Half a year later, things unfolded precisely as He Wenjie had anticipated. Because Cai Xiaoli had been constantly running back and forth reselling treasury bonds, she simply had no time to spare for managing the restaurants. Freed from his sister's discipline, her younger brother grew increasingly unbridled on the premises. Before long, his reckless management plunged both restaurants into the red. By the time Cai Xiaoli discovered the mess, her brother had already transferred ownership of both establishments to others. To make matters even more infuriating, he had even leaked He Wenjie's secret braised pork recipe.
Upon learning of this, Cai Xiaoli was so furious she almost passed out. However, having made roughly three million over the past six months, and knowing how much He Wenjie valued his braised pork recipe, she hoped to buy back the two restaurants out of her own pocket before He Wenjie found out about the incident.
