Xia Zheng became even more diligent in his visits, having finally improved his relationship with Lin Yuan. If he didn't strike while the iron was hot, all his efforts would have been in vain. Young Master Xia's eyes hardly ever left Lin Yuan's figure; he felt itchy and uncomfortable all over whenever he couldn't see her for even a moment.
Fortunately, Shopkeeper Liu and a few other stewards looked after the business in Fuman Building, ensuring that nothing significant went wrong. Since Li Chang discovered Xia Zheng's true identity, he had been coming to Fuman Building to dine every two or three days, hoping to ingratiate himself. However, after several failed attempts, he abandoned the idea.
This turned out to be to Lin Siyu's advantage, who, following Li Chang, indulged daily in delicious food and drinks, gaining quite a few pounds in just a few days.
