Watching Li Changqing and Li Bo escape from the scene as if fleeing, the entire Oroma Restaurant erupted in thunderous applause. Everyone was clapping vigorously, deeply approving of Lu Yu's actions just now.
Initially, people inherently disliked soone like Li Bo, a wealthy second-generation. Coupled with his arrogant deanor earlier, this made most of the onlookers feel incredibly angry.
But Lu Yu's actions just now allowed everyone to vent their anger, which is why they applauded so passionately.
Listening to the thunderous applause around, Lu Yu smiled slightly at this mont. He then waited for the applause to die down, waved to a nearby waiter, and said, "Order!"
"Are you really going to eat here?"
Seeing Lu Yu's actions, ng Yue exclaid in astonishnt, "Do you know how expensive the Western food is here?"
"How expensive could it be? Besides, it's alti now, and we can't just starve, right?"
Hearing ng Yue's words, Lu Yu responded indifferently, his words filled with a calm attitude, "Moreover, I'm treating my girlfriend to dinner, no matter how expensive; it's worth it!"
"Get lost! Who's your girlfriend?"
Hearing Lu Yu's words, ng Yue rolled her eyes and then retorted, her face displaying a slight blush and a hint of shyness.
"Aren't you my girlfriend?"
Lu Yu replied in bewildernt, his words filled with a matter-of-course tone: "Just now, you were holding my arm so obediently. How co you're denying it now?"
"I'll deny it if I want to, what can you do about it?"
At this mont, ng Yue said to Lu Yu, forcing herself not to laugh but still revealing a charming smile.
Though she didn't admit it, ng Yue felt incredibly warm inside. Lu Yu's words and actions just now greatly pleased her, making her heart inevitably swell with a sweet feeling.
"Alright, deny it if you want, but we still have to eat."
Hearing ng Yue's response, Lu Yu laughed, shook his head, and said with a hint of helplessness in his tone.
...
anwhile, in a lavish estate in New York City.
This estate covers a vast area, terrifyingly large, a rarity in the densely occupied New York City!
At the top of the estate, a flag flutters, bearing a unique emblem that resembles both a fla and a dragon head, identical to the pattern Lu Yu previously saw on his computer!
This is the legendary Jin Family!
In the expansive garden of the Jin Family, a man dressed in white sits in a rocking chair, with a white cat resting on his lap, creating an exceptionally harmonious scene.
This man is Jin Qingyun, the head of the Jin Family!
"Master, Luo Tong has returned and wishes to et you now."
At this mont, a sturdy butler slowly approached Jin Qingyun and said calmly, "This ti, he says he has sothing very important to report!"
"Oh? Luo Tong?"
Upon hearing the butler, Jin Qingyun's eyes showed a hint of amusent: "Isn't he the one in charge over in Lin'an? As far as I rember, we don't have any significant interests there. What important news could he have for ?"
"I don't know."
The butler replied to Jin Qingyun, "But I did hear him ntion the Lu Family in Lin'an!"
The Lu Family!
As soon as those words were out, Jin Qingyun's entire deanor froze instantly. He squinted his eyes at the butler, asking, "Are you sure he ntioned the Lu Family?"
Jin Qingyun's face no longer held the previous peaceful aura; instead, his eyes were now piercingly sharp.
"Yes."
Hearing Jin Qingyun's words, the butler responded calmly.
"Let him in!"
Upon hearing the butler, Jin Qingyun coldly ordered, his words filled with a serious tone.
Clearly, Jin Qingyun is very interested in the Lu Family.
"Yes."
Upon hearing Jin Qingyun, the butler nodded and slowly exited.
Monts later, Luo Tong, led by the butler, slowly arrived in front of Jin Qingyun.
At this mont, Luo Tong, clad in a black, sleek outfit, appeared exceptionally agile. Upon reaching Jin Qingyun, he knelt on one knee and said, "Greetings, Patriarch."
"Rise!"
Hearing Luo Tong, Jin Qingyun waved his hand slightly and said, "Luo Tong, I heard you have news about the Lu Family in LA City?"
"Yes."
Hearing Jin Qingyun's words, Luo Tong said, "Patriarch, the Lu Family from back then is not extinct. Lu Yu is still alive and has undergone a trendous transformation compared to five years ago!"
"Oh?"
Upon hearing this, Jin Qingyun squinted his eyes and asked, "What kind of transformation?"
"Lu Yu, with his current strength, should be on par with . I suspect that the Lu Family couple secretly preserved a potion back then and gave it to this Lu Yu!"
Luo Tong spoke decisively, his words filled with certainty!
Hiss!
Upon hearing this, Jin Qingyun took a deep breath, his eyes shining brightly as he said, "Are you sure?"
"I am eighty percent sure!"
Luo Tong responded, "Otherwise, how could soone considered a wastrel five years ago suddenly have a strength comparable to mine? I almost got caught by him last ti!"
"If that's the case..."
Upon hearing Luo Tong's words, Jin Qingyun continued, "Luo Tong, return to LA City and observe Lu Yu's every move. If possible, capture him directly!"
"The Lu Family couple destroyed all the data on the potion before I could act. If Lu Yu indeed took the last vial, he must be captured alive, and his blood extracted for continued research on the potion!"
Jin Qingyun's words were filled with coldness, and his face showed unabashed greed!
"Yes! I will do my utmost to complete this task!"
Hearing Jin Qingyun's words, Luo Tong bowed deeply and replied respectfully.
