Chapter 403 - 401: Something’s Off in the Restaurant
After sitting down, Fang Kun said indifferently to Fang Xiaoli.
In his view, no matter how powerful Chen Tianlong was, he was just a student from South Sea City, and truly powerful ancient martial cultivators were rare in the mortal realm. Therefore, he felt that his Yellow Dao four-star strength was already the peak.
No wonder, previously Chen Tianlong was not a cultivator, so Fang Kun naturally did not regard him highly.
"Uncle, let’s not rush. We need to seize the right opportunity. This time, we mustn’t let that kid escape," Fang Xiaoli said lightly.
Fang Kun nodded and the two began to order food.
"Waiter, we’d like a serving of boiled beef, bitter melon fried with egg, sauteed vegetables with garlic, and black chicken lotus seed soup. Please make sure none of the dishes are too salty, and don’t add chili."
Chen Tianlong carefully repeated.
"Alright, sir, please hold on a moment, I’ll prepare it right away." The waiter smiled slightly and retreated.
However, when Chen Tianlong turned back, he saw Lin Wushuang staring at him in a daze, with a face full of disbelief, and more than anything, with emotion.
At this moment, she felt like crying!
Damn, aren’t these dishes all her favorite ones?
And even her preference for mild flavors and dislike for spicy food was remembered clearly by Chen Tianlong. Whether it was intentional or he remembered it by heart, it moved Lin Wushuang immensely, nearly bringing her to tears.
"Wushuang, what’s wrong?"
Chen Tianlong suddenly noticed Lin Wushuang’s eyes were a bit red and instinctively hesitated, asking.
"Ah? Oh, it’s nothing, just got some sand in my eye, wiped it off," Lin Wushuang lied.
"Oh, alright. Is it better now, or should I blow it for you?" Chen Tianlong said earnestly, with no teasing intent, but it moved Lin Wushuang inexplicably.
What’s happening today?
Why does she feel Chen Tianlong is so good, just like her boyfriend, attentive and thoughtful, making her momentarily a bit lost.
"Oh... no need, I’m fine now."
Lin Wushuang felt the atmosphere between the two was too ambiguous and a bit uncomfortable.
"As you wish!"
Chen Tianlong smiled slightly and didn’t say another word.
Suddenly, his gaze swept across and caught Fang Xiaoli looking over from diagonally opposite. That instant’s look left an image in Chen Tianlong’s mind, flashing by like a movie.
"It’s him! Why did he come to South Sea City?"
Chen Tianlong was shocked in his heart. This was Fang Xiaoli from Ice City, and after returning to South Sea City and searching online, he discovered the Fang Family was a very formidable ancient martial family.
Now that this kid is in South Sea City, he’s definitely not here for tourism but has another purpose, and this purpose is likely against him.
Thinking of this, Chen Tianlong became a bit apprehensive.
With Lin Wushuang by his side, if anything really happened, he couldn’t deal with it immediately. After all, protecting the young mistress was his responsibility too.
"Your dishes are all ready, please enjoy!"
Suddenly, two waiters came over with two large trays of dishes, neatly arranged them on the table, and said with a smile.
"Thank you!"
Lin Wushuang smiled sweetly and nodded.
After the waiters left, the two began eating, and since these were all Lin Wushuang’s favorites, her appetite was particularly good.
During the meal, Chen Tianlong occasionally helped Lin Wushuang serve dishes, making her blush several times.
However, the tenderness of this moment made Lin Wushuang deeply attached, wanting to refuse but also reluctant to do so, thus this scene continued until they were almost finished eating.
At this moment, there was finally movement at Fang Xiaoli’s table as Fang Kun stood up, holding a wine glass, walked over, and sat down beside Lin Wushuang.
"Hey beauty, let’s be friends!"
Fang Kun, taking advantage of having had some drinks, pretended to be crazy and reckless, said unrestrainedly.
Lin Wushuang was startled by this sudden action, looking around, she found it was a man in his forties.
A pungent smell of alcohol assaulted her, making Lin Wushuang unable to resist pinching her nose and holding her breath.
"I don’t want to talk to you, please leave immediately!"
Taking a deep breath, Lin Wushuang, angered, spoke to the others.
Her voice was soft yet firm, attracting the attention of nearby people.
But since most of them were accompanied by women, they couldn’t intervene, and more importantly, the girl across wasn’t sitting with her boyfriend or husband?
Chen Tianlong furrowed his brows. This person came from Fang Xiaoli’s table, indicating it couldn’t be simple.
So, Chen Tianlong planned not to act too soon, waiting to see what he intended to do.
"Haha, a beauty is a beauty, even angry she looks so pretty, I like it."
Fang Kun said, with his left hand reaching over improperly, attempting to hold Lin Wushuang in his arms.
This scene surprised everyone present. Was this person a lunatic or fool, hugging someone’s woman in front of her man? Isn’t he looking for death?
"Slap!"
A loud slap sounded, evidently Lin Wushuang had struck.
And on Fang Kun’s face, a large red and swollen area appeared, but he wasn’t angry; instead, he smiled cunningly. This was Fang Xiaoli’s plan, having Fang Kun come over not really to take advantage, but to provoke Chen Tianlong.
This way, if Chen Tianlong did act, the justification would be more adequate, and it could make him lower his guard, fighting for a woman.
"Hey, so satisfying!"
Fang Kun touched his cheek and continued to drink.
"Pervert! Get lost immediately!"
Lin Wushuang exploded with anger; what kind of person is this, getting slapped yet feeling comfortable, simply a nutcase!
"Haha, really? In that case, I’ll be even more perverted!"
As soon as he finished speaking, Fang Kun bent over to kiss Lin Wushuang, intending to molest her.
In that moment, Chen Tianlong finally couldn’t resist acting. Although he didn’t know the other’s strength, with such a threat to the young mistress, if he still held back, he’d no longer be Chen Tianlong.
Only to see Chen Tianlong grabbing the person’s arm firmly, then pulling outward with force, and Fang Kun instantly reacted, hurriedly reaching out to grab, then standing up.
At this point, a slight smirk curled at the corner of Fang Kun’s mouth; his sunglasses were casually thrown aside, revealing a face full of a wicked smile.
Lin Wushuang had been startled earlier, but fortunately, Chen Tianlong acted in time; otherwise, she truly wouldn’t know what to do.
Chen Tianlong turned and arrived at an open spot in the restaurant, and Fang Kun, being sensible, didn’t continue to lay his hands on Lin Wushuang but instead headed towards Chen Tianlong’s direction.
"I don’t care who you are; your actions today have already harmed the person I protect, and that’s your own fault," Chen Tianlong threw out the harsh words.
"Haha, young man, stop talking big. Want to fight? Then show some skills, don’t just spew crap." Fang Kun said roughly, if it wasn’t for the mission, he wouldn’t bother talking to Chen Tianlong and would directly fight.
Fang Xiaoli remained seated at the table, raising his head to drink a cup of wine, a sly smile flickering across his face.
