"Scarred Eye," he replied nervously, "my name is Scarred Eye."
"Scarred Eye?" I laughed. "That's quite an interesting name. Does it mean you have a scar?"
Scarred Eye nodded and said, "Pretty much."
I chuckled and said, "Alright, Scarred Eye, I'm going to serve you a dish called 'Braised Pork Trotters.' Make sure to savor it."
Scarred Eye looked confused. "What? Braised Pork Trotters?"
I smiled but didn't respond, just gave a knowing glance to Liu Liu.
Liu Liu understood and brought the heated iron pot to the table. She suddenly pressed Scarred Eye's hand into the pot and ladled the boiling broth over his hand.
"Ah! Ah! Ah!" Scarred Eye let out a series of piercing screams.
I frowned and said, "This pork trotters smells terrible; I can't eat it like this. Have him put his hand in to help me wash it."
Liu Liu nodded. "Yes, my lord."
With that, Liu Liu held down Scarred Eye's hand and pushed it forcefully into the broth.
"Ah! Ah! Ah!" Scarred Eye's cries grew even more tragic.
I sighed and said, "Look at you; the pork trotters are so foul-smelling and bloody. How am I supposed to eat now?"
Liu Liu quickly apologized, "My lord, forgive me. My lord, forgive me."
I waved my hand, "Forget it, let's leave this bowl of pig trotters here for now, and I'll take it back later to feed the dog."
Liu Liu nodded, "Yes, my lord."
I pointed at Scarred Eye, "Did he not wash his hands just now?"
Liu Liu looked over, "It seems so."
I glared at Liu Liu, "Then why did you let him touch the pig trotters?"
Liu Liu smiled wryly, "My lord, I was wrong."
I huffed, "Be more careful next time. If I see anything dirty on the pig trotters again, I'll chop off your hands."
Liu Liu shivered in fear, "Yes, my lord."
I turned to Zou Tianyi, " Family Head Zou, don't you think these pig trotters are not fresh?"
Zou Tianyi quickly shook his head, "No, no, these pig trotters are very fresh and delicious."
I smiled, "Since you like them so much, go ahead and eat more."
After saying that, I gave Liu Liu a knowing glance.
Liu Liu grabbed a piece of pig trotter and forcefully stuffed it into Zou Tianyi's mouth.
Zou Tianyi nearly choked and rolled his eyes.
I smiled and said, " Family Head Zou, don't rush, take your time eating."
Zou Tianyi forcefully swallowed the pig's trotter, his face pale, gasping for breath, unable to say a word.
I looked at Zou Tianyi and said with a smile, " Family Head Zou, look at how this situation has escalated. We were friends before, and now it has turned into this. It's really..."
Zou Tianyi looked at me and managed to squeeze out a faint smile, "Sir, please don't say that. It's our fault, it's our fault..."
I sighed, "Alas, what's done is done. It's too late to say anything now. Family Head Zou, how do you think we should resolve this matter?"
Zou Tianyi gritted his teeth, "Sir, just tell us what you want us to do. We will absolutely comply."
I laughed heartily, "Good! Family Head Zou, you're straightforward. Then I'll be direct."
I stood up, walked in front of Zou Tianyi, stared at him, and slowly said, "I want you to write a statement and firmly accuse Lin Mautsai."
Zou Tianyi was taken aback for a moment. "Accuse... accuse Lin Mautsai?"
I nodded. "That's right."
Zou Tianyi hesitated. "Sir, this..."
