After Qingming, the rain beca even more torrential.
The alley beca exceedingly muddy, Li Che held an oil-paper umbrella, holding Xi Xi in one arm, and walked slowly through Thunder Alley toward the restaurant.
The torrential rain splashed countless fine overlapping petals of water on the muddy ground of the alley.
Rainwater dripped off the edges of the oil-paper umbrella, weaving into a curtain of rain.
Xi Xi encircled Li Che’s neck with her hands, shaking her head joyfully.
She could see Gou again, and eat the delicious dishes cooked by the boss!
The dim light shone from the restaurant.
Li Che arrived in front of the restaurant.
The Big Black Dog, sleeping on the ground amid the sound of rain, twitched its nose, its dog eyes suddenly opened, its head perked up.
As soon as it saw Xi Xi coming down the alley, its dog eyes naturally ignored the intimidating Li Che.
The Big Black Dog happily got up, bouncing on the spot, wagging its tail.
The boss sat on the chair, quickly stubbed out his cigarette roll, and waved to disperse the smoke.
“You’re here, Xi Xi, are you hungry? What would you like to eat? The boss will make it right away.”
The boss rare showed a smile.
Xi Xi was not bashful, she began counting the dishes on her fingers ticulously.
“So many dishes, can you finish them?”
Li Che tapped Xi Xi’s forehead.
“Just a bowl of noodles will do.” Li Che said gently.
A mont later.
Li Che looked at the bowl of noodles in front of him, while Xi Xi had braised pig’s trotters, sweet and sour ribs, and other delicacies in front of her, he suddenly fell into contemplation.
Was he being too polite?
After eating and drinking their fill.
Li Che and the boss each grabbed a chair and sat under the eaves of the restaurant, each with a cigarette roll in their mouth.
Watching the curtain of rain and listening to the soothing sound of the rain cleansing body and mind.
The boss, expressionless: “You’re saying that the little thing from Wushen Mountain wants to bet with Xi Xi?”
“If Xi Xi loses, she has to go to Wushen Mountain? Otherwise, the bet witnessed by Dao Yun will cut off Xi Xi’s path to cultivation?”
Li Che nodded.
“Can you give another tea egg snack to Xi Xi?”
Li Che grinned, revealing the real purpose of bringing Xi Xi this ti.
Everyone was preparing their trump cards, and Li Che was no exception.
The boss stubbed out his cigarette: “Indeed… If Xi Xi lost, opening the restaurant on Wushen Mountain would be a bit troubleso.”
He was a person who feared trouble.
So, he shook his head: “No need for the tea egg.”
“Nor is it that troubleso.”
“Gou.”
“You accompany Xi Xi for a round of play.”
