Invincibility Begins with a Super Fairy Manny

Chapter 327: Chapter 327: Sitting Around the Stove on an Autumn Night (3rd Update)

Xu Jiu felt much relieved, turned around, and was about to leave.

A car pulled up to the curb, and a line of people got out.

A man and a woman, followed by two exquisitely cute little girls.

They seemed to be a family.

The man was handsome and elegant, and the woman was even more stunningly beautiful.

Such a combination naturally attracted a lot of attention.

Seeing this family, Xu Jiu, who was about to leave, froze in place.

As the man and woman walked towards the restaurant, laughing and talking, they passed by Xu Jiu. The man glanced at him indifferently and then walked away.

It wasn’t until the group entered Old Xie’s Restaurant that he shuddered, coming back to his senses.

That man…

Xu Jiu’s mind buzzed with uncertainty.

His subordinate beside him smacked his lips, saying in amazement, “What a beauty! She’s a hundred times prettier than any TV star, really….”

He didn’t finish his sentence because Xu Jiu kicked him viciously, sending him sprawling into the rainwater, then started kicking him brutally.

While kicking, Xu Jiu roared in a low voice, “If you’re sick of living, go jump off a building yourself, don’t drag me down with you, okay?”

Xu Jiu’s savage and angry face intimidated everyone. It took a long time for them to recover, only after his subordinate had been beaten unconscious by Xu Jiu.

Only then did Xu Jiu stop, wiped the cold sweat from his forehead, and looked at Old Xie’s Restaurant with residual fear.

It couldn’t be wrong, it was definitely him!

Just the way he looked at me is enough to be sure!

At that thought, Xu Jiu had a bright idea, quickly pulled out his phone, and dialed Du Fan’s number.

At that moment, Du Fan happened to be in Beijiang City, drinking with some business friends. When he saw the call was from Xu Jiu, he was startled at first, then his expression turned solemn.

This time of the day… could it be that something happened at that restaurant?

Du Fan immediately answered the call.

“Hello! Boss, I’m at Old Xie’s Restaurant. I just… saw Master!”

“What?” Du Fan was taken aback, abruptly stood up, giving his business partners quite a fright.

“Say that again?”

Xu Jiu took a deep breath, “I saw Master entering the restaurant!”

“Are you sure you didn’t see wrong?”

“Absolutely not! He even glanced at me. That indifferent look in his eyes, I could never mistake it!” Xu Jiu said with certainty.

Du Fan hesitated for a moment, then made a decision.

“Stay outside, don’t let those messy people disturb Master. I’ll be right over!”

“Yes!”

Du Fan hung up the phone.

The business friends, somewhat displeased, said, “Mr. Du, with all this commotion, how are we supposed to continue our business discussion?”

As Du Fan grabbed his coat from the sofa and ran outside, he cursed, “Discuss your ass! I don’t have time to deal with you now!”

Meanwhile, inside Old Xie’s Restaurant.

The sudden arrival of the group quieted the entire hall.

Some people were even dumbfounded.

They had just seen an incomparably beautiful girl enter, and now how comes such a high-value family arrived?

This small restaurant, how many surprises could it offer?

Auntie Pang, who was busy with the accounts, sensed an unusual atmosphere and couldn’t help but look up.

When she saw the man with a smile on his face.

Auntie Pang was stunned for a moment, then shouted with extreme joy, “Xiao An?”

That’s right, of course, it was none other than Xue An and An Yan’s family arriving!

Xue An nodded with a smile, “Auntie Pang!”

Auntie Pang called out, “Old Xie, stop what you’re doing, Xiao Anzi is here!”

Old Xie ran out without even wiping the flour from his hands, excited once he saw it really was Xue An.

Hearing the commotion, Xie Jingjing and Tang Xuan’er, who were studying in the back room, also came out.

An Yan smiled at Tang Xuan’er, “I was planning to wait for you to come home tonight, but once I saw it was raining and knew you were at Uncle Xie’s helping with homework, I decided to come over with Xue An! I hope Uncle Xie doesn’t mind!”

“How could I! I couldn’t have asked for better!” Though Old Xie initially wanted to come forward to chat, his expression was somewhat hesitant.

The more he interacted with him, the more Old Xie realized that Xue An’s power was unfathomably deep.

Even those haughty big shots were now extremely respectful towards him, and Old Xie knew very well what the reason might be.

Therefore, he had a few more concerns, afraid that being too casual might upset Xue An.

An Yan naturally noticed this and deliberately teased with a smile.

It was clear that An Yan was thoughtful, with a gracious and generous demeanor in dealing with people.

Of course, Xue An understood An Yan’s intention, and the smile on his face became three degrees warmer.

This girl, she really was a treasure!

Thus, he also said with a smile, “I just happen to be craving some of Uncle Xie’s vintage wine. Today, I’ll have a good drink!”

Old Xie burst into laughter, “Alright! If there’s nothing else I have, it’s old wine!”

With those words, any trace of initial awkwardness was immediately dispelled.

During such a bleak autumn wind, the most suitable activity was, of course, for friends to sit together and enjoy a steaming hot pot.

Old Xie courteously asked the other few tables of customers to leave.

Of course, they didn’t dare not to leave.

The scene with Xu Jiu just now, they all had seen it, who would dare cause trouble?

Then Old Xie put several tables together and ignited a copper-pot hot pot.

The ingredients were all ready, and the girls, quick and efficient, soon had the various vegetables washed.

Old Xie then took out a large piece of fresh mutton and began to cut the meat.

However, due to the haste, there wasn’t a sharp knife available, making the cutting slow.

Seeing this, Xue An smiled, “Let me do it!”

As he spoke, he took the kitchen knife, and with a slight flick of his wrist, the whole knife seemed to blur into a shadow as he started chopping.

There was no sound of the knife striking the chopping board, only the subtle sound of slicing meat.

In a moment, the mutton was sliced, with each piece uniformly thin enough to see through.

Old Xie was gobsmacked.

He had never seen meat cut like this, where the knife didn’t even touch the chopping board throughout the process, relying solely on incredibly precise control to lift the blade just after cutting the mutton.

This sounded easy, but in practice, it was nearly impossible.

It seemed that Xiao An’s reputation and status were not gained so easily after all!

The group gathered together.

Xiang Xiang and Nian Nian were already eager, especially Nian Nian, who was practically drooling.

When the mutton went into the pot, after waiting just five or six seconds, it could be taken out for tasting.

Combined with Old Xie’s personally mixed dipping sauce, it tasted smooth, fresh, and delicious enough to make one forget all worldly worries.

This time An Yan also poured a little wine, raising her glass toward Old Xie and Auntie Pang, “I owe so much to you two, for all your help back then. Otherwise, he and I might not have made it till today. This drink, I toast to you two!”

Old Xie and Auntie Pang quickly raised their glasses, “No need to be polite, we’re all family! Forget about that!”

After one drink, An Yan’s cheeks blushed, adding to her unmatched beauty.

At this moment, Xue An said with a smile, “Also, the reason I came here is to announce something.”

“I’m planning to have another wedding ceremony with An Yan!”
