Even hiding behind Qi Changfu, to avoid Zhuang Qingning picking up something else to throw at him, making him cry out in pain and supplication.
Qi Changfu, on the other hand, just chuckled, “Manager Zhuang.”
When others greeted her, Zhuang Qingning felt she should respond. She stopped, smiled faintly, “Chef Qi.”
“Chef Qi seems to be idle, able to find time to chat here.”
Qi Changfu’s face changed at the word “idle”.
He was indeed idle, Fushun Tower’s business was plummeting, and very few customers came. As the chef, he didn’t need to prepare many things in the kitchen, nor did he need to cook many dishes.
Zhuang Qingning was the type of person who knew where to hit.
This little girl was not as simple as she appeared.
Qi Changfu’s eyes darted around, and he chuckled, “Manager Zhuang speaks the truth. Fushun Tower is indeed not what it used to be. Manager Feng is like a rabid dog, biting people everywhere, and the two of us have had more than our fill of idle time.”
“Feng Yongkang had some disputes with you before, right? And he has sent Chef Zhang away. You must have some resentment against Feng Yongkang too.”
“Chef Qi, just say what you want.” Zhuang Qingning coughed lightly.
“You should have heard some of it earlier, Manager Zhuang. We, master and apprentice, are planning to deal with Feng Yongkang. If you could join us…”
Qi Changfu chuckled, “I’m sure it would be much more effective, and we could all get what we want. Help each other, and take what we need. What do you think?”
Zhuang Qingning gave a slight smile, “I’ll have to be honest with you, Chef Qi, I’m not interested in this. I have business to attend to in the shop. I apologize for not being able to join.”
She had had a taste of Tong Fei’s temperament. With such an apprentice, Qi Changfu, the master, could not be much better, and was probably quite a cunning person.
And, there was the previous disagreement with Tong Fei…
At this time, Qi Changfu inviting her was definitely not purely out of a desire to cooperate and achieve a common goal.
Most likely, they were thinking that after achieving their goal, they needed someone to take the blame. That’s probably why they were acting this way. Unfortunately, her back wasn’t strong enough, she couldn’t carry that pot.
Even if she really wanted to deal with Feng Yongkang, she would not cooperate with people like Qi Changfu who had ill intentions and were untrustworthy.
Zhuang Qingning’s lips curled up slightly, her whole face mocking as she turned and walked away.
Qi Changfu’s face darkened. After Zhuang Qingning walked away, he spit fiercely onto the ground, “What a nobody, just a little girl, acting as if she’s so great.”
“What was the meaning of that look? Looking down on us, right? What does she think she is, a nobleman? Her behind-the-scenes manipulation of Manager Chai of Ruyi Pavilion to compete with Fushun Tower, what’s her motive? Does she think other people are blind?”
“Master, don’t be angry. I’ve told you, haven’t I? She’s that kind of person.”
Tong Fei was sullen, “Look at this injury on my head, wasn’t it her who hit me? She just thinks we have no choice but to ask her for help, so she puts on airs.” “Anyway, we don’t depend on her for our livelihood. We just ignore her. If she doesn’t want to do it, then she doesn’t. At least she won’t say anything to Feng Yongkang. We’ll just do what we want.”
