After the skinny man took it, he opened it and quickly scanned it. After a while, he revealed a rare look of surprise.

At the same time, the girl in the cheongsam’s calm voice sounded in the tea room.

” A few years ago, there was a businessman who was on the verge of bankruptcy due to a business mistake. He was also burdened with a huge debt. He knew that he couldn’t pay it back, so he abandoned his wife and daughter and fled overseas with the money. This debt was recorded in Xuanwu Pass and Qilin Pavilion.”

‘ And now, in the shipwreck of the Astorokis that was announced by the Thousand Islands, I accidentally found the name of this merchant who had returned from the island in the list of victims. That’s why I asked the Thousand Islands to allow us to investigate. It’s fine if the name is the same, but if it’s really this person, it’ll be considered as closing a file.

After the girl in the cheongsam finished speaking, the skinny man put down the file.

The man looked at the calm young girl with a complicated expression. He wanted to say something, but in the end, his throat only moved.

He finally understood why the slick Qilin Pavilion would suddenly do such a reckless thing. If he was in the position of a young girl and received such a

piece of news, it would be difficult for anyone who knew everything to remain calm.

The skinny man from the White Tiger Hall drank the tea on the table in one gulp and cupped his hands at the young girl.

“Thank you for your cooperation, Lord Zhao. I’ve already understood the situation. Moreover, Lord Zhao has already submitted the documents to Black

Tortoise Pass, so there’s naturally no need for me to investigate. ”

After saying that, the man stood up and was about to leave the tea room. However, before he left, he seemed to be unable to hold it in. He did not turn around and said to the girl with his back facing the door,

“Although I know that saying this is a little b * stard, but… The past is in the past. Lord Zhao, please accept my condolences.

“Not long from now, the Emperor will come out of seclusion after a hundred years. At this critical moment, both the Qilin Pavilion and Lord Zhao must be present.

“I’ve spoken too much. Lord Zhao, please forgive me.”

After the lean man left the tea room, he quickly left the Qilin Pavilion with the White Tiger Hall soldiers. The staff in the pavilion heaved a sigh of relief when they saw this. What they were most afraid of was that the pavilion master would be carried away by the White Tiger Hall soldiers. It would be as if the sky had collapsed.

After a while, a bell rang from the pavilion master’s room in the deepest part of the room.

The two secretaries of the pavilion master, who had been waiting at the side

tor a long time, quickly obeyed tne summons and entered tne room.

They thought that the pavilion master would give some new orders, but who knew that the two female secretaries would notice a rare trace of fatigue on the face of the girl in the cheongsam.

“Jade…Sister Yu ‘Er, are you alright?” One of the younger secretaries, who had just taken office, could not help but ask.

“It’s nothing serious. I’m just a little tired.

“Then… Sister Yu ‘Er, let’s get the kitchen to make some lotus soup to nourish the body and refresh the mind!

“Lotus soup…l was indeed a little hungry, but I suddenly felt like eating another dish. “After hearing the secretary mention it, the girl in the cheongsam seemed to be lost in her memories and finally shook her head.

“Sister Yu ‘Er, no matter what dish you say, we’ll get the kitchen to prepare it!

“Go and prepare some boiled cabbage. “The girl finally recalled the familiar name of the dish.

“Open… Boiled Cabbage?” The new secretary looked confused.

In her eyes, the pavilion master was an extremely respected and worshipful person. It was obvious that she felt that this girl with the name of the dish and the cheongsam was really…lt doesn’t match?

Fortunately, the other female secretary beside him was much more experienced. She hurriedly stopped her companion who could not help but ask questions with her eyes and left the room.

“Sister Cecelia, why do you think Sister Yu ‘Er suddenly wants to eat cabbage? Or…What boiled cabbage? How tasteless would it be to boil cabbage with boiling water?”

The young secretary’s curiosity was met with another secretary’s rolling eyes and sigh.

“Boiled cabbage is just the name of the dish. Is there really a wife in the wife cake? You might think that boiled cabbage was boiled in boiling water, but in reality, boiling water referred to using the most tender chicken and duck, ribs, dried scallops, hoof meat, and many other precious ingredients. According to extremely strict proportions, many seasonings were added and the soup was brewed for at least four hours. That was not all. There was a more complicated process of absorbing the impurities in the soup. The soup had to be as clear as boiling water before it was completely completed.

“As for the selection of cabbage, it’s even more demanding. You have to use cabbage that’s almost ripe but not completely transparent, and only choose the tender yellow heart. After a complicated process, it’s finally combined with the soup stock.

After the slightly older female secretary explained, the younger female secretary beside her was already dumbfounded.

“Ah, ah, this…What the hell! Was there no wife in the wife pancake? I always thought there was! Pui, no, Sister Yu ‘Er’s boiled cabbage is referring to this.

I’ve learned…”

The young secretary lamented that money had limited her imagination, but at the same time, she became even more curious about the boiled cabbage.

“Sister Cecelia, you’ve been by Sister Yu ‘Er’s side the longest. Tell me a little bit. I saw that Sister Yu’ Er looked like she had a lot on her mind, but she specially called us here just for this dish.. There must be a story behind this!
