Immortality Cultivation Era

Chapter 628 Welcome Dinner

Having returned to Jiangnan City, Gao Ge feels that even the air in his hometown is fragrant.

Of course, this is only his feeling. After all, compared to Qiu City, the air quality in Jiangnan City is much worse.

To the surprise of Gao Ge and others, it is Yue Tuzhi who comes to pick them up at the airport.

Certainly, not only Yue Tuzhi but also Chen Wangshi whose hand is held by him comes.

The scene looks a bit weird, especially when Chen Wangshi is still struggling with a lollipop in her hand.

The scene of a big hand holding a small hand is supposed to be quite nice but Gao Ge can’t help but frown.

To be honest, he doesn’t trust Yue Tuzhi at all so when he sees Chen Wangshi’s hand is held by him, he starts to wonder whether he should stand in situ. He is not sure whether Chen Wangshi has been held hostage.

On the contrary, Yue Xincheng still strides forward with his eyes narrowed, saying, “Aren’t you supposed to be in Haicheng City now? Don’t tell me that you’ve graduated. You are not that talented.”

It does sound a bit harsh.

Yet, it is also quite consistent with the relationship between Yue Xincheng and Yue Tuzhi.

“I miss my home so I come back and have a look,” Yue Tuzhi says with a smile.

He still looks calm and composed.

Yue Xincheng nods his head and then drags Chen Wangshi over without any word, perhaps because he feels the same way as Gao Ge does. However, Yue Tuzhi just watches Yue Xincheng quietly, except that he has a playful glint in his eyes. Maybe he has seen through Yue Xincheng’s mind but he doesn’t directly point it out just in order to save face for him.

“The car is ready,” Yue Tuzhi says. “If you are not in a hurry, how about having dinner first?”

“Fine by me.” Yue Xincheng turns around to look at Gao Ge.

After Gao Ge nods, Yue Xincheng continues, “Lead the way.”

Yue Tuzhi, who sees their interaction, feels somewhat bitter but he still doesn’t say much as always. He just turns around and walks forward, letting Gao Ge and others follow him.

Walking next to Gao Ge, Shao Shuai whispers, “Who is this person?”

“Yue Tuzhi, Yue Xincheng’s brother by blood,” Gao Ge says with a glance at him.

“Brother?” Shao Shuai coughs and whispers. “He doesn’t look like that at all.”

Gao Ge doesn’t respond to him.

He still doesn’t understand why Shao Shuai has to follow them to Jiangnan City, but he can’t get rid of the latter regardless. Hence, he just lets Shao Shuai follow then. Anyway, in Gao Ge’s opinion, Shao Shuai can’t stay long despite his insistence on following. After spending some time together and hearing out Tang Jiusi’s description, Gao Ge knows that Shao Shuai’s position in the Shao Family is not low, or even very high, so the Shao Family will inevitably summon Shao Shuai back for the family affairs. They can’t allow him to idle around outside all the time.

When they get into the car, they find that the driver is a middle-aged man. Gao Ge has seen him before in the Yue Family’s house. This man is quiet and very close to Yue Tuzhi, so Gao Ge doesn’t feel like approaching him and socializing.

They don’t know Yue Tuzhi has booked a private book until they arrive at the destination and enter the hotel.

After they sit down, the dishes start to be served.

“I’ve been to this hotel a lot of times. I know the best dishes here, so I won’t ask for your opinions then,” Yue Tuzhi says with a smile.

His arrangement like this is more consistent with his usual style. Probably because as the master of the Yue Family, he is more or less into controlling every detail, he also doesn’t like asking for others’ opinions about the dishes. For one thing, that’s what he always does. For another, he probably feels it is more convenient. Gao Ge is okay with that. After all, he is not on good terms with Yue Tuzhi.

If it weren’t for Yue Xincheng, he wouldn’t bother to come here to have this meal.

“Was everything going well in Qiu City?” Yue Tuzhi speaks as soon as he sits down. When he finds that Gao Ge has glanced at him, he continues unhurriedly, “Anyway, I am a student of Haicheng Cultivation Academy now. I know something more or less.”

“It was okay,” Gao Ge says.

“Judging from your expression, it seems that things in Qiu City did go well but not your own business,” Yue Tuzhi says with narrowed eyes.

Gao Ge frowns.

He doesn’t like chatting with Yue Tuzhi.

Yue Tuzhi doesn’t say anymore. The liquor has been served. It is Wuliangye liquor.

“Would you like to have some?” Yue Tuzhi shakes the bottle in his hand and asks Gao Ge with his eyebrows raised, “Are you afraid that the liquor is poisonous?”

“Yeah. So, no, thank you,” Gao Ge says.

Yue Tuzhi’s action is stiffened.

Obviously, he is not very comfortable with the way that Gao Ge talks so frankly.

Seeing Yue Tuzhi appears a bit embarrassed, Yue Xincheng can’t help chuckling and saying, “If you want to pour the liquor, just do it. Why did you have to say anything? You are embarrassing yourself.”

Yue Tuzhi coughs, smiles away his embarrassment and begins to pour the liquor.

Shao Shuai looks at Gao Ge and Yue Xincheng, and then glances at Yue Tuzhi.

Somehow, the atmosphere is a bit weird.

It goes without saying that there must be some stories he doesn’t know.

It seems that he also has something to do in Jiangnan City.

For example, he can find out the stories.

Is it a distortion of human nature or moral decay?

“Gao Ge, the first toast shall go to you. If it weren’t for you, my family wouldn’t be the only ancient martial arts family in Jiangnan city,” Yue Tuzhi stands up and says with a glass of liquor in his hand.

Gao Ge is a little unhappy.

Yue Tuzhi was telling the truth indeed.

However, in this case, it doesn’t sound like his gratitude for Gao Ge.

It is more of a taunt.

He seems to be saying to Gao Ge, “See? You don’t like me and I even schemed against you before indeed. So what? You’ve done so much but I am the one who gets the benefits.”

Whether Yue Tuzhi means it or not, what he said is really displeasing under such a circumstance.

“Yue Tuzhi, what do you want to say?” Yue Xincheng shouts. “Are you bragging? Is the Yue Family really the only ancient martial arts family in Jiangnan City? Maybe no one will be left.”

Yue Tuzhi is speechless.

Yue Xincheng’s words are clearly intimidating!

If it were Gao Ge who said that, he wouldn’t feel anything about it.

However, it seems a bit weird to hear Yue Xincheng say so.

“Actually, I think Yue Xincheng is right. Maybe your family is the only ancient martial arts family in Jiangnan City, but who knows whether a cultivation school will appear here?” Gao Ge says with a smile.

Yue Tuzhi is taken aback for a moment and suddenly becomes lost.

His eyes flicker, and deep inside...

He is somewhat excited!
