Yu Daochen glanced at Yu Yijun, who was blinking her big eyes beside him, and smiled faintly.
One had to admit, who wouldn't love such a cute little girl.
"Since Miss Han says so, I'll shamelessly accept." Yu Daochen said a little embarrassed.
Han Hui waved her hand, "Master Yu, you jest. Please sit down and order."
Yu Daochen nodded, and the three pulled out chairs and sat down.
Han Hui brought the menu to Yu Daochen, "Master Yu, please order first."
Yu Daochen nodded and picked up the menu to look.
Scallion-mixed Tofu 78, Twice-cooked Pork 120, Braised Lion's Head 180, Stir-fried Tomatoes and Eggs...
Yu Daochen's eyelids twitched. It wasn't that he couldn't afford it, but he felt a bit embarrassed to order when he wasn't paying.
"Let's have Shredded Potato with Spring Pancakes and a Cold Cucumber Salad," Yu Daochen said, handing the menu to Han Hui, "Miss Han can order whatever else you'd like."
Han Hui, being experienced in the workplace, understood Yu Daochen's intention and handed the menu directly to Yu Yijun, "Yunjun, you can order whatever you like."
Yu Yijun looked at Yu Daochen beside her, "Daddy, can I really order anything?"
Yu Daochen nodded awkwardly, "Order whatever you want."
Yu Yijun, being a child, didn't quite grasp the subtext of Yu Daochen's words. Looking at the menu, she opened her mouth and said, "I want Braised Lion's Head, Steamed Perch, Twice-cooked Pork, and..."
Yu Daochen felt helpless. This little girl really did order whatever she wanted.
Han Hui didn't say anything. Since she was treating them, she had expected them to order a lot.
Besides, this little girl was so cute, it was worth spending a little extra.
Han Hui took the menu to a nearby staff member, "That's all."
"Okay." The waiter took the menu and turned to leave.
Before long, most of the dishes were served. Yu Yijun picked up her chopsticks, grabbed a Braised Lion's Head, and started eating.
Yu Daochen looked at the table full of delicious food and started calculating.
This meal would easily cost nearly a thousand.
After the meal, they chatted for a while longer. Yu Daochen then took a taxi with Yu Yijun back to the shop.
At eleven-thirty at night, Yu Daochen lay on the rocking chair, preparing to open for business.
Yu Yijun suddenly ran over from the backyard, blinking her bright, watery eyes, "Daddy, what do you think of Auntie Han?"
Yu Daochen lay on the rocking chair, picked up a teacup from the table beside him, took a sip, and nodded, "She's a very nice person."
Yu Yijun suddenly said, "Then what do you think if Daddy married her?"
"Pfft."
The tea Yu Daochen had just taken into his mouth almost spurted out, "Little girl, what are you talking about?"
Yu Yijun giggled, "Daddy, look, Auntie Han bought me so many beautiful dresses. If Daddy marries Auntie Han, I can buy beautiful dresses every day."
Yu Daochen was speechless, "Don't you have enough little dresses?"
Yu Yijun shook her head, stating logically, "You don't understand. What girl would ever say she has too many dresses?"
Yu Daochen was helpless. Just as he was about to speak, his expression changed. He turned his head to look outside the door and said sternly, "Little girl, you go back to the backyard first."
Yu Yijun also sensed someone outside. She nodded obediently and walked towards the backyard.
Yu Daochen stood up and walked to the door. He saw a figure limping towards the shop.
"You Hai?"
Yu Daochen focused his gaze and saw You Hai limping towards the shop, half his face stained with blood, leaving a trail of blood behind him.
Seeing Yu Daochen, You Hai's face lit up with hope, "Master Yu, save me!"
Yu Daochen frowned and looked at the figure chasing closely behind.
When that figure saw Yu Daochen, he swung the sharp blade in his hand towards the back of You Hai's head.
Seeing this, Yu Daochen reacted swiftly. He stomped on the ground, charged forward, and drew the Kanglong Mace from his waist, blocking the incoming blade.
Clang!
A crisp sound of weapons colliding. The figure retreated several steps, regained his balance, and his expression turned grim.
Yu Daochen also took a step back, his brow furrowed.
This person was not weak.
You Hai, behind him, breathed a sigh of relief, "Thank you for your help, Master Yu."
Yu Daochen's eyes remained fixed on the figure in front of him, and he said calmly, "Get inside the shop first!"
You Hai nodded and stumbled into the shop.
"Master Yu, this doesn't seem to concern you," the figure said, slowly emerging from the darkness.
"Sharp-mouthed and monkey-faced, wielding a short blade, missing an eye, Jin Feibiao, ranked ninth on the Earth Ranking?" Yu Daochen said calmly.
The figure grinned, his voice cold, "Master Yu is correct. I am Jin Feibiao, but I don't like people calling me sharp-mouthed and monkey-faced."
Jin Feibiao continued, his tone laced with threat, "Master Yu, this You Hai doesn't seem to have any connection with you. Could it be that you want to meddle in other people's business?"
Yu Daochen shook his head, "Not exactly. It's just that you should be aware of the rules of the Midnight Spirit Shop."
Jin Feibiao chuckled, "I am certainly aware of the rules of the Midnight Spirit Shop. Then please, Master Yu, let You Hai come out."
Upon hearing this, Yu Daochen stomped on the ground, raised the Kanglong Mace, and swung it at Jin Feibiao, roaring, "Scum, understand where you are! Even Haotian Fist wouldn't dare speak to me like this. What the hell do you think you are!"
