Hearing Li Fugui's words, Chu Lian was extremely embarrassed; it must be that Li Fugui had only heard about the change of ownership at Dongfeng Restaurant and assumed he had successfully taken it over.
"Li Fugui, I need to tell you something, and I don't want you to get excited," Chu Lian said.
"What is it?" Li Fugui asked, puzzled.
"I wasn't able to help you take back Dongfeng Restaurant," Chu Lian confessed, as this was something Li Fugui was bound to find out sooner or later.
Li Fugui's eyes widened in shock at these words, "What? What exactly happened? It's all over town that Dongfeng Restaurant has changed hands."
Chu Lian had no choice but to tell the truth, "Indeed, the ownership has changed, but it wasn't me who bought it. By the time our people got there to purchase Dongfeng Restaurant, it had already been bought by someone else. It's my fault for not acting sooner without bargaining."
