Luo Cheng asked after a while, “Where have you been all these years?”

Xue Shanhui said, “I hid my ident.i.ty and even faked my death because I wanted to secretly investigate who had targeted our family back then. Unfortunately, all these years, although I found some clues, those clues were cut off at the critical moment! I heard that you had recovered your ident.i.ty as a prince and that you had been conferred the t.i.tle of king of a fief, so I wanted to seek refuge with you and use your power to investigate what happened back then!”

Luo Cheng thought of something and said, “In that case, it’s not appropriate to expose your ident.i.ty. Let’s do it secretly!”

Xue Shanhui said, “Sure, you can call me Dark Night. In the future, I’ll wear a mask in front of others so that others won’t recognize me!”

Luo Cheng pondered for a moment and said, “Since you want to work for me, the stronger the better. I’ll be conducting a training camp soon. You should partic.i.p.ate too! After the training, I’ll arrange tasks for you!”

Xue Shanhui said, “Sure, I’m not in a hurry. The other party is really well-hidden, so we won’t be able to catch him in a short while. I have patience.

Take things slow!”

Thus, the matter was settled.

After that, the two of them drank a few more mouthfuls of wine and talked for a while before Luo Cheng left.

When Luo Cheng returned, Li Xiaoran was still awake.

Li Xiaoran had a sharp sense of smell. As soon as Luo Cheng pushed open the door and entered, she smelled alcohol.

“Husband, did you drink?”

Luo Cheng nodded. “Yes. I just had a few gla.s.ses, but you can still smell it?”

“That’s right! Hurry up and wash up. I have something to tell you later!” Li Xiaoran nodded with a smile.

Luo Cheng said as he went to get a change of clothes, “Alright, wait for me for a moment. I’ll be quick!”

Before long, Luo Cheng washed off the smell and came to look for Li Xiaoran.

“Of the more than ten people you let me see today, eight of them can’t be accepted. These eight people were planted by others, but the other four can be used. Although the man in black who spoke to you today hates you, he won’t

hurt you,” Li Xiaoran said.

“The other is the white-robed man who discovered that I’m a woman. This person is very observant and can be nurtured. In addition, there are the two people who fought today. These two people are relatively simple-minded, but we can only see if they have any other skills. If they don’t have any skills, there’s no need for them to stay!”

When Luo Cheng heard Li Xiaoran’s words, he immediately gasped.

“Good lord, I asked you to help me choose people, but you eliminated eight at once! Are you sure there’s something wrong with all eight of them?”

Li Xiaoran nodded and said, “No matter what talent these eight people have, they can’t be kept! Or husband, do you think you’re confident in making them loyal to you?”

Luo Cheng said with a smile, “We can’t eliminate all eight of them. Let’s keep them all! On the one hand, it can show my desire for talent, and on the other hand, we can keep an eye on them. Li Xiaoran, think about it. Even if we eliminate these eight people, can you guarantee that those people won’t send anyone else? We can’t eliminate any of these eight people. Instead, we have to keep them all!”

When Li Xiaoran heard Luo Cheng’s words, she sighed.

“Sigh, how mentally exhausting!”

“Don’t think about this if you’re tired. Leave these things to me! You just need to do what you want! For example, when will our grilled fish shop open?” With that, Luo Cheng reached out and patted Li Xiaoran’s head.

Li Xiaoran ignored her worries and decided to do as Luo Cheng said.

“Grilling fish is simple. Find some reliable and talented people, and after a little training, they will be able to roast fish. The most important thing is the shop!” When Li Xiaoran mentioned this, her mind raced.

Luo Cheng said with a smile, “Don’t worry, the shop is ready. As long as there are fish and chefs, we can open the shop!” When Li Xiaoran heard this, she was stunned.

“Huh? It’s that simple?”

Luo Cheng teased, “How is it simple? We have people and money now, so it’s naturally simple to do things. Besides, with my current ident.i.ty, I won’t encounter anyone making things difficult for me when doing business, so it’s naturally simple!”

When Li Xiaoran heard this, she immediately sighed.

“No wonder it’s easier for rich people to earn money, but it’s too difficult for poor people to get things done, just like how I ran the sliced noodles shop previously. If I didn’t have the capital and you didn’t support me, my business wouldn’t have been able to do well!”

Luo Cheng praised Li Xiaoran with a smile, “You worked hard as well! If it weren’t for your brains and culinary skills, the sliced noodles business wouldn’t have developed to this extent! Xiaoran, don’t belittle yourself. Actually, you’re very impressive too!”

To be honest, what moved him was Li Xiaoran’s vitality and persistence.

As long as it was something she wanted to do, she would think of a way to do it well.

Her persistence and vitality was what he lacked.

In the past, he lived like a walking corpse. He felt that life was very mundane and he had no pa.s.sion at all.

However, after he married Li Xiaoran, he felt that his life changed. Everything became more lively, and he became more motivated to do things.

Zhao Xiu had the same feeling.

Zhao Xiu had made some jewelry during this period of time.

Although Luo Cheng had provided her with a lot of materials to make jewelry, Zhao Xiu felt restrained. The things she made had no creativity at all.

After throwing a freshly made silver hairpin to the side, Zhao Xiu leaned back on the stool in frustration.

When Li Shun, who was carving something with wood, saw his wife’s dispirited expression, he quickly came over to ask with concern, “Wife, what’s wrong?”

Zhao Xiu said dejectedly, “I made a few silver hairpins, but the more I make, the more dissatisfied I become. I used up a lot of the materials, but I don’t even have a single piece of presentable work!”

When Li Shun looked at the silver hairpin Zhao Xiu had made, he felt that something was missing.

“Why don’t I bring you to White Foothill City tomorrow to take a look and see what other people’s silver hairpins look like? Perhaps only then can you feel some inspiration! It just so happens that we can use this opportunity to hide for a while.. I keep feeling that my niece, Li Yan, is up to no good!”
