The story of a bullied daughter's rise to power

"The young lady has been very kind to me, and this is what I should do," Lian'er said.

Xiu'er smiled upon hearing this. A hint of sarcasm appeared on her pale face. "What should I do? Lian'er, you're so honest. In this world, there's no such thing as right or wrong. My cousin can be forgiven for anything she does, but it's different with you, Xiu'er. If anything happens to my cousin, it's your responsibility."

"Cousin, why are you saying this to me?" Lian'er is not a fool. She won't take Xiu'er's words of sowing discord to heart.

"Nothing, just something that just came to my mind. You can go down. I want to be alone." Xiu'er regained her pitiful look, leaving Lian'er a little confused.

However, some things, once heard, no matter if you want to believe them or not, will eventually take root in your heart and then gradually grow into a towering tree.

After Lian'er left, Xiu'er ate her lunch in her room, mouthful by mouthful, but a dangerous light flickered in her eyes.

After receiving the news, Situ Yaorao hurried back to the restaurant. It was open for business, and Yu Sheng, as she had previously instructed, had set up a regular alcohol sales area at the entrance. However, the prices were very high. Inside, the restaurant was packed. When Situ Yaorao returned, a crowd of people were gathered at the entrance, buying alcohol. The seller was none other than Wu, the man who had attempted to assassinate her the previous day.

Wu was a little surprised to see Situ Yaorao coming back, but he still made way for her to enter.

When I entered the restaurant, I saw Zi Su and the others busying around.

Yu Sheng sat on a chair and settled accounts, her brows tightly furrowed, and she didn't seem very happy.

Situ Yaorao knocked on Yusheng's desk. Yusheng looked up and saw that it was Situ Yaorao. She stood up immediately and said, "You are finally here. Come with me."

"Hey? Wait a minute, I don't know what's going on. What are you doing..." Situ Yaorao was dragged up to the third floor by the man without any reason. He pushed open the door of the room where Situ Yaorao usually lived and closed it.

"Yusheng, don't do anything rash in broad daylight." Situ Yaorao looked at the man warily. Seeing this, Yusheng laughed angrily: "What are you thinking?"

"Is this just my imagination? You dragged me into the room so rudely and even closed the door. What do you want to do?" Situ Yaorao was still alert. However, if you looked closely, you would notice the teasing smile on her face.

"Situ, this is not the time to joke." Yu Sheng said to Situ Yaorao with a serious expression.

"I saw the letter you wrote me before. What happened to Ziyu?" Situ Yaorao poured herself a cup of tea, took a sip, and found it was cold. This is a typical case of the saying "the tea gets cold when the person leaves."

No one cleaned the house for her.

"Prince Yun Yi has often come here to look for Zi Yu in the past two days. This is no secret. Naturally, it spread throughout the capital." Yu Sheng said.

"Well, this is normal. Then what?" Situ Yaorao asked calmly.

"Prince Yun Yi is incredibly talented, and countless women admire him. Among them, Princess Jin Le is quite famous. Princess Jin Le is 28 years old and will take the female examination next year. It is said that once she passes, the Queen Mother will arrange a marriage between her and Prince Yun Yi. The relationship between these two can be imagined."

"So what? Yu Sheng, get to the point." Situ Yaorao felt that she could guess what would happen next.

"Today, Princess Jinle came to the restaurant and asked to take Miss Ziyu away by name."

"You just let her take her away?" Situ Yaorao found it unbelievable.

"Ahem! It was Ziyu who took the initiative to go with her. She said it was for Prince Yunyi." The man said awkwardly.

"Because of Tantai Yunyi? Then, where is he?" Situ Yaorao asked. The man was even more embarrassed when he heard this: "I haven't had time to look for him yet. However, Prince Yunyi probably won't care about such matters."

"That's true. Tan Tai Yun Yi's temper... But why did you let Zi Yu go with her? Even if Zi Yu wanted to leave, you should have stopped her." Situ Yaorao said distressedly.

"It's not that I don't want to stop them, it's just that we can't have arguments in this restaurant. Princess Jinle is coming with such force, and I don't want anything to happen to the restaurant, so naturally I have to settle things first and let the guests in," Yu Sheng explained. Situ Yaorao felt relieved after hearing this. Indeed, as a businessman, nothing is more important than doing business well.

"Where are they now?"

"I went to Qingya Pavilion"

“…” Situ Yaorao was speechless.

"What's wrong, Situ?" Yu Sheng asked worriedly when she saw Situ Yaorao's strange expression. Situ Yaorao looked at Yu Sheng deeply, took a deep breath, and said in a hoarse voice, "You did this on purpose, didn't you?"

"Forehead?"

"Are you teasing me on purpose?" Situ Yaorao almost yelled.

"How could this happen? But what's wrong with you? I rarely see you so angry." Yu Sheng asked in surprise.

Situ Yaorao almost felt like crying. Losing her temper? Now she was even thinking about killing someone. What was going on? She had just fought so hard with the Qingya Pavilion gang yesterday, and now she was being asked to go to Qingya Pavilion to look for someone again?

The face is gone.

"Situ, you didn't have any conflict with the people from Qingya Pavilion, did you?" Yu Sheng, who knew Situ Yaorao very well, guessed it in almost an instant.

Upon hearing this, Situ Yaorao glared at him fiercely: "I just had a conflict with them yesterday. Today, you want me to go to Qingya Pavilion to cause trouble again and take Ziyu away?"

"Hey! This is really an accident. Besides, Ziyu is the signature of our restaurant. Without her, the restaurant will be even busier." Yu Sheng said helplessly.

"What do you mean?" Situ Yaorao frowned.

"Since it opened, the restaurant has been packed. Before, Wu and Zisu were selling wine outside, while Ziyu was serving customers inside.

Occasionally, when the dishes were slow to arrive, Ziyu would chat with the customers and tell them to take it easy. Now… there's only one Zisu left. There's a crowd outside. The room is a mess too. I almost wish I could find a few more waiters. Do you know how many people come to the restaurant every day? These few people work themselves to death every day." Yu Sheng began to complain.

Situ Yaorao was overwhelmed when she heard this: "Okay, okay, I understand everything you said. Just tell me what you want to do!"

Situ Yaorao stopped the man from continuing and asked.

"Bring Ziyu back."

"another."

"Tell Prince Yun Yi to bring Zi Yu back." Yu Sheng continued.

Situ Yaorao's mouth twitched when she heard this. Is there any difference between the two?

But… the second one was better, at least with Tan Tai Yun Yi around. Princess Lian Qiao would at least give her some face if she saw her again. Thinking about it, Situ Yaorao decided on the outcome: "Go find Tan Tai Yun Yi."

"Go ahead." Yu Sheng was calm. Situ Yaorao then realized something was wrong: "Wait... you're not going to let me go alone, are you?"

"Do you expect me to go with you? Don't tease me, my aunt. Once I leave, the restaurant will be in complete chaos." Yu Sheng had a terrible headache.

"That's true. But if you don't come with me, I'll always feel unwilling. Why am I the only one running around?" Situ Yaorao looked distressed. When Yu Sheng heard this, she just wanted to slap her to death.

"Quick battle, quick decision." Yu Sheng gritted her teeth.

"Okay," Situ Yaorao said with a charming smile. Then, the two of them left, with Zi Su looking at them with a look of "Why did you abandon me?" Without Yu Sheng's help, the restaurant was even busier.

After leaving the restaurant, Yu Sheng finally breathed a sigh of relief: "I can finally run out and relax a little."

"Is it really that serious? If that doesn't work, go find a few more guys." Situ Yaorao suggested. As soon as these words came out, Yu Sheng wanted to kill someone.

"Don't look at me like that. Did I say something wrong?" Situ Yaorao moved to the side with some fear.

"The waiters in our restaurant are all handsome men and beautiful women. If we change this style, wouldn't it be against the restaurant's rules? But where can we find such waiters?" Yu Sheng was distressed.
