50 Heaven

After opening the door, the aromatic smell of food made all of them hungry. Though they all held it in and just waited in anticipation for the food, but there was one person who couldn't hold it in and whined as her stomach rumbled. Ming Ming grabbed Wang Ming's leg and wanted him to carry her again while she begged for food.

"Daddy! Please give me food, Ming Ming's hungry!"

Ming Ming's stomach kept rumbling and she just couldn't stand still and kept jumping up and down, Wang Ming smiled and said.

"Just wait a bit, Ming Ming, then you can eat as much as you like, okay?"

"Mmmh daddy."

Grabbing Ming Ming again and pinching her cheeks, Wang Ming then showed everybody into his restaurant and seated them. For now, there weren't any customers except from the people he had invited, so Wang Ming didn't need to take orders or anything like that and served everybody some water first.

But when he served everybody water, he realized what he had forgotten. He realized Louzheng wasn't here yet, he should have been here at least 30 minutes ago. Excusing himself he went out to give Louzheng a call, but as soon as he opened the door he saw Louzheng arrive, but looking at his face Wang Ming saw Louzheng had totally red eyes and walked with clenched fists, his face and hair drenched with sweat. It wasn't too hot today, so Wang Ming didn't know why he had sweat so much.

Feeling curious, Wang Ming asked him what had happened.

"Louzheng, what happened with you? Why are you so late?"

Louzheng felt guilty but also more irritated, but since he was late, he apologized to Wang Ming.

"I'm sorry, Wang Ming. The taxi I took broke down in the middle of the road. So I had to take another taxi, but when that taxi arrived a man snatched the taxi before I could and even gloated at me. I punched him in the face before the taxi took off, but then no more taxis arrived so I had to run to the restaurant."

Wang Ming knew how hard it was to get a taxi around these times. He still remembered when he still was in the wheelchair and tried to take a taxi, no one would ever give up the taxi for him. Instead of feeling sympathy for a handicapped person, they would instead try to exploit him. So he didn't hold it against Louzheng.

"Don't worry, hurry and take a shower and change clothes. The guests have arrived I'm going to need your help."

Seeing that Wang Ming didn't blame him made Louzheng energized.

"Thank you. Wang Ming!"

Smiling when seeing Louzheng's departing back, Wang Ming also went inside the restaurant to serve Meng Hao and the others.

Closing the door, Wang Ming was happy to see that everybody was talking happily with each other. Lang Lin and Fu Ya were talking with each other, Peng Tong, Meng Hao, Uncle Fu and Uncle Hou also talked with each other. Wang Ming felt his heart sweeten when he saw Fu Ya and Lang Lin got along with each other.

As many women are jealous of each other, but looking at them talk they looked harmonious. He would love to become one of their lovers, but knew they were way above his league.

Clapping his hands to get everybody's attention, Wang Ming then said.

"Thanks everybody for coming today. Everybody here should know that all of you are someone important in my life. That's the reason you are here today, and I hope this stays for the rest of my life. Now I only have one dish in my restaurant, so I hope you guys will enjoy it."

Peng Tong was starving so he couldn't help but shout out playfully while clapping his hands.

"Please serve the food Big Brother, I'm DYING."

Wang Ming went towards the heating cabinet to take out the food. Taking on heat-resistant gloves, Wang Ming took out 6 clay pots and served them to each person, which would give three meat pieces to each person. Fu Ya would share with Ming Ming. Then Wang Ming also gave them one bowl of rice each and said.

"Everybody, I want you guys to open up the clay pots now."

Hearing it, they popped the lid of the clay pots, which filled the restaurant with a pleasant smell. They could almost taste the meat through the smell. The person who felt most excited for the food was Uncle Hou. He had been waiting for the food ever since he smelled the food when Wang Ming opened the door. But now smelling it directly from the source made him even hungrier.

Looking at the meat, they were all shocked by how bouncy and soft it looked. Lightly shaking the clay pot also made the meat shake and bounce. Some of them even thought Wang Ming had server them jelly.

Since Uncle Hou was the oldest, they all waited for him to taste the food first before indulging.

Cutting into it, he grasped how tender the meat was. His knife went straight to the meat with minimal effort. Cutting the meat into four pieces, Uncle Hou took a large piece of meat with his fingers, grabbed the piece of meat and put it in his mouth.

After Uncle Hou put the piece of meat in his mouth, Uncle Fu and the others waited for a reaction. But they felt confused when Uncle Hou only frowned and closed his eyes, not giving them any reaction. Waiting for 30 seconds, they finally saw a tear trickling down Uncle Hou's face. Why was he crying?

"Wang Ming, this is the best braised pork belly I've ever eaten. I don't know how but you got it. This dish made my heart tremble. I feel like my old ma in heaven is talking with me. I'm in Heaven."
