After starting from scratch, he was targeted by big bosses

Chapter 220

Because she wanted to follow Tang Xi, although Kong Yue was still dressed in black, she no longer had the Xie Mansion Shadow Guard's logo on her body.

Although both of them had good-looking lives, they each had their own advantages and disadvantages. One was colder and the other lively. Just sitting in the steamed stuffed bun shop like this attracted many people's attention.

Kong Yue glanced around with cold eyes. Those who ate buns and lined up to buy buns all looked away one after another. A few bold ones still sneaked glances at the two of them from time to time.

Kong Yue said softly, "Boss, here are ten buns."

Hearing this, the owner of the steamed stuffed bun shop hurriedly responded, "Hey, wait a minute, sir, I'll be here right away."

"You haven't had breakfast yet?" Tang Xi asked.

"I didn't have time." Kong Yue lifted the teapot and poured a cup of cold tea for the two of them.

Because the weather was very cold, the tea was also frozen very cold, but the two of them were not picky and drank it in small sips.

A flash of surprise flashed in Kongyue's indifferent eyes, "You little girls, don't you all like to be particular?"

Tang Xi put down the teacup, propped his chin and asked her, "How old are you?"

Kong Yue said: "Eighteen."

"Eighteen?" Tang Xi smiled slightly, she was five years younger than her, but of course she didn't say anything about it.

She said: "I look at those shadows... there don't seem to be many women among the people, are you the sons of Xie's family?"

"No!" Knowing that she was referring to the Shadow Guard, Kong Yue shook her head slightly and said, "Some of us lost our homes due to natural disasters, some were caused by man-made disasters, some were abandoned at birth, and some of us wanted to make life better for our relatives." The reasons for entering the mansion are different, but there is only one purpose, and that is to survive."

"You and..." Tang Xi looked around and said in a low voice, "What's the difference between a dead man?"

Kong Yue said: "They are the same as us, but they are different. Although they must obey the master's order and cannot betray, the master does not require us to die or die, but requires us to live if we can."

Tang Xi nodded slightly, "In this way, your master is indeed very human."

"You're right." Kong Yue agreed.

Tang Xi chuckled, "You never thought about getting married?"

At Kongyue's age, in this era, she is considered an older leftover woman.

She shook her head, "I haven't thought about it, and I don't want to."

"The steamed stuffed bun is here!"

The boss brought ten round buns and placed them in front of the two of them, "You two guests are waiting, do you want to warm up this tea?"

Kong Yue said: "No, I like to drink cold."

"Okay!" The boss glanced at him strangely before retreating.

Kong Yue picked up a bun and handed it to Tang Xi, who took it with a smile, "Thank you!"

Kong Yue picked up another one, looked at her and said, "If you want to drink hot tea, you can ask the boss to make another pot for you."

"No need." Tang Xi smiled, "I'm not a daughter of a famous family. I even drink raw water when I'm thirsty. Cold tea is nothing."

Kong Yue ate very quickly, finishing one in two or three mouthfuls, while Tang Xi stood aside, pouring tea for her from time to time.

She ate eight of them, and the one in Tang Xi's hand was not finished yet.

"Are you still eating?" she asked Tang Xi.

Tang Xi shook his head and asked her back, "Are you still eating?"

Kong Yue picked up the last bun, shook his head and said, "I'm full."

Tang Xi nodded and summoned the boss to pay the bill. The two of them had just left the steamed stuffed bun shop when they saw Mo Yi driving a car towards them.

The carriage soon stopped in front of Tang Xi's shop, Xie Cheng lifted the curtain to look over, and said softly, "Come up."

"But..." Tang Xi glanced sideways at Kongyue, only to find that she had already got into the carriage at some point, and took the lead to leave with the horse...
