Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

Just as the two of them were about to find a restaurant, a voice was heard.

“Mr. Luo! Mr. Luo!”

Luo Fei turned his head and got a little surprised. He saw a man running towards him. To be precise, it was a teenager. 

“It’s him!” Luo Fei recognized him at a glance. He was the prodigy of the Lin family that was previously discussed. He was a sixteen-year-old martial artist to be.

At this moment, the passersby around also looked over. Some knowledgeable passersby instantly recognized this well-known “Young Master Lin!”

“It’s that prodigy of the Lin Family?”

“It’s said that he’s only 16 years old but already has the strength of a martial artist. In our base, he can be considered a prodigy with great potential!”

“Eh, who’s that Mr. Luo? Does he actually know Young Master Lin? I remember that the base doesn’t seem to have a powerful family with the surname Luo!”

“Look, Young Master Lin actually treats that Mr. Luo exceptionally well, even lowering his attitude! Heavens, could it be that this Mr. Luo’s family is an even more powerful family?”

“You’re thinking too much! What powerful family? You must have read too many novels!”

For a moment, the passers-by were all discussing and speculating. At this moment, this Young Master Lin had already arrived beside Luo Fei. With a brilliant smile, his eyes revealed a look of admiration.

“Hello, Mr. Luo. My name is Lin Dong. It’s a pleasure to meet you! I wonder where Mr. Luo is going this time of the day. Can I travel with you?” After he finished speaking, Lin Dong was a little expectant.

“Oh? Lin Dong? You would like to travel with me?”

Luo Fei’s expression got a little strange. Soon after, he became a little puzzled: “Young Master Lin, this is…”

“If you don’t mind, Mr. Luo, you can just call me Little Dong!”

“Hey! Young Master Lin is too polite. If you want to be friends, that will be no problem. It just so happens that this is my first time in the north, please bring me to a restaurant.”

Looking at the young man in front of him, Luo Fei instantly understood the purpose of his visit, and could not help but sigh. As expected of someone born in a big faction, he was already so meticulous and mature at such a young age. Needless to say, this guy was obviously here to rope him in, and he was a genuine prodigy.

When he thought of this, Luo Fei felt secretly pleased. This was the benefit of strength!

“Mr. Luo, you have asked the right person! Let’s not talk about other things, this Little Brother is rather familiar with the food. This is especially so for the restaurants in the north. There is plenty of delicious food!”

When he heard that Luo Fei had agreed to travel with him, Lin Dong’s heart rejoiced. Soon after, he directly tried to establish a friendship between the two of them. He did not have the arrogance of a large faction and immediately called himself a Little Brother. In any case, it would not be a problem for him to say this given his age.

“Thank you, Young Master Lin! However, we can just find a random place to have our meals!”

When Luo Fei heard Lin Dong’s words, Luo Fei glanced at him. However, he did not care about any specific place, as he waved his hand and replied.

What a joke. For a Young Master from such a powerful faction, he would have been served with high-class delicacies wherever he went. With his current savings, Luo Fei was afraid that it would not be enough to order a single dish! At that time, wouldn’t the situation be awkward? A dignified martial artist actually ate for free, it would become a joke if word got out!

“Wow! Brother Luo, you are too polite! Today, this Little Brother is very happy to meet Brother Luo. As for dinner, I will naturally take care of it! Please don’t be too polite, this Little Brother doesn’t have much else, but he has a lot of money. If I don’t spend it for a day, my heart will suffer!”

When he heard that Luo Fei did not mind addressing him, Lin Dong was ecstatic. He did not think that he would be able to hook up with this prodigy so easily. As for money? He was the dignified young master of the Lin family, of course, he could afford to treat Luo Fei to a meal. 

Furthermore, he was very clear about Luo Fei’s situation. However, in order to take care of his thoughts, he had to think of an idea. Otherwise, he would not be befriending him but offending him instead.

Luo Fei was stunned when he heard this. He was not treated as an outsider! Especially when he heard the end part, it made him a little jealous. What a rich kid!

“Alright! Then I will have to trouble Young Master Lin!” Luo Fei did not reject, he immediately agreed. He was not a pedantic person. It would be a waste if he did not eat. The kid wanted to befriend him and treat him to a meal. This was not a big deal. As for the kid potentially asking favors as a return for the meal, Luo Fei told himself that he was thinking too much.

As for Lin Dong, he was very clear that Luo Fei would not reject him for just a meal. This made him extremely happy. Wasn’t this a good start?

Hence, Lin Dong led the way in an incomparably warm manner. At the same time, he also gave Luo Fei a detailed introduction. Finally, they walked to an extremely large area with exceptionally luxurious decorations. There were expensive hover cars parked on the ground!

However, Luo Fei’s expression did not change. It was as though he did not care at all. Lin Dong, who was quietly observing from the side, immediately nodded his head. He was indeed a prodigy! As expected, he was as immovable as a mountain.

This caused his desire to befriend Luo Fei to become even deeper. Soon after, Luo Fei’s group walked in. Lin Dong directly asked for a private room, and ordered a large table of dishes in one go!

Half an hour later, Luo Fei looked at the various-sized plates in front of him. The color, fragrance, and taste were all striking, and the food was exquisite. Some of the dishes were even food that he had never seen before. After all, with his previous status, he naturally could not afford to come here.

“Brother Luo, the arrangements have been made. Please try it. The taste will definitely not disappoint you!”

Beside him, Lin Dong smiled as he said to Luo Fei with some anticipation. At this moment, the two of them had conversed a lot along the way. Naturally, they were not as unfamiliar as they were at the beginning.

“Thank you, Young Master Lin!”

Luo Fei nodded his head and thanked Lin Dong. Then, he passed some delicacies to Luo Xue and let her taste them first. After Luo Xue slowly tasted them, she was pleasantly surprised.

“Big Brother, they’re delicious!” After mumbling a sentence, she immediately started to eat. After all, she was really hungry.

“Eat slowly!” Soon after, Luo Fei started to eat as well. However, his heart was soon filled with shock.

“Ding! Strength +1”

“Ding! Strength +1”

“Ding! Strength +1”

…

At this moment, the system notifications kept ringing in his mind. Although it was not as many as when he was at his limit, and it only increased by “1 point” at a time, the frequency of the notifications was very high. If he was fighting, he would not be surprised. However, the key point was that he was merely eating at this moment!

Previously, when he was exercising, he would only hear the “+ 2” sound every three minutes. But now, every few seconds, there would be a “Ding!” sound. If there was anything strange, it would only be the fragrant dishes in front of him.

Luo Fei could not help but be surprised. Even eating could increase his strength? If that was the case, wouldn’t his strength increase even more in the future? This was really something amazing!

However, he recalled that he had also eaten last night, but why was there no notification? The strength increase must be due to this meal in front of him! Luo Fei’s thoughts were like lightning as he instantly figured out the issue.

Lin Dong, who was originally paying attention to Luo Fei, saw that Luo Fei had paused for a moment and hurriedly asked, “Brother Luo? What is it? Is the meal not up to your liking?”

Lin Dong’s actions caused Luo Fei to regain his senses and he stared at the food in front of him thoughtfully..
