Chapter 1368: Chapter 1368: Who Are You (4)
Zhongxia tensed up in an instant.
Yang Ruxin, however, gave her a glance, “Relax.”
Zhongxia genuinely relaxed. Although she had heard that this young miss was formidable, that was all hearsay. Today, however, she had truly witnessed it—a strange yet formidable protectiveness, and a kind heart. Thus, in her heart, she had completely submitted to this master, even though she herself didn’t realize that not only had she acknowledged her master, but she had also co to see this master as her pillar of support.
When Yang Baiyue clearly saw Yang Ruxin, a flash of cold light swept across his eyes, but it quickly disappeared, replaced instead by a pleading smile, “Xinxin.”
“Who are you?” Yang Ruxin appeared bewildered.
Yang Baiyue was instantly choked by her words; how dare this impudent girl pretend not to recognize him? But he had to endure, so after taking three deep breaths, he said, “Have we t before? Xinxin, have you forgotten so quickly? I am…”
Yang Ruxin slightly raised her eyebrows, her eyes flickering with a hint of sarcasm.
Yang Baiyue was so thrown by that sarcastic glance that he couldn’t finish his sentence.
“Who exactly are you?” Yang Ruxin pressed further, then smiled, “You probably don’t even know who you are, do you?”
Yang Baiyue’s face darkened, “Xinxin, after all…”
“Xinxin, you’re back.” Just then, Dong Wenming approached from the side. “I was just looking for you, I…” He suddenly saw Yang Baiyue, and his eyebrows imdiately furrowed, “What are you doing here?”
Yang Baiyue was inwardly furious, but he couldn’t let it show on his face. Instead, he respectfully called out to his father-in-law, “Aqiu has awakened, but she is still weak. I ca on her behalf to pay respects to Grandfather.”
“Hmm,” Dong Wenming responded perfunctorily, nodding his head, yet his eyes never left Yang Ruxin, relieved to see her complexion looked normal, “Well, go ahead then, it’s almost dinner ti.”
Yang Ruxin glanced at Yang Baiyue and then turned to enter Song Academy.
Since Dong Wenxiu’s return, the old master had moved back to Song Academy, which was closer to his daughter and more convenient for family visits.
“Uncle, what did you need?” Yang Ruxin looked towards Dong Wenming.
“The custom-made copper hotpot and utensils have all arrived…” Dong Wenming finally revealed a smile. “I didn’t expect we would gather enough copper so smoothly…” As copper and such minerals were controlled by the Governor’s Office, each state capital was only supplied a fixed quantity.
“Let’s check them out tomorrow, it’s already late today,” Yang Ruxin nodded, “What about the staff?”
“I’ve also transferred a few people here, waiting for your training,” Dong Wenming nodded, “But the Dong family has never run a restaurant before, so, uncle is not very familiar with many things.”
“We’ll figure it out as we go,” Yang Ruxin smiled, then suddenly rembered sothing, “Oh, uncle, I have a favor to ask.”
“What is it?”
“Could you find out if there’s soone nad Qiu Lei in the prison…”
As they walked away, Yang Baiyue, who was supposed to enter Song Academy, stepped out from behind a nearby flower wall. His face was calm, but his eyes were fiercely sinister.
“Sister, look at my first finished work.” As soon as Yang Ruxin stepped into Jinxiu Courtyard, Yu Qingge bounded over, handing her a pink handkerchief.
