Chapter 103 Honesty
Chapter 103: Frankness
It's night.
Since assassins appear in the city during the day, the patrol guards in Xinzheng City are much more dense than before.
Not far from Zilanxuan, a shed was built in the corner of the wall, and several wooden boards were built around it, so it barely became a side shop.
Generally speaking, I cook some pastries in the morning and during the day, and sell them with people who have rushed affairs in the city.
But tonight, the shop opened.
The boy sat on the bench, and the shop quickly brought a bowl of noodles and placed it in front of him, with a steaming heat on it.
Looking at the tender pasta and the little oily flowers on it, Zheng Ze didn't care much about it. He picked up the chopsticks next to him and started eating it.
There were no people wandering outside in the city tonight, only the occasional sound of infantry patrolling and walking, as well as the sound of the burly figure behind Zheng Ze tinkering up and down the stove.
Soon, two figures slowly walked to the simple face shop. Mo Ya hugged her chest with her hands, looked at the surrounding environment, and raised her eyebrows.
With the influence of the previous few times, he always felt that choosing this kind of place was not quite in line with Zheng Ze's style.
Seeing that Zheng Ze had no intention of raising his head, Mo Ya curled her lips and said slowly: "I have brought it to you by myself."
Cooperating with the crackling fire behind Zheng Ze, his voice still seemed a little abrupt.
Zheng Ze slowly raised his head, put down the chopsticks in his hand, took out a white cloth squid to wipe his mouth. The squid was taken from Nongyu's hand.
I saw her wash every day before, so I guess she must be cleaner.
Putting the white sack on the right hand of the table, while he was wiping his mouth, a hunched figure slowly walked behind Mo Ya.
The person who came had mixed black and white hair, and his hair was also very dry, with cloth strips wrapped around his face to cover up the scars. The clothes on his body could no longer be called clothes, because the hem was broken so that lines were hanging down, almost unable to cover his body.
Old, gray, powerless, lowly... These are probably what they look like from him.
If you didn't pay special attention, this is probably the appearance of a slave, or the lowest-class one. I guess there are not many cheaper slaves in Xinzheng.
Just glanced at him, Zheng Ze said softly: "Above."
Listening to his words, the burly man behind him immediately picked up the noodles from the pot and served them a full bowl, and brought them to the side of the table opposite Zheng Ze.
Seeing this, Mo Ya's eyes flashed. He recognized the person who cooked noodles, from Qijuetang, as if he was called Tang Ba.
Is this injury healed?
He didn't care about his thoughts, and the underestimator standing beside him slowly walked to Zheng Ze.
Gudong!
Only a crisp sound was heard, he knelt on the ground in a hurry, "Thank you Mr. Li for your revenge and rescue!"
His voice was trembling, and his emotions were really excited.
However, listening to his words, Zheng Ze's expression did not change at all and remained indifferent.
"I thought I was such a good person when I heard your thank you." As he said that, a sneering smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, not knowing whether it was mocking the person in front of him or self-mockery of himself.
"Get up, put away your thanks, I won't accept it anyway." Zheng Ze picked up the chopsticks and picked the oil on the soup.
The ragged figure slowly raised his head. The things he knew were told to him by the person he brought him, but it seemed a little different from what he thought.
Thinking of it, he couldn't help but look at Mo Ya.
Mo Ya shrugged at his sight. I was just here to complete the transaction, but I didn't care about my business. Standing here, I just wanted to see the show.
"Don't think so much, I just want to treat you to a bowl of noodles, Lord Li Kai Li."
When Zheng Ze finished speaking, Li Kai, wearing shabby clothes, felt a little hearted. Facing the eyes that seemed to penetrate people's hearts, he still slowly sat in front of the boy.
From beginning to end, his tone was so unquestionable that he had no room for rejection.
"Sir, Li Kai is willing to work hard for death!" Although he couldn't figure out the other party's meaning, Li Kai immediately expressed his feelings.
However, the young young man on the opposite side laughed and shook his head, "I said that I have no interest in your gratitude. In my opinion, your thanks are not even worth this bowl of noodles."
Although he was in a bad mood at this time, Li Kai was not shocked by the scene in front of him. He looked at Zheng Ze and asked, "Why did you save me?"
Zheng Ze did not answer his question, but asked: "More than ten years ago, Lord Li thought that he would have today? Because of your carelessness and trust in villains, he almost died, causing his wife torture and displaced his daughter?"
Listening to Zheng Ze’s question, Li Kai’s eyes shone with divine light, “This is all that Liu Yi…”
Before he could finish his words, Zheng Ze nodded and interrupted him, "Yes, Liu Yi deserves to die, so he is dead now. What about you, have you fulfilled your responsibilities as a husband and father?"
Unexpectedly he would ask this, Li Kai was stunned, "I..."
"You haven't even considered how much danger it will bring to Xinzheng this time." Zheng Ze sneered across his lips, and his eyes were staring at him.
From the initial surprise, Li Kai slowly came to his senses, "Sir, is it because of my wife and daughter?"
Faced with his problem, Zheng Ze shook his head again, "I'll exchange your life because it's a slight effort."
"So that's it..." Li Kai looked at the boy in front of him with a complicated look.
Zheng Ze stretched out his hand and pointed to Zi Lanxuan not far away, "Did you see that?"
Li Kai turned around and glanced at Zi Lanxuan. He knew where his daughter was.
"The night before yesterday, my man died there, and blood flowed all over the ground. Later, many people died there, and the blood almost passed through the soles of his shoes. When he woke up yesterday morning, he saw that the blood in front of the door was washed clean, just like those people died in a dream."
Looking at Zheng Ze who was talking, Li Kai gradually realized his way of speaking, "What do you want to say, sir?"
"I want to say that dying in Xinzheng is like pulling a grass, which cannot attract any attention. Your life or death may be even more despicable than grass."
Li Kai refused to comment on this kind of speech, "Why does the sir save me, just want to humiliate Li in person?"
Upon hearing this, Zheng Ze smiled softly and denied, "Mr. Li misunderstood. I am not so idle yet. Tonight I just treat you to a bowl of noodles and tell you by the way, you can't protect Nongyu and her mother, but I can."
Ideals are vulnerable in the face of cold reality.
Zheng Ze disliked this man whose fate seemed a bit sad. Liu Yi paid his life for what he owed him, and what he owed Nongyu and Mrs. Hu, so what should he pay for?
Zheng Ze is different from Han Fei. Lee Kai has suffered blood and fought hard for Korea. Han Fei will look up to him, but what does South Korea have to do with him?
"Maybe you have different opinions, but in Xinzheng, you can only bring danger to them, so you should leave earlier. I will guarantee the safety of Nongyu and his wife, so you don't have to worry. More than ten years have passed, and with your innocence and stupidity, you can still live a life. Fortunately." In the end, Zheng Ze's attitude was already very frank.
It’s not nice to say clearly, but this is the truth, this is reality. Not talking about reality but only love is irresponsible hooliganism.
Li Kai looked at him blankly. He really didn't expect Zheng Ze to say such a thing.
Is it because of my never-raising daughter?
