《不法之徒》

Xiao Li was late by one minute.

This one minute made Qi Xiu Yuan suffered all kinds of torment.

When Xiao Li appeared at the head of a flight of stairs, Qi Xiu Yuan had stared at his watch several times already. Anxiety was clearly written on his face but he willed it all away immediately and let the joy in seeing that person sink in.

"Sorry, this shop main door won't let me stop the car in front so I had to go and find another parking space. Qi Laoshi, you've waited long," said Xiao Li very apologetically as he walked over to where Qi Xiu Yuan was sitting and sat himself down.

"Only a minute had passed by, I didn't notice it at all." Qi Xiu Yuan looked at his watch again, "You......you drove the car yourself? I thought you had your own dedicated chauffeur."

A smile appeared on Xiao Li's lips before he let out a laugh: "I let them bring me once in a while, but it can't be extravagant like that every day. The brothers also have other business to attend to."

"Being that extravagant is already pretty good." Qi Xiu Yuan joked and laughed before he turned around from his seat and pick up a case that he had prepared earlier in the day. "A couple of days ago, I went on a business trip to Yuncheng. This is the local specialty product there. It is said that its made from an ancient mahogany tree about a century ago and can ward off evil spirits. I bought three, one is in my possession, one I gave to a colleague and this one, I wanted to give to you."

Xiao Li stared blankly for a while, a bit stunned at this present. He wanted to say something but instead with a smile gracing his lips again, he received it.

After the waiter passed them the menu, Xiao Li looked carefully at it.

Qi Xiu Yuan explained: "This is a shop that one of my friend opened. Everything here are simple home-style meals, but the flavors are all pretty good."

Qi Xiu Yuan doesn't know why but after he said those few words, Xiao Li's expression looked quite strange. It seemed like a sigh of relief yet also a bit of disappointment.

Xiao Li quickly ordered two dishes and passed the menu over to Qi Xiu Yuan. When Qi Xiu Yuan was looking over the menu and ordering, Xiao Li lifted his head and looked around the shop for a moment.

"This shop is very nicely decorated and the scenery is pretty good as well."

"Don't be so polite, you've seen many high class entertainment places, would you really fancy this this small shop?" said Qi Xiu Yuan in a joking tone of voice as he let a warm smile squirm its way up his face.
