“Mr. He, whom Father so highly praised before, why does he look… a bit indescribable?”
Ao Luoxi looked at He Xiuyuan’s hands full of food, her expression a little surprised.
He Xiuyuan, however, didn’t think much of it. While eating, he curiously asked Ao Qing next to him,
“Old Mr. Ao, just now, after this fog appeared, how did all the boatmen here know that the Dragon Lord had arrived? They even said that in the past, when fog appeared, the Dragon Lord would pass through the water, and if they didn’t move, their boats would be overturned. Is there such a thing?”
He Xiuyuan wasn’t questioning him; after all, what the boatman said was just a rumor, and one couldn’t just listen to one person.
He was just a little curious, so he asked further.
Ao Qing sat on the chair, originally intending to introduce his daughter to He Xiuyuan. Hearing He Xiuyuan’s words, he couldn’t help but recall, thought for a moment, and then shook his head.
“There shouldn’t be such a thing. I, this old Dragon, am not an unreasonable person.”
Ao Qing, hearing this, carefully recalled and confirmed that he had never done such a thing.
He Xiuyuan thought for a moment, “Then perhaps the fog was too thick, and the boatman hit something he didn’t see. After falling into the water, he inadvertently saw the true form of a Dragon and thought his boat was overturned by a true Dragon.”
Ao Qing wouldn’t lie about such a thing, so He Xiuyuan still believed Ao Qing.
However, what the boatman said might have some inaccuracies, perhaps just as He Xiuyuan suggested.
“That’s probably it.”
Ao Qing, hearing this, thought for a moment, nodded in agreement, and then dropped the topic. Instead, he directly pulled his daughter and spoke to He Xiuyuan.
“Oh, by the way, let me introduce you. This is my daughter, Ao Luoxi.”
“Come, greet Mr. He!”
Ao Qing pulled his daughter and introduced her to He Xiuyuan.
Ao Luoxi was also very well-behaved, “Mr. He!”
“Indeed, worthy of being the Dragon Lord’s daughter, intelligent and graceful.”
He Xiuyuan, hearing this, couldn’t help but size up Ao Luoxi for a moment before praising her.
Ao Luoxi’s appearance truly resembled a woman born from the essence of Heaven and Earth Spiritual Qi, her eyes exceptionally lively, exuding Spiritual Qi.
Ao Luoxi quickly replied modestly, “Mr. He, you flatter me. Father said that Mr. He is an extraordinary person, with unfathomable Dao, truly an Expert!”
As she spoke, she blinked her eyes, looking at He Xiuyuan with a gaze full of inquiry.
That’s what she said, and that’s what her Father told her about He Xiuyuan.
But now, looking at He Xiuyuan in front of her, no matter how she looked, she felt he was somewhat unlike the rumored Expert.
After all, what Expert would, upon meeting, be carrying more than ten kinds of snacks and eating non-stop?
He Xiuyuan, hearing this, waved his hand, “Don’t listen to your Father’s nonsense. I have only just begun to Cultivate not long ago. How can I be called profound in Dao?”
After speaking, He Xiuyuan noticed Ao Luoxi’s gaze continuously scrutinizing him, and repeatedly falling on the snacks in his hands.
Seeing this, He Xiuyuan immediately picked out a few snacks from his hand and offered them, “Here, have some?”
He Xiuyuan, seeing her repeatedly and cautiously observing him, thought she was also craving, so he shared some food, offering her a few items.
Ao Luoxi was stunned by this, then felt a bit exasperated.
Although she looked quite young, she was not that young in age. It was only due to the Dragon Clan’s long lifespan that she appeared very young.
The age of being fed with food like this had long passed!
…“Mmm mmm… So delicious! Mr. He, where did you buy this pancake? With one bite, the crust is so crispy, and then I taste the tender meat juice inside. It’s truly too fragrant, too delicious!”
Ao Luoxi lowered her head, eating the pancake in her hand, her small face full of astonishment.
With one bite, a crisp sound spread in her mouth, followed by countless crispy crumbs being continuously bitten open. The taste was truly delicious.
“Isn’t it? Now try the squab in your right hand. The skin is also extremely crispy, and the inside is very tender and delicious.”
He Xiuyuan smiled upon hearing this, then pointed to the snacks by her hand and said.
That small squab, with its skin roasted crispy but not tough, the heat was perfectly controlled, bringing out all its original flavor. It could be called a delicacy on earth.
Ao Luoxi’s eyes flickered upon hearing this. Her gaze immediately fell on her hand, and just as she was about to take it, she saw a large hand suddenly stretch out from the side.
Then the old Dragon opened his mouth wide, and that entire squab went into his mouth, followed by continuous crunching sounds at this moment.
Ao Luoxi was momentarily stunned by this, looking at her Father, evidently still not having recovered.
“Father!”
A moment later, Ao Luoxi finally reacted, looking at her Father with a hint of anger in her eyes.
How could he, at such an old age, still snatch food from his daughter?
Even if he had to snatch it, couldn’t he have left a leg for her to taste?
“Oh, it truly is delicious! No wonder Little Friend He, you enjoy traveling in the human world so much!”
The Dragon Lord, after a few bites, also spoke with surprise.
He Xiuyuan smiled and nodded, “This is indeed one of my hobbies. Otherwise, I wouldn’t have been immediately tempted by the Dragon Lord’s mention of a feast in the East Sea Dragon Palace with a unique flavor.”
He Xiuyuan’s words made the old Dragon laugh heartily, “If that’s the case, then when it’s my old Dragon’s birthday in the future, if I invite Little Friend He, Little Friend He must come!”
“Since the Dragon Lord says so, I will definitely be there!”
He Xiuyuan readily agreed.
Ao Luoxi, seeing this scene, looked sideways at the two, her small mouth slightly puffed out, eating the food in her hand bite after bite, her expression showing a hint of indignation.
Honestly, he snatched her food, and then acted as if nothing happened, chatting with others. He truly didn’t care about her at all.
Ao Luoxi was a bit sulky, but when her gaze fell on He Xiuyuan, there was also a hint of confusion in her eyes.
Was this truly the Expert her Father spoke of?
Why did he just look like someone who loved to eat particularly much?
It was just because the feast at the East Sea Dragon Palace tasted very good that he came along, and when he arrived, his hands were also full of food. It seemed to be true.
But did the feast at the East Sea Dragon Palace taste very good? She seemed to have forgotten a bit.
Ao Luoxi recalled in her mind.
However, after recalling, she had forgotten about it.
Because during her previous visits, she had always been scolded by those fellows, causing her to lose her mood. How could she have paid attention to what delicacies were at the feast?
