Chapter 3: The Gluttonous Old Man

  "That's how fierce Xiao Yang is, I've seen it with my own eyes. But what I'm worried about is that it might hurt Xiao Yang, if he accidentally scratches his face, then Xiao Yang won't be handsome anymore, and I'll be heartbroken." Zhong Shiqi had a lovesick expression on her face.

  "Alright, alright, Qiki, you're right, Xiao Yang is very happy." Xiao Yang forced a smile and quickly placated her, preventing Zhong Shiqi from becoming even more infatuated.

  This girl is so spoiled, it's a headache.

  Xiao Yang had always treated Zhong Shiqi as his own sister, without any improper thoughts. However, fate was not on their side. Just a few days ago, Shiqi expressed her feelings to Xiao Yang, saying she wanted to be his wife in the future.

  Xiao Yang didn't dislike Zhong Shiqi, on the contrary, Zhong Shiqi was very beautiful, had a good figure and developed well, with a curvy front and back. However, when facing her, there wasn't that kind of spark between men and women, no feeling at all.

  "Master, why are you being so fierce to Xiao Yang's brother? And you even used a knife to hurt Xiao Yang's brother?" Zhong Shiqi turned her head and said to the old man.

  "Hmph, ask this stinky little brat himself how he provoked me. I haven't torn him to pieces yet, and that's already being too kind to him. If I really wanted to take action, do you think he'd be unscathed?" The old man shouted angrily, pointing at Xiao Yang.

  "Master, what has Xiao Yang done to offend you and make you unhappy? I'll apologize on his behalf. Shouldn't you calm down now?" Zhong Shiqi said with a gentle tone.

  Although Zhong Shiqi said so, Lao Tou's anger did not subside at all. He and Xiao Yang stood on opposite sides, glaring at each other.

  Seeing this situation, Zhong Shiqi knew that language was no longer of much use to the two men, and could only helplessly shake his head, it's time to bring out the big guns again.

  Xiao Yang and Zao Lao Tou have been quarreling for over a decade, it's as common as eating at home. So, after a long time, Zhong Shiqi came up with a quick solution.

  Standing in front of the two, Zhong Shiqi pretended to be sad and sighed: "Alas, today I finally made the master's favorite braised pork belly, and bought the master's favorite wine. But looking at the situation, the master is not lucky enough to enjoy it. I think I'll just go in and feed it to the pigs instead, throwing it away would be a waste."

  After finishing speaking, Zhong Shiqi didn't hurry to leave, but instead waited there to see the expression on Lao Tzu's face.

  After a hard struggle, the old scoundrel finally gave in.

  After exercising, the old man smiled and said to Zhong Shiqi: "Shiqi, actually I didn't scold your brother Xiao Yang, I was training his endurance for his own good. By the way, you said you made braised pork, your teacher's favorite dish, is it true?"

  As soon as the braised pork was mentioned, Old Man's eyes sparkled like gold and his mouth began to water.

  "Of course it's true! How could I deceive Master?" Zhong Shiqi said with confidence.

  "You're truly a good apprentice of your master! After all these years, it seems that your master hasn't spoiled you in vain. You know how to be grateful and are worthy of encouragement!"

  The old man gave Qiong Shiqi a thumbs up, took two steps forward, but suddenly stopped, as if he had thought of something again, turned his head and asked: "What about my wine?"

  Looking at the old man's comical appearance, Zhong Shiqi couldn't help but laugh and said: "They're all on the table, enough for you to drink to your heart's content."

  When he heard Zhong Shi Qi say that, the old man didn't care about any etiquette and rushed into the house in a hurry.

  "Xiao Yang, from now on, try not to annoy Master, he's getting older and his brain isn't as sharp as before, we need to be more considerate of him." Zhong Shiqi only dared to say this after she saw that her master was not around.

  Xiao Yang nodded, but muttered to himself: "Well, from now on, I won't even have the chance to provoke him if I want to."

  "Xiao Yang gege, what did you say?"

  "Oh, nothing, nothing." Xiao Yang hastily covered up.

  He himself is going to leave tomorrow, but Xiao Yang doesn't plan to tell Zhong Shiqi about it. Otherwise, she will definitely make a fuss and insist on following him. He's going out to make a living, not to go on vacation and have fun. It's not good for a girl like her to follow him around everywhere he goes.

  "Then we'll go in and have dinner too." Zhong Shiqi said sweetly.

  "Hmm!"

  Then Zhong Shiqi quickly took a few steps forward, holding Xiao Yang's right arm, with a happy face, and walked into the house with Xiao Yang.

  This girl is too enthusiastic, at least Xiao Yang thinks it's very awkward, especially for girls with well-developed breasts. She happily holds your hand and her chest squeezes against your arm, but you can't show that you're too perverted or lustful, it's really uncomfortable in the heart.

  It's also a kind of suffering when you can't express your suppressed emotions!

  Zhong Shiqi was dragging Xiao Yang along when Xiao Yang was in a lot of trouble.

  At the dinner table, Xiao Yang and his three friends were eating with relish. Zhong Shiqi kept putting food and meat into Xiao Yang's bowl, feeling especially happy. But what she didn't know was that tomorrow, she would be separating from her beloved Xiao Yang brother, and even more tragically, it would be a completely unexpected separation!

  The next afternoon.

  "Ladies and gentlemen, the train is approaching the station. Please gather your belongings and prepare to disembark. Thank you!" The sweet voice of the train staff came from the carriage.

  The train slowed down and stopped. The door of the carriage opened, and a young man got off first, carrying a bag on his shoulder with an air of nonchalance.

  This handsome young man is Xiao Yang!

  Looking at this strange and prosperous city, Xiao Yang couldn't help but shout loudly like on TV: "Damn it, if I don't make a good life for myself, I won't come back!"

  The people in the station were coming and going, flowing constantly, when they were all shocked by this sound.

  "What's wrong with this guy, yelling and screaming like a ghost?"

  "Probably another lunatic from some mental hospital."

  "There are more and more people like this now, just ignore him."

  There were some unpleasant voices in the crowd, but Xiao Yang didn't care. He just thought that the most urgent thing was to find a job and settle down first.

  Having made up his mind, Xiao Yang slung his backpack over his shoulder and headed towards the train station entrance.

  "I'm telling you, miss, this is a genuine Apple 4S phone, it's the real deal, and I'm only selling it to you for 1500 yuan. This is already the lowest price I can offer without losing money, if you think it's still too expensive, then I won't be able to do business."

  Just as Xiao Yang was about to walk out of the station, he suddenly saw a man wearing a duck tongue hat, who was selling mobile phones to an 18-year-old girl, and it was the latest Apple phone!

  Wang Ziyuan is a genuine countryside girl. This was her first time coming to the big city, and she yearned for and admired the urban lifestyle.
