123: Chapter 123 123: Chapter 123 The person sitting next to Pig Hu is a security guard from Hunan, who reportedly has a relative working in the property managent here.
He looks down on Pig Hu’s sloppy style and that greasy, middle-parted long hair; he also despises the old man’s laziness and rascality, along with his petty attention to detail.
He could even dig out a used aluminum toothpaste tube from under the wall corner cabinet, claiming he was going to sell it for scrap, which made him despise Pig Hu even more.
However, Pig Hu doesn’t care; thinking himself as Hu Xiaoye, after all, he is soone with a reputation in the worldly society, able to secure a al wherever he goes.
But he ca here for Ye Tian, who resembles his younger self—stubborn as a mule and quite daring.
They say people die for wealth and birds die for food, but a loyal official also needs a heart full of loyalty and courage.
Ever since Ye Tian pulled him out of detention, he has seen things in a new light.
Following this youngster might not bring him a fortune, but at least it wouldn’t leave his life bland and dull.
Loyal officials and righteous masters, that’s settled.
Zhang Houtu has the heaviest duties, but he is also the most pleasing one.
Many residents have written letters of comndation to the property managent, praising this big guy standing at the gate, and the letters often highlight fine details: his salute is very standard, he has a nice smile, his teeth are white, and even so mischievous ladies wrote in their hearts, “I like his smile, warm like the sun in winter.
I like it even more when he blushes on the sides of his cheeks while talking to , like fiery clouds on the horizon, this adorable big boy.”
“Hahaha…”
That night, Ye Tian vividly read the content of the letters, causing everyone to burst into laughter, except for Zhang Houtu, who was nonchalantly cooking.
“Old Zhang, you’re famous now.
It looks like it won’t be long before so das drag you into bed.
With your physique, at least a ‘nine tis a night lad’!” Pig Hu joked shalessly, his center-parted long hair swaying disgustingly with the movent of his body.
Zhang Houtu sat on a stool, waving for everyone to co over and eat, even carefully spreading his jacket on Liu Zhongshi’s stool to make it warr to sit on.
“None of the people living here are good.”
“Good people don’t last long, the wicked live a millennium.
Have you ever heard of good people moving into Beiping City’s villas?
Your words are just nonsense.” Pig Hu said disdainfully, having been adrift in the worldly society for fifty years, he has gone through everything he should have and has seen all varieties of good, bad, non-existent, and ugly people.
As a tomb raider for many years, the people lying in coffins aren’t scary, it’s the people still walking on two legs who are the scariest.
Liu Zhongshi kept silent, just bowing his head and eating, but after hearing Pig Hu’s words, he finally mumbled, “Don’t generalize, there are still more good people in this society.”
“Yes, yes, there are more good people.
Uncle Liu, co on, have so dishes, they’re nice and hot.”
Pig Hu is just an; once a well-known Tomb Raider Hero, he even dared to raid the Evil Tomb from two thousand years ago and has a few lives on his hands.
He fears no heaven or earth, but he is afraid of two people, one is Shen Jingwei, who dismantles bones for a hobby, and the other is Liu Zhongshi in front of him, who has so connections to his master.
Look, he’s eagerly serving food to him.
Ignoring Pig Hu, Ye Tian rembered the words Zhang Houtu had just said and asked, “Old Zhang, do you feel anything odd about the people here?”
“There’s no shortage of odd people here: treacherous n, cunning won, not a single good thing among them.
But if you’re talking about soone special, there really is one.”
“Who?”
Zhang Houtu shook his head, “I’ve only seen him once, driving an Audi A4, looked to be about forty, but I don’t know his actual age—people nowadays keep up their appearances, hard to tell.
Dignified and scholarly, awe-inspiring without anger, you can tell by his temperant, he’s sobody.”
An Audi A4, Ye Tian suddenly rembered a man surnad Gou in Huaizhou City, who also drove an Audi A4.
“Don’t think too much, definitely just soone putting on airs.
Ah, ah, ah, too spicy for .
Xiao Zhang, next ti don’t add so many chili peppers when cooking.”
“The heat can’t even shut your mouth.
Just eat your food.”
“Ah, ah, ah!
I’ll listen to Uncle Liu.”
Zhang Houtu gave him a look and continued talking to Ye Tian, “I’ve been with the old master for so many years, not to say I can read people as well as he can, but I’m still a bit better than the average person.
This man, he really does have a unique temperant, think about it, the people who can live here and still personally offer a cigarette, those with such magnanimity, how can they not achieve great things?”
Ye Tian nodded silently, also ntally noting this Audi A4.
“Ye Tian.”
“Hmm?”
“Let’s talk about you.”
“What about ?”
“You asked if I felt anything special about the people here.
If you hadn’t noticed sothing wrong, you definitely wouldn’t have asked that question,” Zhang Houtu said while holding his bowl, that poor little bowl looked pitiful in his hands.
After thinking for a mont, Ye Tian still shook his head, “Nothing.
Just feeling sothing’s off.
Can’t put my finger on it; everyone just be careful.”
“Yeah, I always feel like those guys we beat up last ti are harboring grudges, holding back so long, they’re probably looking for revenge soon.”
Pig Hu this ti did not interrupt, since he had no involvent in the beating.
Silence fell over the dinner, and the four people all focused on eating.
It must be said, Zhang Houtu has a finesse despite his size; such a big man actually could cook a good al, far better than that pile of instant noodle boxes in the corner.
After eating their fill, the n dispersed.
Zhang Houtu stayed behind to clean up, washing the dishes and soup spoons, and in an instant transford from an iron-hard tough guy into a thrice-excellent houseman.
About the pair of observing eyes, Ye Tian did not ntion it; it wasn’t worth worrying Zhang Houtu over such a trivial matter.
Besides, those eyes were only perceived by himself, and who could guarantee that feelings were free from error?
Shaking his head, he took it as a joke.
As usual, he patrolled with a flashlight.
He had reported the dangerous areas discovered during the dayti to the property managent.
Although this was a high-end resort community with quite effective managent, for the sake of safety, Ye Tian continued to patrol according to the managent regulations, then decided to check those areas again after completing his patrol.
Turning off the flashlight, he walked forward, guided by the street light.
“Woof, woof, woof.”
A few barks ca from ahead, a silhouette walking towards Ye Tian.
Ye Tian recognized the person; a resident here, who ca out for a walk every night.
The Golden Retriever was her pet.
