Originally, only a half-day session was planned for the morning, but due to the great response, Lin Shuyou spoke again in the afternoon.
Lin Shuyou was a bit nervous and stamred in the morning, but in the afternoon, he completely relaxed and started sharing the stories he heard in the temple as a child after finishing the content on the manuscript.
As soon as he entered the private room, Lin Shuyou excitedly shared his experiences of the day with Brother Xiao Yuan.
Upon sitting down, he realized there were two outsiders, one of whom was an elder. When Lin Shuyou looked at him, he felt his eyes begin to bulge, with a feeling of intimidation that made it hard to look directly at the old man.
Nowadays, he had a closer relationship with the child, which ant that even the child dared not reveal its presence or aura in front of this elder.
During lunchti, the elder mainly spoke with Li Sanjiang, but during the dinner, he conversed more with Li Zhiyuan.
Li Sanjiang focused on eating, especially enjoying the braised sea cucumber and nine-turn large intestines; he ate a lot of the large intestines, which he particularly liked.
From studies to life, the elder asked many questions, and Li Zhiyuan answered them all, maintaining a harmonious atmosphere.
Li Sanjiang picked food for Lin Shuyou and asked, "What's wrong with you? Why are you acting like a little girl tonight?"
Lin Shuyou didn't know how to explain, since discovering the presence of the elder, he felt a constant sense of unease, as if sitting on pins and needles, even his breathing was sowhat labored.
Run Sheng lit incense, eating while chewing the aroma.
Li Sanjiang laughed and explained, "This kid has had this quirk since childhood, don't mind him."
The elder laughed, "Incredible people and extraordinary talents, it's normal to be remarkable."
Li Sanjiang said, "Indeed extraordinary, he is an excellent worker; as long as you feed him well, he could carry you from outside the border to Xuzhou in one breath."
The young man whispered sothing to the elder, who fell into thought and said, "Let her wait."
The young man left the private room.
As the dinner was about to end, the elder raised his glass, "Old brother, co, I toast to you."
"Co, co." Li Sanjiang stood up, and the two clinked glasses.
At lunchti, it was beer for gargling, but at night they drank white liquor, and both elders appeared a bit tipsy.
"Old brother, raising a child on your own isn't easy."
"Ha, others envy too late; there's nothing difficult about it. Don't laugh, originally I thought I'd spend this life carefree alone, lie in the coffin, get buried under dirt, and it wouldn't be a wasted life.
Only when I t my Little Yuanhou did I realize the joy of having a kid by my side.
Sotis I feel it's not taking care of the child, but the child taking care of ."
"Xiao Yuan is indeed a good kid."
"That's right, we must thank them, gave such a big advantage for free by not raising him, hahaha!"
The elder showed a bitter smile.
Li Sanjiang seed truly drunk, staggered, and mumbled:
"Such a good child, how cold-hearted, said no and just abandoned him, didn't even look at or care about him. I am really curious, what kind of family that is, are they laying dragon eggs and phoenix eggs at ho, boasting sky-high.
Though the child is in university now, he's already interning; in a few years, when he manages himself, he won't need anyone to flatter him, even if they try to co close, it won't matter.
Younger brother, do you agree with ?"
"What old brother said is right."
The two elders toasted each other again, and it seed like Li Sanjiang was high on alcohol, collapsing onto the chair.
The elder twirled the empty glass in his hand, his eyes falling on the young boy for a long while.
Finally, he closed his eyes, stood up, "Old brother, I will arrange soone to send you back to the hotel."
Li Sanjiang waved his hand, "No need for trouble; we'll go back on our own. Later, I want to walk outside, catch so wind, feel good. Younger brother, you go back first, take care of yourself, we are not young anymore, you should drink less and smoke less too."
After saying that, Li Sanjiang took out a cigarette box from his pocket, handed a cigarette to the other elder, and the two elders leaned together, lighting the cigarette.
Li Sanjiang put the lighter in the elder's pocket, "Your lighter, returning it to you."
"Old brother, keep it as a nto."
"Why would I need it? I already have mories, haha, burp!"
The elder left the private room.
Li Zhiyuan sat in his original place, helping Run Sheng with the dishes, cleaning the table.
Lin Shuyou rested his head on the table, gasping continuously, the pressure on him finally disappeared.
If not for Mr. Li being present, Ah You would really want to ask Brother Xiao Yuan who exactly was that person, who could suppress the White Crane Child like this.
Moreover, Lin Shuyou could sense that the other was not deliberately exerting pressure, as most of his attention was on Brother Xiao Yuan.
Li Sanjiang, leaning on the chair, took out money from his pocket and pointed outside, "Little Yuanhou, go settle the bill."
Li Zhiyuan said, "The bill should already be settled."
Li Sanjiang placed the money on the table, turned his drunken eyes to the boy, and said:
"Then go see Grandpa Bei off."
...
Li Zhiyuan walked out of the restaurant, went a certain distance, and saw that figure under the shade of trees at the overpass.
Beside Grandpa Bei was a gray-haired old woman, her eyes red, complaining to Grandpa Bei about sothing.
Grandpa Bei stood there without explaining, letting his old partner vent to him.
The young man beside him, seeing this, could only remind the leader that he just had surgery.
"He just had surgery, smoked, drank, t people, but wouldn't let see..."
At this mont, Li Zhiyuan's figure appeared, stopped a few ters from the two elders.
