Quick Wear: I Fulfill the Wish of Cannon Fodder

Chapter 228 The Stepping Stone of the Writers of the Republic of China 13

Three days later, after completing the wedding ceremony, Bai Shiqiao and Lin Pianyue took their guests to Fuchun Restaurant.

Two cute little flower girls were holding small baskets of wedding candies and scattering them as they walked. The newlyweds in wedding dresses walked in the middle, followed by Bai Shiqiao's parents and the guests who were chatting.

When everyone was seated, Bai Shiqiao noticed that the figure directing the waiters to serve the dishes looked somewhat like Li Chunhong. "System, this woman is not Li Chunhong, right? Didn't I advance points so that she couldn't find a job?" He frowned, his heart full of doubts.

"The system scan shows that it is indeed Li Chunhong herself, and she does not work for anyone else. She is the owner of this restaurant." The Wenhao system only reports what it has found.

"Where does she get the money?" Bai Shiqiao couldn't help but wonder, this woman must have used her beauty to get into the boss's bed, which is why she was allowed to stay in the restaurant. The more he thought about it, the more disgusted he felt, and a trace of disgust flashed in his eyes.

After he figured it out, he deliberately took his beautiful new wife to where Li Chunhong was and offered her a glass of wine.

Lin Pianyue, who was unaware of the situation, simply thought that her husband just wanted to thank Boss Li for the carefully prepared wedding banquet, so she followed him without hesitation.

When they reached Li Chunhong, Bai Shiqiao's lips curled up slightly, revealing a sly smile. "Oh, isn't this Chunhong? I didn't expect you to have opened a restaurant in less than two months since you left the village? Could it be that you've found a new backer, or what they call a new customer?"

Bai Shiqiao's words were full of sarcasm and provocation, which made people feel a chill. When Lin Pianyue heard this, she immediately realized that something was wrong.

She frowned and looked at Li Chunhong in confusion, then turned to look at her husband beside her and asked softly, "Husband, do you know this Boss Li?"

Li Chunhong's face darkened when she heard Bai Shiqiao's words, but she managed a smile and replied, "Mrs. Bai is truly forgetful. I went to the school to look for Shiqiao a month ago."

Lin Pianyue looked at the man blankly, her heart filled with confusion. Bai Shiqiao then remembered that he had used points to make his schoolmates and girlfriend forget about this matter.

He smiled awkwardly and explained, "There's no need to talk about what happened before. Today is our big day. Normally, I should have invited you to the banquet, but I didn't expect you to be the owner of this restaurant."

Li Chunhong ignored Bai Shiqiao and looked at Lin Pianyue seriously. "Mrs. Bai, let me introduce myself to you again. I'm Li Chunhong, Bai Shiqiao's ex-wife. I didn't want to disturb your wedding banquet before, but now that Mr. Bai has come to toast, I have to make things clear with you."

After she finished speaking, she drank the wine glass in her hand.

Only then did Lin Pianyue realize that she was married for the second time. She was about to get angry and question her husband, but considering his face, she did not make a fuss. She just accompanied him to drink the wine in the glass and pretended to be magnanimous.

In her heart, she began to blame everything, but she did not dare to blame her husband. After all, in her heart and eyes, there was only the excellence of Bai Shiqiao.

Bai Shiqiao didn't intend to let Li Chunhong go, and continued to ask, "Although we are divorced, for the sake of our past relationship, I still want to remind you that being kept by someone and living a life of sexual exploitation is not a long-term solution."

His voice was not small, so much so that the other guests who entered the restaurant one after another could not help but turn their heads to look over here, and then showed contempt and disdain towards Li Chunhong.

"If you need a job, we in the Bai Mansion are still short of a cook. Why don't you break up with that old man and come work for us?" Bai Shiqiao looked at Li Chunhong, his lips slightly raised, a hint of cunning flashed in his eyes.

"Madam, what do you think? After all, we are from the same village. I really can't bear to see her fall into the trap of becoming someone else's concubine. Alas!" Bai Shiqiao deliberately raised his voice so that the surrounding guests could hear. Lin Pianyue nodded in agreement.

"Since you are my sister, it's okay to arrange a simple job for you in the mansion." Lin Pianyue said with a smile, her face full of kindness and tolerance.

The guests praised the couple's kindness and generosity, and thought they were a truly kind couple. However, the waiters at the restaurant stopped what they were doing and looked at their bosses in surprise.

Because they knew very well that the real managers of this restaurant were actually these two women, not the so-called old man or master. However, they had undergone strict training and knew that they could not easily refute the guests in such situations and could only wait for the owner to make a decision.

Li Chunhong looked at Bai Shiqiao, her face showing no sign of anxiety or anger. She gestured to the waiter to continue serving the dishes, then calmly said to Bai Shiqiao, "Mr. Bai, we hope you won't cause trouble or spread rumors in the restaurant, disrupting other guests' dining. If you continue like this, we at Fuchun Restaurant will not be able to serve you today."

However, Bai Shiqiao mistakenly thought that Li Chunhong was guilty, so he became even more complacent. He said with a smile: "Oh, I was just joking. Please don't misunderstand me, Boss Li. The wedding banquet can start now!"

Despite Bai Shiqiao's words, the guests' chatter only intensified. Bai's mother, seated at the main table, was particularly elated. Like a victorious hen, she gloated and began to fabricate bad things about Li Chunhong with the others around her. She claimed that Li Chunhong's behavior in the village was unruly, she was extremely lazy, and she was disrespectful to her parents-in-law, which was why Bai Shiqiao had divorced her.

The city dwellers rarely heard such anecdotes, so they believed Bai's mother's words without question. They asked her how she could tolerate such a daughter-in-law, and they were filled with unpleasant words. Some guests even said they would never dine at the restaurant again, finding it too filthy.

Li Chunhong was about to argue back when she suddenly saw Su Lan walking in from the door.

She had taken a special leave of absence to come and watch the play today, and even changed out of her school uniform into a beautiful dress and small leather shoes. Coupled with the original owner's elegant temperament, one couldn't help but wonder who the eldest daughter of this family was.

She walked over and said with a smile: "Oh, how come I didn't know that I was supporting you, Sister Li, hahahaha."

At this time, a clever waiter hurried over to greet Su Lan and explained to her in detail what had just happened: "Miss Su, you are here. Today the restaurant has been contracted by the Bai family for the wedding banquet, but Mr. Bai has repeatedly slandered our host family."

Su Lan nodded after hearing this, took out a dollar from her small purse and gave it to the waiter as a reward, then walked straight to Li Chunhong's side and said softly, "Sister Li, I'll take care of this matter. You go and keep an eye on the progress in the kitchen first. Don't let this matter delay Mr. Bai's banquet."

When Li Chunhong saw Su Lan appear, tears filled her eyes unconsciously. Su Lan asked her to go down first, hoping that she could adjust her mood.

Bai Shiqiao didn't recognize Su Lan at this time, and couldn't help but wonder if she was a stooge hired by Li Chunhong to try to clear her name. So, he secretly tried to contact the system to find out Su Lan's identity and background.

However, when Su Lan entered the room, she had already used her spiritual power to cleverly isolate the connection between the Wenhao system and Bai Shiqiao. No matter how Bai Shiqiao asked, he could not get any response.

"System, Wenhao system, did it crash at the critical moment?"
