Chapter 799 - 798: Little Lele?
Just when Qin Xinyu was anxiously waiting, Beisitian had already started dining at the hot spring conference center!She specifically brought Desan and Qiao Hongjie here early just to taste the breakfast.
"Did you two notice anything different about the breakfast?" Beisitian asked with a smile.
Desan was sipping a small bowl of porridge, and there were only the three of them in the entire restaurant. They heard that before they came in, there was one other person dining here, who seemed to have finished eating.
"It’s herbal cuisine, but the taste is pretty good. Of course, it’s not as good as Xiao Bei’s cooking. This should have had talismanic water added!"
Qiao Hongjie nodded, then wheeled over to the buffet table to get some side dishes, with Yan Jiu hurrying over to help.
"Eat your food, you don’t have to keep an eye on me," Qiao Hongjie said.
Yan Jiu wouldn’t listen. They came to take care of Qiao Hongjie, so there’s no sense in just eating for oneself.
"Xiao Bei, I thought you made us come early in the morning for something delicious, but there’s nothing special here," Desan complained.
Beisitian retorted, "Third Doctor, your taste has become picky in just a few days. I might not be able to entertain you in the future."
Upon hearing this, Desan quickly put on a smiling face, "How could I not be entertained? I can eat even plain bread and pickles with delight, not picky at all!"
Qiao Hongjie burst out laughing, "Then let’s prepare plain bread and pickles for him in the future. He asked for it himself, saves costs!"
Desan grunted a few times and went back to the table for more food, eating with enjoyment, showing no sign of dissatisfaction.
"Enjoy your meal, I’ve finished and will be stepping out for a bit," Beisitian said, wiping her hands with a napkin and heading out to the restroom outside the restaurant.
Qiao Hongjie stopped eating after a bit, but Desan kept running back and forth to the buffet table, never stopping.
Even after Yan Jiu and Feng Qi were full, he still didn’t stop.
Qiao Hongjie and the others looked at each other, wondering if Doctor Bei’s family had an issue with someone who could eat so much?
Desan seemed to sense what they were thinking and sighed, "You guys who are always full don’t know the hunger we face. You have rich meals all the time. When I finally come across something free, I have to eat more!"
"The man is right, if it’s free, we should eat more, especially since this breakfast is nutritious enough to last several days without needing to eat again."
A voice suddenly sounded beside Desan, startling him.
"Whoa, where did you come from? I didn’t even see you!"
Qiao Hongjie covered his forehead, knowing that Desan had eyes only for the food, what else could he notice?
The man didn’t seem displeased, "Am I really that invisible?"
Desan furrowed his brow, "You’re not food, so why would you be noticed!"
Qiao Hongjie sighed dramatically, predicting this exact situation.
The man’s cheeks puffed out, making his already rosy face even redder. His hair was a mix of black and white, slick with either natural oils or hair wax, and he glared at Desan with bulging eyes.
"How can you talk like that!"
Qiao Hongjie’s heart sank. This was heading towards an argument.
"What do you mean I’m not food, I’m not food and yet I have presence!"
Qiao Hongjie: "..." Isn’t that missing the point?
Desan backed away, annoyed, and continued to focus on eating, unwilling to engage with this muddled old man. In his view, this person was even more absurd than himself, wasting precious time arguing instead of eating while the food was freely available.
Yet the man was relentless, following every step Desan took to the side, insisting on discussing this nonsensical issue of ’presence beyond food.’
Yan Jiu and Feng Qi felt like this world was about to crumble, why would old people argue over such a trivial matter?
"What’s wrong with you, can’t you see the waiter urging us, I still have several dishes left to taste!" Desan snapped as he felt cornered.
The man jutted his chin out, "You need to apologize for what you said earlier and prove that I have more presence than food, or I’ll stick with you on this!"
Desan was so frustrated his beard was about to stand on end, "I can’t eat you, how am I supposed to prove you have more presence than food!"
He felt on the verge of tears, this was too unreasonable!
The waiter clearly knew this black-and-white-haired man, and seeing the situation escalate, rushed off to find someone.
Qiao Hongjie felt he should intervene as a peacemaker since they had important matters to take care of today.
"Gentlemen, gentlemen, let’s calm down, we’re just having breakfast, no need to ruin the mood..."
The man simply set his plate down and turned to Qiao Hongjie, "Then tell me, do I have more presence than food?"
Qiao Hongjie: "..." Is this truly important?
Qin Youwei, arriving after hearing the commotion and seeing how upset the man was, hurried over, "Elder Mo, what’s happening?"
The man called Elder Mo pointed at Desan, "This guy is too much!"
Qin Youwei frowned at Desan, who appeared unfazed, and then turned to ask, "Who is this? Did Qin Xinyu bring him?"
The man shook his head, "All of Qin Xinyu’s people are outside, this one isn’t from the Qin family."
Fury flashed in Qin Youwei’s eyes. What was the manager of this hot spring center doing? He had clearly reserved the place, so why were outsiders allowed in? Not only did they eat for free, but they also offended the influential person he had invited!
"Elder Mo, don’t be angry, I’ll have them thrown out right away!" Qin Youwei hurried to reassure, turning to his staff with a stern face, "Hurry up and throw these people out, these freeloaders dare to scam their way in for food and drink here!"
Qin Youwei’s men rushed forward to grab Desan, while others approached Qiao Hongjie.
Yan Jiu and Feng Qi exchanged glances and stood in front of Qiao Hongjie, although even with their skills, they couldn’t take on so many people, especially as they saw the security guards approaching.
Qiao Hongjie, seeing that Qin Youwei was ready to act without understanding the situation and hearing his rude comment, turned cold.
Taking things seriously, Qiao Hongjie’s aura shifted, no longer the easygoing presence but one accustomed to leadership. The Ghost Doctor Organization spanned across the country, leagues beyond the minor Qin family.
"Stop, I’d like to see who dares to touch us!"
Qin Xinyu shouted, striding in quickly from outside. Seeing Desan and Qiao Hongjie, he was delighted but also puzzled about when they had arrived.
"I apologize for the scare!" Qin Xinyu quickly approached them.
Qin Youwei frowned involuntarily at this, his gaze shifting between the two of them with uncertainty.
Elder Mo kept staring at Desan, too lazy to care about anyone else, not even relying on Qin Youwei to solve things. Yet, at the entrance of the restaurant, a figure appeared that immediately caught his attention.
"Huh? Little Lele, what are you doing here!" Elder Mo exclaimed happily, walking over.
