The village beauty and me!

Chen Huan was both amused and exasperated.

It was because Liu Qian's tone and attention shifted so quickly that I almost couldn't keep up.

Faced with the two men throwing themselves at him and flirting with him, Chen Huan was full of confidence, "Don't worry, I'll definitely satisfy you..."

Before he could finish speaking, Liu Qian was impatiently pulling down his pants when suddenly the phone in his pocket rang.

"I'll take this call first." Chen Huan glanced at the caller ID in the contact list and immediately frowned.

"Why are you answering the phone at a time like this?" Liu Qian said, clearly annoyed, and quickened her pace.

Xiaoying was not to be outdone and indeed came to pester him.

"Chen Huan, where are you?"

"Can you come over right away? Do you remember what I told you yesterday?" Qiao Lingling's anxious and nervous voice came through the phone.

Chen Huan struggled to sit up straight, pulled her pants back up, and quickly replied, "Did someone go to your place for a checkup?"

"Yes, but I received advance notice that they'll arrive in about an hour. Can you come?"

"I'm a little panicked. I finally managed to reopen this small restaurant in the countryside. I'm really not willing to accept it if it closes down like this!" Qiao Lingling's voice was a little choked up.

Chen Huan pushed away Xiao Ying, who was straddling him, and stood up. "Don't worry, I'll be there in an hour. I won't let anything happen to your restaurant."

After saying that, he put away the phone and looked at Liu Qian and Xiao Ying, who were blushing and looking resentful.

  

"Ahem, I'm sorry, ladies."

"I'm in a sudden emergency and I'm rushing to the scene to help."

"How about we spar another day?" Chen Huan asked, a little embarrassed.

Liu Qian gritted her teeth, "We're in an emergency! We're so angry and upset, and you just want to abandon us after a phone call? You're such a jerk!"

"Yeah, that's so irresponsible of you! Why are you picking at it if you're not going to eat it?"

"I won't let you leave today, unless we've eaten our fill first!" Xiaoying persisted.

Chen Huan grinned. "I have to leave today no matter what. I can't go back on my word, especially since it concerns my reputation."

"I promise, I'll make it up to you properly next time I have the time, okay?"

Liu Qian sighed, "Fine, we can't really tie you up."

There's an old saying that goes, "A forced marriage won't be sweet."

"Xiaoying, let's let him off the hook for today. We'll squeeze him dry another day!"

Chen Huan fled the office as if he were escaping.

They immediately located Zhao Jingjing, who had just washed her hair and was about to get it styled.

He said hurriedly, "Let's do it another day, hurry up and become my driver."

At the mall entrance, Zhao Jingjing covered her head with a towel and complained angrily, "Chen Huan, what did you do? You made me look so disheveled."

"What's the rush?"

Chen Huan opened the car door and threw the various clothes that Zhao Jingjing had picked out into the back seat.

Without bothering to explain, he pushed her directly into the driver's seat.

Then he gave the order, "Full speed ahead, shut your mouths, and focus on driving."

Zhao Jingjing pouted and complained softly, "Look at you, so capable, you really think you're the boss."

"I'll let it go because your friend gave me so many high-end clothes and cosmetics today."

It took about an hour to get back to the town from the county seat.

However, when Chen Huan arrived at the sauerkraut fish restaurant, he found a car with the words "food inspection" printed on it already parked in front of the entrance.

"Damn, am I too late?" Chen Huan didn't even have time to greet Zhao Jingjing before pushing open the door and jumping down.

This was already the peak time for the restaurant.

However, apart from the inspection vehicle, there were no other vehicles in front of the door, and not a single customer could be seen inside or outside.

Chen Huan sensed something was wrong and quickly ran inside.

Several men who looked like staff members were walking around the lobby, checking here and taking pictures there; they were very busy.

"Chen Huan, over here." Qiao Lingling poked her head out of the kitchen and waved to him.

Chen Huan was about to go over, but was stopped by a staff member the next second.

The other party said very seriously, "We received a report that there is a problem with the ingredients at this sauerkraut fish restaurant, and it is a serious problem, so for safety reasons, we will be temporarily closed today."

"If you want to eat, let's go somewhere else."

Chen Huan frowned and explained, "I didn't come here to eat. The problematic ingredients you mentioned were provided by me."

The staff member's expression turned serious. He looked him up and down and then said, "I didn't expect you to walk right into my trap."

"Since you are the supplier of the ingredients, you should definitely not meet with the restaurant manager."

"To prevent you from colluding, you'll have to wait here until we finish testing before we decide what to do with you."

Chen Huan was somewhat annoyed.

Although he didn't know much about the inspectors' duties, he felt that their actions were a bit excessive.

"Are you trying to restrict personal freedom?"

"It seems you don't have that right. Even if someone reports that there's something wrong with the ingredients here, it doesn't mean there's actually something wrong with the place."

"I just want to go in and see if your so-called testing is illegal, is that right?" Chen Huan argued.

Because he could tell that Qiao Lingling was very anxious and desperately needed his help.

In addition, it seemed like there was an argument coming from the kitchen area.

I have no idea what's going on inside.

No matter what he said, the staff in front of him remained adamant.

In the end, he even put on a stern face and reprimanded her, saying, "Please don't interfere with our work."

"The police station is nearby; we can detain you with just a phone call."

"This food safety issue is very serious. If you don't want to increase your punishment, you'd better cooperate."

The two sides were arguing when suddenly a commotion came from the kitchen.

Immediately afterward, Qiao Lingling exclaimed, "Grandpa, what's wrong?"

"You bunch of bastards, I'll fight you to the death!"

Chen Huan knew something was wrong as soon as he heard that. He didn't bother to waste words with the staff member in front of him anymore, pushed him aside, and ran into the kitchen in a few steps.

The next second, Qiao Zhenshan was seen clutching his chest, his face ashen. Even though he was being supported by Qiao Lingling, he was still falling downwards.

Several staff members nearby seemed at a loss, constantly backing away, as if afraid of taking some responsibility.

Chen Huan rushed over, supporting Qiao Zhenshan with one hand and placing the other hand directly on his heart.

"Does the old man have a heart problem?" Chen Huan asked as he circulated his internal energy, sending it through his palm to Qiao Zhenshan's heart meridian.

Before Qiao Lingling could answer, his expression changed. "Is it that serious?"
