Chapter 373 Li Chang Visits (2)_1
Li Chang had also inquired about the situation in the shop and repeated word for word the praises he had heard from the government officials about Rice Flower Fragrance, as though he himself had tasted her pastries.
Lin Yuan knew these flattering words were meant for Xia Zheng to hear, so she just pulled at the corner of her lips, quietly listening, and occasionally nodding her head to show face.
It wasn’t until Xia Zheng, sitting aside, yawned impatiently that Li Chang coughed awkwardly with an unfinished sentence and hastily took his leave.
Watching Li Chang’s fleeing figure, Lin Yuan couldn’t hold back her laughter anymore. Xia Zheng truly was the feared Little Tyrant, even Master Magistrate acted like a mouse who had seen a cat in his presence.
In the main hall, Fifth Sister Bai and the others looked at each other with puzzled faces, their eyes wide, some still not reacting to what had just happened. Was that person who had come to offer gifts really Master Magistrate? The same who did nothing but collect gifts and hang out in brothels?
Not just them, even the bosses from the neighboring shops had gathered in groups to discuss, casting unusual glances at Lin Yuan.
Lin Yuan never cared about the gazes of others and didn’t let it bother her.
However, she did have to ask Xia Zheng about it.
She lifted her foot and kicked his long legs that were stretched out far: "Did you send Lin Yi to find him?"
Xia Zheng raised an eyebrow and smiled as if seeking credit, "How about that, isn’t it quite impressive?"
Lin Yuan pursed her lips.
