Chapter 329: Unable To Rescue?
Huang Xiaolong and giant ghost Feng Yang climbed up to the first floor upon entering the restaurant, but he didn’t expect to run into the restaurant’s boss just as he stepped on the second floor. Seeing Huang Xiaolong, the boss’s eyes widened to the size of fists, he was so excited that there were tremors in his voice, “You, you’re Young Noble Huang?!”
Although it had been many years since Huang Xiaolong left the Luo Tong Royal City, and just as many years since he visited the Delicious Restaurant, the boss still recognized Huang Xiaolong in one glance.
He might forget others, but not Huang Xiaolong!
Huang Xiaolong was someone that represented the Luo Tong Kingdom in the in Duanren Empire’s Imperial City Battle, the legendary figure that won the first place, how could he forget!!!
That year, Huang Xiaolong won the Duanren Imperial City Battle’s first place, when the news was sent back to the Luo Tong Kingdom, celebrations were held throughout the kingdom. King Lu Zhe held a three-day celebration feast when he announced the glorious achievement!
Moreover, the boss was well aware that Huang Xiaolong was someone that even the sole Marshal of Luo Tong Kingdom, Marshal Haotian was respectful to!
Watching the restaurant boss’s expression, Huang Xiaolong smiled and nodded slightly, he didn’t expect the boss to remember him after so many years.
Seeing Huang Xiaolong admitted his identity, the boss grew more enthusiastic, nearly performing a full kneel and kowtow to salute Huang Xiaolong. Huang Xiaolong easily stopped the boss’s action, extending his left hand out, indicating him to stand up while his eyes looked at him and then the surroundings meaningfully.
Watching Huang Xiaolong’s actions, the restaurant boss instantly understood that Huang Xiaolong didn’t want others to know of his presence. Only then did he hurried to a stand, but even so, his demeanor was of utmost respect, the angle of his waist probably exceeded ninety degrees. He personally led Huang Xiaolong to a secluded section and took Huang Xiaolong’s orders.
Other customers noticed the complaisant attitude of the restaurant boss before Huang Xiaolong, most were shocked and curious.
A short while later, the boss excused himself respectfully.
While waiting for the dishes to arrive, the sudden loud commotion on the streets attracted Huang Xiaolong’s attention. Huang Xiaolong looked outside through the restaurant’s window and saw the common subjects moving in small and large groups heading in one direction.
At this time, discussions on tables nearby reached his ears.
“Quickly eat, after we finish eating we’re rushing over to the square across the palace doors to watch a good show!” One customer said.
“Life is really strange, ah, who would’ve thought that, as a Prince, Lu Kai would end up so tragically.” Another person commented.
Lu Kai?! Huang Xiaolong was stunned hearing Lu Kai’s name being mentioned.
‘What is happening?’
“Young Noble Huang, your dishes are here.” At this point, the restaurant boss returned, personally bringing Huang Xiaolong his dishes.
As he put the plates one by one on Huang Xiaolong’s table, Huang Xiaolong questioned, “About Lu Kai, what’s that all about?”
The restaurant boss’ action lagged for a second, not knowing what to say. It was known to many people in the Royal City that Huang Xiaolong and Prince Lu Kai were good friends back in the day, thus he also knew.
“Speak!” Huang Xiaolong’s face sank, exuding a powerful momentum that enveloped the entire restaurant. The noisy restaurant instantly fell into a dead silence, the customers all around were filled with apprehension.
Whereas the restaurant boss was so scared that he fell to his knees, “Huang, Young Noble Huang…” ashen face and cold sweat, he looked at Huang Xiaolong with awe.
