Chapter 620: Trouble
"I heard eldest brother and brother Jiang came back, but I haven’t seen either." Yu Chang sighed, causing several people to look at him in embarrassment.
"Did you try to find them?" Jiang Xing asked, and Yu Chang immediately nodded.
"How long have we been in this world? Why haven’t you learned some common sense?" Jiang Xing mocked.
"Common sense? I have learned it all." Yu Chang proudly declared.
"You clearly haven’t. If you had, you wouldn’t try to find my brother and brother Yu so soon after they returned."
"What do you mean?"
"Don’t you know? Cultivators like to double cultivate before or after their retreat."
"...but..." Yu Chang started, but someone directly interrupted him.
"It’s the same for trips."
"Your eldest brother and brother Jiang have just returned from a long trip. It’s natural to go into seclusion together."
"Is that so?" Yu Chang frowned and subconsciously peeked at the girl beside him.
The girl was Su Meihui.
On Earth, they used to be college classmates, but their relationship was ordinary.
However, the Su family was a close friend of the Yu family.
When the Yu family chose to leave Earth, a few of the Su family decided to follow.
Su Meihui was among these few.
At that time, Yu Chang didn’t think anything of it.
However, as time passed, his attitude shifted.
Without his notice, Su Meihui became more than a classmate.
Consequently, Yu Chang began to notice everything about her.
He noticed her clothes.
Her shoes.
Her hair.
Her smell.
Her smile.
...and before he knew it, Yu Chang even began to notice her subtle expressions.
Now, he only needed to glance at her to know what kind of mood she was in.
Was she happy?
Was she sad?
Was she confused?
Was she hungry?
Unfortunately, the young man who suddenly became interested in a girl didn’t know what to do about it.
Thinking of this, Yu Chang sighed and took a big mouthful of wine.
"Drink slowly." Su Meihui reminded.
"Mmmm." Yu Chang nodded but didn’t slow down his drinking.
Seeing this, Jiang Xing snorted.
’Idiot.’ She thought.
As an outsider, she naturally saw what was going on.
Most importantly, she knew Yu Chang was not one-sided in his feelings.
However, she didn’t intend to help the couple.
After all, it was better to watch a good show than eat dog food.
’I hope they won’t get together until I find a partner. Otherwise, I will have to live a life of eating dog food.’ She thought but failed to notice that someone was always looking at her.
’I have a long way to go, but I won’t give up.’ Lin Feng thought with a determined expression.
Seeing the determined expression, Jiang Han secretly smiled.
’I can enjoy a good show no matter where I look.’ He thought.
As the group was chatting and having a good time, a shadow fell over their table.
Reflexively, everyone turned to look.
The shadow was a fat man.
At a glance, the person was less than one hundred and sixty centimetres tall but weighed over two hundred kilograms.
He was wearing a yellow robe, yellow boots, and a yellow hair tie.
However, his expensive attire was not enough to distract from the unseemly layers on his neck, and tiny eyes that were disappearing into folds of fat.
"Does the young master need something from us?" Jiang Han asked.
However, the person didn’t even look at him.
Instead, his beady eyes took turns to stare at Jiang Xing and Su Meihui.
Seeing this, several people frowned and glared at the young master.
’What an ill-mannered person.’ Jiang Xing thought and decisively ignored the young master.
"Let’s get ready to leave." She said.
"Sister Jiang, where should we go next?" Someone asked.
However, before Jiang Xing could answer, an arrogant voice resounded in the small space.
"I will accompany the beautiful ladies to wherever they want to go." The young master proudly thumped his chest.
When they heard this, the surrounding guests sighed and shook their heads.
"Is the young master going to steal people again?"
"How many has it been?"
"Beauty is the source of all misfortunes."
"Can’t someone do something about this person?"
"What can be done?" Someone said with a hint of despair in her voice.
"The city lord has eight daughters but only one son. If anyone dares to deal with this son, the city lord will not let them go."
"...but he is going too far."
"I know what you mean." A man sighed.
"He has abducted other people’s wives and even raped the daughters of prominent families. However, no one can do anything because they are too afraid of the city lord."
"Those female cultivators are out of luck."
"The best thing they can do is to go quietly. If they fight, the young city lord will not harm them but may kill their friends and families."
"Speaking of killing friends and families..., did you hear?"
"About the young couple? I heard it. The young city lord tried to steal a married woman, but she refused to cooperate. In the end, the young city lord killed her husband. However, when she found out, the girl exploded herself and almost killed the young city lord. Unfortunately, he has too many defensive treasures and his life was saved."
"Good people die early, but scourges live for ten thousand years."
"Does anyone know who these youngsters are?"
"I don’t know, but they shouldn’t be from our Tianqi city."
"How good would it be if they have a powerful background? That way, someone may finally do something about this evil young city lord."
"I also..." Someone started but suddenly stopped.
A moment later, his jaw dropped in shock.
"Someone actually dared to attack the young city lord." The man muttered, and everyone turned to look.
At the same time, a terrified scream echoed in the restaurant.
From different tables, everyone watched as the young city lord grabbed a pitcher of water and poured it on his head.
Unfortunately, this was not enough to douse the fire that was rapidly burning his hair.
