Chapter 163: Ji Buwang, How Can You Let Me Down?

After Mu Han praised him, he instinctively lowered his head and sniffed himself, afraid that his body would still stink.

Because he often collected rubbish, his body inevitably had a stench. When he went out and met people, everyone would subconsciously cover their noses or avoid him. And these were only the mildest reactions. There were even people who would spit and say harsh things to chase them away.

However, Mu Han was used to it now and felt that it didn’t matter as long as he could earn money. Thus, he’d decided not to be calculative with those people. After all, he didn’t earn as much as them, but it was still different when it came to his family. He didn’t want his family to know about his experiences, not because he was afraid of losing face, but because he was afraid that they would feel heartache.

Hence, before Mu Han came out, he had taken a shower twice, smelled himself, and confirmed that there was no odor.

Seeing that Shao Nan hadn’t shown any abnormalities, Mu Han finally heaved a sigh of relief.

When he looked at Ji Buwang, Mu Han’s attitude and gaze changed.

This was the first time he saw Ji Buwang, and his eyes were filled with curiosity. Ji Buwang knew Mu Han’s identity and was very polite.

Now that Mu Han had some experience working, he could tell that Ji Buwang was either rich or noble. However, Ji Buwang’s attitude was very good, so he followed suit.

Ji Buwang drove Mu Jingzhe, Shao Nan, and Mu Han away, and the car quickly merged into the traffic.

Shao Qihai, who had finally arrived at the capital by train and was waiting for Mu Jingzhe and Shao Nan to come out through the entrance, was speechless.

“…”

Lowering his head to look at his two legs, Shao Qihai temporarily gave up on the idea of chasing after them. It was impossible for two legs to catch up to four wheels, and he couldn’t attract too much attention.

Shao Qihai sat on the ground, grinding his teeth. He clenched and loosened his fists repeatedly.

What he hated was that Ji Buwang was his nemesis. Not only did Ji Buwang follow them everywhere, but he was also vigilant, making it difficult for him to follow his wife and kid closely.

Because of Ji Buwang, many of his plans had been messed up.

Originally, he’d also wanted to eat roasted duck with Mu Jingzhe and Shao Nan. Although he couldn’t eat with them face to face, he could eat with them from a distance. However, Ji Buwang had beaten him to it. Again.

Shao Qihai returned to the hotel where Mu Jingzhe and Shao Nan were staying with a dejected face and entered the room next to theirs.

Meanwhile, Ji Buwang drove Mu Jingzhe and the others to their destination. Mu Jingzhe had originally thought that since they were eating roast duck, Ji Buwang would take them to a small but authentic restaurant. However, it turned out that this wasn’t the case. The restaurant was very big and it was even a landmark restaurant in the capital.

“We’ll eat here?” Mu Jingzhe asked for confirmation.

“Mm, they serve the most authentic roast duck here.” This was the first reason. The second reason was that this restaurant was actually the Ji Family’s property.

Before going there, he hadn’t informed the staff that he’d be going, so he was visiting as a regular customer. However, not long after his arrival, someone recognized him.

Many of the waiters in the restaurant had been working there for several years and knew Ji Buwang. Besides, Ji Buwang’s temperament and looks weren’t easy to forget.

The news of Ji Buwang waking up miraculously and returning to the capital had spread in the past two days. It had also spread in the restaurant, but they hadn’t expected to see him there.

The manager dropped her pen on the table when she heard the news. “Mr. Ji is here?”

As she spoke, her eyes suddenly turned red. Seeing that she had lost her composure, the other person, who spoke carefully, glanced at her and said, “Yes, Sister Lan. You know Mr. Ji, right?”

“Mm.” Sister Lan acknowledged this in a low voice and rushed out, leaving behind a few waiters who looked at each other.

“What’s going on? Why is Sister Lan so agitated?”

“You still don’t know, right? Sister Lan likes Mr. Ji. I heard that it was Mr. Ji who recruited her in the first place. When Mr. Ji got into an accident, she cried a few times. She even went to the Ji Family and said that she didn’t mind that Mr. Ji was unconscious and was willing to marry him, hoping that she could save his life by marrying him to counteract bad luck. However, Old Mr. Ji rejected her suggestion.”

“There’s actually such a thing? I really didn’t know.”

“There’s much more that you don’t know. In the past, Sister Lan cried whenever she was scolded by a guest. Now, she’s trained. Because of Mr. Ji’s accident, her parents tried to force her to get married, but she never did. Everyone is saying that she’s been waiting for Mr. Ji.”

“How old is Sister Lan?”

“25 or 26. Her family is really anxious for her.”

Sister Lan, who they were gossiping about, rushed over quickly. She had heard that Ji Buwang had woken up, but because she hadn’t seen him with her own eyes, she didn’t dare confirm it. She had still been trying to think of a way to meet him, when he’d shown up unexpectedly.

Was he there to see her? Was he there because he had found out that she had been waiting for him?

Tears welled up in Sister Lan’s eyes, and she didn’t stop until she reached the private room. She took a deep breath and spruced herself up. Coincidentally, a dish was about to be served. She took it and said, “I’ll serve it myself.”

Sister Lan knocked on the door and heard a familiar voice come from inside. She pushed the door open with trembling hands and saw the face that she had been dreaming about day and night.

He was smiling as he spoke. He had really woken up.

Sister Lan was so delighted that she forgot what she was doing until Ji Buwang frowned and reminded her. “Serve the dish.”

Sister Lan came back to her senses and quickly served the dish. Just as she put it down, she heard Ji Buwang’s gentle voice say, “Jingzhe, try it and see if you like it.”

Sister Lan looked over and saw Mu Jingzhe. It was at that moment that she realized that Ji Buwang also had other guests. Besides, Ji Buwang had not looked at her from start to end. He was only looking at the woman beside him.

Sister Lan clenched her fists and glared at that woman called Jingzhe.

Noticing that the waitress had not left after serving the dish, Ji Buwang was about to frown and say something when there was another knock on the door. “Mr. Ji?”

“Who’s that?”

“It’s me, Mr. Ji. I heard that you were here, so I came to greet you.”

“Please come in.” Ji Buwang held himself back as he spoke. The door was pushed open, revealing a middle-aged man in a leather vest, his wife, as well as a young girl outside.

“I didn’t think the rumor was true. I didn’t expect it to really be you, Mr. Ji. It’s great that you’ve woken up.”

Ji Buwang gave them a polite yet distant smile. “Thank you.”

The middle-aged man and Ji Buwang exchanged pleasantries. His wife and daughter noticed Mu Jingzhe at first glance. They were more well-informed than Sister Lan and they’d vaguely heard that Ji Buwang had a woman he liked, a widow with kids from her first marriage.

They then looked at Shao Nan and instantly understood.

Their gazes were really obvious, and Ji Buwang could feel them too. He couldn’t help but frown. He was purely there to eat today and hadn’t expected to meet someone like this.

“Jingzhe, I’m sorry.” Ji Buwang apologized to Mu Jingzhe in a low voice. Mu Jingzhe shook her head, indicating that she was fine. She thought to herself that this was expected of a domineering CEO’s uncle. He’d even been greeted while eating.

Mu Jingzhe didn’t have much of a reaction, but the mother and daughter who had come to greet him widened their eyes. Jingzhe was indeed her name. The rumors were actually true!

Mu Jingzhe didn’t know that she had become a legend in this circle, but when she saw their astonished gazes, she felt strange. “Why are they looking at me like that?”

“It’s nothing,” Ji Buwang said softly. He then politely asked the whole family to head out. In the end, he realized that there was still an outrageous waiter in the room. “Why haven’t you left yet?”

Sister Lan’s heart sank when she saw the coldness between Ji Buwang’s brows. He had brought a new woman with him and he was looking at her as though she was a stranger. Had he completely forgotten about her?

How could he! How could he let her down!
