Taking a taxi to the barbecue restaurant Li Yuan mentioned, the first thing Lin Yu saw after getting out of the car was Li Yuan sitting in front of a small stove, grilling half-cooked skewers by himself.
This was the unique way of barbecuing in this small shop.
The shop owner would distribute a small grill to each table of customers and roast the meat you bought to a half-cooked state. Some hard-to-cook foods would be roasted to full-cooked, then sprinkle with seasonings and hand over the skewers to the customers to complete the final step of grilling.
This way, customers could decide the doneness of the meat and heat up the skewers at any time to avoid affecting the taste after the skewers got cold.
Li Yuan really liked this way of barbecuing and usually ate barbecue here.
The original owner, Huang Mao, was no different. He often came here from a long distance to eat barbecue.
Walking over and sitting across from Li Yuan, Lin Yu greeted him with a smile:
"Uncle, what did you want to talk to me about?"
At the same time, Lin Yu took out the newly bought Smartisan phone from his school uniform pocket last night and put it on the table. Then he unceremoniously picked up a skewer and started eating.
Li Yuan's face was already extremely gloomy. After seeing the Smartisan phone on the back of Lin Yu's phone, his face turned completely black. He asked in an unfriendly tone:
"Did you buy the phone?"
Lin Yu picked up a grilled squid skewer, took a bite, and nodded:
"Yeah, I bought it."
Hearing that Lin Yu really bought the phone, Li Yuan's face got even darker. He gave a cold snort and said with dissatisfaction in his tone:
"You're just a kid, but you already know how to buy these useless things. Even your uncle doesn't use a phone as good as yours!"
"Uncle, can you compare with me?"
"Even if you use a Nokia, people will still treat you respectfully when they see you. But what do I have?"
"All I can do is buy a phone to look good, right?"
Lin Yu flattered him with a playful smile.
However, the effect of this flattery was obviously mediocre, and Li Yuan's face didn't look much better.
Lin Yu didn't want to make things worse by looking at his face. Instead, he buried his head and ate the skewers as if taking revenge. In a short while, all the grilled skewers on the table were devoured by him.
Just as Lin Yu put all the remaining half-cooked skewers on the small grill and was about to order some more skewers from the boss, Li Yuan, who had been sitting there with a black face and not saying a word, suddenly spoke up:
"From now on, your monthly living expenses will be reduced by 500 yuan!"
"I think you're getting more and more out of control. How dare you buy such an expensive thing!"
"Is that something a kid your age should buy?"
Li Yuan's tone was serious, sounding just and honorable, as if he was afraid that Lin Yu would develop the habit of being extravagant. But in fact, he still felt heartache for the large sum of money he gave out last night and wanted to find a way to make up for it.
Lin Yu had long expected Li Yuan to turn against him. It would be abnormal for a person like him not to try every means to get the money back.
But Lin Yu didn't expect him to be so shameless as to deduct the money from his monthly living expenses.
This made Lin Yu unable to bear it.
He only had 1,000 yuan for living expenses every month. After paying the rent, he was left with only 500 yuan. If Li Yuan deducted another 500 yuan, how could he survive?
Not to mention saving money for college!
Thinking of this, Lin Yu decided not to pretend anymore.
Since you're being shameless, don't blame me for speaking bluntly.
He took out a tissue from the paper box, wiped the corners of his mouth, and the smile on Lin Yu's face faded. He said slowly:
"Uncle, this is a bit unreasonable, isn't it?"
"This thing is expensive. Well, I won't buy such expensive things in the future. Isn't that okay?"
"What's the point of deducting my living expenses?"
"Of course."
"Uncle, I'm not trying to rely on you either."
"If you don't want to give me living expenses, then please hand over my share of the inheritance."
"After you hand it over, I guarantee I won't ask you for a single cent anymore!"
"We can even cut off our relationship!"
"You little brat!"
"How dare you talk to me like that!"
Li Yuan's face was as black as if he was going to eat someone. Knowing he was in the wrong and couldn't argue with Lin Yu, he shifted the focus to Lin Yu's attitude and their relationship.
He suddenly stood up and shouted:
"Don't talk to me about money."
"I've raised you since you were a kid. It's only right for you to do things for me."
"I haven't even asked you for the alimony, and you still dare to talk to me about money?"
"I'm telling you!"
"From now on, your monthly living expenses will be 500 yuan."
"Take it or leave it!"
After saying that, Li Yuan kicked the table and turned to leave.
The small charcoal stove on the table trembled violently due to the kick, and some of the ungrilled skewers fell onto the table and the ground. Lin Yu quietly watched these dirty and inedible skewers, his eyes colder than ever.
Calm down.
Calm down.
Lin Yu kept repeating these words in his heart and took deep breaths, trying hard to calm down his about-to-explode emotions.
Lin Yu knew that this wasn't the right time to fall out with Li Yuan. No matter how strong he was, he couldn't deal with Li Yuan and all his subordinates alone. Moreover, beating Li Yuan up here would be meaningless.
It might even add a lot of instability to his future life.
After taking several deep breaths, Lin Yu calmed down. Just as he was about to accept the cruel fact that his living expenses would be reduced by 500 yuan, a noisy sound caught his attention.
At the entrance of the barbecue restaurant, three vans parked in sequence. The window of the passenger seat of the middle van opened, and a guy with his head wrapped in bandages stuck his head out of the window.
He was extremely excited, pointed at Li Yuan who was about to leave, and shouted angrily:
"Damn it!"
"He's Li Yuan!"
"Guys, come on and kill him!!!"
After the man with the bandaged head gave the order, the doors of the three vans were pushed open from the inside at the same time, and the people inside poured out. They waved the various weapons in their hands and rushed towards Li Yuan while scolding.
Who were they?
Lin Yu looked at the people getting out of the vans with a puzzled look in his eyes.
They were wearing all kinds of clothes, and their weapons were also diverse. Each of them had dyed hair and various tattoos on their bodies.
Were they social hooligans?
Lin Yu had a general guess in his mind.
Thinking of Li Yuan's identity as a hooligan, Lin Yu was even more certain of this idea. Probably they had some grudges with Li Yuan.
Looking at the people shouting and rushing forward, Lin Yu's bad mood vanished, and he even secretly cheered them on in his heart.
Kill him!
Damn Li Yuan, for deducting my money. Beat this brute to death!
Lin Yu was sitting on the small stool, happily ready to watch the show when a man suddenly stopped, took a look at Lin Yu, and immediately pointed at him and shouted:
"Include him too!"
"He's Li Yuan's nephew!"
Damn it!
What does this have to do with me?
Lin Yu was completely confused. But facing the hooligans rushing towards him,
Lin Yu still instinctively flipped the table over, briefly blocking the members of the Fire Scorpion Gang who were charging at him, and then turned around and chased after Li Yuan, who had already run far away.
Although Li Yuan was already the leader of the Black Blood Gang, he had never stopped exercising his body, so he could run very fast when escaping.
Lin Yu ran even faster. In a short while, he caught up with Li Yuan.
After a chase, the two of them ran farther and farther away.
Lin Yu turned around and looked at the useless pursuers behind him. He was not happy.
Damn it, I was still counting on you guys to beat Li Yuan up and vent my anger.
But this is all you've got?
No way!
The angrier Lin Yu thought about it, the more he recalled Li Yuan's arrogant look just now. Lin Yu knew that this might be the only chance for him to vent his anger in the short term.
So when the members of the Fire Scorpion Gang who couldn't catch up got angry and threw bricks at the two who were running away.
Lin Yu quickened his steps, rushed to Li Yuan's side and shouted,
"Uncle, watch out!"
Then he stretched out his hands and gave a hard push, shoving Li Yuan a few steps to the left, causing that red brick that was off - target and was destined to hit nothing to land on Li Yuan's back.
"Ah!"
Li Yuan let out a shrill scream and fell to the ground.
"Uncle!"
"Get up quickly!"
Lin Yu rushed to Li Yuan's side and pretended to be in a hurry.
Li Yuan got up from the ground, grimacing in pain, but he didn't suspect at all that it was Lin Yu who made him get hit by that brick.
Seeing that Li Yuan still had the ability to move, Lin Yu was unhappy again.
This bastard is quite tough.
Let's see how many more hits you can take!
Before Li Yuan could stand up completely, Lin Yu bent his back, carried Li Yuan on his back, and then started running away. At the same time, he shouted to show his loyalty,
"Uncle, don't worry. I will never leave you behind!"
"Today, if we live, we live together; if we die, we die together!"
"Good, good boy!"
"I didn't misjudge you, nephew!"
Li Yuan, lying on Lin Yu's back, had a trembling voice. It was hard to tell whether he was touched by Lin Yu's actions or scared that the members of the Fire Scorpion Gang behind would catch up.
After hearing Li Yuan's words, Lin Yu sneered in his heart.
You'll soon find out if you misjudged me!
