Chapter: 2791

Mack Xing shook his head helplessly and reminded him, "Remember, the more auspicious fate is, the less you should provoke it. He's a true dragon-natured person, and we're not his opponent. No matter what, we cannot stand on the opposite side of him, understood?"

Mack nodded lightly: "I understand."

Mack Xing nodded and said: "Alright, let's find a place to eat lunch first and then come back to turn around in the afternoon."

Leaf did not put too much thought into Mack Xing and his grandson.

No matter if they were Feng Shui masters or Xuan arts masters, as long as they had hostility towards themselves, they would make them leave immediately.

Moreover, he was very clear in his mind that although these two people were stronger than ordinary people by a lot, compared to himself, they were still far behind. If he really took action, his abilities wouldn't be much different from those of Yu Jinghai back then.

So, his attention is now focused entirely on Guo Zhiqiu's side.

He is eagerly waiting for Guo Zhiqiu to give him a clear response as soon as possible.

This way, once Guo Zhiqiu comes to Jinling, he can immediately start building the ocean transportation company and quickly develop this business. When that time comes, it will definitely make the Su family have a harder time.

"Haoyuanjie came out of class and returned to his office, where he immediately asked him: 'Yedchen, has Qiutan sent you information yet?'

Yedchen shook his head: 'Not yet, Haoyu uncle, she said that after leaving the base, there was no network, so we have to wait until they get back to contact the outside world.'

Haoyuanjie nodded and let out a sigh, saying: 'Just now during class, my right eye kept twitching, it feels like some kind of bad omen, so I'm worried too.'

Yedchen smiled and said: 'Don't worry about this too much now, Haoyu uncle. Just be patient and wait for Qiutan's news. They are six hours behind us over there, so if they get back by 8 pm local time, it would already be midnight here. So just sit tight and I'll contact you as soon as I receive any information.'

Haoyuanjie sighed and said: 'There's nothing we can do but wait now.'

He then quickly told Yedchen: 'Let's go, Yedchen. I've booked a spot at Jining Lou nearby. We can meet up for lunch there!'

Jining Lou is a well-known local dining brand in Jinling, with several branches in the city, specializing in authentic Jinling cuisine, which is deeply loved by locals.

As we arrived at the entrance of Jining Lou, Haoyuanjie introduced Yedchen: 'My ancestors for three generations have been true-blue Jinling locals. From my birth to my youth, I've always lived in Jinling. Later, I went abroad to study and settled down in America. After being away for several decades, I returned to live here again. When I go back to school, the teachers' canteen provides free meals with various dishes, but every day at noon, I still run here to enjoy a bite of authentic Jinling food.'"

As he finished speaking, Haoyuanjie asked Yedchen: "But after living in Jinling for so many years, won't you get tired of eating?"

Yedchen smiled slightly and said: "Actually, I've never had much pursuit of eating. During my ten years at the orphanage, every day was a plain meal with no complaints. Later, when I went to work on construction sites, drinking water all day felt just fine too."

Haoyuanjie couldn't help but sigh: "How did you adapt to this kind of lifestyle after falling from such a high point?"

Yedchen laughed and said: "My parents taught me since I was young to not be fond of material things and not be sad about what's missing, so there was nothing for me to adapt to. Just take it as it is, whether it's living the good life or eating plain food, I don't see any difference."

Haoyuanjie commiserated: "This one point you have with your mom is just like her. When we were in college, my mom not only won a full scholarship based on merit, but also worked part-time at school canteens to save money and was always very thrifty during daily life, never wasting anything."

I remember that every semester ended, your mom would use the money she had saved up to go traveling abroad, and we all thought her family must be quite poor. Later, we found out that your mom's financial background was actually the best among all the Chinese people in the world.

Yedchen smiled and said: "I think she is indeed very thrifty, always teaching me to learn how to save and not waste, even when eating, there would never be any leftovers. This point is similar to my dad as well, both of them don't pursue material things."

Haoyuanjie agreed: "That's why your mom and dad can get along, they have already detached themselves from the pursuit of material wealth and low-level interests since their youth, unlike us, who were young and only think about making money, seeking fame and reputation during our youth." JrNovels.com
