Three times married to Yama
Chapter 67 The Feast at Hongmen
I lost interest in visiting tourist attractions and instead found a shop near the hotel to have afternoon tea while waiting for Xia Zheng.
Fortunately, Xihu City is not far from Yanyun City; it only takes two hours by plane.
Xia Zheng arrived at my place at four in the afternoon. He had dressed up specially and looked sunny, clean, and quite trendy.
Given his appearance, as long as his character and physical condition are good, his online-to-offline meeting should not fail.
When Xia Zheng saw me, he habitually called me "Master" very enthusiastically.
Before he could even shout, I quickly stuffed a piece of bread into his mouth.
"Be careful, walls have ears. Right now, you're just a friend I met online, not my apprentice," I said softly to him.
Xia Zheng blinked, took the bread out of his mouth, and said while eating, "Okay, Lan Yin."
This guy is pretty savvy.
I asked, "Where and when did you and your gaming friends agree to meet?"
"We're planning to meet at an internet cafe tonight. After all, we met in a game, and we're going to play games together all night!" Xia Zheng became animated as he talked about his online friends from the game.
I nodded. "Okay, but you have to have a meal with me first, and you'd better act like a fool."
He immediately gave an OK sign, "Don't worry, Lan Yin, I guarantee I'll complete the mission!"
Watching Xia Zheng grin foolishly, his eyes filled with anticipation for meeting his game friends, I suddenly realized that there was no need for him to pretend to be a fool; he already was.
At six o'clock in the evening, my junior uncle was waiting for me in the hotel lobby on time. I glanced around the lobby without making a sound, but there was no sign of Aunt Hui, only him.
As soon as he saw Xia Zheng and me return, he got up and walked towards us.
"You're back." As he spoke, his eyes swept over Xia Zheng and me a few times.
"Oh, right, Junior Uncle, let me introduce you. This is my friend, Xia Zheng," I said to Junior Uncle.
Xia Zheng immediately understood and gave his junior uncle a very bright and harmless smile, "Hello, junior uncle."
Junior Uncle smiled and nodded, "Hello."
He then added, "The restaurant reservation is ready, let's go there now."
I nodded, and Xia Zheng and I followed our junior uncle to a restaurant that was a bit far from the hotel.
Cui Ling Restaurant.
My junior uncle had reserved a private room in advance. When I pushed open the door, I saw that familiar figure.
Aunt Hui was sitting in the private room when she saw the door open and looked at us.
I,"……"
Actually, I was a little speechless at this moment. I thought my junior uncle was so smart, but now it seems he's nothing special. He couldn't wait to team up with Aunt Hui and appear in front of me. Is he afraid I won't know about their secret relationship?
I stood at the door without going in, and instead took several steps back in fear. Xia Zheng, who was next to me, grabbed me and helped me up.
Seeing my reaction, my junior uncle quickly said, "Don't be afraid. What you told me before about your Aunt Hui was all a misunderstanding. I invited you to dinner tonight to clear up the misunderstanding between you."
"A misunderstanding?" My eyes instantly turned red, and tears of fear welled up in them. "Was it a misunderstanding that Aunt Hui wanted to kill me?"
"Junior Uncle, you brought me here to meet Aunt Hui now, you don't mean you want to kill me with her, do you?"
Junior Uncle's expression immediately hardened. "How could that be! How could I possibly kill you!"
At this moment, Aunt Hui also came out of the private room. Her face was worried and her eyes were kind. "Lan Yin, I have heard everything from your junior uncle. I assure you, I did not do what happened in Changyue Village. Someone was impersonating me."
She sighed, "Although I don't cultivate the righteous path, my feelings for my fellow disciples are genuine. My senior brother is someone I deeply respect, and I should treat his child as my own. How could I possibly kill you?"
Aunt Hui spoke with such sincerity, but unfortunately, I didn't believe a single word she said.
I looked at my junior uncle, and he nodded affirmatively at me.
I then looked at her cautiously. "Really? So someone else wants to kill me?"
"Of course!" Aunt Hui said indignantly. "The person who wants to kill you must be Senior Brother's old enemy. Lan Yin, you'd better be more careful in the future."
"If you forgive Aunt Hui, let's have a meal together, okay?" Her face still held a gentle and kind smile.
Xia Zheng handed me a tissue, and I took it, wiping my eyes as I nodded, "Okay."
I ate the meal with great trepidation. Aunt Hui kept putting food on my plate, and I thanked her as I ate.
Halfway through the meal, I suddenly put down my chopsticks and made an excuse to go to the restroom.
Aunt Hui seemed afraid I would run away, so she came out with me. I didn't refuse. Since she wanted to go to the toilet with me, I figured I'd go with her.
I lingered in the bathroom for a long time, and Aunt Hui was getting impatient waiting outside.
"Lan Yin, are you not ready yet?"
I said in a slightly helpless voice, "Aunt Hui, my period has started. Did you bring sanitary napkins?"
Aunt Hui, "Oh? Well, I really haven't. I haven't been here in a long time."
It seems Aunt Hui has gone through menopause.
"Then could you please buy me a pack, or ask the restaurant staff if they have any?" I asked Aunt Hui.
Aunt Hui fell silent. It seems she doesn't really want to leave me. Honestly, I'm not going to run away.
Meanwhile, in the private room, after Aunt Hui and I left, Xia Zheng immediately sat down next to Junior Uncle with a sly grin.
He stared intently at his junior uncle, causing the junior uncle to shudder.
"Is there something wrong?" Junior Uncle asked, calming himself down.
Xia Zheng stared at his junior uncle with shining eyes, his gaze filled with a desire to devour him.
"Junior Uncle, your outfit is understated yet luxurious. Although there are no obvious brand logos on your clothes, the workmanship is exquisite in every detail. You must be very rich, right?"
When Xia Zheng asked him this question, Junior Uncle was a little stunned. He probably had never met someone so direct before.
"Uh, it's alright, a little more than the average person," Junior Uncle replied politely.
Upon receiving a correct answer, Xia Zheng was so excited that he stood up abruptly, clenched his fists, and exclaimed, "Wow!"
"Could you teach me? I really want to make money, Junior Uncle~"
Xia Zheng hugged his junior uncle's shoulders and blinked his clear eyes at him.
Junior Uncle, "??? Does Lan Yin know you're like this?"
"That's not important. What's important is whether you can help me make money. I'm really terrified of being poor. My girlfriend broke up with me because I didn't have money, and my good friends have also distanced themselves from me because I don't have money."
"I really want to make money so badly, waaaaaah~~~"
As he spoke, Xia Zheng buried his face in his junior uncle's shoulder and started crying, wiping his tears and snot on his shoulder.
Junior Uncle's body was stiff. He tried to push Xia Zheng away with disgust, "Little brother, have you had too much to drink? You should rest for a bit. I'll go check on Lan Yin and the others. They haven't come back yet."
After saying that, he pushed Xia Zheng aside and quickly walked out of the private room.
Xia Zheng was the only one left in the private room. There were no tears left on his face. After glancing at the monitor in the room, he quickly poured a drop of clear liquid into the cups of his junior uncle and Aunt Hui.
