Chapter 794 - 100 Family_2
With this development, the Meng Family Wine House’s business became uniquely dominant. Although many people suspected the Mengs, the issues that occurred in their wine were eventually all resolved by the head of the Meng family. As for how these problems were resolved, outsiders had no clue.
The more Lin Yuan listened, the more she felt that there was something fishy about the situation, and she also started to worry about Liu Limin. Back when she had acquired the Century-old Cake Shop, she heard that the Meng family was among the competitors, but in the end, it was because Shopkeeper Liu had helped resolve the crisis for the Chen family that the Young Lady Chen agreed to sell the cake shop to her.
Now that she thought about it, given Meng Tong’s character, it was impossible for him not to bear a grudge against Liu Limin, who had taken over the Century-old Cake Shop. However, he indeed had not made things difficult for her. The reason for that was that the old rogue had taken a fancy to Liu Limin.
No wonder that guy even sent fruits to Liu Limin during the New Year!
Despite that, both Lin Yuan and Xia Zheng were certain that behind the scenes, the Meng family had sabotaged the other wine houses in Zhuma Town that had encountered problems. As for the Chen family, when their household had been surrounded, Shopkeeper Liu felt that there was more to the story and sent people to investigate. Sure enough, they found that someone had bribed a group of men to cause trouble, intending to coerce the Young Lady Chen. However, they did not expect Lin Yuan to step in and seize the opportunity mid-scheme.
As for the person behind the curtain, it was likely that Meng Tong was involved.
"It’s not just these incidents." Liuzi swallowed a mouthful of saliva, speaking more and more mysteriously, "I’ve also heard other things. The head of the Meng family is an old lecher. Any woman he sets his eyes on, whether she’s a respectable lady, a brothel woman, an unmarried girl, or a married woman, he’d use every trick in the book to get her. Consequently, in the Meng Family Mansion, there are no less than twenty little concubines. Oh boy, that old rogue is really something!"
While Liuzi was speaking, there was even a hint of envy on his face. Perhaps for a man, to be accompanied by so many women was a great joy.
Lin Yuan scoffed, casting a sidelong glance at Xia Zheng sitting beside her, her meaning clear without words.
