"Why do you always follow me? I don't seem to be familiar with you."
The man in black was also a little overwhelmed by this cat. Although he didn't know the origin of this cat, it was certain that this civet cat was domesticated.
At this moment, the man in black's cell phone suddenly rang, so the man opened the answer button:
"Hello? Uncle Li, um, I've arrived. Yes, I just arrived last night, so I found an inn to stay in the ancient city. Um, okay, I'll be back today."
After communicating with Uncle Li on the phone, the man in black returned to the room, changed his clothes, took out his room card, and went out to have breakfast.
In the ancient town of Jiangnan, the most indispensable thing is delicious food. Various delicacies from Tiannan floor are gathered here, and here there are many authentic local delicacies with Jiangnan City characteristics.
And this is also a place that attracts many foreign tourists.
In Jiangnan Ancient Town, you don’t even have to worry about what to eat for every meal? Because every meal you eat in Jiangnan Ancient Town is different, and you can eat it for a month.
The man in black seemed to be very familiar with this place. He quickly walked along the streets inside the ancient city. After passing through a passage with stilt buildings, he discovered one of the shops.
The man in black smiled, turned around and walked in.
"Boss, here are 10 pot stickers, and then a bowl of porridge."
"Okay, 10 pot stickers and a bowl of porridge, what kind of porridge do you want?" The fat boss lady turned around and asked.
"It's the same, soy milk and porridge," said the man in black.
"Okay, soy milk and porridge." The proprietress repeated the story, then turned to look at the man and asked:
"Sir, have you eaten in my restaurant before?"
"Of course." The man in black sat on one of the seats and said with a smile:
"When I was studying, I often came to your house to eat. After so many years, your house is still in the same place. It's easy to find."
"Oh, it turns out you've eaten here before. Why did you start talking about soy milk and rice porridge? But I don't seem to see you often, but I feel a little familiar."
"Haha." Hearing this, the man in black also smiled and said:
"I was studying nearby at that time. Our school was right behind the Confucian Temple."
"At that time, I was deeply impressed by your soy milk porridge, so I usually eat at your house."
"That's it." Listening to the man in black's story, the proprietress had already taken the dinner plate, put 10 pot stickers on the man's plate, and then brought it to the man.
Afterwards, the proprietress went to the pot again, filled the man with a large bowl of soy milk porridge, and said with a smile:
"Our family has been making pot stickers for so many years. We have tried to make something new for a few years, but we have always failed."
"Later, those old customers couldn't stand it anymore, so they gave me advice and asked me to keep making pot stickers and soy milk porridge. They said that this is what they like when they come to your house."
"If we change to other things, we won't be used to it."
"Isn't that right?" Seeing what the landlady said, the man in black also smiled and said, "Those people are right, you don't need to change anything at home, just make pot stickers and porridge."
"The reason why I came to your house is because the food you make is delicious. I'm really not used to eating other things, haha."
"Haha, it's rare that you still miss our pot stickers." Upon hearing this, the landlady felt pleased and asked out of curiosity:
"Then are you going home this time or..."
"Well, I have something to do at home, so I came back to take care of it. After graduating from college, I have been working in other places and was sent abroad for a few years."
"So, I rarely go home."
"Then you should go home more often. After all, it is home, and your parents are at home..."
"No." Before the lady boss finished speaking, the man in black interrupted her:
"I am the only one in my family."
"Ah?" When the proprietress heard what the man in black said, she was stunned for a moment, but she quickly realized something? She quickly apologized:
"I'm sorry, I didn't know you were the only one in your family?"
"Harm, nothing?" The man in black didn't seem to care.
But the landlady was a rough person, so she asked casually: "What about your parents?"
"When I was studying, I died in a car accident. So, since then, I have been alone. I have not been home for so many years and have been sent to work abroad. It is also because I am at home during the New Year and have nothing to miss."
"Then your relatives..."
"It's harmful!" After hearing the boss's question, the man in black also smiled and said, "It's okay not to mention those relatives."
"Okay, I understand." As if she had heard enough information from the man in black, the lady boss nodded silently and stopped talking.
Since the man in black came here to dine after noon, there were not many customers in the restaurant.
After a while, the man in black finished his meal, scanned the QR code to pay, and smiled at the landlady and said:
"Boss Boss, your pot stickers still taste the same as before. It's my favorite taste."
"Haha, if you like it, that's fine. If you like it, you can come here more often." The landlady also said with a smile.
"I will." The man in black smiled slightly, turned and left.
When the man in black walked back to the inn where he was staying, he found three strong men in suits and ties standing at the door.
The man just stood there stunned for a moment. One of the three men in suits and leather shoes spotted the man in black and quickly alerted the two around him.
So the three people looked at the man in black at the same time.
The three of them also looked at each other, and then took the initiative to walk up to the man in black.
"Master Zhuang." One of the men in suits shouted.
"Who are you?" The man in black didn't seem to recognize these people.
"It was Mr. Zhuang who asked us to come pick you up." Another man in a suit said.
"I'm not familiar with him." The man in black seemed a little unhappy.
But the other man in black smiled and said: "We are also under orders to do things, please don't embarrass us. Besides, Mr. Zhuang often mentions you."
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! "Bah!" Upon hearing what the man in the suit said, the man in black also baht and retorted directly:
"Don't play with me like a cat crying like a mouse and pretending to be compassionate. Let him get out of here with all his hypocrisy."
"Master Zhuang, I know that you are very prejudiced against this uncle, but after all, he and your father are somewhat related."
"He keeps asking you to return to China, but you..."
"Okay, don't tell me this." The man in black seemed a little impatient and retorted directly: "What do you want now?"
"We will take you home." One of the tall, thin men in suits said.
"Now?" the man in black asked.
"Yes, right now." The man in the suit said.
The man in black sighed softly and said, "My things are still at the inn."
"We'll go get it with you," said the tall, thin man in a suit.
Feeling trapped by this group of people, the man in black seemed very helpless, but he could only go back to the inn to pick up his luggage.
"Meow! Ding-ding-ding-ding-ding!"
Just after the man in black opened the room with the meal card, the kitten with the bell appeared in front of the man in black again and began to rub the man in black's trouser legs.
The man in black was also made dumbfounded by this little guy, and he couldn't help but complain:
"I said, little cat, you are not the cat of this inn, why do you keep running here? Why on earth do you always pester me? What good does pestering me do to you?"
The man in black here also kept complaining about the cat at his feet, while the three men in suits standing at the door also whispered to each other:
"What is he talking about?"
"Talk about the cat."
"What does the cat have to say? I feel like he is insinuating about us?"
"Could it be that you're overthinking it?"
"Is it possible? After all these years, there will always be some complaints, but it has nothing to do with us."
"That's right."
…
The three men in suits were still talking and complaining to each other, but the man in black had already packed his luggage and walked out directly with the suitcase.
A man in a suit wanted to reach out to help carry the luggage, but the man in black pushed him away with his hand: "Sorry, I don't need your help."
"Okay." After his hand was pushed away, the man in the suit was not angry. He seemed to have been used to the man in black's style for a long time.
The four of them walked out of the inn together.
Not long after, we arrived at the parking lot outside the ancient city.
A Mercedes-Benz commercial vehicle is parked here at the moment.
Three men in suits quickly got into the car.
The man in black hesitated for a moment, but finally chose to follow.
The moment the electric door closed automatically, the Mercedes-Benz commercial vehicle started directly and left the parking lot.
…
…
The vehicle drove on the roads of Jiangnan City for nearly an hour before slowly entering the entrance of a forest.
After the vehicle stopped briefly at the entrance of the forest, it continued to drive forward and entered the hinterland of the forest.
After another 18 minutes of journey, the vehicle finally stopped at the entrance of a villa halfway up the mountain.
The electric door of the vehicle opened automatically, the man in black jumped out of the car, and the iron door at the door also opened automatically.
The man in black looked at everything in front of him with mixed feelings in his heart. He sighed lightly and walked directly in.
At this moment, the three men in suits sitting in the car also looked at each other.
One of the men in a suit asked: "Why don't you take his luggage out of the car?"
"Maybe he didn't want to look too embarrassed at the door. After all, he was so proud back then."
"Haha, times have changed and people have to look forward."
…
The three men in suits were also teasing each other in the car. It seemed that the past of the man in black was what everyone was talking about.
On the other side, after entering the villa, the man in black walked directly towards the villa building.
Take the elevator on the first floor to the third floor. The moment you step out of the elevator, you go directly to one of the doors.
Pushing open the door, it is the large balcony of the villa.
Standing here, you can see the beautiful scenery below the mountain.
At this moment, on one side of the balcony, a middle-aged man with meticulously combed hair was standing there, watering the bonsai flowers.
After hearing the movement behind him, the middle-aged man watering the flowers did not turn around. Instead, while watering the flowers, he asked: "You're back?"
"You are so elegant. A person who has done many evil things actually still has the heart to grow flowers and plants here. Can you calm down?"
"Haha." After hearing what the man in black said, the middle-aged man put down the flower pot in his hand, walked directly in front of the man in black, and patted the man in black's shoulder heavily with his hand.
Then, he passed directly by the man in black and sat at the coffee table on one side.
He was minding his own business and making tea for himself.
However, the middle-aged man only poured himself tea and seemed not to entertain the man in black at all.
The man in black turned back again, came to the middle-aged man, and said with a smile:
"What kind of trick are you trying to pull?"
"Playing tricks? To you? Haha, Zhuang Tianhe, you overestimate yourself. I picked you up today just to get you to hand over what you have in your hands."
"If you hand it over now, I can give you a few million more so that you can eat and drink without worries."
"How many millions? Haha, Zhuang Hu, you snatched so many things from my father, and you want to spend a few million to send me away?"
"Haha." Faced with Zhuang Tianhe's tough attitude, Zhuang Hu just smiled coldly and said calmly:
"Zhuang Tianhe, what age are you in? You still say that some of these things are not available. The shopping mall is like a battlefield. The winner is the king and the loser is the enemy."
"You have been working for several years, especially after staying abroad for several years. You should know this truth best. Why are you still acting like a child and getting emotional?"
"Zhuang Hu, what do you mean?" Faced with Zhuang Hu's various sarcasm, Zhuang Tianhe also took a step forward and said angrily.
But Zhuang Hu elegantly lit a cigar and said calmly: "I don't mean anything, I just want to tell you that it is not a good thing to keep that thing by your side."
"For you, that thing is of little use, but for me, it is somewhat useful."
"Especially now that you heard that the economic situation is not very good, isn't that just right? You hand over your things and then take millions from me."
"A few million is a very high number for people like you. You have to think clearly."
"Haha, I miss your sister, Zhuang Hu, you are just rubbish. In my eyes, you are just rubbish if you don't say anything."
"Hey, look, you're in a hurry?" Seeing Zhuang Tianhe getting angry, Zhuang Hu looked calm.
It seemed that the angrier Zhuang Tianhe became, the more excited Zhuang Hu became.
Faced with this situation, Zhuang Hu also waved his hand and said:
"Two million, you give me the things. This two million can be your current primitive accumulation."
After finishing his words, Zhuang Hu narrowed his eyes and continued: "Two million is really a lot for you."
"If I were you, I would agree right away. This is the wisest choice. I hope you don't play tricks."
"There are times. Between temper and bread, you don't have to give up bread."
"Bread is the gap you cannot cross. It is the confidence for you to make a comeback. You have to figure out how to do it."
