Tianpeng was pondering the feasibility of this matter; logically speaking, it could work, this is acting on personal feelings, anyway business has to be done, so rather than... just... just as Tianpeng was about to agree, a voice suddenly came from behind him: "No."

Tianpeng turned around, Sun Wukong was standing right behind him, "You idiot, what's going on, I told you to go out and see who it is, why haven't you come back, turns out you're flirting."

"No no, Monkey Brother, look what you've made me out to be."

Tianpeng glanced at Chang'e's expression and hurriedly explained, "This person just wants to buy milk tea, I'm not explaining to them, am I?"

"No, we haven't started selling today, wait until tomorrow."

Sun Wukong said, "Two sentences and it's explained clearly, why do you keep explaining?"

"No no, oh Monkey Brother, after all she's a fairy, I'm not embarrassed to refuse her, am I?"

Tianpeng hurriedly said, "Sorry, Fairy Chang'e, I'm really embarrassed, Monkey Brother speaks harshly, otherwise just wait until tomorrow to come over."

"You weren't just about to agree to me, were you? How come you want to refuse again now?"

Chang'e looked quite wronged, as if she were about to cry.

"Oh dear, this"

Tianpeng looked at Chang'e, who looked like she was about to cry, and didn't know what to do, "Let me tell you the truth, Fairy Chang'e, I'm not the one in charge, if you have questions, ask Monkey Brother."

Chang'e lifted her head and glanced at Sun Wukong; seeing his fierce and menacing look, she knew at once he wasn't someone who would be understanding, and hurriedly shook her head.

"Ah, like that, it's fine, since you're not selling today, I'll come again tomorrow."

Watching Chang'e's departing back, Tianpeng sighed: "Monkey Brother, can't you rein in that temper? Look what you've done—you've scared her half to death."

"Did I scare her?"

Sun Wukong roared again, "Lust is a blade on the head, if it weren't for me watching over you here, you'd probably have already closed that first deal, and still you talk about me—how did my master tell you?"

"Look what you're saying, I didn't even say I'd sell her milk tea today, I just wanted you to be a bit nicer to her."

Tianpeng, after being scolded by Sun Wukong, instantly lost his momentum: "Your temper is really too foul."

"My temper is foul?"

Sun Wukong slapped Tianpeng on the head.

"Say it again—whose temper is foul? And why should I be nice to her temper? Did she smile at me or give me money? No deal's been made, why should I be nice to her, you idiot—are you close to her or close to me? You're already speaking up for her, why don't you just go with her?"

Tianpeng covered his head, "Look at your temper—you flare up at a word and still hit me, I'm helping reason, not kin, you see, how can you do business with this attitude? Don't scare all the customers away."

"So you're saying you're more suitable?"

Sun Wukong sneered coldly, "You standing there outweigh three of me, and besides, the place is this small, my master still said to make a transparent display case, with you here, nothing's transparent."

Tianpeng, stung by Sun Wukong's words, clutched his chest, "Monkey Brother, if you're going to scold me, just scold me, why attack me personally?"

"You're allowed to attack my bad temper, but I'm not allowed to say you've gotten fat?"

Sun Wukong snorted, "That's double standards, and besides, what I said is the truth."

"Anyway, the person's already left."

Tianpeng sighed, turned around, and went back to rest.

Sun Wukong cursed him with "forgetting righteousness for lust," also preparing to leave, but who knew this little shop would get another customer.

"Isn't there a sign at my shop door saying no business today? These celestial officials, one by one, are they illiterate or what?"

Sun Wukong slowly turned his head, turned and saw someone he hadn't seen in a long time, Yang Chan.

"Hey, what wind blows you here? Why aren't you at Chaos Residence, why'd you come to our newly opened little shop?"

Yang Chan held a precious lotus lantern in her hand; surely Yao Ji was there too, but Sun Wukong didn't understand why everyone kept coming to the shop before it opened.

"Chaos Residence is really too busy."

Yang Chan gave a bitter smile, "I've tried to reserve for ages but never got through."

"So you came to my place instead?"

Sun Wukong asked, "I really don't get it—why did you come here? Won't you ask me to let you cut in line? I don't handle this stuff, if my master finds out he'll blame me."

"No no, I'm not here to cut in line.

"

Yang Chan hurriedly denied, "I just saw you guys weren't open yet, knew it wasn't especially busy, so came to sit a while."

"Oh"

Sun Wukong nodded, "Sitting's fine, but there's nothing for you to drink, water's okay, anything more and it's not allowed."

"Oh, it's fine, no water's okay too."

Yang Chan hurriedly said.

Although Yang Chan said she didn't need it, Sun Wukong still poured her a cup of water; no matter what, this is also my master's guest, my master's attitude toward her is passable, so I certainly can't neglect her for no reason.

"You just came here to sit a while?"

Sun Wukong looked at Yang Chan holding her cup with a look of sorrow, "What happened that you can't tell Yao Ji or your brother, and instead you came to my place?"

Yao Ji also sighed, who says it isn't so, but her daughter usually seems pretty carefree, since meeting this Chen Nuo, she's actually become sentimental, not even daring to confess.

"I don't have anything, you go ahead and be busy if you need to."

Yang Chan said.

"Oh"

Sun Wukong blinked in confusion, nodded, and was just about to leave.

"Wait a moment"

Yang Chan called out to Sun Wukong, "What's your master been busy with lately? I've been here these days and haven't even seen his shadow."

"Busy cooking, what else could he be busy with?"

Sun Wukong replied: "You yourself said you've tried to reserve for days and couldn't get in, so he must be busy cooking, what else could it be?"

"Haha, that's true too."

Yang Chan nodded, took a sip of water, and asked, "Has he been eating well and sleeping well? Is he getting enough rest?"

Sun Wukong was completely confused by the question, "My master isn't a child anymore, I've never worried about these things, why are you asking about this?"

Yao Ji was nearly stunned by her daughter's words, quickly emerging from the Lotus Lantern to say, "She's just concerned about your master."

"Oh, concerned about my master, huh."

Sun Wukong looked at the emerging Yao Ji and said with a laugh, "Don't worry, my master is fine, doing great, making money until his hands are soft."

"Like this."

Yang Chan smiled lightly, "Then good, then good."

Sun Wukong didn't know what her smile meant, so he nodded and said, "Alright, you rest here for a while, I'll go outside to take a look."

"Please wait a moment longer."

As Sun Wukong turned around, Yang Chan stopped him once again.

Sun Wukong sighed, this woman had no intention of letting him leave at all, "What's wrong? Is there anything else?"

"Ah, it's just that besides cooking, has your master..."

Yang Chan carefully chose her words, "Just whether he has encountered any other opposite sex."

"Opposite sex?"

Sun Wukong didn't even think about it, "Naturally, there is."

Yang Chan immediately became nervous, "Who is it?"
