Chapter 305: Parted on Bad Terms

Xu Damao's words burst forth like a heavenly thunderclap, striking him with five thunderbolts!

The shock made Shazhu's body sway involuntarily.

He had already sensed earlier that Xu Damao's words were off.

But he never expected Xu Damao to have found out that this restaurant was run by Ran Qiuyue.

Everyone present was the same, they couldn't help but exchange glances.

Because Shazhu had told them that this restaurant was opened by the Great Leader's children.

Who would have thought Shazhu had deceived them all.

Qin Huairu sat there, gritting her teeth, with a deadpan expression.

Xu Damao didn't care about that; he gave a cold snort, pointed at Shazhu, and asked:

"Shazhu, I didn't get it wrong, right?"

Jia Zhangshi looked at Xu Damao and asked:

"Xu Damao, what did you just say? Who opened this restaurant?"

Xu Damao: "Ran Teacher, Ran Qiuyue, that's who."

Saying this, Xu Damao pointed at Bang Geng and asked:

"Bang Geng, was your former teacher, Ran Teacher, named Ran Qiuyue?"

Bang Geng sneered: "That's right."

"He played this trick smoothly, hiding the sky and crossing the sea—everyone was fooled by him."

Xu Damao said with a smug face: "Then what do you think?"

"You really think Shazhu is stupid?"

"You had them running in circles, right?"

Qin Huairu let out a cold snort and turned her gaze toward Shazhu.

Shazhu saw that and lowered his head slightly.

Xu Damao then said: "But anyway, let's get back to the point."

"Each matter to its own."

"When it comes to looking at women."

"Shazhu......"

Saying this, Xu Damao raised a thumb toward Shazhu and continued:

"You're the one, I admire you!"

"I, Xu Damao, am convinced."

"Go ahead and say it, three elders, this brat is eating from the bowl while eyeing the pot."

"Eating Qin Huairu......"

Qin Huairu coldly interrupted: "Xu Damao, stop talking nonsense."

"I have nothing to do with Shazhu."

Xu Damao blinked, asking: "What? You have nothing to do with each other?"

"Then why did you, when greeting everyone outside the door earlier, say your family had shares?"

Qin Huairu's face flushed, she said: "I—I mean, you misheard; I didn't say that—I said Shazhu holds the shares."

"What does it have to do with me? He's treating the neighbors to a meal; I'm just basking in everyone's glory."

Jia Zhangshi: "That's right; fortunately Huairu has been guarding against him, otherwise she'd really have been harmed by him."

Hearing that, Shazhu's face grew even darker.

Xu Damao: "Oh, then I really didn't expect that."

"Shazhu, you silly fool, just went ahead and gave you your wages, didn't you, Qin Huairu?"

"I really didn't expect that you two have nothing to do with each other."

"Sigh, how can there be such a stupid person in this world?"

"No relation, yet you still let him collect his wages."

"I don't believe it—oh, I've figured it out."

"Shazhu wants to have his cake and eat it too."

"Let Qin Huairu manage the household, wash and rinse for him......"

Yi Zhonghai, hearing this, hurriedly interrupted:

"Damao, stop talking."

Yan Bu Gui chimed in: "Right, Damao, don't talk nonsense, ah."

Xu Damao said with a dissatisfied face: "How am I just talking nonsense?"

"I'm telling the truth—if you don't believe me, ask Shazhu."

"One manages the household, washes and rinses for him—ah, Ran Teacher handles the outside and is so damn rich; I heard Ran Teacher also has a son—could it be Shazhu's son?"

Bang Geng sneered: "That's nonsense—how old is Ran Teacher's son? Six or seven?"

"Ran Teacher fled to Gangdao when the wind picked up."

"How could it be his son? He probably doesn't even have the ability anymore."

Xu Damao: "Bang Geng, don't underestimate people like that."

"You don't allow Ran Teacher to sneak back and meet him via a secret passage?"

Upon hearing this, Shazhu could no longer hold back.

He snatched the Maotai bottle from the table, pointed at Xu Damao, and roared:

Grandson, I still have to hit you! If I don't beat you today, then I'm the one who raised you.

Xu Damao saw things were going badly, had already stood up, and before Shazhu could finish his sentence, he took off running outside.

Shazhu hurled the Maotai bottle in his hand at his back.

With a clang, it hit the floor.

Xu Damao shouted while running: "Hey, Shazhu, watch your manners, your manners."

Shazhu shouted while chasing: "Grandson, if you've got guts, don't run."

Qin Huairu suddenly burst into tears with a "waa" and then also ran outside.

Xiao Dang and Huaihua stared blankly, exchanged a glance, then gave chase.

Shouting while chasing: "Mom, Mom..."

Yi Zhonghai shook his head, stood up, and said: "You say this Xu Damao, or is it a dog that changed its habit of eating feces?"

Bang Geng: "Eldest Uncle, you can't blame Xu Damao for this; what he said is also true."

You see Shazhu didn't even explain—doesn't that amount to tacit admission?

Jia Zhangshi: "Exactly, exactly, if we're going to blame someone, blame that Shazhu—it's going too far."

You three elders all saw that, right?

Yi Zhonghai: "Alright, Bang Geng, go chase after your mom, don't get involved in other matters."

Bang Geng nodded and walked outside.

Jia Zhangshi also stood up and followed them out, muttering curses as she walked.

That Shazhu is a bastard, a scoundrel—people like him living is simply a waste of grain.

Liu Haizhong watched their retreating backs and said:

That Shazhu is somewhat interesting.

He's got everyone running in circles, quite a talent.

Yan Bu Gui: "That Shazhu, I think his thing with Teacher Ran won't be so simple and easily settled."

He's too fickle, hey, that's not right either—don't you think Qin Huairu is being overly controlling?

She refuses to marry Shazhu, so why not let him be with Teacher Ran?

Teacher Ran has money to open a restaurant, Shazhu can cook—they'd make a good pair.

Liu Haizhong: "I heard Shazhu initially said Teacher Ran was opening a restaurant, and then he told that someone—Qin Huairu—about it."

Qin Huairu kept trying to thwart them, and afterward Teacher Ran returned to Gangdao.

This time they came back, perhaps they had planned it together, and that big restaurant ended up opening.

Perhaps Shazhu worried Qin Huairu would sabotage things from within, so he had no choice but to say it was opened by the children of that Great Leader.

Yan Bu Gui laughed: "Hey, Second Elder, you're using your brain now."

Liu Haizhong, a bit unhappy, asked: "No, what's up? You, you're saying I have no brains?"

Yan Bu Gui: "Haha, I never said that—it was you who said it."

I just said you're now doing business with Xu Damao and have learned to analyze.

Exactly, your analysis matches what I think.

Qin Huairu really is overly controlling; even when Shazhu wants to pursue his career, she still meddles.

Fine, go ahead and control—but you ought to marry Shazhu at least.

Shazhu has waited for her all these years, and now Bang Geng and the others have grown up, yet she still refuses to marry him.

Fine, you don't want to marry him, huh?

Then Shazhu would have to find someone himself, but she won't even let him do that.

What do you suggest we do about this?

Shazhu is really useless, completely under Qin Huairu's thumb.

Yi Zhonghai gave Yan Bu Gui a white-eyed look, spoke irritably:

Alright, enough talk—let's go back.
