Chapter 283: Chapter 283 Unexplainable Mysterious Existence

"No," he responded merely that and offered no further explanation.

Lin Zhi didn’t ask any more questions.

If it wasn’t an accident, then it must have been illness or suicide...

"Let’s go have dinner," Ji Liancheng told her.

"Okay," Lin Zhi nodded.

The dishes had been prepared in advance, just with two additional fish dishes. One was steamed, and the other was braised in soy sauce.

But what surprised Lin Zhi was that besides these two dishes, the rest were very ordinary.

There were only three dishes and one soup, all homestyle and common.

The soup was also a simple kelp and pork rib soup.

She had thought that Ji Liancheng’s meals would always be lavish. Yet they were so down-to-earth.

"What, does it not suit your taste?" Ji Liancheng asked her.

"No, I’m just surprised. I thought you always ate like you were at a Manchu Han Imperial Feast," Lin Zhi said teasingly.

Ji Liancheng replied indifferently, "There’s no need to be extravagant when dining alone. Besides, eating a Manchu Han Imperial Feast too often would get tiresome, it’s enough to have it occasionally."

"You’re really frugal. Before I knew you, I thought you lived like the Emperor. Now I see I was being too superficial."

Ji Liancheng, with an uncommon smile, said, "I’m not the Emperor, just an ordinary person."

"How are you an ordinary person? If you’re ordinary, then what are we?" Lin Zhi countered.

Ji Liancheng explained in a low voice, "I’m no different from anyone else. In essence, we all go through birth, aging, sickness, and death and have to work hard. People’s needs are limited; eating out of a golden bowl won’t grant me longevity or extra limbs."

Speaking of longevity reminded Lin Zhi of his health condition.

There was still a bullet lodged in his brain.

Yet he always seemed fine, as if nothing was wrong. Was his health really not a concern?

In his previous life, he died at the age of thirty-five.

Now he was only 25, still ten years to go.

All of a sudden, Lin Zhi wasn’t too worried. Perhaps in these ten years, a miracle might happen.

"By the way, weren’t you looking for my help with something? You never mentioned it, and I almost forgot. What do you need me for?" Lin Zhi asked him while eating.

Ji Liancheng replied, "There’s no rush, we’ll talk about it later."

"What is it exactly?" Lin Zhi asked curiously.

In truth, he didn’t know how to say it...

"Do you believe that there are unexplainable, mysterious phenomena in this world?" Ji Liancheng suddenly asked her.

Lin Zhi was taken aback and felt a bit anxious.

Had he noticed something?

Her Holy Hand was an unexplainable mystery...

"Why do you ask? Though I guess in the vastness of the universe, anything’s possible, so maybe they do exist."

Ji Liancheng nodded, "That’s what I think too."

And then?

Then he said nothing more, and Lin Zhi inexplicably didn’t dare to ask.

The meal went by relatively quietly, and Lin Zhi found the cooking of Ji Liancheng’s chef absolutely delicious. Even simple homestyle dishes were given a unique flair.

She nearly finished off half the plate of tender bamboo shoots stir-fried with shredded pork all by herself...

"Burp—" The moment Lin Zhi put down her chopsticks, she accidentally let out a satisfied burp and felt incredibly embarrassed.

Normally, she didn’t eat this much.

"Your chef’s cooking is just too delicious," Lin Zhi said sheepishly in an attempt to explain away her faux pas.

Instead of teasing her, Ji Liancheng seriously explained, "His cooking is indeed delicious. He’s versed in almost every cuisine. Next time you come, you can tell him what you like, and he’ll make it for you."
