After arranging everything for Li Fugui, Chu Lian returned to Shibao Town. As soon as he entered his home, he heard his sister's voice.
"Brother, why are you back so soon? Weren't you going to cook for that lady?"
Chu Huan had heard from the servants that he had left with the ingredients to make "Golden Splendor." Certainly, he had gone to see that lady. Chu Huan's lips curved into a smile; her brother was still putting on a tough front, yet he had scurried off to see that lady nonetheless.
Seeing her brother not responding, Chu Huan continued to tease him, "Brother, did you fail? Did the lady not like the dish you made?"
This time Chu Lian responded, "Me, fail? What a joke."
No matter what, he had scored a victory by sending Li Fugui away, a sly smirk appearing on his face.
"…" When had her brother started smiling so sinisterly? But that implied he indeed went to see that lady, "Brother, what did the lady say? Did she like your cooking?"
