"The fried noodles in this restaurant are okay, but not as delicious as Lao Du's." Gu Niansheng lowered his voice and complained to Qin Zijin.
Qin Zijin couldn't help but smile when he heard that.
Du Can is a state banquet chef after all. His level is there. It is really too much of an insult to just find a small restaurant to compare with him.
Although the noodles in this restaurant are average, they are still okay and at least can fill your stomach.
The business in the store is not very busy, which is in stark contrast to the bustling night market outside.
"Su San, I want to drink soda. Go see where you can buy it and buy me a bottle of orange soda." Gu Niansheng felt a little uncomfortable after taking a few bites.
The boiled water in the store didn't quench her thirst, so she spoke to Su San who was sitting opposite her.
Su San looked helpless and stood up and walked out.
Qin Zijin put a piece of meat in Gu Niansheng's bowl and scolded him angrily, "You're just relying on him to pamper you. Why do you suddenly want to drink soda?"
"Sister Zijin, do you feel like someone is staring at us? I had this feeling when we just entered the night market. It felt weird." Gu Niansheng looked around before leaning close to Qin Zijin's ear and whispered.
Qin Zijin was slightly stunned, but she didn't have such a feeling.
She glanced around the store.
There are only four tables in the restaurant including them.
At one table, there was an old lady with her little grandson. The little grandson was eating noodles in big mouthfuls, and the old lady was watching with a smile on her face, not wanting to eat a single bite herself.
At the other table, there was an old man and a middle-aged man. There was only a bowl of noodles on the table for them. They hadn't taken much of a bite and looked like they were having an argument.
The last table was occupied by a young couple, who looked to be in their twenties. They ate a bowl of noodles together, taking turns taking bites, and looked very affectionate.
Qin Zijin looked around and asked Gu Niansheng in confusion, "Do you think it's someone from the store? Or someone from outside?"
"It feels like it's from the store." Gu Niansheng said with certainty.
Qin Zijin thought for a moment and felt that if there really was something wrong with the people in the store, the most likely ones would be the father and son.
After all, they are two men.
"Then why did you send Su San away? He can protect the two of us with him here. If he is not here, who do you think can beat us?" After Qin Zijin figured it out, he gave Gu Niansheng a cold look.
Gu Niansheng scratched his head, feeling a little embarrassed. "I'm just worried that he'll think I'm overthinking it, so I thought I'd tell you about it first."
"Forget it, let's pay the bill and leave first." Qin Zijin had no choice but to take out the money from his pocket and called the boss to settle the bill.
Seeing that they had only eaten half of the noodles, the boss couldn't help but ask, "Is it not to your taste?"
"No, no, boss, the portion you gave is too big. We both have small appetites and can't eat so much. If we had known the portion was so big, we would have only ordered one bowl. It's such a waste now." Qin Zijin shook his head quickly.
The boss's expression finally eased a little, and he insisted on packing up for Qin Zijin and the others.
Qin Zijin couldn't refuse, so she could only watch him take a plastic bag and pack up the remaining noodles.
No one at the three tables in the restaurant seemed to care whether Qin Zijin and the others stayed or left.
Qin Zijin pulled Gu Niansheng out of the store.
Just as I was about to leave, someone suddenly grabbed my feet.
Qin Zijin was stunned for a moment and lowered his head subconsciously.
The little boy who was eating noodles with the old lady was hugging his thighs tightly.
"Little friend, you..."
"Mom, please don't leave me. I will be good and obedient from now on. Please don't abandon me. Please don't leave me and daddy." The little boy didn't give Qin Zijin a chance to speak and suddenly burst into tears.
Qin Zijin's mind exploded all of a sudden.
Isn’t this the most common trick used by human traffickers in modern times?
Looking at the crying little boy, Qin Zijin smiled kindly, "My dear son, how could I bear to give you up? I'll take you home right now."
As he said this, he picked up the little boy.
The little boy was stunned for a moment, and looked back in confusion.
This is completely different from the agreed script.
Qin Zijin doesn't play by the rules.
The old lady following behind was also stunned for a moment, then she hurried to the door and reached out to pull Qin Zijin, "Mother of the child, even if you have any dissatisfaction, you can't divorce the child's father. Is there anything between husband and wife that can't be discussed properly? The child is so old now, you two should both take a step back and live a good life in the future. Come home with mom."
Qin Zijin glanced at the old lady. She looked to be in her early sixties, small in stature but very strong, obviously she was used to doing rough work.
One hand was holding Qin Zijin's wrist with such great force that Qin Zijin felt a sharp pain in her wrist.
Gu Niansheng was dumbfounded watching from the side.
I have no idea what happened.
How come two people suddenly appeared and dragged Qin Zijin to claim her as their mother?
But she was a smart person after all, and she quickly realized it.
Just as he was about to speak, two more people rushed out of the store. They were the father and son who were having the conflict.
The younger one stepped forward and hugged Gu Niansheng, "Wife, please come home with me. Stop fooling around with your sister. We can live a good life together when we get home."
"Let go!" Gu Niansheng shouted anxiously.
Qin Zijin was very calm, looking at the old lady with a smile, "Mom, what you said is right. I just came out for a walk because I was upset. Why don't you want to live your life anymore? I will definitely live a good life with Dashan, and I will definitely not abandon my son. I will definitely be filial to you and our father in the future."
"Mom, you must be exhausted after chasing me all this way. Come on, let's go home now."
As he said this, he grabbed the old lady and was about to take her away.
The old man next to him was stunned for a moment, and subconsciously wanted to come forward to pull Qin Zijin.
But before his hand touched Qin Zijin, he suddenly felt a pain on the back of his hand.
Before he could react, he suddenly felt half of his body go numb and he couldn't move at all.
The old lady was about to call for help when she suddenly felt something prick her at the base of her thumb, and then she found that she could not make any sound at all.
My body feels weak and I have no strength.
The smile on Qin Zijin's face became brighter and brighter. Seeing that Gu Niansheng was hugged, he took another step towards that side and raised his hand to pat the middle-aged man who was holding Gu Niansheng twice.
Just as the man was about to open his mouth to curse, he felt his body go numb and he fell to his knees.
Gu Niansheng was also freed.
Just as he was about to curse, he heard Qin Zijin say with a smile, "Oh, brother-in-law, I know you like my sister very much, but it's too embarrassing for a grown man to kneel down like this. Don't worry, I will definitely not separate you. I will take you home right away."
As he said this, he winked at Gu Niansheng.
Gu Niansheng hadn't figured out what was going on yet, but he knew Qin Zijin was right, so he grabbed the middle-aged man with one hand and followed Qin Zijin out to the night market.
