Reincarnated Rock Prince, you're saying this is Douluo Continent?

Chapter 45: Girl, you've been fooled by this old man!
Just then, a petite figure appeared at the entrance of Huo's Grilled Fish Restaurant.

Her body floated in the air, a trace of syrup on the corner of her mouth, and she smiled as she said, "Brother Beibei, Miss Tang Ya, Brother Huo Yuhao, Paimon is here to patronize your business again!"

Hello Paimon!

Upon hearing this voice, even Huo Yuhao, who was roasting a lamb, looked up and replied to Paimon.

This little guy is the martial spirit of the Martial God, so he deserves the respect due to him, even if the other party doesn't care.

"Wow, what's that? It smells so good!"

Paimon's eyes lit up, and he flew to Huo Yuhao's side, asking a question.

"Paymon, these are the whole roasted lambs for those two guests. If Paymon likes them too, I can roast one for you for free!"

Huo Yuhao said calmly.

Upon hearing this, Paimon rubbed his hands together, a hint of flattery on his face, and said, "Really? Brother Huo Yuhao, you're so kind!"

For Paimon, having free food was simply fantastic.

As for social etiquette and such, she didn't understand them and was quite confused.

In Paimon's dictionary, there is no such word as "social skills".

"of course it's true!"

Huo Yuhao said with a serious expression, then said to Tang Ya beside him, "Sister Xiaoya, slaughter another sheep."

"Hmph, even Xiao Yuhao is ordering his older sister around now."

Tang Ya said with a smile, then walked towards the kitchen.

Even if Paimon comes to eat every day and it's free every day, so what?
Compared to the kindness shown to that lord, what are these gold soul coins?
Paimon didn't understand, but they could only use this insignificant thing to repay a small debt of gratitude.

When Barbatos saw Paimon arrive, his eyes twitched slightly. He had planned everything, but he had overlooked this little guy.

He shifted his chair slightly, turning his back to Paimon.

Once this little guy has eaten something, he should leave...

The store became busy again, and Paimon couldn't offer much help, so he found a seat and sat down.

While looking for a seat, she subconsciously glanced at Zhong Li and Xiao Xiao.

She had met Xiao Xiao once before, so naturally she couldn't forget her.

As for the "boy" sitting next to Xiao Xiao, Paimon felt something was off about him!
It seems that there is some kind of connection with this "young man", just like the connection with Zhongli... no, it should be said that it is exactly the same!
After a moment's thought, Paimon flew to Xiao Xiao's side, where she could see the boy's appearance clearly.

"Miss Xiao Xiao, hello there! It's been a long time!"

Hearing this, Xiao Xiao was pleasantly surprised. She didn't expect that Zhong Li's martial spirit would still remember her!
Hello, Paimon!

Xiao Xiao stood up and greeted Paimon.

"Paimon, are you looking for a seat? We have plenty of space here, why don't you join our table?"

Xiao Xiao extended a warm invitation.

Without the slightest hesitation, Paimon sat down opposite Zhongli at Xiao Xiao's invitation and asked, "Miss Xiao Xiao, who is this handsome young man?"

Upon hearing this, Zhongli couldn't hold back any longer; his hand under the table trembled slightly.

Fortunately, he has experienced almost everything over the years, and even if his identity is exposed, he doesn't care.

As long as you are not embarrassed, it is others who are embarrassed.

"His name is Barbatos, and he's a bard!"

Without a second thought, Xiao Xiao introduced Paimon directly.

"what?"

Paimon stared wide-eyed at Zhongli in disbelief.

"Barbatos, the bard?"

"Yes, Paimon, Barbatos is very talented!"

Xiao Xiao explained.

Paimon's eye twitched slightly. If she still didn't know who the person in front of her was, then she would truly be a fool.

No wonder, no wonder she could sense that connection with Zhongli in the "boy" before her. She did know what Barbatos looked like.

"Young lady, you've been fooled by this old man!"

Paimon knew a lot about Zhongli's deeds, so she did not expose Zhongli's disguise.

To Paimon's utter surprise, Zhongli would use the name Barbatos...

Thinking about it carefully, Barbatos also imitated Zhongli's handwriting to sign his name, so it's reasonable for Zhongli to use his name to travel across the continent, right?
They really are a pair of good... well, you know... friends...

"Paimon, hello. I am Barbatos. Nice to meet you. Please take care of me."

Zhongli stood up, bowed slightly to Paimon, and said.

Paimon: "..."

"Ha...ha, Paimon loves bards the most, he'll definitely take care of them, he'll definitely take care of them!"

Paimon's eyes twitched, his acting was terrible, but Xiao Xiao, Bei Bei, and Huo Yuhao didn't notice.

After learning Barbatos's identity, Paimon became much more relaxed and started chatting with Xiao Xiao casually, as if he didn't even see the bard.

Although I don't know why Zhongli did this, there must be some deeper meaning behind it.

About fifteen minutes later, the first whole roasted lamb was finally ready. Beibei, with a smile on her face, carried the whole roasted lamb to Zhongli's table.

"Paymon, your whole roasted lamb will take a while to arrive. Let's eat together!"

Xiao Xiao took the initiative to invite him.

Paimon accepted the invitation without hesitation.

"Thank you, Miss Xiao Xiao!"

"Let's all eat together when Paimon's whole roasted lamb comes up!"

Paimon doesn't understand social etiquette, but she knows that good food should be shared.

Besides, even Paimon couldn't finish such a big roasted whole lamb!
We can't finish it, we simply can't finish it!

After exchanging pleasantries, the three of them began to enjoy the whole roasted lamb.

"Your cooking is perfect, and the cumin is the icing on the cake. Boss, your skills are excellent."

After tasting it, Zhongli gave his evaluation.

Huo Yuhao controlled the timing of the fire using his mental power, which might seem like cheating, but it was ultimately his own ability.

Upon hearing this, Huo Yuhao was slightly taken aback, then turned to Zhongli and said, "Thank you for your comments, guest!"

Huo Yuhao was quite pleased with the positive feedback from the diners.

It's like doing something diligently and receiving recognition from others.

"delicious!"

Paimon said as he ate.

These two simple words contain countless profound meanings.

This is the most positive evaluation from "diners"!
When the second whole roasted lamb was served, Paimon rubbed her stomach; she really couldn't eat anymore.

It may taste delicious, but not being able to eat it is another matter.

Zhongli and Xiaoxiao didn't lift a finger either; one whole roasted lamb was enough for the three of them, so there was no need to roast a second one.

"Brother Huo Yuhao, Brother Bei Bei, Miss Tang Ya, there aren't many customers right now, why don't you come and eat too!"

Seeing this, Paimon, not wanting to waste food, took the initiative to invite Huo Yuhao and the other two.

Yes, currently there are only three customers in the shop: Xiao Xiao, Zhong Li, and Pai Meng. After roasting the second lamb, the three of them had some free time again.

Hearing this, the three of them didn't stand on ceremony and moved their chairs to sit down around Paimon and the others.

Suddenly, Paimon seemed to have thought of something and said to Zhongli sitting opposite him, "Lord Barbatos, you are a bard, could you play a piece for us?"

Zhongli: "..."
