Ling Zhenfei looked at the follow-up line and was taken aback. He said to Cao Qinglin, "President Cao, I'm a bit confused about this clause too. The contract says that Lightning Logistics will support Mr. Ling's Xi Shan Restaurant's development at a super low rate as a friendly gesture."

Cao Qinglin laughed and said, "What's up? After seeing this, doesn't Mr. Ling want to thank me? This clause is for your benefit. We've offered Xi Shan Manor's vegetables the lowest logistics price through Lightning Logistics."

Ling Zhenfei nodded and said, "I really must thank Mr. Cao, but why isn't the duration specified? Is this low logistics price from Lightning Logistics indefinite, or is it time-bound?"

Cao Qinglin was taken aback again and angrily said to the assistant nearby, "What's going on here? Why is the work so careless? Didn't I tell you, Mr. Ling is not an outsider but my partner. Of course, the logistics fee should be the lowest."

"Yes, Chairman Cao, I'll modify it right away," the assistant said helplessly, looking quite aggrieved.

Ling Zhenfei understood in his heart that this must be arranged by Cao Qinglin. Luckily, given his personality, he wouldn't have looked closely at such matters in contracts before. This time, he had no choice and happened to catch it.

This incident happened at the right time for Ling Zhenfei to carefully review the contract, only to discover that the contract was full of pitfalls. If he hadn't looked closely, he would have really fallen into the trap.

Last night, Ling Zhenfei had an extensive discussion with Li Ru about some of the contract details, which enabled him to pinpoint the contract's serious flaws, issues that could be severely problematic in the future.

Initially, Ling Zhenfei harbored a bit of idealism about Cao Qinglin, believing he wouldn't stoop to such actions, but the bizarre contract before him forced him to believe otherwise.

Suddenly, Ling Zhenfei felt a sense of loss, questioning where trust between people really lies.

Though Capital City is filled with wealthy people, it's precisely because of this reason that everyone is obsessed with money, demanding profits no matter what and putting personal interests above all.

While it's true that every place has its share of good and evil people, Binyang Village's residents seem considerably kinder in comparison.

Ling Zhenfei found more than a dozen flaws in the contract, which Cao Qinglin had people rectify one by one.

Ling Zhenfei knew there were likely still loopholes in the contract, but he was not skilled in these matters, especially those involving legal issues, so he wasn't very clear.

After having the contract amended, Ling Zhenfei finally felt a bit more at ease. No matter what, at least the major gaps were closed. Even if Cao Qinglin caused trouble later, it wouldn't be that easy.

By this time, it was already late, and Cao Qinglin invited Ling Zhenfei to dinner. Ling Zhenfei didn't refuse, as he could eat anywhere anyway.

What surprised Ling Zhenfei was that Cao Qinglin invited him to eat vegetables from Xi Shan Manor, suggesting that Cao Family Members would be enjoying Xi Shan Manor's produce regularly from now on.

During dinner, Cao Xueyi did not return, but Xu Yuyu came to dine instead. It was visibly apparent that Xu Yuyu's status had elevated, clearly showing she had a different standing in the eyes of the Cao Family Members.

Ling Zhenfei was very pleased, suggesting that his trip these days had not been in vain.

"Honey, today I thought of a nickname for our child," Xu Yuyu suddenly said to Cao Qinglin during dinner.

Cao Qinglin, somewhat surprised, asked, "Oh, what's the nickname? Let me hear it."

Xu Yuyu glanced at Ling Zhenfei and said, "This is our first child, and I want to name him Yi Yi. What do you think?"

Cao Qinglin frowned and said, "Yi Yi, why does this name sound so strange?"

While speaking, Cao Qinglin glanced at Ling Zhenfei and said, "Mr. Ling, what do you think of the name Yi Yi?"

Ling Zhenfei nodded and said, "The name is very good—catchy, not tacky, easy to call, and easy to remember. It's a good name."

Cao Qinglin laughed and said, "Great, since Mr. Ling says it's a good name, Yi Yi it is."

From this point on, all Cao Family Members knew that the future little brother of the Cao Family would be named Yi Yi.

"Divine Doctor Ling, last time you cleansed the impurities from my body, does that mean there are none left now?" Xu Yuyu said to Ling Zhenfei, winking as she spoke.

Ling Zhenfei surely understood what Xu Yuyu meant; this woman was probably up to something again.

"The impurities in the body should be mostly cleared. I'm leaving Capital City tomorrow, so tonight I'll cleanse you once more to ensure it's complete."

Xu Yuyu feigned surprise and said, "Really? But last time Mr. Ling, you cleansed my body's impurities, it took so much Northern Spiritual Energy. I feel bad imposing on you like this."

Ling Zhenfei smiled and said, "Miss Xu, don't be so polite. Have you forgotten that I am now the godfather of the child in your belly? Isn't it my duty to do something for him?"

Ling Zhenfei turned to Cao Qinglin and said, "Don't you think so, Mr. Cao?"

Cao Qinglin chuckled and said, "Indeed, Yuyu, Mr. Ling is not an outsider but Yi Yi's godfather, so of course, he would want our child's health to be better."

Xu Yuyu pretended to be a bit hesitant and said, "Alright then, let's do it that way. Thank you so much, Mr. Ling."

After dinner, Ling Zhenfei returned to his room to rest, which was right next to Xu Yuyu's room.

First, he called Zhou Tong. Even though it was late, Zhou Tong answered the phone quickly.

"Hello, boss, why are you calling me so late? Do you have any instructions?"

Ling Zhenfei asked, "Where are you right now?"

Zhou Tong said, "I'm in Modu right now, working on design drafts for a restaurant in Modu."

Ling Zhenfei knew that Zhou Tong was surely working overtime and said, "You've got your hands full then. By the way, how's the design coming along?"

Zhou Tong laughed and said, "It's going well. With the experience from Binyang Restaurant's renovation, my current drafts are more mature, and I'm using the same style, only needing to adapt it to different places."

Ling Zhenfei said, "That's great. Once the restaurant in Modu is designed, you can leave the follow-up work to Jiang Hui. Then you'll need to come to Capital City. I have another restaurant here that needs renovating."

Zhou Tong was very surprised, "No way, boss, you're amazing. How many branches are we planning to open for Xi Shan Restaurant?"

Ling Zhenfei laughed and said, "Don't worry, you'll definitely have plenty to do. After the work in Capital City, you'll head to the Provincial City, where we also have a restaurant needing renovation."

Zhou Yong felt immense pressure, "Boss, are you trying to work me to death? I haven't had a proper rest in days."
