It wasn't until 12 noon that Lai Wen finally woke up, but his mental state was still not good after getting up.
People with poor health just can't bear the torment. This torment made Lai Wen's body resistance significantly reduced, making him look sick.
Although Lai Wen was not feeling well, he still had to eat lunch. He couldn't use the rice noodles in the morning to cleanse Xu Yun. He had to do it in a serious way to show how much he valued Xu Yun.
Hunan cuisine, one of the eight major Chinese cuisines with a long history, was already formed in the Han Dynasty.
Today's dinner table is quite rich. Normally Lai Wen would not cook so many dishes. Although he is very wasteful, he will not waste it on this aspect.
Zuan tofu and Zuan shark fin are both representatives of official dishes.
Then there are Dong'an chicken, goldfish playing with lotus, hundreds of birds paying homage to the phoenix, steamed cured meat, Ningxiang flavored snake, minced pepper fish head, crispy duck with sesame seeds, etc.
A sumptuous banquet is indispensable without good wine. After three or five glasses of wine, Lai Wen will talk more.
"After dinner later, I will take you to visit my collection!" Lai Wen said: "I'm not bragging, I don't dare to say this in Yanjing, but in Huxiang, I dare to say that this
The things in the hands of all the collectors in the entire region are not as good as mine!"
Xu Yundao: "Then I really can't wait."
"Then let's drink first. It's still early. You will live here from now on. You can see it whenever you want. What's mine is yours!" Lai Wen's words were really loud.
At this time, a subordinate in black walked up to Lai Wen, possessed him in Lai Wen's ear, and whispered: "Boss, that man heard that you were back and started making trouble again and refused to eat."
"What the hell else can you do!?" Lai Wen glared in displeasure and said, "You can't handle anything bad! Is it so difficult to deal with a girl? How long has this been going on! And there's still no fucking progress at all.
.”
"Boss...it's not that we don't think of a way, it's just that she really won't take the hard way." The subordinates were a little helpless.
Xu Yun heard everything, and he had obviously guessed what Lai Wen and the others were talking about.
However, as an "outsider", Xu Yun pretended not to be interested at all and continued to eat the crispy duck with sesame seeds that he thought was the best.
"If she refuses to eat, starve her!" Lai Wen said angrily: "Don't you see that I don't have time to greet her today! You starve her for me! I want to see how long she can hold on!"
The men in black nodded and left.
Lai Wen's mood was greatly reduced.
"What a disappointment!" Lai Wen drank a glass of wine unhappily and became depressed.
"Boss Lai, if there is anything I can help you with, just ask." Xu Yundao said, "I'm here to help you, not as a guest."
"It's nothing, just trivial things." Lai Wen waved his hand.
Xu Yun realized that although Lai Wen said he sounded nice, he actually still didn't trust him 100%.
Since Lai Wen was unwilling to tell him these things, Xu Yun stopped asking further questions and continued to eat his food.
He must be patient. Sooner or later, Lai Wen will be unable to hold it in anymore, and then he will definitely say everything that should be said and should not be said.
Halfway through the meal, Lai Wen lost his appetite and became less talkative.
Xu Yun remained silent for the next time. He knew that Lai Wen had something on his mind right now, and there was no point in interrupting him by speaking.
Instead, let Lai Wen think about it carefully, and maybe he can set up a trap for himself to get in.
Lunch was almost over, and Lai Wen slowly came back to his senses.
Xu Yun then spoke calmly: "There is an old saying that is to get people's money and eliminate disasters with them. Boss Lai, seeing you frowning, I really feel a little sorry. Although I may not be able to solve some things, I
If I don’t try my best, I will feel short-changed.”
"It would be great if everyone could think like you." A smile finally appeared on Lai Wen's face.
Xu Yun continued: "Boss Lai should also take some things lightly. I believe that the people you use must be loyal, but they have different abilities and may not be suitable for what he is doing now."
Lai Wen was startled and seemed to recognize Xu Yun's voiceover.
"You mean..." Lai Wen frowned: "I should try different methods?"
"Ah?" Xu Yun was startled and shook his head: "I don't know what kind of trouble Boss Lai has encountered, so it's really hard to say."
Lai Wen nodded: "I don't need to hide it from you, but there are some things I don't want to tell you because of your personality."
Xu Yun said nothing and waited quietly until Lai Wen continued.
"When you were in Africa, you didn't like to do things that you refused." Lai Wen said: "Here, I have something that may make you feel disgusted and disgusted."
Hearing what Lai Wen said, Xu Yun was confused.
"I imprisoned a person." Lai Wen said.
Xu Yun suddenly realized that this guy really dared to say whatever he thought: "Boss Lai, I am indeed a person who respects human rights... So, you'd better stop talking. There are some things I won't do. I have
The bottom line for how I behave and do things."
Lai Wen sighed: "I knew you would say that, so I didn't tell you the matter from the beginning."
Xu Yun shook his head: "Sometimes, Boss Lai's actions may be too disrespectful of the law."
"Don't you want to ask why I imprison this person?" Lai Wen said.
Xu Yun said bluntly: "No matter what the reason is, I don't think you have the right to restrict a person's freedom... After all, this is China, a society ruled by law, and many things are resolved by law."
"That's all, I knew you would say that." Lai Wen said, "But I have my own reasons for doing this, because this man came to my house to steal things and I caught him."
Xu Yun smiled and said nothing.
"More importantly, this person still has clues about what I want...so I can't let her go," Lai Wen said.
Xu Yun was now 100% sure that Xia Qiuyu was in this villa.
"What does Boss Lai mean?" Xu Yun asked tentatively.
"If she tells me the clues I want to know, then I will let her go." Lai Wen said: "This is the condition I gave her, but she didn't agree. She is such a stubborn girl."
"Still a girl?" Xu Yun pretended to be surprised.
Lai Wen nodded: "Yes, I'm afraid you won't believe it... I'm so tightly guarded here, she can actually sneak in."
"It doesn't matter if you come in, you can still escape." Xu Yun smiled: "Boss Lai's things are not damaged. I'm curious about what makes a girl so bold."
Lai Wen frowned: "This thing is really addictive... If it is this girl's father who comes, I'm afraid I really can't save it."
Xu Yun was startled for a moment, then asked knowingly: "Who is he, with such great ability?"
"God..." Lai heard the words but stopped again: "Well, there is no point in saying more, after all, this person seems to be gone."
