Chapter 455 One can imagine how angry Xie Jingmo was.
Fu Hai's blood completely stopped flowing because of this laugh.
He turned his head slowly in disbelief.
Then--
I saw him after two years, with a mouthful of sinister white teeth——
Lieutenant General Gao.
Fu Hai: “…”
Deputy General Gao held Fu Hai's collar with one hand and said with a forced smile, "General Manager Fu Hai, long time no see."
Fu Hai wanted to escape, but the front and back were suddenly filled with people, and he was surrounded and couldn't get in or out.
"Gao... Lieutenant General Gao..." Fu Hai had no choice but to smile apologetically, "Long time no see."
Deputy General Gao said, "You're in trouble," and then dragged the man in front of Xie Jingmo.
When Fu Hai saw Xie Jingmo, he subconsciously wanted to kneel down.
But he heard the man sneer without even raising his eyelashes. Fu Hai paused and heard Xie Jingmo say coldly, "After two years, Eunuch Fu Hai has become polite. What? You still recognize me?"
Fu Hai swallowed, "You...are joking. I remember that, of course." It was not convenient to expose Xie Jingmo's identity in public, so Fu Hai could only smile and say, "What brings you here today?"
Fu Hai tried to get Yun Zhao out.
"Thank you... um, my lord. I escaped from the palace and was all alone, so I opened a shop here. Could you please have pity on me, a rootless person, and not bother me about running away, okay?"
These words made Xie Jingmo laugh out of anger.
He nodded and looked at Fu Hai. "How dare I argue with you, Fu Hai? You're so powerful." Xie Jingmo looked around the elegant restaurant. "You mean, you opened this restaurant by yourself? Did you escape here alone?"
Fu Hai glanced at the sky outside and prayed in his heart that Yun Zhao would not come back today.
He mustered up his courage and chuckled, "Yes, I was originally going to leave with the master, but we got separated after leaving the palace. Now I'm the only one managing this place, trying to earn some money. Is your Excellency visiting me now, incognito? Or is there something else going on?"
Deputy General Gao was filled with anger. It was already this time, and he still wanted to hide it?
But when I heard what Fu Hai said was true, I became worried that Yun Zhao was really not here.
He frowned and was about to speak when he heard Xie Jingmo say "Oh", "You are the only one here, it is really hard."
Xie Jingmo looked around and his eyes fell on an ice jar not far away. Yun Zhao was good in every way except that he loved the coolness.
Back when I was in the palace, I once said that if I had to leave one day, the thing I would most want to take with me would be this ice mirror.
Xie Jingmo forced a smile and said to Fu Hai, who was trembling with fear and felt that his defense was about to break, "I was handling some official business and happened to pass by. He said that your food is good."
Fu Hai breathed a sigh of relief when he heard this.
He knew that Xie Jingmo would not bother with him about his escape. Now all he had to do was prepare good food and send the person off properly.
As long as Yun Zhao doesn't come back today, he won't be exposed.
Fu Hai said with a smile: "People from all over the country really say that my restaurant is good. So you and the lieutenants have a seat. I'll be right back."
Fu Hai said as he went to the kitchen.
Deputy General Gao followed him in directly without saying a word, with his arms folded, staring at Fu Hai closely.
Fu Hai nearly cut his hand several times. "Hey, Deputy General Gao, stop staring at me like that. Why don't you go out and have a rest? The food will be ready soon."
Deputy General Gao didn't say anything either, but tilted his head slightly with an expression that said, "I'll see what tricks you can play today."
Fu Hai groaned inwardly.
He turned his head and looked at the servant standing at the door. As the servant was receiving the dishes, he whispered, "Go tell the master that the restaurant is full tonight and ask her not to come back."
Fu Hai is confident and smart like Yun Zhao. As long as you say this, she will definitely be able to hear it!
The servant hurried out.
Then--
When he reached the county lady's house, he was intercepted by someone.
When Xie Jingmo's men came back, they whispered to him, "We went to the local county lord's house."
Xie Jingmo frowned.
The man added, "The county lord here is hereditary and her name is Chenxiang."
Xie Jingmo's deep eyes relaxed, "Girl?"
The man nodded, "Yes."
Xie Jingmo no longer had any unhappy emotions. He picked up the wine pot, looked at Fu Hai who came from the kitchen to bring tea, and said to the deputy general beside him: "I see, you can go and have dinner."
Fu Hai served the dishes with a smile. Before leaving, he looked eagerly outside the restaurant.
I didn't see the servant come back, and I felt a little uneasy.
Deputy General Gao ate his meal and looked at Fu Hai's reaction, sneering, "This guy has shifty eyes."
Xie Jingmo didn't say anything.
The food is quite tasty and the surrounding environment is also good.
He heard that the rightmost area on the second floor was the owner's private area, and he went up to take a look.
It is elegant, comfortable and everything is of the best quality.
Even the tea is the best quality Longjing tea after rain.
The couch is soft, the material is exquisite and beautiful, and it is clean and tidy.
Deputy General Gao had just come out of the kitchen, smelling of medicine. It seemed that Yun Zhao was still recovering.
As the shopkeeper still has the mind to go out and play, it seems that Fu Hai takes good care of her.
Xie Jingmo was no longer anxious. He felt that most of his illness had healed.
Fu Hai came out from the back again with the dishes, and asked with a low smile, "Sir, you are here on official business. When will you leave?"
Xie Jingmo was eating.
Deputy General Gao put his hands on the table and asked him, "Why? Do you really want us to leave quickly?"
"No, of course not," Fu Hai explained immediately, "The spring bamboo shoots, rain-soaked mushrooms, and fat fish from Litang are all delicious here. I thought if you have nothing else to do, you could stay a little longer and enjoy the food."
"But I also know that you are very busy and it is impossible for you to stay here for long, so I just feel regretful."
Who is Fu Hai? The head eunuch in the palace, a bundle of beautiful women.
If you say it really hard, it can drown someone.
But I didn't expect that some people would take the nice words as the truth.
"Really? Since Shopkeeper Fu has invited me so kindly, I should stay for a few more days." As Fu Hai's pupils trembled, Xie Jingmo said to Deputy General Gao, "Tell the people outside that those who have matters to attend to at home should go back after dinner, and those who don't should stay and enjoy the fat fish from Litang."
Fu Hai: “…”
Fu Hai: "Hahaha! Your Excellency...how generous!"
Fu Hai went back to the kitchen with tears on his face.
Deputy General Gao laughed heartily in the back, then turned to Xie Jingmo and said, "He's at the county lady's house. Do you want to send someone to bring him back?"
Xie Jingmo drank his tea and remained silent for a long time.
Then his eyes fell on the dark entrance of the restaurant outside, and he said lightly, "No need, Fu Hai is here, she won't go far, wait for her to come back."
Deputy General Gao felt that Xie Jingmo had become a bad person.
So sinister.
He could even imagine the scene of Yun Zhao shrinking his neck and being dragged back to the palace.
It took two years.
One can imagine how angry Xie Jingmo was.
