The beloved baby has a space

Chapter 191 Chen Yuan Suspects Old Lady Wang's Identity

Chen Yuan had tried Wang's steamed buns before; the taste was indeed quite unique, but it wouldn't be accurate to say that they were so delicious as to be addictive.

It tastes several times better than other restaurants, but it still doesn't live up to that claim.

However, if you compare Wang's steamed buns with those from other places, you can clearly taste the difference.

Chen Yuan thought that the problem lay with the secret recipe, and that these problems could be solved once he bought the recipe.

Which thriving shop doesn't have a few unique secret recipes?

"Your name is Ayu, right? Then tell me, what's so special about your family's steamed buns? If you're wrong, I won't believe you." Chen Yuan suppressed his thoughts and just smiled at little Ayu.

Little Ayu didn't say it directly, but asked in her heart, "Elf, can I tell Uncle Chen?"

Little Ayu felt that it wouldn't be right to tell Uncle Chen directly.

But she also had to complete the mission; if she didn't participate in the business negotiations, the mission would be considered a failure.

You should only tell half and leave the other half unsaid.

"I think Uncle Chen is very smart..."

What if they find out everything about me?
Little Ayu still has self-awareness.

I remember Grandma telling her before that she shouldn't treat others like fools.

She's so young, she certainly wouldn't think adults are stupid.

【Then tell him that if he's willing to give you 1000 taels, you'll give him a special gift.】

"What special gift is it?"

Don't ask me about that, I'm doing it for you right now.

"Oh."

Tuanzi's thoughts are also very simple. Since coming into this world, it has realized that people's thoughts are very changeable and cannot be judged based on data.

Since becoming a dedicated caregiver, Tuanzi has been constantly upgrading its intelligence capabilities, just to solve problems for the baby in a timely manner.

Little Ayu repeated what Tuanzi had said.

Chen Yuan's expression became even more curious: "A special gift?"

What kind of special gift can a little girl receive?

It's still worth 200 taels.

Could it be some royal secret?

In that instant, many thoughts flashed through Chen Yuan's mind, wondering whether he should take advantage of the little girl being alone here to uncover the secrets of the Wang family.

Since Chen Yuan was willing to pay 800 taels, it already shows that he believed he could earn much more money than that.

What if this money could double again?

No one can resist such a great temptation.

As Chen Yuan was lost in thought and about to say something, there was a knock on the door.

"Excuse me, sir. The Wang family is looking for Ayu. I told them Ayu is in a private room." The waiter walked into the private room with an apologetic look on his face.

However, he still looked at Chen Yuan with some wariness.

The fact that Old Wang's family didn't know Ayu had come means that the little girl ran over on her own.

Why would you come here to find someone from out of town?

Could this be a human trafficking ring?

The waiter's gaze towards Chen Yuan was now tinged with suspicion.

If such a clever and adorable little Ayu were to be taken away, many people in their town would be heartbroken.

Everyone likes Xiao Ayu, who often gives out fruit to everyone.

Chen Yuan understood the waiter's look, and his face turned awkward.

He looked at Xiao Ayu beside him: "You came to see me, not because your family wanted you to?" Xiao Ayu shook her head: "No, I came on my own."

Now, Ayu started to feel guilty, not expecting her family to come looking for her so quickly.

She was thinking that after talking with Uncle Chen, she would hurry to Brother Ayou's house so that her family wouldn't know that she had lied to someone.

It was only at this moment that Xiao Ayu realized that she had been lying.

Chen Yuan was somewhat helpless. He led Xiao Ayu out of the private room and, sure enough, saw the Wang family members looking anxious.

Standing next to Liu was Old Wang and an old lady who looked travel-worn.

Before Chen Yuan could figure out who the old lady was, Xiao Ayu had already broken free from his hand and pounced on her like lightning.

"Grandma!"

Grandma Wang was still a little angry, but seeing how adoring Xiao Ayu looked, she couldn't bring herself to criticize her anymore. She could only quickly squat down and hug Xiao Ayu.

"Oh, my dear Grandma, you really scared Grandma to death." Old Mrs. Wang felt a wave of fear.

She had just returned to the Wang family home and was only halfway there when she met Liu, who was out shopping. She asked her and found out that Ayu wasn't home and was at Qin Huai's house.

They walked a few steps and went to Qin Huai's house, thinking of bringing Xiao Ayu back.

The Qin family's gatekeeper was even more confused than they were: "Um, Miss Ayu? She's not at your house?"

The gatekeeper's question almost made Liu dizzy.

What?! Ayu isn't here!

Where will Ayu go?

Grandma Wang didn't even care about anyone else; she turned and ran outside, asking everyone she met if they had seen Ayu.

Liu also hurriedly went to ask.

Fortunately, many people in the town knew Ayu, and soon someone told them that they had seen little Ayu go to the Nanhe Inn.

The two of them then hurriedly came looking for them.

"Ayu, didn't Grandma say that you shouldn't wander off alone? If you run into bad people, you'll never see your family again! You can't do that again next time."

Grandma Wang couldn't hold back any longer. After the initial joy of getting her things back, she still spoke to Ayu in a somewhat harsh tone.

Little Ayu knew she was in the wrong, and nodded her head repeatedly: "Grandma, I know I was wrong, I will never do it again."

Chen Yuan, standing next to him: "..." Does he really look like a bad guy?

Old Mrs. Wang had never met Chen Yuan before, so Mrs. Liu quickly introduced them.

Upon learning that the man wanted to buy the recipe for the steamed bun shop, Grandma Wang nodded slightly.

"I have just returned home and I am afraid I have not been able to entertain you properly. Please allow me to go home and settle in first, and I will visit you again tomorrow," said Old Mrs. Wang.

Chen Yuan realized that the person in front of him might be the one in charge of the Wang family, so he bowed even more respectfully and said, "You're too kind, sir. I will wait here for you."

After Old Mrs. Wang took Liu Shi and Xiao Ayu back, Chen Yuan stared at their departing figures, lost in thought.

He called over the waiter and asked him, "Which family does that old lady from the Wang family come from?"

The waiter scratched his head and said uncertainly, "I'm not really sure about that, but the Wang family just moved here. They're supposedly country folk who moved from the village."

"A country bumpkin?" Chen Yuan found it somewhat amusing, but seeing that the waiter didn't seem to know much, he waved him away to get back to work.

Back in the private room, Chen Yuan ate his meal while pondering the matter.

He initially thought the Wang family members were quite honest and simple, but he couldn't make up his mind about the prescription. He thought they were just unsure how to deal with the sudden discovery of so much money.

Upon seeing Old Mrs. Wang, Chen Yuan quickly overturned his previous idea.

Although the old man was dressed plainly, his dignified bearing was undeniable. In particular, despite his travel-worn appearance, his speech was exceptionally proper, neither humble nor arrogant.

He was clearly raised in a good family. Chen Yuan had traveled all over the country for many years and naturally knew that some things couldn't be faked.

Since that's the case, he also needs to think about what attitude he should take when negotiating business tomorrow.
