Zhao Wei hurriedly stepped forward to help one of the old men up and asked, ”Old man, what's going on?”

Unexpectedly, the old man firmly grabbed Zhao Wei's sleeve and viciously said, ”My son came to eat at your place yesterday. Not long after he returned, he suddenly foamed at the mouth and fell to the ground dead. What poison did you poison him with?”

”Yes!”

A woman on the side also stood up while crying and pointed at Zhao Wei's nose and scolded, ”You guys are clearly a black shop!” ”She thinks that since esteemed wangfei opened this shop, she's just acting recklessly, clearly looking down on us common folk!”

”Exactly! That's right! It's obviously because they view human life as worthless! ”

When he said this, Zhao Wei's heart jumped. He was bowing and kneeling because he was afraid that someone would connect this matter with the King's Manor, but someone still said it out loud. This further confirmed Zhao Wei's judgement.

He grabbed the old man's shoulder and brought him to the store to sit down. However, in the eyes of outsiders, it was as if he was holding onto the old man and bringing him into the shop. Just as the old man wanted to shout out, he met Zhao Wei's murderous gaze.

”Everyone, come in and take a seat. It's cold outside, so it's not a big deal to stand around at the door.”

Zhao Wei gestured for everyone to sit in the restaurant.

”San'er, go and boil some water for everyone to make some tea.”

Zhao Wei called for a waiter to fetch water and make tea for everyone. He also called for a servant and said in a low voice, ”Go report to esteemed wangfei that we're short on materials today. We can't open the shop for the time being, so don't let her come.”

That person was also a smart person, so he naturally knew what Zhao Wei meant.

However, at this moment, Luo Lingwei and her group had encountered other troubles.

Early this morning, Luo Lingwei was still resting when she heard Xiaoqing's anxious knocking on the door.

”Sis Weiwei, it's bad! Lil 'White is gone!”

Luo Lingwei had been together with them for more than half a year, so she had long treated them as her own sisters.

Hearing that Little White had disappeared, Luo Lingwei was so scared that she immediately jumped up from the bed.

”When did we discover that Lil 'White disappeared!”

She quickly opened the door and shouted to Xiaoqing.

He saw that Xiaoqing's eyes were bloodshot and her tears were still on her face. It was obvious that she had just been crying.
