"I know what you’re trying to remind me of," Qu Jing said calmly, "I just want to know if they’re still alive, and if they are, how they’re doing, and what I can do for them."
"Back then, I promised my grandpa I’d take care of him in his old age, but in the end, I broke my promise and didn’t fulfill it."
"Now that I’m awake, I should do something for those who can achieve it."
Luo Jun showed an expression as if saying, "I really can’t deal with you emotional little birds," and said, "Send me the information, I can’t guarantee we can find them. Private detectives these days aren’t as magical as in TV dramas. In TV dramas, they find someone in just one episode."
"Thank you," Qu Jing replied, then moved her phone back and continued sipping her rice cake soup.
Luo Jun opened his mouth, wanting to say something, but heard the server’s voice and stayed silent.
The dishes were served.
The Squirrel Mandarin Fish was clearly Huang Jia’s handiwork, and the Sizzling Fried Eel was made by Huang Shengli, just drizzled with oil, sizzling beautifully.
Chen Huihong made an astonished sound at the sight, turned her camera to show Luo Jun the dishes, without introducing them (mainly because she couldn’t), and immediately grabbed a big piece of Sizzling Fried Eel with her chopsticks.
She blew on it and then directly stuffed it into her mouth.
The highest form of praise.
As Chen Huihong continued her exaggerated interjections, Luo Jun resumed speaking: "Qin Huai, I’ve been researching the status of Wang Gen Sheng since you last mentioned it to me, and I have some insights now."
Qin Huai, while scooping rice, quickly asked upon hearing this: "So what exactly is the status?"
Wang Gen Sheng’s status is the most unique among the yet-to-awaken spirits.
Looks advanced at a glance.
Last time Qin Huai asked Luo Jun, he wasn’t quite sure about the status either, since he was just a Bi fang and wasn’t familiar with the system’s terminology.
"He’s a Xiezhi. I researched his experiences and reputation over the years, and they align perfectly with his character."
"40 years as an accountant without falsifying accounts, upright and honest, never tells lies, fair and impartial. He has a happy family, respectful children, good relationships with colleagues, a group of friends with upright character, and has a good reputation in the morning exercise circle. He’s the furthest from the Yunzhong Restaurant among the residents in their owners’ group."
"He doesn’t have a strong obsession, which means his obsession isn’t deep, or his obsession aligns with his own character traits."
"As a Xiezhi, in this life he’s neither crazy nor out of the ordinary, he remained true to himself, and all the praise he’s earned matches his character, rather than criticism. Even if in his first life he had deep obsessions, suffered great grievances, endured much unfairness and anger, this life should have resolved them."
Qin Huai stopped shoveling rice: "So what do you mean?"
"He will definitely awaken in this life," Luo Jun said. "I can’t think of a reason he wouldn’t succeed in his tribulation."
"The meaning is very clear. Awakening, waking up after a coma, he was foggy before, and now he’s about to become clear."
Qin Huai remarked: "Actually, Uncle Wang is quite amazing too. 40 years without falsifying accounts, never making wrong ones, never lying, upright and firm, and not annoying anyone. Even if he’s a Law Beast, it’s still incredible that he achieved this."
"If you have the leisure to marvel at how amazing a Law Beast is, can you turn the camera around?"
"If we’re chatting, can the camera not be on the food?"
"Chen Huihong, why did you buy a high-pixel phone? Aren’t the photos you post on your moments all blurry? With such a high-pixel phone, how do you manage to take such blurry photos?"
"Xiao Zhang, I’m hungry. Heat up the white fungus and lotus seeds soup I didn’t finish at noon!"
Qin Huai turned the camera back to face his bowl.
In the bowl, there was rice with the sauce from the Sizzling Fried Eel poured over it, topped with a few Biluo Shrimp, looking particularly enticing under Chen Huihong’s high-pixel camera.
"Mr. Luo, dishes really taste best when they’re hot."
