The courtyard house, without the script of Sha Zhu.

This made Cao Wei grit his teeth, but he was also somewhat helpless.

To be honest, as a time traveler, he had seen quite a few beautiful girls, so when he saw that the other party was about to make trouble, he immediately turned cold.

However, seeing the other person's tearful appearance, he couldn't help but sigh.

"I took you to the hospital, but you didn't say a word. I took you home, but you still didn't say a word. I thought you were mute."

Cao Wei did not hold back his words.

To his surprise, the girl opposite him stopped crying and stood up immediately.

She staggered a little as she approached Cao Wei, and couldn't help but stare at him with her big, watery eyes.

"You're the mute one, your whole family is the mute one."

"Alright, now you either have me take you home, or you walk back yourself. Which do you choose?"

Cao Wei had no interest in playing along with the young girl in front of him, so he simply gave her two choices.

The reason for this was that he had just used his spiritual eyes to examine the other person's feet.

It's just a little swollen.

However, the girl in front of him seemed a little indignant, and with her hands on her hips, she spoke with a somewhat aggrieved expression.

"You hit me, aren't you going to apologize?"

"Please get this straight, you suddenly appeared at this corner out of nowhere, and I've already rang the bell."

In Cao Wei's memory, although he was thinking about it, he also pressed the bell casually when he turned the corner.

This proves that the other person's sudden appearance and being bumped into was due to their lack of attention.

These words seemed to make the other person feel guilty, but after a while, they still couldn't help but mutter something.

"But you, a grown man, bumped into me..."

"Stop, stop, stop! The teachers all said that women in the new China hold up half the sky. Are you disagreeing with that?"

Cao Wei finally lost his patience and resorted to his old tactics, directly scoring a hat-trick.

The other party was clearly taken aback for a moment, and then began to explain, somewhat at a loss for words.

"Um...that's not what I meant. I'm sorry. I was just engrossed in my book, and I also did poorly on my exam and got scolded, so my attitude was a bit off. Could you please take me home?"

Seeing that the other party had apologized, Cao Wei's mood improved somewhat after the other party's unreasonable behavior.

"Alright."

Cao Wei ultimately didn't hold a grudge against the young girl in front of him, after all, he wasn't that petty.

He casually let the other person sit on the bicycle.

Cao Wei then noticed that the other person's mouth seemed to be a little bit broken.

"Hey, brother, what do you do for a living? How come you can afford a bicycle at your age?"

"Is your home...?"

"..."

At this moment, Cao Wei also experienced firsthand how difficult the other party was to deal with.

I decided to keep quiet and took the other person home. Then I saw the other person's parents come out.

Cao Wei was about to turn and leave when he was suddenly called back.

"Young man, wait a minute."

He could understand that in this day and age, when he brought someone's daughter back, the other party would inevitably ask a few questions. But at that moment, the girl seemed to have mustered up her courage and quietly finished telling him what had happened.

Of course, they overlooked their own unreasonable part.

The other person looked somewhat embarrassed after hearing this. So, after scratching his head, he spoke with a hint of apology.

"I'm so sorry, young man, my Lily has caused you trouble."

Upon hearing the name Lily, Cao Wei paused involuntarily, then tentatively asked a question in return.

"Is that Yu Li?"

This caused a hint of confusion in Yu Li's eyes, and she couldn't help but ask again out of curiosity.

Do you know me?

"No, I've heard people mention it before. I have a friend who goes to school nearby."

Cao Wei had no intention of continuing the conversation.

On my way back by bicycle, I was also thinking about whether God's decision to let me meet this person was fate or a way to keep me away from them.

He didn't quite like the extent of the difficult childbirth the other person had just experienced, but her appearance was still within his aesthetic range.

Therefore, Cao Wei also included Yu Li in his list of backup options; if he really couldn't find anyone else, he could consider her.

Meanwhile, Yu's parents couldn't help but press Yu Li for answers.

"Lily, that person may not be the best looking, but at his age, being able to ride a bicycle means his family must be quite well-off. The key is that he knows you. Dad really doesn't object, but you should find out the specifics yourself first."

Yu Li blushed at this, but she was also curious.

Why does the other person know me, but I don't know them?

After all, Cao Wei hadn't uttered a single word the entire way back, acting like a silent gourd.

Afterwards, by the time Cao Wei returned home, it was getting dark.

He finally breathed a sigh of relief, but then he saw the laundry girl by the pool.

To his surprise, he only glanced at her, and she only glanced back at him as well, before she hurriedly avoided eye contact.

This made Cao Wei secretly think to himself, "It seems that Jia Zhangshi has been putting in a lot of effort lately."

At the same time, Qin Huairu was now filled with intense hatred for Jia Zhangshi.

Ever since the so-called legitimate excuse of "Old Jia's miracle" came into being.

Her suffering began after Jia Dongxu went to work.

If she makes eye contact with any man for more than two and a half seconds, his sarcastic voice will immediately follow.

They didn't hold back at all when it came to their words, calling her a "slutty fox," a "whore," and a "reincarnation of the Eight Great Hutongs," using increasingly vile insults.

Although this earned Qin Huairu more sympathy, she wasn't stupid. She knew very well that Jia Zhangshi was now determined to get rid of her.

Under such pressure, Qin Huairu knew that if she really left, her reputation would truly be ruined.

Therefore, she had to temporarily abandon her plan to cling to Cao Wei.

And enjoy the spotlight that makes you feel like you're the center of attention.

Despite her rural background, she still valued her reputation highly.

Cao Wei, after a brief rest, arrived the next day.

When he went to work at Fengzeyuan, his mentor Zhang He and several other chefs from Fengzeyuan came up to him and discussed with him the specific way to make oil-splashed fish.

Just as noon arrived, Fengzeyuan's new signature dish, oil-splashed fish, was officially launched.

In this day and age, the elaborate preparation of oil-splashed fish was an instant hit.

At this point, Cao Wei even regretted making the dish, as it had really exhausted him.

Coincidentally, at that moment, several important figures were in a private room at Fengzeyuan Restaurant. One of them, after finishing Cao Wei's oil-splashed fish, couldn't help but have his eyes light up...
