Transmigration: The Little Chef Calls The Shots-Chapter 1370 - 198, Flirting (Second Update)_2

"Rest assured, it’s nothing, probably just an accident."

Lin Yuan smiled nonchalantly, but inside, she was eager to watch the drama unfold. Xiao Linshuang was not like Lin Wei, a naive fool who didn’t even know when she was being bullied. She had seen it just now; Xiao Linshuang’s fingers had also moved slightly. Hmph, she truly was the little wolf cub Lao Fan had mentioned—indeed ruthless!

Han Huijuan didn’t understand why Lin Yuan suddenly didn’t care, and was about to say something else when Shui Xian led her aside to look at the new skincare products from Frost Pavilion.

Looking again at Xiao Linshuang, she still smiled with her eyes curved.

However, Han Chaosheng’s heart fluttered. That girl, did she just respond to him? Oh my, it was really unexpected—such a young age, and already so adept at seducing people. Interesting, interesting!

Han Chaosheng licked his lips greedily, contemplating if he should find a secluded moment later to do what he needed to do.

Just when he was pleased with his thoughts, he was suddenly pushed forcefully to the side by someone.

"Hey! How dare you! You dare to push your Grandpa Han? Wanting to die..." He blusterously turned around and when he saw the child who suddenly appeared, his voice instantly faded away, his knees weakening as he instinctively knelt: "Sixth... Sixth Prince..."

"How dare you!" Eunuch Chang screeched at the already terrified Han Chaosheng, which made Han Chaosheng’s face even paler.

The newcomer was none other than Sixth Prince Zhao Hongyan. Today was the opening day of Frost Pavilion, and he had played with Xiao Linshuang earlier, already aware of her plans to open a shop. Moreover, Xiao Linshuang had given Zhao Hongyan a few boxes of high-quality Condensation Dew to take back and present to Consort Tian.

None of the women in the palace had seen anything like it, but Consort Tian particularly loved these ordinary-looking boxes of Condensation Dew. Afterwards, she asked Zhao Hongyan to buy a few more boxes to give to several other Concubines in the palace. Everyone who tried it gave rave reviews. Now, not only were the women outside the palace looking forward to Frost Pavilion, but even those inside were also anticipating it.

The Sixth Prince had intended to visit incognito, but with Eunuch Chang’s outcry and Han Chaosheng kneeling the moment he saw him, so much for incognito.

Fortunately, all the women inside were focused intently on various skincare products and didn’t notice the commotion at the entrance.

"Master Han, please stand up. Didn’t you see that the Sixth Prince is in casual attire today?" Lin Yuan inwardly sneered but maintained excellent composure. To Lady Bai and Han Chaosheng, it sounded like she was trying to smooth things over for Han Chaosheng. Zhao Hongyan also nodded, signaling Eunuch Chang to step back: "Are you the son of Han Taining? Hmm, stand up! You should know how to speak, right?"

"I know, I know, in my heart..."

Han Taining had secured a minor official position for his son. Although he did not often see the Emperor, he had fortunately met several princes, which was why he immediately recognized Zhao Hongyan today.

Han Chaosheng was still blabbering flattering words, but Zhao Hongyan was not interested in his prattle and directly took out a small brocade box from his sleeve and presented it to Xiao Linshuang as an opening gift.

"Oh, how annoying, go stand over there!" Eunuch Chang, annoyed by Han Chaosheng’s constant chatter, nudged him aside.

Eunuchs in front of royal consorts were not to be trifled with easily. Even if Han Chaosheng was not accustomed to staying in the palace, he understood this well. Moreover, at that moment, he had no intention of arguing with Eunuch Chang, as he was utterly stunned by what he saw before him.

My heavens! What did he see?

Xiao Linshuang actually knew the Sixth Prince! Looking at them, they seemed to be very good friends!

A warning bell instantly rang in Han Chaosheng’s mind. Whom he had just harassed wasn’t just any woman; she could potentially be a future Prince’s Consort!

Someone walked by, bumping into the stiff-bodied Han Chaosheng slightly, but at that moment, Han Chaosheng felt nothing. All he felt was his back soaked with sweat and his legs numb as if he had just wandered through the Ghost Gate.

As for Han Chaosheng’s embarrassed plight, Lin Yuan found it amusing inside. Zhao Hongyan’s timing was impeccable; however, it would have been even better if he had arrived a bit later, preferably just as Han Chaosheng was harassing Xiao Linshuang. To catch him red-handed then, Han Chaosheng would have never been able to recover for the rest of his life.

Perhaps it was the shock of Zhao Hongyan’s sudden appearance that sent Han Chaosheng scurrying away with his tail between his legs, looking sheepish. Lady Bai also appeared somewhat awkward. However, on seeing Lin Yuan, she became even more attentive, and even more cordial towards Han Huijuan.

The business on the opening day of Frost Pavilion was booming. Nearly three hundred boxes of Condensation Dew alone were sold, and the newly developed Snow skin cream was even more popular, selling out within a day. Xiao Linshuang quickly had the workers work overtime.

While business was thriving here, trouble had arisen at the Han mansion.

Han Chaosheng had come home that evening without incident, but when he woke up early the next morning and began to wash his face, he suddenly discovered that his right pinky finger had turned black!

He thought he must have accidentally gotten some ink on it last night, but no matter how much he washed, it wouldn’t come clean. Not only did it not come clean, but as soon as the finger came into contact with water, it visibly turned even blacker. In less than fifteen minutes, the entire pinky had turned pitch black.

Han Chaosheng was terrified. He frantically rubbed his finger, but when his left hand touched the blackened pinky, it too turned black!
