Chapter 501: Little Seven Was Threatened?
Translator: Larbre Studio Editor: Larbre Studio
“Third Brother, are we going back to the Capital directly?” Little Seventh Prince asked while chewing the meat bun when there was nobody around. Baili Jia Jue supported his side face with his long and slender fingers; he seemed to be pondering over something. “We still have plenty of time, go to the provincial capital first.”
“The provincial capital?” Helian Wei Wei felt interested all of a sudden. “What identity are we going to use this time?”
Baili Jia Jue smiled evilly and said, “Lord Wei has done so much for the people, it’s quite acceptable for you to be promoted as a magistrate in the provincial capital.”
Looking at the way his Third Brother smiled, Little Seventh Prince could feel an icy numbness on his scalp…
However, there must be a lot of delicious food in the provincial capital!
Little Seventh Prince’s expression became extremely serious as he thought of it. He looked straight to the front with a solemn and dignified face, seemingly quite reliable at this moment.
The Shadows exchanged looks with each other and asked, “Why does Little Seventh Prince become so serious all of a sudden?”
“He must be touched by the people just now.” One of the Shadows said as he sniffled, “Our Little Master has finally grown up!”
However, they had to admit that reality was always different from their imagination.
Owing to the reason that the next sentence coming from the little one was that, “You guys go right ahead to the provincial capital first and inquire about the best restaurant there!”
The mouths of the Shadows twitched in unison, this is all he has in his mind as he was racking his brain just now?!
Helian Wei Wei chuckled softly as she listened to the conversation out there. She remembered the request from the little one along the journey and found him a restaurant that looked quite good from the outside.
The weather in the provincial capital was very nice, the west side was close to the sea and the Capital was only a half-day journey across the mountain from the east side.
It was very obvious that this was an affluent place. Although it was not very far from Fuping County, it was a far cry from Fuping.
There were quite a number of living sea creatures being raised in the restaurant, but Helian Wei Wei did not find them unusual.
After all, there was some food in the War Dragon Empire that the common people would not dare to eat yet.
It was considered lucky for them if they could get some sea crabs and lobsters.
On the other hand, Little Seventh Prince was extremely interested. He licked his lips with his tongue while lying against the fish tank and staring at the sea creatures inside. Since he was not tall enough, he had to stand on tiptoe. An extremely solemn look once again appeared on his cool little face.
As he finished watching, he turned around and stared at his Third Brother.
Helian Wei Wei would bet that if it was not because Baili Jia Jue was here, this restaurant would have to give up on their fish tank as Little Seven would definitely jump into it to catch the sea creature alive!
Right at this moment, they could hear someone talking behind them, “One lobster and one sea crab!”
Helian Wei Wei looked back and realized that the waiter was standing behind them.
But they haven’t ordered anything, why did he start to place an order for them already?
Helian Wei Wei knitted her beautiful brows together and said, “We still haven’t decided what to eat yet.”
“Dear customer, please stop kidding with me. You have been looking at it for so long and the Young Master even pointed at our fish tank with his hand just now, isn’t that equivalent to ordering dishes?” The waiter said with a smile as he wrote down the order in the bill. “Don’t worry, the kitchen has received your orders and has already started preparing right now. Please have a seat as the dishes are almost done.”
Little Seventh Prince stared at him angrily and said, “I’m just simply pointing at it, I didn’t ask anyone to take down my order.”
“My dear Little Master.” The waiter said as he closed the menu in his hands. His attitude was no longer as gentle as before. “Let me give you a word of advice. In Bayview Seafood Restaurant, you have to make orders when you point at something. Why would you point at it if you don’t want to order?”
This was the first time the little one heard about such a ridiculous statement of gangster logic. He took a glance at his Third Brother with his round eyes.
Baili Jia Jue had a calm look on his face, the corner of his lips slightly raised, looking so harmless. However, those who knew him well were clearly aware that this was a prelude to his anger.
Helian Wei Wei squinted her eyes and met her gaze with the arrogant waiter and said, “Don’t you afraid that someone would charge you for entrapping people in such a way?”
“Hey, this customer, what are you talking about? What do you mean by entrapping? We open our door to do business here, there’s nothing wrong for us to serve the dishes after you’ve pointed it out. Besides, open your eyes and watch carefully where you are right now, it’s the provincial capital! Even the Retired Emperor has to get seafood from our place to be sent to the palace if he wants to eat it, did you get it?” the waiter sneered upon saying this. “Oh yeah, don’t blame me for saying things that are unpleasant to hear. I warn you, don’t try to mess with our Bayview Seafood Restaurant, otherwise, you will be the only person who gets unlucky in the end!”
The eyes of Little Seventh Prince completely turned cold, the rustling sound of his clothes could clearly be heard. The level of his martial arts maxed up to 100% within a second.
The Shadows covered up their faces with their hands, thinking in their minds that the waiter was absolutely going to die!
Out of their expectations, Little Seventh Prince who had always upheld violence actually did not start beating him up. Instead, he heaved a long sigh and hugged Helian Wei Wei’s waist before saying, “Let’s not eat here.”
“Why not? We have already ordered the dishes.” Helian Wei Wei’s eyes turned cold as well. She put her hand on the little one’s head and said, “Since we have already spent the money, we should try and see what’s so special about the seafood here.”
Little Seventh Prince lowered his voice and said, “Actually, Imperial Grandfather is not into seafood, he will feel itchy all over his body if he eats prawn. All the seafood in the palace is in fact for me… I will not eat seafood anymore! Let’s see how rampant he can be!”
“It’s okay, we can still eat the seafood.” Helian Wei Wei rubbed the little one’s head again. “The fact that they are acting so arrogantly has nothing to do with you, it doesn’t matter if you like to eat seafood or not. Even if you don’t like seafood, they can just make up any other stories. See, they just made a story using Retired Emperor’s name. I guess it’s time to teach them a lesson.”
It’s not a big deal to give them a dressing-down.
But first, beating him up was not a fundamental solution to this problem. Secondly, everyone knew that she did not like to play rough.
She would be pleased if there was a more civilized way that could be used to crush the one who was supporting this Bayview Seafood Restaurant at the back.
Helian Wei Wei smirked as she pondered. The dishes were served just when she brought the little one over to take a seat at an octagonal table, however…
The lobster in the plate was so much smaller compared to the one they saw in the fish tank, it was almost halved in size.
The crab was even worse. It looked so small that they were unable to tell if it was a sea crab. It looked more like a small river crab.
Helian Wei Wei lowered her eyes and searched for the price.
50 silver!?
Helian Wei Wei sneered, seriously this is tantamount to robbery.
Plates of seafood like these were only worthy of five silver at most.
Not to mention the smell that emitted from the dishes, it was clearly made by dead sea creatures but not fresh living seafood.
“This prawn is totally different from the one that I pointed just now.” Little Seventh Prince was furious, where is the big lobster?!
There were two other foreign merchants who faced the same issue with Helian Wei Wei at the same time. They wanted to try out the seafood in the provincial capital at this restaurant to see whether it was possible for them to bring the food back to their hometown. They never expected that they would be scammed for a meal.
