Chapter 93: A Chance Encounter With Lu Ning
When Chen Yu woke up from the coma, she was back at the hotel at the foot of the mountain. She groggily got out of bed and opened the heavy floor-to-ceiling curtains of the hotel. It was already dark outside.
Stung by the bright neon lights on the street, she unconsciously squinted, turned around and found her bag on the sofa. She then fished out her phone inside to call her grandfather.
“Are you awake?” The place where Elder Wu was seemed to be a bit noisy, as there was a distinct murmur on the phone.
“Why is it suddenly dark?” Chen Yu hadn’t sobered up just yet.
“Did you become stupid from your sleep?” Elder Wu said in disgust, “Have you forgotten about the activation of the Soul Gathering Formation?”
“Oh, I remember.” Chen Yu asked again, “Where are you?”
“Seeing that you’re not waking up, I came out to eat. Do you want to come along? It’s at a barbecue stall three intersections ahead of the hotel entrance,” Elder Wu answered while eating skewers.”
“Forget it. By the time I get there, you’d be finished eating. I’ll find a place to eat some,” Chen Yu declined and moved to hang up the phone.
“Girl…”
“Hm?” Chen Yu heard Elder Wu call her, and put the phone back to her ear.
“When you activated the Soul Gathering Formation you consumed a bit too much spiritual power, do you feel anything wrong now?” Elder Wu asked tentatively.
“No, ah?” Chen Yu mobilized the spiritual power in her body. “I feel fine, and my spiritual power has almost recovered.”
“That’s good. I’ll hang up.” Elder Wu ended the call and decided not to tell Chen Yu what happened in the stone room for the time being.
The reason was simple. If Chen Yu remembered, then naturally he didn’t need to say anything. If Chen Yu didn’t, then it wasn’t the right time. Well, anyway, he did not want to see that silly girl seek her own death. As for Lou Ming, weren’t they already looking for spiritual artifacts for him? Elder Wu asked the boss for twenty skewers of barbecue without any pressure.
Chen Yu washed her face and changed clothes. She used her phone to find a more famous specialty restaurant nearby, intending to go out for dinner. After a day without food, she was now starving.
Restaurant businesses seemed to be particularly thriving. It was already past dinner time, but the restaurants were still full with 60-70% of the guests. It was clear to see that the online reviews of the delicious food there were true.
“Hello, Miss,” the waiter greeted enthusiastically.
“For one.”
“Is sitting inside alright with you? There is a table for two over there,” the waiter asked.
Chen Yu nodded indifferently and followed the waiter inside. Halfway there, the waiter nearly bumped into a guest coming down from the second floor. He was leading the way, so he politely turned to the side, so Chen Yu bumped into an acquaintance without warning.
“Shishi.” Lu Ning’s voice was of surprise.
“Lu Ning.” Chen Yu was also a little surprised.
Lu Ning looked at the waiter next to him and asked, “Are you here for dinner?”
“Yeah.” Chen Yu nodded.
“With friends?” Lu Ning asked.
“No, it’s just me,” Chen Yu replied.
“Then do you want to join me? I’ve reserved a private room upstairs,” Lu Ning warmly invited.
Just when Chen Yu hesitated to go up, a girl came running down the stairs and shouted when she saw Lu Ning’s back, “Brother Lu Ning, Auntie Lin said not to pick a fish too big. We wouldn’t be able to eat a fish too big anyway. Why are you here?”
Yan Xin looked at Chen Yu with a hellish expression, and her tone unconsciously rose a few octaves higher.
“Is it strange for me to appear here?” Chen Yu raised her eyebrows.
“…” The Profound Spirit Grand Competition was in two weeks, so it was really not strange for Chen Yu to appear there.
“Come along, it’s no fun to be alone,” Lu Ning continued to warmly invite.
“No way.” Without waiting for Chen Yu’s answer, Yan Xin excitedly objected beforehand.
“Xin’er?” Lu Ning looked at Yan Xin disapprovingly, seemingly feeling that her attitude was entirely rude.
Chen Yu originally did not want to go, but when she saw Yan Xin’s expression, her interest was pricked, and so she nodded and agreed, “Then I’ll trouble you.”
“It’s no trouble, no trouble.” Lu Ning then turned his head to the waiter at the side and said, “I’m from room 206 upstairs. Please pick a smaller fish and send it over after steaming.”
“Okay.” The waiter nodded and turned to leave.
“I’ll take you up,” Lu Ning said to Chen Yu with a smile.
Chen Yu nodded and followed behind Lu Ning towards the second floor. Yan Xin, who was behind him, couldn’t stop her, was so pissed she stomped her feet in place. Seeing Yan Xin seething like that, she found it somewhat funny, but when she walked into Room 206, she wasn’t amused anymore. She regretted it. Why did she have to cut her own nose to spite Yan Xin? The girl was absolutely bent on closing in on her, ah.
“Shishi, this is my mother.” Lu Ning introduced her to a middle-aged beautiful woman with a gentle temperament on the main seat, “Mom, this is my friend, Chen Yu. You can call her Shishi, Shi of Xishi.”
“Xishi? Sure enough, you look stunning.” Mrs. Lu looked at Chen Yu gently.
“Hello, auntie.” Chen Yu’s constitution was reserved at the sight of elders, especially this kind of elder who especially bore a mother-like temperament.
“Sit, take a seat. Don’t be formal when we’re eating together.” Seeing Chen Yu’s restraint, Mrs. Lu said with a smile.
“Fellow Daoist Chen, we meet again,” Yan Wei on the side also greeted Chen Yu smilingly.
Chen Yu had a better impression of Yan Wei than his sister Yan Xin, so when she heard him greeting her, she also responded politely. Not long after, the waiter came up and added a pair of bowls and chopsticks, after which dishes were served one after another. Everyone chatted while eating.
