I frowned and said, ”You're talking about He Qian, but she can't contact you?”

Tang Mingtong nodded his head and said: ”Indeed, they are missing now, but I believe they should still be in Huangshan, and the person who came was He Qian's father.”

”So that's how it is. What does this have to do with me?” I asked with a faint smile.

Tang Tongming said, ”He said that you'll know when he comes, so I don't know.”

I looked at Tang Tongming and slowly said, ”It looks like I'll have to wait for him to come before I can leave, right?”

Tang Tongming said, ”I think after you finish this meal, they should have already arrived. Mr. Chen wouldn't be stingy towards this meal's time right?”

I shrugged and said, ”Of course not. We all have to eat anyway, and we also have to treat. We are naturally very happy.”

”Then that's good. Miss Xu, don't worry, I've only come looking for Mr. Chen to ask for his help, that's all. You're Pingping's friend, I hope you can understand how I feel right now.” Tang Tongming saw Cheng's nervous expression and explained.

I patted Cheng Zi's hands and gently said, ”Cheng, don't worry. We will be back soon. Didn't the old man say he would wait for us to go back for dinner tonight?”

Hearing my words, Cheng nodded and didn't say anything. Soon, the waiters brought the dishes up one after another. I didn't stand on ceremony. I picked up my chopsticks and started to eat. Occasionally, I would order some food for Cheng Zi and let her eat a little more.

Tang Tongming sat on the other side. Although he occasionally took a sip of soy milk and had some side dishes, he didn't say anything. He just looked at us with a smile.

It wasn't long before we were done eating. At this moment, the door to the room was pushed open and a man walked in with a slightly gloomy face. When I saw him enter, I was stunned for a moment.

When the man saw me sitting there, he walked over and sat beside me. He reached out his hand to pat my shoulder and said with a dissatisfied expression, ”What's wrong? We haven't seen each other for over a year. Don't tell me you don't recognize me?”

I then reacted and bitterly laughed, ”Uncle He, why are you here? Why didn't you tell me in advance so that I could go and pick you up?” The person who had come was actually He Yu, one of the brothers who had just seen Brother Jie in the private box.

He Yu waved his hand and snappily said, ”Come on, I heard that you're planning to run away. What's wrong? Do you not want to see me?”

I bitterly smiled and said, ”How could that be? It's just that I didn't expect it to be you. If it was you, I would definitely come and pick you up.”

Uncle He smiled in satisfaction, ”That's more like it. Go, call the waiter over. We've traveled the entire night, I still haven't eaten.”

After calling the waiter in and having some dishes, the waiter left. I poured Uncle He a cup of soy milk. After drinking a mouthful of soy milk, he said, ”I never thought that I would meet you here. I had even thought that I would have the time to head to the East Sea to find the God of Fortune and look for you again.”

I asked softly, ”Uncle He, is He Qian your daughter?”

Uncle He looked at me sideways and said snappily, ”Yeah, you want to say that you don't look like me, right? Qianqian looks like her mother.”

I smiled embarrassedly, ”How could that be? It's just that I didn't think that He Qian was your daughter. If I had known about it earlier, we would have never recognized each other.”

The Uncle He pointed his chopsticks at me and said, ”You brat, stop playing dumb with me. The God of Fortune told me that you are a monkey spirit now, and are even crazier than loaches. Say it, what do you plan to do about this matter? Don't think that I don't know about it, the God of Fortune and the soldier have already told me about it.

I embarrassedly said, ”Uncle He, don't listen to their nonsense. I am just a student. If I had the ability, I would have still needed to go to school.”

Uncle He rolled his eyes at me and said, ”It seems like what the God of Fortune and the Big Head Soldier said was correct. You brat, you are indeed more slippery than a loach.

”How could that be? I don't know much about this matter, and I've already prepared for it. You're not going to let me look for a person like you with a needle in a haystack, are you?” I said with a helpless look on my face. Without the equipment that He Qian and Tang Pingping had on them, it would be impossible to find them using the methods that they had previously.

Uncle He directly said, ”I don't care about this matter, if you don't help me take Qian Qian back, do you believe that I will beat up that rogue tomorrow!?” The rogue who was mentioned by the Uncle He was actually the Brother Jie. The Uncle He was actually a very conservative person. He hated people like the Brother Jie who only wanted to find girls and not marry them. Although the Uncle He was only a few years older than him, he was still the first to marry. So he already had two children, one child and one girl. His daughter He Qian was the youngest.

I said depressingly, ”Uncle He, aren't you trying to make things difficult for me? I have my own ways.”
