Xin Lin sidestepped and slipped into the neighboring coffin shop.
Outside the coffin shop, a coffin was always displayed.
Xin Lin, being small, hid beside the coffin and was completely undetectable.
The newcors were a few shadows, arriving outside Chu’s Restaurant.
The figures seed sowhat familiar.
"Brother Wang, it’s confird, there’s no one inside, the Water Wraith Gang’s people have all left."
"Be careful, move the things inside."
Hearing that voice, Xin Lin imdiately reacted.
Wang Lei.
Why has that guy co?
With her current level of eyesight, Xin Lin was quite extraordinary; a single glance showed Wang Lei leading several Taoyao Pavilion workers, carrying so firewood quickly into Chu’s Restaurant.
Xin Lin was a bit puzzled.
She thought Taoyao Pavilion ca to sabotage her ingredients since, according to information from Ma Jingtian and others, Taoyao Pavilion’s Spiritual Longevity Peach Buns weren’t selling well today, and seed to have so issue.
Yang Su would certainly resort to so tricks to win.
So when they closed tonight, they stored away the materials for making sugar lotus root.
But what ga is Yang Su playing now?
Xin Lin watched as Wang Lei and the others broke into Chu’s Restaurant from the shadows.
After a mont, they ca out empty-handed.
Soon, they disappeared into the night.
Xin Lin, unhurried and laid-back, strolled back into Chu’s Restaurant.
Inside Chu’s Restaurant, all the cooking utensils remained untouched.
Only the firewood by the farthest corner of the stove had changed slightly.
"This firewood?"
Xin Lin was sowhat surprised.
Having stayed at Taoyao Pavilion, she recognized the firewood used there and had chopped wood there for a few days.
The firewood before her eyes seed unfamiliar.
Xin Lin picked up a piece of firewood and sniffed it; with a sniff, her expression changed slightly.
"So that’s it, who’d have thought Yang Su actually used this thod to hide the opium."
Xin Lin pondered aloud.
She had long been guessing how Yang Su managed to fuse the opium’s effects into the Spiritual Longevity Peach Buns, but couldn’t detect it in the ingredients.
Now thinking back, it was done using firewood.
As the firewood smoked, the dicinal power of the firewood would linger on the surface of the Spiritual Longevity Peach Buns.
"But why would he move so of the firewood to Chu’s Restaurant?"
Xin Lin was a bit baffled.
"Because this is all the firewood he has left."
Gui Hu’s voice appeared behind her.
"What do you an, all the firewood he has left? You already knew Yang Su tampered with the firewood? Wait, did you do sothing to his firewood?"
Xin Lin asked suspiciously, looking at Gui Hu.
Indeed, many custors who ca to Chu’s Restaurant this afternoon ntioned that Taoyao Pavilion’s Spiritual Longevity Peach Buns tasted odd.
So it was Gui Hu who ddled with the firewood.
The opium-type dicinal herb only existed near the Ancient Yue Kingdom.
Currently, with only a few days left, Yang Su clearly couldn’t find enough new firewood.
This way, Yang Su couldn’t make Spiritual Longevity Peach Buns normally.
"So, he plans to falsely accuse and shift bla by moving the firewood to my place."
Xin Lin instantly understood.
Yang Su knew he couldn’t beat her sugar lotus root with Spiritual Longevity Peach Buns, so he devised such a dastardly plan.
This person is truly dastardly.
Being ssed with by Yang Su like this, Xin Lin had no heart left for alchemy, resigning to postpone it.
She glanced at the firewood, then a plan ca to mind.
She whispered a few words to Gui Hu.
Gui Hu listened and nodded slightly.
As dawn broke, the area outside Chu’s Restaurant was already lined with people; more guests ca today compared to the previous two days.
