Chapter 218 - 218 Trouble



Kong Rui retracted her gaze and stopped staring at the two of them.

The servant bowed and served Kong Rui tea before saying, “Two more people have come. They seem to be here to look for someone.”

Kong Rui couldn’t help but chuckle as she glanced at the servant. “You’re quite smart. Are you usually so talkative?”

The servant was stunned for a moment before looking at Kong Rui with an aggrieved expression. “Miss, please don’t despise me. The First Elder usually despises me for being talkative, so I’m not allowed to go out with my senior brothers. It wasn’t easy for me to come and serve Young Master, and be able to follow you out, so don’t tell Young Master. Otherwise, he’ll force me to cut trees and dig stones again!”

Kong Rui raised her eyebrows when she heard the servant’s words, but she didn’t doubt the authenticity of his words. She asked, “What’s your name?”

“Miss, my name is Ling Nuo,” the servant said happily. “The First Elder gave me this name!”

Kong Rui nodded slightly and was about to speak when she heard people arguing.

“Hey! What’s going on?! It’s been so long since we ordered tea. Why is it still not here?”

The waiter immediately went forward to comfort the customer. He had a smile on his face, but there was nothing he could do.

After finally suppressing the anger of the customers, the waiter hurriedly walked past Kong Rui’s table and muttered in a low voice, “I don’t know what’s wrong today. There are so many customers, but the boss isn’t here!”

Kong Rui glanced behind the counter. As expected, the boss who usually stood there to receive customers, settle accounts, and collect money wasn’t around.

The waiter rushed to the two guests at the door and welcomed them in with a smile.

Halfway there, he realized that the tables were all filled.

This made things difficult for the waiter.

He looked around with a conflicted expression. Only the two ladies and Kong Rui’s table were left with two empty seats.

The waiter immediately walked towards Kong Rui’s table. “Miss, is it convenient for these two to share a table with you?”

After the man holding the flute glanced at Kong Rui, his eyes lit up. He took a step forward and said, “Miss, the two of us are disciples of the Tu family. I wonder if we can drink at the same table as you?”

Kong Rui raised her eyebrows. This person sounded very frivolous.

Before Kong Rui could reply, Ling Nuo said, “My lady only likes to drink tea alone, so you guys should go to another table!”

When the flute-wielding man saw that a servant actually dared to speak to him so rudely, his expression immediately darkened. “Who are you?! How dare you speak before your master even speaks? Aren’t you afraid of being punished by your master?”

Before Ling Nuo could speak, Kong Rui spoke first. “Young Master, you don’t have to worry about whether my servant needs to be punished or not!”

Hearing Kong Rui’s unfriendly tone, the man with the flute immediately became angry. “I was kind enough to help you teach your disobedient servant. How come you’re making it seem like it’s my fault?”

“Looks like the people in the imperial capital are all unruly. No wonder even the princess was secretly assassinated!” The man with the flute said without thinking.

When the other man beside him heard this, he immediately patted his arm hard to stop him from saying anything else.

The man bowed to Kong Rui. “Miss, please don’t mind. It’s our first time in the capital, so we don’t know the etiquette. Please forgive us.”

Ling Nuo snorted coldly. “You don’t know the etiquette? Then do you want me to teach you the etiquette of the Imperial Capital?”

“You!” The man holding the flute immediately glared at Ling Nuo coldly. “You’re just a servant…”

“So what if I’m a servant? Did I eat your family’s food? Why do you care who I am? I’m reasoning with you now!” Ling Nuo retorted fiercely.

Kong Rui picked up her teacup and remained silent, as if she was watching a good show.

She was usually taciturn, so the talkative Ling Nuo saved her a lot of effort.

It seemed that Chao Bai’s arrangement was quite in line with her needs.

The man with the flute clearly didn’t expect a lowly servant to dare to speak to him like this. He immediately panted in anger. “The imperial capital is indeed…”

“Stop snubbing the imperial capital!” Someone at the next table finally couldn’t stand it anymore and immediately stopped the man with the flute. “If you’re not satisfied, you can go back to your backward hometown. Why are you here?!”

“That’s right! I don’t know what has happened in the capital recently, but a group of inexplicable people came and acted like they were some sort of geniuses. Their arrogant attitude is really disgusting!”
