I'm not a drama god

"No problem!" The girl blinked. "Are you alone? Do you want to sit inside or outside?"

"Be alone, outside."

"Good~"

The girl held the menu in one hand and helped Yingfu pull out the stool along the street with the other hand. Then she trotted into the store and shouted,

"Dad! There's a guest!!"

Ying Fu slowly sat down at an open-air table on the street.

As it was late at night, there were no pedestrians or vehicles on the road. The faint light of the stars occasionally shone through the hazy clouds and was reflected on Ying Fu's back like a layer of white frost.

Ying Fu sat here in silence for a long time, his eyes fixed on the busy figures in the store, like a sculpture, motionless...

Finally, the girl came out of the store carrying a plate of steaming crayfish.

The crayfish was gently placed in front of Yingfu, and the fragrant aroma penetrated into Yingfu's nostrils...but Yingfu did not look at the crayfish, but kept his eyes on the girl's eyebrows.

"What's your name?" Ying Fu suddenly asked.

The girl didn't seem to expect Yingfu to ask such a question suddenly. She looked at him with a strange expression, as if she was wondering if he was some bad guy with bad intentions... But she didn't know why. When she saw Yingfu's flashing eyes, her heart trembled slightly, and she still hesitated to answer:

"You...just call me Jiang Jiang."

After saying that, without waiting for Yingfu to ask anything else, she turned around, took out two bottles of beer from the refrigerator, and opened them with a bottle opener skillfully. "What about you? What's your name?"

Ying Fu was silent for a long time.

"My name is Li Fu."

"Oh~"

Jiang Jiang handed the poured wine glass to Ying Fu, who took it, raised his head and took a sip. The next second, he was choked by the bubbles in the wine and started coughing violently.

It was the first time for Yingfu to drink beer of this era, and he was caught off guard for a moment. Jiang Jiang was even more surprised when he saw this scene.

"You don't know how to drink? I thought college students nowadays are all good at drinking..."

Ying Fu: ...

Ying Fu said nothing, but took another sip silently. This time, he was mentally prepared and did not choke again. Instead, the bubbly taste gave him an unexpected sense of novelty.

Then, Ying Fu tried to eat some crayfish. Although the strong smell of spices made him feel a little uncomfortable, it tasted good if he ate it occasionally.

At this time, he was still dressed for a dinner party, wearing a plain coat and black-framed glasses. He sat quietly at a street stall, drinking beer and eating crayfish... No one knew who he was, and no one cared where he came from. Even his ministers would never have thought that their majesty would eat and drink without any image in front of such a small shop.

Jiang Jiang looked at the young man in front of him who was slowly peeling crayfish with chopsticks. His movements were as stiff as if he had just tamed his limbs. He found it a little funny and interesting.

"Why are you eating crayfish by yourself in the middle of the night? Don't you have any friends to accompany you?"

Ying Fu hummed lightly.

"Are you preparing for the postgraduate entrance exam? I have a cousin who is also preparing for the postgraduate entrance exam. She seems to be under a lot of pressure every day, just like you are now."

"……Correct."

Jiang Jiang stared at Ying Fu for a while, pursed his lips, and walked into the store silently.

"Where are you going?" Ying Fu asked.

"I'll find a place to sit for a while..."

"You can sit here."

"...I thought you didn't want to be disturbed." Jiang Jiang hesitated, "I talked to you, but you responded so coldly..."

Ying Fu always spoke briefly and to the point, leaving others to guess. He opened his mouth, not knowing how to explain. After a long silence, he finally spoke:

"Sit down. I'm not very good at talking, but I can listen to you."

"Well... that's fine too."

Jiang Jiang carried a small stool and sat down at the table next to Ying Fu. He supported his head with his hands, rested his elbows on his knees, and looked closely at Ying Fu, who was dressed as a college student.

"Is it fun to go to college? My dad wants me to study hard and get into Wushan in the future... But I can't understand those math problems and English at all..." Jiang Jiang blinked his eyes.

"You are a college student, can you tell me what is there in college?"

Ying Fu was thinking about how to answer, when at this moment, the street lights suddenly flickered, and the small street table, which was originally bright, suddenly fell into darkness!

Jiang Jiang was stunned, looking at the street lights on the opposite street, and couldn't help complaining:

"Why is it broken again... I called the city government to come and fix it last time, and they said it was a bad connection. It was only recently fixed... Wait for me, I'll go pat it. My dad said that if something is broken, it might just get fixed if you pat it."

Jiang Jiang stood up from the bench and was about to cross the road, but the next moment, a hand grabbed him from behind.

Jiang Jiang turned his head in confusion, only to see Ying Fu, who was sitting at the small table, staring intently at the other side of the street.

“…Don’t go.”

The dim lights flickered on the roadside. In the reflection of the double pupils behind the lens, a ghostly figure dressed in white with a half-smile on his face was floating silently under the streetlight opposite...

His eyes were closed, with the slits between them curved like a crescent moon. Between his eyebrows, there was a bright cinnabar red that was extremely strange.

If Shen Nan were here at this moment, he would be able to recognize the figure in front of him at a glance!

One of the ancient ghost envoys, [Shuxi].

The man in white, who seemed to be smiling, stood quietly under the lamp, facing the direction of the crayfish restaurant. Although his eyes were closed and his expression could not be seen clearly, Ying Fu could feel that he was looking at him.

Ying Fu slowly put down the chopsticks in his hand, stood up from the table, and stared coldly at Su Xi under the street light. A light golden imperial pressure surged out from the depths of his pupils!

He is the [Emperor] of the human world. In front of him, even the messenger of the ancient ghost should retreat.

Feeling the pressure from the emperor coming from all directions in the west, the ghostly figure in white under the street lamp gradually faded and disappeared... He still stared at Ying Fu not far away, muttering to himself,

"There is actually a second variable that does not belong to this era... It's really rare."

As the white ghost completely disappeared, the flickering street lights became bright again, as if everything that had just happened was really just a temporary poor connection.

"Hey, how come it's fine before I even took a picture of it?" Jiang Jiang was stunned.

Ying Fu let go of Jiang Jiang's hand, but his face remained gloomy. He stared at the place where Su Xi had just stood, frowning tightly, wondering what he was thinking about...

"You just said that your father wants you to pass the exam?" Ying Fu suddenly asked.

"...Ah? Yeah...why are you so slow to react?"

"Don't wait any longer."

Ying Fu turned around, his tone suddenly becoming more serious than ever before.

"You should leave Wushan immediately... the sooner the better."
