Chapter 323: Encounters
In fact, after returning to his residence, Prime Minister Xu immediately began to vent his anger.
Seeing that Prime Minister Xu was so angry, Xu Jinxin went directly to him. "Father, why are you so angry for no reason? Is something wrong? Why don't you just tell me and see if I can help you?"
Xu Jinxin spoke thoughtfully, genuinely wanting to know what had happened to her father that made him so angry upon his return, as if something terrible had occurred.
Prime Minister Xu had told Xu Jinxin the whole story, and Xu Jinxin was so angry that she wanted to confront Gan Luo.
"Indeed, there is a significant disparity in status between me and them, so the gifts I gave them are justifiable. I will one day reclaim all the humiliation I have suffered today."
He will definitely let these people know his power, and he will definitely make them pay the price.
Lin Fengmian didn't see Gan Luo's presence, so he went outside to look for him. Unexpectedly, he found Gan Luo in a restaurant.
Lin Fengmian was stunned to see Gan Luo and Xin Ruyu eating there.
However, Lin Fengmian didn't say a word and stayed there silently.
Xin Ruyu served food to Gan Luo, and Gan Luo naturally did not object. The atmosphere between the two was very pleasant.
Gan Luo noticed Lin Fengmian's arrival, so he turned around and pulled Lin Fengmian to sit opposite him and eat.
Xin Ruyu was furious at that moment, never expecting that Gan Luo would actually pull Lin Fengmian to sit with him.
"Your Highness, there is something I don't understand. I wonder if Your Highness would be willing to explain it to me?"
Gan Luo simply told Xin Ruyu to say whatever he wanted to say, and that he would answer any question Xin Ruyu could answer.
"This Lin Fengmian is nothing more than a lowly guard, so why is he allowed to dine with Your Highness? It really makes me feel..."
Before he could finish speaking, Gan Luo stood up and went to another table, asking Lin Fengmian to sit there.
Gan Luo then had the waiter order the exact same dish as the one at the next table, and he and Lin Fengmian ate there alone.
Xin Ruyu suddenly realized that Gan Luo truly doted on Lin Fengmian. Why was that? Were the rumors true? In Gan Luo's heart, Lin Fengmian was someone he deeply loved.
Is it because he loves Lin Fengmian that Gan Luo has no intention of getting married?
If that's really the case, what should Xin Ruyu do next?
He must have been deep in thought here, pondering this and that, but ultimately couldn't come up with anything, and instead suddenly felt a headache coming on.
Gan Luo sensed Xin Ruyu's inner thoughts but ignored him because, to Gan Luo, Lin Fengmian was a special person.
Lin Fengmian sat opposite Gan Luo the whole time, not eating anything, but just sitting silently. Gan Luo asked Lin Fengmian, "Is it because the food at home doesn't suit your taste? If you don't like it, I'll take you to another place."
"No, it's just that I think what the prince said makes a lot of sense."
Gan Luo told Lin Fengmian directly that he had to eat whether he wanted to or not. At this point, Gan Luo added a lot of meat to Lin Fengmian's bowl, so much so that it couldn't hold any more.
Xin Ruyu, who was watching, must have been extremely envious.
He would be quite content if Gan Luo could treat him the way he treated Lin Fengmian.
He felt that Gan Luo would never treat him the way he treated Lin Fengmian, and Xin Ruyu felt a little sad at this moment.
The officials from the imperial court happened to arrive at the shop and saw Gan Luo and his group. Just as they were about to leave, Gan Luo called out to them.
"What? Am I disturbing your meal? You're trying to run away as soon as you see me."
None of them dared to say a word; they hurriedly turned around to explain to you.
They had no choice but to sit there, but they felt extremely uncomfortable. Then the waiter came over, and they must have been ordering food there.
They never expected Gan Luo to be here. If they had known, they wouldn't have come to this restaurant; they would have gone to the one next door. After all, they had things to discuss. Now that Gan Luo was here, their discussion was about how to deal with him...
What a small world! They sighed helplessly. They were also very afraid of provoking Gan Luo, because if they did, they would definitely suffer the consequences.
After all, they remembered Lin Shanbai's incident very clearly. The people who were there at the time described the scene, and they still found it terrifying.
After finishing his meal, Gan Luo sat there quietly, while the officials pondered whether he had any plans to leave or stay in this place.
"I'm thinking about something. Is Her Highness going to stay here indefinitely? If she really is going to stay here, how should we discuss these matters?"
One of the officials said this in a very low voice, but Gan Luo heard everything he said clearly.
Gan Luo immediately focused his gaze on the official from before. The official felt a chill run down his spine, turned around and met Gan Luo's gaze, then quickly turned his head away.
The official, in his panic, fell to the ground with a thud. Gan Luo then asked him, "Do I look like I'm going to eat people?"
After listening to what Gan Luo said, they all shook their heads, indicating that Gan Luo didn't seem like someone who could eat people.
The only feeling they got was that Gan Luo exuded a strong sense of oppression.
They all felt as if they were going to die in this place.
After all the dishes around them were served, they quickly ate and left in less than half an hour.
"It has to be said that Her Highness the Princess has really frightened them. After all, these officials usually eat here for several hours, but now they have all run away in less than half an hour."
"What kind of relationship do they have with me? It's nothing more than having a guilty conscience."
