Seeing that he looked like he was about to cry, Jiang Li was a little puzzled: "Sir, what's wrong with you? This fish porridge is so delicious that you are about to cry. If you like it so much, I can give you the recipe."

Yan Shanbai shook his head: "It's not because of this, it's because I seldom eat with others. I didn't expect that if we eat together, our appetite will be much better."

"Haha, I see. Then you can eat with your family in the future. If more people eat together, it will be beneficial for your anorexia treatment."

"Oh, I'm afraid that's not possible. They are very busy. If they eat with me, they will be very anxious. When they are anxious, they will rush me. But the more they rush me, the less I can eat."

"Young Master, you can understand this feeling. They don't care about me at all. They just spend money on me. They can't even have a good meal with me. How can I feel at home?"

Jiang Li echoed, "Yes, I know this feeling, loneliness and not being understood. To be honest, I only have my mother. My father passed away when I was very young. I am more lonely than you. At least you have silver and gold to accompany you. You can buy whatever you want."

"I'm different. I have nothing and can only earn everything on my own. You see, I'm pretty good at cooking, right? That's because I suffered a lot in the past, but I learned everything."

Mo Jue: ...How come he didn't know when His Majesty passed away?

Mo Yuan: Xiao Li is so eager for His Majesty to die. Even though His Majesty is really useless, he is still our biological father after all. If we just bear with it and watch, it’s actually not that bad.

Yan Shanbai's eyes suddenly changed, becoming more friendly: "My name is Yan Shanbai, may I know your name, young master?"

"My name is Yunli, you can just call me Xiaoli."

"Okay, Xiao Li, my home is in Yancheng. If you come in the future, you can find me at Yan Mansion. Here is the jade pendant, keep it."

Jiang Li reached out to take it with a wooden face. Did the ancients like to give jade pendants as gifts? No wonder jade is so expensive nowadays. It seems that our ancestors over-exploited it and used it all up.

He coughed lightly: "Ahem, okay, if I have the chance in the future, I will definitely go to Yancheng to see Brother Yan."

Yan Shanbai's eyes were clear, and he smiled when he heard it: "Okay, Xiaoli is really interesting. He likes to travel on weekdays. I envy him. If my body can, I would also like to go out more often."

"It's just a pity that I get sick too easily when I go out. I have to bring a doctor with me. Otherwise, if something goes wrong, I might die outside."

Jiang Li looked at him with sympathy. This man was really pitiful. He had mountains of gold and silver guarding him, but he couldn't touch them. It was no different from being in jail. No wonder he was so unhappy.

Most people with anorexia are in a bad mood, and depression and loss of appetite are also related. If you are not feeling well mentally, how can your body be healthy?

He consoled her, "It's okay. As long as you eat well and feel better, your body will naturally get better. Then you can go around and see the local customs and people. It will be worth your trip to this world."

Yan Shanbai clapped his hands and said excitedly, "Yes, Xiaoli is the one who wins my heart the most. It's rare to have a close friend in life. It's a pity that I can't drink, otherwise I would definitely drink with Xiaoli."

After he finished speaking, he felt a chill on his neck. He subconsciously shrank his neck and turned his head to look over. He met Mo Yuan's cold eyes and was a little scared: "Xiao Li, is that your brother?"

Jiang Li was silent for a moment, then said softly, "No, our relationship is a little complicated, so you'd better not ask."

"Oh, okay then."

midnight

A stealthy figure walked towards the cabin where Jiang Li was. As soon as the door was opened, he tiptoed in, walked straight towards the figure on the bed, raised the dagger and was about to stab.

Jiang Li rolled over and got to the ground. He raised his foot and kicked the man onto the bed. He then raised his fist and started beating him. Bang, bang, bang, one punch after another landed on the man. The man couldn't help but wail.

"Stop, stop hitting me. I was wrong and shouldn't have come in. Please let me go this time, please, wuwu~~~"

Jiang Li slapped him and said angrily, "What are you crying for? A real man sheds blood but not tears. Why are you crying? Kneel down and explain clearly who asked you to come."

Mei Yidao cried and said, "My name is Mei Yidao, and I am a... thief. I came here because I saw you showing off your wealth, so I wanted to steal some money."

"Oh, then why don't you go find Yan Shanbai? Why are you looking for me? I look like I'm easy to bully, right?"

Isn't that right? He is a thief, so he will definitely find someone who is easy to deal with. As the eldest son of the Yan family, he dare not steal, for fear that he will steal but not spend his money.

This little dwarf is different. He looks easy to deal with, but I didn’t expect him to be so strong. It hurts so much when he hits me. My whole body is in pain. If I had known, I wouldn’t have come to steal.

Seeing that he remained silent, Jiang Li's face darkened: "It seems that you really think I'm easy to bully, right? Come here and take this pill, otherwise, I will kill you right now."

"Tell me, if I kill you now and throw you into the river, will anyone find you?"

Mei Yidao shuddered. Of course he would not be discovered. He had sneaked onto the boat and did not register at all. Even if he was missing, no one would know. If he was thrown into the river, his body would probably be eaten by fish.

No, that's too miserable.

He knelt down and begged for mercy: "No, no, please spare my life, I will serve you like a slave in the future, I will take the medicine, I will take it now."

Jiang Li looked at him, swallowed the mud ball, and smiled: "Very good, are you good at stealing things?"

Mei Yidao nodded repeatedly: "Well, this is the first time I've been caught. I've done it many times before and never failed. Even if someone comes head-on to me, I can still take the things away without making a sound and no one will notice."

"Oh, it seems you are a master thief. Then follow me from now on. Maybe I can use you in the place we are going this time. Yidao, don't you think so?"

The body trembled: "Yes, Master, whatever you say is what it is. As long as you give Yidao a bite to eat, I will obey you no matter what you do."

Jiang Li sat on a stool nearby and said with a smile, "There's no need to risk your life. Just be responsible, don't get into trouble, and follow my instructions. Don't worry, I'm a sincere person and I never mistreat my own people."

"You'll know later. Go out first. Just pretend that what happened today never happened. Don't even think about running away. I will get angry with anyone who runs away."

A thread of spiritual power penetrated directly into his brain.

Mei Yidao felt the sharp pain and subconsciously covered his head: "Oh, it hurts, please spare my life, Master. Yidao will be obedient in the future. Whatever the Master says is what I will do."
