There's something wrong with the general.

Chapter 18 This guard is a bit cold

Butler Wang reported to Wen Yuxi about the restaurant's business situation. Apart from the incident of a ghost knocking on the door, which still came from nowhere, the rest were just ordinary things, such as how much it cost, how much it earned, and how much it made in profit this month.

Wen Yuxi gave Butler Wang a lot of freedom to play his part, and he could make decisions on most matters at his own discretion.

After talking with him for a while, Wen Yuxi prepared to go back.

Butler Wang stopped him and asked, "My Lord, how did you get here?"

Wen Yuxi said: "I walked out naturally."

"Then why don't you wait a moment, my Lord? I'll have someone take you back in the newly modified carriage."

Wen Yuxi thought about it and decided not to go back today. He would wait until tomorrow morning and send someone to pick up Wen Qianyi. They would pass by here and then go to Ci'en Temple together.

Wen Yuxi told Butler Wang about his idea, but he hesitated and said, "My Lord, today is an unfortunate day. The rooms are full. If you don't mind, you can stay in the same room with me."

This is indeed a bit inconvenient.

Since coming into this world a few months ago, he has never lived with anyone else. Eating, drinking, defecating and urinating are always inconvenient, so he might as well give up.

Wen Yuxi thought about it and asked again, "Isn't there another vacant house?"

When Butler Wang heard this, the veins on his forehead throbbed.

The Marquis's body is precious and worth a lot of money. What should we do if something happens to him here?

Although someone checked the room and found nothing unusual, what if?

He couldn't let the Marquis do what he wanted.

So, despite the risk of being scolded by Wen Yuxi, Steward Wang fell to his knees and loudly warned, "My Lord, this is absolutely forbidden. Once I find out the reason, you can stay here as long as you wish, but the situation is still unclear, and I cannot bear to see you put yourself in danger."

Wen Yuxi was so frightened by the sudden kneeling that he took a step back. When he reacted, he quickly squatted down and half-knelt to help Butler Wang up: "Butler Wang, what are you doing? I was discussing something with you, why did you kneel down so suddenly? Hurry up, since you think it's risky, I won't stay."

The ritual of kneeling is too heavy and can easily shorten one's life.

Although he had emphasized many times before that people should not kneel down at every turn, it was ancient times after all, when imperial power was centralized and people had lived in this atmosphere for thousands of years. Naturally, they had a sense of awe for the powerful. Wen Yuxi also knew that this was not something that could be changed in a short time, but he still hoped to respect everyone around him, because in his heart, everyone was equal and an independent individual.

"Really? Then I will arrange for someone to send the Marquis back."

The worry on Butler Wang's face disappeared. Wen Yuxi always felt that he was being tricked by this old fox. Well, let's go back.

"Then, my Lord, please take a rest first. I will call you when the carriage arrives."

Wen Yuxi shook her head and refused, "No, I'll wait downstairs."

After he finished speaking, he walked downstairs.

It was past dinner time, so there weren't many people on the first floor.

Wen Yuxi found a table for two and sat down, holding his chin with both hands, staring blankly in boredom.

After a while, the waiter in the restaurant brought a table of dishes.

The aroma is so fragrant, with all four flavors, which rarely evokes Wen Yuxi's homesickness.

These dishes were originally slightly modified Chinese recipes.

Because some ingredients on Earth are not available here, some of the ingredients in these meals are things that Wen Yuxi has never seen before.

After a day of strolling around, Wen Yuxi smelled the fragrance of food and her stomach started to growl. She was really hungry.

He picked up the chopsticks on the table and was about to start eating when suddenly his vision went dark and a tall figure blocked his way.

Wen Yuxi put down the chopsticks in his hand, turned around and looked. His eyes met Tiehan's indifferent, expressionless and serious face, and his heart couldn't help but skip a beat.

He has disguised himself like this, is it still possible to recognize him?

It shouldn’t be.

Wen Yuxi forced himself to remain calm, pretending that he had just accidentally glanced at him. After taking a look, he didn't pause, but picked up the chopsticks as if nothing had happened, picked up a piece of bamboo shoots and put it in his mouth to eat.

But after eating for a while, the person in front of me was as motionless as a pillar, which made it really hard to eat.

According to a normal person's logic, one should ask a question at this time. If one really doesn't ask, then there is something fishy going on.

Wen Yuxi put down his chopsticks, wiped his mouth, turned around slowly, lowered his voice and said angrily, "What's wrong with you? If you want to eat, find a seat and ask the waiter to order food. Don't stand here. You're blocking my meal. Please move."

The man frowned slightly and said, "Let's go back after dinner. The general is a little worried."

Wen Yuxi could actually hear a hint of helplessness in the voice of such a calm person. It seemed that he was really a difficult person to protect.

General...General?

Wen Yuxi's eyes widened and an expression of disbelief appeared on his face.

No way, if they can really recognize me, then all my disguise would be in vain.

Other assassins and murderers should be able to tell it too.

Wen Yuxi ignored him in frustration, picked up her chopsticks and took a few big bites.

Tiehan was not annoyed. He turned around and stopped behind Wen Yuxi, like a loyal bodyguard.

There are so many people around, it would be very conspicuous. Wen Yuxi has noticed that several people in the restaurant have noticed him.

They glanced here intentionally or unintentionally, then whispered to each other.

That expression seemed as if he was standing up for Tie Han who was standing behind him, thinking that an ordinary person like him was not worthy of such an upright subordinate.

Wen Yuxi took a few mouthfuls of rice and turned to look at Tiehan. It must be said that his face was quite attractive.

However, no matter how good-looking he is, he can't compare to his elder brother, Wen Qianyi.

Wen Qianyi's face, although not so stunning as to shock the heavens and earth and make the ghosts weep, is also one of the most beautiful women created by Nuwa during the peak period of her human creation skills.

But, since ancient times, beauties have been short-lived, heroes have been short-lived, and he has two of them. It's really pitiful that God wants to play such a trick on him.

The ancient version of the beautiful, strong and tragic character is full of brokenness.

Wen Yuxi ate and shook his head, alas, his elder brother had a tragic fate.

This person was so kind to him that he sent people to protect him. He even changed his appearance to get rid of him.

Wen Yuxi realized it later and felt a little guilty, or perhaps he had gone too far. He wondered what Wen Qianyi would say to him when he returned.

In order to prevent Tiehan from exaggerating what he did behind his back, Wen Yuxi decided to persuade him with both reason and emotion, and most importantly, to conquer his stomach with food.

Of course, he knew that the possibility was very small. After all, as a guard, the first duty was loyalty, and Tie Han was chosen by Wen Qianyi. Even if he didn't believe in Tie Han as a person, he would believe in Wen Qianyi.

Unless Wen Qianyi wants to mess with him and doesn't want him to have an easy time.
