Chapter 365 The Beggar Who Came to the Restaurant to Inquire



But he knew that Wan Qiqi must have her reasons for doing this.

Upon hearing the message, Wu Gousheng immediately took his belongings and headed to West Alley.

Seeing the devastation in West Alley, he couldn't help but frown.

He also came from the countryside and had seen all kinds of dilapidated houses, but he was still shocked by the desolation before him.

He had witnessed the prosperity of Yuzhou, and seeing its current state evoked many emotions in him.

Wu Gousheng walked for a long time in the west alley before he saw any trace of people.

He tilted his head and said, "Hey, do you know where Uncle Xiang lives?"

The man looked up at Wu Gousheng.

Although this person was dressed smartly, he had a somewhat thuggish air about him, making him seem rather complicated.

For a moment, the man couldn't tell whether Wu Gousheng was good or bad, and just stared blankly in one direction.

"Thanks!" Wu Gousheng said and walked in the direction the man pointed.

He had only taken two steps when he stopped, took a cake from the bundle he was carrying, tossed it to the man, and said, "This is a treat from Manager Wan of Xinglong Restaurant for the Lantern Festival!"

Uncle Xiang looked at Wu Gousheng with suspicion and asked, "Who are you?"

Wu Gousheng glanced at the person and confirmed that it was indeed the person he had seen at the entrance of the restaurant. He smiled faintly and said, "I am from Xinglong Restaurant. Manager Wan heard that you came empty-handed and sent me to bring you some food."

As he spoke, he shoved the bundle in his hand into Uncle Xiang's arms.

Uncle Xiang was surprised by how heavy the bundle was and almost fell over. His astonishment deepened.

Wu Gousheng smiled faintly and said, "Sister Qi told me to tell you that Xiao Yi is fine. As long as he obeys the government's arrangements, he will be out soon."

He then looked around the room and said, "He's doing fine inside, but are you sure you can wait for him to come back like this?"

Uncle Xiang looked back at his house and lowered his head.
