Gu Zi set aside her cleaning tools and walked over to welcome the line of esteemed guests. She was somewhat taken aback. Su Shen hadn’t mentioned that his old friend was coming to grace the shop with his presence.

Gui Hua watched as Gu Zi ushered the guests inside, and suddenly Gu Zi’s words made sense to her. Of course, having breakfast might make one thirsty, and they might want a drink!

She turned to the people who had earlier persuaded her to take the lead and accused, “Tell me, how much would it take to hire this Boss Huo?”

Those who had previously spoken ill of Sister Hua’s Gourmet Shop behind her back fell silent. Even though they hadn’t been physically struck, they couldn’t help but feel a sting of embarrassment. Indeed, how much would it take to hire Boss Huo? Perhaps no amount of money would be enough.

The spectators gradually dispersed.

Boss Huo and his entourage cleared out the last of the breakfast ingredients in the shop. When Boss Huo claimed he was still hungry, Gu Zi personally cooked him a bowl of braised egg noodles. After finishing his meal and leaving satisfied, Boss Huo even left Gu Zi a ten-yuan tip, which Gu Zi added to the cash register.

Mother Lin and Li Hua looked at the cash register filled with coins, their hearts silently throbbing with excitement. They hadn’t expected that they, as women, could earn so much money in just one morning with their own hands. The thought of such a morning filled with busyness and excitement was something they had never dared to imagine before.

By the afternoon, the booming business continued. Customers lined up from inside the shop to the outside, many of whom were city dwellers. They would buy one to two kilos at a time, planning to take it home and eat it for a week, and some even planned to buy it as a gift.

They planned to bring their friends to taste this secret recipe braised meat and the unheard-of spicy soup next time. It would definitely be a surprise.

As the sun was about to set, Gu Zi left first. Mother Lin and the other two women were not in a hurry. In order to do business well in the town, the Lin family had even rented a small house next to the shop. They would live there during business hours, which was convenient for their early mornings and late nights.

However, Gu Zi quickly regained her rationality. She couldn’t allow herself to be so easily swayed by him!

She averted her gaze, letting it fall on his clothes. “That’s good then. Why don’t you go take a bath and get some sleep?” Her words were a subtle hint for him to release her. If he continued to hold her in this position, she wouldn’t be able to resist him.

She had to wake up early the next day. If she gave in to the temptation now, she knew she would regret it in the morning. After all, once this man got started, he was rather… enduring. Gu Zi was not one to indulge in self-torture.

Su Shen studied her for a moment, understanding her intentions. He didn’t press her further. Instead, he leaned down to plant a lingering kiss on her lips before leading her upstairs.

As he bathed, Gu Zi lay in bed, the recent scene replaying in her mind.

Gu Zi liked his domineering side, but she was even more fond of his gentle demeanor. His lips had gently grazed hers, his tongue slowly prying open her teeth to explore every inch of her mouth, savoring her taste. His actions were tender, yet filled with a sense of longing.
