Well, after all this time, she had become a bad person.

As soon as Chen Meng’er put on her chef’s uniform, the chefs in the kitchen did not dare do anything. They all dropped what they were doing and held small notebooks in their hands. They were looking at Chen Meng’er with a face full of anticipation.

Chen Meng’er did not hide anything. When she stewed the medicinal cuisine, she would even explain to everyone in a low voice. What ingredients to prepare and when to put them in so that they would taste the best. It could be said that Chen Meng’er was giving everyone a free lesson.

These chefs were also writing down every word that Chen Meng’er said in their notebooks.

Every time they saw Chen Meng’er cook, these chefs felt that they had benefited greatly. If they didn’t know Chen Meng’er’s identity, these chefs would have wanted to acknowledge Chen Meng’er as their teacher.

“Alright, it’s done. I still have something to do in a while, so I’ll have to ask everyone to help me keep an eye on the fire.” Chen Meng’er had a look of success on her face.

“Little Miss, go ahead and do your work. We’re here. We’ll keep an eye on it for you.” The head chef patted his chest and promised Chen Meng’er.

“Yes, thank you very much.”

Chen Meng’er took off her chef’s uniform and came out of the kitchen. When she reached the hall, she happened to see Qu Yaotian and the others who had rushed back in a hurry.

When Qu Yaotian and the rest received a call from Qu Haoxiang, they were very busy.

Qu Haoxiang was a shrewd person. He knew that the men of the Qu family did not recognize their relatives when they worked. He reckoned that only when Chen Meng’er made a phone call while they were working would it be okay. So, to prevent himself from being scolded, Qu Haoxiang made the first move and hung up before Qu Yaotian and the others could lose their temper.

When Qu Yaotian and the rest heard the sound of the call being ended, their faces darkened and they frowned. They kept muttering and scolding Qu Haoxiang. Ever since Qu Haoxiang had called his uncle and the rest one by one, he had been sneezing non-stop and his ears were burning,

“Dad, why did you call us back so urgently? Did something happen at home?” When Qu Yaotian and the rest came in, they walked in a hurry and scolded Qu Haoxiang a lot in their hearts. This kid was really unreliable. He didn’t even explain himself when he called and hung up the phone.

It caused them to be worried all the way. One had to know that under normal circumstances, their father, Elder Qu, would not call them during their working hours and let them rush back.

Just like that, when the brothers met at the main entrance, they looked at each other and their eyes could not hide their anxiety and worry.

Elder Qu did not reply to Qu Yaotian’s words but swept his gaze over them. After seeing that all his sons had arrived, he said with a serious expression, “You are all back. Then, Haoxiang, go to the kitchen and call Meng’er.”

“Alright.” Qu Haoxiang could not wait to leave this place. He had wanted to escape a long time ago, but he had never found an opportunity nor an excuse. Now, his grandfather had thrown such a good opportunity at him. How could he not cherish it?

Qu Haoxiang had just raised his foot and the joy in his heart had not yet subsided when he heard his grandfather continue, “Call Meng’er. Come with her.”

“Ah?” Qu Haoxiang felt his vision darken. His grandfather must have done it on purpose today.

“What are you saying? Hurry up and go.” Elder Qu glared at Qu Haoxiang.

Qu Haoxiang suddenly felt his skin tighten. He did not dare speak anymore. “Yes, Grandpa.”

“Grandpa, where are you asking my brother to go?” Chen Meng’er looked at Qu Haoxiang and felt that it was very funny. Just like that, she impolitely covered her mouth and laughed in front of Qu Haoxiang.

Qu Haoxiang saw the smile on Chen Meng’er’s face and gave Chen Meng’er a bitter look.

“Meng’er is here. That’s good. Let’s go to the study.” When Elder Qu saw Chen Meng’er, he immediately changed his expression.

Qu Yaotian and the others had been confused ever since they received Qu Haoxiang’s call. However, when they saw Chen Meng’er, they had some idea that this matter was definitely not small. They guessed that this matter had something to do with the Lu family.

They had heard a lot of news today that the people from the Lu family were going to be acquitted. However, these news did not come from the right path. In addition, they were all quite busy today, so they did not take this matter to heart.

Actually, they knew more in their hearts what crime the Lu family had committed this time. With such a crime pinned on their heads, no matter who it was, it would be difficult for them to turn the tables. Moreover, their Qu family was also involved in this matter of the Lu family.

Hence, they felt that no one would dare take the risk to help the Lu family at this time.

But now, when they saw Chen Meng’er, they felt that the news they had heard before might be true.

When they reached the study room, Qu Yaobing could not help but ask, “Dad, Meng’er, you called us back, is it because of the Lu family’s matter?”

“You can say that. Looks like you have heard about the Lu family’s matter.” Speaking of serious matters, especially such an important matter, Elder Qu wiped away the smile on his face, his face solemn.

Speaking of which, when Elder Qu didn’t smile, it was really creepy.

In any case, Elder Qu was often used by the people in the courtyard to scare the children at home.

“I heard a little about it. However, we didn’t take this matter to heart at that time and thought that it was just a rumor spread by others. Looking at it now, it really was. Dad, who was involved in this matter? Who is involved in the Lu family’s matters now?” Qu Yaotian could not think clearly, who would interfere in the Lu family’s matters at this time?
