Chapter 49: Idle People and Old Men Should Not Enter

  Akira's slender and elegant figure blocked the light from the doorway, and everyone looked over at him. His icy gaze didn't seem to sweep across them, but a chill ran down their spines nonetheless.

  Kazuki Tezuka is also a cool and handsome young man, but he has an extraordinary appearance and unparalleled elegance. The coldness of Akimine Zero is the kind that belongs to darkness, making people's hair stand on end. When Akimine Zero is in the dark, he has no presence at all, because it's necessary! But when he's in the light, his presence is absolutely overwhelming!

  Especially when a flash of murderous aura swept across Qing Shui's calm thoughts, it scared her so much that her heart almost jumped out! But she didn't even bat an eyelid!

  "Are you Conezo?!" Akira Kiyoshi couldn't believe it, was this a variety show?!

  Akane Ayaka's movement of standing up was slightly delayed, this girl, wouldn't she have taken a liking to Akane Rei and Suzaku Rei being very similar, and had some ulterior motive?

  Lin Zero didn't respond, nor did he glance at Qing Shui Si again, as if his eyes would be tainted by doing so. His amethyst-like eyes turned to Lin Mian He, and the crowd could clearly sense that the cold aura surrounding him had dissipated, replaced by a gentle demeanor between his eyebrows.

  "Sorry, his name is indeed Zero, but it's Kiriya Zero. I'll take my leave with Zero first, you guys take your time..." Kiriya Ayaka explained briefly to avoid trouble and left with Kiriya Zero, with Shinmizu Ryō's gaze stuck on them from behind.

  Qingshui Liang thought it was obvious that he didn't believe it, how could there be two people who looked so alike?! It couldn't be that Cong Sheng had lost his memory, and that's why he stayed by her side, right?!

  Kanata watched her leave, his lips moved slightly, but in the end he didn't stop her. She left him again, and even if she would have stayed for him, it would only be for a moment!

  He tightly grasped the drink can, deforming it, and with great difficulty managed to have a meal with her, which was hard-won between them and Bingdi... He no longer cared about the subsequent phone calls, all of which were driven away by Qing Shui's cold thoughts!

  Amber-colored icy eyes stared at Qing Shui, it was all because of this woman! If it wasn't for her, Lin Meng wouldn't have been so unhappy! She left just like that!

  Qingshui's enthusiasm was instantly extinguished as she felt a chill run down her spine under his icy gaze. Not just him, but even the other candidates who looked at her, including the usually sunny Taicheng Wu, had no warmth in their eyes.

  "Ryoma-sama..." Obaachan looked at him worriedly. She also felt that Shimizu Ryouma was being too pushy, even someone as thick-skinned as her wouldn't treat a girl like that.

  "Ryoma-kun..." Ryūzaki Sakuno was also sitting there nervously.

  "Whatever!" The expressionless woman turned around and left.

  "Wait for me, Wakashi!" Momochi also followed him closely.

  "Hiss..." Haitang lowered her head, unsure of what she was thinking about.

  "Kaito... Shoubudou meow..." Kikumaru Eiji scratched his head.

  "What's going on... what's going on... Akagi is unhappy, Momoshiki and Shoyo are also unhappy..." ōishi worriedly muttered to himself. How did things end up like this?

  Futaba had already opened her blue eyes, looking at the entrance. Her expression was still emotionless, exuding a cold aura. The honest person, Kawamura, also sat in his seat, unsure of what to do...

  What an unpleasant dinner! She was so angry... Although she seemed to calm down later. Now, her impression of Qingxue must be bad, right? Didn't expect a happy dinner to end up like this...

  What's wrong with Qing Shui? He actually dared to bite someone when Lin Mengyue was around...

  But they didn't know that her madness was caused by them.

  "Jiǎn Nián" is a small Chinese restaurant hotel, introduced by Lín Mù Líng. Originally, "Jiǎn Nián" was just a small eatery, but later it was acquired by Lín Mù Duān and transformed into a small hotel specializing in Chinese cuisine. It makes one wonder if Lín Mù Duān did this especially for Lín Mù Tiáo Fēng. However, that is indeed the case.

  Kaito Tatsuya was standing at the entrance of 'Rokunen' waiting for Kaito Ayame, but there were also many girls around him who couldn't help but throw flirtatious glances and shoot loving gazes at him. After all, Kaito Tatsuya was originally a charming and handsome mature man, as the head of the household, he could effortlessly exude an air of nobility and elegance, his hormone index skyrocketing. Even if there was someone slightly more handsome passing by, unless it was someone on the level of the princes, they would still be shot with dagger-like gazes by girls, why ruin someone's beautiful appearance?

  "Duān zi ah, xiǎo lián shén me shí hòu lái dào ā?" An old man's voice rang out. The girls who were infatuated with the handsome young man were not expecting some ugly and uncool guy to come over and disturb them, but instead they got an old geezer? They looked at the disheveled Gao Fu Heng Yuan standing behind Duān zi.

  He clenched his teeth, this old man! Didn't he just acquire his small restaurant? Must they meet again in such a gloomy and eerie way? He wanted to have dinner alone with Baobei! How despicable!

  Yes, this small hotel was originally a small restaurant of Gao Fuyuan's. Gao Fuyuan is a person who particularly loves Chinese things. Not only did he specialize in Chinese studies, but he also loved collecting Chinese artifacts. And yet, he even opened a Chinese bookstore and a Chinese restaurant?

  Anyway, in Tokyo, there aren't many things related to China that he didn't start.

  "Hmph, he just took advantage of Baby's love for Chinese food and made a ruthless acquisition. What's with the lingering resentment, as if he had desecrated his ancestor's grave? He did consider acquiring other Chinese restaurants, but who let the chef here make such delicious Chinese dishes? So Gaofei Hongyuan is doomed to be miserable, he likes Chinese food, and it's natural that he hired a top-notch chef. But why did he get targeted just because of this?"

  Wah wah wah, Gao Fu Heng Yuan thought this daughter control was simply too hateful! Cutting his flesh all day and night! Isn't having money enough?!

  "Alright, looking at the renovated small restaurant, oh no, it's a small hotel now. He's so angry he could cry! Rich people are always in charge! That stinky kid is always bullying him! The old man is all alone and weak, it's really hard for him to fight against evil forces! His son, his grandson, why did they all leave him?! The old man is so miserable!"

  Because the small restaurant was acquired, but Gao Fu Hengyuan still wanted to eat Chinese food, so he often came to patronize. In fact, he didn't have much resentment towards this person acquiring 'Jiannian', his children and grandchildren wouldn't inherit it, and the old man couldn't operate it himself, under the Jakmu family's banner, it would develop better than in his hands.

  Stinky brat, it's just that we really met by chance, and he actually put on a face for the old man! Be careful or he might really let his grandson elope with his daughter!

  Wait, what's wrong with him? He seems really cold all of a sudden!

  Gao Fu Hengyuan raised his head and met many pairs of fierce eyes, which clearly wrote "Get out of the way, old man!"

  What's wrong with this old geezer? How dare he stand next to such a handsome guy?!

  Gao Fu Heng's face turned pale with rage. In this day and age, even young whippersnappers don't know how to show respect to their elders!

  When Akane Motomiya arrived at 'Kōnen', she saw Akane Tendō and Kō Fūgen, as well as the flower-crazed people around them.

  Qingmu Duan's eyes lit up, "Baby!"

  The flower boys are boiling, wow, the handsome guy actually has someone he cares about? Someone has occupied the heart of the handsome guy! Instantly, one by one, they gaze at the person called "darling" with envy, jealousy and hatred, following his line of sight. But before they could see clearly, that person had already been hugged in Hakuto's arms, only able to see the girl's golden hair and slender figure, just like Hakuto's...

  Akane Tsukino has retreated back into the shadows.

  Seeing the arrival of Lin Mu Xiang, Gao Fu Heng Yu also slightly adjusted his expression, with a kind smile on his face, wanting to walk over, but Lin Mu Duan was holding onto Lin Mu Xiang and quickly went inside, hinting at Lin Mu Ling to do something.

  So, Gao Fu Heng Yu was tragically locked out of the "Qian Nian" by Akagi Rei's sudden appearance, and could only stare with wide eyes as Akagi Daisuke escorted Akagi Sayaka away, leaving him standing outside the door! A sign that read "No Loitering or Elderly Allowed" was also hung up for good measure!

  How heartless! Is he so detestable just because of his age? Having already taken advantage of 'Qian Nian', they still discriminate against the elderly!

  "Father......" Akane Hino turned her head back, she had just clearly seen Takashi Toyama far away, how...

  She gently turned her head back, with a bright smile, "It's okay, baby, Gao Fu Ye Ye has already eaten his fill, he just met him at the door and should go home..."

  "......Oh" Akane blinked her eyes, and didn't seem to suspect anything.

  This time, being able to have dinner with his own darling, Mu Mu's smile was radiant, and the world of the father-daughter duo was simply exhilarating.

  Gao Yun, who was blocked outside, was so angry that his face turned green. He walked to a nearby tomato stall, bought several tomatoes, and returned to the door. Under the gaze of Lin Hei, he pierced the tomatoes with his fingers, splashing the juice onto the sign, only hitting the two characters "Lao Ren". Then, he raised his chin, let out a cold hum, and left.

  You stinky brat! One day you'll know that discriminating against old people will bring retribution!

  Ling Mu Zero: "..." Indeed, he's worthy of being from the same country as that old rascal, Ling Mu Old Master.
