Chapter 681 There is a woman in Ling Sanlang's room

He had already tried forceful methods, but they clearly didn't work, so now he could only come here to discuss it.

"I...I came here to discuss with you whether the two companies can cooperate and achieve a win-win situation."

Du Mingxian looked at the newcomer, whose eyes darted around furtively. He didn't seem like a particularly generous owner, even though this person had sent someone over to try his dishes yesterday.

They might pull some dirty tricks later, and the person they sent to set the fire last night could also be the one in front of us.

She didn't offer her a seat, and casually looked up, saying, "Cooperation? How do we cooperate?"

"Here's the thing, you see we both run restaurants, how about we divide the dishes between our two businesses? The dishes we sell, you don't sell, and the dishes you sell, we don't sell. How about that?"

"Everyone can go to whichever restaurant they prefer; it's fair to us."

Du Mingxian rolled her eyes speechlessly. "You've planned this quite well." She handed the menu that the restaurant had specially prepared to the customer. "Take a look and see which of our dishes you have?"

The man took it and glanced at it, his face turning green instantly. It was true... He had things that others didn't, and others had things that he didn't.

"Actually, the dishes are all the same, they just have different names."

"That proves it's different. There are two other restaurants that also operate. Although we are competitors, we can compete fairly. Instead of thinking about other things, you should focus on improving your dishes. For a restaurant, the dishes are the key."

The man clearly wouldn't listen to Du Mingxian's words. Seeing that she was unwilling to talk, he was a little angry. But thinking of the person who had been taken away, he couldn't help but remind her, "You guys are too ruthless. A woman leaving a man nowhere to hide on the street is simply a shrew."

"So what?" Du Mingxian simply shrugged. "She was able to fight, which proves she's capable. And why should we only hit that person and not someone else?"

"Naturally, it's because he committed arson, which is murder. Let's see how the magistrate sentences him."

"How could it be murder? It was just a joke. Besides, the fire was discovered before it was even lit, and you still wouldn't let it go. You really don't give anyone any way out." The man's face was particularly bad when he said this.

Du Mingxian sneered, "What, you came here to say all this, to plead for that man?"

"That's not true."

"If there isn't anything, why are you saying all this? Did you eat too much salty radish?"

Realizing that Du Mingxian was insulting him, he was so angry that his hands trembled. "You... how could you talk like that?"

"First of all, I disagree with what you've proposed. Secondly, since the other party bullied us, it's not wrong for my men to fight back. Don't use your saintly mindset to judge others. If you feel it's acceptable, I can also have my men bring that man back."

“He failed to burn down our restaurant last night, so he can just burn down yours today. It’s not a big deal.”

"You... are vulgar." The man managed to utter this word after a long pause. In fact, he had many words he wanted to say, but because... Du Mingxian was staring at him, he couldn't say anything, and he swallowed the words he wanted to say.

Du Mingxian ignored her, "It works for us, but not for you. You've really mastered the double standard. Goodbye."

The man wanted to say something, but Du Mingxian was already flipping through the account book and completely ignored him. After holding back for a long time, the man could only turn around and leave.

Watching the person leave, Du Mingxian narrowed her eyes and fell into deep thought.

Business was even better on the second day than on the first. Some people even came to ask if the soap they received yesterday was still available, and if they would receive it again today. They said they had used it last night and found it very effective, and they wanted more today.

Du Mingxian had made preparations well in advance. Today, there would be people selling soap there, but the soap bars they were selling were much bigger than the ones they were giving away, and the prices were also very attractive.

Some people ordered two extra dishes at the restaurant just to get a few bars of soap. They also heard that the restaurant had wine, so they ordered several jugs, but they didn't drink it. Instead, they took it with them, just to get a few bars of soap for free.

After a wonderful start yesterday, today is even busier. Fortunately, the kitchen has prepared a lot of food, which is enough to keep us going until the evening. Before closing time, some people still wanted to come in for dinner, but I regret to inform them that they should come back tomorrow.

Du Mingxian was about to go home after finishing her work, but Ling Silang had not returned yet, so she told her family that she was going to the Xu family.

The Xu family home was also very lively today.

When Ling Silang arrived at the Xu family's house in the morning, trouble still had happened.

The woman who did the embroidery had slept in the same bed with Ling Sanlang last night. When Ling Silang arrived this morning, he thought no one was inside, but when he opened the door, he saw... the woman sleeping in Ling Sanlang's arms.

Fortunately, before entering the room, he was afraid that Ling Sanlang would not have a good bed or clothes, so he did not bring the child in. When he saw the bed like this, his face immediately darkened.

He closed the door and watched Ling Babao talking to Xu Tingting. He said, "Little Ba, let Sister Tingting take you to play in the street. When you're done playing, come to our restaurant."

Ling Babao was a little confused. "Uncle, didn't I come here to see Father? And didn't you tell me to stay here? Why are you telling me to go to the restaurant?"

Ling Silang gave Xu Tingting a look before slowly explaining to Ling Babao, "Little Ba, you don't come to the county often. Your sister Tingting is very familiar with this place. There are many fun things to do outside. Why don't you come with me and have some fun?"

"Anyway, your dad hasn't woken up yet. You can go to our restaurant, have your fun, and then come back, right? Your dad isn't going to run away anyway."

Going out to play is very tempting for children. Ling Babao used to live in the county, but she never had the chance to go out and play. She stayed in the backyard of the shop every day, doing whatever chores she could manage. Now that she has the opportunity to go out and play, she wants to go too.

Xu Tingting received a look from Ling Silang, not understanding what it meant, but still cooperated, "Sister Xiaoba will take you out to play. I know a store with really pretty hair ties."

"Really? It's even prettier than what my mother makes?"

"This older sister doesn't know, but we'll find out if we go and take a look together."

"Okay, okay."

Xu Tingting turned and left with Xiao Ba. She had only taken two steps when Ling Silang was about to enter the room. He had just turned around and placed his hand on the door but hadn't yet pushed it open when a woman's exclamation came from inside.

The courtyard wasn't large, and the woman's scream was thin and long, quite startling.

Xu Tingting was also shocked, but she reacted quickly and instantly understood why Ling Silang had asked her to take Xiao Ba away.

Xiao Ba turned around and asked, puzzled, "Uncle, isn't Dad living in here? How come a woman's voice is coming from here?"
