This was something Zhao Yan had not expected. In his view, the Yang Clan was already a family of prominent standing. How had they fallen into the same predicament as him when it came to purchasing ice? It made sense for someone like him without status or connections, but the Yangs lacked neither money nor power. Where exactly did the problem lie?
"Brother Yang, why is this happening? I recall that Ruyi Tower never lacks ice. Why is there none to be had in your estate?" Zhao Yan asked, puzzled. Ruyi Tower had spent quite some time in the limelight in the Capital specifically for its use of ice; many people would grit their teeth and go there to dine just for the chance to enjoy it. Even though Zhao Yan hadn’t been to Ruyi Tower lately, he had heard as much.
The current Master behind Ruyi Tower was Yang Yizhi. Zhao Yan didn't think Yang Yizhi would treat Nan Zhirou poorly just to prioritize the shop's business. Yang Yizhi had clearly become a man obsessed with romance; he used to be cold and indifferent to people, but now it was as if a single day apart felt like three autumns. Occasionally, he would even flaunt his affection right in front of Zhao Yan.
