We're working together, sure, but let's be upfront about the ugly stuff. Don't just act like everything's fine right now, then when Xiyuan gets bigger and everyone's appetite grows, you start pushing her for the vegetable supply channels.
Even if there was one... she wouldn't tell, and especially since this channel really can't be disclosed, so we have to reach an agreement about this first.
If we can't agree on this, then there's no point in talking further.
What surprised Pei Ziyu is that Fan Tianyu still doesn't know where the vegetables are sourced from—he knows Mei Mengzhen is in charge of it for Xiyuan, but never asked for details, since it's not his business and it'd be weird to pry. But Tianyu just blindly partners with Mengzhen without knowing anything; you can't tell if he's brave or just foolish.
