Feeling the warmth from Jiang Lai's hand, Gang Sheng secretly glanced at him, lowered his head and bit his lip. He didn't refuse, but his face turned red to the roots of his ears.
"How about this one?" As the two walked down the street in Tsim Sha Tsui, Jiang Lai spotted a nicely decorated Western restaurant and asked Gang Sheng.
"Western food?" Gang Sheng looked up and saw the restaurant Jiang Lai mentioned.
"Ok!"
"It looks expensive!" Hong Sheng muttered to himself as he looked at the restaurant's decor.
"How expensive could it be?" Jiang Lai shrugged nonchalantly.
"Let's not go, let's go eat hot pot!" With that, Gangsheng grabbed Jianglai's hand and ran towards a food stall across the street.
"Hello?" Jiang Lai almost stumbled from being pulled.
Left with no other choice, Jiang Lai was dragged by Gang Sheng to the food stall.
"Good Fortune Comes to the Forefront: Hot Pot - A pretty good name!" Jiang Lai looked up at the signboard and couldn't help but praise it.
"Yes, look how lively it is here!" Gang Sheng excitedly pulled Jiang Lai, his face full of pride.
Jiang Lai rolled his eyes at her: "Why would you choose hot pot over a fancy meal? I don't know what you're thinking."
"Hmm, what's so great about Western food? It's so quiet and deserted. Look how nice this place is." As she spoke, Gang Sheng gestured for Jiang to look at the surroundings. Her mood improved a lot, and a smile appeared on her face.
"You have no idea, when my stomach was growling loudly, I almost died of hunger when I smelled this aroma while walking by the roadside." Although Gang Sheng still had a smile on his face, there was a hint of sadness in it.
Jiang opened his mouth, then swallowed his words back.
"Alright, I'll grant your wish. Order whatever you want!" With that, the two walked to a table, Jiang Lai pulled out a chair, sat down, and gestured that they didn't need to be polite.
"Gentlemen, what kind of hot pot base would you like?" The owner quickly stepped forward as the two men sat down.
"Ask her!" Jiang Lai noticed the boss staring at him, so he gestured to Gang Sheng with his chin.
After seeing Jiang Lai's actions, the boss nodded and then looked at Gang Sheng.
"Boss, what kind of hot pot base do you have?" Hong Sheng asked the boss like a curious child.
"We have nourishing pork bone soup, beauty-enhancing fish maw chicken soup, seafood congee hot pot..." the owner listed several soup bases in a row.
"So much?" Gang Sheng exclaimed in surprise, nudging Jiang Lai with his elbow. "What do you want to eat?"
"You choose, I'm fine with anything!" Jiang Lai gestured for her to choose.
"Oh!" Hong Sheng hesitated for a moment, then thought for a moment and said, "Then give us a nourishing fish maw chicken soup!"
"Okay, please wait a moment, you can take a look at the menu first!" With that, the owner shouted into the room, "One pot of fish maw chicken!"
Then he handed over a menu, indicating that Jiang Lai and the others could order.
Jiang took the menu, glanced at it, ordered several seafood and beef dishes, and then handed it to Gangsheng, who ordered several vegetarian dishes.
Speaking of hot pot, Jiang Lai rarely eats it.
He felt that Hong Kong's hot pot was relatively mild, although it focused more on the original flavor and the soup was very delicious. However, compared to the Sichuan hot pot he had eaten before, he still preferred the spicy feeling. Even though his lips were already dancing, it was still irresistible.
Soon, the owner brought the soup pot and dishes to the table.
Slip!
Hong Sheng scooped up a spoonful of soup and couldn't wait to taste it. After drinking it, he couldn't help but exclaim, "Wow, it's so delicious!"
Then he looked excitedly at Jiang Lai: "Jiang Lai, you should try it."
"Mm!" Jiang Lai smiled and nodded.
He then ladled himself two spoonfuls of broth, picked it up, and tasted it.
The broth is concentrated with the essence of the chicken, and it has a slightly thick consistency with a very delicious flavor.
"How is it?" Gang Sheng stared intently at Jiang Lai, hoping to get Jiang Lai's approval.
Jiang Lai pursed his lips, then put down the bowl in his hand: "It tastes good!"
"Hehe, I told you this was delicious!" Gang Sheng smiled happily, his lips curling up, his tone somewhat smug.
Jiang Lai looked at Gang Sheng and thought that this was her original appearance, with a touch of girlish playfulness.
"It's delicious, come on, have a piece of meat!" Jiang Lai cooked a slice of beef and put it in Gang Sheng's bowl, indicating that she shouldn't just drink the soup.
"Mmm!" Looking at the beef in the bowl, Gang Sheng's heart seemed to be touched for a moment. He bit his lip and responded.
Although the environment of this food stall is not great, with some old tables and chairs, the food is really good. At least Jiang Lai found it quite comfortable to eat there.
"You eat first, I'm going to the restroom!" Jiang Lai probably drank too much soup and wanted to use the restroom.
"Oh!" Gang Sheng nodded, holding his bowl.
After saying that, Jiang Lai got up and walked towards the restroom inside.
Gang Sheng watched Jiang Lai's retreating figure, a happy expression on his face, and a faint smile appeared on his face.
"Ah!" Suddenly, a sharp pain shot through Gang Sheng's head, causing her to cry out in surprise.
"You brat, I've finally found you." Snakehead grabbed Gang Sheng's hair and pulled it back forcefully, his sinister tone tinged with a hint of surprise.
Bang!
Gang Sheng was dragged from the chair to the ground by the smuggler Wei, who pulled her by the hair. She tried desperately to resist, but the pain brought tears to her eyes.

Chapter 101 The Power of the Snake Head
"Let me go~ Ah, please, let me go." Hong Sheng struggled desperately, trying to escape.
Snakehead Wei showed no mercy, instead revealing a rampant smile, his scars on his face looking particularly ferocious. He forcefully grabbed Gang Sheng by the hair and lifted her off the ground.
Snapped!
"You brat, come here right now." Snakehead slapped Gang Sheng hard across the face, then grabbed her head forcefully.
At this moment, Snakehead Wei was like a venomous snake, his eyes filled with danger and ferocity.
"Ah~ no~ ah~" Snakehead Wei's pulling caused Gang Sheng great pain.
Hong Sheng's face was filled with fear and pain. He was trembling all over and tried to shake his head to signal him to let him go, but his hair was being pulled painfully.
"Hey, what are you doing?" The boss saw what was happening and quickly tried to stop it.
"Get out of the way!" Snakehead Wei grabbed Gang Sheng with one hand and kicked the boss in the stomach with the other.
boom!
The boss was kicked to the ground, clutching his stomach. Snakehead Wei pointed at him and said viciously, "This is none of your business. If you dare to sneeze, I'll kill you!"
“You…” The boss fell to the ground, pointing his finger at Snakehead Wei.
"Hmm?" Snakehead Wei narrowed his eyes and gave the boss a fierce look.
Seeing Snakehead Wei's fierce appearance, the other customers kept their distance, and the owner dared not approach him again.
"Let me go, please let me go!" Hong Sheng pleaded repeatedly, tears streaming down his face.
"Let you go~ Hmph, I went through all that trouble to save you, and I didn't get any reward for it. What did you get in return? Look at my face, you filthy bitch!" Snakehead Wei's face was ferocious as he pinched Gang Sheng's face hard with his hands, like a raging wild beast.
"Ahhh!" Gang Sheng twisted his neck and struggled, shouting with his last bit of strength, "Jiang Lai, save me, Jiang Lai~~"
Snapped!
Bang!
Seeing Hong Kong student struggling desperately, Snakehead Wei slapped him hard again.
Hong Kong student was slapped to the ground, knocking over tables and chairs nearby.
Snakehead Wei crouched down and used his elbow to strangle Gang Sheng's neck: "It's no use calling anyone today, just come with me obediently!"
"Ugh~ cough~ no~" Gang Sheng struggled and cried out desperately as his neck was being strangled.
"Hahaha!" The more Hong Sheng struggled, the more excited Snakehead Wei laughed.
At this moment, Jiang Lai came out of the restroom and saw that everyone was staring at his table, and realized that something was wrong.
He quickly pushed through the crowd. Jiang Lai's pupils widened, his eyeballs seemed to leap out of their sockets, his breathing became rapid, and his chest heaved violently. He saw a scene that made his eyes widen in horror.
"Let her go!" Jiang Lai rushed over instantly, roaring as he did so.
As the smuggler, Wei, tightened his grip on Gang Sheng's neck, he was enjoying this perverse pleasure.
Suddenly hearing Jiang Lai's roar, he, who was bent over, subconsciously looked up: "Huh?"
boom!
Jiang Lai was incredibly fast, like lightning, and arrived right in front of him, then delivered a powerful kick to Snakehead Wei's shoulder.
Click!
"Ah!" Snakehead Wei screamed in agony.
Jiang Lai's kick was very powerful; Snakehead Wei's arm was broken, and the hand that was holding Gang Sheng was instantly released. At the same time, he rolled backward.
Jiang Lai didn't kick him in the head directly because Gang Sheng blocked his head; otherwise, it would have been an explosive scene.
boom!
Jiang Lai kicked Snakehead Wei in the abdomen again. Snakehead Wei immediately felt a sharp pain in his abdomen, as if Jiang Lai had kicked his intestines out. He couldn't help but vomit a mouthful of bitter water and lay on the ground, rolling his body back and forth.
Seeing Snakehead Wei's appearance, Jiang Lai temporarily ignored him and quickly went to Gang Sheng.
"Don't be afraid, don't be afraid!" Jiang Lai picked up Gang Sheng from the ground, held her head in his arms, and comforted her.
Woo! Woo!
"Jiang Lai!!" Gang Sheng bit his lip, his voice trembling with sobs, and hugged Jiang Lai tightly, large tears streaming down his face.
Hong Kong student trembled all over, terrified and panicked to the extreme.
"Alright, it's nothing, sit down for a bit!" Jiang Lai gently patted her head and then helped her to a chair.
"Jiang Lai~ I'm scared!" Gang Sheng raised his red-rimmed eyes, grabbed Jiang Lai's sleeve, and dared not let go.
"Don't worry!" Jiang Lai wiped away her tears. "Don't be afraid, I'll make him pay the price."
