Chapter 357 The person the scavenger old man is looking for appears

Li Yao smiled like a greasy uncle: "Hi Miss Ye, we haven't seen each other for a long time, take a look at our boss's new car."

Damn it, I really can't bear to let him go, but he's like a ghost that won't go away. I saw the back door open, and sure enough, the person who got out was Tang Bushi. It's better for this guy to be lame, so that he doesn't have to go out so often.

Damn, she just arrived yesterday and got the news today, is it a ghost?

Tang Buci's fair face was covered with a smile that deserved a beating, and his voice was ethereal:

"It's been a long time since I last saw you, Miss Ye Xiaomei."

Ye Xiaomei's back teeth were about to break, how could that stone lump be so curious? Why don't you go hang out with Qin Rong? She's in the hospital now, go quickly, you two are a perfect match.

Ye Xiaomei was about to speak, but unexpectedly the old man took a few steps and turned back.

The old man pointed at Tang Buci and took a few uncontrollable steps forward. If Ye Xiaomei hadn't been quick to help him, he would have fallen.

Straightening his heels, the old man stared at Tang Buci intently:

"You, you, you... it's you, you can't leave, you can't go anywhere."

As he said this, he grabbed Tang Buci's arm tightly with both hands.

Ye Xiaomei was stunned for a moment. What was going on?

Tang Buci was also stunned and tried to withdraw his hand, but he didn't expect that he couldn't pull it out: "What are you doing, old man? Are you trying to scam me? My car is new, there's not a scratch on it, and you were walking on the sidewalk, I didn't hit you, don't blame me."

Stunned, Ye Xiaomei could only look at the equally confused Li Yao. Seeing this, he also got out of the car and said arrogantly:

"Old man, don't think that our boss is rich and you only pick on expensive things."

Ye Xiaomei looked at Tang Buci, then at the old man, and finally at the little one hiding behind her. He also had a puzzled look on his face. What happened?

The old man's mouth trembled and he stared at Tang Buci with eyes as sharp as knives. He looked like he was too nervous and didn't know what to say.

"Grandpa, please let go first. Don't worry, I know where his home is and he can't run away. Don't get excited." Ye Xiaomei reached out to pull the grandfather's hand down, but she didn't expect that the old man's fingers were very strong and it took a lot of effort to pull it down.

The old man took two steps back, fortunately Ye Xiaomei held him up.

Tang Buci was also confused: "Master, I don't think we know each other. If you want money, just tell me. I have thirty or fifty dollars."

Really, Ye Xiaomei rolled her eyes at Tang Buci. A rich guy wouldn't make thirty or fifty yuan sound so high-sounding, Ye Xiaomei thought fiercely.

The old man was still very excited and opened his mouth and said, "You won't refuse."

Ye Xiaomei was stunned, and Tang Bushi's face darkened.

He lowered his reflexes and asked, "How do you know?"

"I gave you your name, how could I not know it? You were born without eyebrows, and I had to treat it for you. You even have a mole in your eyebrow." The old man jumped up in anger. This scared Ye Xiaomei. She was really afraid that he would fall.

Tang Bushi was so frightened that he took two steps back and subconsciously touched his left eyebrow. There was indeed a mole in his eyebrow.

Tang Buci's expression suddenly became serious: "You named it for me?"

"If not me, then who else could it be? Could it be your..." The old man said this and suddenly looked at Ye Xiaomei and Li Yao who was standing beside him with a silly look on his face, and swallowed the rest of his words.

Tang Buci's expression became dull. He slowly raised his finger and pointed at his nose, stretched his head and said word by word:

"You... are my biological father? You look too old to be my biological father."

"Puh..." the old man spat fiercely.

Tang Bushi quickly turned his head away and took a few steps back. He felt really uncomfortable with the spit sprayed all over his face.

Ye Xiaomei also subconsciously took a step back. She didn't expect that the old man, who was over a hundred years old, had plenty of energy. He spat and the saliva blew onto her face.

Now it's time to watch something interesting. Could it be that Tang Bushi has done something extremely treasonous and unrighteous, or betrayed his teacher and ancestors?

This time they came to my door.

But how could Tang Bushi, who had finally found Ye Xiaomei, let her go so easily?

The hot pot restaurant's account book was taken directly to the Tang family's residence, and Ye Xiaomei was asked to reconcile the accounts, but the Black Toad Stone had to be shown to him.

"Are you ready?" Tang Bushi stood in his study and looked at Ye Xiaomei who had taken over his place.

Ye Xiaomei sat in front of the huge rosewood table, still writing and drawing seriously, with the electronic calculator beside her typing away.

"no."

Tang Bushi paced back and forth impatiently: "Then you can show me the Black Toad Stone."

Ye Xiaomei ignored her and continued to look through the account book.

Tang Buci said anxiously: "I will watch it here and will not take it away. I will never leave your sight. Don't worry, I won't steal it for you."

Ye Xiaomei finished typing the last page, then wrote down the number. Then she looked up with a pair of dead fish eyes and said:

"It's done. My monthly turnover is NT$60,000, pure profit."

In fact, there is a bill of three thousand yuan that doesn't match. I'll talk to Zhaodi about it when I have time. Maybe I remembered the account wrong.

"..." Tang Bucibai rolled his eyes in boredom. It's just that little bit. Forget it, so as not to upset you, Ye Xiaomei.

Ye Xiaomei saw through it and said calmly, "It's definitely not as much as what you cheated, but someone opened a restaurant and lost hundreds of thousands of dollars. Sigh... this is the biggest difference between steady and mysterious."

Tang Buci turned around abruptly and looked at the girl with a simple appearance and baby fat:

"What do you mean by that?"

"It's just the surface meaning. Whatever you understand is what it means." Ye Xiaomei put away the account book with a satisfied and calm mind. Everything is done:

"Where is the old man?"

Tang Buci realized that Ye Xiaomei was sent by God to irritate him, and said unhappily:

"Don't worry, I won't kill him. He's taking a shower and changing clothes now."

After hearing this, Ye Xiaomei's impression of Tang Buci improved a little. She put the account book into the cloth bag, took out the stone lump wrapped in several layers of rags, and put it on the table:

“Well, it’s right here.”

Tang Bushi took two steps forward at a time, grabbed it and took a look. He could tell at a glance that it was wrapped in several layers of cloth. After tearing it open, the gray-black stone block inside was exposed before his eyes.

Ye Xiaomei reminded: "Turn off the lights."

Tang Buci hurriedly turned off the light.

In an instant, the study was filled with colorful rays of light. This naturally could not be used as a light bulb, because the rough surface would cause irregular refraction of light, and one could not even see the words clearly when reading with this thing.

It can make a person's shadow shattered, so it is completely useless.

Tang Buci, however, leaned forward to take a look out of curiosity, and said to himself, "It's hollow inside."

"It must be hollow, otherwise the black toad wouldn't be able to survive."

Ye Xiaomei understood this point clearly, but Tang Bushi's next words made her scalp tingle.

"But it's still so big and hasn't broken through its petrified shell. I'm afraid it's going to die."

Tang Bushi held it in his hands and looked at it carefully.

Ye Xiaomei was like someone's tail was stepped on: "I'm going to die? Why?"

At this moment, it was obvious that Tang Bushi's obsession with some things was far greater than his own. He had collected much more information related to data than himself.

Tang Bu Ci said slowly: "You said a lot when you called me, but you didn't mention how big the black toad was, so I didn't understand why it was wrapped in stones, but now I understand.

You see, the toxins secreted by the black toad can petrify itself to protect itself, so it can only survive in the stone for a certain period of time. Once it wakes up, it will be stimulated to naturally secrete toxins, and the petrified body will become harder and harder, and finally fill up the hollow part inside."

Ye Xiaomei's pupils shrank and she grabbed the stone egg.
