Chapter 185: Old Soup Duck Stew
Ye nodded in agreement with what I said. At this time, a taxi came over and we took it to head to Nan Jie's old wonton soup.
When they arrived, Zhou Mo's Mitsubishi sports car was parked at the entrance, and two beautiful women were standing next to it. One of them, Zhou Mo, had short red hair and looked elegant and refreshing. The other one, Qi Siyu, was petite and delicate, looking cute and lovely. Passersby couldn't help but take a glance at them. Even the taxi driver stared at them, and when I paid the fare, he said, "Look at those two women, they must be mistresses." Ye Zhan patted him on the back and said, "Don't talk nonsense, they're our classmates, very innocent."
Then, under the astonished face of the taxi driver, Ye Zhan and I got off the car calmly and walked away.
We went into the restaurant and were led to a private room by the waiter. After the old soup was served, we ordered drinks and wine, and then the four of us started eating. This was my first time at this restaurant, it's not big in scale, and there were very few customers, but the taste is actually quite good, the old soup is white and tender, and the duck meat is fresh and delicious. Qi Siyu raised her glass: "We girls drink soft drinks, you boys drink wine, okay?" I said no problem, and the four of us clinked glasses together.
We chatted for a while, and I and Qi Siyu kept talking nonstop, while Zhou Mo and Ye Zhan remained silent, the atmosphere was always a bit chilly. I intentionally brought up that past experience with Su Xiaobai, telling about my time in the cage. "If we followed normal legal procedures, at the very least I would have been sentenced to several years. But since the parties involved forgave me, Jingfang couldn't say anything else. When there's no plaintiff, there's no case, so I was able to come out unscathed." After finishing speaking, I looked at Zhou Mo.
Zhou Mo frowned and said, "Wang Hao, if you have something to say, just say it directly, don't beat around the bush with me."
"Alright, I'll be straightforward then." I put down my chopsticks and said: "To be honest, I still don't know what exactly happened between Ye Zhan and Qi Siyu, but Ye Zhan did tell me that he indeed owes Qi Siyu an apology. However, Qi Siyu is a big girl with a generous heart, and even now she hasn't been weird to Ye Zhan; on the contrary, she's always been good to him, which I find very touching."
Qī Sīyǔ said with a slight blush: "Thank you, Hào Gē. I hope Yè Zhǎn can be moved too."
Ye Zhan listened and then lowered his head. I guess he couldn't have been unmoved in his heart, but after all, he was already with Su Wan.
"Sixth sister, don't speak yet." Zhou Mo said: "This Wang Hao is very cunning, there's a hidden meaning in his words, let's wait for him to finish speaking first."
I forced a smile: "Zhou Mo, my point is, even Qi Siyu doesn't mind anymore, why are you still holding on to it? It's like the thing with Su Xiaobai, since the person involved has forgiven me, others shouldn't say anything either."
Zhou Mo sneered and said, "Although I don't know what method was used to get Su Xiaobai to forgive him, but I'm guessing Su Xiaobai's parents won't let it go. Otherwise, we'll just wait and see, at that time, the outcome might be even more miserable than Ye Zhan's."
After hearing Zhou Mo's words, I shuddered all over and found that what she said wasn't unreasonable either. After all, I had crippled one of Su Xiaobai's legs, so how could Su Yaoming and Li Xiayun let me off easily? Just then, Zhou Mo continued to say: "Many things are in a state of 'the doer is confused', for example, Qi Siyu still foolishly dotes on Ye Zhan, so that he can make such mistakes without holding it against him. But sorry, we 'onlookers' will not watch Qi Siyu continue to be foolish."
"What exactly do you want?"
"I don't want to, anyway." Zhou Mo played with the spoon in his hand: "It will be known before the mid-term exam, Ye Zhan dares to do it and must dare to take responsibility. Such a shameless thing can be done, and I'm afraid my means of dealing with him will be too ruthless?"
"Eldest sister..." Qi Siyu said pitifully.
"Shut up!" Zhou Mo glared at her: "A man like that isn't worth loving, he's just a heartless bastard!"
Ye Zhan's face turned deathly pale, and Qi Siyu also didn't dare to speak anymore. Zhou Mo's outburst was truly a bit frightening.
"Zhou Mo." I said in a low voice: "If not, then let's just beat Ye Zhan to a pulp and be done with it. After we're done, this matter will be settled, and neither of us will mention it again, how about that?"
"No way!" Qi Siyu was the first to express her objection. In fact, I was also pretending to retreat in order to advance, to see what Zhou Mo really wanted to do. If Zhou Mo just wanted to beat Ye Zhan for a while, then things would be much simpler. Both Qi Siyu and I were here, and we wouldn't just watch as Zhou Mo beat Ye Zhan into a pulp.
"No way." Zhou Mo also refused bluntly, then sneered and said: "Just beating him once is not enough? I must let him taste the double torture of ** and Jing's wrath, give him a lesson that he will never forget in this life, otherwise, I won't be able to explain it to my brothers and sisters."
"Eldest sister, what do you want to do...?" Qi Siyu was almost in tears: "If it's like this for Ye Zhan, I'll be very sad too. No matter what means are used to deal with him, I'll endure it together with him."
"... Zhou Mo couldn't help but look at Qi Siyu with a sense of frustration and disappointment, as if he felt that she was not living up to her potential."
Ye Zhan let out a sigh and leaned back in his chair, looking exhausted: "Haozi, let's go back, there's nothing more to talk about."
"Yè Zhǎn, don't go!" Qí Sīyǔ pulled on Yè Zhǎn's arm: "Let's talk some more. Fifth sister has a sharp tongue but a soft heart, she just says scary things but won't actually do anything. Otherwise, why would she play cards with us and come out to eat together? She's just trying to scare you..."
Zi Siyu's words suddenly made me feel enlightened. What he said was absolutely right, Zhou Mo is indeed a sharp-tongued and soft-hearted person. For so many days, sitting in front of and behind Ye Zhan, except for occasionally losing his temper and stabbing him with a few words, it seemed like there wasn't any excessive behavior.
"Zhou Mo!" I shouted loudly: "Why must you be so stubborn? Not only will this hurt Ye Zhan, but also me, and even more so, Qi Siyu. Can you bear the consequences? Since we're already seated here, let's discuss a solution."
A pot of old soup was simmering slowly, with a misty vapor rising up slowly. A duck head appeared and disappeared in the soup. The vapor covered Zhou Mo's face, and all that could be heard was her slow words: "If we must talk, it's not like we can't."
My heart was excited: "Zhou Mo, just waiting for this sentence. Come on, let's have a drink first." Then I raised my glass, thinking that the matter would be settled soon, and it was worth paying any price to see Ye Zhanping safe and sound. Qi Siyu also raised her glass and said with a smile: "Hao Ge, I'm more and more convinced, there aren't many men who can make me, Wu Jie, fall in love."
My face turned red, and I hastily said, "What are you talking about? Five sister and I are good friends, don't believe me ask her." Qi Siyu always takes the opportunity to make fun of us two. Usually at this time, Zhou Mo would scold her. However, Zhou Mo unexpectedly didn't utter a word, nor did he raise his cup; Ye Zhan also had the same reaction, not speaking and not raising his cup.
"What's wrong with you two?" I looked at Zhou Mo curiously, then at Ye Zhan.
"Not so fast," said Ye Zhan. "I want to hear her terms."
"Alright, alright." I also put down my cup: "Since we're going to talk, there must be conditions. Since that thing was Ye Zhan's fault, let's set the conditions ourselves, and we'll definitely try our best to satisfy them. Of course, it can't be too excessive either, picking stars and moons is something we can't do, right?" I thought my last sentence was humorous, but as a result, no one on the scene laughed, and the atmosphere became even colder, making me feel embarrassed and ashamed. Only Qi Siyu smiled and said: "How could that be? My fifth sister isn't so bored."
"It's actually very simple," Zhou Mo said: "We can definitely do it."
"Go ahead and say it."
Zhou Mo opened his mouth, just about to speak, when my phone suddenly rang. "Ah, sorry about this, wait a minute, I'll just answer the phone hehe." I saw it was an unfamiliar number, so I directly picked up: "Who is this?"
"Haha, Wang Hao!" Xia Xue's happy voice came over: "I also bought a cell phone, this is my number, save it."
"Go ahead." I also laughed, Xia Xue this little rich woman, wanting to buy a cell phone is not a matter of minutes? At this time, receiving Xia Xue's call was not very suitable, but I was still very happy, after all, it had been several days since we met. "Wife, I'm dying..." I couldn't help myself, and started being mushy in front of Zhou Mo and the others.
"Hehe, just thinking of me, not coming to see me, who would believe it? What have you been busy with these past few days?"
"It's about Ye Zhan's thing." I've told Xia Xue about it.
Xia Xue said: "Haven't finished dealing with it yet? I feel like since coming to Beiyuan to study, I haven't had a break. Busy to the point that I don't even have time to accompany my wife!" I chuckled and said: "Who says it's not true? By the way, don't forget our agreement, the exam is almost here."
Xia Xue spat on the phone: "A rascal, day and night don't know what to think about. By the way, what are you doing now?"
"What's up now?" I looked at the three people on the table and said: "I'm having dinner with Zhou Mo, Qi Siyu, and Ye Zhan."
"Oh no, why didn't you call me to eat out? I want to go too! I want to go too!" The voice was loud and everyone else heard it. To be honest, calling Xia Xue over at this time wasn't suitable, but directly refusing her wouldn't be good either, so she just asked them with her eyes."
Zhou Mo's face was expressionless, Qi Siyu shook her head, while Ye Zhan nodded... This this this, what am I supposed to do?
"Hurry up and tell me where it is, I'm getting bored." Xia Xue urged over the phone.
"Alright," I said: "Let's go to Old Tung Duck Porridge on Nan Street." We had to hurry up and finish our conversation before she arrived.
I hung up the phone and looked at Zhou Mo: "Now you can make a request." Qi Siyu and Ye Zhan also looked at her together.
The misty fog slowly rose, and Zhou Mo's face was a bit hard to see.
