Chapter 1232: Seeing Qi Zhenbai Again
Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
After leaving the Yu residence, Chi Shuyan took a taxi back. At first, Teacher Yu was a little worried. After all, it was a little late now. If Yu Sheng had a car, he would have sent this student back himself. In the end, he remembered that this student was extraordinarily capable, so he let it be.
Chi Shuyan took a taxi to Imperial Restaurant. It was almost 11pm, and most of the customers should have left by now.
Business at Imperial Restaurant was actually always good, but Chef Li specially set the last time for orders at 9:30pm. Otherwise, given his cooking, there would probably still be many customers coming in after that to eat.
Forty minutes later, the car stopped in front of Imperial Restaurant. Chi Shuyan took out her phone to pay, and found that there were countless more missed calls.
She paid, got out of the car, and tapped on the phone screen.
Sure enough!
There were so many missed calls from Qi Zhenbai.
Chi Shuyan didn’t understand why this man was suddenly calling her like crazy and why he was looking for her. Logically speaking, the two of them had already cut ties.
Moreover, if Qi Zhenbai really had the heart previously and had demonstrated even one-thousandth of what he was doing now, the two of them wouldn’t have ended up like this.

After Chi Shuyan got out of the car, she stared at her phone screen for a long time and sighed. She was about to put her phone back into her pocket, when her phone rang again. It was Qi Zhenbai.
Chi Shuyan stared at her phone for a while and really didn’t want to answer it at all. She decisively hung up, stuffed the phone back into her pocket, and walked into Imperial Restaurant.
Sure enough, there was no one else in the restaurant except for a few kitchen hands. Chi Shuyan went in and looked for Chef Li.
She had been to Imperial Restaurant a few times and had her own private room. In addition, Chef Li’s attitude toward her had always been different. The chef immediately took her to Chef Li in the kitchen.
Chef Li was respectful and happy to see Chi Shuyan. He hurriedly stopped what he was doing and called out, “Miss Shuyan! Why are you here? Are you hungry? What do you want to eat? I’ll make it for you!”
Chef Li’s days now were very fulfilling, and he liked how everyone liked eating his cooking. This gave him a sense of accomplishment.
Chef Li knew that if it wasn’t for Miss Shuyan, he wouldn’t be able to have such a good life.
Chef Li had always cooked exclusively for Miss Shuyan after she caught him. Now, however, he was the head chef of a restaurant and couldn’t cook for Miss Shuyan alone. To be honest, this made him feel quite guilty.
Chi Shuyan looked around. She was puzzled when she didn’t see Li Yu and Han Yu.
Chef Li hurriedly said cheerfully, “Miss Shuyan, Ninth Prince and Han Yu were tired, so I let the two children rest first.”
Although Chef Li was very pleased with opening a restaurant, he didn’t dare really tire his Ninth Prince out.
Chi Shuyan nodded. Chef Li asked her what she wanted to eat; he would immediately make it.
Chi Shuyan really didn’t have much of an appetite now, so she said, “There’s no need. Chef Li, I came to tell you that I’ll be staying at the villa with you guys tonight. I came to see you guys on the way and also to let you know.”
Chef Li was very excited about Miss Shuyan’s decision to return to the villa. In any case, in his heart, Miss Shuyan was especially good-tempered and easy to please. Moreover, with her around, Chef Li felt safer. At the thought of how that evil cultivator had come to the villa and they had been captured and had almost died at his hands, Chef Li still had lingering trauma.
Thinking of the restaurant, however, Chef Li was silent for a while before he suddenly said, “Miss Shuyan, can you give me a few more days? When the time comes, I’ll hand the restaurant over to someone else.”
“Why do you have to give it to someone else? Chef Li, no matter how busy you were before or will be in the future, you don’t have to worry about me. However, I’ll have to trouble you with three meals a day,” Chi Shuyan said.
Chef Li was pleasantly surprised and in disbelief. He had thought that when Miss Shuyan returned to the villa, he would definitely become her exclusive imperial chef. He didn’t think she would let him stay at the restaurant.
How could Chi Shuyan not see through Chef Li’s thoughts? He was very happy and content, and she also felt gratified.
Right, she still didn’t know who had opened the restaurant for Chef Li.

Given Chef Li’s cooking, she felt that the person behind this would probably make a killing.
Of course, Chi Shuyan wasn’t envious of the restaurant’s profits. She just didn’t want her own people to suffer, so she made up her mind to ask Chef Li about it.
Seeing that Chef Li was still busy with tomorrow’s matters, Chi Shuyan didn’t disturb him. She prepared to take the two little guys with her and go back to the villa first.
Before Chi Shuyan left, Chef Li suddenly thought of something and hurriedly said, “By the way, Miss Shuyan, someone has been waiting for you in a private room!”
Chi Shuyan: … Who would be waiting for her?
Chef Li originally wanted to say the other party’s name, but he remembered that the person had told him not to tell Miss Shuyan, so he could only give up and take her to the private room.
In any case, that person had an extraordinary relationship with Miss Shuyan. If it wasn’t because of Miss Shuyan, the other party wouldn’t have helped Chef Li to open this restaurant.
Chi Shuyan racked her brain and couldn’t think of anyone who would be looking for her at this time. Seeing that Chef Li was going to personally take her upstairs, Chi Shuyan told him to do his own thing and to just tell her the number of the private room. She was also familiar with this place.
Chef Li gave her the number. Chi Shuyan nodded and went upstairs.
When she found the private room, she knocked on the door. When she didn’t hear any movement inside, she pushed the door open and went in. When she saw the tall, expressionless man sitting inside, Chi Shuyan’s face changed slightly.
Who else could it be, but Qi Zhenbai?
Chi Shuyan thought that she had entered the wrong room. She raised her foot and was about to leave, but before she could do so, the tall man seemed to instantly ‘teleport’ to her side, and he grabbed her wrist fiercely, almost breaking the bones in them.
