After marrying the hunter, he became more and more abnormal

Chapter 108 Shocking words

After the two of them sat down, Li Jingran raised his eyes and said with a smile: "Ze'er, I didn't expect that we are so predestined. If I had known that you were also here to see Aji, we could have come here together in the carriage."

Xia Mo raised the corner of his mouth, his bright eyes flickered between him and Qin Ji, and he said casually: "Yeah, I didn't expect to see you here, Brother Li. If I had known that you were familiar with Shopkeeper Qin, we wouldn't have come here."

You can just go to another restaurant to have a look, haha.

Xia Mo laughed dryly in his heart. After all, the way they addressed each other was so familiar, it was certain that their relationship was definitely not ordinary.

However, with Li Jingran's prestigious background, what Uncle Yang said before about Tianranju being suppressed by other restaurants seemed unlikely, unless the other party's status was slightly better than his.

But if that were the case, wouldn't this small Qinghe County really be full of hidden dragons and crouching tigers? This was unlikely, so Tianranju's disadvantage was most likely just a superficial phenomenon.

For a moment, Xia Mo, who was not sure about the relationship between the two, hesitated. This recipe... should he discuss it in detail with this shopkeeper Qin?

While thinking, he involuntarily turned to Ling Chuan who had an indifferent expression. At this moment, Li Jingran spoke again.

"I just heard from Xiao Tang that, Ze, you have a book of ancestral recipes that you want to sell?" He asked seriously, not feeling at all that he was stealing the show.

Xia Mo nodded and smiled a little embarrassedly, "Yes, that's right."

"So that's really the case." Li Jingran stretched out the end of his voice, and frowned slightly, then his eyes turned to Ling Chuan's face, who had been frowning.

The other person noticed it, and their two sharp gazes met for a moment. There seemed to be an invisible fire crackling, and invisible smoke filled the space between the two people.

Seeing the two looking at each other "affectionately", Xia Mo and Qin Ji on the side became inexplicably nervous, fearing that these two "lifelong enemies" could no longer maintain their superficial harmony and have a passionate exchange. Fortunately, after a while, Ling Chuan looked away and turned to look at the young man who had been staring at him.

Forget it, even though this guy always provokes him, he is here to do business with the young man today, and he can't ruin the young man's business because of him.

Just when Xia Mo thought that they would not confront each other, Li Jingran's mouth twitched, and he suddenly said something shocking: "Brother Ling, you are being too polite. Why didn't you tell me that your family was almost broke? It doesn't matter if you suffer a little, but how can you let Ze Ge'er suffer with you?"

"Puff! Cough..." Qin Ji had just lowered his head to drink tea when he suddenly heard his cousin say such a sarcastic remark. He was so frightened that the tea went into his nose.

When it comes to the ability to choke people, his cousin is still better. The spies had mentioned before that the young man has a husband who dotes on him very much. That doting is simply like treating the young man like a treasure. His cousin's sarcasm really made him admire him to the core!

But, cousin, can you take a look at the current situation? Aren't you afraid that the other party will get angry and demolish my restaurant? Aren't you afraid that the young man is really Liu Qiuwu's nephew, making your pursuit of his wife even more difficult?

Qin Ji silently wiped the water stains from his lips, glanced at Ling Chuan whose face was as black as the bottom of a pot, and shook his head secretly. He was too clever for his own good and only sought temporary pleasure.

As for Xia Mo, he had completely lost the ability to speak at this moment. He stared at Li Jingran in amazement, whose face showed a look of "Did I say something wrong?", and the corners of his mouth twitched.

How could he have expected that the excuse he made up casually in order to see someone quickly would actually become a topic of ridicule for his brother Chuan. It seemed that this person's hatred for Brother Chuan was extremely deep.

Xia Mo had the urge to cover his face. He secretly looked at the man with a frosty face and a cold body. If his eyes could become reality, he would have already exchanged dozens of moves with the person who mocked him.

At this moment, Xia Mo felt that he needed to come out and explain clearly, "Ahem, Brother Li, you misunderstood. Actually, my family hasn't reached that point yet. Brother Ling has never let me suffer the slightest."

He paused, then smiled apologetically at Qin Ji and said, "I just lied to that guy just now in order to see Shopkeeper Qin. I hope Shopkeeper Qin doesn't mind."

Qin Ji forced a smile, "No, no, Jing Ran's words are not very pleasant to the ears, but he cares about you after all, I hope you don't mind."

"Haha, that won't happen, right Brother Ling?" Xia Mo said as he turned his head to look at the man with his jaw clenched.

Alas, no matter how wrong he was, it was still his fault. He was the one who directly put the blame on others. Woohoo, Brother Chuan, I will make it up to you.

Noticing the young man's gaze, Ling Chuan retracted his glare at Li Jingran and met the young man's dark, starry eyes that seemed to be able to speak.

In an instant, the impetuous air in his heart miraculously slowly dissipated. How could he let the little brother down? As for someone, heh...

"No." Ling Chuan glanced at the complacent Li Jingran, then said to Qin Ji expressionlessly.

"That's good, that's good." Qin Ji said with a smile, "Now that we've opened the conversation, let's get back to the point and talk about the recipe."

As he spoke, his eyes turned and he looked directly at Xia Mo, and Xia Mo also met his suddenly serious gaze with a bright look, and said with a calm smile: "That's great, but before we talk, I have one thing to explain to Shopkeeper Qin. I don't sell the entire recipe book, but only ten of them. If Shopkeeper Qin has any objections, we'll be sorry to bother you."

After Xia Mo finished speaking, he waited patiently for the other party to ask them to leave. After all, he had come to this point and had been telling lies and making fun of others time and time again. With such a bad attitude, anyone with a temper would probably ask them to get out right away, right?

Ling Chuan saw through the young man's thoughts at a glance, but did not speak to stop him. Instead, Li Jingran spoke first.

"After all, it's a secret recipe passed down from our ancestors. Don't worry, Brother Ze. Aji won't care about these things, right Aji?" Li Jingran looked at Qin Ji. The other party came to him on his own initiative, so don't let him run away.

Qin Ji understood what he meant at a glance and was speechless. Now he knew that he was trying to get close to the person by keeping him? Why didn't he think of this just now? The moment he opened his mouth, the atmosphere became so awkward. It was probably because he had offended the person that he said this.

It must be said that the thoughtful Qin Ji was right. Xia Mo really wanted to sell more. After all, it was about making money. Who would complain about making too much? He was a little undecided because of Li Jingran's identity, but the other party had ridiculed his brother Chuan like this, and even used his words to attack his brother Chuan, so he suddenly didn't want to talk about it anymore.

Qin Ji is a businessman. Even if his cousin didn't say this, ever since he saw that the person coming was Xia Mo, he decided to have a serious talk with the other party. After all, he had tasted the other party's maltose. It was really not easy for him to make such candy himself.

As far as he knew, the candies that the other party sold to Shopkeeper Hong were selling very well. This man was quite capable, so his ancestral recipe was also worth exploring, wasn't it? It might bring him unexpected results.

So as soon as Li Jingran finished speaking, he smiled and nodded, saying: "Yes, Jingran is right. Now that we are here, let's talk about the recipes of these ten dishes first. If they are good dishes, Tianranju will not reject them."
