Reborn As Super Heiress

Chapter 92: Chapter 89: Picking Up from the Airport (Ninth Update)

No matter how you slice it, Huo Sining’s intervention was indeed a big favor to Ouyang Jun.

Huo Sining didn’t realize it, but Qin Shaoyou saw it clearly. During the meal, Ouyang Jun’s respectful attitude towards Huo Sining clearly meant he regarded her as an honored guest.

Given the Ouyang Family’s status in the capital, for Huo Sining to be treated differently by Ouyang Jun was like forming a good connection and hitting the jackpot.

However, Qin Shaoyou wouldn’t tell Huo Sining that, as he was quite displeased. He had looked at those Arhat fish yesterday and again today without figuring anything out, but Huo Sining had found the problem in less than half an hour.

If the fish had been sick and cured by Huo Sining, that would be fine; he would be convinced. The thing was, the root of the problem wasn’t with the fish at all but inexplicably lay with the Five Zhu Coins beneath the rockery – who the hell could have discovered that?

She really was **** lucky! Qin Shaoyou couldn’t help but curse in his mind as he unceremoniously carried away a large bucket of hairy crabs from Xianyu Shop.

After seeing off Qin Shaoyou, Huo Sining finally relaxed. She had been busy all night in the Yellow River, and after returning to Xianyu Shop, she continued to deliver crabs nonstop. After being busy all day, even with spiritual energy within her, she felt somewhat exhausted. She went upstairs, hurriedly washed up, and immediately fell asleep on the bed.

Early the next morning, while Huo Sining was still dreaming, she heard someone banging on the store’s door. She glanced at the time in a daze – it was just past six in the morning. Xianyu Shop wasn’t open yet, and Wu Jun should be doing morning exercises in the park. She groggily got out of bed and looked down the street from upstairs, only to be startled.@@novelbin@@

There were seven or eight people gathered at the door of her shop, and someone was knocking on the roll-up door with all their might, “Boss Huo, open up quickly!”

Huo Sining shivered, hurriedly shuffled downstairs in her slippers, and opened the door with a puzzled look at the crowd, “What’s happened?”

The people seemed taken aback for a moment, and an old granny looked a bit embarrassed as she said, “Boss Huo, we’ve come to buy hairy crabs.”

Huo Sining was speechless; she had thought something had happened, but it turned out these people had come to buy crabs.

There were many customers who had come to buy crabs yesterday, but Huo Sining still remembered a few of them. Once the old lady spoke, Huo Sining immediately recognized her and couldn’t help wondering, “Aunt Wu, it’s you. Didn’t you just buy ten crabs yesterday? Why have you come so early today?”

Madam Wu had already bought crabs once yesterday morning. Huo Sining had chatted with her and found out that the old granny lived near Yuyuan Street. She had come to Chenghuang Temple to stroll through the Flower and Bird Market and happened to see crabs for sale at Huo Sining’s place. So, she wanted to buy a few to try something fresh.

On hearing Huo Sining’s question, Old Granny Wu’s eyes crinkled with a smile:

“We finished them all last night, my grandson was home on holiday yesterday, and when we had hairy crabs for dinner, ten weren’t enough. Not to brag, but Boss Huo, the crab roe and meat from your place is really delicious, much better than what is sold at other markets. My grandson wasn’t satisfied after eating last night and insisted that I buy more today.”

Upon hearing this, Huo Sining immediately felt an unparalleled sense of satisfaction in her heart. She wasn’t boasting; these crabs were personally caught by her from the Yellow River.

At other free markets, what’s mostly sold are farm-raised crabs, but hers are pure wild natives, free from artificial feed or antibiotics, with absolutely no fraud involved.

Moreover, after being bathed in her Spiritual Energy, those crabs were all spirited and full of vitality, naturally making them tastier than those sold elsewhere.

After having dinner with Ouyang Jun and Qin Shaoyou at the restaurant last night, she couldn’t resist eating two crabs before going to sleep.

The people of S City are all astute, especially the old grannies who eat crabs every year; they can instantly tell the good from the bad. Old Granny Wu had gotten a taste of the good stuff, so she hurried over from her home early in the morning. And that’s not all; she even brought a few old men from the neighborhood who usually exercised with her in the morning.

With so many people waiting outside, although her sweet dream was interrupted, Huo Sining couldn’t just keep these gods at the door and not let them in, so she had no choice but to slowly roll up the shop’s shutter door and let the customers queue up according to the rules.

With Madam Wu acting as a live billboard and taste tester, advertising for her for free, those old men who had come along placed great trust in the crabs from Huo Sining’s shop. After Huo Sining took several of them to the back hall, they started picking by the pool.

Once Madam Wu and her group left, each carrying a bag of hairy crabs and looking content, Huo Sining was completely awake. With no more desire to sleep, she was thinking about finding something to do when Su Jinyuan’s call came through.

“Come with me to the airport later. Get ready, Secretary Lin and I will come pick you up,” Su Jinyuan said in his light but compelling tone.

“Huh?” Huo Sining was puzzled, like a monk who couldn’t figure out what’s going on, “Go to the airport for what?”

Su Jinyuan was a bit helpless too. He had just arrived at the company early in the morning when he got a call from his uncle, informing him that his grandfather and great-uncle were already on a flight to S City.

Upon receiving this message, Su Jinyuan was startled. His great-uncle was alright, as he had been in good health for years and flying posed no issue. The problem was his grandfather, who was so old and had difficulty with mobility. Why would he suddenly decide to come to S City?!

On the other side, Huang Jiapeng was also rather helpless. Ever since his younger sister called from the Imperial Capital a month ago to inform the family about Huo Sining, the two old men had been very excited, immediately wanting to visit their granddaughter’s daughter.

It just so happened that at that time Huo Sining was attending the freshman military training, so the family managed to convince the two elders to wait, only sending Huang Jialin to S City as a representative to secretly take a look.

After returning to the Imperial Capital, Huang Jialin briefly reported on Huo Sining’s appearance and living situation. Knowing that Xiao Yao was now doing well, the old man calmed down.

Thinking they could delay the matter a bit longer, the siblings of the Huang family even discussed bringing Huo Sining to the Imperial Capital for the New Year, so she could be formally introduced into the Huang Family Ancestral Hall. However, after receiving a phone call last night, the two old gentlemen were stirred up again, and this time no one could persuade them otherwise, insisting on hurrying to S City.

The family had no idea what exactly was going on, but with the two old children making such a fuss, how could the siblings dare to oppose them? They had to obediently buy plane tickets for the old man, and while Huang Jialin accompanied the elders on the flight, Huang Jiapeng immediately called Su Jinyuan to arrange the airport pickup.
