Song Biyun looked aggrieved. "I never expected to run into Song Ruozhen by such a coincidence. We don't get along well and have been at odds since we were little."

She was clearly deliberately making things difficult for me today; it's absolutely despicable!

"Huai'an, you can't blame me! You saw how she bullied me today. She was a completely different person in front of me than in front of Chu Muyao!"

As she spoke, Song Biyun pressed herself against Lu Huai'an, saying, "I was the one who got together with you first. Today, I watched you coax Chu Muyao, and I felt so bad."

Feeling the softness against his arm, Lu Huai'an became somewhat distracted, and his voice softened a little:

“I know I’ve wronged you, but you also know my current situation. If I don’t fight for my own way out, how will I ever get ahead if I’m suppressed by my eldest brother?”

"Huai'an, actually I don't really care whether you will be successful or not."

Although our family is not as good as the Song family, my parents will not treat me too badly when I get married. Although you are a son of a concubine, isn't your mother very much loved by your father?

"If we get married, we should be able to live a good life," Song Biyun couldn't help but say.

In fact, at first, she had thought that if Lu Huai'an married the princess and became the prince consort, he would naturally rise to prominence and even have a place in the court.

However, seeing his relationship with Chu Muyao getting better and better, and the fact that he hadn't even done some things for her, she couldn't help but feel sad.

It shouldn't be like this!

Upon hearing this, Lu Huai'an's eyes darkened, and he said, "Biyun, you should know my situation very well. What can a son of a concubine do, no matter how capable he is?"

These days, it's so difficult to even buy a restaurant. What future can one expect?

We've known each other for so many years, you know exactly what I'm thinking. Don't you want to help me?

"That's not what I meant. It's just that seeing you and the princess so close makes me feel bad."

Song Biyun was filled with jealousy and couldn't help but wonder why Song Ruozhen could openly be seen with Prince Chu while she had to hide behind him, even though they were of the same status.

She and Huai'an were clearly together first, but now they can only hide from each other!

"I was just pretending. You should know very well that I only like you."

Lu Huai'an pulled Song Biyun into his arms and coaxed her gently, "Just wait for me patiently. After I marry the princess and rise to prominence, I will take you as my second wife!"

“But she is, after all, a secondary wife…” Song Biyun said somewhat reluctantly.

"Think about it carefully, which is more noble, being the principal wife of a useless person or being the concubine of a noble person?"

Besides, you know I only have eyes for you. Chu Muyao is just a pawn we're using; there's no need to pay her any attention.

Song Biyun's mood improved somewhat. "So you really won't change your mind in the future? The princess is so beautiful, maybe you..."

"will not."

Lu Huai'an interrupted her without hesitation, "I only like you."

Song Biyun stared intently at Lu Huai'an and said, "You must never change your mind. If you ever do, I'll drag you down with me and we'll die together!"

"Of course not."

Lu Huai'an didn't take it to heart at all, only thinking that Song Biyun was really a bit crazy, that she could even say such things.

"Is your relationship with your cousin really that bad? Today I felt like she could see right through us in her eyes."

In my opinion, it would be better if we didn't meet for the next few days, to avoid arousing suspicion, otherwise all our efforts would be in vain.

"No way?" Song Biyun felt a little uneasy. She had never thought that Song Ruozhen was anything special. Although she was from a well-to-do family, she was rigid and she didn't take her seriously at all.

However, Song Ruozhen has truly undergone an astonishing transformation during this period.

"We've already bought the restaurant, what are we going to do now?"

“Of course we will continue to operate.” Lu Huai’an said thoughtfully, “I will leave this matter to you. Even if the princess asks, just say that it is a business we are running together.”

Song Biyun was relieved to see that Lu Huai'an still allowed her to run the shop.

"Luckily, we managed to snatch the restaurant today. Otherwise, our business would have been ruined if Song's Barbecue Shop had opened here," Song Biyun said smugly.

Lu Huai'an frowned slightly. "Didn't you say you were going to poach people from the Song family's shop? Haven't you succeeded yet?"

"Don't worry, leave this to me, there won't be any problem!"

Song Biyun smiled slightly, but in her heart she thought that the Song family really had good methods. The people in the shop were all in their hands, so they couldn't be poached at all.

However, she has already sent people to keep an eye on the area regularly, to see firsthand how they do it, so it's definitely not difficult!

Actually, she didn't understand either. It's just grilling meat and then sprinkling some salt, chili, or something like that on top. It's so easy to make!

When their business becomes booming, her family will start to look at her differently!

……

Over the next two days, Song Ruozhen learned from Song Jingshen that Song Biyun and the other person had slightly renovated the restaurant and then directly hung up the sign for Lu's Barbecue Shop.

"Fifth sister, you are truly a prophet! The signboard for Lu's Barbecue Shop has already been hung up!"

Song Jingshen clicked his tongue in amazement, "You mean the Song family has fallen to this level? Since Song Biyun is so open-minded, why doesn't she just hang up the Song family's signboard instead of the Lu family's signboard?"

“Her relationship with Lu Huai’an is unusual. This shop of yours should be a joint venture between them, and Song Biyun should have contributed some of the money.”

Song Ruozhen pondered for a moment before asking, "Fourth brother, have you found out the information?"

"I've found out that Lu Huai'an and Song Biyun's relationship is indeed unusual, but not many people know about it. They must be deliberately hiding it."

It's not surprising that Lu Huai'an wanted to climb the social ladder through the princess, but I really can't understand what our cousin was thinking. Giving up the man she liked, abandoning the position of the principal wife, just to become a concubine?

Song Ruozhen shook her head with a sigh, "She's too clever for her own good. If she hadn't seen through it sooner, she would have been the one to suffer."

The original owner of the book had a tragic life because she met Lin Zhiyue, a scumbag. Song Biyun was also infatuated with this scumbag. As far as this kind of despicable man is concerned, whether he succeeds or not, Song Biyun will not have a good ending.

After all, Qin Shuangshuang could at least control Lin Zhiyue, but Song Biyun... clearly couldn't control Lu Huai'an.

"Fifth Sister, what should we do next?"

Song Ruozhen shrugged. "It's simple. Once they open, we'll open too."
