Chapter 532: Chapter 572, Drinking Buddies

The elderly man had a small vegetable garden in front of him, which, although not very large, was filled with a variety of vegetables: Chinese lettuce, cabbage, cauliflower, garlic sprouts—it had everything. Right next to the vegetable plot was a hoe and a bucket of clear water.

Beside the elderly man lay a hat and a mature, steady cellphone, together with a pack of cigarettes and a lighter.

Upon hearing Fang Yi’s voice, the elderly man turned his head to look over. When he saw Fang Yi, a stranger, he was obviously taken aback and stared as he asked, "Who are you?"

"I am your..." Fang Yi instinctively started to say ’I am your biggest supporter,’ but he quickly came to his senses, recalling Zhou Xuewen’s advice to keep a low profile in this place, where some retired veterans lived. The man before him might well be one of these retired figures.

Keep it low-key!

Fang Yi hastened to say with a smile, "Elder, I am your relative."

"Relative?"

"Yes, a distant relative, a very distant one," Fang Yi said.

"What’s my surname, then? What’s my name?" the elderly man asked.

I knew you were going to ask that, Fang Yi thought to himself as he said with a smile, "I won’t say."

The elderly man said, "It’s not that you won’t say, it’s that you don’t know." There was a hint of mockery in his eyes.

Fang Yi, not blushing or skipping a beat, responded, "I know, but I just won’t say."

The elderly man looked at Fang Yi in a curious way and said, "I’ve seen people with thick skin before, but never as thick as yours. Do you know who I am?"

"Who?" After a moment’s thought, Fang Yi replied, "You must be a retired veteran from Tianjing."

The elderly man’s gaze became even more curious and he said, "I am Zhu Youde."
