Song Shuhang looked at his restaurant.

The restaurant was really small, and it looked like there wasn’t anywhere to hide.

The only place to hide was… Song Shuhang lowered his head and looked under the cash register.

The space here was very small, but because the blonde girl was also rather small, she should be able to hide there.

The blonde girl’s mechanical right eye keenly caught Song Shuhang’s head moving.

Soon after, she ran to Song Shuhang’s side of the counter, curling up into a ball and hide under the cash register. “…” Song Shuhang.

Wait, I didn’t agree to let her hide here, right?

Song Shuhang asked, “Is someone chasing

you?”

The blonde girl placed her index finger on her lips. “Shhh”

Song Shuhang sighed.

He turned his head and looked at Chu Chu. “Chu Chu, does your teacher look like a very good person?”

Chu Chu replied, “Yes, you do, Teacher.”

Moreover, Teacher looks like someone who could easily be bullied because of his kind face.

While they were talking, the door to the restaurant was opened again.

A group of six large men in black suits and sunglasses came in. The climate on Western Orchid Island was warm. Weren’t they hot in such thick clothing?

Four of them stood by the door of Song Shuhang’s restaurant.

The remaining two strode in, and found a place to sit down.

Song Shuhang thought to himself, Are they looking for the blonde girl?

At this time, the burly man on the left said, “Shop owner, please give us the menu.”

Chu Chu held the new menu, and handed it to the two large men. After the two large guys took the new menu, they looked at each other, ordering five dishes each.

The two large guys said, “We want a total of 10 dishes. We’re quite hungry, so please hurry.”

“…” Chu Chu.

She turned her head to look at Song Shuhang.

It was 10 dishes again, and they were also in a hurry.

Could it be that they came for that business as well?

Song Shuhang calmly said, “Serve them first.”

Chu Chu nodded, entered the kitchen, and quickly started to cook.

Similar to the blonde girl from before, the two big men in suits sat motionlessly after they ordered.

Chu Chu’s dishes were served one after another, but the two men did not move their tableware.

Once all 10 dishes were served, the two big men in black suits ate them very quickly. In the blink of an eye, the 10 dishes were finished.

After that, one of them got up, stacked up the 10 plates, and brought them to Song Shuhang.

Due to his tall height, the burly man needed to slightly squat down after placing the dishes in order to meet Song Shuhang’s gaze. When the blonde girl stood on tiptoe and glanced at Song Shuhang, she looked very cute. But as this burly man crouched down and glanced at Song Shuhang, he also looked strangely cute.

Song Shuhang calmly said, “The customer is paying the bill. Chu Chu, how much is it?”

Chu Chu replied, “310.” Song Shuhang said, “Customers, you’re really lucky. You are the second batch to come after the restaurant’s opening. As such, I will give you a discount and only ask you to pay 300 RMB.”

“You just opened, and we’re the second batch of customers?” The burly man was taken aback.

Song Shuhang calmly said, “Yes, I just took over this restaurant from the original owner. The original owner left with his sister-in-law.”

The corners of the big man’s mouth twitched.

Such a thing happened?

“Then, new owner, can you also arrange ‘safe and quick departures’?” The big man looked expectantly at Song Shuhang.

“Unfortunately, this shop has just opened, and we don’t offer such a service yet.” Song Shuhang shrugged.

The burly man let out a long sigh, took out his wallet, and paid 300 USD. The burly man said, “Shop owner, although you have just taken over this restaurant-and I’m not really qualified to say anything about its layout-it would be better for you to change the sign of the store. Otherwise, there will be more problems in the future that will arise because of it.”

This burly man was rather easy-going… and he was rather kind-hearted.

Song Shuhang said, “Thanks for your suggestion. I’ve just bought this restaurant and haven’t gotten the chance to redecorate it yet. I’ll change the restaurant’s sign in a while.”

The burly man nodded and said, “See you around, shop owner.”

Then, he gritted his teeth, took the other burly man and the other four outside, and quickly left the restaurant.

Song Shuhang thought to himself, It seems that these big guys weren’t looking for the blonde girl…

Not long after they had left the restaurant, the burly man suddenly ran back, looking somewhat embarrassed. However, none of his subordinates were with him this time.

The burly man hurriedly asked, “Shop owner, I’m in a bit of hurry. Do you have a place where I can hide?”

“…” Song Shuhang Even their lines were nearly the same.

He involuntarily looked down at his cash register.

The only place where people could hide was already being occupied by a little girl. And with that big man’s physique, he wouldn’t have been able to hide there, right?

The burly man misunderstood Song Shuhang’s actions.

He thought that Song Shuhang was hinting him to hide below the cash register.

So, he quickly ran to the cash register.

“Wait, wait a minute! You can’t hide here, it’s too small. And it’s already…” Song Shuhang hurriedly waved.

However, the burly man had already rushed to the counter.

Then, he saw a little girl curled up under the cash register. The girl blinked at him, looking very cute.

The burly man gave a wry smile. “I didn’t expect you to have this hobby, boss.” “…” Song Shuhang. What is he saying? Wait a minute, Big Brother. It’s not what you think it is. Don’t think so poorly of me!

The large man looked at this small restaurant again. The layout of the restaurant was simple, and this included the kitchen and the storage rooms; there wasn’t anywhere to hide.

“Damn it.” The large man gritted his teeth and prepared to exit the restaurant. He felt that the other party wouldn’t arrive so quickly, so he should still have some time to escape.

However, just as he got to the door of the restaurant, he was blown backward.

“Ahhh!” the big man cried out, fell back inside the dining room, and broke a table along the way.

At the door, a muscular man with weird patterns all over his body slowly stepped into the restaurant.

Beside him, there was a black smoke that only cultivators could see.

The black smoke entered into the man’s body from time to time, and it would course through the patterns on his body, becoming increasingly dense.

The man with the weird patterns on his body grinned, and said, “Hehehe, you thought you could escape? In order to catch you a little earlier, I gave up on the boat and swam all the way to Western Orchid Island.” After entering the restaurant, he casually took the door panel with him.

Smoke erupted from his body, completely sealing all the doors and windows in the restaurant.

“Give me that treasure. It’s not something you should possess,” the patterned man said. “That ancient demon core is something that only I deserve to have.”
