Chapter 714: Golden II
"Good afternoon, everyone, I am the owner of Qingquan Cafe, and the situation just now is that our café has not been able to deal with it in time, which has affected everyone's mood, so I hereby announce that all the bills on all desktops today have been halved. ”
The woman slowly bowed to the many guests, which was regarded as an apology.
Although there were not many customers, everyone smiled and toasted in return.
Lu Sheng also smiled and raised his glass, and the little thing subsided, but when he finished drinking and was about to get up to leave.
A waiter approached softly and placed an invitation on his desk.
"Sir, tomorrow there will be a small coffee tasting here, and our boss will send an invitation to all the guests who insist on tasting the original taste of the coffee. If you are interested, you can come on time.
At that time, there will be a variety of precious coffee beans collected by the boss to display and taste, welcome to taste. ”
"Okay. Lu Sheng accepted the invitation, stood up and walked out of the café.
After being quiet for so many years, life is so calm that he is a little unaccustomed to it.
Lu Sheng no longer lived in the Dragon Cave, and it was given to the organization as a base camp to house a large number of subordinates.
He is now in the horizontal city not far from Dawn City, and has purchased a villa, and lives in it on weekdays.
There are many beggars in the city, and it is said that there has been a famine, a poor harvest, rising food prices, and an economic depression, which has caused many civilians to become beggars.
On the way back, Lu Sheng saw no less than three or four people, dying of hunger, lying motionless on the side of the road.
There were only a few wild dogs and wild cats waiting around. Just as they breathe, these vicious dogs and wild cats will rush up and feast on a frenzy.
Lu Sheng even saw a man holding a blue-faced baby in his arms.
The baby was dying, and his face was pale with hunger, and there was not a trace of blood on his lips.
From time to time, the carriages of the nobles were pulled through the middle of the street, splashing tiny specks of mud and falling on these poor begging men.
Everything looks like a sordid and chaotic medieval famine.
Lu Sheng has no extra compassion to help others, and he can control his power and not hurt them when he fights, which is already his greatest mercy to mortals.
As usual, he turned a street corner and passed a closed bookstore, when suddenly Lu Sheng heard a rapid sound of breaking wind flashing overhead on his right.
Immediately after that, several more sounds of breaking the air followed, and the tail caught up.
The sound of a baby crying could be heard in the air.
Lu Sheng paused, sensing that the five people who were chasing and fleeing quickly moved away, he ignored it, and continued to walk in the direction of home.
Although such a chase is rare, it is not the first time I have seen it. Horizontal City is already a mess.
Walking along the street, he soon reached the iron gate of the villa he had purchased.
According to the old practice, he should now take out the key, open the iron door and go in, let the butler prepare hot water and food, and then rest.
But now, Lu Sheng slowly stopped.
To the right of the iron gate of the villa, there is a recessed dark lattice on the stone pillar, which was originally used to place oil lamps for lighting.
But at this time, the oil lamp was gone, and in its place were a pair of bright and clear eyes.
There was no impurity in those eyes, and they were blank. Like the brightest stars and gemstones.
A baby.
A little baby who had just been stuffed into here, wrapped in the arms of the person who had just been hunted down.
In this environment of being hunted and killed, as long as this baby makes a cry, it is impossible to live and hide until now.
But the strange thing is that the baby waited until Lu Sheng returned to the door and found her, but he didn't cry.
Lu Sheng looked at the baby for a while.
"As fat as my son. His eyes suddenly calmed.
There was silence around, Lu Sheng calmed down for a while, slowly stretched out his hand, and took the baby out.
He touched the underneath it.
"It's a girl. Good girl. He complimented, "Since you are destined for me, then follow me." ”
The baby stared at him blankly, its eyes pure and clear, nothing.
Until she heard this, she suddenly hooked her mouth and smiled sweetly.

*************
Fifteen years later......
"My name is Lu Hongye, and I am the daughter of an ordinary small businessman. ”
"My father was a shop owner who dealt in antiques and other miscellaneous items. My mother left us at a very early age, leaving me and my father to live together. ”
"When I was 10 years old, my father told me that he had picked me up and thrown it out if I didn't obey.
Like other classmates and friends, my parents always like to use this trick to educate their children. ”
"When I was twelve, my father moved with me to Dawning City, hundreds of miles away. The antique business continues here. I also persuaded my father many times to find another one and not to delay his youth.
But my father was always silent, and then he staggered the subject. ”
"My father loved me very much, but I didn't want to be bound to himself because of this love. So...
I just wanted to ask, where in the city is there a glasses repairer? I accidentally crushed my glasses in the morning, and I couldn't find a place to repair them. ”
“.......”
Four-year class at Gerner College in Dawning City.
A group of students stared blankly at Lu Hongye who was telling a serious joke on the podium.
Originally, the homeroom teacher asked each new student to introduce themselves. After all, it is a newly formed special training class. But now.....
"Still no sense of humor. Lu Hongye was expressionless and slowly walked off the podium.
"An uninteresting world, an uninteresting life. She looked at the bewildered faces in front of the desk, and her heart was calm.
Obviously, when my dad told me this joke, I laughed so much that my stomach hurt, and now these people.... No sense of humor.
After a moment of silence, the head teacher coughed a few times and went on stage to ask the next student to introduce himself.
Lu Hongye was bored in class, listening to unnutritious content until the end of school.
As the sun sets, the streets and alleys are burned red.
Lu Hongye kicked Lu Sheng's pebble, carrying his schoolbag with one hand, ignoring the black and white plaid skirt school uniform he was wearing.
Occasionally, the long blonde hair was draped in front of her, and she impatiently tied it behind her back.
After swaying all the way, it finally took her half an hour to complete the journey in less than ten minutes.
I came back to the door of a small cottage that was a little old again.
Skillfully took out the key from his chest, opened the door and entered, and the housekeeper grandfather was carrying a kettle to water the garden.
"Hello Grandpa Hank. ”
"Hello Miss. The old butler smiled and nodded, and went on with his work.
Lu Hongye trotted all the way, and entered the living room in three steps and two steps, just in time to see the sofa in the living room, Dad was drinking coffee while reading the newspaper that had just arrived. The muscular lines of his body bulged high and bulged like rocks.
"Are you back?" Daddy put down the newspaper and frowned at Lu Hongye's loose skirt and clothes.
"What do I remember telling you?"
Lu Hongye clearly saw a cold light flashing in his father's eyes.
Her heart trembled, and then she realized that she had forgotten to sort out her appearance before entering the door, and quickly reached out to smooth out the corners of her dress and skirt to remove wrinkles.
"At school, do you still get along with your classmates in the new class?" Daddy nodded slowly and asked again.
"It's okay, it's okay. Lu Hongye laughed dryly. She has a fairly beautiful face, but she has a pair of sharp and straight sword eyebrows, giving people a neutral beauty with a sharp and heroic spirit. But now this neutral and beautiful face has a flattering smile.
"Go freshen up and finish your homework for the day. Daddy continued.
"Yes~~~," Lu Hongye replied in a helpless prolonged voice.
Since she was eight years old, she held on to a harp on a whim and never let go, a journey of practice that she regretted for the rest of her life began.
From the age of eight to the current age of fifteen. has experienced countless hardships and setbacks in the middle, and she wanted to give up many times, but with a harsh and cold father, giving up is a beating.
After many times, Lu Hongye resigned himself to his fate. An hour of practice every day is thunderous, and over the years, she has gradually developed a habit.
Quickly went up to the second floor, opened the door and walked into the bedroom.
Lu Hongye opened the curtains, opened the windows to let in, and then closed the door. I walked to the wardrobe and was about to open the door.
"Help!!!" suddenly a shrill voice came from the closet.
Lu Hongye was stunned for a moment, and slowly opened the wardrobe a crack.
With a bang, a blue shadow flew out of the crack in an instant.
"Help!" The shadow flew around and suddenly stopped on Lu Hongye's shoulder, gasping for breath.
"It's so dangerous, it's almost suffocated!"
Lu Hongye blinked his eyes and stared at this little thing.
"A golden... Little lizard?"
"I've finally found you, Your Highness Shar!" the little lizard spoke, with a look of vicissitudes of hardship on his face.
"Your Highness?" Lu Hongye was stunned, "Who are you?
She had heard of the existence of such spirit beasts and magic beasts.
"No! she didn't recognize the wrong person. Your Highness the Esteemed Shar, at last, after all these years, I have finally found you...."
In the room, I don't know when, there was actually a slender masked woman, the woman knelt on one knee, carrying two crossed short guns on her back, and her body exuded a faint fierce aura.
Lu Hongye blinked, stunned and didn't know what was going on.
"Your Highness, fourteen years ago, my subordinates were hunted down and killed, and you were placed in front of this family's house in desperation, so that you could escape.
Now that the calamity has passed, and the enemy is powerless to take care of it, only then will your subordinates have time to come and find you back. The masked woman said.
A lizard who can speak human words, a masked woman with extraordinary skills, and an epic legend that can sing and cry.
Half an hour later, the nervous Lu Hongye learned his true life experience from these two guys.
It turns out that she is the youngest princess of the legendary Golden Dragon Clan, and her father was the Golden Dragon King Tari who was betrayed and assassinated before.
Her mother was poisoned and died in the clan struggle, and now she is the only one left in the bloodline of the Dragon King clan.
And the Golden Dragon Clan is facing an unprecedented threat crisis. Only a group of bloodlines of the Dragon King can open the royal inheritance and find the hope of salvation.
Therefore, the lizard and the masked woman came to let Lu Hongye come forward to lead the forces of the Dragon King Clan and revive the Golden Dragon Clan.
"......" Lu Hongye listened to the story with a confused face. stared blankly at the lizard and the woman.
"Your Highness, hurry up and wait with me to go back! Time is urgent, and it will be too late to be late!" the woman said urgently.
"You're saying that I'm not born a mortal?, what kind of princess is the Golden Dragon King??" she said, pointing at herself.
"Not bad!"
"You also say that I was born with an incomparably powerful royal bloodline, infinite power, and amazing mana?" Lu Hongye pointed to himself and continued.
"Yes, Your Highness!" the two nodded hurriedly.
"You also said that I have a royal inheritance behind me, and I can't do it without my bloodline..."
"Lu Hongye, don't start practicing yet! I want to die, right!?"
A sudden roar of rage came from outside the door.
Lu Hongye's hair stood on end, and he almost jumped up from the bed in fright, and the sound shook the whole room.
"Know.... Got it! I'm practicing!!" she stammered in a loud response.
