Dragon Clan: Lu Mingfei Returns from Japan

Chapter 713 The Delayed Explosion of the Shura Field
However, the feeling of being stared at while walking on the street is still a bit too unpleasant.

In addition, Gulou East Street is not like the Summer Palace or the Forbidden City, which are historical sites. There is not much to see. It is just the kind of "old street" that will be commercialized and transformed into a street with ancient buildings in other cities in the future.

The only difference is that trendy street signs like "I miss you so much on Gulou East Street" or "The wind that misses you still blows to Gulou East Street" are not popular yet.

So after taking a group photo at Gulou East Street, a popular spot on the internet, the group quickly left and found a nearby coffee shop to enjoy the air conditioning.

The cafe waiter carried a tray and placed the drinks and desserts ordered by the group in front of Lu Mingfei and his companions one by one. He glanced at Lu Mingfei with a strange expression, then immediately looked away and walked away from the booth with the empty tray.

The reason the waiter was looking at Lu Mingfei strangely was obvious. It was because Lu Mingfei and six girls were crammed into a booth.

The booth seating was actually quite spacious, although booths are usually designed for two people per row. However, the girls were all quite slender, so even with three of them sitting together, it wasn't crowded. It was only with Lu Mingfei added that things became a bit cramped.

Lu Mingfei was sandwiched between Erii and Natsumi, while Zero sat at the far end of the row. The three former school beauties of Shilan Middle School sat in the seats opposite them.

Liu Miaomiao and Chen Wenwen huddled together, flipping through the photos they had just taken on their phones.

Su Xiaoqiang continued the previous topic, looking at Erii and asking, "Eri, do you remember what that person who said he was my uncle looked like?"

While ordering, Lu Mingfei asked Erii what the principal and Sakura Yabuki had done by bringing her to the capital so early. This was something Lu Mingfei had been concerned about.

Erii was also writing in her notebook, truthfully answering Lu Mingfei's questions. She told him that after arriving in the capital, she was given a physical examination and had also met Qiangqiang's uncle. Su Xiaoqiang was slightly startled after reading it.

Despite Sakura Yabuki's repeated instructions not to tell Sakura what she was doing after arriving in the capital, the kind-looking old headmaster never told her to keep it a secret from Sakura.

Besides, even if the principal told her not to tell Sakura, she would still tell him everything if Sakura asked. Although her brother said on the phone that she should listen to the principal and Ms. Sakura, she should listen to Sakura even more!
"Well... he's just a very ordinary-looking foreign man, I don't know how to describe him. He told me he's Qiangqiang's uncle,"

Erii, whose elbows were clearly siding with outsiders, ignored Sakura Yabuki's instructions in her mind while replying in her notebook.

Lu Mingfei looked at the words on the notebook and wondered if it was possible that Erii was also a foreigner...

"That must be my uncle."

Upon hearing Erii describe the other person as a seemingly ordinary foreigner, Su Xiaoqiang knew that it was indeed her uncle, Louis. She looked at Lu Mingfei beside her: "So, Uncle is in the capital now? He didn't even tell me he came to China."

"Maybe they didn't know you were in the capital too," Lu Mingfei replied.

This was, of course, just an explanation given to the young celestial maiden. Lu Mingfei knew that for the young celestial maiden to enroll in Kassel College, she first needed Louis's approval. As a member of the Kassel College board of directors, he was naturally well aware of his niece's whereabouts and couldn't possibly be unaware that she had already registered for the preparatory class.

The reason he didn't mention to the little fairy that he had come to China was probably because he had other important matters to attend to first.

But what exactly is it? It's even related to Erii.

After thinking for a moment, the only thing Lu Mingfei could think of was that the board of directors might be interested in Erii's identity, which was why the principal had specially brought Louis to see Erii.

Lu Mingfei was unaware that the vice principal and Charlotte had come with Louis.

"What kind of person is Qiangqiang's uncle?" Liu Miaomiao turned her head and asked curiously. She had also overheard Lu Mingfei and the others' conversation.

"Um……"

Lu Mingfei was momentarily speechless. Suddenly asked to describe him, he really couldn't quite put his finger on it. Just as Erii had said, he was a fairly ordinary middle-aged European man. You'd often brush past someone like that on the streets of Europe. That was roughly the feeling.

At this point, Su Xiaoqiang seized the opportunity to chime in: "He's a rich guy. If we get the chance, I'll take you guys to rip him off, and then I'll call him when we get back!"

"Rich person? Is he richer than Qiangqiang's family?" Chen Wenwen joined the conversation.

"Hmm... he's probably a bit richer than my family. My uncle has vineyards in the Douro Valley and Alentejo, as well as his own winery, and he makes his own wine every year. His wines are very expensive; the cheapest ones cost over a hundred euros a bottle! Wenwen, does your dad like red wine? I'll ask my uncle to send you a few bottles later."

"I drink a little occasionally... but no need, a bottle of wine costing several thousand dollars is a bit too expensive."

"That's too polite. What kind of relationship do we have..."

Judging from the tone of the little fairy, Lu Mingfei thought that those wineries belonged to her... Well, if it hadn't been Louis who inherited the Valentine family, but the little fairy's mother, then those vineyards and wineries of the Valentine family would really have been hers.

"Hey, is this the group photo we just took together?" Su Xiaoqiang, sitting next to Chen Wenwen, noticed the photo on her phone screen.

“Yes.” Chen Wenwen moved her phone in front of Su Xiaoqiang.

The photo was taken by a passerby. Several of them were gathered around the "Gulou East Street" sign, and Lu Mingfei was surrounded by them.

Su Xiaoqiang said with some regret, "The resolution of the photos taken with the phone is still a bit low. If I had known we were going shopping together this afternoon, I would have brought my digital camera with me this morning. But Wenwen, are you still using your old phone? Didn't the college give us all a new Nokia N95? Why didn't you change it?"

"Well... I did give him one, but changing phones is a bit of a hassle. I still have a lot of phone numbers of my junior high classmates saved on this phone, and a lot of photos in my album. If I change phones, I'll lose them all," Chen Wenwen said.

Su Xiaoqiang nodded and took out her red and white Nokia N73 from her pocket: "Me too. My phone is full of photos, and transferring data is too much trouble, so I've been using this old phone. It even fell into a river in Portugal once, but I couldn't bear to replace it. I bought this last year when I was traveling in Hong Kong. I bought this red and white one for myself and gave Mingfei the same black N73."

"Oh, so you liked Mingfei back then, Qiangqiang? And you even gave him a matching couple's phone." Chen Wenwen blinked and said teasingly.

Su Xiaoqiang blushed and then stammered in rebuttal: "No, no! I wasn't even familiar with this guy back then, okay? It's just that he didn't have a cell phone at the time, and sometimes if I wanted to contact him, I had to use QQ, which was a huge hassle. I was also planning to get a new phone, so I just bought him the same model as a gift... It wasn't on purpose!"

Even though her relationship with Lu Mingfei has progressed rapidly to the point of being seamless, she still unconsciously becomes a little arrogant when talking about the past. Lu Mingfei thought to himself that even the four most adorable female characters in the Rie Kugimiya series would have to admit defeat when they met the little goddess.

But when the topic of cell phones was suddenly brought up, a little doubt arose in Lu Mingfei's mind, as if he had forgotten something.

What have I forgotten...?
"Hey, Qiangqiang, you just said you bought Mingfei a Nokia N73?" Liu Miaomiao suddenly asked. Su Xiaoqiang nodded naturally: "Yes, it's the one he's using now."

"..."

Lu Mingfei was taken aback; he realized he had forgotten something.

Before he could even speak, Liu Miaomiao continued, "Strange... I also gave Mingfei a Nokia N73, just like the one you gave me, it's black too."

Su Xiaoqiang was taken aback: "? Miaomiao, when did you send this?"

"What about you, shortly before the start of the first year of high school?"

"It was around August, before the start of the school year."

As they talked, the two girls suddenly fell silent.

"I...I suddenly need to go to the restroom, junior sister, please get up and make way for me."

"Oh dear, senior brother, no, my legs are suddenly numb and I can't stand up."

Lu Mingfei, unusually, stuttered again due to nervousness. Xia Mi, who had been watching the drama unfold, didn't get up to make way for Lu Mingfei. She claimed her legs were numb, but her slender, long legs swayed back and forth. Her hands supporting her chin, and her mischievous grin, made her seem like she wanted to stir up trouble.

"..."

Lu Mingfei thought to himself, "Junior sister, your legs are numb, right? Tonight, your senior brother will lift your legs and help you move your meridians."

Turning around, two pairs of beautiful eyes were already looking over at him. One pair was originally gentle and the other was fierce, but now they were both stern and sharp, staring at Lu Mingfei in unison.

"Mingfei, don't you need to explain this situation?" Liu Miaomiao and Su Xiaoqiang said with a smile, speaking in unison.

Lu Mingfei never expected that the catastrophe that Miaomiao and Xiaotiannv planted when they delivered the phone would explode now, so long later.

Fortunately, Miao Miao and Xiao Tiannv are now his girlfriends, so no matter how much this chaotic situation explodes, it won't get too badly resolved.

Lu Mingfei had no choice but to briefly explain the cause and effect of this coincidence to the girls.

However, this explanation was clearly not enough to appease the little fairy. Su Xiaoqiang pouted and said, "Then why didn't you just tell me and Miaomiao directly back then? You kept it from us for so long. If I hadn't mentioned it by chance today, Miaomiao and I would still be kept in the dark by you."

"If I had told you directly, Little Fairy, that Miaomiao had also given me the same phone, wouldn't you have been jealous?"

Su Xiaoqiang choked on her words. Indeed, after all, she hadn't accepted Mingfei's proposal for a "mutual relationship" at the time.

If she knew that another girl had also given Mingfei a phone, and even the same model, she would definitely make a scene and demand that Mingfei return her old one. Then, a few days later, she would give Mingfei a newer and more expensive phone, forcing him to use the new phone she gave him... even if the girl who gave Mingfei that phone was Miaomiao.

In retrospect, it was indeed the best choice for Mingfei to keep this a secret. After all, the phones that he and Miaomiao gave Mingfei were the same model, so it was impossible to tell who gave him the phone.

No! Doesn't this practically admit that she fell for Mingfei the moment she gave him the phone?!

Seeing Su Xiaoqiang suddenly bite her lip and fall into deep thought, Lu Mingfei secretly breathed a sigh of relief. Just when he thought he had finally overcome this hurdle, Liu Miaomiao suddenly spoke up and asked:

"Mingfei, is the Nokia N73 you're using now the one that Qiangqiang gave you, or the one that I gave you?"

Lu Mingfei: "..."

Send a proposition.

A fatal question is like a coin toss game you play with the devil. If you flip it heads, you'll be burned at the stake; if you flip it tails, you'll be hanged. Either way, you're going to die.

Lu Mingfei had no idea how his harem could be in such disarray, even though he had unlocked all the various CGs for his conquests. It was simply unbearable!
To be honest, he initially used the phone given to him by Xiaotiannv. Later, when he rescued Jiude Mai in Nibelungen, the phone Xiaotiannv gave him accidentally got rained on and broke, so he switched to the one given to him by Miaomiao. But if he says that, then if Miaomiao were to say something like, "So I was just a candidate for Qiangqiang after all," it would be another life-or-death question for Lu Mingfei.

Before Lu Mingfei could figure out how to answer, Xia Mi, seemingly eager to stir up trouble, whispered, "I didn't expect Senior Brother's scumbag tendencies to surface so early. He's been two-timing me ever since he first met Senior Sister Qiangqiang..."

"Scumbag," Su Xiaoqiang said, biting her lip.

“Scumbag,” Liu Miaomiao chimed in.

"Scumbag." Chen Wenwen, a bystander, smiled and joined the condemnation.

“Scumbag.” Zero said in a cold tone.

Seeing that Ling was also joining the Little Fairy and the others in calling herself a scumbag, Lu Mingfei paused for a moment, thinking to himself, "Ling, why are you also accusing me of being a scumbag along with the Little Fairy? I haven't even had a chance to be a scumbag to you yet..."

Hmm. Doesn't saying that mean I'm planning to become a scumbag/zero someday?
At that moment, Lu Mingfei suddenly saw Erii put down her phone, lean on the table, and pick up a pen to write in a small notebook.

Lu Mingfei was taken aback, thinking to himself, "Does even the obedient Erii have to join her junior sister, Little Fairy, in calling me a scumbag...?"

Then I saw Erii put down her pen and hold up her notebook in front of me.

“Sakura just texted me and said she’ll be here soon. She asked where I am and asked me to send her my address.”
