Chapter 975: Chapter 975 Urgent Matters to Resolve Chapter 975: Chapter 975 Urgent Matters to Resolve “They said nothing? They just asked how our shop was burned down? Right, my dear, I told mother about my pregnancy, and after hearing it, she was overjoyed.”

Gu Ya looked at his little wife.

The little wife was pregnant.

His mother would definitely be happy.

His mother had always been hoping that the little wife would become pregnant.

Now the little wife was indeed pregnant.

How could his mother not be happy?

“Yunjin, come here.” Gu Ya stretched out his hand for the little wife to come over, and Su Yunjin obediently walked towards Gu Ya, only to be embraced by him.

Su Yunjin wrapped her arms around Gu Ya’s neck, “Dear, how did it go? Did you find out anything about our shop being burned down today?”

Gu Ya had investigated all day today.

But he hadn’t found much.

“Yunjin, there hasn’t been any progress yet,” Gu Ya secured his hold around his little wife’s waist to prevent her from slipping from his arms.

Gu Ya said he hadn’t found out anything? Su Yunjin considered that their wine shop was set off by the neighboring Oil Shop, and to uncover the truth, they could start from there.

Thus, Su Yunjin asked Gu Ya, “Dear, have you questioned the couple from the Oil Shop next door?”

What Su Yunjin had thought of, Gu Ya had as well.

“Yunjin, I have already visited that couple today.” Gu Ya had gone straight to that couple upon reaching the town. In that fire, both individuals from the neighboring couple had been injured.

And not lightly.

When Gu Ya visited, both individuals from the Oil Shop were bandaged, and the man’s back and legs were seriously burned by the fire.

“Dear? So, what did you learn from that couple’s testimony?” Su Yunjin continued her inquiry.

Gu Ya looked at his little wife, and picturing the scene at that time, he shook his head. “Yunjin, I was not able to find out anything useful; both said it was their own careless fire that led to Zuixiang Restaurant being burned down.” Was it implied by that couple that the burning of Zuixiang Restaurant was just an accident?

Su Yunjin never believed it was an accident.

Her intuition told her that the burning down of the shop was done intentionally by someone.

“Dear, do you believe it was an accident?” Su Yunjin asked Gu Ya, wanting to hear his opinion. Gu Ya also felt that the incident was not as simple as it seemed.

But so far, all the evidence pointed to an accident. Gu Ya planned to investigate further for a few more days to see if he could find any trace of evidence.

To prove it wasn’t an accident.

His large hand resting on his little wife’s head, Gu Ya spoke gently, “Yunjin, aside from me, the Magistrate and his subordinates at the Governor’s Office are also looking into the matter. Right now, we just wait and see what the County Magistrate from the Governor’s Office uncovers, alright?” That was all they could do for the time being.

Su Yunjin nodded.

Initially, Zuixiang Restaurant had signed a contract with Young Master Chu of Fuman Building to deliver fruit wine every month, and according to the contract, failing to deliver on time each month would result in double compensation for the breach. This matter was now the more troublesome one and had to be dealt with first.

“Dear, put the matter of the shop aside for now; we have something more important to deal with. We must address this issue first,” Su Yunjin said earnestly.

Seeing his little wife’s serious expression, Gu Ya asked, “Yunjin, what is it?”

“The matter of the contract.” With Su Yunjin’s reminder, Gu Ya suddenly realized. Breaching the contract would cost them double compensation, and with their shop burned down and not a single jar of fruit wine spared, they had no way to supply any wine to the other restaurants in the short term.
