"You know your uncle eats a lot, so it's good for you, it's cheaper for you, but leave some for your uncle too, I just called him; he should be back soon," Mu Shan said.
"Okay," Mu Rufeng nodded, picked up his bowl and chopsticks, and began eating right there.
After devouring the food like a whirlwind, Mu Rufeng left half of the meal.
To be honest, his uncle had always been a big eater since childhood, a tall and strong man who had never lost a fight back in the village.
Later, in middle school and high school, no one dared to pick a fight with him because of his stature.
"Xiaofeng, you're 24 this year, have you found a girlfriend yet?" Liu Meizhu suddenly asked.
"Uh... no, not yet," Mu Rufeng shook his head.
"You're not getting any younger; at your age, you were already born," Mu Shan joined the conversation.
"Yes, yes, yes, I'll try harder," Mu Rufeng dared not retort, for fear of getting a lecture.
"Oh yeah, I also brought something back this time," Mu Rufeng added.
"It's what you had last time; I brought some back, just enough for Grandpa and Grandma to have some, to help them feel better," Mu Rufeng explained.
He had actually wanted to give it to his grandparents the last time.
But his grandparents weren't in good health and had gone straight to a major hospital in Shanghai.
It had also taken his uncle a long time to persuade his grandparents to go there.
His grandparents had been living there for nearly half a year. They probably couldn't stand being idle and insisted on coming back, otherwise, they might have had to stay until the New Year.
"That's great, they've gotten much better since coming back from Shanghai, the major hospital there is really good, and after eating that fruit of yours, their health will improve even more," Mu Shan said with a smile.
"You go take a shower first; it's hot today," Liu Meizhu suggested.
"Alright, oh, I forgot to bring my bag; I'll go get it from the car," Mu Rufeng suddenly remembered the backpack with his change of clothes.
Without delay, Mu Rufeng put on his shoes and went downstairs.
As Mu Rufeng disappeared around the corner of the street, a tall middle-aged man carrying a briefcase appeared from the other end, heading in his direction.
"These years, Yong City has developed quite quickly; even parking spaces are hard to find," the middle-aged man muttered.
The middle-aged man entered a building, climbed the stairs, and then knocked on a door.
"Knock, knock, knock!"
"So soon? Didn't you bring your keys?" Liu Meizhu opened the door while speaking.
"Oh, it's Ze; you ran off without even seeing him, coming back so late," Liu Meizhu said, somewhat annoyed.
"Brother, sister-in-law, I had an emergency," Mu Ze greeted them with a smile.
"Have you had dinner? We saved some dishes for you," Mu Shan pointed to the food on the table.
"I did eat, but now I'm hungry again. Your cooking is still the best; let's not talk about my partner's cooking skills," he said.
"Don't be silly; Xiaohe's hands aren't made for cooking; a doctor's hands are precious," Liu Meizhu said.
Immediately, Mu Ze sat down at the table and began to eat.
However, while eating, Mu Ze slightly furrowed his brows.
He felt a trace of ghost qi, but it vanished in an instant.
"An illusion?" Mu Ze paid close attention and continued eating.
Soon, Mu Ze sensed the faint ghost qi again.
And just as abruptly, it disappeared.
Mu Ze's expression gradually turned serious. If it had happened once, it could be a mistake, but this was the second time, and he couldn't be wrong.
Without any hesitation, Mu Ze unfolded his own spectral ability, enveloping the entire room.
In an instant, Mu Ze's gaze locked onto Mu Shan and Liu Meizhu.
More precisely, it locked onto their mobile phones.
At this moment, Mu Ze's complexion turned ugly.
Ghost qi fluctuations? A medium to enter an instance? Did this mean his brother and sister-in-law were going to enter an instance?
"What's wrong, Ze?" Seeing Mu Ze's complexion was off, Mu Shan immediately asked.
"Brother, sister-in-law, you need to eat this, quickly," Mu Ze hastily retrieved a bunch of attribute fruits from the briefcase.
"Huh? This fruit..." Mu Shan was astonished at the sight of the attribute fruit.
Liu Meizhu also realized that this fruit was the same one Mu Rufeng had brought for them before.
"Ze, you..." Liu Meizhu began, but Mu Ze quickly interrupted, "Brother, sister-in-law, eat it fast, I'll explain afterwards, we're pressed for time."
As soon as he spoke, Mu Ze also took out two items and some soul banknotes, seemingly prepared to save their lives.
Just then, Mu Ze's eyes sharpened instantly, his gaze landing on the doorway.
Suddenly, his spectral ability was torn open, and a figure appeared at the door.
"Mom, Dad, are you okay?" As soon as Mu Rufeng saw his parents unharmed, he breathed a sigh of relief.
Then, his gaze fixed on the Contractor.
Mu Rufeng and Mu Ze stared at each other, surprised.
"What's going on, what's happening? Xiaofeng, why did you suddenly come back without entering through the door?" Liu Meizhu was startled by Mu Rufeng's sudden appearance.
"Xiaofeng, Ze, what's going on?" Mu Shan, sensing something wasn't right, promptly inquired.
"And Ze, this fruit, it looks so much like the one Xiaofeng brought back," Mu Shan added.
"This isn't the time to talk about that; Xiaofeng, your parents are about to enter the instance."
