Chapter 177 His Moon, Finally Recognized (Part 2)
The old man looked in the direction of the sound and saw a girl who was younger than the boy.
As for appearance...
It looks very nice.
It's just that his eyes and eyebrows are a little cold.
Jiang Fuyue walked to the old man, pulled over a chair and sat opposite him.
Their eyes met, one was calm and indifferent, while the other had an inquiring and suspicious look.
After a while, the old man asked, "Have we... met before?" He stared into her eyes, a little dazed.
Jiang Fuyue raised an eyebrow.
The old man caught her micro-expression and became even more stunned.
But the next second——
"Are you the one who treated me to rice topped with gravy the day before yesterday on Huilong Street? Or the one who was scolded by her boyfriend and made her cry loudly in Yanyu Internet Cafe last time? Or the time before that when I read your palm? Did I pay you? Probably not. I was quite rich back then, I could even add a fried egg to my rice noodles..."
Jiang Fuyue's mouth twitched.
Suddenly, the old man's gaze paused and fell on the phoenix eye bodhi beads on her wrist.
"Look familiar?" Jiang Fuyue raised his hand and shook the Bodhi tree lightly.
The old man's eyes flashed: "I'm not familiar with him."
"Then let me help you recall. About two months ago, you ate two bowls of beef noodles at a breakfast shop behind Q University. You didn't have money to pay, so a girl helped you pay. In return, you gave her this string of phoenix eye bodhi and told her to keep it with her for safety, right?"
"Why should I tell you?" He raised his chin, very proudly.
Jiang Fuyue looked at him calmly without saying a word.
The old man rolled his eyes, and seeing that the other party was unmoved, he finally became furious: "You are such a boring girl!"
Jiang Fuyue looked helpless.
A soft sigh escaped her lips, and she slowed down her tone: "So what do you want?"
Niu Rui actually heard a hint of tenderness in it.
The old man snorted softly. It was clearly exactly what he wanted, but he still acted arrogant and proud.
The next second, he suddenly pointed his finger at Niu Rui and said, "That brat used a fishing net to cover me. He has no respect for the elderly. You need to teach him a lesson. Fines and performance deductions are all necessary!"
Jiang Fuyue: "Okay."
Niu Rui: “?” Wasn’t the fishing net your idea, sister?
The old man said: "He even blocked me at the entrance of the alley and caught me like a turtle."
Jiang Fuyue: "I asked him to write a letter of guarantee."
Old man: “Hmm!”
Niu Rui: "..." As long as you are happy.
"Because of him, I was forced to abandon my teammates and became the AFK person I despised the most."
Jiang Fuyue: "I'll give you the latest skins as compensation, two sets."
"Then I'll choose it myself!" Pick the most expensive one.
"Can."
"Because of him, I didn't even get to eat the takeout I just ordered, the beef rice noodles!"
Key point: beef!
Jiang Fuyue raised her chin towards Niu Rui.
The latter turned away expressionlessly, and soon returned with a bowl of steaming hot rice noodles topped with a thick layer of beef topping. Each noodle was the size of a coin, with alternating layers of fat and lean meat, and some soft and sticky beef tendon mixed in.
Gulp——
The old man swallowed reluctantly.
But he said, "You didn't even think of adding a fried egg. You have no sincerity at all."
This time, without Jiang Fuyue's signal, Niu Rui directly picked up the chopsticks and dug into the bowl, and the bright orange fried egg immediately appeared.
"Well..." A hint of satisfaction flashed across the old man's eyes, but his expression was very forced. "Since you've brought it here, just give it to me. It's not good to waste food. Every grain is hard-earned!"
Niu Rui suppressed the twitching corners of his mouth and placed the rice noodles in front of the old man.
"You bastard, pull out a napkin!"
“…” He suspected that the ancestor was deliberately taking revenge.
The old man took the tissue, pinched a corner with his fingers, brushed it, shook it open, and then wrapped it around his neck.
He suddenly made the twenty yuan beef noodles look like a two thousand yuan Western meal.
“…”
He took out an iPad from his small schoolbag and asked, "What's the WiFi password here?"
Niu Rui: “…1971715.”
The old man laughed as he typed, "What a coincidence, it's my birthday. Hey, it's connected!"
As he spoke, he opened an APP, entered a live broadcast room, and clicked on the previous replay.
After a few seconds of buffering, a little boy with red lips and white teeth appeared on the screen and said shyly to the camera: "Hello everyone~"
After saying that, he picked up the small rice cooker and started eating.
The old man also picked up a handful of rice noodles and slurped them.
The kids inside were eating with great relish, and he enjoyed his meal even more as he watched them.
Jiang Fuyue: “?”
The old man tilted his head and noticed the confusion in her eyes, and explained, "I was watching a food show. You know food shows, right? They're livestreams of people eating!"
Jiang Fuyue: "...I know."
"Let me tell you, this kid is incredible! He can finish three rice cookers (large, medium, and small) in one sitting. I don't know if his family can afford to feed him. His appetite is just too big..."
Jiang Fuyue, one of the family members: "...It should be fine."
"If you say it's okay, then it's okay, right? Don't be a little girl and just talk nonsense. It's not good."
“…”
About a quarter of an hour later, the old man put down his chopsticks and turned off the live broadcast.
He licked his greasy lips and said, "Hiccup——"
I'm full.
During this period, Jiang Fuyue accompanied him throughout, watching him eat, watching him drink, and finally watching him make Niu Rui angry and leave.
There was no impatience or dissatisfaction at all.
"Go ahead, what do you want to ask?"
That’s right, the old man who is full is so easy to talk to.
He thought, I am really a clever guy~
I got another meal, yay!
Jiang Fuyue smiled. Actually, she didn't have anything to ask. She went through so much trouble just to stay with the old man quietly for a while, because she was not sure if she would be accepted in the future.
"Master, you really don't recognize me at all?"
She looked into his eyes and spoke each word clearly.
Ye Qianji's body suddenly stiffened, disbelief flashing in his eyes: "What did you call me?"
Jiang Fuyue: "Master."
"Little Moon?"
Only Little Moon would call him that.
The old man's lips were trembling, his hands were shaking, and there was no trace of the previous nonchalant and crazy look on his face.
"My little moon, are you back?"
He was very cautious, fearing that everything he saw was an illusion, or that he was still in a dream and couldn't distinguish reality.
Jiang Fuyue squatted at his feet, grabbed the old man's broad and warm hand, and rubbed it gently against her cheek, just like she did when she was a child.
The girl smiled and said, "Yes, I'm back."
"It's really you?! I knew that brat Lou Mingshen was lying to me. Did he hide you? Also, what's wrong with your nose, eyes, and mouth?"
Ye Qianji frowned and held her face in his hands, looking left and right: "You are not going to lie to me with the little moon, are you?"
The corners of Jiang Fuyue's eyes twitched, and the tears that had just been brewing were instantly wiped out.
"Back in Province G, you tricked a kid into giving you candy, and ended up being chased for three blocks by their parents. You finally escaped by hiding in a trash can. In City A, you set up a palm reading stall and told a girl she'd be the mistress of a man over fifty and inherit his estate in ten years. As a result, you got tea thrown in her face right there. And in Province P, you bought candied haws without paying, ate at a Western restaurant, and then you ran away like crazy, leaving me to wash dishes to pay off your debt..."
In the eyes of the world, Lou Mingyue is extremely talented and omnipotent. At the age of 22, he has already stood at the top of the altar, becoming an unsurpassed myth, and holding the power of life and death over the Lou family.
But no one knew that before she returned to the Lou family, she was just an innocent little girl.
After her mother died, she followed Ye Qianji and traveled all over the country, making the world her home. She set foot in every province and city in China, met all kinds of people, and witnessed countless separations, joys and sorrows.
Ye Qianji was poor, and she was miserable too.
Later, in order to improve their lives, she racked her brains to make money.
It is more like a study tour than a wandering.
Ye Qianji took her to see everything, and taught her by example. It is no exaggeration to say that this childhood experience played an indispensable role in Lou Mingyue's ability to inherit the Lou family after the age of eighteen and step by step reach the height of "Legend of the Imperial Capital".
During this time, she disguised herself as a man and founded the Yufeng Group as a "building student." She later adopted Long Tian and Liu Jinzhong, and even founded the S-SA academic transaction intranet on a whim...
Her first half of life was colorful because of the nightclub, and of course she also made many embarrassing mistakes.
The above are just two or three trivial things.
What's even more embarrassing is that in order to save face for the old man, she hasn't reported it yet!
"Cough cough cough..." Ye Qianji choked and coughed, "Stop it! I believe it, isn't it enough for me to believe it?"
"After twenty years, my little moon is finally back..."
The second update is here, 3,000 words.
Three more updates later~
