Don't think of rebirth.
Chapter 401 Wontons
Although it was already 11 o'clock in the evening, there were still many shops open on the street.
Xiao Xishi led Liang Zhuo around in turns without stopping. Liang Zhuo began to get a little scared and put his hands on his chest: "Are you planning to sell me out?"
Xiao Xishi glanced at him and didn't respond. He waited until they reached a somewhat desolate alley before stepping on the brakes: "We're here, get out."
She did not forget to pick up her shoulder bag and walked straight into the alley. Liang Zhuo hurriedly followed.
Xiao Xishi didn't stop until he came to a small shop with incandescent lights on.
Liang Zhuo had sharp eyes and saw the handwritten sign standing next to the store door.
The ink has faded a little due to long-term exposure to wind and sun, but the content is still clearly visible.
"Fresh meat wontons, small bowl 4 yuan, medium bowl 6 yuan, large bowl 8 yuan..." Liang Zhuo was shocked, "In this day and age, are there still wontons that are so cheap?"
The boss heard the noise and came out. When he saw Xiao Xishi, he immediately smiled and said, "Xishi, are you working overtime tonight?"
He glanced at Liang Zhuo again and asked curiously, "Who is this..."
"Those who want to eat wontons." Xiao Xishi replied.
The boss said "Oh" and called Liang Zhuo into the store: "Don't stand outside like an idiot. It's windy tonight and it's cold!"
Liang Zhuo entered the store. The old sliding door made a creaking sound when it was opened and closed, but as soon as he entered the room, the coldness outside disappeared.
Liang Zhuo shook his shoulders: "Hey, I feel much better."
The boss asked, "Which bowl do you want?"
Liang Zhuo touched his stomach. He had indeed waited for a long time and was already hungry.
Besides, the food in this small alley shop is so cheap, even if the bowl is big, the portion may not be that big.
He then said, "Give me a big bowl!"
The boss responded and went to the kitchen to cook wontons.
Seeing that the boss didn't ask Xiao Xishi if he wanted it, Liang Zhuo, combined with the conversation between the two just now, guessed, "Are you a regular here?"
"Yeah." Xiao Xishi responded calmly, "Tell me, what do you want to talk about?"
She was so direct that Liang Zhuo simply stopped wasting time: "I heard that you are very close to Mo Yingyue, I want to ask you about it."
"What are you asking? What does she want to do?" Xiao Xishi looked up at her. "With Wuyin Entertainment's ability, as long as we say hello, Mo Yingyue won't dare to do anything."
Liang Zhuo slapped his thigh and said, "I think so too!"
His behavior made Xiao Xishi a little confused, and he became less cold unconsciously.
Liang Zhuo continued, "But President Xia doesn't like to interfere too much, otherwise... people will run away, right?"
Xiao Xishi was stunned and his expression suddenly became complicated.
If you want to deal with someone, you can't expect her not to make mistakes. Only if she makes mistakes will you have the opportunity to take action.
Beating her will only make her more alert, more cautious, and more difficult to eradicate completely.
Of course, Xia He also had another consideration.
Back then, Chu Changting relied on Jinding to ban Ji Fuling. So, would Ji Fuling want to rely on Wuyin Entertainment to ban Chu Changting and Mo Yingyue?
Chu Changting is certainly a scumbag, and Mo Yingyue's targeting and suppression of her is also very bad.
Ji Fuling would only feel happy if these two people could be defeated miserably.
However, the reason for the disastrous defeat should not be that Chu Changting and Mo Yingyue encountered a "tough opponent".
It doesn’t matter whether these two people will regret their actions. It’s a dream to expect bad people to have a conscience.
The important thing is that the mistakes made by these two people have been made public, and everyone knows that Chu Changting and Mo Yingyue deserved this fate and they got what they deserved.
Otherwise, to people who don't know the truth, Chu Changting and Mo Yingyue would appear innocent and pitiful.
Ji Fuling also gives people the impression of being a bully.
Xia He didn't like this kind of "quiet" revenge. These dirty things should be dragged into the broad daylight and be despised and hated by everyone.
It also lets everyone know that there is still order in this circle.
He may not be able to change the corrupt atmosphere in the entire entertainment industry by his own efforts, but as long as he is still there, he will not allow anyone to violate his order.
Liang Zhuo understood what Xia He meant. Apart from sighing, "As expected of President Xia," he had no other thoughts.
He couldn't do such a big thing, so he just served as Xia He's errand boy and did the job assigned to him.
Xiao Xishi pursed his lips: "What kind of conditions can you offer?"
Seeing that she was willing to talk, Liang Zhuo immediately took advantage of the situation and said, "Director Xiao should be very clear about our CEO Xia's abilities. Just mention it and I will pass it on to CEO Xia."
Xiao Xishi fell silent and Liang Zhuo did not urge him. Just at this moment, the boss came over with two bowls of wontons and placed them on the table.
"Come here, eat it while it's hot. My wontons are made with a traditional craft that has been passed down for two generations. They are delicious!" the boss greeted.
Liang Zhuo took a look and felt a little dizzy: "Boss, are you doing this business to lose money? 8 yuan for such a big bowl?"
The blue and white bowl has a diameter of nearly 20 centimeters, and the soup just reaches below the blue and white pattern around the rim of the bowl.
The light brown soup reflects the cloud-like wontons with thin skin and rich fillings, seaweed, dried shrimp, green onions, and even the oil.
Liang Zhuo's stomach growled just from smelling the food, so he quickly picked up the porcelain spoon and put it into his mouth.
The hot soup wrapped in the light wonton skin slides into your mouth. You don’t even need to bite it with your teeth. The skin has already melted on your tongue, and your mouth is filled with tender meat filling.
The meat filling is 80% lean and 20% fat, chewy and springy, delicious to chew, and you can't stop eating it.
Liang Zhuo ate one-third of it with a huff. Seeing that Xiao Xishi didn't move the spoon much, he couldn't help but urge him, "Don't dawdle. Eat quickly. The skin should melt if you soak it for a while."
Xiao Xishi came back to his senses and saw Liang Zhuo eating wontons again. He couldn't help but ask, "Aren't you in a hurry?"
"Why should I be anxious?" Liang Zhuo said vaguely, "You should be anxious. When I'm done with my work, I can go back and sleep until tomorrow noon. But you can't. You have to go to work tomorrow morning."
Xiao Xishi couldn't help but rolled her eyes. She didn't say anything and lowered her head to eat her portion of wontons.
Although Xiao Xishi ate slower, the amount in her bowl was smaller after all, so she finished it at about the same time as Liang Zhuo.
Liang Zhuo burped. He really ate too much tonight. But that was okay, as he wouldn't be woken up by hunger tomorrow morning.
Xiao Xishi was also ready and said, "I have something I want to ask President Xia."
"What's the matter?" Liang Zhuo asked.
"I will tell him after I meet with President Xia." Xiao Xishi looked at Liang Zhuo steadily.
Liang Zhuo was a little surprised. He touched his chin and said, "I can convey your intention to President Xia, but you have to show your sincerity first."
Liang Zhuo could understand that Xiao Xishi didn't trust him. From her attitude, he knew that what she wanted to discuss with Xia He was not simple.
Then Liang Zhuo would not ask too many questions and would just honestly serve as a mouthpiece.
However, Xiao Xishi had to prove that she was qualified to sit at the negotiating table.
Xiao Xishi took out her keychain from her bag. There were several USB flash drives hanging on it, with labels on them to distinguish them.
However, what she took off was a silicone 3D panda-shaped keychain.
She handed the keychain and her business card to Liang Zhuo: "Please give these to President Xia."
Liang Zhuo took it and put it directly into his pocket, not intending to study it carefully: "Okay, I'll take it."
Xiao Xishi took another breath: "I recorded our entire conversation. What you have is just a backup. If the news leaks out..."
"Of course not!" Liang Zhuo interrupted her, "I am loyal to President Xia!"
Xiao Xishi didn't say anything else. She knew that her behavior tonight was a bit reckless and there was a lot of gambling involved.
However, she could not miss this once-in-a-lifetime opportunity. Mr. Xia from Wuyin Entertainment was the person with the most powerful background she could get in touch with.
She looked at the bowl in front of Liang Zhu again.
The wontons had been eaten and the soup had been almost finished, leaving only a chopped green onion and a few drops of soup at the bottom of the bowl.
