In the dining room, the yellowish-brown solid wood table is typical European style; the overall solid wood carving technique is unique, the embellishment is just right; rectangular seating for 16 people; Kang Xi sat at the east head, while Ji Xiaonan sat on the first seat next to him.
The wonton was served in white bone china bowls much like in Phnom Penh, stuffed with shrimp and served with chicken broth, topped with shallots and shredded egg rolls that make the fingers tingle.
Ji Xiaonan drank wine last night and nodded off in the morning, but hadn"t eaten anything. He was so hungry that he grunted at the smell, picked up a spoon and took a sip of chicken soup.
Kang Xi opened a photo from his phone and handed it to him.
The person in the photo is An Hui, whom Kang Xi had searched online once he got off the plane and downloaded.
Ji Xiaonan looked at it in detail, “Quite pretty, what"s wrong with her, she owes you money?!”
He is a private detective, best at investigating affairs, looking for lost property, looking for people, looking for pets.
Seeing Kang Xi eating wonton slowly and methodically, he doesn"t look like a debt collector. His whole body suddenly shook like a tiger when a thought struck him and approached Kang Xi excitedly, “You don"t like her, do you?”
Kang Xi smugly pushed his face away in disgust, “Go away, leave me alone.”
The more Ji Xiaonan thought about it, the more he became enthused. If he had a tail like Nuomi, he"d probably be wagging it more happily than Nuomi. He suddenly muttered inwardly, that Lao Geng, that b.a.s.t.a.r.d, why didn"t he inform him in advance? This is the juiciest gossip of the year.
Ji Xiaonan, like Geng b.u.mei and Wei Bao, are Kang Xi"s college cla.s.smates. The four even lived in one dormitory; after college, he went to Hong Kong alone for career development, because private detectives are illegal in the country.
Because of Kang Xi"s name, coupled with Wei Bao"s nickname, his name sounds harmonic.
Back in the day, their dormitory was dubbed the Golden Palace.
At that time, the number of girls chasing Kang Xi could form a queue from the dormitory downstairs to Kang Xi"s home, and from his home back to the dormitory. It was spectacular. But none had ever touched Kang Xi"s heart. Even campus belle from the foreign language department of the school, who had always stood waiting for him downstairs, was treated indifferently. For this reason, he once asked Geng b.u.mei and Wei Bao, "Our family"s Your Majesty isn"t h.o.m.os.e.xual, is he?"
Geng b.u.mei"s face jerked, “Don"t you scare me!”
“What am I scaring you for, aren"t I just asking you?”
Geng b.u.mei covertly pointed to the center of the dormitory, where Kang Xi, who was sitting on a first cla.s.s type single couch reading a book, was. The couch was like a throne. Because he was dissatisfied with the uncomfortable sofa chairs in the dormitory, he moved that huge one from home.
"If he"s a rabbit, do you think he"d attack, or suffer?"
Ji Xiaonan"s answered with an expression of “Are you a pig”, “Of course he"d attack!”
To be subjected to that kind of pa.s.sion, how could he endure being the bottom!
Wei Bao whispered as he moved closer, “Then you say, if he is really the top, what makes the three of us?”
Ji Xiaonan mulled it over, and then looked at Kang Xi"s domineering sitting posture, his usual behavior. His cheeks jerked involuntarily just like Geng b.u.mei"s.
If Kang Xi is top, won"t they become his victims if they were to make love someday?
WTF!
