Prodigal System in the Flourishing City-Chapter 1191 - 1190: Awkward

Lu Xiaobu reluctantly accepted reality. If it happened once, let it be, but could it happen a second time?

Opening the box, a book appeared before Lu Xiaobu.

"A book? The Classic of Tea?" Lu Xiaobu picked up the book and examined it, frowning slightly.

It’s not that it was useless; he still enjoyed drinking tea.

Of course, he just liked drinking it, not obsessed with it.

Those are secondary; the key point is he spent a billion, and all he got was this?!

Kind of a loss!

"This is not bad! Does the system want to fish for something?" The System Spirit gave Lu Xiaobu a completely different opinion.

"What do you mean? Is this book good?" Lu Xiaobu furrowed his brows, "I remember the Classic of Tea hasn’t been lost!"

"Yes, the Classic of Tea hasn’t been lost, but the one you have and the widely known one are two different things. You know Lu Yu is called the Tea Saint; the widely known Classic of Tea is what he wrote to spread through words, and the one in your hands is more like his inner experiences, more like a way, a way that can only be felt but not spoken!"

The system gave a messy explanation, saying that spending a billion to get this wasn’t a loss; instead, it was a small profit.

"Alright then." Lu Xiaobu rubbed his chin and said.

The Spendthrift System truly lives up to its name. He didn’t think so before, but now that he’s drawn a prize, it’s obvious.

Regarding the Classic of Tea, it essentially helps you appreciate what makes good tea.

The more you know, the better you can distinguish the quality of tea, naturally wanting better tea!

Isn’t that just being spendthrift!

Kind of interesting.

Since the System Spirit said it wasn’t a loss, Lu Xiaobu didn’t say much, directly placed the book on his head, and absorbed the Classic of Tea.

Instantly, a mysterious feeling poured into his mind, as though he knew a lot, yet couldn’t express it.

"Kind of interesting." Lu Xiaobu took a sip of the tea Su Luoxue had brewed for him.

Immediately, the different feeling emerged.

"The tea is strong, and the love is intense; the two clash. Although it has a unique flavor, it’s not superior!" Lu Xiaobu said softly.

This tea, due to different production environments, has distinct personalities.

Some are strong, some are gentle, some are clear, some are thick—all different.

The tea in this cup is of a strong personality.

However, this cup of tea was brewed by Su Luoxue after a battle with Lu Xiaobu, with tender love infused in it.

Thus, this conflicting feeling emerged.

How about that?! Isn’t it fascinating?!

Lu Xiaobu previously didn’t know either—how could drinking a cup of tea reveal so much? Truly, anything can lead to enlightenment!

He was indulging in this novel feeling when Zhang Meng came in.

Zhang Meng: "Young Master, Zheng Hai and Pan Yang have arrived."

"Oh, let them in."

Lu Xiaobu chuckled, these two often visited, so Zhang Meng was quite familiar with them.

"Brother Zhang Meng, I told you there was no need to report, but you insisted on following procedures!" The chubby guy came in unperturbed and laughed.

Then, the chubby guy stealthily looked around and cautiously asked, "Grandmaster Ye isn’t here, right?"

Ye Changsheng always bullied him, making him scared!

"He’s out having fun." Lu Xiaobu laughed.

"That old man lives comfortably, never worrying about food or drink—who knows if he’s flirting with some young girl!" Hearing that Ye Changsheng wasn’t there, the chubby guy became talkative!

Smack!

The chubby guy suddenly flew back in a funny posture.

"Who are you calling old man?! Flirting with young girls?!" Ye Changsheng’s voice came in, followed by the chubby guy’s screams and pleas for mercy.

"Grandmaster Ye, Grandpa Ye, I’m sorry! I’m sorry! Boss, didn’t you say Grandmaster Ye wasn’t here?!" The chubby guy’s wails echoed continuously.

"Is there something you need this time?" Lu Xiaobu looked at Zheng Hai with a smile.

"Wise boss, nothing major. My father asked me to invite you over, saying we should visit more often!"

Zheng Hai laughed: "My father said that it’s not a formal matter, just wants to offer some hospitality."

Then, Zheng Hai stealthily said, "My dad has got some good stuff, meant for you. It’s awkward to send gifts to the door, so he wants you to come over and take them!"

"Really?" Lu Xiaobu chuckled, "Alright, I’ll go then."

Since Zheng Hai and Lu Xiaobu took a trip last time, Zheng Hai’s status at home soared, and although he’s not the Young Master, he now has the right to contend!

Especially as Lu Xiaobu now holds 4G technology, everyone is considering various possibilities, testing the waters by offering good stuff as gifts—it’s also a chance to see the relationship between him and Zheng Hai!

He didn’t mind; he and Zheng Hai had been through life and death, so some face was worth giving.

Off they went.

The group packed up and set off, this time with only Zhang Meng accompanying Lu Xiaobu.

As they approached the Zheng Family gate, Zheng Hai’s father Zheng Tianlai called Zheng Hai urgently on the phone: "Zheng Hai, have you invited them? If not, wait a bit!"

"Huh? We’re already at the door!"

Zheng Hai felt awkward. What’s this about? Lu Xiaobu was right next to him.

"Ah! Okay! Come in then!" Zheng Tianlai seemed to have some inconvenience.

He hadn’t anticipated such a sudden situation.

Hanging up the phone.

Lu Xiaobu: "What’s up? Inconvenient? We can do it next time then!"

Zheng Hai: "Boss, what are you saying?! No matter how inconvenient, it doesn’t justify standing at the door not entering!"

Lu Xiaobu: "Alright then! Let’s go!"

The group entered the gates and arrived at the reception hall.

Suddenly, they understood why Zheng Tianlai, having invited Lu Xiaobu, said it wasn’t convenient.

It was simple: there were two Japanese people in the hall!

Across from Lu Xiaobu were Japanese, making it inconvenient indeed!

Zheng Hai sighed silently—what is this?! Even having two Koreans here would be better than two Japanese!

Zheng Tianlai came over, face full of awkwardness: "Mr. Lu, look... I really didn’t do this on purpose. These two are my friends; they unexpectedly visited, and I can’t..."

He was dying of embarrassment; he genuinely hadn’t foreseen this!

"It’s okay, I’m not a racist." Lu Xiaobu smiled, saying nothing further.

His character is known; he’s not the type who thinks all Japanese deserve to die?!

He respected those Japanese who contributed to the war against Japan!

However, the faces of the two Japanese weren’t as open-minded as Lu Xiaobu’s. At seeing him, they immediately showed a hint of hostility and fear!
