"Damn, are you a reincarnated starving ghost?"
Ye Cheng stopped caring and started eating after opening a bottle of beer.
The razor clam meat is tender and fragrant. It's so soft and satisfying to take a bite. Pair it with a sip of ice-cold beer and the flavor is simply amazing.
Both of them knew each other well, so they naturally started by eating the more expensive and less expensive dishes. As a result, by the time they finished the razor clams, the three dishes next to them were still untouched.
Next up were the swimming crabs. To prevent Xiao Hu from eating too much, Ye Cheng simply cut the crabs in half.
When eating crabs, you have to take your time, not wolf them down like Little Tiger.
Just as Ye Cheng was thinking of relaxing and enjoying the meal, his phone suddenly rang. He glanced at it and saw it was Song Zhiyong calling.
"I'm going to answer a phone call."
After saying that, Ye Cheng picked up the phone and went outside to answer it, where the signal was good.
"Hey, Captain Song, are you that busy?"
“What do you think? We caught the core members, and then we swept through the surrounding areas. They were in almost every village in your township, and we caught them all.” Song Zhiyong’s tone was full of joy.
"What, you called me about He Feiyang, right? He's fine now, you can come pick him up tomorrow."
"Oh, okay, then I'll come pick him up first thing tomorrow morning." That's good news; I'll have to tell Aunt Qian and the others about it later.
"By the way, Captain Song, I wanted to ask about the money for the items that were lost this time. Can we get a refund?"
There was a moment of silence on the other end of the phone, then the tone softened.
"Well, Ye Cheng, we're all on the same side, so I'll be honest with you. We've recovered most of the money, but we've also suffered losses. So the bureau will be holding a meeting today to discuss how to refund the money. There will definitely be losses."
This situation was within Ye Cheng's expectations; how could he not suffer any losses after making a mistake?
"However, from what Director Zhou said, it's probably divided into two parts. One part is the money that hasn't been used yet, which we'll return to the original source, including the money we seized from He Feiyang last time. But the money that has already been deposited into the company's account will probably have to be shared equally by everyone."
"Okay, at least we've recovered a lot of the losses. I'll come pick them up tomorrow. It would be best if we could get the money back at the same time."
"Don't worry, you can definitely collect the money tomorrow. We'll have someone come with you then."
After making that call, Ye Cheng felt much more at ease.
"Xiao Hu, go tell Aunt Qian..."
Ye Cheng turned to ask Xiao Hu to tell Aunt Qian, but he immediately noticed that the swimming crab on the table only had one leg left.
"Damn it, are you a pig?" Ye Cheng quickly jumped back to his seat and ate the remaining leg first.
"Brother, these swimming crabs are delicious." Little Tiger said proudly.
"Get lost, next time I'll eat alone again."
Damn it, you have to guard against thieves every day.
"Alright, hurry up and go tell Aunt Qian that we're going to pick up Feiyang tomorrow."
"Oh." Little Tiger wiped his mouth, quickly got up and went out.
Taking advantage of the time, Ye Cheng quickly picked out a snail to eat. Snails were expensive, and knowing Xiao Hu's nature, he would definitely eat the snail first.
The snail looked incredibly strong, but as soon as Ye Cheng put it in his mouth, he realized something was wrong.
grass!
It was really overcooked.
It's too hard to bite.
You need to have good teeth to do this.
So Ye Cheng decisively pushed the snail in front of Xiao Hu, and then put the clam in front of herself.
Clams are better; there's no issue with cooking time.
Little Tiger returned quickly, panting heavily.
"Are you flirting with girls? Why are you running so fast?"
"If you don't run faster, you'll eat it all!"
"How could that be? Who do you think I am? Look, I didn't even touch the most expensive conch; I've been eating the cheaper clams."
Little Tiger took a look and realized it was true.
He scratched his head a little embarrassedly.
"Brother, you're so particular."
"That's right, hurry up and have one."
"Eh."
As Xiao Hu spoke, he picked out a conch shell, put it in his mouth, and took a crunchy bite. His face immediately changed.
"Brother, what you're cooking is a rock!"
...
The two thoroughly enjoyed their drinks and went straight to sleep afterward.
Ye Cheng hadn't felt this dejected in a long time.
The next morning, before Ye Cheng even got up, he heard Aunt Qian calling from outside the door.
"Acheng, Acheng."
Ye Cheng jumped up, rubbed his eyes, and came out. When he saw it was Aunt Qian, he immediately understood why she had come.
"Oh dear, it's only 6 o'clock."
Aunt Qian said with an embarrassed expression,
"If you go earlier, Fei Yang can come out sooner."
"Auntie, do you think this is a vegetable market? Go early and come out early. The police also work on time."
"Then...wouldn't going earlier mean we can get a turn sooner?"
Forehead...
Ye Cheng was helpless; he could tell that Aunt Qian wanted to see her son as soon as possible.
"Okay, Auntie, I'll leave right away. I'll call you as soon as I pick you up, okay?"
"Thank you, Cheng. Come back, come back to my house for dinner." Aunt Qian went back home happily.
This mother is really something; she worries about her child from a young age and she worries about her whole life.
Ye Cheng understood. He washed his face and rode his motorcycle to Xiao Hu's place.
As soon as I entered, I saw Little Tiger's father sitting in the yard picking vegetables.
"Uncle, where's Xiaohu?"
"Ah Cheng is here. He's still asleep. What's up? Are you going out to sea today? I didn't hear him mention it."
"It's not going out to sea, it's going to pick up Fei Yang. It's alright, Uncle, you can continue. I'll go in and call him."
Ye Cheng was familiar with Xiao Hu's house, so he went straight in. As soon as he entered, he heard loud snoring.
Damn, this is so comfortable.
He kicked the door open and shouted,
"Police raid!"
Little Tiger sat up abruptly, looking panicked.
"Police? What kind of room check? I..."
Once he realized it was Ye Cheng, Xiao Hu said with annoyance,
"Brother, don't scare people, okay?"
"Hey, so you're really on edge about the police checking rooms? What were you dreaming about? Were you thinking about women?"
Tiger's mother suddenly appeared from behind and said quietly,
"It would be good if he wanted a woman. I've asked him to go on blind dates several times, but he refuses."
"It's alright, Auntie. He just hasn't found the right one yet. If he does, I'll make sure you have two children in three years."
"That's good. You can talk to him more often, or take him to a foot massage place to see what it's like. But don't let him do anything dirty."
Ye Cheng and Xiao Hu stared at Xiao Hu's mother with wide eyes.
"Auntie, you know about this?"
"Tch, how many women working outside do this nowadays? Do you think your aunt doesn't know?"
"You're amazing! I'll definitely take him next time!"
Ye Cheng gave Little Tiger's mother a thumbs up.
Foot massage, you know, her father is a gambler, her mother is sick, her younger brother is young, and she's sensible—if you don't help her, who will?
It's a place you should visit, not necessarily to do anything, but to get a sense of it.
