"These bastards are really ruthless, little brother. If you ask me, this is all your fault. It's that broken piece of iron you hid under the bed. There are all kinds of it in the underground palace. But now I know why you put a broken piece of iron under the bed."
Zhang Qiling stopped eating the banana and turned his head to look at the fat man. He wanted to hear what the fat man had to say.
Sure enough, the fat man continued to complain: "It's just to remind myself that place is dangerous and I can't go there!"
"Okay Fatty, it's not the young man's fault. He hasn't remembered everything yet." Wuxie said.
Ji Huaichuan also responded: "That's right, how can I blame my baby for this!"
Then he handed Zhang Qiling a banana. Zhang Qiling looked at Ji Huaichuan and slowly reached out to take it.
The fat man slowly turned over and said to Ji Huaichuan, "Well, how dare I blame you when you're here? What I mean is, since we all know that the entrance is in the underground palace, let's seize the opportunity and quickly go back to search the underground palace. Come! Help me up, I'll go and arrange for my discharge myself."
As he spoke, the fat man's voice weakened and even trembled. Wu Xie reached out and patted the fat man's raised arm, saying, "Don't be so cocky. Your injury hasn't healed yet, so stay in the hospital and recuperate. What if something goes wrong again when you return to Banai?"
"Can you please hope that I get better? Besides, I've been out injured for so many days, Yun Cai should be worried about me." The fat man turned his head to look at Wu Xie.
Ji Huaichuan sat down next to Zhang Qiling, looked at the fat man with a malicious smile, and said to Wuxie, "It's okay to get discharged from the hospital. After that, we'll go have a good meal and then set off for Banai."
The fat man's eyes lit up when he heard this, "Why, Xiao Chuan'er treats us?"
"Then... can you guys still afford the meal money now?" Ji Huaichuan's question was quite hurtful, and the fat man shut his mouth awkwardly.
It was almost afternoon when Zhang Qiling finished the discharge procedures, and he finally got rid of his hospital gown and changed back into his own black hoodie.
As soon as I walked out of the hospital, I saw a black Cayenne parked steadily at the door. A man got out of the car, and it was Ji Huaichuan.
The fat man looked at his handsome figure in the rearview mirror and asked, "Xiao Chuan'er, where did you get this car?"
"I bought this car when I came to Beijing last time. If you like it, I'll give you a new one. I've driven this one before, so it's hard to give it to you." Ji Huaichuan stuffed Zhang Qiling into the passenger seat and said casually to the fat man.
Wu Xie and Fatty sat in the back seat one after the other. Fatty chuckled and said, "I can't bear to ask you to spend money on this. When I become rich, I will go buy one right away."
Ji Huaichuan took control of the steering wheel and drove out of the hospital. After getting on the road, he sent Fatty a mobile phone number and said, "Okay, call this number when you pick up the car. I'll reimburse you."
The fat man was so moved that tears welled up in his eyes. He pretended to sob and said, "Chuan'er, you are my brother for life. If it weren't for you, I would hug you and kiss you to express my gratitude!"
"Don't do that. We should not repay kindness with evil." Ji Huaichuan looked in the rearview mirror and smiled.
Not long after, the car drove to the entrance of the Crescent Hotel. Ji Huaichuan asked a few people to get out of the car and walked to the hotel entrance. He casually threw the keys to the parking attendant at the door and took a few people into the Crescent Hotel.
It wasn't until they entered the private room that the fat man whispered, "I've heard the Crescent Hotel is quite impressive, and it's indeed quite good."
After they sat down, the waiter handed over the menu. Ji Huaichuan handed the menu to Wuxie and signaled them to order. Wuxie took the menu hesitantly. The fat man also came over curiously and couldn't help gasping as soon as he opened it.
The fat man flipped a page and snorted. Wu Xie glanced at the menu carefully, gritted his teeth and whispered, "A pot of tea costs 7,000 yuan, why don't you just go and rob it?"
"What a great place. Chuan'er, why don't we go to another one?" the fat man complained in a low voice.
Ji Huaichuan took the menu from Wu Xie's hand, glanced at it, and said, "It's okay. A pot of Taiping Monkey King, Pearl Seafood Clams, Yuntuo Eight Fresh, Prince's Roast Duck, Spicy Crab, Jade Pear and Tripe Core, Palace Assorted Begonia Collection, Lantern Shadow Beef, Crispy Black Sea Cucumber with Shrimp Roe, White-Cut Chicken, Stir-fried Three Bald Heads, and a bowl of porridge."
The waiter took the menu and left the room. After a while, some of the dishes were served. Fatty and Wuxie looked at the dishes being placed on the table and couldn't help but ask, "Chuan'er, are you rich?"
"No, what's wrong?" Ji Huaichuan picked up a piece of lotus seed cake and stuffed it into Zhang Qiling's mouth.
"Then why did you bring us here to eat? And order so many dishes?" Wuxie asked.
Ji Huaichuan waved his hand and said, "Isn't this how we usually eat? Lately, I've been ordering dishes from Louwailou. I haven't eaten from Xinyue Restaurant in a while. Today, I just added some porridge to my meal."
Fatty and Wuxie turned to look at Zhang Qiling at the same time, and saw Zhang Qiling nodded slightly, which was considered as tacit agreement. Fatty paused for a moment, and suddenly asked: "Chuan'er, do you still need a driver, the kind with meals provided?"
After hearing this, Wu Xie adjusted his glasses speechlessly. He hadn't expected the fat man to be this kind of person. He then said to Ji Huaichuan, "I'm a safe driver, I have a driver's license, and I'm always available!"
Ji Huaichuan paused holding the chopsticks and smiled, "Let's eat first."
While they were talking, all the dishes were served. Ji Huaichuan didn't eat much himself, but he fed Zhang Qiling a lot, which made Wuxie and Fatty eat a lot of dog food.
During the meal, several people also booked plane tickets and arrived in Banai, Agui's yard around the afternoon.
"Hiss! Ouch!"
"Now you feel the pain. It's your fault for coming back without healing your wound." Yun Cai carefully applied medicine to the fat man with a cotton swab.
The fat man groaned, "I thought it was all healed, but it still hurts a little. But it's okay, I'm strong and healthy, so this little injury is just a drop in the bucket!"
Ji Huaichuan, who was leaning on the stairs, couldn't help laughing. "Sister Yuncai, our Fatty rushed back from the capital before his injury healed. He was afraid that you would worry about him, so he personally went to handle the discharge procedures. You can't stop him, so you have to persuade him."
When Yun Cai heard this, she glanced at the fat man and said softly, "Okay, this time you should take good care of your injuries and stop running around. Listen to me."
"Okay! I'll listen to you!" the fat man replied with a smile.
Just as he finished bandaging the wound, Aning came in with two people. The fat man buttoned his clothes and shouted, "Hey, hey, hey, stand there and don't move. Miss Aning, why are you here?"
Zhang Qiling silently drew out his dagger and blocked Ji Huaichuan behind him. Wu Xie, who was standing at the door, had his eyes slightly brightened and asked, "Why are you still here?"
Aning curled her lips and smiled, saying, "Our boss knows you're back and wants to see you."
On the way, Aning approached Wuxie inconspicuously and whispered something, which made Wuxie's pupils tremble and look at Aning. However, Aning didn't say anything more and quickened her pace to walk forward.
