"Mr. Ma, you are such a rare guest. Please come in quickly." After putting away Ji You's clothes, Lin Xi and his group also came to the place where they met for the first time. When the restaurant shopkeeper saw Ma Hong and others coming in, he immediately walked over quickly, smiled and clasped his fists.
"Okay, Manager Hu, let's put away your tricks. I'm tired of hearing it. We come almost every day, so what a rare guest." When Ma Hong heard the same opening remarks of the middle-aged man who was walking over, he laughed and scolded, obviously very familiar with the other party.
"Haha, I'm used to it. Mr. Ma will still be a private room this time?" The middle-aged man said with a smile without caring about Ma Hong's tone.
Ma Hong did not answer immediately, and turned to look at Lin Xi next to him.
Seeing Ma Hong's actions, the middle-aged man turned his attention to the young man on the side and reexamined the other party. Ma Hong's intention should be asking for his opinion. If he said so, the identity of this person had to be taken seriously.
Lin Xi looked around and said, "Let's go to the lobby, isn't it better to be lively?"
"Okay! Just Brother Lin's words, Manager Hu, the innermost location in the lobby." Ma Hong pointed to a place and said to the middle-aged man in front of him.
"Okay, where is the wine and food?" Middle-aged man clapped his hands, constantly guessing the boy's identity in his heart.
"It's the same as before, so do you need to ask?" Ma Hong looked around as he spoke. Although it was not dinner time now, the seats in the lobby were also sitting in a slight manner. After people familiar with Ma Hong touched the other party's gaze, they all smiled friendly.
"I understand, please sit down and wait, just do it right now!" After asking everything clearly, the middle-aged man glanced at Lin Xi, then turned around and left.
"Brother Lin, please." Ma Hong stretched out his right hand to Lin Xi.
"Brother Ma, don't be polite." Lin Xi didn't like these etiquettes very much. After saying this, he raised his foot and walked forward, and Ma Hong and others followed immediately.
After the group sat down, Ma Hong filled the tea in front of Lin Xi, then raised the tea cup in his hand and said, "Brother Lin, although you don't want to hear this, I still want to say that for today's matter, I would like to thank you for using tea instead of wine!"
The other three also raised the tea cups in their hands.
"Brother Ma, you are here again." Lin Xi smiled helplessly. This matter was nothing to him, but seeing that the other party still held the teacup in the air, he had to pick up the cup in front of him and expressed his acceptance of the other party's gratitude.
Ma Hong smiled with satisfaction, drank the tea in his hand in one go, and Lin Xi also put the cup in his hand into his mouth.
"Do you know, the second young master of the Qian family went to the Su family today." At this time, a sound of speech came from a wine table not far from Lin Xi.
"Why do you want to bring this kind of small thing? Come and drink." Another person waved his hand impatiently and lifted the wine glass in his hand.
"I think that mother and son are very pitiful, hey." The man shook his head and sighed before.
"Poor? Then go and ask Qian Ning for trouble." He ignored him and the other person finished the wine in his hand.
"I don't have that ability..." The person who mentioned this also picked up the wine glass in front of him and started drinking slowly.
At this time, Lin Xi's ears moved, and his tea was also stagnant. He suddenly smashed the cup on the table, splashing tea water all over the surroundings, and then he got up and walked towards the two people who were talking before.
Ma Hong and others were startled by Lin Xi's actions. After looking at each other in confusion, they also left the table and walked towards Lin Xi's departure.
A moment later, Lin Xi came to another wine table and stared at the person who was talking before.
The two people who were sitting on a stool drinking and saw a young man walking over, and couldn't help but wonder. When they saw Ma Hong and others coming over behind him, they were shocked and stood up quickly. They all knew these people, one was the eldest son of the Ma family, and the other was the leader of the two major mercenary groups. No matter which one was they could offend.
"Brother Lin? What's going on?" Ma Hong walked to Lin Xi at this moment, looked at the two people who were a little scared, not knowing what happened. The two people next to the table looked nervously at the boy in front of him, not knowing where he offended each other. Judging from Ma Hong's appearance, he should be his friend. Although he didn't know who the boy was, Ma Hong could easily ravage them.
Now that the people watching everyone stare at him coldly, how could they not let these two people be frightened?
Without answering Ma Hong's words, Lin Xi was still staring at the person who was talking before, and a cold voice came out: "Which Su family were you just talking about?"
"Ah? It's... the Su family that has declined now." Looking at the people behind Lin Xi, the person who was questioned hurriedly replied.
Upon hearing this, Lin Xi turned around and left the place without any hesitation. Ma Hong glanced at the two people who were trembling and hurriedly chased after them with the others, leaving behind the two people sweating and at a loss.
Lin Xi walked quickly on the street in one direction, clenched her fists and gritted her teeth. She was extremely anxious, afraid that something would happen to Su Xiu and his daughter.
Although Ma Hong and the others behind him didn't know what was going on, they followed Lin Xi's footsteps to see if there was anything that could help the other party.
With a bang, Lin Xi pushed open the Su family's door and walked in immediately. In the courtyard, Su Xiu was squatting on the ground washing clothes. Seeing Su Xiu's figure, Lin Xi was also relieved. It seemed that the Su family that the person mentioned before should not be them...
Hearing the movement at the door, Su Xiu looked up and looked happy. He stopped the movement in his hand and ran over happily.
"Brother Lin Xi, you are back!"
Seeing Su Xiu running over, Lin Xi smiled softly and walked over.
Suddenly, Lin Xi's smile froze, and a red slap mark entered his sight on Su Xiu's left face. Against the backdrop of her innocent smile, this abrupt slap mark looked so eye-catching.
Ma Hong and others also saw this palm print and were shocked and suddenly felt something was wrong.
Lin Xi clenched her fist, but her smile did not disappear. She bowed slightly and hugged the oncoming figure.
"Su Xiu, have you eaten?" Lin Xi asked with a smile, trying not to look at the palm prints on her face, but the anger in her heart was slowly rising.
"No, I haven't done it yet. Brother Lin Xi is hungry? I'll do it for you." The girl smiled happily. The palm prints on her face did not bring any sadness to her. She was still caring about Lin Xi. In her heart, the elder brother who saved her and helped her family has become the closest person in her heart, just like her mother.
"No need, I've eaten it, I'll give it to you." Lin Xi felt ache in her heart, and the smile on her face remained unchanged. She flipped her palms and a stack of clothes appeared on her hands, looking very beautiful under the sunlight.
"Wow, so beautiful!" Su Xiu looked at the clothes in Lin Xi's hands with a shimmering look, her face full of surprise.
"How is it, Brother Lin Xi won't lie to you, right?" Lin Xi joked at the happy girl in front of him.
"Thank you, Brother Lin Xi!" Su Xiu came over, kissed Lin Xi sweetly, wiped her hands, and carefully took the clothes from Lin Xi's hand.
Looking at the girl who was looking at the clothes in her hands with joy, Lin Xi asked slowly at this time: "Su Xiu, brother, please, who made the palm prints on your face?"
