Chapter 1825: Chapter 1823: Leaving in Disgrace

Under the scrutiny of so many eyes, Liu Ling didn’t have the extraordinary ability to do what she wanted; she had no choice but to let go of her hand angrily.

But her sinister gaze was fixed on Old Lady Lu.

The old lady shivered.

Invisibly, it seemed she understood she was being used.

She wanted to say something, opened her mouth, but in the end, said nothing.

Anyway, this matter had nothing to do with her anymore.

Old Lady Lu looked at Chu Chengfeng with ingratiation, "Young man, can we... can we leave now? Rest assured, we will never come to the restaurant to cause trouble again."

Chu Chengfeng withdrew his gaze and nodded lightly, "You can go."

After taking a few steps, Old Lady Lu turned back uneasily and asked, "You won’t call my son’s boss, will you?"

Chu Chengfeng nodded slowly.

Old Lady Lu felt relieved, quickly helped by Old Man Lu and her eldest son, and left Top Grade Beef Noodle Restaurant embarrassed.

Although Gu Qiaoqiao had long lost her good impression of Chu Chengfeng, she thought his way of handling was decent; striking the snake at its vital point probably meant Old Lady Lu wouldn’t dare come back again, certainly, partly because Old Lee and Li He were present.

They dared to harass Li Gufen, simply because they took advantage of Sister Li having no one to support her.

With the Lu Family gone, Old Lee turned his gaze to Liu Ling. He didn’t recognize this woman, frowned, and asked, "Who are you? What grudge, what resentment do you have with my granddaughter that you harm her like this?"

And at that moment, Old Lee had a vague answer in his heart.

This woman might just be Chu Chengfeng’s new girlfriend.

Liu Ling kept her face gloomy and stayed silent.

Old Lee looked coldly at Chu Chengfeng.

Chu Chengfeng’s gaze subtly swept over Sister Xiao Wen, as always, Sister Xiao Wen didn’t even bother to look at him.

At this moment, he felt as if he had finally reached the top of the mountain after hardship, but upon turning around, he fell into an abyss.

Chu Chengfeng struggled to move his gaze and sincerely said to Old Lee, "Old Lee, I’m sorry, it’s all my fault. Liu Ling acted foolishly and did wrong; if you want to scold or hit, direct it at me."

Old Lee’s cold gaze shifted to Liu Ling, then looked at Chu Chengfeng and said coldly, "If you’re not sincere, there’s no point in continuing with this restaurant."

He wasn’t short of money.

The fortune he earned in his lifetime belonged to his granddaughter and grandson.

He could completely support her.

Li Gufen and Li He exchanged a glance, and Gu Qiaoqiao saw that Li Gufen really liked her current work environment.

Gu Qiaoqiao knew that Sister Li held strong feelings for this place.

However, regarding Li Gufen’s choice, Gu Qiaoqiao and Sister Xiao Wen had no intention of dissuading her.

If she liked it, she could stay; if not, she could completely choose her own life, and she was about to get married, with the future getting better every day.

Chu Chengfeng glanced lightly at Liu Ling, noticing a flash of joy in her eyes. He knew this woman didn’t want the restaurant to continue.

Perhaps there were many motives, but the most important one Chu Chengfeng understood was wanting him to completely abandon everything and return to Divine Land.

After all, there was something in Divine Temple she had been yearning for but hadn’t obtained after so many years.

She surely wouldn’t be reconciled.

But Chu Chengfeng also wanted to know why Liu Ling insisted on obtaining that thing.

However, now was not the time.

Chu Chengfeng looked at Li Gufen sincerely and said, "Sister Li, today’s matters are all my fault. It’s the trouble Liu Ling and I brought you; I’m really sorry.

But I promise, this is the first and the last time. As for Sister Li, whatever you decide for the future, I’ll follow your wishes; do as you wish."

Li Gufen took a deep breath. She knew her grandfather was considerate of her well-being. She looked at Old Lee, "Grandpa, I want to continue. I really like it here because this is the first home where I’ve begun a new life."

Old Lee pondered for a while, then nodded and said, "Alright then, do as you like. But rest assured, the Lu family won’t dare show up in front of you again."

Chu Chengfeng waved to the manager hiding in the distance, "Get the waiters over here, tidy up this place, and then open the doors."

Because of constant coming and going outside, quite a few people were knocking on the door or peeking inside.

From start to finish, Sister Xiao Wen said nothing.

Li Gufen, though initially very emotional, stood by the side with so many people; she really wanted to ask Liu Ling what grudge she had against her for such harm. But observing Chu Chengfeng’s expression, she thought it over and didn’t ask.

She believed that this matter, Chu Chengfeng would definitely give her a satisfactory answer, because no matter what, Liu Ling was Chu Chengfeng’s fiancée. In front of everyone, she thought Chu Chengfeng would definitely give that woman a bit of face.

Sister Li, Sister Xiao Wen, and Gu Qiaoqiao whispered to each other for a moment and then went to see Old Lee and Li He off.

Gu Qiaoqiao glanced outside, seeing the harmonious back view of that family of three.

Gu Qiaoqiao’s lips curled upward.

Sister Li was truly beginning her new life now.

However, seeing Chu Chengfeng and Liu Ling, Gu Qiaoqiao’s expression sank again, not wanting to see the faces of this man and woman. She said to Sister Xiao Wen, "Sister Xiao Wen, there’s nothing more here, let’s go."

Chu Chengfeng saw Gu Qiaoqiao not responding to him, a bitter smile on his face. But in his heart, he was glad, because Gu Qiaoqiao treated Xiao Wen sincerely.

Because Gu Qiaoqiao was by her side, the foolish things he did didn’t cause Xiao Wen serious harm.

But only just that.

"Sister-in-law, thankfully, you and Xiao Wen arrived in time." He thanked sincerely.

"Yeah, I came just in time. If I were later, with some people fanning the flames, wouldn’t Sister Li be kidnapped to Lu Family Village by them?"

Then Gu Qiaoqiao looked directly at Liu Ling and said bluntly, "Miss Liu, I hope you don’t transfer your grievances with Chu Chengfeng onto others. Sister Li has no grievances with you, never affected you in the slightest. You’re just trying to use this opportunity to shut the restaurant down, but isn’t hurting an innocent person quite immoral?"

Liu Ling’s face immediately changed, not expecting Gu Qiaoqiao, about to leave, would suddenly attack her, knowing this damn girl’s mouth has never been quiet.

But what was done was done, she didn’t regret it, just didn’t expect to end up like this now.
