Chapter 323 - 323

Chapter 323 A melancholy beauty gazes at the sky at a 45-degree angle.[Get rich, get rich, get rich!] Alarm bells rang in my mind, and the hairs on my body stood on end, giving me a chilling feeling of being targeted by a large predator.Under these conditions, his mind actually works faster.The man casually unwrapped the strips of cloth covering his hands, revealing hands covered in scales. "What? Are you mute?"[Get rich, get rich, get rich] When he saw his hands clearly, he got goosebumps all over. The scales on his hands were small and dense, and looked like abstract eyes. Even if he didn't have trypophobia, he was still disgusted.Perhaps sensing [Get Rich, Get Rich, Get Rich]'s scrutiny, the man's aura became increasingly dangerous.[Get rich, get rich, get rich] keenly sensed that the self-proclaimed demon's mood had soured, and his heart skipped a beat, and fine beads of sweat appeared on his forehead.If he had known he would encounter such a difficult person, he would have borrowed his follower's luck points when he returned the borrowed luck points that had expired.[Get rich, get rich, get rich!] His throat was extremely dry, and he forced himself to take out his treasured rare mineral from his backpack, despite the pain in his eyes: "I didn't mean to, could you please use this mineral as an apology?"While [get rich, get rich, get rich] was entangled with this person, Pei Hening had already shaken him off and walked into a small alley.Compared to the glamorous exterior of the alley, this alley is more down-to-earth.There are many miscellaneous small shops inside, including restaurants, repair shops, second-hand shops, weapon forging shops, fragrance shops, and so on."Lord Rocco, is it the same as usual today?"Pei Hening looked in the direction of the voice and saw a young man dressed as a ranger, wearing soft armor, carrying a large sword on his back, with bloodstains on his face and an aura of gunpowder. She nodded and said, "Add a plate of braised beef from the human race, two kilograms, and a bottle of white wine."After finishing speaking, Luo Ke sat down boldly and poured himself a glass of water.Pei Hening noticed her calloused hands and blood-stained bandages on her arms and couldn't help but frown; the injury was quite severe.Luo Ke picked up her water glass and took a sip, her sharp, eagle-like gray eyes staring straight at Pei Hening: "Hey, what are you looking at me for?"Pei Hening didn't sense her malice. She walked over and stopped three meters away from Luo Ke. She looked around and saw that the restaurant was full except for the one next to her. She then asked, "May I sit here?"Rocco put down his water glass and calmly looked at the person in front of him.Her long black hair was tied in a low ponytail with a string of pearl hair ties. Her hair was smooth and shiny. Her beautiful and striking face was clean and fair without makeup. She was wearing a well-tailored white long-sleeved sweatshirt and light blue straight-leg jeans, with white sneakers on her feet.Her only accessories were earrings on her earlobes, a necklace around her neck, and a small doll pendant. Judging from her attire, one could deduce that she was a hothouse flower.Rocco pointed to the seat opposite her: "Sit down, human?"Pei Hening nodded: "Yes, they are human."Rocco rested his head on one hand, wanting to ask her many questions. Just as he was organizing his thoughts, a staff member from the restaurant brought over a pile of food and placed it in front of her.There was a plate of fragrant braised beef, a 550ml bottle of baijiu (Chinese liquor), a plate of fluorescent blue round fruit, a dish of crispy small fish, many oddly shaped skewers, a bowl of creamy mushroom soup, and a fragrant pink pork chop. The portions of these dishes were all quite large."Lord Rocco, is there anything else you need?"Rocco shook his head.The staff member then looked at the unfamiliar face sitting opposite Rocco and asked, "Would the guest like to order?"Pei Hening nodded: "Yes, could I have a menu?"The staff member took out a thick cookbook and placed it in front of her, turning to the page on human cuisine and saying, "Guest, I recommend you order human dishes. You are very likely not used to other cuisines."Pei Hening glanced at the price first; it was within her acceptable range.She looked at the staff and asked, "Can I take the leftovers home?"Clearly, this wasn't the first time the staff member had heard this question. Without hesitation, he replied, "You can take it away, and the store will also provide an extra allowance for 1-3 people's meals."Pei Hening was relieved. She ordered one serving each of bean sprouts with pork, braised pig's trotters, steamed yellow croaker, stir-fried pork kidney, steamed pork with vermicelli, roast duck, and chicken stew with mushrooms.The staff took the menu to the kitchen.Luo Ke took a sip of soup, looked at her, and said in a strange tone, "You're quite frugal."Pei Hening looked at her with a complicated expression and said, "Sister, my money is still money, and besides, this is food."She didn't think being frugal was stingy.Rocco took a bite of the pink meat chop, her ears turning red: "How can you call someone'sister' so casually?"Pei Hening's gaze shifted from the strange food placed in front of Luo Ke to her face: "Lady Luo Ke, is this a suitable way to address you?"To be honest, she had been sitting there for half a day and still couldn't figure out what race this guy named Rocco was."Whatever."The blush on Rocco's ears took a long time to fade.Just when Pei Hening thought the conversation was going to get awkward, Luo Ke took a clean plate and a soup spoon, took a small spoonful of each dish, and handed it to her: "Would you like to try some?""!"How did Rocco know she wanted to try it?"Here you go, your eyeballs are practically falling into my food."She couldn't help but mutter under her breath, "I don't want tomorrow's news report to be titled'She's a sadist—Locke abuses newborn creatures.'"Pei Hening:...She's not deaf, she can hear."I won't be polite anymore!"She first ate a round fruit, which was very juicy but not very sweet. The flesh tasted a lot like coconut and had a certain effect of filling her stomach and relieving fatigue.Pei Hening pushed the bracelet on her wrist up and rolled up her sleeves, still keeping the bracelet well hidden."What kind of fruit is this? It tastes delicious!"Luo Ke glanced at her, then continued eating.She's really crazy. After finishing her mission, instead of eating and resting, she has time to get entangled with a human.Seeing that she didn't want to talk to anyone, Pei Hening didn't continue speaking.She had just finished eating the food on her small plate when the staff brought up the dishes she had ordered.She quietly took a clean plate and a clean small spoon, scooped a small spoonful of each dish, and placed the plate next to her: "Lord Rocco, try it. Most of the human food tastes quite good."Upon hearing this, Luo Ke, who was devouring his food, slowed down. He looked at the plate of food with a complicated expression, then glanced at Pei Hening and said in a serious tone, "Are you provoking me?"As soon as Rocco said this, all the aliens eating around looked over, and when they saw what had happened at their table, they couldn't help but gasp.Pei Hening:???She looked shocked and exclaimed, "How could that be?"Luo Ke squinted at her, and after a while, she continued eating with a dark face, completely ignoring her.Seeing this, Pei Hening looked up at the sky at a 45-degree angle, put on the expression of an extremely melancholy and beautiful young girl, and said to the bright sky, "It hasn't snowed. I feel like Dou E was wronged, and I am wronged too."At this moment, a new post on the Wanzu Forum quietly climbed onto the list of wandering main city cities.[Earn a Little Money at the Tavern (**Clan)]: Are these new races really that bold? They actually shared food with Lord Rocco! Only a human's hilarious meme can express my shock. How could humans cause such a mess?![Most Handsome Manager Ryan (** Race)]: It's no surprise that the new race does anything stupid. I visited recently and even encountered someone who couldn't negotiate a price and was dressed up as a monkey hanging on the shelf. *shrug* [Comments: 11,000][Likes: 62,000][Qiduoduo (**Clan)]: Roco actually came back alive?!

I really want to see Lord Rocco's reaction on the spot; it would be very interesting. [Comments: 19,000][Likes: 20,000]Rocco tightened her grip on the spoon, silently moving back half an inch to distance herself from the melancholy human girl before her. She was filled with deep regret; she had wasted her time sharing a table with this damned human creature!Pei Hening was completely unaware of Luo Ke's inner thoughts. She put away her melancholy expression and called over a staff member to help her divide the dishes into two portions, packing one portion neatly.Only after she finished all of this could she eat in peace.[DibiDibi]: [Location] I'm eating at this restaurant. I ordered quite a lot of dishes. I've portioned half of it for you and will bring it over to you later.[Princess Ningning]: There's a candy shop on the street corner, opened by food critic Lulu herself. Baby can try her luck and maybe she'll open the shop.Pei Hening replied with an OK.[Princess Ningning]: Baby, you eat first. I'm going to pick out some minerals now. See you later. [Images][Images][Images][Princess Ningning]: [Positioning][Princess Ningning]: I'll stay here forever. Come find me if you want to. (Kissing emoji)Pei Hening took a sip of soup and opened the pictures he had sent. The first picture was of his hand holding a piece of ore, the second was a pile of messy ore, and the third was an empty ore box.She then tapped the location Chu Xuange had sent her, which was in the backstage area of ​​the Dreamcatcher Auction House in the western district of the main city of Wandering.When she looked up after reading the message, she found that Rocco, who had been sitting opposite her, had disappeared, leaving only a few empty plates.Pei Hening noticed that Luo Ke hadn't touched the dishes she had distributed, so she took the dishes back and finished them all.——Helian Ye deliberately walked into a secluded alley.The honest man followed behind him, noticing that Helian Ye suddenly accelerated, and hurriedly chased after him: "It's clearly going this way, where is he?"He had barely finished speaking when a sharp pain shot through his head and he fainted.When he woke up, he was found tied up tightly and thrown on the ground in an alley, with a smelly rag stuffed in his mouth.Helian Ye stood at the boundary between light and darkness, carefully wiping the gun in his hand with a clean white silk roll.Hearing the noise, Helian Ye looked up, a dark glint flashing in his beautiful fox-like eyes: "You're Meng Shiyue, aren't you? Do you still recognize me?"
