"He's out." Zhou Jiazhi, who saw Luo Yu first, said to the two of them. Standing among a group of curious students who couldn't help but look at them, Luo Yu, who walked with his head down and had no sense of presence, seemed even more obvious.
When the three of them saw Luo Yu, they immediately walked up to him.
"Hero, you finally came out. We have been waiting for you for more than half an hour." The important thing is that Zhou Jiahao couldn't stand being treated like a monkey. After all, their current image is not very good.
"Oh, it's you. What's the matter?" Luo Yu raised his head and asked lightly.
"Haha, let's go find a place to eat and talk while we eat." Zhou Jiahao stepped forward and stretched out his hand, wanting to put his hand on Luo Yu's shoulder.
“Swish…Bang…”
"ah……"
When the sound of slaughtering a pig was heard, people around immediately looked at him in surprise.
"Ah... my waist hurts so much..." Zhou Jiahao howled while lying on the ground.
Luo Yu was stunned and quickly helped him up, "Sorry, it was an instinctive reaction." At the moment when Zhou Jiahao's hand was about to touch his shoulder, Luo Yu's body reacted instinctively, and he reflexively grabbed Zhou Jiahao's hand and threw him over his shoulder. Fortunately, he reacted in the middle and thus relieved most of the force. Otherwise, with Zhou Jiahao's small body, it would be impossible for him to stand up.
"Ouch, I must have twisted my waist." Zhou Jiahao held his waist with a painful expression on his face.
"You brought this upon yourself. Okay, let's go first. We can talk later if there's anything else." Sun Minghao looked at the increasing number of students around him and said to Luo Yu, "We'll treat you to lunch at noon. Will you do me the honor?"
Luo Yu thought about it and realized that his father and mother had gone out for something at noon, so his mother gave him money to eat out. Originally, Luo Yu wanted to go home and cook for himself. After all, he hadn't tried cooking since the system rewarded him with a basic cooking skill. Now that someone was treating him, he didn't have to buy groceries and cook himself, so why not?
The four of them took two taxis. Luo Yu didn't ask where they were going to eat, but just sat quietly in the back. Sitting next to him was Sun Minghao.
"As a powerful second-generation, shouldn't you drive a luxury car when you go out? How can such a shabby taxi be worthy of a noble and elegant female?" The system began to mutter in Luo Yu's mind again.
Luo Yu didn't bother to pay attention to it. With corruption being investigated so strictly these days, what official would be so foolish as to buy a nice car for his underage high school son and let him drive it? Wouldn't that be a public announcement that there was something wrong with his father as an official?
The three of them followed Luo Yu to a high-end Italian restaurant.
"This restaurant has just opened. We wanted to come here before, but unfortunately we didn't have time. Today is the perfect time. We must try the food here and see how it tastes." Zhou Jiazhi said to Luo Yu with a smile.
Luo Yu glanced at Zhou Jiazhi, who was smiling meaningfully, and said nothing.
This is a typical Italian-style restaurant with a comfortable and pleasant decoration style and a very good environment. There are also outdoor seats for romantic guests.
"Let's go." Sun Minghao took the lead and walked into the restaurant.
"Hello, welcome. How many people are there?" asked the pretty waitress at the door with a smile.
"Four." Sun Minghao said.
"Okay, this way please." The waiter took the four people to a seat by the window, and a young foreign male waiter in his twenties then brought the menu.
"Take a look and decide what you want to eat." Sun Minghao handed the menu to Luo Yu.
Luo Yu had never been a polite person. Since they had told him they were treating him to a meal, he took the menu and flipped it open. Without hesitation, he spoke to the foreign waiter next to him in fluent Italian: "One braised ox elbow with Italian wild mushroom chicken soup, and a cheese pie to finish the meal. That's it."
The foreign waiter was visibly taken aback when he heard this, but he quickly reacted and started pressing the order meter in his hand. He hadn't expected Luo Yu to speak Italian, and his accent sounded so pure to him, an Italian. If you ignored Luo Yu's black hair and yellow skin and only listened to his voice, you would have thought he was Italian.
After ordering the dishes, Luo Yu handed the menu in his hand to Zhou Jiahao next to him.
Zhou Jiahao was stunned after hearing Luo Yu say a bunch of incomprehensible words. Now, when he opened the recipe book, he was dumbfounded. The recipe book was filled with some incomprehensible Italian words. He didn't even know English, let alone Italian. Looking at the recipe book, Zhou Jiahao decisively handed it to Zhou Jiazhi, "Brother, give it a try."
After Zhou Jiazhi took it, he was speechless for a moment. Sun Minghao saw that the two of them were staring at the menu in a daze, not ordering anything. A little impatient, he directly pulled the menu from Zhou Jiazhi's hand and said, "It takes so long to order something. Why not just order whatever you like? Then..." Then Sun Minghao was also stuck. After a long while, he pointed at Luo Yu and said to the waiter, "Give me the same one he just ordered."
"I want one too." Zhou Jiahao said.
Zhou Jiazhi smiled awkwardly and said to the waiter, "Then I'll give you four of the same."
"Okay, please wait a moment, all four of you," the waiter said in stiff Chinese. Before leaving, he even glanced at Luo Yu.
After the waiter left, he realized that he had taken the wrong menu. To express his apology, he served four appetizers to the four people. Only then did Sun Minghao and the other two realize that they had taken the wrong menu. No wonder there was not even a picture, only a bunch of Italian words.
"Luo Yu, do you speak Italian?" Sun Minghao asked curiously.
"I know a little bit. I've been watching Italian movies and documentaries lately." Luo Yu, whose intelligence is over 70, learned Italian through watching these movies and documentaries. Moreover, he speaks Italian better than some Italians.
Hearing Luo Yu say this, the three of them felt deeply shocked. Learning Italian just by watching movies and documentaries? Is this really necessary to be so discouraging?
Sun Minghao changed the subject, "Um, Luo Yu, thank you for last night."
"No need to thank me, they're just blocking the way." The implication was that he had no intention of saving them.
“…”
Can we still have a good chat? Why didn't I realize this guy was so arrogant before? But Sun Minghao liked this personality. He smiled and said, "No matter what, you saved the three of us. From now on, you are my friend, Sun Minghao. If you need anything, just come to me."
"Yes, yes, hero, oh no, Luo Yu, I haven't introduced myself yet. I am Brother Hao's good friend. My name is Zhou Jiahao, and I am now in my senior year at Yucai High School." Zhou Jiahao said enthusiastically.
"My name is Zhou Jiazhi. I'm Jiahao's cousin and I'm also a senior at Yucai High School." Zhou Jiazhi said with a smile.
"Luo Yu, Chongyang High School, Grade 3, Class 7." Luo Yu spoke concisely. He had been this way since childhood, rather aloof. Even with those closest to him, he didn't talk much, let alone three complete strangers. Yes, even though he and Sun Minghao were classmates, to Luo Yu, he was still a stranger.
Soon, the four people's orders were served. The braised veal knuckle and Italian wild mushroom chicken soup were a perfect match. Although Luo Yu felt that the sauce on the veal knuckle and the chicken soup were a little off, it was still quite good. Since acquiring the basic cooking skill, Luo Yu's palate has become increasingly discerning. A good chef not only needs to be able to cook, but also to eat.
The three young masters seemed to rarely eat Western food and were somewhat unaccustomed to using forks. In contrast, Luo Yu's every movement seemed to have a rhythmic quality; every gesture, every expression, was utterly elegant. Even though he was wearing simple casual clothes and his bangs half-hidden his face, it couldn't conceal his noble aura.
How could a person's temperament change so quickly? Sun Minghao and the other two were stunned. Seeing Luo Yu eating elegantly, their movements unconsciously slowed down, becoming a little cautious. Even if they couldn't be elegant, they couldn't be rude either, right?
After lunch, Luo Yu left alone and went home, while Sun Minghao and the other two went to another restaurant.
"It's still better here. You can eat whatever you want. No need to be so restrained." Zhou Jiahao, who hadn't eaten at all, ordered a lot of things as soon as he arrived at this restaurant. As soon as the dishes were served, they started to eat like a whirlwind.
"Eat, eat, eat. All you do is eat." Sun Minghao rolled his eyes at him.
"Brother Hao, after what happened today, I will never go to any western restaurant again. Not only will I not be full, but I will also feel restrained and uncomfortable. Especially when I was ordering the dishes just now, it was so embarrassing." Zhou Jiahao didn't want to think about it anymore.
"Although this process was a little different from what we had envisioned, we still achieved our goal. Luo Yu is truly remarkable." A typical person would be curious, perhaps even a little uncomfortable, visiting such a high-end restaurant. However, Luo Yu seemed accustomed to it. As they were leaving, Zhou Jiazhi saw him chatting with the waiter. While he didn't know what they were talking about, Luo Yu's Italian was definitely more than just the little he claimed.
"So what if it's simple? So what if it's not simple? As long as it's worth making friends, why bother about it so much?" Sun Minghao is a man of his word and he is also overbearing. There are very few friends who can be favored by him and whom he acknowledges as his friends.
That lunch was essentially a test. The fact that they could take their classmates to such an expensive Western restaurant meant that their families were not ordinary. If Luo Yu had ulterior motives, he would have tried to curry favor with them. Clearly, he didn't, and was even somewhat indifferent. If it were anyone else, they might have thought he was playing hard to get, but seeing Luo Yu's elegance and noble demeanor while he ate lunch, which put even the three of them to shame, they dispelled all suspicions.
The noble aura bred from an ancient family was not something that ordinary people could possess. They had researched Luo Yu's background and learned that his family was just an ordinary, well-off family, his ancestors having been ordinary farmers. However, Luo Yu possessed both martial and literary talents, and in particular, he had achieved top marks in the city's joint entrance exam. It seemed he had been hiding his abilities. They would never believe him if he said he had no master behind him.
Since they knew that he had no connection with those people last night, and that he had no intention of approaching them, and that Luo Yu's personality was to their liking, and most importantly, that Luo Yu was capable. Without any ability, it would not be easy to get any of them and enter their group.
In fact, it is not their fault for being suspicious. There are too many people who want to get close to them with ulterior motives. So if Luo Yu was just an ordinary person without any ability, they would just give him some benefits. They would definitely not become friends with him just because he saved them last night.
