Chapter 1198 Mysterious Man (1)

The Huo family had already been back for a few months yet had made no progress. They were naturally vexed.

The year passed swiftly, and soon it was the end of the year.

Winter in the capital was always very cold. Few people went out in the depths of winter.

It was very warm in the Mo house. The rooms were always very cozy. Gu Qingyao was at home, looking at her accounts.

At the end of the year, the businesses she owned would do their year-end accounts, especially her businesses in the capital. The accounts had been sent over recently.

Chen Ke was on the line, reporting to her.

“There are no major problems, just that I have to tell you that there are still many important women who have been at the restaurant lately. They like to come here and wait for you. I’ve mentioned all of them to you before, and no one stands out. The name list is attached to the accounts. You can see for yourself.

“The only unusual one is that Huo Tianning from the Huo family. He has been coming almost every day of late. That fellow has tried almost all the dishes in Jin Jiang Restaurant, and all the red wines too. No matter what the price, he is willing to pay it. “I especially had him tracked and realized that he not only comes to Jin Jiang Restaurant, he also goes to the fish and pickles restaurant. He goes there every day too. He alternates between Jin Jiang Restaurant and the fish and pickles restaurant for lunch and dinner, and he always tries something new. He has tried all the dishes here. That fellow has really increased our revenue significantly!”

Gu Qingyao: “…” Huo Tianning?

That playboy from the Huo family?

Why was that fellow visiting her restaurant every day?

“Are you sure? He goes there every day?” “Practically every day. Sometimes he doesn’t come for a day or two, but I’ve sent someone to investigate, and he always has something special arranged on those days and did not manage to make it in time. Otherwise, he will come every day.” Gu Qingyao: “…” “He only orders food and eats, nothing else?” “Nothing special, but he asks a lot of questions. He seems especially interested in the dishes. He will ask a lot of questions every time he tries something new. Sometimes, he will even request that the chef come over and explain it to him.

“Obviously, I would not permit such a thing. Jin Jiang Restaurant’s cooking methods are our selling point; we, of course, will not just tell anyone. But he is very insistent. He says that he does not want to know our cooking methods. He’s just curious about our dishes and wants to understand more about them. He’s even willing to pay extra.

“The subordinates have reported that in order to gain more information about our dishes and understand them completely, Huo Tianning has even given them red packets. Of course, he did not bypass the head chef either. He gave him an especially big red packet, and more than once too!”

Gu Qingyao was suspicious. What was this fellow up to?

Surely, he did not know that Jin Jiang Restaurant belonged to her? Gu Qingyao hung up after a few more words with Chen Ke. Mo Beihan happened to enter and saw that something was amiss and asked, “What’s wrong?” “That Huo Tianning has been acting unusually lately. He visits Jin Jiang Restaurant and the fish and pickles restaurant every day. He’s tried all the dishes in those two places and even gave the head chef a big red packet to explain each dish in detail.”

Little One was playing with his toys nearby. He paused when he heard that, then after a while, he carried on playing. Mo Beihan frowned. “Is that so? What is he up to? Copying the Qiao family is not enough, now he wants to copy Jin Jiang Restaurant?”
