Chapter 305: Chapter 305: Visiting

"Hexiu?"

Madam Zeng couldn’t wait for Hexiu to speak, feeling somewhat irritated, she asked impatiently.

"Madam, the owner of the Sanwei Diner is a woman."

"I’m aware of that, did she say something?" Madam Zeng’s anger was evident, she allowed Nana to go because she heard that the owner of Sanwei Diner was woman, but an incident occurred.

She could assume that the owner simply wanted to use a lady’s building as a gimmick to make money from them!

"The woman said they will cease the business from tomorrow to renovate the lady’s building, and invite the young miss for the inauguration." Recognizing the growing anger on the Madam’s face, Hexiu hastily explained while kneeling on the floor.

Madam Zeng originally intended to have her husband sue if the owner of the Sanwei Diner couldn’t produce a satisfying solution, but upon hearing what Hexiu said, she appeared somewhat in disbelief.

"Did she truly say that? Don’t deceive me." Madam Zeng appeared skeptical, not believing Hexiu’s words.

At this time, the Women’s Lou at Sanwei must be the best place for business, how could it possibly shut down?

Could they be trying to fool this little Hexiu first?

"Madam, the owner indeed said so." Afraid of her disbelief, Hexiu explained further.

Madam Zeng was now somewhat confused, could she have misunderstood something?

While she was thinking, Miss Zeng on the bed furrowed her brows slightly, causing Madam Zeng to feel a pang of heartache. She motioned Hexiu to leave with a wave of her hand.

"Alright, withdraw for now and inform me when the master returns."

"Yes, madam."

After paying her respects, Hexiu finally stood up and exited the room.

Looking at the restless daughter on the bed, Madam Zeng was filled with sorrow, wiping away the tears she sat silently by the side.

Poor Nana.

Lin Nanzhi took Shen Yuntian to Jihe Hall.

Wang Jingzhi was performing acupuncture on an old man, and showed surprise at seeing Lin Nanzhi and Shen Yuntian. After the acupuncture session, he came over and said: "Sister Nanzhi, what brings you here?"

Although he was addressing Lin Nanzhi, his gaze kept drifting towards Shen Yuntian.

Who is this person? And he looks somewhat familiar.

"Are you busy at this moment? I have a favor to ask you." Nanzhi glanced at the old man and hesitated a bit.

She initially wanted Wang Jingzhi to accompany her to the Zeng Residence.

After all, since Miss Zeng was frail and harassed by thugs, having a doctor examine her would be comforting.

However, it looked like Wang Jingzhi was rather busy at the moment.

"I’m not too busy. If I can be of service, let me straighten things up." Wang Jingzhi was about to wipe his hands, but Lin Nanzhi stopped him.

"A young miss was frightened. I want to invite you to check her pulse to reassure her. If you’re busy, I’ll seek another doctor from a different medical hall."

"There’s no hurry here. My master is resting, so I’m filling in for him temporarily. Since there’s something you need from me, please wait. I’ll wake my master up, then accompany you." Without waiting for Lin Nanzhi’s response, Wang Jingzhi glanced at the old man, then hurried off to the back yard.

"Jingzhi seems a bit different now." Shen Yuntian broke the silence as he watched the young boy leave, his tone full of contemplation.

"Yes, he has grown up." Nanzhi agreed.

It was not just about growing up, Wang Jingzhi was now miles away from the shy young boy he used to be.

"Where is Dr. Wang?" Shen Yuntian suddenly thought of the kind old man, but stopped his words as they were about to come out.

Thier mother hadn’t managed to hang on, Dr. Wang probably didn’t either...

Old Sun was already sixty-three this year, and his body was not as good as before. He was resting in the backyard when he heard his young disciple shouting at the door.

"Master, Master?"

"What is it?" As Old Sun sat on the bed, he asked while putting the last piece of candy into his mouth.

These days, his little apprentice had been strictly monitoring his diet, forbidding him from eating sweets. This piece was hard-won, having been brought to him by Old Qian at his request. He mustn’t let Jingzhi see it.

"Master, I’m coming in!" Wang Jingzhi announced, already pushing through the door. He was greeted with the sight of his master’s shocked face.

"Jingzhi, what... what’s wrong?" the master muttered, stuttering with a piece of candy lodged in his mouth.

"Master, what’s in your mouth?"

"Nothing... Jingzhi, what’s the matter?"

"I need to step out. There’s someone in the Main Hall who needs acupuncture treatment. I’ve already inserted the needles. I’ll need you to keep an eye on them." Wang Jingzhi explained, dropping any suspicions.

"Go ahead, go ahead, I’ll take care of everything here. You go first."

"Oh."

Although he found his master’s behaviour to be odd, Wang Jingzhi still nodded and exited the room.

Left alone, the old master heaved a sigh of relief.

"Sister Nanzhi, let’s go." Wang Jingzhi said, his medicine box already strapped to his back.

"I’m sorry for the trouble." Nanzhi said, feeling somewhat embarrassed.

"No trouble at all, Sister Nanzhi. Let’s go," Wang Jingzhi reassured her with a wave of his hand.

He owed much to the Lin family, and it was Nanzhi and Miaomiao who had saved him. What trouble could there be?

"Sister Nanzhi, who is he?"

As they walked, Wang Jingzhi became curious about the man following them and decided to ask.

"Take a closer look," Nanzhi said, giggling.

Taking her words as a clue, Wang Jingzhi observed the man carefully.

"You are... Brother Yuntian?" he called out to Shen Yuntian, stupefied by the scar on his face for a moment, filled with disbelief.

"Jingzhi, long time no see," Shen Yuntian greeted him, a rare smile on his face.

The two of them were from the same village. Though they were three or four years apart, they had played together as children.

"Brother Yuntian, when did you come to Yan City? How could I not know?" Wang Jingzhi was delighted to see his childhood friend.

"I came last month and have been working in the Three Flavours Residence ever since," Shen Yuntian shrugged, informing him.

"Sister Nanzhi, why didn’t you tell me?" Wang Jingzhi accused.

"I forgot," Nanzhi laughed, spotting a chicken vendor by the roadside and quickly buying one.

Miss Zeng was frightened; she naturally needed to replenish her energy.

She thought that old hen was perfect!

Early in the morning, Mr. Zeng had gone out to the manor in the outskirts of the city, and on his return, he met Nanzhi and the others standing at his doorstep.

Noting they were carrying things and were accompanied by men and women, Mr. Zeng assumed they were visiting relatives and came down from the carriage to greet them.

"Mr. Zeng!"

Nanzhi recognized Mr. Zeng right away and greeted him cheerfully.

Wang Jingzhi and Shen Yuntian stood behind Nanzhi.

Realizing his misunderstanding, a fleeting embarrassment crossed Mr. Zeng’s face before he asked, "Who might you be?"

"Mr. Zeng, I’m the owner of Three Flavours Residence, Lin Nanzhi."

Nanzhi introduced herself with a smile.

"The owner of the Three Flavours Residence?" Mr. Zeng glanced at the butler who stood by his side.

The Zeng’s butler quickly whispered, "Sir, that’s the restaurant where Miss wanted to go today."

"Ah, Miss Lin. What brings you to my residence?"
