Chapter 86: The Frequency of Encounters

Ye Xinyan returned to the snack shop with the two hundred taels silver note in her hand, thinking that she wasn't sure how Jinrong's inquiry had turned out. If he insisted on getting to the bottom of this and couldn't find an answer at Great Crane House, he would surely come to the snack shop. At that time, she would have to reveal the method for creating the treat.

Qi Younian saw Ye Xinyan return and hand the silver note to him. He sat on the side, tilting his head in thought, oblivious even to Qi Jia walking by. He asked, "Ye Zi, what's wrong? Did Shopkeeper He become upset when you asked for an advance on the silver?"

Ye Xinyan came back to her senses and smiled, "Not at all; Shopkeeper He is easy to speak with. It was the Sixth Master, dining in a private room on the second floor of Great Crane House, who asked the waiter where the Ice Cream came from. He even insisted on knowing if it was stored in an ice cellar during winter."
