Chapter 412 - Being Followed
Chapter 412: Being Followed
Seeing that Duanmu Tian had stopped, Third Master Duanmu called out to him in displeasure, “Xiao Tian, what are you doing?”
Duanmu Tian narrowed his eyes and sized up the two of them. A doubtful glint flashed across his eyes. Then, the corners of his lips curled up. He decided to see if the two of them were the two people he was thinking of later. Then, he followed Third Master Duanmu in.
Chu Luo tilted her head and said to Li Yan, “Duanmu Tian recognized us.”
“No. He’ll try to test us later.”
Hearing this, Chu Luo smiled and the two of them walked in.
The restaurant had two floors, but there were no private rooms. All the tables were in the open.
The waiter led the two of them upstairs.
Upstairs, the two of them were arranged to sit at a table not far from the Duanmu family.
When everyone arrived at the restaurant, they basically took off their masks, veils, and sunglasses as soon as they sat down.
Duanmu Tian faced the two of them and looked at them blatantly.
Li Yan sat with his back facing them. Chu Luo sat beside him. After the two of them came up, Li Yan first took off his mask and sunglasses, but Chu Luo deliberately only took off her mask and not her veil.
Duanmu Tian narrowed his eyes slightly. He was a little unhappy that he didn’t see their faces. A glint flashed across his eyes as he said to the waiter loudly, “Waiter, serve us a few jars of Shaodaozi.”
After Chu Luo and Li Yan ordered, the waiter even asked them, “Guests, the temperature here is very low at night. Do you want to drink some Shaodaozi? You’ll feel warm after drinking it.”
Shaodaozi was a type of baijiu[1] with a high alcohol content.
Chu Luo didn’t like drinking and asked, “Is there any wine with a lower alcohol content?”
“Yes, we also have…”
Before the waiter could say the name of the wine, he was interrupted by Duanmu Tian’s loud voice.
“Let me ask you, are men still considered men if they don’t drink wine with high alcohol content?”
Some people sitting on his other side immediately answered, “Definitely not. Everyone who comes here orders Shaodaozi. Is there anyone here who doesn’t dare to order it?”
“Hahaha…”
Everyone from the Duanmu family laughed out loud.
As if this was something that was hilarious.
Third Master Duanmu scolded softly, “Xiao Tian, behave yourself.”
Only then did Duanmu Tian restrain himself.
The food was served quickly.
The food in this restaurant wasn’t as exquisite as the food in other restaurants, but there was enough food.
Chu Luo had ordered a plate of roasted lamb chops, a plate of braised beef, two side dishes, and a soup. The entire table was actually filled.
Looking at the plate of steaming roasted lamb chops that was the size of a washbasin, Chu Luo finally took off her veil.
At this moment, Duanmu Tian, who was sitting there, suddenly whistled at her.
Li Yan moved his hand.
Chu Luo reached out to hold his hand.
Then, he saw Duanmu Tian cough heavily as if he had choked. He coughed until his back was arched and he almost fell off the stool.
Li Yan suddenly called out, “Waiter.”
The waiter quickly walked over. “Guest, is there anything else you need?”
“Help us change tables. That person over there is coughing so badly. Maybe he has an infectious disease. Don’t spread it to us.”
When the service staff heard this, his eyelids twitched. He quickly said, “Okay, I’ll help you change to a table over there.”
As he spoke, he carried the plate of roasted sheep to the furthest table.
Bang!
Duanmu Tian slammed the table in dissatisfaction, stood up, and walked up to Chu Luo and Li Yan. After quietly sizing them up, he asked with a cold expression, “Who did you say has an infectious disease?”
Li Yan also stood up, his aura instantly suppressing Duanmu Tian.
Duanmu Tian’s heart skipped a beat. He had a strong feeling that this person was Li Yan. He had long been dissatisfied with this person and wished he could teach him a lesson. Since he had changed his appearance, he definitely didn’t want them to recognize him.
At the thought of this, an excited glint flashed across his eyes. ‘Since you’re unwilling to expose your identity, I’ll pretend not to know you. See how I deal with you later.’
At this moment, Duanmu Tian looked at Chu Luo and deliberately asked in a casual tone, “Little girl, you’re really beautiful. Why? Are you here on a holiday with your father or uncle?”
“Has it got anything to do with you?”
Chu Luo glanced at him and replied calmly, “We’re not here for a holiday…”
Then, she asked in confusion, “Why do you look so familiar? Are you with the Sun family? Coincidentally, I have a relative in another village. The Sun family’s army is over there. Why don’t I call the Sun family and tell them about you?”
When Duanmu Tian heard this, he narrowed his eyes and said in a low voice, “What are you talking about? We’re just here for a holiday.”
“Then what are you doing now? Are you trying to cause trouble?” Li Yan’s voice turned cold as he slammed his hand on the table.
Li Yan’s slam made a crack in the table. Not only was the waiter afraid to serve other dishes, but Third Master Duanmu, who was sitting at the side, was finally furious.
“Get back here. If you cause trouble again, get back to where you live. Forget about eating.”
In fact, Duanmu Tian was also shocked by the suddenly irritable Li Yan. He was indignant, but he didn’t dare to cause trouble under Third Master Duanmu’s nose. He glanced at them as if to say, “Just you wait.” Then, he sat back down.
After Duanmu Tian sat back down, Third Master Duanmu gave him a warning look.
Duanmu Tian obediently ate.
Chu Luo and Li Yan left the restaurant after dinner.
Duanmu Tian narrowed his eyes as he watched the two of them leave. He tilted his head and whispered into the ear of the person sitting beside him, “Follow those two and see where they live.”
That person stood up and followed.
At this moment, Third Master Duanmu, who was drinking with the others, turned to look at Duanmu Tian but didn’t stop him.
When Li Yan and Chu Luo walked out of the restaurant, the sun was already setting.
Chu Luo asked, “Are we going to see the camels now?”
“Mm.”
The town wasn’t big, and the location that the camel owner had mentioned before was very specific. Therefore, the two of them quickly found the camel owner in this town.
Indeed, the camels here had been reserved.
The two of them walked out of the camel rental shop. Chu Luo said to Li Yan, “It’s a little annoying to constantly have someone tail us.”
Li Yan’s voice was cold. “Then make sure he can’t follow us.”
After saying that, he pulled Chu Luo into an alley.
There was no one in the alley here. The afterglow of the setting sun elongated their shadows. As the two of them walked, their shadows disappeared.
The person following behind them took two steps forward and followed them out. He rubbed his head and exclaimed strangely, “Why are they gone?”
After saying that, he turned around to walk back.
However, when he turned around, he was caught off guard and met a cold gaze.
“Whoa!”
That person was so frightened that he took a big step back and was about to speak when Li Yan raised a gun.
The person’s eyes narrowed, wondering why this person wasn’t playing according to the rules. He was about to say something. “You…”
Knock!
Bang!
After that person fell to the ground with an indignant look, Chu Luo walked out from the side. She looked at the person who had fallen to the ground and realized that he was only unconscious. She felt a little strange.
Li Yan told her, “It’s just an anesthetic bullet inside.”
After saying that, he walked to that person’s side and mercilessly kicked him a few times. After the sound of a few bones breaking, Li Yan wrapped his arm around Chu Luo’s shoulder and walked towards the alley.
The two of them quickly went to the house with only two camels.
At this moment, they had just finished eating. The owner’s name was Lie Tiancheng.
Just as Li Yan had said, Lie Tiancheng’s eyes lit up when he saw the two people in glamorous clothes and he enthusiastically invited them into the living room.
Li Yan directly expressed his intentions.
Lie Tiancheng looked at the limited edition watch Li Yan was wearing on his wrist and said awkwardly, “Sir, my family’s camels aren’t for rent.”
“I can buy it if you don’t want to rent it.”
Lie Tiancheng was about to refuse when a little boy walked out of the room.
Li Yan took out a golden lock and handed it to him.
When the child saw the beautiful golden lock, he immediately couldn’t walk.
Lie Tiancheng was shocked. “Hey, no, no. Why did this gentleman give my son such a precious thing?”
“It’s not expensive. It’s only 30,000 to 40,000 yuan. Take it as a greeting gift for the child.”
Lie Tiancheng: “!!!”
This person was so rich!
As the saying goes, ‘One feels obligated to help after receiving gifts from someone’. Lie Tiancheng’s tone instantly became warm.
“To be honest with you, my two camels have long been reserved by someone.”
When he said this, there was a trace of helplessness on his face.
Li Yan asked, “Can I ask who reserved it?”
“Erm…”
“Hard to say? Or cannot say?”
Lie Tiancheng used silence as an admission.
Li Yan didn’t make things difficult for him and asked, “Did the person who made the reservation pay the deposit?”
“No!” Speaking of this, Lie Tiancheng’s expression turned a little ugly.
“Since he didn’t pay the deposit, you can’t call it a reservation.”
“Sigh ~ I can’t afford to offend the person who made the reservation.”
“Is that so? Could it be someone from the Sun family?”
“No.”
“Is that someone from the Qin family?”
“No.”
“Coincidentally, we’re here to help the Qin family rent a camel.”
At this moment, Chu Luo glanced at Li Yan, who was saying all this seriously, before shifting her gaze to Lie Tiancheng.
Indeed, he looked a little surprised at first, but then he became even more enthusiastic towards them. “So you’re from the Qin family.”
