Chen He spoke sweetly, using the method of provoking the other party.
The eight great families are second only to the five great sects. They fight among themselves but also unite against the outside world.
Therefore, the relationship between the five major sects and the eight major families is very delicate.
The Shangguan family was severely damaged due to the internal strife for the position of the previous head of the family. It is at the bottom of the eight major families and its status is similar to that of the Xuantian Sect.
But the Yufeng I met in Wuwang City was different. He was the next generation heir to the head of the eight great families.
"Chen He, do you really not remember me? I am Brother Shangguan Xun!"
The suspicion in Shangguan Xun's eyes disappeared, and he said with joy, "What a coincidence to meet you here. How about I treat you to a meal?"
"elder brother!?"
Shangguan Ziyue looked at Shangguan Xun in disbelief, but was stopped by her eyes.
In anger, Shangguan Ziyue stomped her feet and left.
She didn't want to stay in this place after losing face today.
"Just leave the spirit stone here. You don't need to eat with me. I'm afraid I'll get sick."
Shen He walked out from behind Shen Dan and straightened his back.
"After all, we are all upright people who can kowtow to our ancestors. We cannot lower our status."
Shangguan Xun's face turned blue and then white, and then white and then blue again. He even wanted to strangle Chen He to death.
But his public persona is that of a handsome gentleman, so he naturally cannot ruin his image.
"You."
Shangguan Xun looked helpless and threw a storage bag over.
"Forget it. Since Xiao He is just being childish, I won't make things difficult for you as your brother. Consider this meal my treat..."
Chen He accepted the compensation and immediately called out, "Waiter, get a private room on the second floor. Put it on Shangguan Xun's account. He wants to treat us."
Chen He originally planned to smash it with silver himself, but this time it was easier.
As for the level of cultivation that determines which floor to go to...
Chen He glanced upwards. They were both in the Nascent Soul stage. She had used spiritual power when she shouted just now, so the other party should know it.
Don't show off your strength in public.
Is there anything wrong with an eight-and-a-half-year-old Nascent Soul going to the second floor?
It’s not that Sanlou doesn’t want to go, but he’s afraid that Shangguan Xun can’t afford it and he’ll have to pay for it himself in the end.
That would be a loss.
Shangguan Xun: I didn't say that! It wasn't me who said that! She's lying!
But the people eating in the lobby were all from various powerful forces, and many of them knew him, so he could only accept this loss with a pinch of his nose.
"This girl is much more willful than before. There's really nothing I can do about her."
Shangguan Xun wanted to run away without paying the bill, but he couldn't afford to lose face, so he could only follow the waiter to pay the bill with a sad face.
Fortunately, the rule on the second floor is that the bill is calculated according to the private room, rather than ordering food independently.
Otherwise, Shangguan Xun would have to run away, fearing that his entire family fortune would be lost on this meal.
As Chen He and his companions went upstairs, the door of the private room at the corner of the second floor was finally closed.
"This little girl is quite interesting. She tricked Shangguan Xun like this, yet he had to endure it. Young City Lord, I will go and find out who she is."
As a follower, Deyi is the best at figuring out his master's intentions.
As the young city lord, Yu Xiaoyao likes to eat here the most, but he usually comes alone and randomly finds a private room on the second floor.
Because this is where you can hear all the gossip in the lobby.
In other words, they have money to burn and nothing to do.
As the young city lord, does he need to eat such expensive meals and listen to these gossips that have nothing to do with him?
"Go check on the guy called Chen He."
Yu Xiaoyao leaned against the soft chair, looking nonchalant, which was not unrelated to the elegant and graceful figure rumored by the outside world.
It's just irrelevant.
Her appearance is one in a million, but her manners are not at all good.
It would be more appropriate to say that he is a playboy.
"Young City Lord, he's still a child."
The corners of his mouth twitched with pride. Could it be that his master had some special hobby?
Yu Xiaoyao just picked up the wine glass and threw it directly at Deyi.
"What are you talking about? This young city lord just thinks this little girl is interesting. I happened to be bored these past few days and wanted to kill some time. What are you thinking about?"
The young man pretends to be calm in front of others because he has an unshirkable responsibility.
But people will get tired, and their nature will not be destroyed because of their identity.
In private...
Of course you have to live your own life, otherwise your life will end early.
Shen He didn't know that someone was targeting her, or she was a fish in Shen Rongrong's pond, otherwise she would definitely...
Actively jump over.
If you can't kill him, just trick him into becoming one of our own, and absolutely don't give any help to Shen Rongrong.
After the meal, even a greedy cat like Chen He had to admit that the food and wine that attracted so many guests were indeed delicious.
The key is that they use particular ingredients, not only are they fresh, but they are all top-quality meat from spiritual beasts.
The only drawback is that most of the spiritual beasts are farmed, so they lack the taste of wild game.
After dinner, the group went shopping.
Chen He had no idea how big Yushan City was.
However, this city, backed by the Qingyu Sect, is even more prosperous than the capital, which makes Chen He excited to visit.
But apart from snacks, Chen He didn't buy anything worthwhile.
There are so many good things in the storage ring, there is no need to waste money.
But in the eyes of Shen Dan and others, Chen He was reluctant to spend the spirit stone.
They all understand that Xuantian Sect is poor.
So the few of them tacitly said nothing, but bought some things for Chen He that they could afford, and planned to give them to Chen He when they returned.
Although the meal that attracted so many guests was free, it was also obtained by Chen He.
Moreover, Chen He had said from the beginning that he would treat them, so they had to accept the favor.
