Chapter 195: Chapter 195: The Last Supper_1

The old woman pedaled her tricycle loaded with goods, wobbling out of the mist.

"Hey, old hag, stop!"

Second Master Li, with his protruding belly, walked over arrogantly.

In his view, all of this was surely just a trap designed by you; he never believed in ghosts and deities— in his world, only money and power were omnipotent.

Seeing Second Master Li’s death-seeking behavior, you couldn’t help but frown slightly, about to go forward and urge him to stop, but the Old Master of the Li Family reached out and grabbed you.

You turned to look at the Old Master of the Li Family, and he shook his head slightly at you, smiling.

"Old Master, shall I push you over there?" a man in black who had been standing behind the Old Master of the Li Family bowed and said.

The Old Master of the Li Family nodded, also instructing another bodyguard to lift Little Muyun over as well.

Seeing the three generations of the Li Family gathered around the old woman, you couldn’t help feeling puzzled, not understanding the Old Master of the Li Family’s intentions.

"Little Muyun, don’t underestimate that Old Dog Li. Back then, he forged an empire with his bare hands, and before he met that man, he could also be considered a ’cover the sky with one hand’ figure in Jiangnan; don’t be deceived by his appearance now."

Your mother pushed your grandmother to your side, her gaze fixed on the Old Master of the Li Family’s silhouette with an inscrutable look.

At that moment, your mother reached out and gently stroked the back of your head, saying softly, "Son, you have just entered this society, and the intricacies here are too deep. These years, the reason why I’ve kept you secluded was the hope that you could grow up like a normal child, then get married and quietly live out this life—that would have been enough. But who would have thought that you would still step into this, sigh..."

"Mom, don’t worry, I’m pretty strong too," you raised your biceps confidently.

Your mother gave a light laugh and said, "Just watch this play carefully, and afterwards, you’ll realize how naive your usual thoughts have been."

Her words actually made you feel that the seemingly cheerful atmosphere had taken on a sinister turn.

"Grandma, it’s been many years since I’ve seen you, and your health still seems so robust."

The Old Master of the Li Family looked at the old woman getting off the tricycle, a nostalgic smile spreading across his face.

The old woman squinted at the Old Master of the Li Family, and soon she too let out a laugh, "So it’s you, you little pup."

"Presumptuous, old hag! Who are you calling a little dog? This is..."

"Shut up!"

Second Master Li immediately roared in anger, only to be kicked to the ground by the suddenly furious Old Master of the Li Family.

Old Master of the Li Family apologized to the old woman with a smile, "Grandma, I’m sorry, this young one is ignorant and has offended you."

The old woman didn’t seem to care, "It’s fine, it’s fine, Little Doggy, it looks like your time is almost up too, eh?"

"Indeed, before I die, I wanted to see you one more time, and I also wanted to taste your dumplings again."

At this, the Old Master of the Li Family’s eyes couldn’t help but redden.

"You want dumplings? Alright, alright, I’ll cook a bowl for you."

Saying this, the old woman turned to prepare the ingredients.

The Old Master of the Li Family spoke up again, "Prepare three more bowls; just dumplings will be fine."

"Three more bowls?"

The old woman turned and looked at the four individuals beside the Old Master of the Li Family.

Old Master of the Li Family pointed at Second Master Li, who had just risen from the ground, then Little Muyun, who the other old man had helped up, and lastly, the man in black beside him.

"Oh..."

The old lady chuckled and nodded her head. With a casual motion, she grabbed four dumplings from the drawer and tossed them into the bubbling iron pot. Then she took out four plastic bowls, first pouring nearly parallel lines of boiling water into them, followed by freshly picked greens from the fields. By the time she had finished adding the seasonings, the dumplings were ready to be removed from the pot.

Soon, four steaming bowls of dumplings were placed in front of the Old Master of the Li family.

"Third son, push me over there."

"Yes, Master," the black-clothed man behind the Old Master of the Li family said as he pushed him slowly forward, taking the dumplings from the old lady’s hands.

The Old Master of the Li family leaned over the plastic bowls of dumplings and inhaled deeply, his face expressing sheer delight.

"It’s still that flavor, oh how fragrant."

As he spoke, the Old Master of the Li family picked up a plastic spoon and scooped out a dumpling for himself. He gently blew on it and slowly placed it in his mouth.

Quickly, his face was brimming with a contented smile: "Delicious, granny, your dumplings are still so tasty."

The old lady, with a tender smile, said, "Eat, eat your fill for the whole night if they’re good."

The Old Master of the Li family nodded and turned to the three people beside him: "Each of you, take a bowl as well."

Second Master Li, Little Toad, and the bodyguard called Third son also each took a bowl.

At first, Second Master Li had a frown on his face, expressing complete distaste. But once he put a dumpling into his mouth, he couldn’t stop praising it loudly: "Oh! It’s delicious, so good!"

Seeing his own father putting on a show, Little Toad couldn’t help but curl his lip. He also ate one and, lo and behold, his expression was just like his father’s. He gobbled them down while loudly exclaiming his approval.

"Hey, old hag, another bowl!"

Second Master Li quickly finished the fourteen dumplings and rather rudely addressed the old lady.

The old lady said with a laugh, "Just have a taste, you’re full by now, aren’t you?"

"Hm?" Only then did Second Master Li realize that a small bowl of dumplings had given him such a satisfying feeling of fullness, and now it seemed he couldn’t eat any other food.

"Seems like I am full."

"Dad, I’m full too." Little Toad, despite it being evening, still had his sunglasses on. He nonchalantly tossed his empty plastic bowl aside, "I really didn’t expect such a shabby stall to make such delicious dumplings. Hey, old lady, what filling did you use for these dumplings?"

Here it comes!

As Little Toad asked this question, you distinctly felt a strange fluctuation in the air around you.

Sen Luo Eye, activate!

As the Sen Luo Curse Mark appeared, the old lady’s gaze shifted toward you, and when she saw the Sen Luo Curse Mark in your pupils, the kindly smile on her face froze for a moment, then she gave you a slight nod.

You nodded in return.

At that moment, through the Sen Luo Eye, you saw the air twisting in the distant, fog-enshrouded streets. Soon after, you heard a sound familiar to you, the sound of iron chains!

"Clang clang... clang clang..."

Two Ghosts you recognized emerged slowly from the mist.

"Grandma, should we step aside for a bit?"

Xiao Meiyu was standing beside your grandma. When you turned your head to look at her, you were surprised to see her twin foxy eyes shining with an eerie light.

"Ah~ Brother, don’t look at me like that, people will get shy~"
