Yi Mu looked surprised, not understanding why Zeng Guangzhao would be interested in having dinner at his house.
He glanced at the various expressions on the faces of the high-ranking officers around him and sneered, "I think we should do it another day. All the officers are here today..."
Before he could finish speaking, Zeng Guangzhao had already taken the heavy camera from his hand, grabbed his arm, and led him outside.
"Hurry up, I'm starving."
Amidst the stunned silence of the officers, Yi Mu was led out of the military headquarters by Zeng Guangzhao, who was pulling him by the arm.
When Zeng Guangzhao and Yi Mu arrived at Yi's house, they found that all the adults had gone out on business, leaving only his niece and brother at home.
There are few people in the family, so we prepared a small amount of food. My little niece is a picky eater and was gnawing on a sugar figurine. Young Master Qisheng is always frugal, so there was only one dish on the table: stir-fried shredded pork with green peppers and egg drop soup.
This dish is far too meager for such distinguished guests.
Yi Mu immediately ordered someone to instruct the kitchen to prepare more dishes.
He is very skilled at entertaining people.
He quickly ordered someone to prepare tea and hot water for washing his hands.
Although Qisheng had always followed his father in doing business, he still longed to be a soldier.
While Yi Mu went upstairs to change his clothes, Qi Sheng approached Zeng Guangzhao and carefully examined the badge on his shoulder. After seeing it clearly, he looked at Zeng Guangzhao with admiration in his eyes.
"Brother Zeng, you're amazing!"
Zeng Guangzhao smiled and handed him the coat behind him: "Here, you can borrow it for a while and have some fun."
Unable to resist the temptation, Qisheng immediately put on the coat and went to the yard to show it off.
My little niece sat at the table, eating her sweet cake.
Zeng Guangzhao still had some memory of this little girl; she was very clever and mischievous when she was only three or four years old.
"Do you like cake?" Zeng Guangzhao asked the little girl like a strange uncle.
The little girl glanced at him and nodded.
Zeng Guangzhao said, "From now on, when I come to your house, I'll bring you a cake, okay?"
The little girl is a foodie, and right now, fragrant and soft cakes are all she wants.
She nodded and held up her little finger, afraid that Zeng Guangzhao might change his mind.
"Let's pinky swear."
Zeng Guangzhao smiled and beckoned to her with his finger, then suddenly asked, "What does your uncle usually like to eat?"
Because the little girl loves to eat, she knows her family's preferences very well.
"My uncle likes to eat vegetables, but not meat. He prefers light flavors and doesn't like spicy food because it makes him feel hot. He also likes bananas and oranges, but hates apples the most. Once, someone tricked him into eating one, and his face scrunched up..."
Zeng Guangzhao recalled the apple he had peeled that day, which Yi Mu hadn't touched until he left.
He thought Yimu had forgotten, but he didn't expect that he just hated eating it.
Zeng Guangzhao learned a lot from his little niece, including what Yi Mu usually liked to do at home.
Only after hearing Yi Mu's footsteps did Zeng Guangzhao pat his little niece's head and tell her that this was a secret between the two of them and that she couldn't tell anyone else, or the cake would be gone.
The kitchen brought out the prepared dishes, and Zeng Guangzhao paid attention to Yi Mu's preferences, thinking that he could cater to them next time.
After lunch, Yi Mu was going to the photo studio to get the photos developed. Zeng Guangzhao happened to have nothing to do in the afternoon, so he offered to go with him.
Yi Mu assumed he was worried about the photos, so he agreed.
The two had just arrived at the photo studio and opened the door when suddenly a group of people dressed in black Zhongshan suits surged out of the street.
They were armed and had cold expressions. They approached Yimu and said sternly, "We suspect you have ties to the Communist Party. Come with us."
With Zeng Guangzhao standing by, how could he possibly stand by and watch them take Yi Mu away?
