"Who are you calling peasants you plebian?!" Shen Murong lashed out immediately in reply to this haughty young man that just went up to the third floor.
When Duan Li and his party turned their head to look at this young man with a displeased frown, they found out that this person was the same young man that just got himself slapped into a pig face previously by Duan Li"s mother!
Astonishingly however, his swollen face was all but healed now, leaving not a trace of his previous tragic state, revealing his natural dashing looks that could captivate naive women instead!
By the looks of it though, his age doesn"t seemed to differ that much than the rest of them here.
"Plebian? Are you blind you peasant? Come and take a look here at my clothes, do I look like a mere commoner to you?" the young man answered as he swiped off his blond hair stylishly.
Shen Murong was just about to teach this insolent fellow when one of the latter"s personal bodyguard quickly stepped in.
"Please forgive our young master dear honorable students of the Jixue Knights Academy. Although our young master here appeared to be using crude words, he doesn"t mean any ill intentions towards everyone here." the bodyguard that looked like a veteran warrior apologized with a bow.
He doesn"t mean any ill intentions with his words?
My a*s!!
To suddenly call out people as peasants the first time they met, and this was already the second time, yet you are telling me that there was no ill intention behind it?
Then was that a compliment instead?
Do you really take us for a fool?
"Shen Murong, its fine.. sit down." Duan Li instructed. He doesn"t want to cause a ruckus while his mother was here, otherwise things might just escalate even further.
Gritting his teeth, Shen Murong snorted coldly before he sat back on his chair.
"Oh? They are from the Jixue Knights Academy?" the young man said with a surprised look and then cupped his chin as he squinted his eyes to gaze at their uniform up and down, before he shook his head as if disappointed by something.
"It seems that my bodyguard was right, and I apologized for my previous rudeness." the young man gave out a smile and tilted his head down a little bit to express his sincerity.
This had Duan Li and the rest of them feeling taken aback and confused.
Usually, haughty young man especially the profligate children of the rich clans and family would never back down like this, not to mention apologizing on the spot!
They would instead inflate their status and ego more by saying things like "Do you know who I am?" or "I am from this powerful clan" and "My father is this famous person" and more, in their effort to scare off their opponents so no one would dare to offend them.
However, not only does this young man apologized, his action even seemed sincere!
Are you actually a villain or not?
He then continued, "But its not entirely my fault! I never expected the uniform of the most prestigious Jixue Knights Academy to be this shabby! Look, even my servants behind me were dressed better!" he pointed.
Hais!
"In order for me to correct this misunderstanding, I"ve decided to sponsor for a new uniform design of your academy next time!" he nodded with a serious expression.
"..." everyone.
Is this guy serious?
Our uniform was created for both flexibility and durability in mind, why do we have to dress so flamboyantly?
All the servants behind this young man including his personal bodyguard face-palmed themselves as they sighed, making it look like they were already resigned to this and that such things had occurred numerous times already that they were no longer surprised.
"Oh by the way, my name is Fei Liquan! Fei as in from the most richest clan in the whole Jiu Empire!" he finally introduced himself with a unique signature bow of the n.o.bles.
The Fei clan?
It was then that they finally understood why this young man was so haughty, and he was indeed qualified to act as so. After all, there was no clan that was more wealthy than the Fei clan!
In fact, their total wealth and a.s.sets amounts to one-fourth of the Jiu Empire!
Duan Li wasn"t versed in this, so Shen Lu briefed him on the details with a whisper.
"Eh? Then does that mean that Fei Longwei here is also from the Fei clan since his surname is also Fei?" Duan Li said as he turned his head towards the other party, whom still hid his face with the dark shadow skill.
"Fei Longwei?" the young man called Fei Liquan was startled when he heard this name. He then quickly shifted his gaze towards the direction that Duan Li stared at and found the person in question.
Sighing deeply, Fei Longwei cancelled his shadow cloak on his face, revealing himself. When Fei Liquan saw this, he jumped up in excitement as he quickly dashed towards Fei Longwei.
"Brother Long!"
Eh?
Again, they were surprised by this. From the nickname that this Fei Liquan used to call out Fei Longwei, it seems that their relationship were very close with each other.
"Brother Liquan.. its been a while.." Fei Longwei greeted the other party with a smile. This was rare for Duan Li and the others to see, as the latter was usually indifferent and emotionless for most of the time, appearing like a man of solitude.
"Uwahh! Brother Long! How many years has it been, I"ve missed you!" Fei Liquan bawled out into tears, and it took quite a while for him to settle down.
...
Fei Longwei sighed before he turned to them and explained, "This person here is the young scion of the Fei Clan, and what his personal bodyguard said over there just now was true, while his words were harsh, he doesn"t mean anything behind it."
He then told them that while he was indeed from the same Fei Clan, he was from the furthest branch family and was closer to being a commoner than part of the actual Fei Clan.
However, it was a tradition that children who bore the blood of Fei Clan, even if its just a single drop of it flowed inside their veins, to partic.i.p.ate in the coming of age ceremony when they were 12.
They had to go through the trials of Brave, which was located in the Eastern wilds of Mount. Kilimanjaro and raced to reach the top.
At that time, this young scion derailed off from the provided track because he was not interested to partic.i.p.ate in such trials and was only looking for a good place to nap.
It was then that Fei Longwei, whom had also derailed from the track heard someone shouting so loudly nearby about being a scion of the Fei Clan and would give them ten thousand gold if they let him off.
Feeling concerned, Fei Longwei immediately dashed towards this location and found out that the young scion of the Fei Clan was negotiating with a pack of wild wolves!
Had it not been for this dire situation that almost got this Fei Liquan killed by those ravageous wolves, his lower jaw would have already dropped to the ground. But alas, he had to quickly s.n.a.t.c.h this scion and escape to safety together.
From then on, this Fei Liquan started to treat him as an older brother. But Fei Longwei soon found out that this young scion"s mouth somehow was a powerful magnet for offending people!
Anywhere they went, there would always be trouble brewing on and about. To make matters worse, this young scion had the tendency to call people with derogatary remarks based on their appearance!
To the young scion, the words he used were just a matter of fact, and his way of thinking was purely based on the logic he saw. This had caused their Clan Head to be feeling extremely remorseful and they soon had to categorized his condition as "Intellectually Disabled".
Fortunately, this fellow could actually learn from his mistake, albeit at a very slow pace, and the catch was; one had to beat his logic first!
Everyone nodded when they listened to all this, and they couldn"t help but cast a pitiful glance towards the object of their gossip.
"Speaking of which, if I am not mistaken, when he first saw us, he tried to shoo us away while telling us to suck our momma"s t*ts.. was this also not intentional?" Xu Rong that was still not convinced asked out with narrowed gaze.
"That.. Brother Liquan, would you care to explain?" Fei Longwei immediately pa.s.sed this difficult question to the perpetrator himself.
"Huh? Isn"t it normal for peasants that couldn"t afford to eat delicious stuff to suck their mother"s milk? After all, that should be the most delicious drink that they could afford for free.." he answered with a confident tone, as if there was nothing wrong with his sentences.
Meanwhile, when they heard this, the urge to beat the other party up to death almost took over their sanity. But recalling that this Fei Liquan was "Intellectually Disabled", they only ended up with a long deep sigh.
"Nevermind.." Xu Rong said, feeling defeated.
"Great! Now all the misunderstanding is settled, I"m gonna order something to eat! Oh and by the way, I"ll buy for everyone here since I get to meet my Brother Long after 5 years of not seeing each other!" Fei Liquan energetically said.
Everyone turned their head towards Fei Longwei and saw the latter"s complicated expression.
Not seeing the other party for 5 years? Isn"t that the same thing as avoiding?
Hais!
Intellectually disabled indeed!
"Y-Young master! The master had just said to not overspend again this month.." Fei Liquan"s personal bodyguard said with a troubled look.
"Enough! What do a sword-fetish man like you whom slept with his sword day and night could possibly understand the relationship between us brothers? This fateful day calls for a celebration!" Fei Liquan reprimanded the other party.
He then turned around towards his five other servants as he instructed, "Men! Empty out your pockets right now and lets see how much we"ve got!"
"..." Everyone.
Is he stealing from his own servant right now?
"Y-Young Master.. why do we have to pay for the food as well.." asked one of the servants, feeling both confused and aggrieved.
Hearing this question, Fei Liquan furrowed his brows in displeasure.
"Huh? Do you still not get it? Father only said to me alone to not overspend. That means he is also hinting that I can use other people"s money first because that way, my money will not be used! Furthermore, my father is the one whom had always paid your monthly salary, so shouldn"t this be obvious?" he answered and shook his head.
Why is this servant of mine so slow?
Its not like father were restricted by his own a.s.sets like me!
If I use your money, all you have to do is ask my father to pay you up again!
Hmph!
"I-Is that so.. okay then.." the servant replied with a blank look as he scratched his head before each of them handed their spirit stones inside their spatial ring.
"..." Everyone.
Isn"t that what is called as borrowing?
And we are sure that that"s not what your father meant when he told you not to overspend..?
Huala!
With a single thought, roughly about 3 High quality spirit stones worth of money were acc.u.mulated together on top of the marble table.
Fei Liquan crossed both arms on his chest with a proud look as he handed all of this over to Duan Li and his party.
Cough! Cough!
"This.. its not enough.." Duan Li said with great difficulty as he almost broke out into a laughter.
Just his mother alone had ordered a dish that was worth 3 high quality spirit stones, yet all of these combined was just barely enough to cover such a cost!
Suupp!
Heng Wu swiftly returned after making the order for the Dominion King Lobster and saw another familiar face.
"Ahh! Esteemed guest Fei Liquan! I haven"t seen you for two weeks! Welcome!"
