Novel Full 61 The Gluttons
IT FELT REALLY peculiar for people to see a group of two little kids with one young man supporting the sleeping other. If this was on Earth, everyone would think they were doing a play or a drama.
After asking some of the people in the city, they finally arrived at the most renowned restaurant that Lin Diyu’s master told him to go to. As soon as they were at the doorstep, a waitress or some sort of attendant from the restaurant attended them. Her ears were still the same ones, bunny-like, but her outfit matched the other women workers’. It was a black contracted skirt paired with a white blouse.
It was still the Lu Daiyu they knew. Those slightly big round eyes were something Lin Diyu could not forget, especially how accomodating her presence was.
“Ms. Lu, isn’t it?” Lin Diyu smiled amicably at this young lady. Honestly, when he fought her in the arena, she was quite capable herself, despite her cultivation only reaching the 2nd Stage of the God King Realm.
Lu Daiyu smiled back and replied, “Yes, Mr. Cao. How do you like me to assist you?”
As a former crown prince, Lin Diyu had dealings with others like this, even more so since most were perilous and sensitive deals. While his master had yet to wake up, it was only right for him, as the senior brother of the two ten-year-olds, to stand up as the representative of the group..
“You really work in all kinds of places, Ms. Lu,” Lin Diyu said. “It’s quite admirable. Anyhow, I would like to ask Ms. Lu if there are still available tables for us to sit on.” He then stared at the two little kids, then at his master, and then back at the woman. “I think we’re going to need a table, a large one at that.”
Seeing how Lin Diyu scratched his nose in embarrassment, Lu Daiyu just chuckled. If she were to choose between this Cao Nima and Cao Xiaoma, she would definitely choose the latter. After all, Lin Diyu was more amiable than his master, who always thought gingerly of the things around him.
“Right away, Mr. Cao. If you want someone to talk to, you can actually call me. Perhaps, tonight?” Lu Daiyu winked at the other party.
Lin Diyu’s face turned red as he shied away. Seeing this flirtatious exchange between the two, Feng Huang was immediately dissatisfied and interrupted, “Just get us a table, Ms. Big Boobies!”
Lu Daiyu was stunned but later ignored the little girl’s remark and just smiled dotingly at the latter. Apparently, she could tell that this little girl admired her senior brother very much.
She just really couldn’t believe that Cao Nima was younger than Cao Xiaoma. If she had vowed to kill herself by pledging to the heavens that Cao Nima was really an old monster, she would’ve already died long ago. It was also a baffling matter for a 15-year-old teenager to accept a disciple two years older than him. Moreover, given that their surnames were of the same origin, they could really be brothers, but it just happened to turn out that Cao Nima was just stronger.
Or were they?
Ignoring these wandering thoughts, she led them to a slightly larger table. Sizing this up, Lin Diyu shook his head at Lu Daiyu and said, “This won’t be enough. You see, we will order a lot from your restaurant. We would need space for all the food we will order from you.”
Greedily, Long Guang stared at the other diners with his mouth salivating. “Big bwader, Long Guang want eat…”
Feng Huang was also struck dumb by the aroma drilling into her nose. Subconsciously, she also drooled and forgot about her dissatisfaction with Lu Daiyu earlier. On the one hand, Yang Lujia opened his eyes slightly and found that their food was still not served, so he slept some more.
Lin Diyu helplessly smiled at the actions of the other three. He then grabbed Feng Huang and let her sit on his arm while Long Guang was still on his shoulders.
Following Lu Daiyu, they arrived at another larger table. In fact, this was already the largest of all that they saw. This was on the highest floor of the restaurant. It meant that only distinguished guests and customers could enter here. Obviously, they were treated as such as Lin Diyu and Yang Lujia were hailed as the top stars during the elimination round.
Sooner or later, they would bring pride to Guile City. Besides, their strength could easily raze this restaurant to the ground. Thus, the restaurant owner should be more careful about how they handle people like them.
“Would this be okay?” Lu Daiyu felt like this group was beyond hope. At first, she felt wary and vigilant, but when she saw the innocent expressions of the little boy on Lin Diyu’s shoulders, she couldn’t help but lower her guard.
“Yes, yes,” Lin Diyu immediately replied. “Thank you for your hard work, Ms. Lu.” He cupped his hands at the latter and slightly bowed.
Lu Daiyu felt confident all of a sudden. It was a large boost to her confidence to have the second strongest amongst her peers be respectful towards her. Noticing that every person had already sat down, except for the other who was still sleeping, she asked, “What would you like to eat? We have several kinds of food here, two of which are classified into two major categories: meaty and herby.”
When she mentioned this, Yang Lujia’s eyes opened. His mouth slightly twitched when he heard the names of the two categories. Whoever named those had the most terrible sense of naming. Sitting beside his first disciple, Lin Diyu, he glanced at Lu Daiyu and said, “Serve everything you can serve. I want to eat them all.”
“Yes! Yes!” Long Guang seconded while Feng Huang remained in a daze, still finding herself in ecstasy caused by the aroma of what others were eating.
Lu Daiyu was speechless. No wonder these gluttons told her to give them a large table. Despite that, however, she still complied with their wishes. Moreover, they were given discounts as Lin Diyu and Yang Lujia were, again, the stars of the elimination round. It would be better for the restaurant to give them the best accommodation to curry favor.
A moment later, the group was surprised that the restaurant was very efficient in serving its customers. Yang Lujia himself was a bit taken aback. If this was on Earth, the amount of food served on a large table would take at least an hour or two to be finished, even if several chefs were working on them simultaneously.
“Ah, wait…” Lin Diyu said as he called on one of the waiters who served them food.
“Yes, what can I help the guest with?” The man drew a smile on his face.
Lin Diyu gulped as his nose was continuously tortured by the fragrant aroma of the dishes. Looking at his salivating companions, including Yang Lujia himself, then at the dishes, he asked, “Do you have sauce or ketchup?”
The waiter, “…”
Then, out of nowhere, a brown-furred dog appeared in midair and sat down beside Yang Lujia obediently while its eyes were sparkling with delight.
The waiter, “…”
