Wow! My wife is beautiful and obedient, everyone envies her!

As the night deepened, the howling of the wind and snow outside became increasingly terrifying.

Qi Yuan and Noah were adults and didn't pay much attention to the sound of the wind on a snowy night.

But Petty was still a child, at an age where she was easily frightened, and even the slightest unusual sound could terrify her.

Qi Yuan really likes the little girl, Petty.

There is no other reason.

It's simply a matter of liking the cubs.

He agreed to let the little girl sleep with him tonight.

The little girl crawled into bed and nestled between the two of them, placing the plush bear in the middle, then pressing her little bottom against Noah's arm.

Noah sensed that the little girl was trying to get rid of him, so he slapped her bottom.

"Go to sleep, behave yourself."

"Uncle, go back to your room and sleep."

Petty Jr. immediately told them to leave.

Noah's forehead veins throbbed slightly. "Why should I go back to my own room to sleep?"

"Because you never let me sleep here, if I sleep here, you can't sleep here!"

The little girl is settling scores later.

Noah frowned. "I didn't sleep with you before because I was afraid you would wet my bed and I didn't want to change your diapers."

Upon hearing this, the little girl reacted like a cat whose tail had been stepped on, bristling with anger: "I don't wet the bed! I haven't wet the bed for years!"

"How old are you? You haven't wet the bed for years?"

Children have a weak concept of time; perhaps at Petty's age, they don't even have a concept of time at all.

The little girl raised her hand, counting each finger one by one. In the end, she didn't know how much time had passed, but she stubbornly showed her ten fingers to Noah, "So many years!"

"You're not even as old as your fingers, it seems I need to hire a tutor who's good at math for you."

Although the child is only five and a half years old, his education cannot be neglected.

Noah thought to himself.

Patty scoffed, "Anyway, I don't wet the bed anymore!"

After saying that, she snuggled into Qi Yuan's arms.

Noah said, "Okay, if you don't wet the bed, I'll reluctantly let you sleep with me for one night."

Noah's smug voice had a "you should be grateful" vibe to it. Qi Yuan watched the two bickering, one big and one small, but didn't get involved. He continued to record what the restaurant was going to sell.

the next day.

As Kyle had predicted, after having breakfast, Qi Yuan asked to go to the restaurant.

Kyle had spoken to Noah about this beforehand, so Noah allowed him to go out.

Furthermore, Noah instructed Kyle to find two more handsome boys.

Xiu stayed at Davis's house and asked Kyle to find two handsome boys.

His actions truly baffled the people of Juecheng.

Chad dismissed the servant's report, turned to his father sitting at his desk, and asked, "Dad, has Noah finally figured things out? He's been bringing handsome boys into the Davis family one after another."

Ryan's deep eyes turned cold. "He can go looking for women whenever he wants, he's obsessed with men and has no interest in anything else. That gives us a better chance of crushing him."

"Noah's been acting strangely lately, Dad. They found the guy who set fire to your factory. He's a young man who killed his father to avenge his girlfriend, and I heard he's quite good-looking. Noah spared his life and put his hunting dog, Andrei, in his care. Do you think Noah has taken a liking to that guy?"

The hound was loyal to the lord of the Davis family.

As long as they are the head of the Davis family, they will obey orders unconditionally and will not care who has taken the position of head of the family.

For them, loyalty belonged only to the head of the household.

For this reason, hunting dogs almost never betray their master, making it extremely difficult to plant spies among them.

However, the arsonist was being interrogated in a factory, and Chad's informant witnessed the interrogation and learned of the incident.

Noah prefers men.

A young and handsome boy committed such a grave mistake against the Davis family, yet Noah didn't kill him. Chad even wondered if Noah had feelings for him.

"In your eyes, is Noah the kind of person who would disregard everything else just because he likes a guy?" Ryan asked.

Chad paused for a moment, then countered, "Isn't that right?"

“If that’s the case, then the head of the Davis family isn’t him, but me.” Ryan looked at him coldly. “Chad, don’t belittle someone just because you dislike them, because you’re indirectly insulting yourself as well.”

Chad's expression immediately turned somewhat ugly.

For a moment, I couldn't say anything.

"It doesn't matter who Noah likes; our goal is to reclaim the position of head of the Davis family. However, lately I've been finding it a bit pointless. Instead of trying to take the positions left by those old men, we might as well build a new chair ourselves!"

After saying this, a fierce glint appeared in Ryan's eyes.

Chad stood there, stunned, upon hearing his father's ambitious words.

The power in the North Continent has been almost entirely divided among the four major families. Even if Ryan were to create a new powerful family under the pressure of these four families, it might not be possible.

"Dad, what should we do?"

Looking at his stupid son, Ryan's eyes were full of disdain, and he didn't bother to say anything.

*****

Qi Yuan arrived at the restaurant early in the morning.

The restaurant has been cleaned spotless.

The items requested from the Robinson family have been delivered.

The homeless people that Qiyuan took in yesterday have cleaned themselves up.

Qi Yuan checked their hands again and saw the dirt under their fingernails.

The most basic requirement people have for a restaurant is cleanliness.

The shop, ingredients, kitchen, and staff all need to be clean.

A dirty restaurant makes customers not want to enter even from the outside.

These rough men used to work on construction sites, facing the soil and working under the sun, their bodies always covered in mud, and they were never really clean.

When Qi Yuan demanded that they be absolutely clean, they looked hesitant. Qi Yuan said coldly, "If you can't do it, you can leave now."

After he finished speaking, the homeless people stood still.

Because they know.

This is the Davis family's restaurant.

Working in other shops could mean facing the possibility of the shop suddenly closing down, the owner running off with the money, leaving them penniless and homeless.

Working in one of the four major families' shops is like having a secure job – the salary is high, and there's no fear of the shop going out of business.

Many people work in the Davis family's stores for two or three decades, and after retirement, they can live a more comfortable life than many others.

Qi Yuan's request was difficult.

But they gritted their teeth and persevered.

Trim your nails and then wash them clean.

Rub your skin until it turns red, making sure you are clean, before walking up to Qi Yuan.

When Qi Yuan saw that the homeless people were clean enough to meet his standards, he led them to the kitchen and asked, "Who among you has good knife skills? Who makes decent desserts? You can step forward."

The homeless men looked at each other, and then eight people stepped forward.
