“I was just waiting for you to come back and eat with me. Let’s go eat noodles and find a hotel.”

Ye Xuan nodded and replied. Thinking about how he hadn’t eaten noodles for a long time, he was a little greedy.

However, Sixth Sister Ye Meng shook her head and spoke professionally.

“You don’t understand, do you, Little Brother? Delicacies like noodles still have to be eaten in small alleys. Those are authentic. I know a good place. It’s on South Street. I’ll bring you to try it.”

After saying that, she looked out of the car window expectantly. She recalled the noodle shop in the alley that her best friend had recommended to her. From her best friend’s tone and expression, this restaurant would definitely not disappoint her.

“Then I want to see how delicious it is.”

Ye Xuan nodded and smiled. Then, he leaned against his soft Sixth Sister and turned to look at the night view outside the car window, looking forward to the feast for his taste buds later.

After a while, the custom-made Rolls-Royce Phantom Extended edition arrived at South Street. Then, they found a parking lot and stopped by the side of the road. There was no need to deliberately remind Zheng Jianghao where to go. Anyway, he could hear what they were saying, so he naturally knew what to do.

After the car stopped, Zheng Jianghao got out of the car and opened the back door to welcome Sixth Sister Ye Meng and Ye Xuan respectfully. Then, he closed the door and followed behind, turning from a chauffeur to a bodyguard.

However, they were in the country after all, and it was a busy city. There was nothing dangerous about it. He was mainly afraid of some wrangling. It was better to have someone following them than nothing.

However, Ye Xuan felt a little awkward. It was a family gathering, so he felt a little awkward with someone else following him. Hence, he turned around and gave Zheng Jianghao a look. Zheng Jianghao immediately stopped and nodded before retreating into the shadows by the street.

South Street was very lively. It was a nightless street. However, even so, the east of the street and the west of the street were two completely different places. Perhaps the east of the street had inherited some eastern aura, but the business here was extremely good. There were all kinds to do along the street. Barbecue was the most common. Furthermore, it was the most lively.

There was basically an endless stream of people coming here all night. There were people coming and going 24 hours a day.

The main reason was that it had developed well and sold everything. Gradually, it became a frequent place for the residents of the surrounding districts. There were always some places in a city where guests from all directions gathered. It also gathered a portion of the city’s vitality.

If a city lacked such a place, it would feel cold and deserted in the city. It would lose a lot of popularity.

This was also why the New Year celebrations now were not as fun and exciting as the New Year celebrations in the past. Those living in the city might not be able to experience the joy and happiness, but those living in the village would naturally be able to.

The children would all wear new clothes and play outside together. The villagers pasted couplets and blessings, slaughtered pigs, chickens, and ducks, and shouted at the stray dogs who were sniffing and waiting for food. They chased after the wild cats who had stolen the fish for a long time.

Smoke curled up from the chimneys. The adults were busy in the kitchen, and the children were running and playing crazily outside. The pedestrians on the road greeted one another. When night fell, every house lit up with lanterns. Fireworks would go off and shadows would flicker.

They walked around one another’s houses and walked around with bowls in their hands. They gave one another’s children red packets and carried wine glasses to and fro.

In such an environment, the entire village was filled with the smell of the new year. It was filled with the aura of such people. When the lonely souls and wild ghosts by the mountain saw this, they could not help but tear up.

Where there was no one, there would be no human aura. Without any human yang energy, it would feel cold and desolate. Over time, it would become a habitat for lonely ghosts.

Meanwhile, wherever there were people, it would be filled with people. No matter which corner it was, there would be a sense of warmth. It made people not feel lonely or afraid at all. It was very warm.

This was the case on the east side of the street. It was lively and comfortable. However, on the west side of the street, it was unknown what was going on. At a glance, it was incomparably desolate. It was rare for pedestrians to walk past in groups of twos and threes, but they only left in a hurry. Although there were many shops around, it was rare to see a few buyers. Only the shop owner sat outside while smoking a cigarette and looking at the grand occasion on the west side of the street with envy and melancholy.

Sixth Sister Ye Meng looked at the desolate situation on the west side of the street and sighed. Coincidentally, the noodle shop they were going to this time was in this west side of the street. It was only now that she understood why very few people knew about such a delicious noodle shop. It was because of the trend.

Ye Meng recalled that when her best friend recommended this shop to her, she said that she wanted to come to the west side of the street to take a look at this noodle shop. The moment she entered, it was as if she had discovered a new continent. This made Ye Meng feel that as long as the taste was passable, she would have discovered a new continent.

After taking a few steps, the two of them arrived at the west side of the street. The entire street was cold and cheerless, and it felt much colder than the east side of the street.

Although the lights were brightly lit, she felt that there was much less smell, making her inexplicably feel a little afraid.

As a staunch materialist who firmly supported the Chairman’s party platform, Ye Xuan was not afraid of these things. He had some rage and wanted to defeat all kinds of people.

However, Sixth Sister Ye Meng was still a little afraid. However, there was nothing unusual on the surface. It was probably the environment that made her feel this way.

This couldn’t help but make her sigh. If this place was turned into a filming place, it would be really suitable.

Just as she was thinking this, an alley appeared in front of her. This alley was dark, and only a few shops were still open. The dim yellow light made it look very exciting.

If not for her little brother following him today, Sixth Sister Ye Meng would never have entered such an alley. It was fine if it was a ghost, but there might be some people inside.

Seeing this, Sixth Sister Ye Meng took out her cell phone and opened WeChat to complain to her best friend.

[This is too dark. What place did you recommend? If it doesn’t taste good, just wait!]
After typing, she turned on the flashlight on her cell phone and led Ye Xuan into the alley.

From the bright environment outside, it looked very dark in the alley. However, once one walked in, they would feel that it was not very dark. After gradually adapting, their surroundings became very clear. Moreover, this alley was not a particularly dark place where they could not see their fingers. It was just that it looked much dimmer than the bright streets outside.

It was probably because there were no street lamps. It was indeed very dim with only the lights of a few shops.
