C246 Yakuza is far away from home (1/2)
When a wanderer was far from home, he would especially miss his hometown dishes. Even if he had eaten a delicacy outside, it would still not be comparable to the dishes that his mother had cooked with her heart. The seemingly ordinary dishes had too many feelings that were difficult to express with words!
Chang Jing slowly savored each drop with a hint of awkwardness and happiness that filled her heart, completely ignoring everyone's teasing.
”Give me another bowl of rice!”
As usual, Chang Jing licked her lips and carried the bowl into Rou Xin's hands. Whenever this happened, Rou Xin would stand up and talk about how this child was getting bigger and bigger, and was becoming more disobedient, even not knowing how to eat. However, as he talked, he would go and fill the bowl up the rice for with a smile, and then carry it in front of, telling him to eat more.
A mother's love was great, how could it be repaid!
Seeing his satisfied look, Rou Xin smiled, put down the bowl in his hands and walked over.
”Why is this child getting older and more disobedient? Even his food …”
”Auntie, let me do it.” This was a rare occasion for Ka Buyi to be shy. She took the bowl in Rou Xin's hands and said, ”Big Brother Chang Jing has worked hard these past few days and she's still my superior. I should at least kiss his ass.”
Chang Jing, who was quickly picking up dishes like a hungry ghost, turned around and said to her, ”Are you trying to kiss ass? ”Don't even think about teasing me! I'll burn incense to worship Buddha!”
”Tsk, I'm not teasing you!” Ka Buyi fiercely placed the rice in front of him, pouting, ”Do you want to eat or not, hmph!”
Their fuming cheeks were indescribably adorable, causing everyone to laugh out loud once again.
At this moment, a military-looking person was brought in by a servant.
”Reporting to General Ye, the Great General invited you.”
”Hmm?” Chang Jing was puzzled, ”Didn't we say to rest for two days and not ask for military matters? Today is only the first day, why are you looking for me?”
”This subordinate isn't clear,” the soldier replied. ”In short, the general has ordered you to hurry over, he said that he has something to discuss with you!”
”Mm, alright then.” Chang Jing reluctantly put down the chopsticks in her hand and said, ”Everyone eat slowly, don't you dare eat all of your food. I'm not full yet!”
With that, he wiped his mouth and followed the soldier with large strides …
The general's resting room was arranged at the City Lord's Mansion. Firstly, it was convenient to discuss military affairs with the City Lord, and secondly, the conditions here were much better than outside of the camp.
”Where is the general?” Chang Jing was brought into a room by a soldier, and other than the man wearing the official's hat from Title, there was no one else. He could not help but ask, ”Didn't you say that you have something to discuss, why is he not here?”
”Am I not?” Hearing that, the man in the room laughed and replied, ”General Mo Yan should be on his way back to the capital by now. His Majesty ordered me to take charge of everything here after he left — — thus I became a great general.”
Although she did not understand why she had not been notified of such a large order, Chang Jing still performed a military salute respectfully.
”You must be Chang Jingye?” The man flipped a book on the table and read as he explained, ”She was born in a small city by the sea, crossing pool. She once studied in the Wenteng Mage Academy and represented the Ara in participating in the Magic Exchange Competition before disappearing …”
Listening to his own resume like words coming out from his mouth, Chang Jing's heart slowly started to feel disgusted with him.
”Hehe, not bad. Indeed, heroes produce youths!” The man closed the book, smiled and said, ”Hello, I'm Meng Yi — from now on, you belong to me!”
As he spoke, a haughty air rushed into the clouds, as if he was the best in the world.
Chang Jing was too lazy to reply, she only replied simply, ”Oh, hello.”
”Do you know why I called you here today?”
”How would I know?”
”You …” Seeing that he was looked down upon by his subordinate, Meng Yi could not help but feel annoyed, so he temporarily suppressed his purpose of coming over, and asked: ”Could it be that you have some sort of opinion towards me?”
”Heh, what does General Meng say? How can you and I not have an opinion when we meet for the first time?” Chang Jing answered, ”Besides, you are my boss, what do I have to say about you?”
