Ever since being neglected by Gao He, Ye Keke had been convinced that Fang Xiaobei was the culprit. Taking advantage of Fang Xiaobei's seclusion, she sent her men to cause trouble at Fangtian Pavilion. Outside Fangtian Pavilion, Bai Ruoxue and several staff members were busy greeting guests when suddenly a group of people swarmed in. The burly man leading the group had a fierce face and menacing eyes. With a wave of his hand, his men surrounded the entrance. The burly man roared, "Hand over Fang Xiaobei!" Bai Ruoxue frowned, but calmly replied, "Fang Xiaobei is in seclusion and cannot receive guests. You should leave immediately and not disturb the other guests." The burly man sneered, and with a wave of his hand, several of his men rushed forward to force their way in.

Hearing the commotion, Xia Zhi rushed out of the restaurant. Seeing this, the burly man immediately brandished his long knife and lunged at Xia Zhi. Xia Zhi nimbly dodged his attacks, repeatedly striking his arms and shoulders with her rolling pin. Forced to retreat, the burly man, enraged, swung at Xia Zhi again. Xia Zhi sidestepped, forcefully flicking the rolling pin, striking the burly man's wrist. He cried out in pain, dropping his long knife to the ground.

The Fangtian Pavilion members also joined the battle, engaging in fierce resistance against the troublemakers. The burly man directed his men, charging this way and that, attempting to break through Fangtian Pavilion's defenses. Bai Ruoxue dodged and weaved through the chaos, constantly searching for an opportunity to counterattack. Seizing her chance, she lunged at the burly man and delivered a flying kick to his chest. The man was sent staggering back several steps, nearly falling to the ground.

Just as the troublemakers grew increasingly frenzied, and the Fangtian Pavilion members were about to be overwhelmed, Niu Zhentian rushed out from the kitchen. He gripped two gleaming kitchen knives tightly in his hands and roared, "Stop it, all of you!" Niu Zhentian's face was contorted with rage, his eyes wide, veins bulging on his forehead, and he exuded a chilling aura. He strode towards the troublemakers, knives raised. As he walked, he brandished the knives, the blades gleaming coldly in the sunlight and emitting a "whooshing" sound.

The troublemakers were startled by Niu Zhentian's sudden action, their arrogance instantly extinguished. Niu Zhentian walked up to them, pointed a cleaver at them, and said, "If you dare to cause trouble again, don't blame me for being impolite! This cleaver isn't just for show!" Looking at Niu Zhentian's fierce appearance, the troublemakers exchanged glances, then looked back at Ye Keke in the distance, hesitated for a moment, and finally slunk away from Fangtian Pavilion. Niu Zhentian stood there, watching them leave, his hand still tightly gripping the cleaver, until he was sure they wouldn't return. Everyone at Fangtian Pavilion breathed a sigh of relief when the troublemakers finally left. They all gathered around Niu Zhentian to thank him. Niu Zhentian smiled and said, "Today, thanks to these two cleavers, otherwise I really wouldn't know what to do. Next time something like this happens, everyone must unite and not let these people succeed." With that, Niu Zhentian turned and went back to the kitchen to continue his work. Fangtian Pavilion returned to its usual tranquility, as if nothing had happened.

Ye Keke was unwilling to give up so easily and was determined to make Fang Xiaobei pay the price, so she intensified her efforts to harass Fangtian Pavilion. Outside Fangtian Pavilion, the once bustling street became gloomy and oppressive. Groups of people sent by Ye Keke came one after another. Some stood at the door pointing and gesturing, while others wandered around, making a lot of noise.

The guests at Fangtiange were terrified by the frequent disturbances, and the number of customers in the once bustling restaurant decreased dramatically. Some guests turned away as soon as they reached the door and saw the commotion; others, who were eating, hurriedly paid their bills and left upon hearing the noise outside.

The staff at Fangtian Pavilion remained vigilant, ready to react at the slightest sign of trouble. Bai Ruoxue and Xia Zhi were extremely busy, trying to appease the guests while dealing with the people sent by Ye Keke.

Bai Ruoxue moved back and forth in the lobby, smiling apologetically at the customers and trying her best to explain the situation to reassure them. Every now and then, she would walk to the door, glare angrily at those causing trouble, and loudly warn them not to interfere with normal business operations.

Xia Zhi was busy in various corners of the restaurant, seeing off departing guests to the door while reminding them to be careful. She also picked up brooms and other tools, ready to deal with any potential troublemakers.

Luo Yichen was so anxious he was stamping his feet. The decline in business worried him greatly. On the one hand, he organized his employees to strengthen their defenses, and on the other hand, he kept sending messages to Ye Keke, hoping she would stop this unreasonable behavior.

Ye Keke showed no sign of stopping, continuing to instruct her subordinates to create trouble, increasing the pressure on Fangtian Pavilion and leading to a stalemate.

In early April, Fang Xiaobei finally ended her seclusion. The moment she stepped out of Fangtian Pavilion, the sunlight shone on her, bringing a touch of warmth. The people of Fangtian Pavilion had been waiting for a long time, and when they saw Fang Xiaobei emerge from seclusion, they all gathered around her.

Xia Zhi looked anxious and said urgently, "Fang Xiaobei, while you were in seclusion, Ye Keke sent a lot of people to cause trouble. They were making a huge fuss at the gate and even smashing things. We really can't handle it."

Bai Ruoxue frowned and added worriedly, "Yes, her people are causing a huge disturbance at the door, scaring away many customers and affecting our business. We've been on tenterhooks every day lately, afraid that something might happen."

Fang Xiaobei's face was solemn, her eyes were piercing, and as she listened to everyone's stories, a surge of anger welled up in her heart.

At this moment, Niu Zhentian said angrily from the side, "Who knows what's wrong with her? She must not like us and is deliberately causing trouble."

Fang Xiaobei shook her head slightly, her gaze firm, and said, "This matter is not so simple; there must be some reason behind it. I will go to Ye Keke and ask her clearly. We absolutely cannot let her continue to act recklessly like this."

Xia Zhi quickly said, "Fang Xiaobei, you have to be careful. Ye Keke is coming in strong this time, and she probably won't let this go easily."

Fang Xiaobei nodded slightly and said, "Don't worry, I'll handle it carefully. Everyone has worked hard these past few days. You all take a rest, I'll go and deal with this matter."

After saying that, he dismissed everyone and softly called to Xiao Zha, who was sunbathing on the roof.

"Little scum, come down quickly, I need to talk to you!" Fang Xiaobei shouted towards the roof.

Little Zha stretched out its paws, lazily opened its eyes, and then scurried down from the roof to Fang Xiaobei's side.

Fang Xiaobei gently patted Xiao Zha's head, her eyes full of anticipation. "Xiao Zha, how's the evidence we collected about Gao He's strategist instructing Wang Lao Er to take the beggar to Ye's Delicacies Pavilion for a meal and then poison him?" Xiao Zha meowed, flicked its tail, and a blue light flashed, revealing detailed information in mid-air.

Little Zha tapped the documents with its paw and said in a childish voice, "Master, all the evidence is here! The arsenic in the porcelain bottle, and the detailed circumstances of Wang Lao Er and the beggar's poisoning. In addition, there is irrefutable evidence that Gao He sent someone to bribe the jailer to deliver poisoned wine to Wang Lao Er. Also, Gao He was responsible for Ye Keke's difficult childbirth and the stillbirth." After Little Zha finished speaking, it shook its fur and continued, "And also, you were the one who sent the note to Ye Keke, telling her all of this."

Fang Xiaobei looked at the evidence with satisfaction, her expression solemn. "Okay, Xiao Zha, organize this evidence properly. We're going to prepare for the challenges ahead."

"By the way, help me find that old beggar, the one we took in and who works as a waiter at Fangtian Pavilion. I need him to come with us!" Fang Xiaobei whispered to Xiaozha, instructing it to lure the old beggar over.

"Ye Keke, it's time to meet her!"
