Chapter 417 - A Tooth for a Tooth (2/2)
Although his cooking skill was not outstanding, he had absolute faith in Xia Family. Since he knew that Su Hai left Ruyi Tower, he had been blaming him till now.
“Fourth Brother, you’d better save your strength and think how to beat down him instead.” If a battle could solve the problem, she would have made use of it.
“Of course, I have thought about it. Didn’t that bastard, Su Hai, injure the hand of our master? Now we can also hurt his hand. This is called giving him a taste of his own medicine.” Fourth Brother was rubbing his fists aside. It seemed that if Xia Yu nodded, he would immediately rush out and cut off Su Hai’s hand.
“We don’t use and disdain to use that kind of low method. If we aim to win, we should win fairly and let them know who on earth is the best.” Xia Yu slapped the table heavily.
“But Junior Sister, he is really better than us.” Fourth Brother became downcast immediately once hearing that they should win fairly. “Only if our master’s hand recovered suddenly could we win.”
“Nonsense!” Second Brother opened the door of the room and glared at Fourth Brother. “You just come to assist me. Junior Sister is right. It is not sure whether we will lose before the game starts.”
“Yes, I am coming. But Second Brother, what if we lose?” Fourth Brother was still not confident.
“We can lose the game, but we can’t lose the courage! Come here now!” Second Brother gave his order, and Fourth Brother followed him obediently.
The manager shook his head and invited Xia Yu to his office. He said directly, “I have tasted Eldest Brother’s dishes. I’m sure that Second Brother is no match for him.”
“I also know this, and I didn’t intend to let Second Brother compete with him. I have already asked Shen Yan for a leave. I will study cooking skills in the following days, and I will compete with him at that time.” Xia Yu naturally would not push the whole responsibility to Second Brother. She had already thought it through. Since the rule of Xia family was that the skills should not be passed to outsiders, she would take up the responsibility.
“With Eldest Miss coming over in person, we may have a chance to win.” Although Xia Yu seldom cooked, when the big boss came over and his hand was just hurt by the hot oil that time, she came over and helped them.
The manager had tasted her dishes, and they were almost as good as those of the big boss.
“You don’t need to flatter me. I can only say that I will try my best. But don’t tell Second Brother, in case he will spill the beans about my plan.” Xia Yu wanted to win with a surprising method.
“You can rest assured, Eldest Miss.” The manager nodded and said.
In the next few days, Xia Yu just stayed at home, studying the recipes. It was Saturday, and she went to visit Bao Na. When she just came to the door, she heard Bao Na’s weeping. She knocked at the door at once and cried to her, “Bao Na, what happened? Open the door!”
A few minutes later, Bao Na opened the door. Her eyes were red and swollen, and her phone was in her hand.
“Bao Na, what happened to you just now?” Xia Yu asked anxiously.
“That bastard called and cursed me. He said if I dared to sue him, he would post the things between us online. How could he be so cruel? Why did he have to drive me to the corner?” Bao Na said and cried again. After pausing for a moment, she continued to say, “Just now he said that he would ask Kang Lan to come to me.”
“Did you agree?”
“Yes. Otherwise, what else could I do?”
She nodded and said in a helpless tone.
Xia Yu knew that she didn’t want to see Kang Lan, but she had to because Chen Wenxuan knew totally her weak point.
As for her decision, Xia Yu did not agree, but she had no right to say anything.
“Bao Na, I’m taking a rest today. Let’s hang out and forget those unhappy things for the time being. Let’s have a good day.” Xia Yu took her arm and said to her with a smile.
She grunted assent and then took her purse. They wandered for the whole morning and had a self-help barbecue for lunch. Xia Yu had planned to take her to climb the mountain in the afternoon, but Kang Lan called her and said that she had checked in at a hotel. She asked Bao Na where she was and then sent the hotel address to her to come over.
“Bao Na, I am going there with you.” Xia Yu was a little worried about her. Kang Lan was someone hard to deal with. Xia Yu really worried that the two people would start to fight while disagreeing with each other.
They took a taxi and went straight to the hotel. At the front desk, Xia Yu saw Kang Lan and was shocked at first glance because she was completely different from the image in Xia Yu’s impression. She thought she would be a domineering woman who had ferocious eyes as usual, but instead, it was a quiet woman standing in front of them.
But Xia Yu didn’t like her eyes very much. They were cold and very gloomy. Xia Yu only looked at her for a few seconds, and she got all her goosebumps out.
It must be very hard for her to bear it. Xia Yu couldn’t help worrying about her. She could bear it for now in the hall where people went in and out. When they came into the room and stood face to face, things might change a lot.
After all, they were rivals in love. When they met, if a river of blood was not made, their eyes would be green with jealousy.
“How do we have a talk?” Bao Na showed no kind look to her.
“Don’t you want to talk here?” There was a trace of impatience in Kang Lan’s tone. Her feeling might be the same as that of Bao Na.
“Whatever. You decide it.” Bao Na said in a cold voice.
Kang Lan’s face became gloomy immediately, and she even clenched her fists. Xia Yu took out her phone from the pocket. If she dared to attack Bao Na, she would call the police immediately.
“Things have been done. However mad you are, you should settle it down, right? If it keeps going on like this, his fame will be damaged, and you also won’t get anything better, right?” Kang Lan took a deep breath and lowered her voice. She looked at Bao Na with expectation.
