Xu Neng's chest heaved violently, and his eyes were red. Wang Feifei's gaze swept across his eyes, and she seemed to see a few drops of water.
What's wrong with him?
Wang Feifei recalled what she had just said, and there was nothing special about it.
How come he suddenly seems like a completely different person?
She looked worried and asked in a low voice:
Are you... feeling unwell somewhere?
At that moment, her eyes held only polite concern, nothing more.
A look of disappointment flashed in Xu Neng's eyes, but it disappeared in an instant.
Just now, I was hoping for something more, hoping she could remember everything, hoping she could call my name again...
He slowly closed his eyes, his raven-feather-like eyelashes covering these delusions. When he opened them again, he had regained his rationality and his usual indifference.
"It's nothing. I was feeling a little unwell just now, but I'm fine now."
Wang Feifei recalled how her father used to suffer greatly when his stomach problems flared up. He must have been starving for too long and had just eaten something cold, which probably irritated his stomach.
So she pushed the seafood porridge in front of Xu Neng:
"Try this. When your stomach is upset, drinking porridge will make you feel better."
Xu Neng looked at the porridge in front of him. Scattered in the white rice porridge were orange-colored shrimp and black abalone, which looked somewhat familiar.
He remembered that he had made a similar seafood porridge before.
That was the first time he truly confirmed his feelings for Feifei. After a passionate and intimate moment, he made breakfast for her.
Xu scooped out a bowlful and took a sip.
This simple bowl of porridge evoked memories of the past for him...
Seeing that his expression had returned to normal, Wang Feifei felt much relieved. Just as she was about to continue eating, she saw Xu Neng put down his chopsticks and ask with a slightly serious expression:
"What does Miss Wang think of this seafood congee?"
"This...it's alright, I've had better ones before."
Xu Neng's eyes suddenly lit up. He looked earnestly at Wang Feifei and asked somewhat anxiously:
Where did you eat?
"I think I forgot. I'll tell you next time I remember."
Wang Feifei didn't notice anything amiss and answered casually.
Xu Neng's hands trembled slightly as he secretly hid them behind the table. Overjoyed, a sudden thought struck him: perhaps Wang Feifei, like himself, had been reborn—
She had forgotten everything, but her sense of taste still held the memory!
...
After finishing her meal, Wang Feifei finally found an opportunity. She rolled down the car window and said to Xu Neng, who was about to get in:
"Now that we've finished eating, we can get a taxi. I have other things to do, so I won't keep you company any longer."
Then he stepped on the gas and drove off...
Xu Neng watched the car drive away, feeling both amused and exasperated.
Seize the opportunity and run—that's so "Wang Feifei"...
It's alright, finding Feifei's whereabouts through Xiao Liu won't be difficult. Let's take care of other important matters first!
Let's solve the travel problem first.
Xu Neng always drove German cars, but considering that a natural disaster was coming soon, he quietly bought a Mercedes-Benz and headed to Yujing City.
This time he's going to take action against Chen Nian.
Having only briefly met Chen Nian before, and barely managing to suppress his murderous intent, Xu Neng was worried that he might not be able to resist killing him on the spot to eliminate any future trouble.
Xu parked his car a short distance away and coldly observed the situation inside the supermarket.
This is an ordinary neighborhood supermarket, medium-sized, with no employees. The owner is the cashier, and his son helps out; it's a typical "family workshop."
Does Chen Nian have memories of a past life?
Xu Neng watched Chen Nian bustling about, looking like a sunny and sensible young man.
Is he a reincarnated person? Xu Neng didn't want to jump to conclusions.
Xu Neng frowned, thinking that he needed to summon Xiao Gao back to China as soon as possible. He needed to plan ahead for many things and had enough helpers.
Xu Neng waited for nearly an hour before finding an opportunity. At that moment, Chen Nian was called away from the supermarket, leaving only his father inside.
He strolled into the supermarket, grabbed a bottle of water, and paid.
This was the first time he had met Chen Nian's father, who looked somewhat like Chen Nian.
He doesn't look very old, but his hair is gray, his back is hunched, and one shoulder is higher than the other; he must have had a very hard life.
He habitually took the man's water, without even looking up, and scanned the QR code:
"Hello, Sanyuan."
How much would it cost to buy your supermarket?
Xu Neng said coldly.
"What? What do you want to buy?"
Chen Nian's father stared in astonishment, hardly believing what he was hearing.
"Name your price, supermarket."
"Are you kidding me? You want to buy this supermarket?"
Mr. Chen could hardly believe that anyone would actually buy directly from the supermarket; most normal people wouldn't do that.
He couldn't help but scrutinize the man in front of him, his gaze settling on the man's wristwatch. He had been rich before, and he knew this man wasn't just talking.
Xu Neng watched him calmly. Buying this supermarket was his first move.
This step is to address several issues:
First, if the supermarket sells out smoothly, it will be easy to get Chen Nian and his son away from Yujing City, and it would even be easy to arrange for them to go to another city.
In that case, they will never have the chance to appear in front of Wang Feifei.
At the same time, this opportunity can also be used to find out whether Chen Nian is a reborn person.
If he knew that a natural disaster would occur soon, he would not agree to sell the supermarket; on the contrary, he would try every means to hoard supplies.
Alternatively, it's possible that he knew he would be robbed and therefore went into hiding to wait for Wang Feifei to appear.
Therefore, regardless of his later actions, we can accurately grasp his true intentions and take action in advance!
This supermarket was the last link between him and Wang Feifei.
It must be cut off now!
Chen Nian's father hesitated for a long time. The cost of taking over the supermarket back then, including the goods and rent, was at most one million.
For some reason, this man insisted on buying from this supermarket.
My son needs money to get married and buy a house, and I also need money for my retirement. If I can make a profit this time, all my problems will be solved.
Moreover, the remaining money might be enough to open another small supermarket, although the location certainly wouldn't be as good as it is now.
This is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity, we must seize it!
He decided to ask for an exorbitant price, quoting two million:
"If you're really serious about buying, it'll cost at least two million."
The price surprised Xu Neng. He took a closer look at the middle-aged man and saw that he was indeed shrewd as a businessman.
However, this mere two million had almost no impact on Xu Neng; his goal in everything he did was "speed"—
He resolved all the problems quickly enough to create a safe house for him and Feifei.
Before that, all the troubles need to be resolved.
“Sure,” Xu Neng replied.
Chen Nian's father looked at the man in surprise. They'd reached an agreement so quickly? It was hard to believe; it felt as simple as buying a vegetable.
"Hehe... Sir, you're very straightforward! Would you like some of the goods in this supermarket?"
“Yes,” Xu Neng replied.
"No way!" Chen Nian rushed in from outside the door.
