Seeing cakes sell so well and taste so delicious every day, she was green with envy.

Li Rong’er, like a lady of high status, walked around the Xiao Mansion.

Upon seeing Xiao Yishan return from looking for a shopfront, she asked, “Brother Xiao, have you found a suitable shopfront?”

“Large storefronts for rent are too expensive to run a restaurant, and it’s also hard to find a suitable location for a small restaurant at short notice,” Xiao Yishan said.

“Third brother’s forty shops are all on the main street, which are now very bustling.

I should have rented one from him when they were available; they’re all taken now.”

“Brother Xiao, there are actually quite a few restaurants and eateries in town,” Li Rong’er looped her arm through his.

“Why not ask third brother to instruct his chef to teach us how to make cakes?”

Xiao Yishan’s facial expression soured.

“Third brother said that the cake recipe is something Yue’er came up with on her own.

There are many outside who want the recipe; he won’t teach it.”

“We live in the mansion; there’s always a way to find out,” Li Rong’er said with covetous eyes.

“The cake house has hired several new chefs; the business is so good that I think it’s making a thousand taels a day.

How else can you make that much money?”

“That’s Yue’er’s capability.”

“You saved Xiao Yuchuan’s life; without you, he would have died in that cold pool long ago…”

“Stop bringing this up,” he said.

“Qingyue is right; I am merely employed by her.

Without me, with Qingyue still around, Yuchuan would not have died at all.”

“Humph, just because she said he wouldn’t die, you believe it.

She’s not omnipotent,” Li Rong’er saw his expression darken and shut her mouth, not daring to say more.

She said she would take a walk in town to see if there were any suitable shopfronts and left by herself.

Passing by New Moon Cake House, seeing the long line of customers scrambling to buy cakes, and the three waiters weighing cakes and taking payments, it truly was booming business.

She noticed that Xiao Yuchuan and Su Qingyue were not in the cake shop, only the waiters, so she walked in.

The three waiters, knowing she was to become Xiao Yishan’s concubineaEUR”even though she was just a concubine, in the end, she was the boss’s brother’s womanaEUR”greeted her politely.

Li Rong’er continued to walk toward the kitchen.

One of the waiters stopped her, “Second Lady, the boss has ordered that no one except the cake-making chefs is permitted in the kitchen.”

“Oh, my hands are a bit dirty; I just need to wash them and then I’ll come back out.” She was actually interested in seeing how the cakes were made.

“There is water in the kitchen next door at the restaurant; please move there,” said a waiter politely.

“I want to go in here; what of it?” She ignored them and headed towards the kitchen, but after only a few steps, one of the waiters pulled her out, “Second Lady, the boss has ordered that apart from himself and the shopkeeper lady, no one else can enter the kitchen of the cake house to prevent anyone from trying to peek at the cake recipe.”

“What a joke!

Do I look like someone who would peek?” she shouted.

“I just want to wash my hands!”

“Please, move next door to the restaurant,” said the waiter accordingly.

Li Rong’er, seeing the queue of customers looking at her, felt a bit embarrassed.

Clearing her throat with a cold ‘hmm’, she left the shopfront.

After leaving the shopfront, she was fuming as she walked on the street, growing angrier the more she thought about it.

Su Qingyue, a woman who had been bought, how could she have so much money!

And she, Li Rong’er, wasn’t even Xiao Yishan’s concubine yet.

She had been very eager to be married off; now, she was in no hurry at all.

Compared to Xiao Yuchuan, Xiao Yishan was lacking in every aspect.

If she was to be a concubine, she would choose to be Xiao Yuchuan’s concubine!
