The night of the city of Ayr is still bustling.

At PM20:34, Liang Yi walked out of the business building, and a cool breeze hit his face. The cold is a precursor to violent storms. The rainy season won't be long.

"Well, it's April, and it's still so cold." Anna shuddered all over, and said to Liang Yi: "Mr. Liang, just deal with dinner casually, I want to go home quickly." ”

Liang Yi said, "Okay," turned his head and asked Nicole, who was maintaining a cold posture on the side, "What about you?" ”

Nicole said coldly, "Whatever." ”

Liang Yi smiled happily: "When I drove by in the afternoon, I found a Chinese restaurant nearby, so let's go there, how about it?" ”

Anna looked forward to it, "Okay, but I can't eat too spicy." ”

Liang Yi looked at Nicole again: "What about you?" ”

Nicole said coldly, "Whatever." ”

"Okay, then follow me."

Liang Yi led the way, looking for memories and walking towards the Chinese restaurant.

……

The Chinese restaurant is not very big, two stores with a few tables, a round table with long benches, a cabinet of sterilized chopsticks, seasoning salt, peppercorns, chili peppers, and vinegar on the table. In front of the door, a pair of double-flowered red lanterns are still lit with incandescent lights. Window and door paper-cut shadow puppetry, blue and white tokens hanging bead curtains.

Chinese people who do catering business abroad know what their selling point is, Chinese civilization has a long history like a long river, the only country without fault lines among the four ancient civilizations, and the strong national characteristics can always make these foreigners with only modern history shine.

I don't know why, maybe it was walking in the cold wind and seeing the smell of home, Liang Yi's heart was a little sour. Nowadays, the mountains and rivers are broken, displaced from other places, with the world in mind, powerless, and then 10,000 steps back, leaving behind the mountains and rivers and the country, for the word "home", it has long been worn out by more than 2,000 years of loneliness; Nowadays, you can only find some taste of home in a restaurant in a foreign country.

The owner of the restaurant is over half a hundred years old, wearing an old-fashioned white tank top, a pair of brown slacks, a slightly bloated body, and an amiable face. Unhurriedly wiping down the tables and chairs. There was no one else in the restaurant except the owner, and the waiter was nowhere to be seen.

"Mr. Liang, this is what you call a Chinese restaurant?" Anna didn't mind much, just looked at Nicole on the side, and underestimated: "This place doesn't match Miss Nicole's identity." ”

Nicole kept a straight face, and didn't comment on the good or bad of the restaurant, but said: "I've eaten Chinese food a few times, but it's not satisfactory." ”

Liang Yi smiled: "Then congratulations, just a beautiful experience, you can completely fall in love with Chinese food." ”

Nicole said coldly, "Change one." ”

Liang Yi said: "That's it." ”

Nicole frowned and glared at Liang Yi: "There is a star-rated restaurant at the end, and there is also Chinese food there, which is much cleaner." ”

"Where is this shop dirty?" Liang Yi strode into the restaurant, which was very clean, as clean as if it had been cleaned up by his mother after work. He raised his voice and said in fluent and standard Mandarin: "How can you sweep the world if you don't sweep a house?" As long as the hearts of the people are not dirty, the cooked food will be clean and delicious. ”

The boss probably heard the words "how can you sweep the world if you don't sweep a house", and turned around with emotion, only to find that there were 3 guests standing outside the door, one of whom was still Chinese. Warmly come forward to greet you,

"When you meet your fellow countrymen in a foreign country, you are a rare guest!"

Liang Yi smiled happily and asked, "Boss, is the store closed?" ”

The boss hesitated for a few seconds, grinned, and welcomed warmly: "No, no, please come in the three, right?" ”

Liang Yi raised his hand and made a forward gesture at Anna and Nicole behind him, and walked into the restaurant first. Nicole was about to turn away, but Anna hurriedly grabbed her so that she could talk and persuade her, and then walked into the restaurant.

"My surname is Wang, my name is Wang Xi, a native of Honghe, East China, hehehe, where are you, sir?" The boss smiled innocently, picked up three glasses, poured three cups of hot tea in a long-spout teapot, and asked.

"Zhao Qiansun Li, Zhou Wu Zheng Wang, surname," Liang Yi said, introducing himself: "My surname is Liang, a single name is Yizi, my ancestral home is southwest, Bashu area. ”

Boss Wang clapped his hands and exclaimed, "Hey! Coincidentally, I am also good at Sichuan cuisine, Mr. Liang has a good mouth today! ”

Anna pressed Nicole on the seat first, and then she sat down, shook her head with a smile and said, "No, no, I know Sichuan food, it's too spicy, boss, you better cook a few lighter." ”

"Okay!" Boss Wang readily agreed and handed over 3 menus.

"Mr. Liang, I don't know anything about Chinese food, why don't you have it?" Anna put down the menu.

Liang Yi glanced at Nicole and asked, "Then I ordered it?" ”

Nicole hugged her shoulders and spit out two words in a cold voice: "Whatever." ”

Liang Yi didn't look at the menu, and blurted out a few dish names: "Steamed egg flowers, braised tofu, Beijing sauce beef, spicy chicken...... Uh, forget it, the spicy chicken is too spicy, replace it with tomato scrambled eggs, then a cucumber preserved egg soup, and a bowl of rice for the last person. ”

Boss Wang took out a ballpoint pen and notebook, wrote down the name of the dish while chattering, and when he was done, he asked with a smile: "Mr. Liang, don't you want some wine?" ”

Liang Yi glanced at Nicole and Anna opposite, and said with a wry smile: "If there are no female passengers, I can still have a few drinks." ”

"Good. Wait a minute, I'll go to the stove right away. ”

Boss Wang tore off the menu, put away the ballpoint pen and notebook, turned around and walked into the kitchen.

……

After 15 minutes, Boss Wang put the last "cucumber preserved egg soup" on the table. "The dishes are ready, please use it slowly for 3 people."

"Boss Wang, you do everything yourself, if there are two more guests, you won't be busy." Liang Yi took out 3 pairs of chopsticks, kept one pair for himself, and handed one pair to Nicole and Anna.

Boss Wang found a farther position, took out a cigarette, lit it slowly, and sighed: "Originally, there were still a few old overseas Chinese patronizing, but now the entire Aier City is boycotting Huaxia, who would dare to go out?" Several of the guys in the store of Euro have quit, and the wife and children are staying at home, and I am watching the store alone, for fear of ......" He took a few big puffs of cigarette, for fear that there would be no follow-up.

Liang Yi frowned and said, "What are you afraid of?" ”

Boss Wang said sadly: "I'm afraid that the store will be smashed ......"

Liang Yiban lowered his face: "There is no royal law?" ”

Boss Wang shook his head and said, "I want to close the store and move back as a family." But the disaster in China is serious, and the European government has also restricted access," he sighed: "My shop, every morning when I get up, there is graffiti on the door. I was worried. ”

"It's too much, the police don't care?" Anna asked, sucking on her chopsticks and frowning.

"Don't mention it," Boss Wang raised the red ribbon on his left arm, and said bitterly: "Last time someone came to the police station, I wanted to arrest my whole family for a physical examination, I spent a lot of money, and I found a lot of relationships to get my wife and children back, I didn't let them go out, just for fear of being arrested again......" He looked at Liang Yi again, "That's why I'm surprised, Mr. Liang, you dare to appear in the city center so late, and you didn't tie the red ribbon, if you are seen by those police, you have to be arrested back to the police station, and you can't get out without 1 or 20,000 banknotes." ”

"Smack!" Nicole put down her chopsticks, her eyebrows were full of heroism, and asked, "Boss, you tell me, which policeman blackmailed you?" My housekeeper's boyfriend is the captain of the police force. I let him hold your grievances. ”

This Nizi seems to be high, but she didn't expect it to be quite righteous. Of course, Liang Yi knows who Nicole's "butler boyfriend" is, Locks, a despicable and greedy guy. I wonder if he's dead?

Liang Yi glanced at his watch, PM21:04, there were nearly 3 hours left before midnight, if nothing else, Locks would soon have an accident.

Boss Wang smiled and waved his hand: "No need, no need, the matter is over, my store will be closed until mid-April at most." I have made a lot of money in business over the years, and now I just hope to survive this disaster by hiding at home. ”

"It's a pity, boss, your food is so good, I still want to order your takeout every day in the future, but it will be closed so soon," Anna scooped up a piece of hibiscus custard with a spoon and praised: "Look at this thing, it's the same as jelly ice cream, soft and hot," she poured the custard into her mouth, sipped it twice with her tongue and swallowed it into her stomach, exclaiming: "It's amazing, so soft that you don't even have to chew it, hehe, it's delicious......

Nicole lowered her head, chewed slowly and didn't speak, in short, the chopsticks didn't stop much.

Liang Yi served two bowls of rice, handed them to Anna and Nicole, and said with a smile: "Greasy dishes, with soft and sweet rice, will have a special taste." ”

"Thank you, Mr. Liang." Anna smiled sweetly.

"Thank you." Nicole squeezed the corners of her mouth, barely in response.

Liang Yi only served a bowl of preserved egg soup himself. Savor the soup in the bowl and the beauty on the other side.

Eat, drink soup, and gossip about things and nothing. This meal was quite comfortable, and Nicole also put down her shelf a little and looked at Liang Yi differently.

……

"Yo? Boss Wang, is business good today? There are still people who come so late. ”

A sentence that should have been a congratulatory sentence was said to be scathing.

Five non-mainstream young people with strange hairstyles and dirty costumes swaggered into the restaurant, took out a few packs of cigarettes from the counter without consent, and distributed them;

A young man wearing a black rivet jacket with nose rings and lip nails, who seemed to be the boss of the gang, said arrogantly with a cigarette in his mouth: "Boss Wang, I didn't bring any money today, but the cigarette money was on credit first, what do you think?" ”

Boss Wang hurriedly ran to the counter, locked the cabinet at the cash register, and shouted at the young man in a riveted jacket: "Jenny! I have a guest here today, and I will give you these packs of cigarettes, please leave! ”

The young man in the black jacket named "Jenny" suddenly made a gesture, and several younger brothers behind him rushed into the restaurant and walked directly to the table where Liang Yi was sitting. ”

"Hey! Then you'll make a lot of money tonight! Jenny jumped up from his chair excitedly and urged, "Quick, get him up and take him to the police station to get the bounty!" ”

"This is my guest!"

Boss Wang was anxious and was about to step forward to stop him, but Jenny suddenly took out a pistol from his pocket and threatened Boss Wang's forehead: "Old thing, for the sake of your packs of free cigarettes, I won't trouble you, but if you dare to hinder me from getting rich, believe it or not, I'll give you a shot!" ”

Boss Wang didn't dare to move anymore, and said in a panic: "Jenny, I'll give you as much money as you want, why embarrass my guests?" ”

Jenny smiled coldly, withdrew his pistol, and reminded: "Boss Wang, if I point a gun at you and then ask you to give money, then I won't become a robber?" I don't want to go to prison again, it's better to catch a Chinese person, there is a bounty, and I can have a good relationship with the police, why not? ”

"Smack!" Nicole slammed the table, got up and yelled at the thugs, "Can't you imagine that there are still you hooligans in El City, all of whom are homeless and have no parental education?" ”

Usually in such cases, a woman's anger does not act as a deterrent at all, and not only that, but she may also be humiliated. Talking about education with a group of hooligans who have fathers and no mothers is not as good as playing the piano to a cow.

“WC！ Boss, come and see this girl! It's so familiar! ”

"Miss Nicole, haven't you seen her sexy photo?"

"It turns out that real people are so beautiful......

Several delinquent youths took out their mobile phones one after another and shot wildly at Nicole. Nicole is probably used to showing herself in front of the camera, not avoiding it, not covering her face, staring at a pair of eyes, so that the young people remember her angry appearance.

"Less TM and gets down to business! Take this Chinese man away! Jenny raised his gun to the back of Liang Yi's head and sneered: "Sir, don't embarrass us, let's cooperate?" ”

Liang Yi put down the soup bowl in his hand, slowly stood up from his seat, turned around and pointed his head at the muzzle, and said softly: "Shoot." ”

Everyone was stunned for a few seconds, including Nicole and Anna.

"Boss, he'...... Tell you to shoot? The dreadlocked young man revisited his old words, slightly skeptical.

Jenny seemed to have heard a big joke, and the muzzle of the gun was pressed to Liang Yi's forehead, and he said fiercely: "You think I don't dare to shoot?" ”

Liang Yi lit a cigarette, took a puff, spit on Jenny's face, and said defiantly: "Then you can shoot." ”

Jenny stared at the fierce eyes, the hand holding the gun trembled slightly, and his fingers were on the trigger, for fear that he would pull it off at an impulse.

Liang Yi said coldly: "Although your eyes reveal fierceness, there is no murderous anger at all, you don't dare to shoot and kill people at all, you are just a gangster who has achieved nothing, has a father and no mother, and is destined to not be on the stage." ”

Jenny trembled and scolded: "Shut up! ”

Liang Yi walked forward with the muzzle of the gun, he took a small step forward, Jenny took a small step back, he took a big step forward, Jenny took a big step back. Invisibly, Jenny became his marionette, pulling and pulling, entering and throwing, all under command.

Gradually, Jenny was forced to the door of the restaurant by Liang Yi, his hands were still shaking, but the trigger was never pulled. Obviously, this Chinese man's courage and courage have already won him too much.

Jenny saw the anger in Liang Yi's eyes, as terrifying as those murderers in prison!

"Heh, are you a fool for me? If I shoot, won't I be a murderer? Besides, I'm going to get you back and get your bounty, I-"

"Coward."

Liang Yi spit out the word lightly, directly interrupting Jenny's far-fetched explanation, and pressed Jenny's hand holding the gun, pinched it fiercely on his wrist, "click", and the sound of bone cracking was like breaking a sugar cane.

"Ahh Jenny was in pain, his hand let go, and the pistol slipped from his palm. Liang Yi quickly took the pistol, pulled the bolt and loaded the safety, but pressed against Jenny's forehead, and asked in a cold voice: "I'm changing you first, guess, do I dare to shoot?" ”

No one would think that Liang Yi would not shoot, including Boss Wang, Anna, and Nicole, who all thought that Liang Yi was likely to explode Jenny's head with a single bullet.

Jenny held his right hand, which was broken to the ground, knelt on the ground and wailed in pain, begging for mercy: "I'm sorry, don't shoot, don't kill me......"

Killing a scum is just a matter of falling with a knife in his hands for Liang Yi, but he is not a messenger of justice, not only is there no reward for eliminating harm for the people, but he will be wanted as a murderer, and the gains outweigh the losses.

Liang Yi used the gun to point at several other thugs, and said coldly: "There are 13 bullets in this gun, and you can eat 2 and have the left...... If you don't want to eat the bullets, delete all the photos you just took on your phone, and then kneel in front of me in turn," he raised his left hand, glanced at the time on his watch, and continued: "It's 9:18:21 p.m., and I'm only giving you 30 seconds to do these things, which means that at 18:51, you all have to kneel in front of me, or you're going to die...... Okay, you've wasted 15 seconds talking, and you still have 15 seconds to go. ”

Where did the gangsters dare to delay, they rushed to kneel in front of Liang Yi and take a picture, holding their mobile phones while trembling, while quickly operating the "delete" photos.

Liang Yi pulled out the pistol magazine, unloaded the bullet, and warned the thugs kneeling in front of him: "Your parents can't educate you, and I'm too lazy to bother." In a word, if you dare to harass Boss Wang in the future, I will definitely let you know what is called the pain of life is worse than death. ”

"Da ......" pistol bullets fell to the ground like beads, and with each flick, the hearts of the little gangsters trembled.

"I'll give you another ride," Liang Yi kicked the thugs out of the restaurant one by one, threw out the unloaded pistols, and said, "Get out of here!" ”

The thugs supported each other, and they ran away with a cigarette.

"Mr. Liang, you really scared me to death, how dare you gamble with him......" Boss Wang wiped the sweat overflowing from his forehead, and his face turned pale with fright.

Liang Yi lit a cigarette, his face was not wavering, and he said in a calm tone: "Boss Wang, I personally think that you still close this shop, since the kid with the severed hand can get a gun, there must be a black background, so you have to guard against it." ”

Boss Wang nodded and said, "Mr. Liang is right, I don't dare to open this store tomorrow." ”

Liang Yi stepped on the counter, pointed to the 'Chinese cigarettes' in the cigarette cabinet, and said with a smile: "Boss, if you want to close the door, give me two Chinese cigarettes?" ”

Boss Wang said happily: "Okay! It's okay to have as much as you want...... Wine? Authentic imported East China Lao Baigan. ”

Liang Yi compared a scissor hand and said with a smile: "There are only three things, only two of them, boss, I only need two bottles, I don't want more." ”
