Money was the priority.
Yun Shu rose, preparing to leave.
Old Master Qin had drunk a little and was feeling tipsy.
He swayed slightly as he stood up.
Yun Shu froze, "Old Master Qin, are you drunk?"
"No, drunk? Not at all! I can hold my liquor!" Old Master Qin waved his hands repeatedly, refusing to admit he was drunk.
The next moment.
With a bang.
He slumped onto the table!
Muttering under his breath, "I'm not drunk!"
Yun Shu’s lips twitched. She had forgotten that Old Master Qin was on medication, which made his body completely unable to tolerate alcohol.
Half a cup could make him sleep for an hour.
"I'll see your ill-fated grandson another day. I'm leaving," Yun Shu said. After going out, she instructed Old Master Qin's attendant to take good care of the drunken old master.
Then, she went downstairs.
This Huiyun Tower belonged to Old Master Qin, and it was closed to guests today. There was no need to worry about Old Master Qin.
About halfway down the stairs.
Suddenly, angry voices could be heard from the first floor.
"I already spoke yesterday, and my young lady was supposed to meet a guest in the Heavenly Chamber today. Now you're telling me Huiyun Tower is closed! Today, your Huiyun Tower must give me an explanation, or I won't be able to explain to my young lady!"
"Furthermore, do you know who our young lady is meeting today? It's the Regent!"
"It would be best for you to open the doors now and let our young lady and the Regent dine. Otherwise, the consequences are beyond what a small establishment like your Huiyun Tower can bear!"
Wen Shu, like a fox borrowing the tiger's might, used Yun Yueyin and Zhan Ming's names to posture in front of the manager.
She thought she could intimidate the manager.
But the manager frowned and said, "Huiyun Tower is unable to operate today. Please go to another restaurant. My apologies."
Today, even if the King of Heaven himself came, they wouldn't open Huiyun Tower.
The old master had said that he was entertaining an exceptionally important guest today and did not want to be disturbed by noise.
Therefore, whether it was Miss Yun or the Regent, they had to stand aside.
Yun Shu nodded upon hearing this, thinking that the waiter at Huiyun Tower was quite good.
"You! Manager, didn't you hear what I said?" Wen Shu was furious.
She had used her young lady and the Regent as a shield, yet the manager dared to be so righteous!
"Huiyun Tower has never had a rule that reservations must be made the day before. I informed you yesterday that if there were any issues today, we would not be able to serve meals. I also told you to come and confirm this morning." The manager explained with a sigh.
Wen Shu's eyes flickered. She knew she was in the wrong, but she couldn't go back and tell her young lady now.
Perhaps the Regent would arrive soon.
"This, this, this, I don't care. Negotiate with the kitchen. We must dine in the Heavenly Chamber today, no matter what!" Wen Shu was somewhat anxious. Was Huiyun Tower refusing money that was already within reach?
At this moment.
A waiter came down from upstairs.
Seeing Yun Shu standing on the stairs, he asked in surprise, "Is the honored guest leaving?"
This question made Wen Shu's eyelids twitch violently. She spun around and blurted out, "Manager, you are going too far! Didn't you just say you were closed today? How can there be guests dining?!"
As soon as the question was out of her mouth.
She froze.
She looked at Yun Shu in disbelief.
"Second Miss?!"
Why was Second Miss here?
She became even angrier, "Manager, you must give me an explanation!"
The manager looked at Yun Shu, knowing she was the old master's esteemed guest. He said with a cold expression, "Please leave. Do not disturb our esteemed guest at Huiyun Tower."
Just then.
Yun Yueyin, who had been waiting for Wen Shu for a long time, could wait no longer and pushed the door open.
"Wen Shu, what's going on?"
Upon seeing Yun Yueyin, Wen Shu immediately pointed at Yun Shu and said, "Miss, Huiyun Tower is allowing Second Miss to dine upstairs, yet they are refusing to entertain us!"
Following Wen Shu's pointed direction, Yun Yueyin saw Yun Shu.
"Why is it you? What are you doing here?" Yun Yueyin frowned and asked coldly.
Yun Shu let out a snort and chuckled, "I'll be wherever I want to be."
"Yun Shu, have you forgotten what happened a few years ago? If you don't want to repeat the same mistakes, get out now and don't get in my way!" Yun Yueyin narrowed her eyes, her tone extremely sharp and full of threats.
The Regent would arrive any moment.
She didn't want Yun Shu to disrupt her meeting with the Regent!
Yun Shu walked up to Yun Yueyin, "The one who should get out is you..."
"Second Miss, are you joking? Our young lady is about to marry the Regent. Her status is noble. How can you compare?" Wen Shu quickly said.
Bang!
Suddenly, a violent sound.
Wen Shu was kicked flying and crashed into the door.
The door cracked open.
"Ah, it hurts so much! Miss, it hurts so much, my servant!" Wen Shu cried out in pain.
Every inch of her body ached!
Second Miss's kick was too vicious!
"Yun Shu, you have a lot of nerve!" Yun Yueyin's face turned ashen. She raised her foot, intending to kick Yun Shu as well.
That day at the General's mansion, Yun Shu had dared to slap her in front of everyone. Today, she would teach Yun Shu a good lesson!
Otherwise, Yun Shu had truly forgotten her methods!
She knew some martial arts! She had learned them from Yun Changfeng before! Now she would use what Yun Changfeng taught her to teach his daughter a good lesson!
"Scram!" Yun Shu's beautiful eyes narrowed slightly, and she let out a cold laugh.
She raised her hand and delivered several sharp slaps.
At the same time, she delivered a kick.
In her eyes, Yun Yueyin's movements were as slow as a turtle.
"Ah!" Yun Yueyin screamed in fear. As soon as she covered her face, before she could react, she felt the kick she had thrown being met with immense pain from Yun Shu's counter-kick, as if her entire leg had gone numb and lost all sensation.
Most terrifyingly, she felt herself flying uncontrollably!
She immediately clutched her abdomen with both hands.
"Yun Shu, you're seeking death!" she cursed in shock.
Just as she was about to land on Wen Shu, someone suddenly caught her.
Yun Shu looked at the person who had suddenly appeared at the doorway.
She inwardly sneered, what kind of luck was this today?
She had encountered two people she least wanted to see consecutively.
Still shaken, Yun Yueyin looked up at the person holding her, "Regent, Yun Shu tried to harm me!"
Fortunately!
She had almost thought she would fall to the ground and injure the child in her womb!
A sinister glint flashed in her eyes.
Zhan Ming's charming, slender black eyes flashed with a dark light as he coldly swept his gaze towards Yun Shu, "You tried to harm this Prince's concubine? Miss Yun the second, you have quite the nerve!"
Yun Yueyin, her eyes red, trembled slightly. Looking at Yun Shu, her eyes were filled with shock, "Yun Shu, why did you attack me so ruthlessly?"
"Regent, Second Miss is jealous that Miss can marry you, so she wants to kill Miss!" Wen Shu's eyes darted around, and she quickly added fuel to the fire.
