“No problem,” County Mayor Kong paused and asked some more, “By the way, are you really going to keep Constable Li and Qiao Lanping alive? I heard they’re planning to bring Qiao Lanlan and her mother back.”
“Yes, because I discovered that an underground force is helping them. They can be used to lure those people out.
“We’ll wait for all the underground forces here to gather before we capture them all in one fell swoop. Otherwise, once they’ve settled down and grown, they’ll cause us more trouble.”
“I understand.”
“Okay, I’ll leave you to your work. I have to go back and pack up as I’ll leave town tomorrow.” Zhou Huaiming turned around and walked out.
After he left, County Mayor Kong read the garrison’s situation and shook his head. “No wonder the previous governor acted like a king. How much did he spend bribing these people?”
On the other end, Gu Chengrui returned and saw the seafood feast on the table when he entered the interspace. He was drooling, especially after noticing the steamed abalone with garlic vermicelli and lobster.
“Look at you,” Zhou Ying scolded with a smile. “Hurry up and wash your hands.”
“I’ve been here for two months and haven’t had any seafood other than crab. I’m craving this so badly.” When Gu Chengrui said this, he saw a bottle of normal liquor on the table and paused. “Babe, let’s have the bottle of white wine, and that would be perfect to go with the seafood.”
“No problem. Let’s have a feast then.” Zhou Ying said as she put the alcohol aside and went to the warehouse to open a bottle of high-end white wine.
After they had their fill, Gu Chengrui told Zhou Ying about his visit to the Gu family. “We don’t have to give them anything more next time. Mrs. Liu is just insatiable, and the shamelessness of her attitude is unbearable.”
“True. Since they don’t like it, don’t even think about asking for more in the future.” Zhou Ying nodded in agreement.
After that, the couple got up and went to do their things.
The next day, as soon as Zhou Ying arrived at the restaurant, she saw Sun Hongliang entertaining Zhou Huaiming and County Mayor Kong. She paused for a moment before walking over and asking, “Brother Zhou, Mr. Kong, why are you here this early?”
“I’m returning to the military camp today, so I came to say goodbye and have a hot pot while I’m at it. By the way, can I take this pot with me?” Zhou Huaiming asked. “I also want to take away two sets of ingredients.”
“Of course. I’ll prepare the base ingredients for you, and you can buy the meat yourself.” Zhou Ying replied.
“Ah, I’ll have to trouble Manager Zhou to prepare two sets for me too.” County Mayor Kong requested.
“No problem. I’ll go and prepare now while you guys chat.” Zhou Ying later asked a worker to go to the clinic and call Gu Chengrui back.
Meanwhile, she went to the kitchen and started to pack the base and dipping sauce for them in a can.
After she was done, she wrote down the instructions and dosage.
The rest was made into a hotpot and served to them.
Zhou Huaiming saw her coming over and pointed to the seat next to Gu Chengrui. “Since the restaurant isn’t busy right now, let your workers prepare the rest, and we should have a meal together.”
“Sure, why not. This meal is our farewell party for Brother Zhou. I wish you a safe journey.” Zhou Ying said as she sat beside Gu Chengrui.
“You make it sound like I’m trying to escape from this meal.” Zhou Huaiming was stunned for a moment.
“No, isn’t this what we should do? If you come back, remember to come and find us.” Gu Chengrui quickly said. He placed half a plate of mutton into the pot and continued, “This lamb meat is tender and will be cooked as soon as it curls up. Help yourself.”
