Excessive explanations seemed unnecessary. Zhang Ziwen simply mentioned that he had lost his phone and hadn't changed the number yet with some perfunctory words, then he asked Kai Zi, "Now that you've found me, tell me, what the hell happened to you? Why didn't Fatty come with you to find me? Isn't that guy always glued to your side? He isn't starving like you, is he?" Zhang Ziwen wondered if Hai Dafu was in a similar bind seeing Kai Zi like this.
Lighting a cigarette, Kai Zi forced a smile and said, "Are you talking about Big Ocean? He's got it much better than me; he doesn't have to worry about food, and what's more, it's all on the house. I reckon that'll keep him fed for decades."
"On the house?" Zhang Ziwen's heart skipped a beat. Something had gone wrong.
