I Am the Fated Villain

Chapter 470 Eating
Time always slips away in a hurry, and a month passes quietly in the blink of an eye.

During this month, Zheng Xie has basically gotten acquainted with everyone on the island, especially his business partner, Lao Xu's family. Sometimes, he can even go there for a meal, and his life is not bad. Moisturize.

Perhaps Zheng Xie's superficial age is about the same as that bastard in Xu Da's family, and Xu Da has been thinking about his son, so Xu Da subconsciously put this feeling on Zheng Xie.

But on this day, one thing made Xu Da tangled up.

In the dead of night, in the Xu Family Courtyard, in a room,
"Old Xu! You should ask that child first! Maybe he is willing to go? We have treated him well these days. He will help us with this matter, right?" A middle-aged woman looked at the station. Xu Da, who was by the window, said pleadingly.

But Xu Da shook his head and sighed: "I think it's better to forget it! We have only known each other for a month, and we are not too familiar, and this matter is really too important. If he is allowed to go, I will not rest assured."

"Worried? What are you worried about? Old Xu! What are you thinking? It's not about asking him to do difficult things. Why are you so worried!" the middle-aged woman asked puzzled.

Just hearing this, Xu Da gritted his teeth, and said a little excitedly: "Stop talking, I don't believe you don't know about Haidong's assessment, we have already harmed our own child, why bother him again? "

As soon as the words came out, the middle-aged woman moved back slightly, bowed her head, and seemed to be silent for a while, but after a while, she was still struggling, and whispered: "But...but our child..."

"Our child is gone!!" Xu Da shouted suddenly.

And this sentence directly shocked the heart of the middle-aged woman, a trace of despair slowly appeared in her eyes, and a little crystal slowly overflowed, across her pale cheeks.

In addition, Xu Da's expression is naturally very uncomfortable. He actually used a lot of courage to say this, the courage to admit the facts and the truth. You are deceiving yourself and others, you and I know how dangerous the assessment is, so...so we shouldn't let him go back then, and we shouldn't let Xiao Zheng go now either!"

"No!!" The middle-aged woman seemed to be emotionally broken, and roared: "Xiao Chen's letter made it very clear that our child is just missing, and he must be waiting for us to find him somewhere. We can't Just give up like this?"

The hearts of parents in the world, the pleadings and hopes of middle-aged women, and the complexity and entanglement of Xu Da are exactly in response to this point.

But sometimes women are emotional, especially when dealing with extremely important things, they often tend to unconsciously favor their own "feelings", and the middle-aged women now feel that Zheng Xie should participate in the assessment and help It's no problem for them to find their own children, at most they just ask Zheng Xie to do a little favor.

However, she didn't know that her "feeling" had to be based on two foundations. The first was that Zheng Xie was going to participate in the Haidong Island assessment, and the second was that Zheng Xie agreed to her request. Her "feeling" is meaningless.

Conversely, as an experienced businessman, Xu Da thinks completely differently from middle-aged women. His rationality will occupy most of the choices. He knows that some things cannot be forced, and he also knows that in Letting Zheng Xie go to Haidong Island's assessment without telling Zheng Xie how terrible the assessment in Haidong Road is, and asking him to find his son for him is undoubtedly tantamount to murder, so...he doesn't want to.

It's just that he can't deny that this is a rare opportunity, because on this island, there are no people who are willing to participate in the Haidong Island assessment. His son and the son of the Chen family can be said to be the last batch of courageous people. But sometimes, courage does not play a big role, and tragedies that should happen will still happen.

So after knowing the cruelty of Haidong Island's assessment, the young people on the island would not choose this assessment even if they wanted to go out and wander the world, so he couldn't ask others to help him, so he could only focus on On Zheng Xie who knew part of the assessment.

"That kid is very good, very hardworking and hardworking. I see the shadow of our child in him, do you understand? Although he is an outsider, we can't harm him!" Xu Da said seriously.

And what he said made the middle-aged woman even more entangled, but she didn't give up. After a while, her eyes moved slightly, as if she had made a final decision: "Okay then! Since you said so Now, let's leave the decision to him! Tomorrow you call him over for dinner, and we'll explain everything to him. If he refuses, I won't say anything."

Hearing this, Xu Da frowned, but he also felt that this method is feasible given the current situation, so after careful consideration, he finally nodded: "Okay! Let him decide all this by himself !"

……

The next day came, there was no sunshine today, the sky was full of dark clouds, and after slowly gathering together, there were signs of rain, but until the hour of the night, the rain did not really fall, as if Waiting for the timing in general.

But the fishermen on the island like this kind of weather, because at this time, the fish in the river will float up and breathe, and everyone will have more harvest, so starting from the morning, you can see many islanders. Smile, and Zheng Xie is no exception.

As usual, Zheng Xie, who was holding more than 40 fish, came to Xu Da's shop and started negotiating with Xu Da, but to Zheng Xie's surprise, this time Xu Da gave more than 40 fish. The price of the fish itself, this has never happened before.

"Huh? Six hundred copper coins is a bit much!" After Zheng Xie took the money, he asked very strangely. Although Xu Da tried his best to maintain a normal state since he entered the store, with his eyesight as a cultivator, he How could it be possible not to see that Xu Da was abnormal?
Xu Da was taken aback, then smiled softly, and hurriedly replied: "Hehehe, you deserve more, you deserve it. The fish in this season is already expensive, and you are my acquaintance, so the price is actually just right." of."

"Just right?" Zheng Xie obviously didn't believe it. Although he has only been fishing for more than two months, he has done his homework on the market price. He knows very well that even if the market's demand for fish increases, this fish will not be possible. It is so expensive to sell, at most four or five hundred copper plates is considered sky-high, so no matter how you think about it, there are some problems here.

It's just that Xu Da doesn't want to talk about it now, and Zheng Xie won't ask too much, because from Xu Da's attitude, he can see that Xu Da will tell him everything in a short time.

And just as he thought, when he turned around to leave here, Xu Da stopped him abruptly: "Wait!"

Hearing his voice, Zheng Xie's heart moved, but on the surface he was still in a normal state. He pretended to be suspicious, and then asked: "What's the matter?"

"Uh... this... you should be fine tonight! Stay for a meal?" Xu Da said hesitantly.

"Huh?" Zheng Xie doubted again, and there was a brief silence. He wanted to refuse directly, but seeing Xu Da's expectant eyes, he finally chose to nod, and then he replied: "Okay. "

Seeing that Zheng Xie agreed, Xu Da also breathed a sigh of relief, but a sense of guilt suddenly rose in his heart, which made him a little uncomfortable.

……

An hour later, in the main hall of the Xu Family Courtyard.

The round dining table is already filled with all kinds of delicacies, including braised pork ribs, steamed crucian carp, roasted whole lamb, steamed pork, and various delicious side dishes, which can be described as extremely rich, which makes Zheng Xie He couldn't help swallowing a mouthful of saliva, and the chopsticks in his hands were trembling even more.

Although he has eaten here before, he has never had such a big meal like today. Just looking at these dishes, Zheng Xie can't help but sigh in his heart. Under the meal, there must be something corresponding to it, and as the saying goes, if you take people softly and eat people with short mouths, if he really eats, it may be a bit difficult to talk about in the future.

"Hey! What's the matter? It's so mysterious." Zheng Xie was thinking in his heart, while looking at Xu Da and his wife who were sitting in the main seat, even if his mouth was about to be unbearable, he He didn't move his chopsticks immediately, but just sat quietly.

Xu Shi also noticed that the atmosphere was rather awkward. As the host, Xu Da smiled and said, "Xiao Zheng, you are welcome, just eat! You can eat whatever you want. We are all acquaintances. It takes a lot of attention.”

"Yes, yes!" The middle-aged woman sitting next to him also said with a smile: "You can eat as much as you can today, and if you think it is delicious, you can come over to eat in the future. Lao Xu and I will definitely treat you well." Yours, don't worry!"

But hearing these words, Zheng Xie didn't feel at ease no matter what he thought. Originally, he thought they would talk about things immediately after he sat at the dining table, but he didn't expect that they were also very conflicted, so when things got here, he could only take the initiative I spoke.

In silence, Zheng Xie breathed a sigh of relief, then looked at Xu Da and his wife, and then said seriously: "You two! If you have anything to do, just tell me directly! If I can help you two, I will definitely If you can't help me, please don't mind."

"Eh? This..." Hearing this, Xu Da and his wife felt conflicted again. The two of them looked at each other, then sighed again, and finally said the matter in a kind of helplessness. Said it slowly.

……

After a while, Zheng Xie finally figured out what they were thinking, but he smiled wryly in his heart. What did he think it was?He didn't expect that he was just helping them find their son, which really surprised him.

"Okay! It's my own fault. After all, I'm a mortal, so what can be difficult?" Zheng Xie criticized himself, then shook his head deeply to himself.

It can be seen that Zheng Xie shook his head, but Xu Da and the two frowned, because they thought Zheng Xie had rejected them, and they felt a little uncomfortable in their hearts, and Xu Da's wife seemed to be even more desperate.

"Is it really not possible? That's right, the assessment is so dangerous, and there is a possibility of death. I don't think any normal person would agree to such a thing, alas!" Xu Da sighed again, clenched his hands a little bit, A little bit unwilling.

But at this moment, Zheng Xie picked up the chopsticks, picked up a piece of steamed meat, put it in his mouth, chewed it twice, swallowed it, then smiled slightly, and said: "It's delicious! Hehehe! Accidentally ate something from Boss Xu, now I don’t want to help you all!”

"Eh?" Hearing Zheng Xie's words, whether it was Xu Da or his wife, both of them were startled, as if they couldn't react.

"You...you mean...agreed? But...but..." Xu Da's eyes moved quickly, and he asked in disbelief.

"There's nothing wrong with it, don't worry! If your son is really alive, then I will definitely find him!" Zheng Xie ate another rib with confidence.
