Chapter 279 News from the Western Region
In an instant, everyone in the restaurant focused their attention on him. Where did these people come from? Did they want to cause trouble?
The restaurant manager just glanced at them lazily, and the waiter next to them took out the menu and gave it to them, obviously letting them read it themselves.
One of the twins snorted, then looked at the menu. "What? A level 4 city-state NPC is still mid-level. How can they be so poor?"
The residents here all know that the store manager has a bad temper and he just wipes the cups and doesn't want to pay attention to them.
The oldest one did not stop the two girls.
After ordering the dishes, the manager said nothing and the few of them found a seat to sit down.
They went to the second floor, and the two girls started looking around as soon as they sat down. Soon their eyes were attracted by a man sitting by the window.
As Shen Jufeng raised his cup to drink water, two girls appeared beside him.
"Brother, what's your name? Can we sit next to you?"
"Brother, are you a resident here?"
Lu Jiu, who was sitting next to Shen Jufeng, looked at the two girls who suddenly appeared. Where did they come from?
The two girls saw Lu Jiu looking at them with contempt and dissatisfaction in her eyes, "Auntie, please make room for me."
Yong Lin, who was sitting opposite, almost spit out his food. These two girls were so mean-spirited. Sister Lu looked about the same age as them, and was much prettier than them.
Zhuang Yun: "We are just some friends having dinner together, please don't disturb us."
Shen Jufeng also put down the cup and said, "Get out of here." Dare to call his girlfriend auntie? Don't these two look in the mirror?
The two girls' originally cute expressions immediately collapsed at Shen Jufeng's face, "What kind of person is that? You think you are so great just because you give me face."
Lu Jiu put down his chopsticks, his expression indifferent. "Hey, you two, where did you come from? How could I provoke you just because I was having a good meal? Just apologize and leave."
The two girls just rolled their eyes and said, "Who do you think you are?"
"You should be thankful that you're not in Linyu Province. Otherwise, if you spoke to us in that tone today, you would have been dead long ago."
After they finished talking, they turned around and were about to leave. If they had a softer temper, the conversation would probably have ended there, and at most they would have called the other person a princess.
But Lu Jiu's temper has changed a lot. It's easy to imagine what kind of person he is who is causing trouble on someone else's territory. It's impossible to let him go.
She acted quickly, grabbed the girl's left hand, placed it on the table, and stabbed it through the table along with the dagger.
"ah--!"
The other girl saw her sister being treated like this, and the little color on her face drained away. "You, you guys..."
She never expected that there would be people in the city who would attack them. What kind of people are these?
The girls' screams not only attracted the attention of other residents, but also caused the older man who had been indulging the girls' behavior to stand up.
"Everyone, please stop."
Lu Jiu sat there with his arms folded, the dagger stuck in the girl's hand. The wound could not heal until it was pulled out.
The dagger was fixed by Shen Jufeng, so the girl couldn't pull it out by herself.
The two young boys were obviously even angrier and immediately took out their weapons and wanted to fight.
Lu Jiu took over Shen Jufeng's task and pressed the dagger. Shen Jufeng's strength was obviously stronger than the two of them. With a sweep of his sword, the two of them fell to the ground without even being able to hold their weapons. Their fate was the same as that of the girl. One of their hands was pierced by the dagger and fixed to the table.
Shen Jufeng was calm and composed, "Okay, everyone sit down and have a good talk."
Lu Jiu also looked at the girl whose hand was not pricked. When the girl saw her icy eyes, she immediately sat down at the table next to her.
The older man spoke calmly, not seeming angry. "We two young ladies are very sorry for offending you. They are young and ignorant. I hope you will forgive us."
The girl whose hand was pierced was obviously dissatisfied with the older man's words. There was resentment in her eyes when she looked at the man. She felt that what Uncle Lu should do now was to get rid of these people.
But now her hand was still hurting, her originally pretty face was distorted, her eyes were covered with snot, and she didn't dare to say a word.
Lu Jiu didn't respond and asked directly, "Are you from Linyu Province?"
The impatient young man next to him lost his temper. "Yes, we are from Linyu Province. Those two girls are the cousins of the Lord of Nanyuan City, the most powerful city in our province. Why don't you let them go?"
Lu Jiu didn't even blink. "You should have seen the email when you entered the city. It contained Xuantian City's city rules. One of them is not to provoke trouble. If you deliberately cause trouble for others, the harassed person can use force to resolve the issue. That's enough. Obviously you didn't read it."
It’s none of her business where these two daughters are from. Once they come to Xuantian City, they must abide by the rules of Xuantian City.
The older man remained calm and said, "I sincerely apologize to you all. We didn't pay attention to the city regulations."
Lu Jiu, however, looked at the girl beside him and said, "Miss, please apologize."
People have to bow their heads under the eaves. Even if the girl felt resentful, she was overwhelmed by the pain. "Yes, I'm sorry——"
Then the girl sitting next to her suddenly realized what was going on and immediately apologized, "I'm sorry, I'm sorry."
In Linyu Province, the sisters can act as they please, but it is obvious that this is not Linyu Province, and they do not have their cousin to support them.
Lu Jiu then pulled out the dagger, and the girl's wound healed quickly. She had always controlled her attack value, and this time she wanted to use the pain to teach her a lesson, not to think that she could cause trouble wherever she went.
Ever since some people became city lords, the city lords' so-called relatives seemed to have benefited from their success, and many of them were extremely arrogant.
The other residents who had been watching the show started laughing.
"What? I thought he would be tough."
"It's boring."
"Let's go, let's keep drinking."
…
However, Lu Jiu began to be curious about their coming here, "Why are you here? It's already autumn."
Instead of being busy killing monsters and collecting resources, he is in the mood to cause trouble in other provinces. Moreover, the older man doesn't seem to care about the rest of the people at all.
He was indifferent to the girl being attacked and seemed to be happy about it.
The older man answered truthfully, "I just happened to receive a mission from the city lord to come to Long Province to look for someone, and the two young ladies are accompanying me. These two young men are the young ladies' friends, so they came along."
It turns out that he is not a bodyguard, he is just here to carry out a mission, and the others just followed along.
Lu Jiu wasn't interested in who he was looking for. "I looked at the map and saw that Linyu Province borders the western region. I wonder if you know anything about that place."
The older man just shook his head. "I haven't been there, but when we set out, some people wanted to go there, including my friend. He said there was unrest there, and that the entire region and several provinces were caught up in it. I think they mentioned Yanjing, but I'm not sure of the details. If you guys want to go to other provinces and cities in the future, it's best not to go to that part of the west."
Shen Jufeng nodded and said, "Thank you for your reminder. We have finished eating, so we won't disturb you. I hope you will read the email reminder carefully when you go to other city-states in the future."
This was said rudely. Except for the older man, the other four people were angry but dared not speak out.
