256 Going to Tianxiang Restaurant Again

As Kong Rui walked, she felt like there was a pair of eyes staring at her.

However, when she looked around, she didn’t see anyone else.

Kong Rui became even more careful, since she didn’t want anything to go wrong at this time.

She stopped along the way. She originally planned to go to the Hua family again, but she changed directions because of this secret stalker.

When she arrived at the entrance of the Tianxiang Restaurant, Kong Rui paused, as if waiting for something.

As soon as the waiter saw Kong Rui appear at the door, his expression froze. Then, he smiled and came forward. “Miss, you’re here. Please come in!”

With that, the waiter turned around and led the way for Kong Rui.

This time, the waiter brought Kong Rui to a relatively hidden corner table.

Kong Rui didn’t raise any objections as she sat down.

Not long after Kong Rui sat down, two young men in navy blue robes appeared at the entrance of the teahouse.

One of them held a sword in his hand, and the other held a saber. They stood at the door as they looked into the teahouse, as if they were searching for something.

When Kong Rui glanced at the two of them from the corner of her eye and saw that they didn’t find the person they were looking for, she asked the waiter a few questions and found a seat.

Kong Rui was stunned. These two didn’t seem to be looking for her. They weren’t the ones tracking her?

As Kong Rui was thinking, she saw a few burly men wearing animal skin clothes walk into the teahouse.

These people were with the woman wearing animal skin clothes Kong Rui had seen in the teahouse last time.

However, she didn’t know why these burly men, who didn’t seem to know much about tea, had come to Tianxiang Restaurant.

However, she was certain that these people were not the ones who had followed her just now.

If it was really these people, Kong Rui would have immediately sensed their background the moment they followed her.

Kong Rui was even more confused.

This person had followed him for so long, but he actually didn’t follow her into Tianxiang Restaurant?

Could it be that he was guarding outside and waiting for an opportunity to take action?

Just as Kong Rui was feeling puzzled, she heard a hearty laugh from outside the Tianxiang Restaurant.

The sound was very penetrating, and it even made one’s heart thump.

As the laughter became louder, a ragged old man appeared at the door of Tianxiang Restaurant.

The old man was dressed in rags and linen clothes. His hair was messy, and he looked like he had not washed it for a few years.

His arms and limbs were wrapped in rags.

As he carried a broken basket on his shoulder and a wine gourd with a missing handle on his waist, he even emitted a strong stench.

The customers at the tables near the door immediately looked disgusted.

The waiter arranged for the two men in animal skin clothes to sit at a table near Kong Rui. Then, he immediately went forward and stopped the old man. “Sir, this is a teahouse. You…”

“What? I can’t enter the teahouse? Does your teahouse have a rule that forbids guests from entering?” The old man ignored the waiter’s obstruction and walked in.

The waiter reached out again and glanced at the old man’s wine gourd. “Look, if you want to drink, there’s a wine shop at the right corner of the road. I guarantee you’ll be satisfied.”

“Who said I wanted to drink? I’m here to drink tea!” The old man said as he pushed the waiter away.

The waiter staggered a few steps after the old man’s push.

The waiter immediately lost his temper after being pushed by the old man. “Why did you push me?!”

The old man shook his head and said with a smile, “Kid, you’re too weak. You fell to the ground with just a light touch!”

After the waiter was pushed and even scolded, he was enraged. “Why are you being so unreasonable?! If you continue acting like this, I’ll send you to court!”

The old man said indifferently, “You’re so weak, but you’re quite hot-tempered! You have no tolerance or observation abilities. It must be hard on your boss to keep someone like you to solicit business!”

After the old man scolded the waiter, the waiter was so angry that his face instantly turned red. “Old man, don’t go too far! Although we’re open for business, we didn’t say that we wouldn’t hit troublemakers!”

“What? Do you think you can defeat me?” The old man snorted, his face filled with disdain.

The waiter was so angry that he immediately threw off the cloth on his shoulder and clenched his fists as he rushed towards the old man.
