Li Chengfeng showed a trace of admiration on his face, and said: "Brother Ling is really kind-hearted. It's a pity that the world is ignorant and thinks that Brother Ling's martial arts talent has long been cut off, but they don't know that Brother Ling has been practicing hard and has made a great success! Even if Brother Ling loses to Ling Tianci, I believe that Brother Ling will become a real strong man in the future!"
Obviously, even Li Chengfeng didn't think Ling Xiao could beat Ling Tianci in the year-end competition.
After all, the gap between the two is too big.
Ling Xiao smiled faintly and didn't explain anything.
The two talked slowly. Li Chengfeng was the young master of the Li family and was very familiar with the situation in the royal capital. Ling Xiao got a lot of useful information from him.
Moreover, Li Chengfeng was a frank person. He felt like he had known Ling Xiao for a long time from the first sight and did not hide anything from him, which made Ling Xiao feel a little fond of him.
Not long after, a pretty maid in a green dress ran up to the second floor breathlessly. When she saw Li Chengfeng, her eyes suddenly lit up.
"Master, you are here! The master asked me to call you back because he said there was something urgent!"
The pretty maid looked adorable and cute, with big watery eyes. She spoke to Li Chengfeng and glanced at Ling Xiao curiously.
"Daddy is looking for me?"
Li Chengfeng was slightly stunned, then looked at Ling Xiao apologetically and said, "Brother Ling, you and I hit it off right away. I wish we could talk all night, but my father has summoned me for something, so I have to excuse myself! Brother Ling, please stay at Taibai Restaurant for the next two days. I will come and talk to you again after I finish my business!"
"It's okay, Brother Li, just go ahead!"
Ling Xiao said with a faint smile.
Li Chengfeng stood up and hurried away with the pretty maid.
At this moment, it was already evening and more and more people were coming to Taibai Restaurant, even the second floor was full of people.
The sun sets outside the window, casting a golden afterglow, illuminating the small lake outside the window, which looks sparkling and very beautiful.
Ling Xiao was drinking alone, looking quite carefree.
The wine is Taibaizui, which is unique to Taibai Restaurant. It is said that Taibaizui is brewed according to the Li family's ancestral recipe and is one of the most famous wines in the royal capital.
The Taibaizui that Ling Xiao drank was specially ordered by Li Chengfeng. It was a fifty-year-old Taibaizui with a strong aroma that left a lingering taste in one's mouth. It also contained traces of the essence of spiritual medicine. Warm currents flowed through the body, bringing indescribable comfort.
At this moment, a young man dressed in brocade and jade robe appeared. He looked quite handsome, but his lips were very thin, his eyes were narrow, and he had an arrogant look on his face, as if he was pampered.
He held a folding fan in his hand and went up to the second floor, followed by two pretty maids.
The young man in brocade clothes looked around and found that the seats were full of people, and his brows immediately frowned.
"Mr. Chen, the second floor is full of distinguished guests. Would you mind waiting for a moment?"
The waiter who led the young man in brocade clothes said cautiously.
Snapped!
A crisp sound was heard, and the young man in brocade clothes slapped the waiter in the face, causing half of his face to be swollen.
"You stupid bastard, how dare you make me wait? Do you believe that I will tear down your Taibai Restaurant?"
The young man in brocade clothes started cursing with a sneer on his face.
His eyes swept over the people on the second floor. He knew most of them. They were all people of status and position in the royal capital. But when his eyes swept over Ling Xiao, a hint of coldness appeared at the corner of his mouth.
"I want that seat. Tell him to get lost. I'll pay for all the food and drinks!"
The young man in brocade clothes pointed at Ling Xiao and said arrogantly.
Ling Xiao recognized this waiter, the one who had led him here. He stood up from the ground, covered half of his face and smiled bitterly, "Mr. Chen, that young master is also a distinguished guest. The young master has ordered that he be treated well! How about I help you change to another private room?"
"Mr. Chen, would you please come sit here with me?"
"Mr. Chen, please come to my place. It is a great honor to meet you!"
"That's right. Young Master Chen's elder brother is one of the five young masters of the capital, and is well-known in the ancient country of Great Wilderness. Young Master Chen is also a rare talent!"
The noise made by the young man in brocade clothes immediately attracted the attention of the people on the second floor. Someone immediately stood up and smiled at the young man in brocade clothes attentively.
Even those who didn't stand up nodded in greeting.
The young man in brocade clothes is named Chen Zetao, the son of a great general. Chen Zetao's elder brother Chen Fengdao is one of the five young masters of the royal capital, a famous young master who is the best among his peers.
Whether in terms of family background or status, Chen Zetao is enough to attract everyone's attention, or even flattery.
But only Ling Xiao was there, still sitting there drinking, with an indifferent expression, looking out the window, with no intention of looking here at all.
The anger in Chen Zetao's heart suddenly burned up.
He was already in a bad mood today because his father scolded him for not practicing seriously. He wanted to go out and relax, but there was no seat for him, Young Master Chen, at Taibai Restaurant.
What’s even more hateful is that this young man, upon hearing his name, Chen Ershao, didn’t even quickly and respectfully give up his seat. What a bastard.
"No, I want that seat!"
Chen Zetao insisted, the coldness in his eyes becoming more and more intense.
The waiter was almost crying with anxiety. He couldn't afford to offend the guests from both sides and could only be caught in the middle and suffer the anger.
However, Chen Zetao did not continue to embarrass the waiter, but walked towards Ling Xiao.
"Boy, give up your seat. These wine and food are mine. Get out of here!"
Chen Zetao walked up to Ling Xiao and said coldly.
"you… "
Ling Xiao slowly turned his head, a hint of indifference in his eyes, "Who do you think you are? How dare you ask me to give up my seat to you?"
Chen Zetao's face instantly turned gloomy.
Everyone around looked at Ling Xiao with some surprise.
This young man is really brave. How dare he talk to Chen Zetao like this
You have to know that Chen Zetao is not a good guy. He has done a lot of bullying in the royal capital. If you make him unhappy, he might break the boy's legs and throw him out.
Everyone was whispering, and began to show sympathy in their eyes when they looked at Ling Xiao.
"very good!"
Chen Zetao sneered and said, "This is the first time someone dares to scold me! Boy, you are so brave! Now I have changed my mind. Kneel down and kowtow a hundred times, then roll away, and I can spare your life! Otherwise..."
Chen Zetao's voice was sinister, and the threat was self-evident.
"I'll also give you two choices! Either you knock your head a hundred times and roll down, or I'll break your limbs and throw you down from here!"
Ling Xiao glanced at Chen Zetao indifferently.
He felt somewhat helpless in his heart. There were quite a few playboys in the royal capital. This Chen Zetao seemed to be only at the seventh or eighth level of the Spiritual Transformation Realm, but he was so arrogant.
If such a person leaves the royal capital, without the protection of his family and ancestors, he will be beaten to death sooner or later.
