Douluo: Twin Stars: The Descend of the Gods

After instructing the staff to tidy up the restaurant, Shen Qinhui excitedly strode towards Ling Lu. When he reached her, he stretched out his hand and made a handshake gesture:

"Hello, brother, nice to meet you. My name is Shen Qinhui, and I'm the owner of this store."

"Hello, my name is Linglu." Linglu also extended her hand and shook hands with him out of politeness.

Shen Qinhui's smile widened: "It turned out to be Brother Ling, thank you for driving them away, this really helped me a lot!"

As he spoke, he pulled Linglu to a ready seat and said, "Come and sit down. No matter what you order today, I'll give you a free seat."

"Ah?" Ling Lu was a little confused, wondering if the boss was a little too enthusiastic. But despite this, she still politely refused:

"Thank you for your kindness, but no thanks. After all, they provoked me first, and I was just fighting back."

Shen Qinhui didn't care when he heard that. He pushed Linglu to her seat and said, "Even if that's the case, it's a fact that you drove them away. And that little girl comes to my store to cause trouble almost every day, and every time I lose a large number of customers."

Ling Lu was a little confused: "Did she only mess up your store? Or did she do the same to other stores?"

"Uh..." Shen Qinhui was a little speechless for a moment, but he continued to answer: "She also made trouble in other stores, but she made the most trouble in my store."

……

Linglu chatted with him for a while, and when she was about to leave, Shen Qinhui stopped her and said that he must treat her to a meal to express his gratitude.

Ling Lu naturally declined, after all, she was just solving her own problems and didn't specifically help him. In the end, Shen Qinhui suggested that they both take a step back and just buy her a portion of his signature chicken soup.

Seeing this, Ling Lu had no choice but to agree. Since the other party had already said so, it would be impolite for her to refuse.

Shen Qinhui went to the kitchen and said he would cook chicken soup himself. Linglu sat at her seat and waited. She turned around and looked around. She was surprised to find that the restaurant had been completely cleaned up after just a short chat.

All the damaged tables and chairs were replaced with new ones from the warehouse, and even the food spilled on the ground was completely cleaned up.

At this time, the waiter came to her with a tray of dishes and said, "Miss, due to our restaurant's fault, we brought you an unpleasant dining experience, so we will re-serve the dishes you ordered as compensation."

As he spoke, the waiter brought the five dishes that Ling Lu had ordered to the table, then bowed and left with the tray.

Linglu felt helpless about this. Since he said so, she seemed to have no reason to refuse.

So she had to put her mind at ease, took a pair of chopsticks from the cutlery box next to her, and began to eat leisurely.

During this time, guests came to the restaurant one after another, and the sound of various conversations and laughter made the restaurant lively again.

The current state of the store makes it hard to imagine that it was in a mess due to a battle not long ago.

After more than half an hour, a voice from Shen Qinhui suddenly came from in front of Linglu:

"Hey, chicken soup is here~"

Linglu looked up and saw Shen Qinhui wearing a pair of gloves and walking towards her with a bowl of steaming chicken soup.

The chicken soup has a rich flavor, and you can feel how delicious it tastes just by smelling it.

Shen Qinhui walked to Linglu's table and brought the chicken soup to the table: "Come on, drink it quickly, I made it myself. In this hot and dry summer, drinking chicken soup is a good thing."

After hearing what he said, Ling Lu felt that his words were a bit strange, but she didn't say anything.

She didn't hesitate and picked up the spoon in the bowl and put a spoonful of chicken soup with chicken into her mouth.

As soon as she put it in her mouth, she could feel the warm soup sliding across the tip of her tongue and flowing into her throat, as if a warm current was flowing through her body.

Then, the tenderness of the chicken and the richness of the soup blended in your mouth, and every strand of meat fiber showed its elasticity and deliciousness just right.

Although the taste of this bowl of soup is not ostentatious, it conveys a deep sense of satisfaction in every bite, making people feel warm in their hearts while savoring it.

After tasting the chicken soup, Linglu suddenly understood why it was worth a gold soul coin.

She looked at Shen Qinhui next to her and couldn't help asking, "What on earth do you use to make this chicken soup?"

Shen Qinhui smiled mysteriously: "I can't tell you, I can't tell you, this is the exclusive secret recipe of my store."

After hearing this, Linglu didn't ask any more questions and continued to taste the chicken soup. Shen Qinhui sat down next to her and started chatting with her.

"Brother, you are not from Notting City, right? Where are you going next?"

After hearing what he said, Ling Lu did not answer directly, but asked: "Can you change your name?"

After all, she was really not used to someone calling her brother, brother.

"Uh..." Shen Qinhui choked: "Don't I think calling you brother will make us closer? Since you don't like it... then why not call you girl?"

"That's fine." Ling Lu said, and then answered his question: "I am indeed not from Notting City. I am just staying here temporarily. If nothing unexpected happens, I will go to Tiandou City later."

After all, Lingyao will also go there, Linglu thought to herself.

"Tiandou City..." Shen Qinhui sighed, not knowing what he was thinking. But he didn't pause for a few seconds and quickly said, "To go to Tiandou City, that means you have to go east. In that case... then I recommend you to go to a place."

"Where?" Linglu asked subconsciously.

Shen Qinhui shook his head. "I won't tell you the name directly. Just remember, if you go east in this direction, you will come across a village. And that village, if you ignore the first word, is called 'Smart Village', a village full of wisdom."

"Uh." Ling Lu was speechless after hearing what he said. What kind of village is that? Why is it so mysterious that even the name cannot be said directly?

"Okay, I'll go." Linglu accepted Shen Qinhui's recommendation and decided to go there as the next stop. It was on the way anyway and would not waste her time.

Although she could directly use the system's map function to check the place, she did not do so. After all, that would lose the sense of anticipation.

Afterwards, Linglu drank chicken soup while chatting with Shen Qinhui, and time passed quietly until dusk gradually arrived.

Linglu came to the door, looked at the vast sky for a while, then walked out of the restaurant and embarked on her journey again.
