Chapter 504: Domineering Wei Wei During The First Confrontation

Liao Qingtian’s eyes darkened but he put up a smile on his face very soon.

Governor Chen was even more worried about Helian Wei Wei when he saw Liao Qingtian’s behavior. Perhaps it was easier to deal with Liao Qingtian if he showed his anger. The biggest taboo in the imperial court was to deal with this kind of smiling face tiger.

Owing to the fact that people would never know if he would stab you in the back when he was smiling at you.

Liao Qingtian pretended to be warm-hearted and reached out his hand. “Lord Wei, we have heard a lot of your great achievements. It’s our honor to have you with us now that you have come to our provincial capital.”

Helian Wei Wei took a glance at Liao Qingtian who was right in front of her. Her first reaction was to observe his attire.

He’s a general and yet he has the right to speak on behalf of the civil servants.

It’s evident how ambitious this general is.

Helian Wei Wei smiled and said, “I’m a newcomer and I’ve just engaged in politics. May I know who you are?”

“This is General Liao.” Governor Chen walked over at a slow pace, stressing on the word ‘Liao’.

Helian Wei Wei came to a realization all of a sudden. However, on the surface, she still greeted him politely, “Oh, General Liao, I’ve heard a lot about you.”

Liao Qingtian laughed in his heart when he heard what she said. This kind of person is indeed witty but they are really easy to be manipulated. So what if he has the support from Chen, he will still easily go with the stream.

He would give this Wei a little more time. If this person is astute enough to apologize to my elder brother and nephew in front of me, overturn his previous judgment and help me to get rid of Chen, I’ll let everything go with the wind.

Otherwise, he would make him regret stepping into provincial capital forever!

However, judging from Wei’s look, he would not be able to play any tricks either!

“Since Lord Wei has arrived, let’s go and have a nice meal together.” Liao Qingtian showed the code of brotherhood in order to match with his image as a general. “Let’s go directly to the Bayview Seafood Restaurant.”

Helian Wei Wei slightly raised the corners of her lips upon hearing the name of Bayview Seafood Restaurant. She uttered with profound meaning, “That’s indeed a good place.”

“I didn’t expect Lord Wei to have heard of Bayview Seafood Restaurant in our provincial capital as well. It seems like the seafood business in the provincial capital is doing well.” Liao Qingtian caressed his beard, looking quite proud of himself.

Many of the officials next to him also parroted his words, boasting about the restaurant.

It was not really a difficult thing to know who was the real boss of Bayview Seafood Restaurant.

Liao Qingtian took the lead and walked at the front. He was walking toward the private channel of Bayview Restaurant. The receptionist was different as well, which was why they did not recognize Helian Wei Wei.

Liao Qingtian had already thought of a countermeasure long before he met Helian Wei Wei. Everyone says that those who come from the village are simple and unadorned.

However, most of them do not know that sometimes, these children will find it hard to resist the temptation from the outside world as well.

Looking at the unpresentable attire of Wei, Liao Qingtian could imagine that this person had yet to get a glimpse of the world.

Once he tries the lobsters and abalones later, he will get to experience the life of being a wealthy person, and perhaps everything would be easy to settle.

However, just when that thought ran over Liao Qingtian’s mind and all the officials had taken their seats, Helian Wei Wei then smiled and said, “Since General Liao is so familiar with the staff in Bayview Restaurant, you will surely be able to clear doubt in my mind.”

Liao Qingtian thought that he wanted to ask about the dishes on the table as he had never seen what a lobster looked like before, thus, his smile became even more obvious, “Little Wei, just ask me directly if you have any questions.”

“Nothing much actually,” Helian Wei Wei said casually. “As you know, I am a poor scholar who just got appointed, I don’t really have not many savings...”

Upon hearing that, all the officials had the same look on their faces that said they knew this would happen, they chuckled softly with a hint of disdain on their faces. However, they were trying to comfort her, “Lord Wei, please don’t say so, a hero background is never important. No matter where you come from, all of us know about everything that you’ve contributed to the people.”

Governor Chen was the only one who coughed softly when he heard Helian Wei Wei saying that she was poor.

Not to mention the betrothal gift of 10 boxes of gold given by the Third Prince whose wealth is comparable to that of the country before the wedding, by simply judging from the profit of Wei Ze World, the Princess Consort might be counting money every day until her hands go limp with exhaustion. If such a person says that she’s poor, then wouldn’t they be even worse than beggars?

Governor Chen took a glance at Helian Wei Wei silently and sighed in his heart.

Helian Wei Wei obviously understood what he meant, but it did not affect her talking speed at all. She said softly and slowly, “Actually, I’ve arrived at the provincial capital in the afternoon and I wanted to take a meal before going to the yamen. But I did not expect that I would spend almost all my savings on the meal. I have a question for General Liao, why is the seafood in Bayview Restaurant so expensive? It’s 10 times more expensive compared to the price of seafood sold by the fishermen.”

All the officials were stunned when they heard that. They never thought someone would dare to ask such a question.

This is something everyone already knows but dares not say it out, otherwise...

They then sneaked a glance at Liao Qingtian while holding up their teacups. As expected, his smiling face slightly stiffened.

Helian Wei Wei acted as if she did not see Liao Qingtian’s expression at all. She then made a hand gesture and said, “Besides, prawns served on the table are totally different from those raised in the fish tank. They were so small in size. My Lords, have all of you ever encountered such a situation before?”

“No, no.” The rest of them knew very well the reason behind the story, thinking in their mind that they would never encounter such a situation as they were officials. Bayview Restaurant would indeed deceive people, but they had never deceived the officials as they still understood the rules here.

They subconsciously glanced at Liao Qingtian as they were thinking. Liao Qingtian’s eyes had turned gloomy.

Helian Wei Wei laughed and said, “I think you guys have better luck. I had encountered this the moment I came to the provincial capital. I wanted to ask somebody to do justice at first, but the waiter straight away told me not to bring about my own destruction as there’s someone up there who’s protecting Bayview Seafood Restaurant.”

Liao Qingtian listened quietly at the side and cursed in his heart, id*ot! He was thinking of getting the upper hand by taking the initiative to remove the waiter first and only let him return when the case was eased. This was to prevent Wei from finding any loopholes and bringing charges against him.

Helian Wei Wei continued to say, “I have been thinking for quite a while and yet I’m still not sure who’s the person up there that the waiter has mentioned. General Liao, you have been staying in the provincial capital for a long time, who do you think that person is?”

“I’m not so sure about it.” Liao Qingtian subconsciously started to clarify his relationship with Bayview Restaurant. “Perhaps the waiter is just boasting.”

Helian Wei Wei supported her chin with her fingers as if she was thinking about the suggestion given by Liao Qingtian. She then raised her thin lips and said, “How come I have never thought that the waiter is actually boasting. General Liao, that’s very thoughtful of you.”

“You flatter me.” Liao Qingtian replied with a smile. He can be fooled so easily, it seems like this Wei is so much easier to be dealt with than what I imagined.
