Chapter 263: Not as procrastinating as Xie Nanyuan
Pei Liangchuan felt uneasy when he saw Shen Qionghua's eyes. He always felt that every look Shen Qionghua gave him was full of deep meaning.
But he can't hide either.
Who made the woman next to him say that Shen Qionghua was her adoptive parent? If he wanted to marry her, he had to get Shen Qionghua's approval.
When Pei Liangchuan heard it for the first time, he almost dropped his bowl.
When did Pei Liangchuan's future no longer depend on his future daughter-in-law, but on a boss with whom he had no blood relationship?
I still remember that he was invited to Beijing by Shen Qionghua.
Now, in just over a year, his position has been reversed with Shen Qionghua, and now he is the one who needs help from Shen Qionghua?
But this woman was very stubborn and insisted on getting Shen Qionghua's approval, saying that her life was not her own but Shen Qionghua's.
Because of this, the last time Shen Qionghua sent someone to ask him for medicine, he only dared to accept half of the gold.
After the people left, he felt so regretful.
How could he fall for such a stubborn woman!
Pei Liangchuan himself didn't know when he fell in love with An Jin.
Looking back, he had only met An Jin a few times because Shen Qionghua asked him to treat An Jin's injuries for gold.
An Jin only had superficial injuries at that time, and compared to Xie Nanyuan who was poisoned, the two were simply incomparable.
He even laughed at Shen Qionghua for being stupid. An Jin's injury could be cured by any doctor, but Shen Qionghua insisted on spending a huge amount of money to hire him to treat An Jin.
Only a fool would refuse such a job with high pay and little work, so of course he gladly accepted it.
At that time, he didn't think An Jin was special in his heart.
Later, there was a rumor that a new restaurant had opened in the capital, and the pastries there were particularly delicious, but very expensive.
He was obsessed with medicine, and apart from gold, he was also greedy for food.
I thought it was just famous for its pastries, and just a few plates of dim sum, how expensive could it be?
He didn't even look at the price the first time he went there, but when he paid the bill, even he, who only looked at gold and didn't look at silver, felt a little pain in his heart.
After paying the bill, he didn't go anywhere. Looking at the bustling diners in the restaurant, he felt that this restaurant really made money, more than him, the so-called miracle doctor.
With this casual glance, I happened to see An Jin dancing gracefully in the crowd.
After much inquiry, combined with his previous experience of treating An Jin's injuries, he finally figured out the whole story.
At first, he just wanted to poach An Jin and start a business with him to open a restaurant.
He didn't know why he suddenly wanted to do business, even though he had never been interested in it. Maybe he really wanted to make money? Did he think running a restaurant would make more money than treating patients?
Anyway, it was just his idea, so he just did it.
But I failed at the first step.
An Jin was a stubborn woman who refused to change her ways. It was as if her brain was filled with water. No matter how much he talked or even bribed her, she only recognized Shen Qionghua.
During that time, he was so angry that his teeth were itching.
He has always been a very thick-skinned person. At that time, he was treating Xie Nanyuan. Knowing that Shidinglou was the property of the Shen family, he did not ask Shen Qionghua to send anyone to prepare other meals. He ran to Shen Qionghua and said that he wanted to eat the food at Shidinglou.
The food at Shidinglou is expensive, delicious, and varied. Compared with the food from other restaurants brought by the servants, even a fool would know how to choose.
What's more, he had not given up at that time and was still thinking about persuading An Jin to do business with him.
So I started spending all day in Shidinglou.
Since Shen Qionghua covered his three meals a day, he was too lazy to run back and forth, so he unceremoniously asked An Jin to reserve a private room for him.
After the meal, he sat by the window and stared at An Jin, watching her dancing gracefully below, watching her forcing a smile below, watching her busy figure.
Whenever she was free, he would go downstairs to pester An Jin, trying to persuade her to open a restaurant with him.
He didn't know when it started, but as he watched, he began to see into his heart.
When did you discover it?
Once, when he was sitting by the window after his meal, a wealthy businessman who was drunk dared to touch An Jin's hand and said that he wanted to marry An Jin as his seventh concubine.
Everyone knows how important Shidinglou, where An Jin works, is among the restaurants in the capital.
An Jin is good-looking and capable, and many people have coveted her for a long time, but no one knows the background of the owner of Shidinglou, so no one dares to make a move on An Jin.
But there are also those who still have lustful intentions and want to take advantage of others when they are drunk.
Anyway, when people are drunk, what they do is not from their heart, so why bother about it.
If you run a restaurant and you care about everything, then you don’t even want to run this business anymore!
It was with this mentality that the rich businessman dared to touch it that day.
Pei Liangchuan was leaning against the window at the time and saw everything clearly. His brain suddenly exploded.
Without thinking twice, he kicked open the door of the box, rushed downstairs, and kicked the rich businessman to the ground.
Afterwards, An Jin thanked him. That was the first smile An Jin gave him after he proposed to open a restaurant together, and he felt very proud.
So he took the opportunity to propose opening a restaurant, but as expected, he was rejected again. He was so angry.
Unexpectedly, An Jin asked him another question.
An Jin asked him, since he liked gold so much, knowing that she would never agree to leave with him to open a restaurant, why didn't he go out to help people treat illnesses and earn gold instead of wasting his time at Shidinglou?
This sentence made Pei Liangchuan wake up from his dream, but he was puzzled.
With this question in mind, he returned to the private room of Donglai Pavilion and did not sleep all night.
When the first light of dawn appeared on the horizon, he finally figured it out.
It turned out that the reason he stayed in Shiding Tower and refused to leave was not for the gold, but for An Jin.
Is he in love with An Jin?
When this thought came to mind, Pei Liangchuan was not scared, but quickly accepted it.
He thought An Jin was pretty good. She was good-looking, capable, and a good cook. When he was with An Jin, he didn't have to think about poaching her all day long, and he could eat delicious pastries every day.
Even if An Jin said he wanted to spend money on the pastries, it didn't matter. If he and An Jin became husband and wife, the money would just come out of his left pocket and go into his right pocket, and it would still be his.
Pei Liangchuan is a man of action, unlike Xie Nanyuan who is always dithering. Sometimes Pei Liangchuan feels overwhelmed when he sees Xie Nanyuan's awkward look.
After confirming his feelings, he quickly started pursuing An Jin.
