Transmigration: The Little Chef Calls The Shots-Chapter 1541 - 341, Catch the Petty Thief (Third Watch)_2

This man was indeed wealthy, and not just wealthy, but also a man in pursuit of refinement.

Those who dine in Dong Tian are knowledgeable folks from the capital city; upon seeing this man’s demeanor, they were instantaneously agape with shock, not even daring to let out a breath.

And what shocked them wasn’t just this, because they witnessed an even more astonishing sight.

They saw that the moment the man’s shoe sole touched the shorter man’s back, the shorter man’s legs began to slowly bend, his body descended along with it, and naturally, the man’s foot also followed downward.

Not until the shorter man’s legs were nearly curled up did the downward trend barely halt, and the foot that was stepping on his back also came to a stop.

The whole process was seamless, as if those feet controlled the shorter man’s body, pressing down would descend, releasing would stop.

Everyone watched in shock as the man stepped down from the shorter man’s back as though he had just been stepping on an automatic stirrup.

But this refined man had no leisure to care about the onlookers’ jaws about to drop; his eyes were tightly glued to the Dong Tian’s signboard, and with a slight part of his vermilion lips, melodious, musically crisp sound sprang from them.

"Dong Tian. Indeed, there’s more than meets the eye."

The man chuckled softly, with a swoosh, he opened the ink jade bone fan in his hand, walking and laughing, "Shorty, let’s go in and see what this more than meets the eye looks like."

"Yes, young master."

The shorter man followed, responding with a muffled voice, and closely followed the refined man into Dong Tian. His steps were as agile as his body; walking without a sound could be heard.

Many in the capital city would remember this day, remember this man, and even more so, remember the boots on the man’s feet.

At this time, Xia Zheng and Lin Yuan had already arrived at the General Mansion, but Xia Zheng cunningly smiled, instead of having Lin Yi stop the carriage at the front gate, he directed it around to the back gate. Without notifying anyone, they entered the General Mansion from the back door.

"Only you can sneak into your own home like a thief in the whole capital city, right?"

Hearing Lin Yuan’s teasing, Xia Zheng chuckled, tightly grasping her hand, then mischievously pulled her behind a column in the corridor, and sealed her little mouth with his index finger, not allowing her to make a sound.

Lin Yuan blinked her curious eyes at him, just about to push away his finger blocking her mouth, when she heard the voices of two maids talking from around the corner of the corridor.

The two maids each carried a food box, chatting as they walked past, completely unaware of the two people hiding behind the column.

Only after the two maids left, did Xia Zheng remove his finger from Lin Yuan’s mouth, but before she could react, he pressed his forehead against hers.

With helpless expression on her face, Lin Yuan could not blurt out a word now, because that guy’s lips were right in front of hers.

However, she didn’t speak, and a certain someone had no intention of letting her go.

"Today I truly experienced what it means: a wife is not as good as a concubine, a concubine is not as good as stealing."

Not sure if it was intentional or not, but as Xia Zheng spoke, his mouth puckered up, his cool lips seemed like they’d graze her warm ones, yet they also gave a not yet caressed sensation. It seemed that they weren’t close, yet it felt like a kiss was imminent.

Although it was just a simple sentence, in Lin Yuan’s eyes, it felt like an era had passed.

Lin Yuan’s cheeks immediately heated up, her heart like a Xiao Lu running amok, causing her entire body discomfort.

Not just Lin Yuan, the instigator Xia Zheng was also struggling; originally planning to tease Lin Yuan, he didn’t expect that he himself would end up suffering, feeling unbearably hot all over, almost like a volcano about to erupt.

Cough cough, cough cough.

Xia Zheng coughed lightly, quickly released Lin Yuan, and led her by the hand in the direction of the storeroom.

Seeing Xia Zheng’s flushed earlobes, Lin Yuan couldn’t help but pull up a smile at the corners of her lips, serves that guy right!

The storeroom was located in the southwest corner of the front courtyard, although not directly next to the Butler’s account room, it faced it from afar.

However, the storeroom was on the side, so the only small window it had opened out onto a narrow walkway.

The walkway only accommodated an adult sidestepping through. If one wished to steal something from the storeroom, one had only this small window, and the walkway was a necessary path.
