Apocalypse Foodie System: Watch Her Cook!-Chapter 126 - 121: Scheming Thoughts
After Yiyi warned the shop assistant, she took the group back to the Tang Family by car. She led them in through the back door, not disturbing the customers in the store. Therefore, aside from Pang Zhi, no one knew she had returned.
At this moment, people online were discussing just what had happened to Yiyi.
Earlier, when Yiyi heard the sharp voice of the middle-aged woman, she guessed something had happened at Zhang Haoyu’s home, so she had someone turn off the camera. The video abruptly stopped there. Many people were paying attention to the video, and with that middle-aged woman’s loud voice, everyone watching the video heard it clearly!
These people were both worried and curious, but since the video was interrupted, they couldn’t see what happened next, so they started discussing online, guessing what might have happened to Yiyi.
Pang Zhi was also following the video, so as soon as it stopped, he immediately called Yiyi’s contact number. However, at that time, Yiyi had turned off the call notifications on her personal terminal, so she didn’t notice Pang Zhi’s call. It wasn’t until Pudding helped her reply that Pang Zhi was reassured.
As soon as Yiyi walked in, the long-waiting and impatient Pang Zhi rushed towards her, as excited as if they hadn’t seen each other for years. Seeing Pang Zhi rushing towards her, Yiyi thought of the child in her belly and swiftly dodged. Pang Zhi, unable to stop in time, staggered before he could stand firm, then looked at Yiyi with a resentful gaze, as if looking at a heartless scoundrel!
Yiyi was momentarily stunned, almost wanting to smack Pang Zhi against the wall!
At this moment, Pang Zhi suddenly noticed Zhang Xue and Zhang Haoyu behind Yiyi. Zhang Xue’s face was very pale; although she tried hard to hide it, her unease was still evident. As for Zhang Haoyu, his eyes were big and curious, looking around with joy!
When Zhang Xue was pregnant, in order to secure the child in her womb, she used her Wood Ability to nourish him. As a result, when the child was finally born healthy, her own body had become severely deficient.
At this point, she dared not use her ability recklessly. Though she was a Superpower User, she lived a harder life than ordinary people! She lived with Zhang Haoyu in a dilapidated slum, causing Zhang Haoyu to endure hardship from a young age. Coming from such a shabby place to here felt like moving from hell to heaven; the difference was just too vast!
Seeing that Pang Zhi had noticed Zhang Xue and her son, Yiyi simply instructed him to take care of the pair. Once the two settled in with their luggage, Yiyi secretly told Pang Zhi that Zhang Xue was a Wood Ability User!
She purposely kept Zhang Haoyu’s abilities a secret, not telling Pang Zhi, worried he might accidentally mention it to others, causing unnecessary trouble.
Although Pang Zhi didn’t know about Zhang Haoyu’s abilities, upon hearing that the frail-looking Zhang Xue was a Wood Ability User, his gaze turned fervent! He no longer had any objections to Yiyi taking in Zhang Xue and Zhang Haoyu!
With his consent, Zhang Xue and Zhang Haoyu managed to settle in without having to worry about provoking others’ discontent.
After Zhang Xue moved in, Yiyi stopped providing her with Ant Eggs. Instead, after consulting Pudding’s opinion, she provided her with some Mutated Beast Meat.
Two months passed quietly like this. During these two months of publicity and accumulation, not only did Tang Family gain fame, but it also established a foothold. As long as Yiyi and Pang Zhi didn’t act foolishly, the development of Tang Family was bound to be promising!
It’s just that at this moment, the two were unaware that the smoother Tang Family’s path, the more it became a thorn in the side of others, who were eager to remove it! Among them were Sun Yue and Pang Xiao.
Initially, neither paid much attention to ’Tang Xiao’, thinking she was just a female con artist, waiting to see Pang Zhi make a fool of himself. Later, when Tang Family’s physical store opened, they both believed ’Tang Xiao’ and Pang Zhi were just fronts, and the real owner of Tang Family was Pang Xiao, so they fully committed to dealing with Pang Xiao, directly ignoring ’Tang Xiao’ and Pang Zhi.
Pang Xiao innocently became collateral damage, almost overwhelmed by Sun Yue and Pang Xiao’s dealings, inadvertently shielding Yiyi and Pang Zhi from quite a bit of trouble. After all, while Tang Family’s fame in Qinghe City was high, to those aristocratic families and tycoons, it was just an insignificant small shop, not worth the effort to target.
Sun Yue and Pang Xiao thought this way too and were unwilling to bother with Tang Family, instead focusing all their efforts on dealing with Pang Xiao.
It wasn’t until two months passed, and Tang Family’s reputation grew louder, that Sun Yue and Pang Xiao felt a crisis! They both realized they couldn’t let Tang Family continue to grow unchecked! 𝗳𝚛𝗲𝕖𝕨𝕖𝗯𝚗𝚘𝕧𝕖𝗹.𝗰𝗼𝕞
They were both close to Pang De, with one being his wife and the other his favored son. Although they didn’t know Pang De’s character intimately, they still knew quite a bit. While Pang De had abandoned Pang Zhi, if Pang Zhi showed exceptional business talent, Pang De would definitely appreciate him again!
Sun Yue and Pang Xiao could not tolerate this! In their view, the Pang Group was theirs, and no one else should even think of touching it, not even Pang De’s son!
So when they turned their attention back to Tang Family, they changed their previous stance of targeting only Pang Xiao, resolving to stop Tang Family from operating!
Because of this matter, the mother and son privately discussed for a long time, telling no one. In the end, Sun Yue came up with a wicked plan! When she told Pang Xiao about it, he readily agreed and volunteered to let Sun Yue allow him to handle it.
Sun Yue, eager to nurture her son, naturally agreed to his request. So, after parting from her, Pang Xiao immediately opened his personal terminal to contact someone.
At this time, Yiyi’s belly was already quite big, visible even under loose clothing. Zhang Xue, having been through the experience, had long noticed Yiyi’s pregnancy, but being clever, she didn’t utter a word, keeping it secret.
Pang Zhi, on the other hand, was still a young man who had never even seen a pregnant woman before. Yiyi was so young that he couldn’t have imagined she was pregnant.
Initially, he simply thought Yiyi had gained weight. Later, when he noticed her belly getting bigger and bigger, he began to suspect she had a tumor, desperately wanting to drag Yiyi to the hospital for treatment.
It wasn’t until Yiyi, unable to bear his pestering any longer, told him she was just pregnant that Pang Zhi settled down, only to begin causing a different kind of trouble again.
For example, at this moment, as Yiyi lay in a massage chair receiving a massage, Pang Zhi sat not far away, his chubby fingers supporting his chin, his eyes fixated on Yiyi’s belly.
As for Sun Yue and Pang Xiao’s schemes, they had no impact on them at this moment! (To be continued. If you like this work, please vote for it at Qidian (qidian.com), your support is my greatest motivation. Mobile users please visit m.qidian.com to read.)
