Chapter 43
Now Lin Yu is level 39 and about to be level 40.
Dugu Yan is also level 29 and about to be level 30.
So they won't stay in Xingluo City for long; they will just go in for a stroll and then go to the Star Dou Great Forest.
A few hours later, Lin Shuai drove the carriage and brought Lin Yu and the three into Xingluo City.
At this time, it was already 7:00 PM.
They didn't need to stay in hotels when they went out; staying in the Spirit Branch Hall was enough. After entering the city, Lin Yu and the others headed to the Spirit Sacred Hall in Xingluo City to stay temporarily.
After the rooms were arranged.
They left the Sacred Hall at 8:00, intending to find a place to have dinner, go stroll around the busiest streets later, eat some local snacks, and then leave Xingluo City the next day.
The three walked on the streets of Xingluo City. Dugu Yan saw a storefront and her eyes suddenly lit up: "Eh eh, Lin Yu, Renxue, look quickly, it's the Xuena Cake Shop!"
"Xuena? Is it delicious?"
Dugu Yan nodded crazily: "Mm-hmm! I've eaten it once before, it's very famous in Xingluo City!"
"Then let's taste it."
"Let's go!"
The three walked toward the Xuena Cake Shop, and a pungent fragrance came over.
It seemed a bit special.
"It is quite fragrant!" Qian Renxue started to look forward to it a little.
This business was clearly also very good; it was full of people inside, so Lin Yu and the three could only sit at a dining table set up outside the shop.
A waiter walked over immediately, with a professional fake smile: "Three respected guests, what would you like to order?"
"Three signature Xuena desserts, three signature Xuena drinks." Lin Yu said.
"Okay, your total consumption here is 3 silver spirit coins."
Lin Yu was stunned: "How much?"
The waiter still smiled: "3 silver spirit coins."
"Good heavens, three cakes and desserts, three drinks, and it cost 3 silver spirit coins. Is the consumption of this shop too high? Is money so easy to earn?" Lin Yu muttered in his heart.
The spirit coins of this world: 1 gold coin equals 10 silver spirit coins, 10 silver spirit coins equals 1000 copper spirit coins.
And one gold spirit coin is enough for an ordinary family of three to spend for several months, which shows how high the consumption of this shop is. (Although the original work clearly wrote that 1 gold spirit coin equals 100 copper spirit coins, if you think about it carefully, it's too unreasonable.)
"Fine." Lin Yu paid decisively.
Instead, he had plenty of money; wealth was already an external object to him.
The three sat at the dining table outside the shop just like that, eating desserts, drinking beverages, chatting, and enjoying a moment of leisure.
"Mm! The taste is indeed not bad, let's pack some to eat on the road tomorrow later." Qian Renxue tasted it carefully and said with great satisfaction.
"Mm, okay!"
Lin Yu responded, and suddenly saw a sneaky little girl walking over quickly not far ahead.
The little girl was 8 years old, wearing a set of black tight leather clothes, her black, soft long hair draped over her shoulders. She had a pair of beautiful big eyes and looked very cute.
But there was a kind of coldness in her eyes.
And this little girl was Zhu Zhuqing of the Nether Spirit Cat family.
Although everyone in this world is precocious and develops faster, after all, she was only eight years old, and Zhu Zhuqing had just entered the developmental stage, so her figure was currently very mediocre.
It didn't immediately remind Lin Yu of the extremely hot and sexy Zhu Zhuqing in his impression.
But Zhu Zhuqing's sneaky appearance couldn't help but make Lin Yu pay a few more moments of attention.
She came to the table next to Lin Yu's, hid behind a pillar, and stared straight ahead.
Lin Yu looked in the direction of Zhu Zhuqing's gaze and found that she was staring at a golden-haired boy. This boy was dressed in luxury, clearly not from an ordinary family, and the boy was also walking sneakily toward the entrance of a hotel.
At this time, two women with charming looks and very sexy clothes walked out of the hotel.
The boy immediately revealed a lecherous and evil face, rubbed the waists of the two sexy women, and stepped into the hotel.
"Ho, this is interesting, so it's them." A meaningful smile appeared on the corner of Lin Yu's mouth.
If he couldn't recognize the undeveloped Zhu Zhuqing at first glance, then the golden-haired boy entering the hotel, Lin Yu guessed who it was at a glance.
Golden hair, luxury, hugging two dusty women into the hotel; this scene was exactly the same as the scene in the original work!
So that golden-haired boy was Dai Mubai, the third prince of the Xingluo Empire!
Then, the little girl hiding behind the pillar was Zhu Zhuqing.
"Hehe, if I remember correctly, this Dai Mubai is only 11 years old now, right? Getting horny so early, unable to control his lower body, going out to steal food and find girls to open a room?"
"And he has to have two at once, one isn't enough, right? Playing really fancy!" Lin Yu mocked in his heart.
He had long known that this Dai Mubai was a playboy, extremely scummy.
Before going to Shrek Academy, this Dai Mubai already had the name of a playboy.
Living a dissolute life in Xingluo City, later because he couldn't bear the competition pressure of the family and was always beaten by his brother Dai Weisi, he abandoned Zhu Zhuqing and fled Xingluo City alone, going to Shrek Academy.
After arriving at Shrek Academy, he often went to nightclubs with Ma Hongjun, that loser, to find women to vent, living a carefree life, completely disregarding the predicament Zhu Zhuqing would face after he fled and was left alone in Xingluo City.
Lin Yu had no good feelings for this kind of person at all, just a bit surprised that looking at Dai Mubai's familiar way just now, it was clear he had started being lecherous very early.
Lin Yu suddenly had a thought and said to Zhu Zhuqing hiding behind the pillar: "Hey, little girl in front, what are you doing?"
Zhu Zhuqing turned her head and looked at Lin Yu, Qian Renxue, and Dugu Yan at the table behind her. She didn't speak and looked toward the hotel again.
But her eyes were already moist, her expression aggrieved, unwilling, angry, and also carrying a kind of complex emotion; in this complex emotion, there was hope and a sense of escapism that she was unwilling to accept.
She suddenly turned around again and asked Lin Yu and the three: "You say, a boy takes two women to a hotel, what... what will they do inside..."
"Hehe, what do you think? What else can a boy take a girl to a place like a hotel for?" Lin Yu heard this and shook his head with a smile. He continued: "I think if you are asking this question, you already have the answer in your heart, right?"
Zhu Zhuqing hesitated for a moment and gathered her courage to ask: "I... I can ask you a question?"
She was too difficult.
Born in a cruel family like the Nether Spirit Cat, which was cold and had almost no family affection, she also had no friends, and there was simply no one she could speak her heart to, nor could she tell the ugly things to people she knew.
So, she could only bear everything by herself, with no one to confide in.
At this moment, the strangers who suddenly started talking to her became the objects she could confide in.
Lin Yu replied: "Ask."
Zhu Zhuqing gathered her courage and asked: "I... I have a friend..."
