Lu Mingfei, who had read Dragon Clan before slaying the dragon

The manager was still explaining the difficulties of the restaurant when suddenly his eyes blurred and everyone disappeared from his sight because a small notebook with some beautiful words written on it appeared in front of him.

"Call your general manager and executive chef." This was what Eri wrote in the notebook when Caesar was negotiating with the restaurant manager.

The manager was thinking that the kitchen was indeed short of ingredients, and the restaurant had strict rules. Putting so many people in a medium-sized private room and providing complimentary wine was already an exception... But when he met Eri's deep rose-red eyes, the words in the notebook became an irresistible will, issuing orders directly in the depths of the manager's mind.

"Yes, I'll go right away." The manager took Eiry's notebook in both hands and ran out without stopping, like a guard receiving military orders from a general.

After a while, a group of people came running over in a huge crowd.

Leading the group was the general manager and executive chef of the area, followed by the restaurant manager and the chef with a dunce cap. They all tried their best to maintain their composure, but they were inevitably a little out of breath after running all the way here. As for the waiter who initially greeted everyone, he was hanging at the back listlessly.

When the general manager and the executive chef saw Eri, they suddenly knelt down beside her seat. They both crawled on the ground with their foreheads pressed against the ground. This sudden action scared everyone in the box and the manager, head chef and waiter in the back.

"I failed to notice the master's arrival. I deserve death! I didn't let the retainers notify us ahead of time. Our hospitality was truly sloppy!" The general manager's voice trembled. "The restaurant staff didn't understand the rules. They had never met the master in person. I heard they contradicted him and his guests. This is all due to my negligence. I implore the master to punish me!"

After hearing this, the restaurant manager and head chef in the back also knelt down in front of Eri, imitating the general manager and executive chef, pressing their heads to the floor and shaking like a sieve.

The general manager spoke to Eiry in Japanese, using archaic words like "retainer" and "head of the family". No one present except Lu Mingfei could understand what the general manager was saying, but this scene shocked everyone. The eyes of my aunt and Director Chen's families fell on Eiry at the same time. Anyone could see that this girl must be a very important person.

The general manager stood up and respectfully handed the notebook back to Eiry, waiting for her to give instructions.

"Don't want a double portion. Use what I normally eat. Everyone here needs one." Eri wrote slowly to the general manager.

"But we didn't know you'd be bringing so many guests today, so the kitchen doesn't have enough ingredients for so many people," the executive chef said to Eri, his head bowed. "We only have two portions of ingredients suitable for the head of the household. We'll prepare these two portions as quickly as possible, and we'll treat your guests with the best ingredients we can find. Is that okay with you?"

"Okay, those two portions are for uncle and aunt." Eiry pointed to Lu Mingfei's uncle and aunt to the general manager and executive chef.

The general manager and the executive chef were stunned. It was obviously against the rules to give the guests ingredients of the head of the family's grade and to give the head of the family ingredients of a lower grade. However, this was the order from the head of the family himself, so they had no choice but to obey.

"Yes, this private room isn't big enough. Do you need to dine in the owner's private room?" the general manager asked. "Or we can clear the area and immediately make a large, high-end private room for you. Tonight, the restaurant will exclusively host the owner's guests."

"No, just eat here." Eri finally instructed, "Don't tell my family."

"Understood." The general manager and executive chef came and went in a hurry after receiving the instructions, and the manager and the head chef were left behind.

A few minutes later, waiters in black walked respectfully into the box, which was surrounded by a plain screen. All the food and cutlery on the table were removed and covered with expensive cloth embroidered with bamboo and sparrows in golden silk thread. More refined and expensive ingredients were brought to the table in an orderly manner by the waiters. The knives and forks were replaced with pure silver, which felt quite luxurious to the touch, and the corners of the plates were inlaid with dazzling gold edges.

Eri ordered that the ingredients suitable for the head of the family be reserved for her uncle and aunt. The general manager would naturally treat these two guests as the most important VIPs, so behind the others stood waiters in black, while behind her uncle and aunt stood the restaurant manager and head chef of "Ristorante Honda". The restaurant manager personally poured wine for her aunt, and the head chef cut beef bones and side napkins for her uncle. The two of them looked at each other with wide eyes.

My aunt is just a housewife and my uncle is just an ordinary working class person. Although he often claims to be a member of the upper class, in the final analysis, neither of them has ever been treated like this in their life.

Eri, whose identity was recognized, naturally could not be neglected. It was the general manager who served her plates and poured her wine. The general manager was wearing snow-white gloves and a traditional kimono. Both the gloves and the kimono were embroidered with the family crest of bamboo and sparrows. Eri just sat there silently, and it was obvious that she was very familiar with this kind of service.

Unlike her well-behaved appearance when she was drinking with her uncle and Director Chen, Eri now had a blank expression on her face, and an air of noble majesty emanated from her. Whether the general manager handed her a glass of red wine of just the right temperature, or put a juicy lobster on the plate in front of her, Eri enjoyed it so naturally, as if the empress calmly accepted the service of the eunuchs, as if everything was as it should be.

Someone once said that a person has a completely different identity in different environments.

When Eri is with Gen Chisei, she is a well-behaved and occasionally willful sister. When she is with Lu Mingfei, she is the silly and stupid country girl who has never seen the world. When she eats with her uncle and aunt, she becomes a sensible and polite junior... But this is Eri's identity. She is a big shot who stands at the top of the pyramid in this city and can call the wind and rain. She is the most respected underworld princess in Japan. She is the master of the underworld family, the Uesugi family.

In the box, apart from the sound of cutlery colliding and the rustling of waiters' clothes, there was a deathly silence. No one dared to make a sound, no one dared to speak, and everyone was even breathing carefully. Lu Mingze accidentally dropped his fork on the plate, making an untimely noise. The fat man was scared half to death. He held his breath and glanced at the stern-faced men in black with a sly look, fearing that someone would pull out a gun from his pocket and suddenly kill him the next moment.

Except for a few people from Kassel College, no one else had ever seen such a scene. The uncle and aunt couldn't help but wonder what the family of the little girl their nephew brought did. Judging from her appearance, even a member of parliament or a cabinet minister would not be worthy of such treatment.

Mrs. Chen was completely desperate. She finally realized that the gap between people was even greater than the gap between people and pigs. Class levels existed and were a chasm that was difficult to cross. She gradually put away her snobbery and competitive spirit, as well as the slight discrimination against her aunt's family deep in her heart.

Such a respected young lady treated her aunt's family with courtesy, so what right did she have to look down on others? Compared with this young lady's family, what was their Chen family?

Seeing that it was strange for a banquet to be so silent, he took the initiative to find a topic.

"Is this restaurant owned by the Uesugi family?" Lu Mingfei asked Eri.

He noticed that the general manager called Eri "head of the family" instead of "head of the Uesugi family."

"It's run by our family." Eri nodded, and added in her notebook, "It's a cafeteria, but we rarely come here. My brother said it's not a good one."

Unexpectedly, after Eiry said this, everyone became even more silent.

Chapter 464 The Approaching King

When the general manager saw what Eiry wrote, his hand that was pouring the wine couldn't help but tremble, and he almost knelt down to Eiry again.

As a direct retainer of the Uesugi family, he certainly knew who the head of the family's brother was... Isn't that the current head of the Sheqi Eight Families, Lord Minamoto no Chisei!

The general manager had been proud of the fact that his restaurant had won Michelin stars for thirteen consecutive years, but the head of the family's words "not very good" undoubtedly plunged their restaurant into the abyss. No wonder the head of the family has been dining at their restaurant less and less this year. After knowing the truth, the general manager felt that his life had become bleak.

If the general manager was in despair, then my aunt's family and Director Chen's family were numb... shocked to the point of numbness.

They had never imagined before that the Michelin-starred restaurant they regarded as a high-end place was actually owned by this little girl, or what she called a "not-so-good canteen", which meant that this luxurious restaurant was just the tip of the iceberg of her family's business. This was no longer something that made them surprised or envious. When the gap was so big that human consciousness could not judge, all that was left was numbness.

Lu Mingfei had never expected that he was the one who originally treated them to a meal, but they accidentally stumbled upon a restaurant owned by the Uesugi family. This gave him a strange feeling... as if he was a gigolo who had taken advantage of Eri's influence and came to this restaurant to show off.

"Uncle and aunt, have a drink." Eri wrote in a small notebook and then raised her glass to her uncle and aunt.

My uncle and aunt raised their glasses in response with great respect and felt flattered.

They could no longer treat the innocent Eri as their nephew's rich girlfriend. The Michelin-starred hotel was just a not-so-good canteen in their home. The uncle and aunt realized that the girl's family could no longer be described as "rich"... Those people they regarded as upper class might just be ordinary people in the eyes of this girl.

Lu Mingfei sighed. Ever since the general manager recognized Eiry's identity, he knew that this dinner would turn out like this. Mrs. Chen's family didn't care, but after all, they met in a foreign country, so he still wanted to treat his uncle and aunt whom he hadn't seen for a long time well. Just as Lu Mingfei was about to say something to ease the awkward and tense atmosphere in the box, someone suddenly patted his shoulder.

A waiter in black pushed a cart with a silver covered dinner plate on the cart. He leaned over and whispered in Lu Mingfei's ear, "Sir, the Dragon King has something to say to you."

Lu Mingfei was stunned. He lifted the silver lid and found a piece of plain letter lying quietly in the plate. On it were some beautiful words written in a very familiar handwriting.

"The king is on his way to find you."

There was no signature or inscription on the letter, just this simple sentence, and a small badge of the Ghost Clan printed in the corner. Lu Mingfei immediately realized who the letter was from.

This was the message that Fengjian Liuli sent to convey to him.

Fengjian Liuli returned to the ghost group and monitored Wang Jiang's every move. Although he didn't know why Wang Jiang was not in a hurry to find the "God" but instead targeted Lu Mingfei and Eiry, when he learned that Wang Jiang had discovered the location of Lu Mingfei and Eiry, he immediately found a way to find someone to inform Lu Mingfei.

Was he found by that guy again... Lu Mingfei subconsciously clenched the plain letter paper.

Then, a fierce look flashed across Lu Mingfei's eyes... Come on, Herzog, this is a good opportunity to see how powerful the puppet you sent out is.

"Hey, what did that person show Lu Mingfei?" Caesar asked Chu Zihang, "What was written on that note? Why did Lu Mingfei's expression suddenly change?"

Chu Zihang looked at Caesar strangely: "How should I know?"

"Hmm? I thought you could tell." Caesar said seriously, "You can read so much information from Lu Mingfei's eyes. His expression has changed drastically now, how come you can't see it? Don't you brothers share the same brain?"

Chu Zihang curled his lips and ignored Caesar. He felt that this arrogant Italian seemed to be getting closer and closer to a certain stupid German after coming to Japan.

Lu Mingfei crumpled Feng Jian Liuli's letter into a ball and accurately dropped it onto the plate in front of Chu Zihang. Chu Zihang unfolded the letter and his expression suddenly became serious.

"Why do you have that expression?" Caesar asked Chu Zihang, "What's on the note?"

"Read it yourself." Chu Zihang handed the letter to Caesar.

When Caesar saw the words on the letter, his expression changed instantly. He frowned and asked in a low voice, "Why would the king come to us? Shouldn't his attention be focused on his goal of 'God' right now?"

"General Wang may not be looking for us." Chu Zihang glanced at Eri, "His target may be the head of the Uesugi family."

"They are here and on the way, but they are still some distance away." Eiry wrote in a small notebook and handed it to Lu Mingfei from under the table.

Lu Mingfei immediately understood what Eri meant. This girl possessed extraordinary hearing, and even what happened several blocks away could not escape her ears. Her alertness and vigilance were far beyond that of ordinary people. What Eri meant to Lu Mingfei was that a dangerous guy had entered her surveillance range and was heading towards them. Eri used the word "they", which meant that there should be more than just General Wang who came to arrest them.

But there was no panic on Eiry's face. Her expression was delicate and perfect. She still toasted her uncle and aunt calmly. Her uncle and aunt responded in a panic. They were still immersed in Eiry's noble status that was far beyond their imagination. They were completely unaware that a huge crisis was quietly enveloping the Kita-Aoyama building where they were.

Eri was really well-behaved. Until the enemy approached, all she was thinking about was entertaining Sakura's uncle and aunt and making sure everyone had a good time at the banquet.

Another waiter came to Lu Mingfei with a dining cart. He opened the lid of the silver tray and handed another envelope to Lu Mingfei. Lu Mingfei opened the envelope and unfolded the letter.

"The Ghost Clan and their gangs are heading your way. There are probably several hundred of them. If you want to escape, you can take my car and park it at the back of the garage."

The font was beautiful and sloppy. Although there was no signature or name, Lu Mingfei recognized it as Jiude Mai's handwriting. Lu Mingfei turned his head and looked at the dark night outside the window through the gap in the screen. He knew that Jiude Mai must be secretly observing them somewhere at this moment.

Lu Mingfei shook the envelope, and a car key with a golden bull logo fell on the table... This was the key to a Lamborghini sports car.

My uncle and Director Chen's eyelids twitched. The eye-catching golden bull logo was so stimulating. This was the world's top luxury car. As luxury car lovers, it was impossible for them not to recognize this logo, but no one around them could afford such a super sports car.

"Oh my god! Old Chen, your nephew drives a Lamborghini!" Director Chen couldn't help but exclaim, "He's driving such a nice car at such a young age. This kid has great potential! Your nephew will be amazing in the future!"

"This..." The uncle was obviously shocked, and his mouth was wide open. "I didn't know this kid could drive such a nice car now!"

The uncle thought, that's a Lamborghini! It's the goal so many men strive for their entire lives! It's certainly something he couldn't even dream of! If he'd known his nephew was driving such a high-end sports car, he'd have begged Lu Mingfei to lend it to him for a couple of laps, even if it meant losing face. He'd have shown off in front of his friends, at least for years!

"It's a friend's car. He knew I had a date today, so he lent it to me for the occasion." Lu Mingfei gave his uncle and Director Chen a perfunctory smile.

It seems that I won't be able to entertain my uncle and aunt well today. General Wang is leading the ghosts and gangsters towards here, so he won't be able to stay with my aunt and her family until the end of the dinner.

Lu Mingfei opened the envelope that Jiude Mai gave him. Inside the envelope was a simple map. It was a map of the buildings and nearby traffic conditions in Beiqingshan. The shortest route to the parking lot was indicated on it, and the location of her Lamborghini sports car in the parking lot was marked with thick ink.

Lu Mingfei looked around at everyone and couldn't help feeling anxious. If he couldn't find a suitable reason to suddenly leave with Eiry, it would give people the impression that he was a nephew who had a rich girlfriend and came to his aunt's party with a fortune to show off, and then left without following the rules. If he did that, not only would his aunt's family lose face and create a rift with them, but his aunt's family might even completely offend Director Chen and Madam Chen because of his rude nephew.

"Lu Mingfei, did you receive it too?" Caesar suddenly said loudly at the table, "Did the waiter assign it to you just now? The academy just issued an urgent mission."

Lu Mingfei turned his head to look at Caesar and Chu Zihang, and Chu Zihang winked at him.

"I just received it. Is it so urgent?" Lu Mingfei frowned and made a distressed expression. "My uncle and aunt haven't seen each other for a long time. We finally met in Japan and got together. I wanted to have a good dinner together and I would entertain my uncle, aunt and their guests. Can't you allow me such a short time?"

"You should know how important our academic exchange mission is." Chu Zihang also spoke, with a cold and selfless face, "The college sent us to Japan because they trust us. If this mission cannot be successfully completed, both the college and Japan will bear huge losses!"

The conversation between Caesar, Chu Zihang and Lu Mingfei started very abruptly. Before Auntie's family and Director Chen's family could react, they heard that Kassel College seemed to have an urgent task that required the three of them to carry out immediately. However, they all heard clearly the "astronomical losses" that Chu Zihang emphasized.

These young people are top second-generation rich people whose families run Michelin-starred restaurants and drive Lamborghini supercars. The "sky-high losses" they talk about... what an unimaginable astronomical figure that must be!

The three of them started to perform on the spot without the need for a script or rehearsal. They had great tacit understanding, singing and responding to each other. Their acting skills had been honed to perfection during their time as gigolos in Takama-ga-hara. It was as if Kassel Academy had really assigned them some urgent task that needed to be solved by the three of them, otherwise the school would suffer losses tomorrow and go bankrupt the day after tomorrow!

"Uncle and aunt, you heard it too. Something important happened at school and we need to rush over to deal with it. It's very important. I haven't seen you for so long. I really want to finish this meal with you..." At this point, Lu Mingfei sighed, as if he was about to go to the battlefield in Afghanistan, full of regret that he would never be able to return.

"What are you talking about? It's not like we'll never see each other again," the uncle consoled his nephew. "We'll have plenty of opportunities to get together when you return home. Call all your classmates and bring Uesugi along. I'll personally treat you and make you Hunan-style braised pork and authentic fish-flavored shredded pork!"

"That's right, we can eat anytime. It would be bad if it caused any damage to the school!" Auntie said hurriedly, "Uncle and auntie are already so old, are you still worried that we can't take care of ourselves?"

Lu Mingfei nodded to his uncle and aunt. He turned to look at the general manager behind Eri, "How much did this meal cost in total? I'll pay the bill."

"Oh, we have agreed with Director Chen's family that we will treat them tonight. How can we let you, a child, pay the bill!" Aunt rushed to pay the bill. She couldn't lose face in front of Director Chen's family.

"Guests! Guests!" the general manager said in awe. "You are all the owner's guests. We at Ristorante Honda cannot possibly charge the owner's guests any money! We made a mistake tonight and failed to provide adequate hospitality. If you were to pay, it would be a disgrace to us!"

Eiry tugged at Lu Mingfei's sleeve, meaning that the people who came to hunt them were approaching... In fact, there was no need for Eiry to remind them, because Lu Mingfei and the others could clearly hear the noise coming from the street in the distance.

"Aunt, stop arguing. You've all finally made it to Japan, and this meal is a token of Eri's appreciation." Lu Mingfei said to his uncle and aunt. "You can continue your meal with Director Chen and his family. If you need anything, just let the general manager know. I'll bring Eri back to see you when I have time during the summer vacation."

"Uncle is very satisfied with this little girl. Remember to take good care of her and don't bully her!" Uncle waved his hand and instructed Lu Mingfei.

There was no time to respond to his uncle. Lu Mingfei took Eiry's hand and quickly walked out of the box. They rushed all over the restaurant, and the waiters in the corridor avoided them.

Chu Zihang was also about to follow Lu Mingfei and the others out of the box, but was stopped by Caesar.

"Aren't you leaving yet?" Chu Zihang frowned slightly. "You're not going to say you haven't finished eating yet, are you?"

"What's the point of you going out like this?" Caesar asked.

Chapter 465: Elopement

"What do you mean?" Chu Zihang looked at Caesar. "Lu Mingfei and the others have already left. With your hearing, you should have heard it clearly. Those people are coming soon. What are we waiting for here?"

"How are you planning to leave?" Caesar asked calmly, "With Lu Mingfei and the others?"

Chu Zihang was stunned.

"Do you know what car Lu Mingfei just got the keys for? It's a Lamborghini Aventador, equipped with the new 6.5L V12 engine model L539, which can burst out a maximum horsepower of 700 and can provide a peak torque of 690 Nm. It accelerates from 0 to 100 km/h in just 2.8 seconds and can reach a staggering speed of over 350 kilometers per hour. If it were modified and tuned, it might be able to catch up with the principal's Maserati..." Caesar is an expert on vehicles. "But unfortunately, the Lamborghini Aventador is a two-door, two-seater sports car, which means that including the driver, its cabin can only accommodate two people... Do you want to lie on the roof and withstand a wind pressure of 350 kilometers per hour?"

"It's congested at this time, so they can't reach the full speed of the Lamborghini." Chu Zihang said calmly, "If we had a car with a normal displacement, with our driving skills, we shouldn't be too far behind them."

"Then may I ask, Master Chu, where can we get a car of normal displacement?" Caesar folded his arms across his chest and sneered, "Do you think it's too late to rent a car now? Or should we hail a taxi at the entrance of Beiqingshan? It's peak dining time now. By the time we hail a taxi, I'm afraid we won't even be able to see Lu Mingfei and the others' taillights."

Just as Caesar and Chu Zihang were at their wit's end, considering whether to hail a car on the street, their uncle suddenly spoke up: "Um, Chu and Caesar, from what I hear you mean...are you in urgent need of a car?"

As he spoke, the uncle showed a Toyota car key and said, "After coming to Japan, we found that transportation and everything else are quite expensive, so we rented a car. If Chu and Caesar are really in a hurry to use the car, you can take it first..."

"Thank you, uncle." Before his uncle could finish speaking, Chu Zihang snatched the Toyota car keys from his uncle's hand and quickly rushed out the door.

"Everyone, enjoy your meal." Caesar gave everyone a perfect noble smile and left behind Chu Zihang.

It only took a moment for the two to leave. Before my uncle could even react, the car keys in his hand, Caesar in front of him, and Chu Zihang had all disappeared. My uncle was still muttering his unfinished words.

"If you're really in a hurry to use the car, you can take it first... But it's a rental, and the penalty and compensation are very high. You have to return it on time tomorrow at noon, and remember not to damage it..."

……

Lu Mingfei and Eiry came to the underground parking lot of Kita Aoyama.

As a representative wealthy area in the port area, Kita-Aoyama's underground parking lot is naturally filled with luxury cars. Porsche, Maserati, Bentley... these top-of-the-line luxury cars commonly seen on the road are parked in rows in this underground garage.

But Lu Mingfei had no time to appreciate the graceful curves of these cars at the moment. He held Eiry's hand and passed one luxury car after another. The lights in the parking lot were dim, and they seemed to be rushing to the end of the underworld together.

Eiry's high-heeled boots made a crisp sound in the quiet parking lot, but even with the sound of the boots covering it up, Eiry could still hear Lu Mingfei's increasingly rapid heartbeat, as if someone was beating a drum in his chest.

Eiry held Lu Mingfei's hand tightly. Lu Mingfei felt the strength and warmth from her palm. He turned his head and looked at Eiry... The king would suddenly attack, and he would finally have a face-to-face confrontation with this destined enemy. It was impossible to say that he was not nervous at all. From the moment he received the message from Fengjian Liuli, Lu Mingfei became tense because he would not allow any accidents to happen to Eiry around him.

But looking at Eri's beautiful profile, Lu Mingfei suddenly felt that there was nothing to be nervous about. Yes, they were on the run, with hundreds of gangsters swarming towards them like swarms of bees, but so what? This was an escape filled with confidence!
