Lu Xingchen chose an empty table that had more people and sat down.
Lu Xingchen glanced at the menu.
The food on the menu looks expensive; it's the kind of meal that would make you feel the pinch for half a day.
She showed it to Gao Dafu and Gu Yanzhi, but Gu Yanzhi just shook his head. Gao Dafu took the menu, looked at it, and ordered a plate of meat buns and three bowls of white porridge.
This is the cheapest thing on the menu.
The dwarf glanced at him, rolled his eyes, and was about to say something when Lu Xingchen suddenly coughed and touched the white jade cane.
Seeing the white jade cane, the dwarf's pupils trembled, and he immediately became more respectful, nodding and bowing, saying: "Master, please wait a moment, the food will be here soon!"
Lu Xingchen received two more shocked looks.
It’s Xuanyuan Batian.
On their table were three portions of plain congee, a plate of steamed buns, and two dishes whose ingredients were unclear.
Xuanyuan Lingyun said softly, "Brother, can we not order food? That dwarf just now was not happy about it."
Xuanyuan Batian withdrew his gaze: "Eat your food, and listen carefully!"
They're here to hear news too.
Lu Xingchen looked around the restaurant.
Surprisingly, the restaurant was quite clean, and there was a large fish tank in the middle of the pillar, filled with small fish of various colors.
Gao Dafu also saw it and chuckled: "You really pay attention to Feng Shui!"
Gu Yanzhi: "Shh...listen!"
They came here to listen to the news.
The people around them ate and chatted.
"Old Ji has made a fortune again, I'm so envious!"
"It's hard to say about the others. Old Man Ji's inn is really affordable, but it's too remote. Most people can't find it."
"They don't make money from the inn; they make money from safes and cotton-padded clothing stores, haha!"
Thief099: "Hahaha, who wouldn't make money? I'll go out and steal a few more later."
Xuanyuan Lingyun glanced at Xuanyuan Batian and said softly, "We'll ask Old Man Ji who he is and where his inn is later."
Xuanyuan Batian nodded: "The Charm Card will be very useful to you. Come and ask me later, even if it costs money, to find out where the Awakening Flower is!"
Gao Dafu nudged Lu Xingchen with his elbow and whispered, "Are they also looking for the Awakening Flower?"
Lu Xingchen pondered for a moment: "They also have Mira's mission."
Realizing they could hear each other, Xuanyuan Batian and his group fell silent.
Lu Xingchen and the others listened for a long time but didn't find any useful information.
At this moment, a plate of steamed buns and three bowls of white porridge were served. The dwarf respectfully asked Lu Xingchen, "Would you like some side dishes and desserts? These are complimentary from our restaurant."
Lu Xingchen casually replied, "I'll take one."
Soon, the dwarf brought over a small plate of cold dishes and a small plate of desserts, and placed them on Lu Xingchen's table.
Lu Xingchen and Gu Yanzhi didn't like sweets, so they casually gave the small dessert to Gao Dafu.
Gao Dafu has a sweet tooth; after taking a bite, he immediately exclaimed, "Delicious!"
Xuanyuan Badao looked at this side eagerly and tugged at Xuanyuan Batian's sleeve: "Brother, I want to eat too."
Xuanyuan Batian beckoned the dwarf over and asked, "Are the desserts free?"
The dwarf said happily, "It's free."
He spoke very quickly and indistinctly, making it difficult for anyone to understand him.
Xuanyuan Batian asked again, "Is it free?"
The dwarf got impatient: "It's free? Are you deaf?"
Xuanyuan Batian: "Then give us one."
Dwarf: "Yes, distinguished guest."
