Yan Jiu said, "Wait until I finish eating."
She wouldn't let the food get cold for two foreigners; that would be disrespectful to the food.
Hongyu stood there, stunned.
They were all so polite.
Why doesn't Yan Jiu put down his chopsticks? Is food more important than them?
A rich kid who grew up with a silver spoon in his mouth.
I've never been treated with such coldness before.
He got angrier the more he thought about it.
But I managed to hold back several times.
Because Lao Cao told him that Yan Jiu and Lang Zongyi were extraordinary, and if he could befriend them and gain their trust and help, he would thrive in Country Z.
But.
Approaching with a purpose.
Is there a chance we'll become friends?
Just as Hongyu was wondering.
After Yan Jiu finished eating, she said, "If any family member needs to hold a funeral, I'm always welcome."
Hongyu retorted angrily, "Can't you speak properly?"
Old Cao stopped Hongyu: "Young Master, don't be rude. Director Yan is not wrong."
Hongyu knew, of course, that Yan Jiu was right.
He's not stupid.
He wasn't unaware that his father's bone cancer was in its late stages, and that current medical technology simply couldn't produce a miracle.
But Hongyu just didn't want to hear about a funeral in his family. His compromise to go home was also a form of escapism, an escape from the fact that his biological father was suffering from an illness.
Hongyu calmed himself down and said slowly, "Something went missing from my house, and I would like to ask you all for help."
Lang Zongyi kindly reminds you: "If you lose something, contact the police."
Hongyu wanted to say that they had looked for them.
But it didn't work.
The thief left no trace whatsoever.
It doesn't look like it was done by human hands at all.
Yan Jiu declared beforehand: "I will not get involved in anything other than funerals."
She has a lot of things to deal with.
I don't want to take on any work proactively.
Whether he's the world's richest man or from a mafia family, he's not even on her radar.
Old Cao didn't dare to think he could get help from the very beginning; anyone they couldn't find in their investigation must be extraordinary.
They will definitely not lack money.
No amount of money can convince people.
This moment.
An unsolvable problem lingered over Lao Cao and Hong Yu's heads.
