Zhou Chao smiled and whispered in Jiang Li’s ear, “Mainly, it’s the words ‘rice cakes’ that scared me.” Th.ê most uptodate novels are published on n(0)velbj)n(.)co/m

“What’s wrong with rice cakes? It’s just a kind of snack. Although I haven’t tried it before, I heard it’s quite famous,” Jiang Li asked somewhat puzzled.

“Don’t tell me you haven’t heard of this saying?” Zhou Chao looked at Jiang Li with a strange expression.

“What saying?” Jiang Li looked at Zhou Chao completely clueless.

“A knife assesses the forest’s collapse, two knives make the old horse shed tears, three or four knives cause the economy to collapse directly, five knives make Gates collapse, six knives shatter the earth, seven knives make the universe collapse, and eight knives lead to reunion in heaven!”

After Zhou Chao finished speaking, both Jiang Li and Lin Wu burst into laughter.

“Brother Chao, you’re really talented!” Jiang Li wiped away tears of laughter.

“It’s not me who said that. It’s what those powerful netizens online say!” Zhou Chao didn’t want to take credit for it. He had just seen it occasionally on the internet before.

“Is it really as mysterious as you say? Let’s give it a try. Buy a bit and taste it. Although it’s not authentic rice cakes, rice made ones are still quite good.”

Zhou Chao didn’t refuse. Even if it turned out to be real rice cakes, buying a few wouldn’t be a big deal for him, especially when it was just twenty-eight yuan per jin.

With Zhou Chao’s consent, Jiang Li took a few steps forward to the food truck.

“Hello, miss. How about getting some of these?” The owner of the glutinous rice cake was a middle-aged woman with a slightly plump figure, giving people a very honest feeling.

“Alright, chalk it up as a lesson learned. Just be more cautious next time!”

Jiang Li nodded at the words. “Okay, but what should we do with so many glutinous rice cakes we bought? I don’t know how long it will take to finish them!”

“No problem, just leave them all to Lin Wu. He’s especially good at eating!”

Upon hearing this behind them, Lin Wu felt a bit embarrassed. He looked down at the large bag of glutinous rice cakes in his hand and wondered how many days it would take to finish them.

Just as Zhou Chao and the others were about to continue their stroll, Zhou Chao’s phone in his pocket suddenly rang.

“Who’s calling?” Jiang Li asked curiously.

Zhou Chao took it out and checked. It was a call from his father-in-law.

“Dad, it’s from you,” Zhou Chao said as he answered the phone.

“Hey, Xiao Chao, do you have time now?” Jiang Youdao’s firm voice came through the phone.

“What’s up, Dad?”

“Nothing urgent. If you’re busy, forget it!”

“Whether I’m busy or not, I’m out shopping with Jiang Li right now. What’s the matter?”

“Both you and Jiang Li, come over to the house. We’ll talk when you get here!”

Hearing this, Zhou Chao felt a bit puzzled. Was there something important that couldn’t be discussed over the phone?

Though he had his doubts, Zhou Chao still agreed, “Okay, Dad, we’ll come right over.. Luckily, we’re not far from home!”
