Twenty minutes later, the commercial vehicle stopped under a luxuriously decorated teahouse.
The car door opened, and Jin Hugo asked Zhang Hao to wait where he was, while she led me through the lobby and directly to a private room on the second floor.
"Ms. Jin, what will you eat today?"
A waiter came over quickly, put a pot of morning tea on the table, and then asked politely.
"It's still the same as the third one, quicksand custard buns, oyster king barbecued pork buns, beef brisket and pearl rice rolls... two servings each."
Jin Hugo said familiarly without even raising his head.
"Mr. Cheng, this is the only star-rated Cantonese tea restaurant in the entire Sichuan and Chongqing region. Try this Cantonese morning tea. It tastes very good."
Jin Hugo poured a cup of tea himself and pushed it to me enthusiastically.
"Ms. Jin, if you have anything to say, just say it."
I didn't touch the tea cup, I just said lightly.
Jin Hugo retracted his hand in embarrassment, and then quickly restored his enthusiastic smile.
"Mr. Cheng, yesterday you rescued me from my dream and helped me catch the mastermind behind the scenes. I didn't even have time to say thank you."
"Miss Kim Hugo, you're welcome."
I said calmly: "I have already said that you will pay me and I will help you exorcise evil spirits. This is a fair transaction, so there is no need to be so polite."
"If you don't have anything else to do, I'll go back first."
After saying that, I stood up and prepared to leave.
"Mr. Cheng, wait a moment!"
Jin Hugo quickly stopped me: "I invite you here this time because I really want to ask for something."
I sat down safely and looked at Jin Hugo calmly, ready to listen to her appeal.
"My brother's birthday is coming soon. He hopes that I can go back and spend it with him. I, I'm scared..."
Having said this, Jin Hugo shrank involuntarily and his face turned pale. It seemed like it was a completely natural reaction and not pretending.
"Isn't it normal to spend your brother's birthday with him?"
Seeing Jin Hugo's reaction, I asked with a puzzled expression.
"To outsiders, this sounds like a normal thing, but I..."
Jin Hugo took a deep breath and immediately began to talk about his past.
It turned out that Jin Hugo had an older brother since he was a child. Although the two were brothers and sisters, they had very different personalities and were not close at all.
Every time Jin Hugo was with his brother, he would feel an extremely cold aura about him, hovering in the surrounding air, making people very uncomfortable.
"How should I put it, that kind of breath is like, like..."
"By the way, the breath of death!"
Jin Hugo thought about it for a while, finally found a suitable word, and blurted it out immediately.
"The smell of death?"
I repeated what she just said.
"Yes, it's the smell of death."
Jin Hugo affirmed: "It is a kind of rotten, decayed, chilling breath, which makes people shudder..."
"It is precisely because of this aura about my brother that I have always felt alienated from him, and he has always been indifferent to me. There has never been that kind of family affection between the two parties."
"Especially, he has recently contracted a strange disease, and his whole person has become more and more gloomy. Even the servants around him dare not approach easily..."
"But no matter what, he is my brother. Now that he is seriously ill, I am his only relative here in Shudu, and I cannot ignore him."
If I don't go to this birthday party, it will probably make his condition worse, and my father will blame him. "
"If my father is punished, I can't bear it..."
When talking about her father, Jin Hugo's face became even paler, and she seemed to be more afraid of her father than her brother.
No wonder Zhang Hao said yesterday that none of Jin Hugo's family members care about her life or death. It seems that the relationship between this family is not good.
"Tell me how you want me to help you."
After listening to Jin Hugo's story, I asked directly.
"I always have a bad feeling in my heart. Something might happen when I go to my brother's place this time, so..."
"Mr. Cheng, I want you to accompany me to my brother's place."
Jin Hugo said in a low voice: "I know you are very busy, but I really have no other choice. In Shudu, you are now the person I trust most."
I asked in confusion: "Where is Zhang Hao?"
"Zhang Hao is not only my agent, but also a friend who has grown up with me since childhood, but he is just an ordinary person."
"If something happens, he won't be able to help."
"Don't worry, I won't let you go in vain. I can pay the reward. If you tell me a number, I will never shake my head!"
Probably because he was afraid of my rejection, after finishing his request, Jin Hugo hurriedly added.
I thought for a moment and felt that Jin Hugo's family was a little strange. In order to understand the situation, I decided to get some information before talking.
"You just said that your brother has a strange disease. Can you tell me what it is?"
Jin Hugo nodded and said: "Of course, my brother suffers from a rare aging disease in the world. Although he is only thirty years old, he has become like an old man."
"The last time I saw him, he was already sitting in a wheelchair, with white hair on his head, flabby muscles on his body, age spots on his face, and his voice became an old man's voice..."
"I really don't know how long he can last after this birthday."
A rare aging disease in the world, he is only thirty years old, his surname is Jin...
Suddenly, my heart jolted and a name came to my mind.
"What's your brother's name?"
I suppressed the shock in my heart and asked in a deep voice.
"His name is Jin Jingting."
Jin Yuguo responded truthfully: "What's wrong, Mr. Cheng, do you know my brother?"
"No, I don't know."
I shook my head quickly, but my heart was already beating wildly.
Jin family, Jin Jingting!
Zhang Hao said before that Jin Hugo is just a stage name. In this case, the Jin Hugo in front of him is Jin Moyan's third daughter, Jin Feifei!
Yes, Jin Moyan, the head of the Jin family, has three children, namely the eldest son Jin Shaoru, the second son Jin Jingting, and the third daughter Jin Feifei.
This is information I've known before.
Jin Shaoru had already been swallowed by a sea monster in the open sea. The last time I killed Jin Jingting, I killed the protective beast, which caused the onset of progeria. I have never seen him again since then.
I never expected that by some strange combination of circumstances, I would meet the third daughter of the Jin family, and the brother she just mentioned who suffers from aging is none other than Jin Jingting!
"Ms. Jin, I helped you with this!"
After confirming this information, I directly agreed to Jin Feifei's request without any hesitation.
