Chapter 19 The Best Food in the World

"Brother Haotian, are you okay?"

Under the silver moonlight, Mu Li saw Ji Haotian's gloomy face and pinched the corner of his clothes with some anxiety. She knew that when talking about the past of the Ji family, Ji Haotian must be heartbroken, but it was related to Ji Susu, and she had to say it.

"I'm fine. I've been tortured by hatred for ten years and I've been used to it."

Ji Haotian clenched his fists, suppressing the anger and secret wounds in his heart, and became a bit disordered inner breath:

"What else?"

"After my father saw Brother Haochen, he took him down the mountain and prepared to ask a famous doctor for treatment, but Brother Haochen still failed this and died on the way down the mountain. Later, my father inquired from many sources and found out that on the day the Ji family was destroyed, several servants in the mansion desperately snatched out the seriously injured Brother Haochen and handed him over to the wet nurse Li Jinxiu, and asked her to escort Brother Haochen to escape. In order to protect her from taking Brother Haochen away, many people lost their lives because of this.

After Li Jinxiu took Brother Haochen out of the back door of the mansion, Tian Yuanzheng shouted, saying that no matter who it was, as long as he could kill the relatives of the Ji family, he would enjoy endless wealth and glory. At that time, Li Jinxiu was obsessed with the heart of a short knife that he had originally used to defend himself into Brother Haochen's back."

"Crack!"

Ji Haotian clenched his fists, his joints made dull sounds, and his eyes turned extremely red.

Although Li Jinxiu is a wet nurse, she has grown up with the three brothers and sisters of the Ji family since she was a child, so the relationship between the master and servant is very weak. The three brothers and sisters, who are pure by nature, regard her as their biological mother. Unexpectedly, Li Jinxiu revenges and becomes the murderer of the brother.

"Huhh!"

Ji Haotian gasped and adjusted his anger, and turned his attention to Mu Li again:

"Do you know where this Li Jinxiu is now?"

"She is still in Yunzhou."

Ji Susu paused:

"When Li Jinxiu was successful in assassinating Brother Ji Haochen, her status in front of Tian Yuanzheng was even higher than Han Yuande. However, there were very few people who knew about her assassinating Brother Haochen, so few people knew why she started her career.

Now Li Jinxiu is the head of Jinxiu Group and is engaged in some international bulk businesses. Over the past ten years, Li Jinxiu's status has been rising steadily and is now known as Xiaoqijia in Yunzhou.

This means that in addition to its lack of foundation and history, Jinxiu Group's strength in other aspects is already comparable to that of the Six Valves. Although it is a bit exaggerated, her strength is indeed good."

"Jinxiu Group?"

Ji Haotian said something and deeply imprinted the name in his heart.

...

After the memorial service, leave the cemetery.

Mu Li looked at the pain between Ji Haotian's eyebrows and spoke softly to divert his attention:

"Brother Haotian, for my business, you didn't eat at the banquet, otherwise I'll treat you to a meal."

"I'll just treat you, Bi'an, prepare the car!"

"yes!"

Zhao Bi'an nodded slightly and walked quickly towards the parking lot, while Wen Keren followed Ji Haotian slowly, always maintaining a distance of half a meter.

After a moment, Zhao Bi'an was already driving a Hummer and stopped in front of the three of them, got out of the car and opened the car door.

Mu Li bent down and sat in the car:

"Brother Haotian, I know there is a French restaurant in the city that cooks well, or we..."

"Bi'an, go to the Tibetan Lane by the river."

Ji Haotian interrupted Mu Li and smiled at her:

"I'll take you to eat the best things in the world!"

"good!"

The aura that Ji Haotian exuded in every move made Mu Li obey his arrangements without realizing it.

There is a river in the center of Yunzhou, called Xunlong Canal, which just divides Yunzhou into two, divided into Jiangnan and Jiangbei.

The Tibetan Long Lane mentioned by Ji Haotian is a shanty town on the edge of the city. Although the name sounds grand, its actual meaning is that even the Xunlong Canal bypasses this place where dirt is hidden and dirt is to hide from afar.

When Ji Haotian and his party arrived at Zanglong Lane, although it was already past ten o'clock, there were still people coming and going near the shanty town. After all, there were many people in this place who made a living by relying on the dark night.

"We want to have a meal here?"

Mu Li is from a chaebol family. Although the Mu family group is so down, her life is still a wealthy family compared to that of ordinary people. In Mu Li's life, except for passing here a few times during business trips, such slums were completely inseparable from her during the rest of the time. If she hadn't stood at the entrance of the alley in person and looked carefully, Mu Li would not even believe that the prosperous Yunzhou was as strong as such a dilapidated neighborhood, which was even worse than Ping'an Town.

“Yes, it’s here.”

Ji Haotian nodded slightly, as if he was very friendly to the shabby alley in front of him, and walked towards a dark alley nearby.

Compared with the rich and ecstatic urban area of ​​Yunzhou, the alley that Ji Haotian went to seemed to be two different worlds from the bustling city outside. The courtyard walls of every household were piled with honeycomb coal and chopped firewood. The ground became a little muddy after the snow melted. The messy wires were hanging crisscrossed overhead. The street lights on both sides gradually dimmed because of their disrepair.

"Brother Haotian, what place can I eat in such a shabby alley? Or I'll treat you."

When Mu Li saw the place where everyone was going, he became more convinced that Ji Haotian was just a paper tiger who was strong outside and was doing it. He brought him to such a place for dinner because he was short of money. From this point of view, it was probably the Hummer outside should have been rented.

Ji Haotian smiled faintly, without explanation, turned around a corner, and there was still a dim light in front of a small shop in the distance.

"call!"

Seeing the shop with lights on in the distance, Ji Haotian felt a sense of slackness in his heart.

Ten years are like a dream.

I dreamed back late at night, and the old place was still there.

Hearing Ji Haotian's relieved voice, Wen Keren and Zhao Bian glanced at Ji Haotian. They were all servants who had followed Ji Haotian for many years.

The master in their eyes has always been a cold-blooded and ruthless killer and decisive person. He is withdrawn and indifferent. He rarely gets influenced by anything, and he has never felt compassion for anyone. Especially the tenderness that is revealed at this moment, which is even more rare.

Soon, everyone had already walked into the small shop.

This small shop is a small restaurant converted into a street-facing house. The house is full of plans and can only place five small tables. The things sold inside are also very single, with only sesame cakes and mutton soup. Perhaps because of the low price here, the business is pretty good and there are already people.

Looking at the unchanging decorations, Ji Haotian felt warm in his heart and was always thinking about what to say when old friends met.

After entering the door, Ji Haotian, Mu Li, Zhao Bi'an and Wen Keren sat next to a small table near the door.

After Ji Haotian sat down, Mu Li naturally sat beside him. Seeing this, Wen Keren's body stagnated.

She has served the young master for five years and has also been in love with the young master for five years. However, in the highly hierarchical Jiuzhou Pavilion, she has always performed her duties conscientiously. She originally thought that she could break the barriers with the young master this time, but she never thought that as soon as the young master arrived at home, there was a Mu Li around her for no reason.
