan said to herself.

This woman was the one Ying Shu rescued on the street. Su Nuan had seen her at Xia Qingyao’s wedding. The woman’s real identity was Mu Yunxi, the daughter of Prince Yongping.

Su Nuan now cares about anyone who has something to do with Prince Yongping, especially Mu Yunxi, who was close to Ying Shu before.

Su Nuan took out ten taels of silver and placed them on the table. After raising her hand to signal the waiter, she quickly called Falcon to go out.

As the two ran, Su Nuan ordered Falcon to drive the carriage.

Soon, the carriage appeared at the door of Tianxiang Tower.

Su Nuan quickly got on the carriage, and just behind her, Mu Yunxi stepped out of the gate of Tianxiang Tower.

Su Nuan waved to Mu Yunxi in the carriage, and the latter got into the carriage without thinking.

"I never thought you were the famous prince's concubine."

After sitting down, Mu Yunxi said.

"I didn't expect you to be the princess of Yongping Palace."

"Where is Ying Shu?"

Mu Yunxi asked.

"I do not know."

"You are lying. Isn't he the manager you hired? How come you don't know his whereabouts? Did you hide him?"

Su Nuan felt that this princess had something wrong with her brain.

"Why would I hide him?"

"You, you're afraid that I'll take him away."

"Why did you rob him?"

"Of course he'll be the shopkeeper of my shop. I have a lot more shops than you, an unfavored concubine. With his talent, it's more appropriate for him to work for me."

Su Nuan was envious and jealous. A princess who had just come of age had a lot of shops under her name. What a wicked noble!

"Whenever you see Ying Shu again, tell him that I have opened a new shop and the position of the head shopkeeper will always be reserved for him."

"Why should I listen to you?"

"Because I saved you!"

"I need you to save me? The people chasing me are my father's guards. They don't dare to hurt me."

"Then why did you run?"

"I want you to take care of it!"

Su Nuan frowned. It was really difficult to deal with a girl in her rebellious period. She simply ignored Mu Yunxi and leaned against the wall of the carriage, closing her eyes to rest.

"Hey, Concubine Xia, where are you going?"

"send you home."

"Who said I'm going home? Stop, I'm leaving."

Su Nuan said calmly, "It's impossible to leave. So many people saw you get on the carriage of my Prince's Mansion. If you leave, what if Prince Yongping comes to ask for me?"
