111, Chapter 111(1/2)
Jing Li and Xiao Yu Zai looked at each other and saw something very similar in each other's eyes.
...As expected of a father and son.
Jing Li thought of a countermeasure in an instant.
He picked up the little fish cub, walked to the young man, and said tentatively: "Excuse me..."
The blush on the young man's face had not gone away. When Jing Li called him, he raised his head like a panicked rabbit and even stuttered when he answered: "What, what?"
"I just want to ask you where you bought this pastry?" Jing Li pointed to the little boy in his arms and said apologetically, "This silly boy is greedy."
"This?" The young man touched his nose sheepishly, "This... I made it myself."
Jing Li blinked in surprise.
Turns out I did it myself.
The young man's hands must be too skillful.
But in this case, you can’t buy it.
There was a trace of regret in Jing Li's eyes, and the little boy in his arms also understood and frowned.
The expressions are exactly the same.
Although Qin Zhao and Jing Li doted on their children, they never relaxed their basic education. Xiaoyu Zai learned very early that when he wanted something, he could only ask for it from his family and could not force it in front of outsiders.
However, if you don't get what you want in the end, you can never solve it by crying willfully.
The little kid didn't cry or fuss, he just tilted his head and buried himself in Jing Li's arms, murmuring in an aggrieved voice: "Let's go..."
At a young age, I already understood the principle of keeping one's eyes out of sight.
Jing Li was about to say goodbye to the young man, but saw the young man push the pastry outward and whispered: "No ...No Are you half right?"
The young man didn't seem to know how to communicate with others. When he spoke, his ears turned red with nervousness, and he almost didn't dare to look into Jing Li's eyes.
Jing Li hesitated: "Is it okay?"
"Yes, it's okay." The young man mustered up his courage, picked up a piece of rabbit pastry and handed it to Jing Li, smiling, "I've made a lot."
Jing Li was actually a little hesitant.
He is no longer as innocent as he used to be. Now that he has his son by his side, he has to be even more cautious and not dare to eat food given by strangers on the street.
Especially after the previous affair with the Ji family.
As if sensing Jing Li's hesitation, the young man cut the pastry in his hand into two, and the light yellow sugar filling overflowed out like quicksand. The young man stuffed half of it into his mouth and handed the other half over: "Try it, it's very delicious."
delicious."
The little fish cub hugged Jing Li's neck and looked at the boy eagerly, then at Jing Li, but did not dare to reach out to take it before his father nodded.
Jing Li looked at his son's greedy look and sighed helplessly: "Take it and say thank you, uncle."
"Thank you...Uncle!" Xiao Yuzai said obediently.
The young man simply invited them to sit at the same table.
Jing Li paid for the tea first and wanted to pay for some snacks to the boy, but the latter refused: "No, these snacks don't cost much."
Only then did Jing Li notice that the young man was dressed in ordinary clothes, but the materials used in his clothes were of high quality.
The family situation seems to be not bad.
Jing Li took the initiative and said, "My name is Jing Li. What do you call me, young master?"
"Call me Azi." The young man said.
Jing Li asked: "Do you live near here? It seems I haven't seen you before?"
"No." The young man shook his head, "I just moved to Fucheng recently. Now I live in the south of the city. I rarely come here."
Jing Li: "That's right..."
While the two adults were chatting, the little fish cub sat on Jing Li's lap and kept eating. The little rabbit pastry was perfectly made, the dough was white and soft, and the quicksand sugar filling inside exuded a sweet and milky fragrance.
It reached the finger and was sucked off by the little fish cub.
Jing Li's attention was unconsciously drawn to it.
Want to eat.
But I'm embarrassed to take it.
In an instant, the little fish cub had finished chewing the second piece of pastry and wanted to reach for the third piece.
Jing Li: "..."
"Fish cubs." Jing Li said sourly, "Eat less."
The little fish retracted its outstretched hand, clenched it into a small fist unwillingly, and raised its head in aggrieved tone: "Hungry..."
"..."
It sounds like he's not being fed.
Jing Li pinched his face in disgust: "Didn't you have lunch just now?"
Azusa was obviously struck by the adorable appearance of Xiao Yuzai, and her eyes were full of smiles: "Is his name Yuzai? He's so cute..."
"Yes, a glutton." Jing Li poked the soft cub in his arms.
"Let him eat. Children just need to eat more." Azzu took a piece of pastry to Yuzai and handed another piece to Jingli, "Alli will eat it too."
Jing Li was so flattered that he immediately forgot what he had just taught Yu Zai: "Okay."
Jing Li and A Zi chatted while eating, and soon discovered that the latter was not as reserved as he seemed.
Azusa behaves very shy in front of strangers, but once they get to know each other, she seems to open up a chatterbox and is completely unprepared for others.
"I've been here all day. I'm so bored. Fortunately, I have you to chat with." Aziz said.
Jing Li asked: "Are you making an appointment with someone?"
Very few people come to this tea shop alone. Azusa doesn’t live nearby, but she not only ordered tea but also brought cakes, obviously she came well prepared.
Jing Li could only guess that he had an appointment with someone.
Aziz shook his head: "No."
"Are you waiting for someone?"
Azusa said "Huh" and said vaguely: "That's right."
Jing Li saw that Azi was a little unwilling to talk about this, so he didn't say anything more, but turned his eyes away.
This tea shop is right on the street, not far from his home. Sitting here, you can see the street outside his home, and even...
...Can you still see the front door of his house?
Jing Li blinked.
He used to come over occasionally to sit with Qin Zhao, but he never noticed that the direction of this table could see the front door of his house. A strange feeling arose in Jing Li's heart, and he looked at Aziz calmly, and sure enough, it was...
It was found that the latter would occasionally drift his eyes in that direction.
Jing Li: "..."
...Is it an illusion?
Jing Li looked back and asked tentatively: "Then how long are you going to stay here?"
"I don't know. It depends on when the people waiting will come out." Azi sighed and said, "Didn't you see that everyone brought snacks with them, just in case."
Jing Li: "..."
It's not an illusion.
This person is really spying on them, right???
Jing Li lowered his head and took a sip of tea, becoming wary.
From this point of view, the person who was guarding must be Qin Zhao. However, due to poor health, Qin Zhao had less time to come out to the public, so this person was fully prepared.
But since you are fully prepared, why don't you recognize him?
Also, why on earth was Qin Zhao targeted by this person?
Is it because of the Ji family's love?
Although he didn’t know why Ji Zhifei was willing to surrender in the first place, Jing Li knew that many people in the city believed that this was inseparable from Qin Zhao’s beating of drums to complain. In other words, it was Qin Zhao who caused the Ji family to suffer in disguise.
today's situation.
The Ji family's property is widely involved in Fucheng, so it is inevitable that some people with interests will bear grudges against him.
But if you have a grudge against him, why are you just waiting here?
Qin Zhao rarely goes out, and when he occasionally goes to the Gu Mansion, he is picked up by a carriage sent by the Gu family. What can he expect if he waits here?
Moreover, from the chat with the young man, it can be seen that the young man has a slow temper, but his conversation and behavior are appropriate, and he does not look like an ordinary businessman, nor does he look malicious.
How strange...
