Even if Lao Li didn't "invite" them, they would not miss the ceremony.
But at the moment, Lao Li was still entertaining his relatives and friends, and the players had no time to watch his heartbreak and the good show of the old sending off the young. Even the words of comfort from the villagers nearby, because they all knew the other side of it, became extremely ironic at this time.
After finding out the news, the players left Lao Li's house early without much hesitation.
The villagers came and went, and didn't care about the few outsiders leaving.
But when Yuan Yuxue and the others came out, they happened to run into the fat man standing not far from the door, looking secretive and sticking his head out, just happening to bump into them head-on.
The fat man was slightly startled and subconsciously dodged to the side, but was caught by the man in the suit.
"Hello."
The man in the suit looked like he was in a bad mood, but when he faced the fat man, he looked calm. He glanced at him with a smile and asked, "Why did you run when you saw us?"
The fat man's face seemed to tremble slightly. He glanced at the men in suits very cautiously, "No, he didn't run away."
He forced himself to smile, "I just saw you guys come to visit Old Li, so I thought I'd give you a small gift to comfort and help you." As he spoke, he looked anxious and irritable, looking over at Old Li's house, and it seemed like there was no riot. Still a little worried, he asked, "You didn't do anything, did you?"
The men in suits were a little speechless. Although they were indeed annoyed with Lao Li, they were not arrogant enough to attack him directly in his house.
He was too lazy to argue with the fat man and waved his hand slightly to indicate no. The fat man saw this waving of his hand and seemed to be relieved and said, "That's good, that's good."
He asked again, "I have some things to do this afternoon, so I want to help Lao Li a little. Do you still need me to help guide you?"
The players' plan for today was very clear. They were going to investigate the fat man's breeding pond in the afternoon. But when asked this question, even a young man like Ah Chuang who didn't hide his thoughts didn't reveal any strange look.
Xiao Gao took the initiative to speak, and said with some disdain, "You don't need to lead the way. Let's just go to the fields near the village and see the scenery. I feel suffocated when you stare at me."
The fat man smiled ingratiatingly, "Thank you for your hard work, bosses."
He didn't bother to argue with the players any more. He seemed anxious to check and confirm, so he trotted into the house.
As the tour guide who mainly led them into the village, the fat man seemed to need to take some responsibility for some of their actions. It was normal for him to show more concern or be worried that they might cause trouble.
But when he trotted past her, Yuan Yuxue raised her eyes slightly and looked at him.
His eyes narrowed slightly, and the corner of his eye fell on the fat man's back. He did not look away until his figure disappeared into the house.
His expression remained cold and indifferent.
…
The excuse used with Fatty was certainly not their main plan. Their task this afternoon was to go to the fish pond that Fatty had originally taken them to to see if there was anything fishy going on.
