Chapter 411 Child Abduction
As long as I can leave safely alive, I will not hesitate even if it means taking advantage of others.
This is Chen Zhuyi’s value.
Mu Yun followed Eric, and his hands may have been stained with the blood of his compatriots. He was ruthless, and although for some reason he had a little tenderness for them, this in itself was a time bomb.
"Okay, then let's invite him to dinner later." Huo Jinzhi immediately understood and agreed.
What could shake Mu Yun was never their similarities, but the meal that Huo Jinzhi prepared when they first met.
The fact that he chose to hold the negotiations in a restaurant and tempted people with delicious food and wealth proved what he valued most in his heart.
Chen Zhuyi hadn't reacted yet and blinked a little confusedly. After returning home, he still obediently followed the rented kitchen and helped.
In the evening, the delicious meal was ready.
Because the local pork was not very good, Chen Zhuyi and the others could only take out the bacon they brought with them, and smuggled some from the space.
When Mo Cuilin smelled the fragrance, he seemed to be bewitched and floated in directly. He was also surprised by the things on the table.
"Are you planning to entertain guests today?"
He looked around and saw some good wine, which made him even more envious. He sat down and refused to leave.
"I can drink quite well, so just consider me here to help with the drinking."
The people outside also smelled the odor, but they didn't have the courage to get close, so they could only smell the odor and eat their meals with white steamed buns.
"Then I'll go and invite the guests." Chen Zhu grabbed Mo Cuilin's collar and pushed him out in a rather vulgar manner: "We don't need any guests."
Given Mu Yun's personality, he probably couldn't accept a stranger appearing here.
Even though Mo Cuilin howled like a ghost, he couldn't change Chen Zhuyi's current mood. He could only be stared at with contempt by his subordinates.
After sending the troublemaker away, Chen Zhuyi also headed towards where Mu Yun usually took his brothers, and stopped in front of a man: "Where is your boss?"
"What?" The man pretended to be stupid, looked up at the sky, and smelled the fragrance in the air. He could only grit his teeth.
"Don't play dumb, where is Mu Yun?" Chen Zhuyi bluntly exposed his identity: "Last time we had dinner together, you seemed to be the one who served the food."
The man who had wanted to fight to the end sighed and lowered his head, saying reluctantly: "I don't know..."
"I don't like hearing lies. If it happens again... I can kill you." Chen Zhuyi warned with a smile.
She wouldn't kill anyone, but by relying on Huo Jinzhi's aura, she wouldn't have any problem taking advantage of him.
The man shuddered, turned around and left covered in dust. Not long after, Mu Yun, who smelled a little of alcohol, came over.
He was still conscious and was extremely puzzled by Chen Zhuyi's intention to find him. He took the initiative to ask, "What's the matter?"
"Can't I just chat with you if there's nothing wrong?" Chen Zhu went straight to the point, pulled his coat, and led him into the room.
"I made something delicious, I hope you can come and taste it."
The people behind looked at the boss jealously, wishing they could be the lucky one. That kind of resentment lingered around Mu Yun like a shadow.
His eyelids twitched, but looking at Chen Zhuyi's back, he actually felt that it was a good idea not to refuse.
"Why...why did you invite me to dinner?" Mu Yun couldn't help but ask.
If they are not even friends, how can they eat at the same table?
"It's just a meal. It's just a matter of an extra pair of chopsticks. He and I are going to eat anyway, so it's not a big deal to bring you along." Chen Zhu waved his hand indifferently and stated his position directly.
It was this familiar tone that made Mu Yun even more reluctant to let go. He pursed his lips into a straight line and followed him in.
The room was filled with the aroma of food, which enveloped Mu Yun. Even the coldness on his body seemed to dissipate a little, as if he had returned to the warm home in his memory.
Although what happened afterwards was not pleasant, the warmth that Mu Yun received from his family was something he would never forget in his life.
Even when life was tough, my father would take the initiative to cook breakfast for my mother, and the two of them would always tacitly choose the nutritious food for him.
If there was only one egg left in the house, it would be his.
But why... did Mom and Dad want to sell him?
Mu Yun was completely immersed in his own emotions and sniffed again.
But the tempering here over the years has made his character different from that of ordinary people. Soon, he forced himself to calm down and put on that cold mask again.
"Don't think... I will let you go just because you treat me to a meal." Mu Yun's voice was still cold.
"It's just a meal, do you really need to treat me?" Chen Zhu tutted and put a chicken drumstick in his bowl with his chopsticks: "The ingredients here are not very good. We have tried our best to reproduce the flavor of our hometown."
In fact, this was just a layer of insurance. Chen Zhuyi specially took out those things from the space to cook, all of which were hometown flavors.
Mu Yun took two bites and felt that it was different from what he had eaten before, but he did not say anything and just ate in silence.
"Although I don't know when you came here, but judging from your status here, it should be no less than ten years." Chen Zhuyi hesitated a little and took the initiative to open the topic.
Mu Yun was eating braised pork. To him, these were all delicacies he had never tasted before. He paused and unpacked their conversation: "Want to explore my past? And influence me at the same time?"
The sarcasm in his tone could not be suppressed at all.
Even Chen Zhuyi didn't know how to calm him down for a moment, so he could only look at Huo Jinzhi.
"That's about right. For us, having a friend who can help is always better than having an enemy, isn't it?" Huo Jinzhi went straight to the point.
People who live on the edge of a knife don't need others to spy on their actions too much. Such ruthless people need straightforward communication.
"But we can't be friends." Mu Yun relaxed, seeming to appreciate Huo Jinzhi's decisiveness. "Besides, I was abandoned by my parents. I have to rely on my own hard work. As for that... I just feel disgusted!"
He gazed calmly towards the east with a complex expression, perhaps even he himself could not tell the difference between love and hate.
"Haven't you ever thought that they also have their own reasons?" Chen Zhuyi reminded him dimly, "Even now, there are still many cases of child trafficking."
