Airport noodle shop.

Xu Tian sat dejectedly in a noodle shop, his eyes swollen like a panda's.

Lin Wan'er ordered the food with great interest.

Would you like some braised beef noodles?

Xu Tian propped himself up on his arms, gave a cold snort, and turned his head away.

Lin Wan'er immediately said to the waiter, "One bowl of braised pork and one bowl of pickled cabbage, thank you."

After placing the order, Lin Wan'er forced a smile and sat down opposite Xu Tian.

"Are you serious? Why are you covering your face like that?"

Xu Tian gritted his teeth and glared at her. "What do you think?"

"You didn't see how many people were watching me. Anyone who didn't know better would think you caught me cheating!"

Lin Wan'er snorted, "Why do you care so much about their opinions? Besides, it's just a black eye, it doesn't hurt that much!"

Strangely enough, Xu Tian's wounds could heal on their own, even knife wounds were no problem, but this black eye just wouldn't go away.

What exactly is going on?

Thinking this, Xu Tian watched as a group of people who came in to dine were looking at him with strange eyes.

Her eyes were full of laughter, but she didn't dare to show it directly, so she turned her back to him.

"No, I really can't take it anymore!"

Xu Tian slammed his hand on the table and then called Ouyang Ying to ask what was going on.

After learning the source, Ouyang Ying kept laughing on the phone until Xu Tian gave him a serious warning, at which point he finally stopped.

"Your injury is an external injury; since there's not even a cut, your body's protective mechanisms won't activate."

"So that's how it is," Xu Tian suddenly realized.

Wouldn't that mean if someone fought him bare-handed, he would still get hurt?

Ouyang Ying added, "Young Master, you needn't worry. With your current skills, ordinary people wouldn't even be able to touch a hair on your head..."

As she said that, Ouyang Ying hurriedly added, "That's not right, who caused your panda eyes?"

Xu Tian couldn't directly say that he was beaten by a woman, otherwise Ouyang Ying would laugh at him again, so he just made up an excuse.

Ouyang Ying continued, "It's just a panda eye, it doesn't hurt or itch, it'll be fine on its own in a few days."

After saying that, the two hung up the phone.

Xu Tian looked utterly dejected; it seemed he was going to go to South Korea with these panda eyes.

"So, is there any way to make it go away quickly?"

Lin Wan'er couldn't help but chuckle.

Xu Tian rolled his eyes at her, "Can you please not be so reckless in the future? It's one thing to hit someone, but why aim for their eyes!"

"I didn't think that much about it!"

Lin Wan'er retorted.

Forget it, when we get to Korea, I'll apply ice and roll a hard-boiled egg in it. That should make me feel better.

Thinking of this, Xu Tian didn't bother arguing with her. The beef noodles had already been served, so he decided to fill his stomach first.

Unexpectedly, Lin Wan'er started causing trouble again at this time.

He only took a small bite of noodles before vomiting in front of everyone.

The diners at the noodle shop cast disapproving glances at them, and some even demanded to change seats.

"Grandma, what are you doing again?"

Xu Tian looked at her speechlessly.

Lin Wan'er wiped her mouth, completely ignoring her surroundings.

"What kind of rubbish is this? It tastes awful! How can you eat it?"

"We tried feeding it to our dog, but our dog won't eat it!"

Lin Wan'er's voice wasn't loud, but almost everyone sitting in the noodle shop could hear it.

Every now and then, sounds of tsk-tsk could be heard from various corners, all criticizing this rich young lady.

Xu Tian could only say, "Just eat it anyway. If you really don't want to eat, don't say so."

Moreover, he thought the noodle shop was alright, except that it used dried noodles instead of handmade ones.

"That tastes awful! You can eat it if you want, but I'm not eating it!"

Lin Wan'er pushed her beef noodles toward Xu Tian in a huff.

"Okay, okay, I'll eat it. Don't waste it."

As he spoke, Xu Tian finished his noodles in a few bites and then picked up his chopsticks to start eating Lin Wan'er's bowl.

Lin Wan'er was dumbfounded. How could he eat such disgusting food so deliciously? Was he really the young master of the Xu Group?

But what bothered her even more was that Xu Tian didn't look down on her...

Just as Lin Wan'er was in a good mood, an old man covered in pudding walked in shakily.

Accompanied by an unpleasant odor...

Lin Wan'er frowned subconsciously, her eyes darting around to find the source of the scent. When her gaze fell on the old man, she immediately stood up.

"Who let you in? Get out, get out!"

The other diners looked at the old man with disdain. Although they weren't as direct as Lin Wan'er, they didn't want him to come in and spoil their appetite.

The shopkeepers came out to chase them away.

"Go beg elsewhere, we're not running a shop to do charity!"

Lin Wan'er said arrogantly, "How does your store do business? How can you let someone like this in?"

The shopkeeper apologized while verbally abusing the elderly man and driving him away.

At this moment, Xu Tian, ​​who was engrossed in eating noodles, stood up.

"Give me another bowl of braised dishes."

After accepting the money and symbolically shooing the shopkeeper away, the shopkeeper hurriedly went into the kitchen.

Lin Wan'er looked at him with disgust, "Can't you smell this strong odor? You still want to eat it?"

Xu Tian didn't say anything, but walked past her and helped the old man to his seat. Lin Wan'er's eyes widened when she saw this.

"Xu Tian, ​​what exactly are you trying to do?!"

Xu Tian looked at the old man and said, "Just sit here and relax. The noodles will be ready soon. Everyone who comes here is a customer. The customer is king. Don't feel uncomfortable."

The old man's hands trembled, and tears of gratitude welled up in his cloudy eyes.

"How much...how much? I'll pay you..."

As he spoke, the old man peeled back his clothes layer by layer and pulled out a tattered cloth bag.

It was full of loose change, small bills.

Xu Tian quickly pushed it back, saying, "When you're out in the world, it's all about helping each other out. A bowl of noodles is nothing."

After the restaurant served the noodles, I didn't say anything more, just hinted that I should finish eating and leave quickly before leaving.

The old man knew he had caused trouble, so he finished his noodles in a few minutes and then stood up to leave.

Seeing this, Xu Tian hurriedly followed, and only stopped the old man after they left the noodle shop.

"Have you encountered some difficulties?"

The old man smiled and waved his hand, "Young man, you've already helped me..."

Xu Tian remained silent, instead taking out his wallet and stuffing all the cash inside into his pocket.

"A poor family travels with extra money, consider this a loan from me."

The old man, unable to refuse, had no choice but to accept it, and then, leaning on his cane, he walked unsteadily out of the airport.

Lin Wan'er looked at this scene, her head lowered in thought.

"Come on, we need to catch our flight. Aren't you in a hurry now?"

Xu Tian looked at her with a puzzled expression.

Lin Wan'er couldn't quite describe the emotions that had welled up inside her just now. She was just thinking that if Lin Zhentian were to fall to such a state one day, she would hope that someone like Xu Tian would be there to help him.
