Xia Chujian knew very well that it was Zong Ruoan who helped.
She wondered in her heart, which title is more useful for Zong Ruoan, the colonel of the Special Security Bureau or the young master of Zong’s Military Industry?
In short, they are all better than the name of their team.
Never mind, as long as I can eat.
They were led by Boss Yi to a particularly elegant private room.
Here, looking out the window, the dazzling night view of Ofu County is right in front of you, like a perfect decorative painting.
Because right across from here is the landmark building of Ofu County, Kirishikaku.
It was a fifty-meter-high seven-story pagoda building, consisting of seven floors and an entirely wooden structure.
The black roof, white walls and red window frames give it a solemn and elegant feel.
The doors of each floor of the pagoda are decorated with exquisite paintings based on myths and legends.
At night, the lights in Wushi Pavilion are turned on, creating a strange hazy feeling.
The pond in front of the building was shimmering, reflecting the moonlight in the sky.
Xia Chujian said with emotion: "This is what they call 'the fog has obscured the towers and the moon has obscured the ferry'. It's so beautiful..."
"Ms. Xia, that's a brilliant idea! This is exactly how the name Wushige came about." Boss Yi graciously invited them to a seat and introduced them, "We've specially imported a special kind of beef from Mulan City to entertain our distinguished guests tomorrow. It's called unicorn beef, roasted in a charcoal brick stove thousands of years old. Would you like to try it?"
"Is it the unicorn beef produced in the exotic beast forest of Mulan City?" Ye Shijie's eyes became hot.
He did not forget that in the Forest of Strange Beasts, when his mental strength was severely damaged, it was Unicorn who pulled him back from the brink of collapse!
Boss Yi smiled and patted his big belly. He said, "Of course, this kind of beef is only produced in the Exotic Beast Forest in Mulan City! It's not produced anywhere else!"
He then shook his head regretfully and said, "It's a pity that the humanoid slaves in Mulan City caused a big commotion a while ago, causing the city to be closed. We've also run out of black truffle wild rhinoceros here. Otherwise, you could have eaten that, which would be even more delicious than unicorn beef!"
The five members of the team also showed nostalgic expressions when they thought of the delicious black truffle black rhino.
After the boss of Yishaka introduced the local delicacies to them, he walked out with his back hunched.
After he left, Ye Shijie immediately asked Xia Chujian: "Colonel Zong from the Special Security Bureau? How did he know we were here?"
Xia Chujian had no choice but to say, "Just now, Colonel Zong asked me for something. I told him I was in Dafu County and mentioned that I was complaining about this restaurant requiring reservations a month in advance..."
Li Fu and Song Mingqian both had a slight glint in their eyes.
Even Ping Qiong noticed something was different.
She looked at Xia Chujian and said to smooth things over, "It seems that Colonel Zong is indeed a good person, kind and likes to help others, hahahaha!"
Her heartless laughter eased Xia Chujian's embarrassment.
Li Fu also said, "I want to try the unicorn beef here today! Isn't it better than what Xiao Chujian makes?"
Song Mingqian shook his long bangs and said solemnly, "I don't think it's as delicious as Aunt Xia's!"
It would have been fine if he hadn't mentioned Xia Yuanfang, but he just kept saying whatever he said.
Xia Chujian just curled the corners of her mouth when she realized that her quantum optical brain had received another message.
She looked down and saw that it was really her aunt this time.
[Xia Yuanfang]: First time meeting you, where are you?
Xia Chujian replied quickly.
[Xia Chujian]: Aunt, I am already in Dafu County.
As she spoke, she turned on the video call, let Xia Yuanfang see her current location, and asked the team members to greet Xia Yuanfang.
Everyone gathered together and waved to Xia Yuanfang on the virtual display screen.
Xia Yuanfang breathed a sigh of relief when he saw that he was indeed with his team members.
She smiled and said, "It's my fault. I went out all day and just came back today. Otherwise, if you had told me in person when you first met me, I wouldn't have had to follow you via video."
Xia Chujian felt very guilty.
She didn't dare to face Xia Yuanfang, so she left a note and sneaked out.
Now that Xia Yuanfang apologized first, she felt even more embarrassed.
Xia Chujian murmured, "Aunt, it's my fault. I should have told you before I left."
Xia Yuanfang knew that Xia Chujian didn't dare to tell him directly, so he didn't expose her. He smiled and changed the subject: "Is your mission dangerous this time?"
Ye Shijie said hurriedly: "It's not dangerous, don't worry, Aunt Xia, even if we are secretly acting as bodyguards for a noble lady, we will not appear in public."
It turns out that he was indeed going to be a bodyguard, not to kill people.
It can be seen that when Xia Chu saw the note, Xia Yuanfang did not completely believe it.
Because this child has learned to "report good news but not bad news."
Xia Yuanfang breathed a sigh of relief, his expression even more relaxed. He said, "That's good, but even as a bodyguard, you still have to pay attention to safety. Wait for you to come back. Oh, when will you come back?"
Ye Shijie said: "This mission happens to be on New Year's Eve. The earliest we can return to Mulan City is on the 1st, which is New Year's Day."
Xia Yuanfang smiled and said, "No problem, come to my house for the New Year, I'll make you something delicious."
"Aunt Xia is so nice! We will definitely come!" Song Mingqian and Ping Qiong cheered together.
Ye Shijie also said that he would go, but Li Fu just laughed and didn't say whether he would come or not.
Xia Yuanfang didn't care. She was just being polite.
The Beichen Empire does not have a lunar calendar, only the Gregorian calendar.
The New Year here is just like the Spring Festival in her previous world. It lasts for fifteen days and is a time for family reunions.
She wouldn't force anyone to visit her home.
