?Chapter 284: 284 Silent Guard (First Update) Chapter 284: 284 Silent Guard (First Update) Ali handed the bag of pastries to the customer, smiling, “Take care, honored guest, do come again next time.”
Outside the doors of Ruyi Square, a large crowd of customers was queuing up; Ali glanced up and saw a familiar figure. He looked closely, hardly believing his eyes—it was indeed Li Xianyun who had returned.
Overjoyed, Ali noticed that Li Xianyun had grown thinner after half a month but looked even more attractive.
Ali let someone else take his place at the front and walked up quickly with a beaming smile, “Young Master, you’ve returned from the Border Market.”
Before leaving for the Border Market, Li Xianyun had told Ali of his intentions for the trip.
“Mm,” Li Xianyun nodded slightly, “Has everything been running smoothly?”
Ali grinned, “Ever since the eighth month festival, business at Ruyi Square has suddenly boomed. Lots of people are saying they’ve had our pastries, ice porridge, and preserved fruit at a palace banquet. From word-of-mouth alone, people from Shangjing come pouring in, almost creating deserted streets elsewhere. Ruyi Square’s reputation is soaring, even the children in the streets know of us now.”
Unable to contain his curiosity, he asked, “Young Master, what exactly happened? Why is everyone saying Ruyi Square supplied the food for the palace banquet?”
Li Xianyun’s lips curved into a slight smile, “You don’t need to know why, if others say that Ruyi Square’s pastries were for royal use, just keep silent. Turning a blind eye will benefit Ruyi Square without causing any harm.”
Ali chuckled mischievously, “That’s what I thought too, hence if people bring up the palace banquet, I just laugh it off, neither denying nor confirming it, which leaves no room for criticism.”
