4141 The Fox takes advantage of the Tiger’s might
Therefore, this so-called ‘spirit replenishing and Qi transforming soup’ made Ling Chuxi feel nauseated, but the others drank it with relish. As they drank, they were full of praise: “Good soup, good soup. Only the city amongst the clouds can drink such a good soup with such a rich taste, thick color, and good fragrance.“
“Blargh …” Ling Chuxi was still able to hold it in, but Ling Yixin and the others could not help but throw up. They were not disgusted by the soup, but by this sentence.
“Sister Chuxi, why don’t we go back and roast some meat?” Ling Yixin looked at Ling Chuxi pitifully.
Ever since they had tried Ling Chuxi’s barbeque skills, they no longer had any interest in eating anything. They always felt that something was missing, not to mention the large basin of “hot-pot water” in front of them.
Ling Zhongxiao and the rest had the same look in their eyes. They would rather go back and spar with Meng Zheng than stay here any longer. The dishes were disgusting, and the intoxicated expressions on the diners ‘faces were even more disgusting.
“Alright,” he said. Ling Chuxi resisted the urge to vomit and was the first to leave the restaurant.
“My guests, you’re finally back.” As soon as he returned to the inn, the manager came up to him.
“What’s the matter?” Ling Chuxi asked.
“It’s like this, there’s something I want to discuss with you. ” The shopkeeper’s face was full of smiles, but his eyes were a little troubled.
“Why are you talking so much nonsense with them? hurry up and make them give up the courtyard.” A young man in his mid-twenties said impatiently.
It was only then that Ling Chuxi and the rest noticed that there were more than twenty young people standing in the inn. They were obviously disciples of aristocratic families who had come to participate in the selection. However, looking at their clothes, they should not be from the same family.
“Did you hear that? hurry up and give up the courtyard. Otherwise, you’ll all have a good time.” Another young man also jumped out and said while jumping up and down.
“Why? we were clearly here first. Why should we let you have it?” Ling Yixin said, unconvinced.
“Why? just because my big brother is from the Zeng family!” The young man who had jumped out later pointed at the young man who had jumped out earlier and said arrogantly. He was like a fox exploiting the Tiger’s might.
“Jade heart city? the Zeng family?” Ling Yitong asked.
It had been a while since Ling Chuxi returned to the Ling family and she had some understanding of the ancient aristocratic families. The Zeng family, Jade heart city, was a large city in the West of the heaven domain. The Zeng family was the number one ancient family within a few thousand miles of Jade heart city. Although they couldn’t compare to the Ling family from twenty years ago, they were still one of the most powerful ancient families.
It was no wonder that the shopkeeper was in such a difficult position. He must have already known the other party’s background, which was why he did not directly reject them and instead wanted to discuss it with him. However, the other party clearly did not want to listen to him waste time and wanted to directly use his power to bully him.
“That’s right, I am the young master of the Zeng family of Jade heart city, Zeng fanjian!” Seeing that Ling Yitong knew the Zeng family’s name, the young man’s vanity was satisfied a little, and he said proudly.
But very soon, he could not be proud anymore.
“You’re really cheap, not pretending to be cheap?” Ling Chuxi looked at him in surprise. She had thought that the name she had come up with was of no standard, but there was an even worse one. The young miss Ling had been defeated.
“Nonsense, did the ancient aristocratic families even have a person called Jia fanjian? This young master will never change my name, Zeng family’s young master, Zeng fanjian!” Zeng fanjian did not notice Ling Chuxi’s strange expression at all. He stuck out his chest and said this with an arrogant expression.
