Jiang Yize went to the front desk to pay the bill, and Song Lingge ignored him and quietly ate with Yu Shaofen and the others.

Unexpectedly, after paying the bill, Jiang Yize walked straight towards them.

He stood directly in front of their table, smiling as he greeted them, "Why are you only eating now?"

"Hmm, we're only eating now," Song Lingge said dismissively.

"I discovered yesterday that the food here is quite good, but I was drinking with them the whole time, so I didn't get to really enjoy it."

"Oh, that's how it is!"

Jiang Yize kept trying to make small talk, while Song Lingge was incredibly oblivious to the situation.

After all, the main door faces outwards to do business, so there's no reason to kick customers out.

Even if she is currently just a part-time worker helping with her studies, she shouldn't do this.

"Try this dish too, it's something I recently came up with," Song Jianmei said with a smile as she carried out a plate of food.

Seeing Jiang Yize standing next to Song Lingge and the others' table, she asked, "Who's this?"

“A classmate didn’t finish paying the bill yesterday, so he came to pay it today,” Song Lingge answered first, also to remind her aunt not to say the wrong thing.

Song Jianmei already knew last night that someone had come to cause trouble, but nothing serious happened. In addition, with Song Lingge's reminder, she stayed in the kitchen and did not come out.

"Oh, eat it while it's hot, it won't taste good when it's cold." Song Jianmei put down the dishes, said a few words, and then went back to the kitchen.

"It looks really good, and it smells wonderful too," Jiang Yize praised sincerely.

Having said all that, Song Lingge and the others looked at each other in bewilderment.

"Why don't you sit down and try some? But you've already eaten, so maybe..." Song Lingge was still too shy to refuse, so seeing Jiang Yize's expression, she could only make a slight suggestion, but her refusal was already quite obvious.

However, Jiang Yize interrupted her directly: "It's okay, you'll have digested it by the time you get out of here, and you'll still be able to eat."

It seems that Jiang Yize is determined to have dinner with them.

Since things had come to this, Song Lingge and the others stopped talking and continued eating quietly.

Jiang Yize adapted quickly. He wasn't uncomfortable at all, just ate his food and occasionally commented, but it was always praise.

Seeing that everyone had almost finished eating, Jiang Yize said with a smile, "Before I came out, I called Fang Guanghua, that kid..."

Jiang Yize deliberately left his sentence unfinished, shaking his head as he got to the crucial point.

"What's wrong with him?" Yu Shaofen asked.

Although Jing Chu rejected her last night, how can one so easily dismiss feelings of affection?

Jing Chu assaulted Fang Guanghua at the store yesterday. Although Fang Guanghua was drunk at the time, given his temperament, he certainly wouldn't let it go once he sobered up and found out what happened.

Yu Shaofen was heartbroken last night, but since it concerned Jingchu, she couldn't just stand by and do nothing.

Song Lingge was in a different position and had different thoughts than her. She looked at Jiang Yize thoughtfully.

My impression of Jiang Yize in my past life was very vague, and even in this life, we had almost no interaction before yesterday.

His words just now seemed like a deliberate reminder; otherwise, given Song Lingge and the others' attitude, anyone else would have wisely left long ago.

However, he didn't say it directly, but used this method, and still wanted them to guess.

What's the purpose?

However, judging from yesterday alone, Jiang Yize has been expressing goodwill towards them.

He could have easily acted like Zhang Binbin and others, keeping to himself and not getting involved, but he didn't.

Song Lingge tugged at Yu Shaofen under the table, signaling her to calm down.

Jiang Yize noticed all these subtle actions and said with a smile, "He's in the hospital."

"What?" The three girls exclaimed in surprise, waking up Xiao Jiang and Lao Zhang who were resting. Song Jianmei also ran out from the kitchen.

She had understood Song Lingge's hint, so even after returning to the kitchen, she didn't do anything else but stayed behind the curtain to observe the movements outside.

Hearing Song Lingge and the others' exclamations, she ran out immediately.

"What happened?" Song Jianmei asked.

Song Lingge glanced at the people in the shop and decided to tell them the truth. After all, this happened in the shop, and if Fang Guanghua persisted in his accusations, the shop would definitely be implicated.

"The customer who caused trouble while drunk yesterday is in the hospital. He's the one who was beaten up by Jingchu."

Everyone immediately tensed up; this matter could be serious or minor.

Although Jingchu assaulted someone yesterday, the situation didn't seem too serious, so no one took it to heart.

I was shocked to hear that he was hospitalized, and it's hard to accept it right now.

"Is it serious?" Aunt Lu asked, her voice trembling.

For Aunt Lu, Xiao Jiang, and Lao Zhang, Song Lingge and Song Jianmei were great bosses. Everyone was happy working in the store, and the wages were quite good.

People work for stability, so if something happens at the store, it's directly related to them.

Jiang Yize noticed their worries, so he stopped smiling and became serious.

"Judging from his tone on the phone, it didn't seem too serious. I was also surprised that he was hospitalized. Since Song Lingge and I are classmates, I thought I should tell you."

Although Jiang Yize's purpose is unclear, the other person's words were indeed well-intentioned.

Song Lingge nodded to him, indicating that she appreciated his kindness.

"Everyone, please go to work without worry. This matter involves my classmate, so I'll handle it. Don't worry!" Song Lingge reassured everyone.

Actually, she's not sure about it right now.

But as the actual owner of "Delicious Songxiang", she has to shoulder the responsibility.

Fang Guanghua's hospitalization was clearly aimed at her, and she had to step forward to stabilize morale.

Yesterday, Fang Guanghua caused such a scene while drunk, and to be honest, she was also very confused.

They were husband and wife for decades, and she followed Fang Guanghua wholeheartedly for those decades. How could she not sigh with regret for the passing years?

"Jiang Yize, can you tell me the details of your conversation?" Song Lingge asked, her eyes revealing determination.

Fang Guanghua, Zhou Songmei, and Song Jianping had all been systematically scheming against Song Lingge, but those schemes were largely driven by circumstances and forced upon them.

This was the only time Fang Guanghua took the initiative.

It wasn't to help Zhou Songmei, but for his own sake.

Song Lingge's opponents seem to only now realize that their true adversary is not Song Lingge, who lives in the grudges of the previous generation, but Song Lingge, who has long been seeking revenge against them.

Fang Guanghua realized his mistake not too late, but he had already given Song Lingge enough time.

Fang Guanghua, just you wait! Song Lingge silently thought to herself.
