Chapter 37: Small in stature, but powerful

Saturday, Chengdong District Food Street, Ping'an Noodle House.

"Uncle Tian, ​​two bowls of beef noodles!"

"Xiao Lu, you clearly said you would take me out for a nice meal! Why did we end up eating noodles at Uncle Tian's place again? Is this the nice meal you promised us? Damn it!"

Inside the noodle shop, Mu Xiaoye looked at Lu Chen angrily, just like a little goldfish blowing bubbles in the pond.

Before Lu Chen could answer, a tall figure came up behind Mu Xiaoye and tapped her head lightly with his hand.

"Hey, Uncle Tian, ​​why did you hit me?"

Mu Xiaoye turned around and saw Yu Tianqi, who was two meters tall, muscular, and gray-haired, with his arms folded across his chest. He said in dissatisfaction, "What's wrong, Xiaoye? Are you starting to dislike my cooking skills now?"

"What do you mean it's not a feast when I come here? How can the food outside be as good as the noodles I make?"

"Eat at my place. Even if the taste is a little worse, it's still clean. You're still picky. You don't know how to appreciate what you have."

"Xiao Lu, you two wait a moment, Uncle Tian will serve you the noodles soon."

After saying that, the tall Yu Tianqi turned around and went to the kitchen to make noodles.

In the huge noodle shop, only Lu Chen and his companion were left, as well as a white-haired elementary school student who was eating noodles in the corner and a three-headed strange bird who was also eating noodles next to her.

The elementary school student just took a curious look at the two people after they came in and then continued to eat noodles with his head down, slurping them up.

Mu Xiaoye looked at the pile of empty bowls on the white-haired elementary school student's desk, as well as the three-headed strange bird that was also serving fancy noodle soup, and couldn't help but whisper to Lu Chen.

"Xiao Lu, look at her appetite. It's so big."

"And her strange bird shouldn't be an ordinary pet, but a spiritual beast, right?"

Lu Chen nodded without saying anything more.

After all, he noticed the weird combination of the white-haired girl and the three-headed bird as soon as he entered the store.

Besides having a big appetite, there was another thing about the white-haired girl that Lu Chen was very concerned about.

That was her heartbeat, which was even stronger than Ye Chenglin's corpse in the copy.

Doesn't this mean that her physical strength may even be higher than Ye Chenglin who is in the foundation building stage? !

When this thought came to his mind, Lu Chen was a little scared by himself.

But this idea was so credible that he couldn't help but regret bringing Mu Xiaoye to Uncle Tian's place to eat noodles.

After all, ever since he had practiced Water Dragon Chant to the point of breaking through, his hearing had been greatly enhanced.

This enhancement does not allow him to hear farther or more clearly.

Instead, it allows him to hear many things that ordinary people cannot hear.

For example, the heartbeat frequency of a person, or the slight vibration of some objects.

And he relied on this point to discover many monsters in the secret realm in advance.

So although Lu Chen appeared normal on the surface, he was actually very wary of the white-haired girl in his heart.

You can't afford to offend this person. You absolutely can't afford to offend this person.

She is definitely not an ordinary person.

Thinking of this, Lu Chen hurriedly wanted to change the subject and asked Mu Xiaoye not to say anything more so as not to offend others unintentionally.

Fortunately, at this time, Uncle Tian came out in time with ten bowls of beef noodles and placed two of them in front of them.

However, when Mu Xiaoye saw his bowl of beef noodles, he immediately said in dissatisfaction: "Uncle Tian, ​​why is there so much more beef in Xiao Lu's bowl than in mine? You are too partial!"

Yu Tianqi gave Mu Xiaoye a displeased look.

"Isn't this because someone just told me to keep in shape and put less beef in noodles in the future?"

"Why did you suddenly change your mind and decide not to lose weight anymore?"

"Ah? Did I say that myself?"

"Isn't it?"

Mu Xiaoye scratched his cheek awkwardly, his eyes wandering as he said, "Okay, it seems so."

“Puff.”

Seeing that the little devil Mu Xiaoye was ruthlessly suppressed by Uncle Tian, ​​Lu Chen on the side couldn't help but laugh.

But this smile brought him disaster.

You like to laugh, right? Then stop laughing! "Well, Xiao Lu, not only did you lie to me about having a big meal, but now you're making fun of me."

"Hurry up and say sorry to me, or I will really be angry!"

“…”

A smile will not disappear, it will just move from one person's face to someone else's face.

For example, the smile on Lu Chen's face disappeared and moved to Yu Tianqi's face next to him.

Lu Chen looked at the angry Mu Xiaoye and had to say, "I'm sorry..."

Before Lu Chen could finish his words, Mu Xiaoye's big, caring eyes rolled around and she suddenly interrupted him.

As she picked up the chopsticks, she said righteously, "Forget it, forget it. I, Mu Xiaoye, am not a stingy person. I won't blame you."

"Give me a little bit of the beef in your bowl, and I'll take it as your apology."

Having said that, Mu Xiaoye didn't wait for Lu Chen to respond, and stretched out her chopsticks into Lu Chen's untouched beef noodles.

One, two, three...

This is too much, really too much! Lu Chen looked at the beef noodles in his bowl, which were about to turn into clear soup noodles, and he instantly became angry.

"Stop, stop, stop. Didn't we agree to get better?"

Mu Xiaoye looked at the pile of braised beef in her bowl and was so happy that her two little canine teeth showed.

"Yes, isn't this 100 million points?"

Hearing Mu Xiaoye deliberately emphasize the word "billion points", Lu Chen knew that she was trying to trick him.

You are so good, Mu Xiaoye, aren’t you bullying honest people by doing this?

Seeing Lu Chen's speechless face, Mu Xiaoye suddenly changed the subject.

"Forget it. I won't tease you anymore. This bowl is for you."

The latest novel is published first on Liu9shuba!

Under Lu Chen's surprised eyes, Mu Xiaoye pushed the bowl of beef noodles in front of him.

First it was a deliberate hardship, and then it was a heartwarming blow.

Although he was unwilling to admit it, Lu Chen was indeed aroused by Mu Xiaoye during the pulling and tugging.

No, could it be that this guy had expected all this? When did she become so good at this? "Did you do this on purpose?"

Hearing this, Mu Xiaoye said with a smile: "Lululu, I don't understand, I don't understand."

Yu Tianqi on the side looked at the two of them and shook his head helplessly.

Childish, these two people are so childish.

You are already an adult, but you are still playing these little tricks of pulling each other.

In my time, let alone raising children, they could just do the cooking!

I’m old now and can’t stand such disgusting scenes. I’m leaving now!

Yu Tianqi brought the remaining eight bowls of beef noodles to the side of the white-haired girl and placed them on the table.

"Uncle Tian, ​​are you familiar with those two people?"

"You mean Xiao Lu and Xiao Ye? I watched them grow up. Do you think they are familiar to me?"

Bailing was seen eating noodles while looking at the two people not far away seriously.

Yu Tianqi seemed to have thought of something, and lowered his voice and said: "Xiao Ling, although there are some things that I can't say now, Xiao Lu and Xiao Ye are just ordinary people, just ordinary people, don't involve them."

"The Shanhai Division has enough people. We don't need these two. Do you understand?"

In response, Bai Ling answered very seriously: "But what if they are willing to join?"

Yu Tianqi was silent for a moment and then said, "...Then I can't control it."

Hearing this, Bailing put the empty bowl of beef noodles aside and picked up a new bowl of beef noodles.

While eating noodles, he looked at Lu Chen and Mu Xiaoye from afar, his eyes full of interest.

"Uncle Tian, ​​you know some people are destined not to be ordinary."

"The people in Shanhaisi are all monsters, and they only raise monsters, because only monsters can fight monsters."

"I think the two of them, especially the man, are very suitable to come to our Shanhai Division, don't you think?"

"After all, Xiao Shang wouldn't be curious about ordinary people..."

When Bai Ling mentioned himself, the three-headed strange bird, which had been showing off its face, raised its head in surprise.

Then he glanced at Lu Chen who was not far away for a few more times before lowering his head to eat noodles again.

Seeing this, Yu Tianqi sighed and said, "Alas, it's fate. I'm old now and can't care so much."

"But there is one thing I must remind you of. If Xiao Lu and the others are unwilling, and you force them to make a decision."

"Then I won't stand idly by. After all, my old bones...are not yet to the point of falling apart."

As soon as the words fell, the three-headed bird, which was originally eating noodles with its head down, was startled instantly, its feathers standing on end, and it looked at Yu Tianqi beside it with horror, as if it had sensed something terrifying.

In response to this, Bailing remained very calm.

She put down her chopsticks and said calmly, "Uncle Tian, ​​you can rest assured about this. We in the Shanhai Division are not that overbearing."

Yu Tianqi groaned and whispered, "It's better this way."

After Yu Tianqi left, Bai Ling looked at the three-headed bird beside him with confused eyes and asked doubtfully: "Xiao Shang, is our Shanhai Division very domineering?"

When the three-headed bird named Shangfu heard this, complicated expressions appeared on all three heads, and it didn't know how to respond.

Because in a sense, they, the Shanhai Division... are indeed quite domineering.

After all, if you are not domineering, how can you manage a group of monsters in the company? And the person who can manage monsters is also a monster, right?
