Chapter 41 Will Brother Yuanruo win?
Buddha Jumps Over the Wall is not a simple dish. Even if Baihualou makes thorough preparations in advance, it still takes some time to serve the dish.
Although Huo Yuanruo and his friends were not disturbed by any outsiders in their box, they could still hear the sounds of laughter and flirting outside. Even though Chu Jie didn't understand anything at such a young age, his face turned red after hearing those dirty words.
"Brother Yuanruo, let's go back. This place..." Why does it look so improper?
Huo Yuanruo was also very annoyed with this situation, but he endured it for the sake of eating Buddha Jumps Over the Wall. He casually comforted Chu Jie, "Hey, don't make a fuss. This restaurant is a mixed place with all kinds of people. Just don't listen. Come, have an apple."
Then he picked up a big red apple, wiped it on his clothes out of habit, and handed it over, "I just ate it. This apple is quite fresh. You can have a bite first."
Chu Jie looked at the apple that was almost as big as his face and muttered, "If I eat this apple, why would I want to eat Buddha Jumps Over the Wall?"
"You, you, too. Why do you have such a small appetite? A man should be able to eat. If you can't eat, how can you grow taller? If you can't eat, how can you gain strength? Look at me." Huo Yuanruo rolled up his sleeves to show Chu Jie the tendons on his arms. The powerful muscles made Chu Jie marvel. He felt that Huo Yuanruo could punch him away.
Seeing his eyes, Huo Yuanruo was so proud, "This is the result of eating more and practicing more. Of course, eating is only part of it, but practicing diligently is the most important thing."
"Then why don't I see you practicing? Sometimes you wake up later than me in the morning."
"What do you know? I had already finished my practice and went back to catch up on my sleep." He then looked outside the door and said, "The food is too slow, Goudan, go and hurry them up."
Goudan, who was outside the door, heard the shouting and hurriedly responded, trotting in, "Okay, okay, don't worry, young master, I've urged you, it will be ready soon, hehehe." Then he put the two small plates of snacks in his hand on the table, "This is also the signature dish of this building...the shop, would you like to try it, young master?"
When Huo Yuanruo heard it was a signature dish, he took a bite and his eyes lit up immediately. It was delicious. He took a piece and stuffed it into Chu Jie's mouth, saying incoherently, "Try it, it's delicious, it's worthy of being a signature dish."
Chu Jie's little mouth was stuffed full and he chewed slowly like a cute little squirrel. Actually, he felt it was okay, a little greasy, and slightly worse than the food in the palace.
Just as they were enjoying their meal, a voice that Chu Jie was very familiar with rang out from outside the door, "You are quite courageous. You even dared to visit a brothel. You have really learned a lot from this trip."
Chu Jie froze, no longer caring about why the emperor's uncle came. What did he just say? Brothel?
Huo Yuanruo frowned when he heard the voice, "What brothel?" Then he looked at Chu Jie, whose face was pale, "What are you doing? Is the person outside...looking for you?"
Seeing that Chu Jie didn't respond for a while, Huo Yuanruo went over and opened the door, "Who is making a noise outside my door? Are you itching for trouble?"
After the door opened, there were two strange men standing outside. Both of them were unfamiliar to Chu Jie. He was stunned at first, then he saw the jade ring that his uncle always kept on his hand, and knew that he was not mistaken. Was this... a disguise? He didn't know why they appeared in this way. Just hearing that this was a brothel, Chu Jie was already scared and at a loss. He actually entered a brothel...
Huo Yuanruo crossed his arms and looked at the two people outside with a ruffian look on his face, "Who are you? What are you doing outside my box? If you want to eat, go somewhere else. This is already taken."
"Eat, this little brother, I'm afraid you don't know where this is?" Chu Chenfeng looked leisurely, and glanced at Chu Jie who was hiding behind. He used a human skin mask, but his voice did not change. It was not surprising that Chu Jie could recognize him, and he didn't intend to hide it from him.
Goudan immediately stepped forward with a guilty conscience, "Who are you, you blind man? This box belongs to our young master, you guys should leave quickly and don’t make trouble here, otherwise..."
Before he finished speaking, Xing Yi, who had been silent all this time, took two steps forward at a speed that was difficult to distinguish with the naked eye and kicked the arrogant dog slave out.
With a howl of "Ouch", the dog fainted.
Huo Yuanruo ignored the fainted Goudan and was very interested in the man who made the move. "Brother, you are quite skilled. Want to compare?"
Xingyi did not respond, but took a few steps back to stand behind Chu Chenfeng. His meaning was very clear: he was unwilling to compete with him.
But who was Huo Yuanruo? He was just like his master. How could he not compete with such a good fighter? He didn't care what Xingyi thought. He picked up his long sword and rushed over.
In order to avoid disturbing the master's peace, Xingyi could only lead the people to the lobby downstairs. Suddenly, there was chaos downstairs, and shouts and cries for help were heard...
Chu Chenfeng ignored the two and went straight into the box. Chu Jie lowered his head guiltily and took a few steps back.
Chu Chenfeng sneered, "Come here, pour tea."
“...Yes.” Chu Jie walked over carefully, took a clean cup and poured a cup of hot tea for his uncle, “Uncle...”
Chu Chenfeng drank two sips expressionlessly, "You dare to come to the brothel. I learned a lot this time."
Chu Jie's body froze. "Uncle, I... I didn't know this was a brothel. I... we just came here to have a meal."
"Eating? Must we come to the brothel?"
Chu Jie was so anxious that his face turned red. "Really, we didn't know this was a brothel. We only heard that... the Buddha Jumps Over the Wall here is a specialty, so we wanted to try it."
"When did you become so interested in food?"
“No...no, it’s Brother Yuanruo who wants to eat.”
Chu Chenfeng snorted coldly, "You actually made some friends?"
Chu Jie straightened his chest and said, "Brother Yuanruo is a good man."
"How long have you only known him and you've already judged him as a good person? If you are so unguarded, you will suffer a great loss in the future."
Chu Jie lowered his head in disappointment, "My nephew didn't... But Brother Yuan Ruo is really a good person. My nephew didn't let his guard down against others..."
Chu Chenfeng didn't say anything else and drank his tea elegantly. Chu Jie stood aside. He had no choice, as the emperor's uncle didn't let him sit...
I don't know how much time had passed, but all the guests downstairs had run away, and all the girls in the building had hidden themselves away. Huo Yuanruo and Xingyi were still fighting each other.
Chu Jie said anxiously, "Uncle, that's Xingyi, right? Can you..."
Chu Chenfeng put down the cup, "Why? Are you concerned about your new friend?"
Chu Jie nodded.
"Heh, Xingyi takes good care of you on weekdays, but you're caring about others first."
Chu Jie felt a little guilty, "Xingyi is the best expert around you, how could he be in trouble?"
"That may not be the case." Chu Chenfeng showed a rare hint of interest, "Your friend is a good candidate."
Chu Jie was surprised and asked, "Uncle Emperor means that Brother Yuan Ruo will win?"
