Chapter 199 Conflict
The next day, after finishing breakfast, Huangfu Ruiling took Ye Lengan out to play. Both of them were very low-key, they didn't take anyone with them, they just traveled like ordinary couples.
However, the two still wore masks. Although I am not afraid of being recognized by others, it is also to avoid trouble.
In the hidden world, there are many people who are unwilling to show their true colors, so Huangfu Ruiling and Ye Leng'an are not special. However, even though he was wearing a mask, the exposed half of his face and his whole body temperament were enough for people to ignore. Just simply walking down the street is enough to attract the attention of others.
However, few people dare to stare at them. People in the hidden world are much more sensitive than those in the ordinary world. Many strong people don't like others to stare at them. In order not to offend others, no one dared to stare at others at will.
Ye Leng'an dragged Huangfu Ruiling through the street. Although she had already visited it once yesterday, but coming with Huangfu Ruiling today is another brand new experience.
Huangfu Ruiling let Ye Leng'an pull him, his eyes were full of doting, as if in his eyes, there was only this one person, and no one else could get into his eyes.
Such focused and passionate love made the girls around her feel envious and jealous. As long as it is a girl, there is no one who does not want such a strong love. Especially for a man who looks so powerful and outstanding, you are the only one in his eyes, how can this make people not be tempted!
However, although the heart is moved, no one dares to do anything. Because this couple is not easy to mess with at first glance.
After playing all morning, Huangfu Ruiling and Ye Leng'an did not go back to the Huangfu family either. Their plan was to wait until the evening after participating in the auction before going back to the Huangfu family.
So, at noon, the two came to a restaurant, planning to settle their lunch.
Looking at the antique restaurant in front of him, Ye Leng'an couldn't help sighing, "Everything here is really completely different from the ordinary world! If not for the people here wearing modern clothes, I really think I have traveled to ancient times!"
It can be said that if those TV dramas and movies can be shot here, the effect must be top-notch. Of course, this is just a random thought, and it is impossible to realize. Moreover, the hidden world cannot be entered at will.
"The food in this restaurant is good." Huangfu Ruiling explained, "Especially the meat of spirit beasts, this restaurant has the most special features."
In the hidden world, many deep mountains and wild forests will sell you spirit beasts. There are even some people who keep spirit beasts as pets.
However, unlike the cultivation world, the spirit beasts here are not very powerful. Therefore, no one recovers spirit beasts to assist in combat, at most they just keep them as pets.
"Then I really want to have a good taste." Ye Leng'an nodded, "I just don't know whether it's the chefs here or the chefs of the Huangfu family who make the delicious food."
During the few days in the Huangfu family, she had already tasted the meat of spirit beasts. Unlike ordinary poultry, spirit beasts still have a faint aura. Of course, if done poorly, it can be fishy. However, the cooks of the Huangfu family did a good job, and they couldn't taste any fishy smell at all, but instead had a faint fragrance.
"Each has its own characteristics!" Huangfu Ruiling said with a smile, "You'll know when you taste it."
The two walked into the restaurant.
It is lunch time now, so there are still many people in the restaurant. However, luckily, they happened to reach the last private room.
However, when the clerk was about to take them to the private room, a crisp voice suddenly came from behind.
"Manager, give me a private room."
After hearing such a request, the store manager looked at the face of the visitor with a trace of apology, "Miss Ye, all the private rooms in the store are already occupied. Sorry, we are in the lobby, why don't I find you a quieter table!"
Hearing the words from behind, Ye Leng'an couldn't help but smile with interest.
Unexpectedly, such a thing as fate is really amazing! Yesterday, she met Yewan's friend Zhong Yujiarui, and today she met Yewan during lunch. It's really a sinful fate!
Thinking of this, Ye Leng'an couldn't help stretching out his finger, and scratched Huangfu Ruiling's palm.
Feeling the strangeness coming from the palm of his hand, Huangfu Ruiling's eyes flashed with doubt, and he looked at Ye Leng'an beside him, "What's wrong?"
Obviously, after hearing the voice behind him, he didn't feel anything, and he couldn't even recognize who it was. Perhaps it should be said that Ye Wan didn't leave any traces in his heart. Therefore, even if he heard the voice of night night, he did not recognize it at all.
Ye Leng'an pursed his lips and smiled, and after looking in Yewan's direction, he approached Huangfu Ruiling and said in a low voice, "I didn't expect it to be such a coincidence that I met Yewan here! Have you forgotten?"
"For some unimportant people, I won't remember their looks." Huangfu Ruiling responded flatly, "It's not surprising to meet here. This restaurant is quite famous in the hidden world. Many people like to eat here, so it's normal to meet by chance."
Ye Leng'an nodded, then took Huangfu Ruiling's arm, and was about to continue walking.
After hearing what the store manager said, Yewan couldn't help frowning, "Didn't I get someone to call and ask you to reserve a private room for me?"
She felt very dissatisfied with this. Normally, she is considered a regular customer of this store. Now she came here with a group of friends, and what the store manager said was like a slap in the face to her.
Suddenly, Yewan's face darkened.
Facing Yewan's ugly face, the store manager's expression remained unchanged, "Miss Ye, your people did call, but they didn't say the time, nor did they say what kind of private room they want. When I asked, your side even said that they were not sure. Under such circumstances, we naturally have to give the private room to other customers who need it first."
When she thought of the so-called seat reservation call she received, she couldn't help but get angry.
The people over there, relying on the fact that they are members of the Ye family, directly dumped them and asked them to reserve a private room in the store. Moreover, they said that they did not know the time, as long as they kept it. Such a natural attitude made her so angry that she was speechless.
Then, before she could ask a few more questions, the person over there hung up the phone directly.
Because of this, she didn't leave a private room.
"You—" After hearing what the store manager said, Yewan's face became even more ugly, and he even asked a little bit, "Is this how you do business? Since I have already called, you must make room for me now, or I won't just let it go."
"I'm sorry." The store manager's attitude was neither humble nor overbearing, "Miss Ye, we just booked the last private room. So, there are really no vacant private rooms. If you need it, we can set aside a space for you in the lobby, and we can definitely guarantee that you can talk quietly."
This is the maximum she can do now. Moreover, this is still for Ye family's face. Otherwise, there would be no such operation at all.
Although he was very unhappy with the Ye family's so-called reservation attitude, but now that Ye Wan has come to the door in person, there is no need to fight against the Ye family over such a trivial matter.
"Who are you looking down on!" For such a so-called solution, the late night didn't appreciate it at all, "Are you asking me to bring a group of my friends and sit in the hall?"
The store manager looked distressed, and continued to speak, "Miss Ye, this is the only solution we can provide now. Otherwise, I might have to ask you to wait."
Wait until the people in any private room finish eating, then there will be a vacant private room coming out.
Ye Wanwan's eyes were full of anger, but she hadn't said anything yet when one of her friends pulled her sleeves, "Wanwan, didn't the store manager tell you that just now? The private room was booked just now. Do you think it was the two people in front who booked it?"
As soon as these words came out, everyone's eyes immediately focused on Huangfu Ruiling and Ye Leng'an.
Yewan also noticed a pair of Bi people not far away at this time.
Seeing the couple in front of her, Yewan's eyes flashed with jealousy, and then she stepped forward, with a little arrogance, but still with a little respect, and said, "Which family do you two belong to?"
Such a temperament does not look like an ordinary person. Therefore, when she didn't figure out the identities of the two people opposite, she still didn't put on airs.
"Oh, what family?" Ye Leng'an smiled, and then said, "We have just arrived in the hidden world, and we don't know much about the things here."
As soon as she heard that the other party had just arrived in the hidden world, Yewan's tone changed immediately, and she said directly, "You are just two people, you don't need a private room at all, give us that private room!"
The natural tone didn't seem to be asking someone to give her the private room at all, but it seemed to be ordering the other party to give her the private room.
"Oh," Ye Leng'an nodded, and then said, "But, I don't want to give in!"
Night night, when I thought the other party would be acquainted, after hearing such an answer, my face suddenly darkened, "Do you know what you are talking about? You have just come to the hidden world, don't you know, it's best not to offend people easily?"
"I didn't offend anyone!" Ye Leng'an always had a light smile on his face, "I didn't take your private room away, but I just didn't want to give it up to you. Could it be that just because I didn't want to give it up to you, are you going to hate me? You're not so stingy, are you?"
What she said was so well-founded that Yewan could not refute it at all. She smiled angrily. She looked at Ye Leng'an and introduced herself, "I think, you probably don't know who I am! Let me introduce solemnly. I am Yewan, the eldest lady of the Ye family. The current head of the Ye family is my father."
"So you are so powerful!" Ye Leng'an had an expression of admiration, but suddenly changed the topic, and continued, "But, does all this have anything to do with me?"
The shop manager not far away, who witnessed everything, almost laughed out loud after hearing Ye Leng'an's words. At first, she thought that the other party would take the initiative to give up the private room after hearing Ye Wan's self-introduction. Unexpectedly, the other party actually made such a decision in the end.
She didn't say anything to stop Ye Wan's actions. Because, if the other party is really willing to give up, it is also a matter between them, and they, as shopkeepers, should not interfere. Of course, if Yewan insisted on taking away the other party's private room and causing trouble in the store, it would have something to do with them.
"So, you definitely want that private room, don't you?" Yewan said with a hint of threat in his tone, "There are so many people here, we really need a private room, can't you give it to us? Just consider it a good relationship!"
"No." Although Ye Leng'an had a smile on his face, his attitude was firm. "Everything comes first, first served. Since I came first and reserved this private room, I have the right to choose. Now my choice is, I want this private room."
"Very good." Hearing these words, Yewan narrowed his eyes slightly, with a dangerous light shining in his eyes, "I appreciate your personality, and I hope you can always maintain this personality and not be knocked down by reality."
"Thank you for your concern, I will." Ye Leng'an nodded solemnly as if he couldn't understand Ye Wan's sarcasm at all.
"Wanwan, what should we do now?" One of the girls came up, her name was Ye Min'er, she was a branch of the Ye family, and it took a lot of effort to be able to climb up to the night.
By virtue of her status, she is not qualified to go out for dinner with Yewan. It's just that because he climbed Ye Wan, he was able to barely regard himself as Ye Wan's friend, and followed Ye Wan out with the children of other families. It's just that I didn't expect that I would encounter such a thing just to have a meal.
Ye Wanwan was already full of anger, but now that Ye Min'er has no eyesight and comes up to ask things, her mood has become even worse. When talking to Ye Min'er, her tone is also full of impatience, "What are you asking! Don't you have eyes? Now people refuse to give up the private room, so what are you going to eat!"
Ye Min'er originally just wanted to ask a few questions, but now she was treated like this by Ye Wan, so she was naturally very wronged. But, she couldn't vent her anger towards Ye Leng'an, so she could only vent her anger towards Ye Leng'an.
"You are just two people, why do you have to have a private room?" Ye Min'er looked at Ye Leng'an and said directly, "Isn't everyone happy that you gave us the private room? Besides, do you know what kind of identity we are Wan Wan! There are many people outside who want to befriend her! Now you have this opportunity to give the private room to Wanwan, it is your honor."
Ye Wan didn't stop Ye Min'er from clamoring. It is also very good for her to say those things that are not convenient for her to say through Ye Min'er's mouth now. Even if it's bullying, it's Ye Min'er, not her.
Facing Ye Min'er's arrogance, Ye Leng'an's face remained unchanged, he smiled, and said, "So what? Even if we are just two people, as long as I want a private room, I will never let it out. If you want to be a dog's leg, that's your business. Not everyone is like you."
"Are you mocking me?" After hearing Ye Leng'an's words, Ye Min'er's face turned red, and her eyes almost burst into flames when she looked at Ye Leng'an, "Who do you think you are! You are just a person who just came to the hidden world. Do you know the rules here? What qualifications do you have to judge those of us who have a family as a backer."
"I don't judge any of your actions." Compared with Ye Miner's exasperation, Ye Leng'an seemed much calmer, "I just hope that you don't force your thoughts on others. I came first, so the private room is mine. I have the final say on whether to give up the private room. You don't need to make a decision for me here."
"you-"
Seeing Ye Leng'an's calm appearance, Ye Min'er felt that she was out of breath. She can bow her head and be humble in front of Yewan, but she can't tolerate a person who is nothing to talk about her behavior. Moreover, she has always felt that Ye Leng'an's current attitude is to look down on her.
Thinking of this, Ye Min'er couldn't control the fury in her heart, so she shot directly and attacked Ye Leng'an.
From her point of view, the two people in front of her just came to the hidden world, so their cultivation level must not be high. Today she had to teach them a lesson, so that they would know that if they were too arrogant in the hidden world, they would be punished.
The store manager not far away saw this situation, and was a little anxious, and immediately wanted to go out and find someone to come in and stop him. Not only because she wants to protect the safety of the customers, but more importantly, to keep the safety of the store.
After all, this is the Hidden World, which is different from fighting in the Mortal World. In the hidden world, if two people with self-cultivation really fight, it will definitely not be a good thing for their shop. At that time, I don't know who will pay for the loss! As the store manager, she must prevent such a thing from happening.
However, just as she lifted her foot, Yewan stopped her.
"Miss Ye, please move out of the way." Although the words were respectful, the store manager's tone was a bit rushed, "I must find someone to stop me now, and please Miss Ye not to stop me."
Of course, she is also cultivated. It's just that she wasn't sure if she could stop all of this, so she went to find someone. If Yewan really wants to stop her, then she's probably going to make a move.
"The store manager, why worry!" Yewan's tone was cool, "Min'er is very measured, and will not damage the things in your store. Moreover, I am here now, if there is any loss, I will definitely compensate it in full."
During the conversation, when Ye Wanwan looked at the store manager, there was oppression and threat in his eyes.
Under Yewan's staring eyes, the store manager finally had no choice but to stand still.
Not for anything else, even she didn't want to offend the Ye family. Moreover, now that it's in broad daylight and under the watchful eyes of everyone, Ye Min'er probably wouldn't dare to do anything to those two. After all, the name of the law enforcement team is not just for talking, if the two people's lives are really in danger, the law enforcement team will come to the door, even if it is the Ye family, they will definitely not be able to protect Ye Min'er.
So, as long as Ye Min'er is not a fool, she probably won't kill her. It's just that those two people are really going to suffer a lot.
Seeing the store manager's sensible actions, Yewan nodded in satisfaction, then looked in Ye Min'er's direction, intending to take a good look at the fate of that woman.
Until now, no one dared to save her face like this. Since the other party is so ignorant, there must be a price to pay.
Huangfu Ruiling's eyes flashed with murderous intent, and he looked at Ye Min'er with no extra emotion, just like looking at an ant looking for death. He raised his hand slightly, but before he could make any movement, he was grabbed by a slender catkin. Then, his hand came down.
Glancing at the calm Ye Lengan beside him, Huangfu Ruiling stopped his movements.
Just when everyone was watching that Ye Miner's attack was about to fall on Ye Leng'an, Ye Leng'an's mouth curled into a calm smile, and then he raised his hand.
The bracelet that was still on her hand turned into a sharp dagger in an instant. The dagger exuded a fierce light, and the blade carried a strong smell of blood, as if announcing its extraordinaryness to everyone.
"What a powerful spiritual weapon!" One of Yewan's friends couldn't help but exclaimed.
Everyone's eyes fell on the dagger in Ye Leng'an's hand. Just seeing it was enough to make people feel a little frightened. And the strong smell of blood undoubtedly shows that it has definitely seen blood, and there is a lot of it.
Ye Min'er didn't expect Yewan to have such a powerful spiritual weapon. When the dagger was pointed at her, she tried to dodge, but it was too late.
Ye Leng'an held the dagger, still smiling, but his hand moved very quickly, and the dagger directly stabbed Ye Min'er's throat.
