When she finally loses her temper, Yu Chaoxian will do this...
Yu Chaoxian didn't understand what she meant by looking like she'd seen a ghost.
Just then, the priest changed shifts, and as he came out, he saw half of a girl's back. The girl's long black hair fluttered in the wind, and she ran as fast as the wind.
However, the priest didn't take it to heart; he encountered many more sinful things every day. Besides, he had a poor memory and would forget things quickly.
The priest took off his wig, revealing his bare head. He couldn't help it; he wouldn't look professional without a wig. Otherwise, people would always suggest he switch careers and become a temple priest instead of a priest.
He glanced at his phone and thankfully set an alarm; he'd almost forgotten something important! His boss was more important than the priest, more important than God! Anyway, he wasn't religious; he only believed in his boss.
He lit a cigarette, got on his bicycle, and hurried back.
He met Uncle Li and Aunt Zhang on the way, and they both greeted him warmly: "Mingming, you're going to the shop so early today!"
"Yes, Aunt Zhang and Uncle Zhang, I have something important to do today," he replied with a smile.
Yes, the priest's nickname is Mingming. But being a priest is a secret, otherwise no one would want to go to church to pray.
7 PM, Mingji Snack Shop in Jiulong City.
"Boss, there's hair in this curry fish balls, how am I supposed to eat this?!" The customer was clearly looking for trouble and trying to get a free meal.
Mingming came out, threw his hat down, and slammed a machete on the table: "Want to eat shit? I'm bald, how come there's hair in this meal!"
Upon seeing the large cleaver, the fat diner threw down his money and ran away quickly.
Just as the Bentley stopped outside the store, a fat man who was running at high speed, as if someone was attacking him from behind, almost crashed into the car. Just as the fat man was about to start accusations, the car window rolled down, and the fat man caught sight of a burly foreign man in the driver's seat with tattoos on his arms, who looked like a troublemaker.
The fat man cursed under his breath. What kind of day was this? And what kind of people were we meeting? Each one was more ferocious than the last. He ran even faster than before!
Mickey Mouse parked steadily in the parking space in front of Mingji Snack Shop. Yu Tang, in the back seat, didn't look at Yu Chaoxian the whole way.
Mickey got out of the car and opened the back door. Yu Tang got out first, and Yu Chao tried to take her hand, but she subtly avoided it.
The man frowned; she had been sullen and unresponsive ever since they returned from church.
All day long, who has upset her again?
Yu Tang followed Yu Chaoxian in and immediately saw the bald head under the restaurant lights... What a handsome bald head.
His narrow eyes, set against his sharply defined face, possessed a unique, sharp handsomeness. A studded earring adorned his earlobe, giving him an overall impression of coolness!
He was so cool that Yu Tang couldn't even imagine what he would look like with hair.
She looked up at him for a long while.
Yu Chaoxian didn't say anything, but glanced at her with wide eyes. She would stare at a man like that.
He walked forward, blocking half of Yu Tang's view. Mickey was next to Yu Chaoxian, completely blocking her view.
To everyone's surprise, when Mingming saw Yu Chaoxian, he was so excited that he didn't even bother to offer a cigarette and shouted, "Boss!"
Then he saw Mickey next to him and patted him on the shoulder: "You've gotten quite muscular, Mickey."
"This little girl... she can't possibly be the boss's woman!" he said, laughing heartily as if they were old friends. Everyone knew that Yu Chaoxian was abstinent and never touched a woman.
"Mingming." Mickey coughed lightly and called his name, reminding him not to say anything more, but the latter laughed without noticing.
Yu Chao glanced at Yu Tang, waiting for her reply.
Yu Tang pursed her lips, not wanting anyone to step on her, and finally opened her mouth: "Um... my name is Yu Tang, and I am Yu Chaoxian's aunt."
Mingming almost bit his tongue. Ouch! She was actually an elder, and the eldest brother's aunt! That's a huge seniority! He immediately straightened up, bent down and introduced himself, his voice hoarse and husky: "Hello, Miss Yu. My name is Mingming, the Ming of Zhuge Kongming."
He likes to introduce himself this way, thinking it gives people the impression that he's very smart.
Mingming was also a mercenary, commissioned by his employer to assassinate Yu Chaoxian. At that time, Mingming only knew that Yu Chaoxian's codename was "Shark." The blindfolded employer revealed Yu Chaoxian's location to them. Mingming and his team did indeed find traces of Yu Chaoxian at the location the employer described.
At that time, Yu Chaoxian had just completed the mission of rescuing the president and was preparing to evacuate from the abandoned hospital on the island. Of Yu Chaoxian's four-man team, only Yu Chaoxian was still alive.
Mingming and eight other mercenaries ganged up on Yu Chaoxian alone. What truly won Mingming over was that Yu Chaoxian, with his three teammates dead, single-handedly took down the other seven.
Yu Chao first gathered the grenades from his teammates, used the tripwire to make small tripwire mines, and used himself as bait to lure the mercenaries hiding nearby, killing four of them instantly.
No wonder that one-eyed man hired the mercenary group with the highest completion rate. Not only Mingming, but even that one-eyed man underestimated Yu Chaoxian's strength. In this jungle, they were no different from living targets in Yu Chaoxian's eyes.
Of the remaining three mercenaries, only Mingming is a sniper.
Yu Chaoxian pinpointed his teammate's location with a single shot, swiftly sniping him down. He then quickly changed position, hanging upside down from a tree and piercing the mercenary's carotid artery with a dagger hidden behind the tree trunk.
Everything happened silently; he didn't even know that his last teammate had been eliminated. He hid in a thicket of leaves and exchanged two sniper shots with Yu Chaoxian. He knew Yu Chaoxian didn't have many bullets left, so he deliberately fired to lure him into firing. But those two shots directly exposed his position.
Mingming suddenly felt a chill down his spine; Yu Chaoxian's gun was already pressed against the back of his head. He was originally a desperate fugitive with no ties to the world, living for the moment, and now he could only feel sincere admiration for Shark.
Yu Chaoxian had already experienced a fierce battle, and despite being seriously injured, he still possessed such formidable combat skills. He was clearly in a state of genuine submission, even wondering why they hadn't met sooner. It was a pity that their positions differed on the battlefield; otherwise, they might have been able to become friends.
Knowing full well that his life was coming to an end, as he was about to close his eyes, he sighed and said, "If I had known, I would have opened a restaurant and become a chef. It would be such a waste for a bald man not to be a chef."
These words were clearly spoken in Chinese, not English, and were Mingming's last words. Unexpectedly, Yu Chaoxian was able to understand them.
To everyone's surprise, Yu Chaoxian also asked in Chinese: "Where do you want to open a restaurant?"
Mingming opened his eyes abruptly upon hearing Chinese, and surprisingly, Yu Chaoxian understood it.
"What's your name? I'll help you open a restaurant, but on one condition." Yu Chao put away his gun and stated his condition: "Help me bring back the body of my comrade."
Mingming stared at him and said his name: "Mingming".
He raised an eyebrow: "Yu Chaoxian."
Just then, Yu Chaoxian's eyes suddenly turned cold. He reacted quickly, dragging Mingming into the deeper rainforest. The next second, four more people got off the helicopter and opened fire on the ground with submachine guns.
Mingming realized that regardless of whether the mission to assassinate "Shark" could be completed, they would not be able to get out alive, because whoever was left would be besieged by the one-eyed employer.
It seems they don't want anyone to leak this mission and want to silence them; to be precise, they want Yu Chao dead first.
For snipers, any cover is their best hiding place. Mingming calmly aimed and fired.
At that time, Mingming certainly didn't know how fortunate Yu Chaoxian was that he hadn't shot and crippled Mingming's wrist.
Mingming's marksmanship was accurate and steady, definitely at the level of a special forces soldier. After taking out the four people in the helicopter, Yu Chaoxian and Mingming carried their comrade's body onto the helicopter and escaped from the island.
After that, Mingming went to Hong Kong as arranged by Yu Chaoxian.
As for why Mingming chose Hong Kong—Mingming said that although he was an orphan, he felt that his hometown was an Eastern country. He vaguely remembered that when he was a child, someone called him Xiaoming, and Eastern countries had the most people named Xiaoming. Therefore, Mingming naturally felt that he was a person from an Eastern country.
Later, Mingming really did become a chef. Every time Mickey came with Yu Chaoxian, he was forced to eat the curry fish balls he made.
The boss came this time to involve Mingming in the business. Orders are piling up, and they're short-handed. Just like last time when he took over Li Xiang's company in Fuzhou, Vance had arranged for a sniper on the other side, and he went to Vance's house to carry out the mission. If Mingming had been there then, things would have been much easier to handle.
After all, Mingming's marksmanship had been personally instructed and taught by the boss.
The steaming hot curry fish balls were quickly served. Yu Chaoxian glanced at them with his eyes downcast, showing no intention of touching them. Mickey, meanwhile, stared out the window the entire time, seemingly oblivious to the food on the table.
Mingming cleared his throat and tapped the table. This time, Mickey could no longer pretend not to see it and had no choice but to reluctantly pick up a piece and put it in his mouth.
“If you ask me,” Mickey frowned as he swallowed the fish ball, “you should quit being a cook and go shoot guns.”
"An insult! A tremendous insult!" Mingming was heartbroken. "You can say I'm bad at shooting, but you can't say I'm bad at cooking!"
Mickey was speechless. Mingming's shooting skills were actually quite good. He could even go toe-to-toe with a sniper genius like the boss, proving that he was definitely a sniper genius as well.
Seeing that neither of them touched their chopsticks, Yu Tang felt embarrassed not to eat. She picked up a piece and tasted it, and Yu Chaoxian looked down at her.
"How does it taste?" Mingming looked at Yutang expectantly.
Yu Tang ate one after another, nodding enthusiastically, "Delicious!"
"I knew it! Someone would appreciate my cooking skills!" Mingming excitedly grabbed Yu Tang's hand, but Yu Chaoxian quickly brushed it away.
"Wait, I'll show you another skill!" Mingming was completely unaware of why his boss had hit his hand, and rushed into the kitchen in a flurry.
Yu Chaoxian frowned: "Delicious?"
When Yu Tang noticed that Mingming wasn't there, she whispered, "But wouldn't it be too hurtful to him to say it doesn't taste good?"
Worried that Mingming had made too much and she wouldn't be able to finish it, Yu Tang poked Yu Chaoxian's sleeve and said, "If I can't finish it, can you help me divide it in half?"
The man looked down at the small hand clinging to his sleeve, which couldn't even hold his arm. "How do you plan to beg?"
Is this a requirement? Yu Tang didn't want to talk to him anymore, so she moved further inside, away from Yu Chaoxian.
The hand that was touching his arm moved away, and the sweet fragrance faded away. Yu Chaoxian was displeased and immediately grabbed the other person's hand, squeezing it twice: "Are you angry?"
Yu Tang ignored him and turned to Mickey, "Mickey, how about I share half with you?"
Good...or bad, that is the question. Mickey stood up and looked outside: "I remember there's a drink shop across the street. I'll go buy a milkshake!"
“Nobody’s here,” Yu Chaoxian tugged at her hand, making her look over. “Hurry up with your request, three, two…”
She finally couldn't hold back anymore, and Yu Chaoxian would use this countdown to pressure her, and it always worked.
Yu Tang suddenly turned her head, and he captured the corner of her lips with his.
The man close to her chuckled softly, his voice gently touching her lips: "Does Auntie like this way of asking?"
Yu Tang was embarrassed and annoyed. This person was clearly the one who suddenly approached her... Yu Tang tilted her head and wiped her mouth on his clothes.
Yu Chaoxian just smiled, not annoyed. He reached out and ruffled her hair, even her tantrum smelled sweet. It's good that she has a temper; finally, she wasn't the sullen, bullied girl she had been looking at earlier.
When Mingming brought over some sweet soup, Yu Tang visibly relaxed upon seeing it was sweet soup and not fish balls. She then suspected that Yu Chaoxian had known all along that Mingming couldn't cook much.
She glanced at him out of the corner of her eye, just as Yu Chaoxian's phone rang.
A call from Ah Jin.
"Boss, Xu Yu'an, chairman of Xinghai Group, contacted the Yu family, saying he has business to discuss, but he wants to talk to you about the details of the business separately."
Upon hearing this, Yu Chao raised an eyebrow. Xinghai Group, a real estate company in an Eastern country, was involved in real estate on the surface, but behind the scenes, it also engaged in arms dealing just like the Yu family.
However, he was a stateless businessman with no political stance, while the Xinghai Group only served the country and fought for the country.
This Xu Yu'an is no ordinary man; his father is an executive officer of the Hong Kong Special Administrative Region. He is highly likely to be the next Chief Executive. Therefore, one has to give Xu Yu'an face, especially since Yu Tang will be studying in Hong Kong in the future, and certain connections need to be cultivated.
Yu Chaoxian lit a cigarette and looked at the girl sitting obediently in the room eating sweet soup: "Okay, let him decide the time."
Mingming really liked Yu Tang and thought Yu Tang had great taste. After all, she had just praised him for making delicious fish balls. She had never met someone with such good taste before.
Seeing that his boss was on the phone and had no time to deal with this, he immediately went over and gossiped, asking like a neighborhood matchmaker: "Miss Yu, how old are you? Do you have a boyfriend? What kind of guy do you like? Shall I introduce you to someone? Don't let my appearance fool you, I know a lot of good boys!"
When he was a priest, many powerful and influential people came to him to pray, asking for God's forgiveness and pardon. He forgave them on God's behalf, and they were very happy and gave him a large sum of money.
Yu Tang dropped the spoon in surprise: "Why are you suddenly bringing this up?"
Knowing full well that the young girl was shy, he had experience; after all, he had successfully paired up many couples, and he even had a matchmaking banner presented to him. "Isn't your age the perfect time for dating? Don't be shy. When you're young, you should date and enjoy life. How will you know which one is good if you don't date a few? I have plenty of resources here. If you don't like someone, we can move on. Just enjoy yourself, don't be embarrassed, and don't be polite with me!"
"No, no need, I really didn't mean that..." Yu Tang knew that Mingming meant no harm, but suddenly telling her these things was still beyond what she could accept.
"Tell me what kind you like first?"
Seeing that Mingming wouldn't let it go, Yu Tang had no choice but to say, "Let's be gentler."
"As for appearance, what are your preferences? Handsome? Good-looking? Beautiful?"
Yu Tang couldn't say a word.
Seeing this, Mingming had a general idea in mind. Yu Tang was always by the boss's side and had gotten used to the boss's face, so it was indeed difficult for others to catch his eye. He nodded in agreement and gave Yu Tang the answer: "You want to find someone like the boss, right?"
The noise in the restaurant seemed to fall silent for a moment. Yu Tang gripped the glass tightly, water droplets sliding down her body and leaving a winding trail on the table.
“I…” Yu Tang didn’t know what to say. She looked up and saw the man on the phone at the door.
The man's profile was deep and refined, smoke rising from his fingertips. He habitually squinted when flicking ash, just like now.
Yu Tang met Yu Chaoxian's deep gaze through the thin smoke, the smoke obscuring his angular features. Yu Chaoxian was also looking at her.
Her heart skipped a beat.
-----------------------
The author's note: Actually, Yu Chaoxian always notices that Tangtang is angry immediately, and he just likes to provoke her. He does it on purpose, wanting Tangtang to pay attention to him.
