At this moment, the waiter just served the dish. Li Yi glanced at the plate of braised pork and directly picked up the fattest piece, placing it into Chen Chen's bowl.
Chen Chen looked at the fatty pork in his bowl with a bit of disgust. He wanted to secretly throw it away, but he was intimidated by Li Yi, who was sitting next to him, so he had no choice but to lower his head and eat the meat without daring to speak again.
"Beef, can it be cooked medium-rare?" Li Yi said this to Li Huai, because Li Yi himself usually liked to eat medium-rare beef with blood. The taste of beef was better than other meats, and the fat content in beef was not as high as pork and similar meats. People who exercised liked to eat this kind of beef, and Li Yi thought that his younger brother might also like it.
"Sure." Li Huai nodded, expressing that he also enjoyed eating medium rare beef normally. These two brothers were indeed from the same mother. Even their food preferences were so similar.
Not long after, the medium-rare beef they ordered was brought to the dining table by the restaurant server.
Li Yi skillfully cut the beef on the plate. He had developed a habit of eating beef and drinking red wine at the same time. The wine flowed through his tastebuds, leaving a hint of rustic fragrance. Combined with the tender beef, the taste was truly excellent.
Li Yi discovered that his younger brother didn't like to speak. This child was the type of person who would habitually keep everything in his heart. Li Yi seemed to think of something, so he picked up a piece of chicken and put it in Li Huai's bowl. Li Huai raised his eyes, glanced at him, and softly said, "Thank you."
After a meal, Li Huai hardly said a few words, while Chen Chen sitting beside him kept rambling on. Li Yi felt a bit annoyed listening to him, but he couldn't help but admire his younger brother for being able to tolerate this chatterbox.
"Uncle Li, where are you living now..."
Chen Chen quietly approached Li Yi, and suddenly became very curious about everything about him.
"Lincheng," Li Yi casually replied, for that was indeed where he lived.
"Damn, there are so many girls in Lincheng. Some of the hotties in my online storage happen to be from there!" Chen Chen exclaimed, immediately taking out his phone. He opened his Baidu Cloud resources and one of the videos was titled [An enchanting night with Lincheng's top-notch beauties]."
"……"
Li Huai looked at Chen Chen with disdain, causing Chen Chen to feel somewhat embarrassed. Li Yi was just a little surprised. Nowadays, kids are really too mature for their age. They spend their days watching so much adult content, and it truly takes a lot of self-control for them not to be influenced negatively.
"You're just a little kid who hasn't come of age yet. Stop watching those action blockbusters. When you're older, Uncle will give you some better resources, high-definition uncensored versions that will be much better than the ones you're hoarding." Li Yi smiled and took Chen Chen's phone, clicking on the delete button in the upper right corner. Before Chen Chen could react, he was too busy staring at Li Yi's enchanting smile, captivated by his appearance. Meanwhile, Li Yi calmly handed the phone back to him.
"Damn it! Uncle, you've gone too far! Those were all new resources that I didn't have time to back up yet!" Chen Chen seemed to be so angry that he wanted to spit blood, but he was truly helpless because the resources had already been deleted, and these resources couldn't be automatically restored.
"Children should behave like children and be obedient," Li Yi said as he picked up a piece of fat meat and placed it between chopsticks for Chen Chen. Seeing that Chen Chen hesitated to eat, he personally picked it up and fed it to his mouth.
Li Huai pushed away Li Yi's chopsticks: "He's been recently trying to lose weight."
Chen Chen nodded busily, indicating that everything Li Huai said was true, and he really didn't want to chew on fatty meat anymore.
Li Yi saw that his younger brother was protecting this foolish boy, so he no longer bullied him. The three of them spent the dinner in this amusing and humorous farce. After dinner, Li Yi and Li Huai said their goodbyes. Li Yi was ready to take the car back to Lincheng. Li Huai, with a cold expression on his face, accompanied Li Yi to the subway station. He stared at Li Yi's eyes and only said one sentence, "Take care of yourself."
I know, if you have some time off, you can go visit the Li Family Martial Arts School in Lincity, and I will be there.
Li Yi opened his WeChat app on his mobile phone and added Li Huai as his friend by scanning his QR code. Then, he sent the location of Li Jia Martial Arts Hall to Li Huai. However, Li Huai only glanced at his phone without saying a word. He didn't tell Li Yi whether he wanted to go to Lincheng or not, nor did he inquire about anything related to Li Jia Martial Arts Hall.
Li Yi knew that Li Huai needed some time to digest the fact that his older brother was still alive, and to digest the fact that he, Li Huai, was also a descendant of the Li family. Time was abundant, and Li Yi would not force him, because someday Li Yi believed that his younger brother would come to the capital city to find him.
