Little Taotie was in deep thought, completely ignoring what he was saying, treating his lies as nothing more than idle talk.
She was pondering what benefits Chef Wu could gain from the restaurant closing down.
The light in Little Taotie's eyes gradually shifted from confusion to clarity.
If Chef Wu wasn't bribed by a competitor, then he did this for his own gain, with the aim to bring down "Tangshi Xuan."
Once "Tangshi Xuan" shuts down, he can receive severance pay.
The longer he works, the more severance pay he can get.
Perhaps, it's quite a substantial amount.
Little Taotie raised her eyes, fixing them intently on Chef Wu with an overly clear gaze.
The gaze was so piercing that it seemed to see through all secrets, making Chef Wu uncomfortable enough to close his mouth, unable to utter another word.
Indeed, when lies are told too many times, even the liar starts to believe them; he had almost deluded himself into thinking he was wronged.
