Chen Erniu continued, "Actually, when Han Qingyang first walked in, I could tell that his liver was consistently overactive. Plus, when he tried the dish, he had no reaction whatsoever to our cucumbers. That's why I concluded that he must be experiencing a loss of taste."
Hearing Chen Erniu's explanation, both women were astounded.
They hadn't expected that medical skills could be used to handle a troublesome business competitor.
If Han Qingyang had not lost his sense of taste, even if he admitted the cucumbers were delicious after trying them, he could have found other ways to compete with Xu Xiuxiu.
But it just so happened that Xu Xiuxiu had cured his taste loss with a bowl of seasoning soup, effectively earning his gratitude.
If Han Qingyang continued to compete with Xu Xiuxiu, he would be labeled as ungrateful and disloyal.
That was why, as soon as Chen Erniu realized Han Qingyang had lost his sense of taste, he stopped Xu Xiuxiu from arguing with him further.
