Chapter 653 - A Waste of Time Talking to You (1/2)
In an unsophisticated quadrangle courtyard, when the door is closed, you can vaguely hear bikes’ chains rolling, bells ringing clearly and locals speaking dialects.
Yet, on either side of the yard lies the vegetable garden, which looks quite agreeable and refreshing.
On the stone table in the center, there is a bird’s cage. Yue Xincheng hasn’t seen the bird in the cage before, but he can feel the energy fluctuation of the bird. Evidently, this is a rare beast too.
An old man wearing the grey Chinese tunic suit is eating his meal, sitting on the stone bench. The dishes include the braised pork with brown sauce, shredded pork with vegetables and two vegetable dishes. Next to his feet is the electronic cooker.
“Sir, eating meat without garlic will decrease the flavor by a half!” Yue Xincheng looks around and jokes.
The middle-aged man glances at Yue Xincheng with a weird look.
Feeling the glance of the middle-aged man, Yue Xincheng is somewhat uneasy. Now, countless possibilities just flash across his mind. After excluding various possibilities, he asks worriedly, “Are you Lord Dragon King?”
“Bingo but no prize for you,” After saying that, the middle-aged man strides forward, fetches the bowl from the old man’s hand and fills his bowl with rice.
The old man smacks his lips, looks up at Yue Xincheng and asks grinningly, “Have you eaten anything?”
Yue Xincheng doesn’t know what to say.
On the plane, Yue Xincheng was a bit excited.
He knows that this time, he can get to meet Lord Dragon King in the capital, who predominates over all the cultivators like a mountain.
Therefore, he has imagined numerous times what Lord Dragon King looks like and how majestic he is. To his surprise, Lord Dragon King turns out to be a very ordinary old man. If this old man strolls in the street, holding a bird’s cage and rubbing two walnuts in his palm, he will be drowned in the crowd soon. He is literally not distinctive at all…
Hence, Yue Xincheng can’t help gasping now.
Tsk.
The feelings are so beyond description…
“Lord Dragon King has asked you a question,” the middle-aged man passes the bowl of rice to the old man with both hands and then reminds Yue Xincheng to give a response.
“I…haven’t.” Yue Xincheng is a bit struggling.
“Good. Let’s eat together!” The old man waves at Yue Xincheng.
Actually, that is what he was struggling about.
He just feared getting a reply from the old man like that.
“What are you afraid of? If Gao Ge were here, do you think he would be afraid of me?” Dragon King coughs and says.
Yue Xincheng thinks about it and smiles. Then he just sits down at once.
The middle-aged man fetches the bowl and chopsticks. He wanted to fill the bowl with the rice for Yue Xincheng but the latter just takes the bowl over. “Let me do it myself.”
He is quite sensible.
Those who can guard Lord Dragon King can’t be ordinary.
It is reasonable that the middle-aged man fills the bowl with the rice for Dragon King but Yue Xincheng doesn’t feel that he can be that prestigious to let the middle-aged man do it for him too.
Being neither humble nor pushy is one thing but being too rash is another.
Well…
This time, he is here on behalf of his boss so he can never do anything shameful. If he does anything inappropriate and becomes a laughingstock, how can he have the cheek to meet his boss then?
“Are you Yue Xincheng? I know you!” The old man speaks while eating. Not many people can keep quiet while eating and sleeping. After all, the Huaxia people all like to chat over the meal, for they think it is the most comfortable moment.
