“My surname is Shang. Madam Zhao, you can just call me Shang.”

Shang…

Yue Jiaojiao rummaged through her memories, but she couldn’t find anything related to this surname.

“Shang,” she readily accepted his name. As she spoke, she placed the oil lamp by her feet and hid her trembling fingers behind her back. “My family’s business is handled by my husband. Since you’ve invited the two of us here, I don’t think we can negotiate this business.”

“Don’t joke with me, Madam Zhao.” Shang laughed in that unpleasant way again.

“I’ve already investigated everything. That’s why I’m here.

“Although Sir Zhao is busy now, he was just a hunter before he married you. The things in the Hundred Flavors Restaurant must’ve been from you.

“That’s why it’s just right for me to discuss this business with you, Madam Zhao.”

“I know too many things. Do you want to know about one thing, or enough so that your appetite can be filled to the brim?”

As Yue Jiaojiao spoke, she subconsciously shivered. She paused for a moment, looked at Shangyu, and continued, “It seems that you’re a businessman, so you should know how to treat your guests. My body is weak and I’m feeling very cold. I see that you have a thick robe. Can I borrow it?

“If it’s possible, I’ll have to trouble you to have your men prepare some food and send it in as well. Otherwise, if I get a cold and high fever that won’t go away, I’m afraid I won’t be able to give you what you want.”

“Madam Zhao, you must be joking. You just locked the door from the inside. My men can’t send anything in.”

“I locked you just now because I wanted to have a good talk with you and didn’t want to be disturbed. Now that I know you only want to talk business with me, there’s no reason to lock you with us.”

“Jiaojiao,” Li Xiangjun took over the conversation and touched her forehead. “Why is your forehead so hot when your hands are cold?”

“Shang, can I trouble you to lend us your robe? It’s best to prepare some hot soup and rice for us to ward off the cold. You don’t want this business deal to fail and instead torture us to the point of causing problems, right?”

Shang walked up to the two of them. When he saw that Yue Jiaojiao’s face was as white as snow, and even her lips were bloodless, he hesitated for a moment before throwing the robe he had draped over his body at her feet. “Get out of the way. I’ll ask the servants to prepare some food for you. We’ll have a good chat over dinner later.”

“As for the both of you, I advise you not to play any tricks. Your lovers are being played by the clues I left for them. They won’t be able to find their way here even if they tried.”

Yue Jiaojiao didn’t say anything. Li Xiangjun used her body to support her and moved to the side to open the door. She then covered her with the robe in a flurry.

Shang cursed in his heart when he realized that the two still did not care about him. He saw that the other one was shivering in the cold, but he still opened the door and walked out. After ordering the guards to prepare food, he hurriedly went to another room to find a robe and put it on.

Yue Jiaojiao disdainfully threw the robe that covered her legs to the side when she heard the sound of footsteps slowly disappearing.

Li Xiangjun closed the door from the inside and ran to her. “Jiaojiao, I did well, right?” She asked softly. “What should we do next?”
