After get off work, Wen Nuan went to the supermarket to buy gifts and then went to the noodle shop.

Wen Dazhi saw his daughter and asked her why she came at this time. Wen Nuan said that she was going to Beijing to attend Ye Binggang's graduation ceremony and would not be back the day after tomorrow, so she came in advance to give a Father's Day gift.

When Lu Cai heard about the gift, she ran over and asked, "Wen Nuan, what did you buy for your dad?"

"I bought some clothes, casual ones." Wen Nuan said with a smile, "Go back home tonight and try them on. If they don't fit, change them."

Seeing Wen Nuan was about to take her work clothes to work, Wen Dazhi stopped her and said, "Go back and pack your luggage early!"

Wen Nuan left the noodle shop and prepared to drive back. As soon as she got in the car, she received a call from Wang Jingyang. She pressed the answer button, "Hello!"

"Where are you? Have you eaten?" Wang Jingyang's voice sounded a little lazy.

Wen Nuan smiled and said, "I just came out of the noodle shop, but I didn't eat."

"Then please have dinner with me!" Wang Jingyang said, and then explained, "At my new workplace, the work and interpersonal relationships are too complicated. I need some strength."

Wen Nuan didn't believe it, "Not really! I don't believe you can't handle it!"

"It can be dealt with, but it's really tiring." Wang Jingyang said weakly: "I just finished a meeting with them. It was a battle of wits and courage. I need to drink some wine!"

Wen Nuan smiled, "Okay! Call Wen Rou and ask her to drink with you! I have to go to Beijing with Mr. Ye tomorrow, and I can't be drunk."

"Just drink water with me!" Wang Jingyang didn't want a third person to be present.

Wen Nuan could only compromise, "Are you still at work? Do you need me to pick you up?"

"No need, I'll take a taxi! I'll send you the location, you drive there!" Wang Jingyang hung up the phone and sent a location.

Following the navigation instructions, Wen Nuan drove the car to an old residential building complex.

She suspected that she had gone to the wrong place, so she stopped the car and called Wang Jingyang. When she looked up, she saw Wang Jingyang getting out of a taxi.

Wen Nuan got out of the car, locked it, and walked towards Wang Jingyang.

Looking back, Wang Jingyang saw Wen Nuan walking towards him, and the corners of his mouth slightly raised as he smiled.

"I thought we were in the wrong place!" Wen Nuan asked with a smile, "Is there a delicious restaurant hidden here?"

Wang Jingyang gestured for her to come in, and then led Wen Nuan inside. "There's a small shop here, it has a history of 20 to 30 years."

"What do you mainly do?" Wen Nuan became interested.

Wang Jingyang sniffed, "Do you smell the fragrance?"

Wen Nuan also sniffed like him, then asked, "Braised food?"

Wang Jingyang laughed warmly, "You have a dog's nose! You can smell that the shop is making braised food from such a distance!"

Wen Nuan didn't get angry after hearing this, "That's a skill! But since it's still quite far, why don't you let me drive in?"

"Everyone who lives here will be back soon, and your car won't be able to drive out." Wang Jingyang pointed at the narrow road, "You've never been here?"

Wen Nuan shook her head. "I'm not familiar with this area. But then again, how come you, a foreigner, know so much about this small restaurant even a local like me doesn't know about it?"

Wang Jingyang looked at her and smiled, "Of course someone brought me here."

The aroma of the braised meat became stronger and stronger. Wen Nuan saw a light on in a storage room behind the building, so she asked, "Is that it? Should we buy some and eat it back?"

"He bought two houses here, and each room was turned into a private room." Wang Jingyang introduced: "He is a boss with a lot of ideas."

As she got closer, Wen Nuan saw several steaming pots filled with stewed food, and she immediately felt like drooling. She turned around and asked Wang Jingyang, "What's delicious?"

The boss smiled and said, "They are all delicious!"

Wen Nuan also smiled and said, "This is your first time here, do you want to try everything?"

The boss looked at them and said, "It's better for two of you not to try everything. It's not enough to cut."

Wang Jingyang said to the boss: "One pig face, one pig stomach, two pig trotters, one large intestine, one pancake, one cucumber strips, and one garlic paste." Then he asked: "Which private room?"

Being led into a private room by the proprietress, Wen Nuan saw a long table inside with two benches on each side of the table.

The proprietress made tea for them and then went out.

"Is this a small bedroom on the shady side?" Wen Nuan said after looking around.

Wang Jingyang poured her some tea, "It should be! These are all old buildings, and the area is not large. This room is less than ten square meters."

"Thanks! But it looks clean!"

Wang Jingyang poured himself some tea and asked quietly, "Do you know how much money the boss and his wife have made over the years?"

"How much?" Wen Nuan also asked in a low voice.

Wang Jingyang stretched out five fingers and asked Wen Nuan to guess.

"Five hundred thousand? No, that's too little! Five million?" Wen Nuan said, looking into Wang Jingyang's eyes.

Wang Jingyang waved his hand, "Five houses, all in the new community of J City."

Wen Nuan couldn't believe this was true. "No way? Five houses in a high-end residential area, that's a conservative estimate of 10 million!"

“So, you can get rich by doing anything. It just depends on how hard you work, or whether you have the luck to make money!” Wang Jingyang drank the tea in the cup.

Wen Nuan wanted to get the teapot to pour him some tea, but he stopped her, "I'll do it myself! I was in a meeting all afternoon and didn't even have time to drink water."

"Are you that busy?" Wen Nuan couldn't help but ask.

Wang Jingyang smiled bitterly, "Someone wanted to intimidate me because he thought I had taken his position. If I hadn't been so well-mannered, he would have probably gone crazy on the spot."

"That won't do! It's not okay to get angry or curse at people in public!" Wen Nuan said hastily, "Once you give people a bad impression, it will be hard to change it later."

The door was suddenly pushed open, and the proprietress came in with four braised dishes and a bottle of wine. After putting the things down, she turned around and left the private room.

Wen Nuan looked at the wine that the proprietress brought in and said, "Erguotou? You, a Beijinger, are allowed to drink Erguotou?"

"They only sell Erguotou here, and you are not allowed to bring your own alcohol, so if you want to eat their braised food, you have to follow the local customs." Wang Jingyang said as he opened the bottle cap and poured himself some wine.

Wen Nuan asked worriedly, "Are you going to drink this bottle?"

"What? You look down on my drinking ability?" Wang Jingyang put down the bottle with a smile, "Come on, let's eat some food first and then drink!"

The door of the private room was suddenly pushed open again, and the proprietress came in with cucumber strips, pancakes and garlic paste. She put them down and left immediately with a fierce face, without saying a word.

Wang Jingyang laughed out loud and pointed at his head, "They all said that she's not doing well here!"

Wen Nuan also felt that the boss lady was indeed different from ordinary people. "It doesn't interfere with working and making money!"

"Half of the five houses were earned by her." Wang Jingyang sighed, "I heard that she has no children, but the boss has two children outside."

Wen Nuan suddenly felt that the stewed food was no longer tasty. "How could this happen?"
