Chapter 78 Check in?!

Lu Mingfei originally wanted Xia Mi to recommend a restaurant, but Xia Mi refused, saying that since his senior brother was treating them, they should eat at the restaurant that he wanted to eat at. So Lu Mingfei had to choose by himself.

But it's not difficult to judge whether a restaurant is good or not, especially at lunchtime like now.

The store that does good business must have good food.

"but……"

Lu Mingfei looked at the huge crowd in front of him and felt a little tingling on his scalp.

Although it’s easy to tell which stores are doing the most business at a glance, aren’t there too many people on this street?

There were employees from a nearby supermarket, dirty workers, and students who had just finished class.

With so many customers, it’s no wonder that this street is full of restaurants.

Lu Mingfei looked around and chose a Cantonese-style pork trotter rice restaurant with a medium number of people and walked in.

Although the business is not as prosperous as the first few, there is still a certain flow of customers, which means the taste must be pretty good.

The most important thing is that Lu Mingfei feels that something like pork trotter rice has a relatively even upper and lower limit. It won’t be particularly delicious, but it won’t be too bad either.

As soon as he sat down at the door, Xia Mi said angrily: "How can you bring a girl to eat pig's trotter rice when you dine with her for the first time? Senior brother, you have lost points for this!"

Lu Mingfei sat down opposite Xia Mi.

"Then why didn't you tell me what you wanted to eat when I asked you just now?"

"I just wanted to see if you can be in tune with me. It seems that Senior Brother Lu doesn't know me well enough, and you are one step further away from winning over Junior Sister."

Looking at Xia Mi's puffy face, Lu Mingfei sometimes found it really difficult to connect this energetic and vibrant girl in front of him with the decisive and murderous Dragon King in the imperial capital subway.

Which one is she? Which one is not her?

Or, in fact, everyone is her?

If you think about it, it’s the same with people. They play different roles and show different personalities in different scenarios.

Take the senior brother with facial paralysis for example. In his home, he is a caring and good son who does not need anyone to worry about him; in school, he is always the best senior; but when he is with his father, he will instantly become the son who still needs a hug.

I guess it's the same for Xia Mi.

As long as she doesn't enter the Nibelungen, she will always be that cute and lovely school girl.

"Why do humans and dragons have to fight to the death?"

Unintentionally, Lu Mingfei expressed his feelings.

Xia Mi, who was sitting opposite, was stunned.

"Brother, do you want to know the reason?" Xia Mi turned around with her chin supported by her hand, revealing a small canine tooth from the corner of her smiling mouth.

As she spoke, the natural innocence in Xia Mi's eyes suddenly disappeared, and was replaced by a hint of evil in her smile, full of strange temptation.

Even Lu Mingfei was stunned for a moment.

“I don’t want to.” Lu Mingfei avoided Xia Mi’s eyes and immediately denied it.

"A duplicitous man."

Xia Mi stuck out her tongue and gently drew circles on the table with her fingers.

"The reasons behind this are complex, but simple at the same time. If I were to trace them back, I would not be able to finish the story in one go. It would take three days and three nights."

“That doesn’t mean nothing was said.”

"Brother, if you really want to know, we can get a room and I'll tell you stories for three days and three nights by your pillow, just like Scheherazade told the king stories every night in One Thousand and One Nights."

Open house?!

Lu Mingfei didn't expect Xia Mi to say such words without any warning. In an instant, it felt like there was a small claw scratching near his heart, making him feel itchy, and even his heart beat faster.

Fortunately, Lu Mingfei was only stunned for a moment before he came to his senses.

The strange feeling just now disappeared in an instant like a gust of wind.

I don't know if it was because Xia Mi's voice was not loud and the restaurant was very noisy, so no one heard their conversation. Otherwise, based on that sentence just now, Lu Mingfei could be invited to have coffee.

Although he knew that the little female dragon Xia Mi was at least several thousand years old, others did not know that.

"Pfft, pfft, don't make such a joke, I can't afford it, brother."

"Oh, it turns out that the seduction trick doesn't work. I need to learn more." Xia Mi showed a look of regret on her face.

“It’s normal that it doesn’t work.”

Lu Mingfei glanced at Xia Mi's chest calmly.

Xia Mi's eyes suddenly showed a fierce light.

"I'm still growing, growing, do you understand? I'm only 14 years old this year, and when I'm 18, I'll be Asahina Mikuru!"

Xia Mi shouted unconvinced.

It's a pity that my senior brother has seen you when you were 18. Even at the age of 18, you can't be Asahina Mikuru, or even Suzumiya Haruhi, at most you can only be Nagato Yuki.

Lu Mingfei said silently in his heart.

The meal was served quickly, and the two began to eat. Although Xia Mi said that she didn't want to eat the pig's trotter rice, her body was very honest.

But she is a girl after all, so her eating manner is relatively polite and restrained, unlike Finkel who eats lavishly as if no one is around.

Especially when she shows her fangs and bites a duck leg, she has a natural cuteness that is unique to young girls.

Lu Mingfei was afraid that she would choke, so he quickly got her another bowl of soup.

The meal time slowly passed, but the flow of people in the store did not decrease much, and it was still noisy.

Seeing that both of them had almost finished eating, Lu Mingfei paid the bill, put on Xia Mi's backpack, and prepared to find a quiet place to get down to business today.

Although almost no one in the store would notice their conversation, what if the walls had ears?

For such a secret topic, it would be better to find a place where there is no one around.

Fortunately, there is not much else in the old city, but there are a lot of quiet and open places like this. Xia Mi, who is very familiar with this area, brought Lu Mingfei to an old fitness equipment square, and the two sat under an old sycamore tree.

"Don't worry, senior brother. There are only old men and women living around here. In the summer, the sun is strong, so they will not come out until the afternoon. Generally, no one will come at this time."

Xia Mi patted her chest confidently, with an expression that said "Junior sister knows everything".

"So, Senior Brother, why did you call me so anxiously this morning? What do you want to talk to me about?"

As soon as the words fell, the evil intent that could bewitch people's minds reappeared from the corners of Xia Mi's beautiful eyes and eyebrows.

It seems like she has two faces, one soft and cute, and one evil and charming, and she can switch between the two faces seamlessly.

"Asking knowingly."

Lu Mingfei shrugged and took out his cell phone from his pocket. The moment he took out the phone, the soft and cute Xia Mi returned.

"It's the latest Nokia N73! It was just released a few days ago, right? Brother, you are really rich! I also want a white one, but it costs more than 4000 yuan, so I can't afford it."

"I didn't buy it, someone gave it to me."

"Who sent it?" Xia Mi's eyes turned, and she moved closer to sit next to Lu Mingfei, looking from bottom to top, "Liu Miaomiao? That's great, I also want to find a rich boyfriend to support me."

"Pah, stop making me sound like a gigolo, okay? And it wasn't given by her."

"Who is that?"

"Please don't change the subject."

As if Lu Mingfei had seen through her little thoughts, Xia Mi stuck out her tongue mischievously.

Lu Mingfei opened the address book and turned the phone screen towards Xia Mi.

"This is a phone someone gave me, and I know for sure I don't have your phone number saved."

"What I want to know is, will your number be in my new phone?"
