After returning to the restaurant, Zhang Han began to prepare dinner.
At 5:30 p.m., Zi Yan came back. She first went to the bedroom to change into loose clothes, and then came out to sit on the sofa. Mengmeng came over to Zi Yan and hugged her long legs, trying to look like a well-behaved little darling.
“MaMa, can I invite my classmates home?”
“Invite your classmates to our home?” Zi Yan paused.
“Yes,” Mengmeng responded and looked at Zi Yan nervously.
“Judging from her expression, she may not agree with me!
“What can I do if she doesn’t agree?”
While Mengmeng was feeling anxious, Zi Yan smiled, reached out a hand, and lightly pinched Mengmeng’s pink face, saying, “Of course you can.”
Before, when she was downstairs and passing by the kitchen, Zhang Han had told her about it.
“Ah! MaMa agrees! Great, MaMa is good!” Mengmeng was so excited and overjoyed.
Sitting beside them, Zhou Fei couldn’t help laughing. She felt that the little girl was so cute that she wanted to have such a baby sooner.
“I want a baby.
“First of all, I have to find a husband!”
“Mengmeng, you should invite your classmates in advance tomorrow, so that they can ask for their parents’ permission and then be brought over here,” Zi Yan smiled and added.
Zi Yan had lived in San Diego for a few years. The population density of foreign countries was not as high as that of Hua nation, and she rarely saw such a crowded scene in the shopping mall. The living habits of foreigners were also different from hers. Even in some places, if she wanted to invite friends to have a party, she had to invite them a week in advance.
It was much more convenient to do such things in Hua nation, and she could even call her friends at noon and say, “Come to my house in the evening and have a drink!”
The students invited by Mengmeng were all children. It was not safe for them to go out alone, so Zi Yan wanted to inform their parents first. If they were high school students, Mengmeng could invite them at any time.
“Okay, I’ll tell Stefen, Martin, Muen, and Yihan tomorrow,” Mengmeng replied seriously.
Mengmeng had adapted to the life of the kindergarten and made many friends.
After supper, Zhang Han and Zi Yan took Mengmeng out for a walk on the street for a while.
At 10:30 p.m., Mengmeng lay beside Zhang Han, listening to a story and falling asleep slowly.
“Will you still have to work on Saturday?” Zhang Han asked in a low voice.
“It seems that… I’m going on a business trip. On Friday, I will go to Anfu on the mainland to participate in a propaganda program of a TV series, sing the newly modified theme song, and then have some interaction with the actors of the series. I can’t go home until Saturday night, so I’m afraid I can’t attend Mengmeng’s party,” Zi Yan replied.
“I see. I’ll entertain them myself. By the way, in a week, I’ll be going out for a few days,” Zhang Han said.
“Going out? Where will you go?” Zi Yan suddenly raised her head, blinked her beautiful big eyes, and looked at Zhang Han curiously.
Zhang Han didn’t go out often. He liked to take care of Mengmeng and play with her at home.
Zi Yan had been used to her family’s lifestyle. Every time she went on a business trip, she didn’t have to worry about the father and daughter at home. Therefore, she was a little surprised to hear the news today.
“I’m going to a relic to get some treasures,” Zhang Han replied.
“Relic? What level is it?” Zi Yan asked.
“Well…” Zhang Han thought about it and then replied with a smile, “Class B.”
“Class B? Isn’t that a high level? Will it be dangerous? I’ll worry about you.”
. “Haha.” Zhang Han chuckled, touched Zi Yan’s neck, and whispered, “Don’t worry, it’s not dangerous for me.”
“Are you going alone? Do you want Elder Wang and others to accompany you? They are good helpers,” Zi Yan thought and said.
“Don’t disturb them.” Zhang Han shook his head slightly and said, “The relics are in the north of Shenzhen, not far away. I’ll leave at five in the morning and come back at about four in the afternoon.”
Although the Wangs could follow him and explore the class-B relics, in terms of strength, only Wang Zhanpeng was a little more powerful among them, who hadn’t reached the Grand Master Late-stage yet. As for Wang Zhanzong and Wang Zhanzhong, their strength was not sufficient to explore the relics.
This time, they would encounter some talents from small worlds.
Zhang Han didn’t know what the talents looked like.
But they were Ye Longyuan, the Devil Incarnate and core disciple of the Lihun Sect, the top sect of Witch Hidden World; Shi Fenghou, the Little Roc and genius of the Wind Snow School; and Mu Xue the female demon, the talent of the Luo Fu Sword sect. All of them were competitive martial artists, and Zhang Han had heard from Lu Xiong that they had reached the stage of Grand Master Peak several years ago.
The whole strength of the team exploring the ruins was very high. In addition to the three talents, there were other outstanding disciples from different sects.
Even if these warriors were fierce, they would have to be careful in the dangerous class-B relics because no one knew what was in them.
Zhang Han talked with Zi Yan for half an hour and assured her that he would return home safe and sound. Zi Yan was a little relieved and fell asleep in Zhang Han’s arms.
The night went by silently.
The next day, Zhang Han returned to the company after taking Mengmeng to kindergarten.
In Zi Qiang’s room on the ninth floor, Zhao Feng, Xu Yong, Ah Hu, Liu Qingfeng, Zi Qiang and his wife, Zi Yan, and Zhou Fei were waiting for him.
“Han, so you’ve come!” After Zhang Han entered the house, Zi Qiang smiled and said, “I’m going out for a few days this time, and I’ll have a good rest after that. When I get back, I’ll continue playing go with you.”
“Ah, okay, I’m always waiting for my father-in-law.” Zhang Han nodded with a smile, finding that his father-in-law really liked playing go.
He thought for a while and added, “I’ll study the tactics carefully these days. When my father-in-law comes back, I may win the game.”
“Ah? Han, you are too young to win the game. As veterans are more able than recruits, my chess skill is not as gentle as it seems. I like changing moves, and I’m not kidding.” Zi Qiang groaned.
Zi Yan almost burst out laughing.
She wanted to tell her father not to be so proud, because it was Zhang Han who deliberately let him win those games!
“Zhang Han,” Liu Qingfeng smiled and said, “I need your help.”
Liu Qingfeng always called him Mr. Zhang on social occasions and Zhang Han on private occasions, which brought him closer to Zhang Han.
Zhang Han almost regarded Liu Qingfeng as his friend, so he replied without hesitation, “What’s the matter?”
“Well, I recently had some problems with a cooperation project, which made me the target of a killer organization in Japan. I’m not afraid of them, but I’m worried about my daughter studying in a University in Lin Hai City. So I discussed it with Zhao Feng and wanted the security group to protect her. This should be the first business of the security company, right? At first, the bodyguard they arranged was Lihua, but she is a Peak-Strength martial artist, and most of the members of the killing organization are at the same level as her. Therefore, I want Ah Hu or someone else to protect my daughter.” Liu Qingfeng told Zhang Han his plan.
“I see, it’s free this time. Just let them go.” Zhang Han nodded his head, looked at Ah Hu and Xu Yong, and said, “Who would like to go?”
“Well…” Ah Hu, Xu Yong, and Elder Meng exchanged looks with each other.
“I’ll go.” Ah Hu grinned and said, “I happen to have lived in Lin Hai City for two years.”
Xu Yong should arrange the daily affairs of the security company. Lao Meng was introverted and only liked training. Zhao Feng, as the eldest disciple of the boss, should ensure the safety of the restaurant.
Although Ah Hu also wanted to stay in the company for training and bragging with friends in night clubs, he was the most suitable person for a business trip. When he was needed, he took the initiative to stand out.
“Is one enough? Ah Hu can take more people there,” Zhang Han looked at Liu Qingfeng and asked.
. “That’s enough.” Liu Qingfeng waved his hands happily. “I have hired a lot of security guards at a high price to protect my daughter, including martial artists and professionals. Now we are only short one expert. It’s enough to deal with the killer organizations with Ah Hu.”
“Okay.” Zhang Han nodded.
“Ah Hu.” Liu Qingfeng stood up, hesitated for a moment, and made a gesture to Xiao Ling.
Xiao Ling took out a golden bank card from her wallet.
Liu Qingfeng took the card, handed it to Ah Hu and said, “Thank you. There is 10 million on this card. When you use it up, you can tell the housekeeper, and he will transfer money into it.”
“Huh? Chairman Liu, you are so boring. I don’t need it.” Ah Hu refused the card and said, “The boss asked me to go there. Even if you want to pay us, it is not me who should take it.”
“Hahaha, it’s not a reward, but for your expenses in Lin Hai City. Well… if my daughter forgets to bring her wallet, you can also pay for her, which will be more convenient.” Liu Qingfeng laughed.
“This…” Ah Hu scratched his head and looked at Zhang Han.
“You can take the money for travel expenses that Chairman Liu gave you,” Zhang Han said with a casual smile.
“Thank you for your kindness.” Ah Hu grinned and accepted the bank card.
“By the way, Ah Hu, I have to talk to you first.” Liu Qingfeng’s stopped smiling and said, “My daughter is a bit petulant, her mood is changeable and she may lose her temper occasionally. If she offends you, please forgive her.”
“Don’t worry, Chairman Liu. For dealing with this kind of little girl, er… protecting her, I’m a professional.” Ah Hu was amused by himself while making the promise.
Liu Qingfeng was amused as well. At this moment, he wondered if it was a good decision to send Ah Hu to Lin Hai City.
“It’s almost time, Han. We have to go to work first.” Zi Qiang stood up and looked at Xu Xinyu and Liu Qingfeng. “Let’s go,” he said.
They went downstairs.
After Liu Qingfeng, his bodyguards, and Xiao Ling got in a car, Zi Qiang and Xu Xinyu got in another one, accompanied by Liu Qingfeng’s other bodyguards.
“I’m going to the studio. Do you want to visit it?” Zi Yan asked, holding Zhang Han’s arm.
“Let’s go.” Zhang Han nodded. After they entered the studio on the 12th floor, Zhang Han sat aside quietly and listened to Zi Yan’s singing.
At 11 o’clock in the morning, Zhang Han went back to the restaurant to cook. After sending the food to Mengmeng, he went to the company again. At 12:30, he went to the company’s restaurant with Zi Yan and Zhou Fei.
The restaurant on the upper floor of the bar had a large area, which was divided into a non-member area and a member area. There was a passageway on the side of the restaurant to reach the member area.
The seats in the restaurant were separated by screens, and the surrounding decoration was mainly in green color, which was refreshing.
In the area of normal eaters, there were square tables for two, four, and six people.
The tables and chairs in this area were also separated by some decorations. Although it was not as luxurious as the member area, it also met the standards of high-end restaurants.
Learning that Zhang Han had come to the restaurant today, Wang Long was going to show off his cooking skills.
He carefully cooked some dishes that Zhang Han didn’t often cook.
Half an hour later…
Several waiters with trays followed Wang Long to Zhang Han and Zi Yan.
“Mr. Zhang, Miss Zi,” Wang Long smiled politely and said, “crispy apple, pearl tofu, braised fish bone in brown sauce, sauce fillet, egg roll stuffed with minced pork, “eight-treasure” duck and pea flour cake.
“As for the main food, I made fish balls with pork stuffing. The raw material is the meat of Tai Lake Black Swine, which tastes delicious and mellow.”
“Thank you,” Zi Yan said with a smile.
Zhang Han also nodded with a smile, for Wang Long was really good at cooking.
And every dish was carefully designed to give Zhang Han and Zi Yan visual enjoyment.
In fact, Zhang Han was good at home cooking and didn’t know much about real cuisine, but his exclusive ingredients were really good.
Sometimes before cooking, Zhang Han would search the Internet for recipes first.
But Zhang Han was a gourmet, and Wang Long couldn’t match him in this respect.
After all, Zhang Han had lived in the Cultivation World for 500 years, and there was no food that he hadn’t tasted.
…
The next day…
A flight from Hong Kong slowly landed at Pudong Airport, Lin Hai City.
The area of the airport was very large, and people kept coming and going.
A man, who was nearly 1.8 meters tall and well-proportioned, was wearing casual pants, black short sleeves, and a thin coat. Looking left and right, he mumbled, “Well, there’s not much change here compared to a few years ago.”
Suddenly, a long-haired girl wearing a red low-cut halter dress and high heels walked past him. Her long legs were very striking.
“Nice shape!”
“Hey, beauty, where is the subway?” The man quickly followed the girl.
The girl stopped and looked at Ah Hu, frowning. “I’ve never been on the subway before. How would I know where the subway station is? Look at the road signs yourself.”
“Beauty, you have a nice shape.” The man looked the girl up and down and finally fixed his eyes on the girl’s chest. He wanted to know what kind of image he would see if the neckline of this skirt was lower.
Such a sexy girl was unusual.
“You shameless hooligan! You are doomed to take the subway all your life.” The girl seemed to be in a bad mood. She stared at Ah Hu fiercely and turned to leave quickly.
“Why are you dressed like this? Isn’t it for us men to appreciate?”
The man turned his mouth and said loudly to the girl’s back, “Hey, beauty, be careful when you wiggle your hips. It’s easy for you to lose balance.”
“Swish, swish, swish!”
All the passers-by turned their gaze at the girl.
The girl quickened her pace and fled.
“Well, she’s not enthusiastic at all.” The man mumbled and walked forward for a while, finding the way to the subway.
The man was Ah Hu, who came to Lin Hai to carry out a task. He had taken off his business suit and put on casual clothes, which made him feel like he was on vacation.
After seven or eight minutes, he arrived at the subway station. Before buying a ticket, he took out his mobile phone to check the messages.
“No. 3 single-family villas, Tomson Riviera, Miss Liu Jiaran. Looking at the photos, she’s a pretty girl. Oh, no, no, I can’t be confused by appearances. It’s said that she’s a little witch, and I should be careful.
“I should take line 11 first, then change to line 3.”
While talking to himself, Ah Hu bought a ticket and got on the subway.
It was one o’clock in the afternoon, and there were not many people in the subway.
Before Ah Hu came to Lin Hai, he got a special hairstyle, which looked like a cockscomb that was dyed yellow on top. This wild style made Ah Hu look like a blooming flower.
When he reached the destination and walked out of the subway station, Ah Hu looked up and saw the Oriental Pearl not far away.
“Here it is.” Ah Hu whistled and walked around the residential area, which took him a lot of time. Finally, he found a remote corner and jumped into the community.
Though the area of the community was very large, the single villa was conspicuous, and Ah Hu soon came to No. 3.
“Not bad. They are really professional.” Ah Hu looked at the security personnel and found that there was almost no blind corner in their protection area.
Then Ah Hu went straight up to them.
Seeing Ah Hu coming alone, the three men in black in front of the main door looked at each other and made a few gestures. After one of them retreated into the villa, the other man went over to Ah Hu and said calmly without expression, “This is a private area.”
“I’m here to see Liu Jiaran,” Ah Hu said casually.
“Huh?” The man frowned a little and said, “Miss Liu doesn’t welcome guests.”
“Forget it. Have Housekeeper Fang come out to see me.” Ah Hu waved his hand.
The man was a little surprised, but he didn’t say anything more. He stepped back five steps, waved to the other man, and asked him to inform the housekeeper.
Two minutes later, Housekeeper Fang, who was about 50 years old, came quickly to them.
“Who are you?” Housekeeper Fang was surprised to see Ah Hu and asked.
“Swish!”
The two security guards beside him were immediately put on alert with their right hand on their waist.
They had thought that the stranger knew the housekeeper, but he had tricked them.
“What did you say?” Ah Hu was stunned and looked at the housekeeper in confusion. “Elder, are you teasing me?”
Housekeeper Fang was also a Peak Strength Warrior who had just reached the stage of Peak Strength.
Ah Hu was a bit confused because Housekeeper Fang should have seen his picture in advance.
“You are Mr. Ah Hu?” Housekeeper Fang looked at Ah Hu carefully, smiled, and shook his head. “Welcome, Mr. Ah Hu. Your appearance is different from the photo, so I didn’t recognize you just now. Come in.”
“Photo…” Ah Hu grinned. “I used the beautification app to take care of it.”
“Hahaha, I was wondering why your skin was darker, your eyes were smaller, and your lips were thicker. You look really different from your picture, so I didn’t recognize you. Mr. Ah Hu. I’m sorry,” Housekeeper Fang said apologetically.
“You…” Ah Hu was so embarrassed that his mouth twitched.
He was nearly driven mad.
“Is he saying I’m ugly? Am I ugly?
“This guy is too frank. If he was a member of the underground forces, he would be killed in a week!”
Ah Hu managed to control his mood and walked through the gate of the villa with Housekeeper Fang.
“Mr. Ah Hu, please wait a moment. I’ll call Miss Liu,” in front of the villa door, Housekeeper Fang said and then walked into the villa quickly. But he did not close the door completely.
About one minute later…
Ah Hu heard a girl’s very pleasant voice, but the contents of her words made him uncomfortable.
“Bring that dog in!”
