Chapter 978: Chapter 978: Slapping Herself in the Face
Li Feng sneered and said to Zhao Xiaohui, "Not everyone is qualified to be in the same circle as me."
"And besides, stop playing those little tricks, don’t you find it boring?"
Li Feng glanced at Zhao Xiaohui, then lifted his leg and walked into the restaurant.
Zhao Xiaohui watched Li Feng’s back and thought his tone was really quite bold.
She wondered whether he genuinely looked down on others, or if he didn’t even know the other person, trying to cover up.
Hmph.
I’m curious to see how deep your waters run.
Directly coming to a window seat in the restaurant, Zhao Xiaohui called the server right over, and the server handed the menu to both of them.
Zhao Xiaohui directly ordered a few dishes in the Lansi Country language, then looked up at Li Feng who was flipping through the menu.
"The chef here is a Second Star chef from Midi, who is also the owner of this restaurant."
"To maintain the authentic flavors here, including this menu...!"
Before Zhao Xiaohui could finish, Li Feng looked up at the server and started ordering fluently in the Lansi Country language.
The server, also a beauty from Lansi Country, immediately started chatting upon hearing Li Feng’s accent, leaving Zhao Xiaohui unable to understand.
Her knowledge of the Lansi Country language was limited to a few familiar dishes, and she had worked hard to learn it just for appearances.
Initially, she wanted to use this to test Li Feng, but it backfired, leaving her face stinging from the slap.
After Li Feng finished ordering, he handed the menu back to the server and looked across at Zhao Xiaohui, "Hmm, you seemed to have more to say, go on."
Zhao Xiaohui felt a bit suffocated and awkward.
"It’s nothing, I just didn’t expect you to speak Lansi Country language."
"I can speak not only Lansi Country language but also English, German, Russian, and even Beihai Country language. I learned them naturally, having spent a long time abroad."
Zhao Xiaohui took a breath and looked at Li Feng, "Have you been to many countries?"
"Tourism?"
Li Feng smiled faintly, "No, it was mostly hustling to make money."
Zhao Xiaohui let out an ’Oh’ and looked at Li Feng, "Mr. Li, is your family in trade? I’m curious which multinational group it is."
"Are you trying to dig into my background?"
Zhao Xiaohui said, "Mr. Li, I’ve already brought you to Wanjin Grand Hotel and even arranged for you to stay here. Isn’t that enough to show my sincerity?"
"All of this is far from enough."
"But Mr. Li, understanding goes both ways. If you say nothing, how can I help introduce you? After all, not just anyone can meet the Heavenly Master."
"If you want to meet the Heavenly Master, it’s not impossible, but first, you need to explain what you do."
Li Feng looked at Zhao Xiaohui, who was losing her cool, with a slight smile.
"I seem to have told you before to bring the person behind you, your level isn’t high enough."
Zhao Xiaohui stared at Li Feng with annoyance, "How do you know my level isn’t high enough?"
"If you really had status, you wouldn’t be knocking on hotel room doors selling things, which only shows you’re at the bottom."
"And you probably haven’t been to such places many times. Although you act calm, your Lansi Country language is really poor, and the dishes you ordered aren’t very sophisticated."
"Obviously, you don’t come here often to eat."
Zhao Xiaohui glanced at Li Feng, feeling shocked.
In the Longevity Sect, she had a decent status, but at most, she was mid-level, or she wouldn’t have been subservient to that senior or gone door-to-door like Li Feng said, selling invitations.
As for this place, she had only been here once or twice before, and the first time was completely embarrassing because she couldn’t understand, so she specifically learned some Lansi Country language to upgrade her profile.
She intended to use this to test Li Feng, but instead, he exposed her own background.
Zhao Xiaohui’s face was a bit flushed with embarrassment, and it wasn’t the first time.
The other party always made her feel like she was the monkey in a circus.
This made her a bit ashamed and angry, with no place to vent.
Suddenly, a shadow jumped up from behind, "Sister Zhao, you’re here for dinner too, huh, it’s my first time seeing you dressed."
"Sister Zhao, you’re so beautiful, I feel like I’ve completely fallen in love with you."
Zhao Xiaohui looked at the man who came up beside her, leaning on the table, eyes squinting as he sized her up, not even bothering to hide his swallowing action.
"It’s you again."
"Yes, it’s me again, which means we’re meant to be, always bumping into each other."
Zhao Xiaohui rolled her eyes at him, "I’m already with someone, can’t you see?"
"With someone? Who?"
The man only then seemed to notice Li Feng, turning around to look at him, "Bro, you’re the one with an appointment with my Sister Zhao?"
"Can you come over there and chat with me for a bit?"
"Zhao Xiaoliang, are you done yet? I have serious matters now, please don’t disturb us, okay?"
Zhao Xiaohui snapped at Zhao Xiaoliang.
Zhao Xiaoliang gave an awkward smile seeing Zhao Xiaohui get angry, "Sister, don’t be mad, fine, I won’t disturb your meal, enjoy."
Saying this, Zhao Xiaoliang moved to the side and sat at a table next to them, but his gaze was still fixed on Li Feng.
Zhao Xiaohui was frustrated at the man’s behavior.
"Let’s just ignore him."
Li Feng looked at Zhao Xiaohui and smirked, "Do you know who he is?"
Zhao Xiaohui huffed, "Who else could he be, a new disciple, clingy like a band-aid, with supposedly some background?"
"Why do you ask about him?"
"Just thinking this boy seems quite fond of you."
"Many are fond of me, but I’m not fond of just anyone."
Zhao Xiaohui responded with a hint of arrogance.
Li Feng chuckled, realizing Zhao Xiaohui really didn’t know this boy’s identity, Zhao Xiaoliang, the only son of Zhao Zhongxin of Zhongxin Group.
But Zhao Zhongxin’s son had never shown himself publicly; it was said he was sent abroad since young, so very few people knew him, and hardly any photos were circulated.
Yet, Li Feng managed to find out some things.
The Xu Family’s three powerhouses: Lin Changsheng handles the connections, Zhao Zhongxin manages the finances, but unexpectedly, Zhao Zhongxin’s only son Zhao Xiaoliang was encountered here.
And it seems the other party had also hidden his identity, mixing in with the Longevity Sect.
Really ironic, Zhao Xiaohui guarding a golden goose while still trying to find another.
"Miss Zhao, ah, fancy meeting you. I wonder if Miss Zhao has time tonight, I’d like to discuss the previous matter with you by candlelight."
At this moment, another greasy middle-aged man with a chubby face walked over, his eyes shining as he looked at the dressed-up Zhao Xiaohui.
