Cultivation Pet Shop

Chapter 843 Wife

When the beast carriage arrived at the store, even Lin Fan was surprised by the building, let alone the kids.

If this building had been placed in Lin Fan's previous world, it wouldn't have just been considered a store. Rather this was already big enough to be considered a mall!

It seemed like the Dongfang Family really had gone all out for him, which caused Lin Fan to knit his brows.

When Dongfang Ming saw the look on Lin Fan's face, he thought that he was dissatisfied with something, so he asked, "If this is still too small, we can buy the surrounding buildings and make it bigger."

Lin Fan looked at Dongfang Ming with three black lines on his forehead and he couldn't respond right away.

Buy the surrounding buildings and make it bigger?

This really was the finances and influence of a noble family, they could do anything they wanted in a second grade business street like this.

In the end, Lin Fan said, "No need, no need, this place is more than big enough."

Dongfang Ming was surprised when he heard this because as far as he knew, this place was actually quite small compared to the usual stores that they bought. This was already the biggest place on this business street, so it wasn't as if they could have bought anything bigger, but it was small compared to their businesses.

Still, since Lin fan said that it was enough, he wouldn't question it.

After Lin Fan entered the store, he was surprised to see the layout of the store itself. It had already been fully furnished and all he needed to do was find some people to man the counters and stock the shelves before being able to open the store.

But when he saw this, he also couldn't help revealing a bitter smile.

That was because he thought that it was such a waste of a perfectly decorated store like this.

The pet store that Lin Fan opened were anything but normal stores, so this place wouldn't look like this for long.

After he had stepped in, the system had already told him that it had found a suitable place for the store and it was asking him if he wanted it to decorate the store.

Of course, Lin Fan couldn't do that with all these witnesses beside him, so he rejected this request from the system.

But that didn't mean that he wouldn't let the system handle it later when everyone was gone.

The store didn't just have a single storefront, there was also an employee dorm and many different facilities that were located in the back. Lin Fan was quite impressed by how thoughtful the Dongfang Family was when they picked out this store for him.

Since they had spent so long rescuing the girls from the loan sharks, by the time that they had finished going through the store, it was already lunch time.

It was actually the growls of the stomach from the girls that had reminded them that they still hadn't eaten yet.

Lin Fan realized his mistake after hearing this.

These girls had been held captive for who knows how long, it would be strange if they weren't hungry.

But since he didn't know the area, he left the matter of finding a restaurant to Dongfang Ming.

The next problem that came was when they entered the restaurant.

Since this was a restaurant on the second grade business street, it was quite a high end place. Orphans like Xiao Tu and his little sisters would never have a chance to come to a place like this, so naturally they didn't have clothes that were suited for coming here.

So as soon as they came in, the waiter looked at the kids with disdain before saying to Lin Fan, "Sir, please ask your servants to wait outside. This isn't a place for them to step foot in."

Xiao Tu and the five girls all revealed red looks on their faces when they heard this.

They naturally knew that they didn't belong in this place, but they had forgotten in their excitement of being brought to this place by Lin Fan. It had been their first time riding in that horse carriage, going to this kind of place, and seeing this kind of scenery, so they had forgotten about everything.

But now they were reminded of their position by this one sentence from the waiter.

Lin Fan knitted his brows when he heard this, but before he could say anything, it was Dongfang Ming who came forward.

The waiter was surprised and couldn't help taking a step back when he saw Dongfang Ming step forward, but he stopped himself as he asked, "Sir, is there a problem?"

Dongfang Ming narrowed his eyes and said, "I want to speak to your manager."

The waiter narrowed his eyes as well, but before he could say anything, there was someone that came up behind him.

It was a well dressed man who clearly looked like he wasn't a normal person.

When the waiter saw him, he immediately went to bow, but the well dressed man raised his hand to stop him. Then he looked at Dongfang Ming and said, "Sir, I am the manager here, is there a problem?"

Dongfang Ming gave a cold snort and said, "Are you the one who came up with that discriminatory policy?"

The manager narrowed his eyes to look at Dongfang Ming as he said, "Discriminatory? We run our restaurant to the highest standards and that is the standard that should also be expected of our customers. If they can't even show the most basic…"

The rest of his words were stuck in his throat as he saw the token that Dongfang Ming raised.

This was a token that almost everyone recognized because it represented a family that no one could offend…

After being stunned for a bit, the manager immediately bowed ninety degrees and said, "My lord, I'm sorry for not recognizing you! I will immediately have a table set up for you and I'll punish this idiot immediately!"

Dongfang Ming gave another cold snort and said, "No need! Just know who you've offended today!"

He turned and said to Lin Fan and the rest, "Come, let's go to another place."

Lin Fan couldn't help raising a brow as he looked at Dongfang Ming, but he still followed him while leading the kids out.

The manager was just left there with a shocked and ugly look on his face before he turned to the waiter and started beating him.

What Lin Fan didn't know was that Dongfang Ming was someone who actually loved children. While he had been cold about saving them earlier, that was because he had to do that considering his position.

But now that they had been saved and Lin Fan was taking care of them, there was no reason why he also couldn't take care of them.

It didn't take them long before they found another restaurant and this time, they were shown a table right away.

It seemed like the news about Dongfang Ming had traveled quickly and no one dared to offend this person.

After they finished their meal, Lin Fan brought them back to the store where they were all stunned again.

That was because during their meal, the inside of the store had completely changed.

Right before they left, Lin Fan had the system start with the renovations, so naturally the store had changed when they returned.

As the kids ran off to explore this new store, Dongfang Ming couldn't help looking at Lin Fan with a strange look. As far as he knew, Lin Fan shouldn't have known anyone in the city that could do this kind of thing…So how had he renovated this store so quickly?

But since Lin Fan wasn't saying anything about it, he really couldn't ask since he had to respect Lin Fan's privacy.

So the only thing that he could do was stare at Lin Fan with a strange look which made Lin Fan feel strange.

Luckily Lin Fan was saved when the door of the store suddenly opened and a beautiful woman came in.

Lin Fan was surprised by the appearance of this beautiful woman, but then he said, "I'm sorry, our store isn't open yet. If you come back in a few days, we'll be glad to help you."

But the beautiful woman didn't leave after hearing this. Rather she walked up to Dongfang Ming and stood beside him.

Lin Fan looked at Dongfang Ming with a strange look for a bit before Dongfang Ming explained, "This is my wife, I asked her to come here to help with the kids."

Lin Fan couldn't help revealing a shocked look as he said, "Wife? This is your wife? You're married?"

Dongfang Ming and his wife both revealed strange looks as they looked at Lin Fan. Then Dongfang Ming asked, "Is it that strange that I have a wife?"

Lin Fan just said with an awkward look, "You're married at such a young age, isn't it awkward?"

Dongfang Ming revealed a confused look at first before suddenly revealing a look of understanding and asking, "How old do you think I am?"

Lin Fan answered, "Aren't you in your early twenties?"

Dongfang Ming laughed and said, "I'm already close to two hundred years old, how could I still be that young?"

"Eh?!" That was Lin Fan's only response.

Based on Dongfang Ming's appearance, he had thought that he was at most twenty years old, but he never expected this…

But after thinking about it, he realized that he had made a mistake.

He had always been hanging out with young people and he always thought that they were the same as him if they looked to be around the same age. However, when one's cultivation became higher, they would look younger even if they lived for much longer than a normal person would.

There were many people who looked to be in their twenties even though they had lived for hundreds of years all because of their high cultivation.

Lin Fan couldn't help looking at Dongfang Ming's wife and wondering how old she was. However, he was smart enough to not ask her this question since he could see the dangerous gleam in her eyes when she saw him looking at her.

In his previous world, there was a saying about not asking a woman her weight or her age. It seemed like this was still the case in this world.

After introductions were done, Dongfang Ming's wife brought the five girls and Xin'er up to the employee dorms to wash up.

As for Xiao Tu, he was just thrown into a bath all by himself since he was old enough to take care of himself.

When they finally came back down after their baths, Lin Fan and Dongfang Ming both couldn't help being surprised.
