Chapter 546: Chapter 546: They’re Still a Child (First Update)
“Uh… pleased to meet you!” Yu Ran was somewhat baffled, not knowing who this man was, and could only look towards Shi Xueqing while pretending to be interested.
Shi Xueqing felt her face was losing face, and stomping her foot, she angrily said, “Ancestor master! This is my best friend!”
The implication was, couldn’t you show some decency?
Huyue, however, seemed unconcerned, “Since she is my disciple’s friend, that makes her half a disciple to me, too. How old are you this year, miss? How about I read your palm for you!”
Yu Ran instinctively took a step back, “No… no need!”
Shi Xueqing grabbed Yu Ran, “Don’t mind him, let’s go!”
After the two girls entered the main gate, Huyue stood in the same spot watching Yu Ran’s retreating figure, and said faintly, “Longing but unable to have, not even daring to hope? What kind of person could make you, such a pampered lady of the heavens, behave so humbly?”
The thing Huyue was best at was peering into people’s hearts, so he immediately noticed the frustration and sorrow knitted within Yu Ran’s brows.
Well, let it be, a young girl’s longing for love is the most normal thing in the world! Huyue thought to himself, with a smile following behind into the Yu Family’s residence.

Xue An, who was in the guest room playing games with An Yan, suddenly raised an eyebrow and turned his head towards the window.
“What’s wrong, hubby?”
“Oh, nothing!” Xue An smiled and turned back to continue playing the game.
Maybe he was just imagining things!
After all… how could that old fox possibly appear here?
“Xue Qing sis, have you eaten yet?” Yu Ran asked.
Just as Shi Xueqing was about to speak, Huyue, who knew not when he had come over, said,
“To be frank, my disciple and I haven’t eaten anything since last night. I wonder if your esteemed household has anything delicious to offer?”
By this time, Yu Ran had figured out that this seemingly frivolous man was indeed Shi Xueqing’s ancestor master.
Given this relationship, Yu Ran naturally held him in high respect and said with a slight smile.
“Of course, there is. Please follow me!”
With that, she turned and led the way.
Shi Xueqing, taking advantage of the moment, lowered her voice and said to Huyue, “Ancestor master, could you be a bit more dignified? We are here as guests; we can’t let others look down on us!”
Huyue nodded nonchalantly, “Disciple makes a good point! I will keep it in mind! Just watch me!”
Since the Yu Family had invited many guests this time, the kitchen was in operation 24 hours a day, and an entire building had been allocated for dining.
When Yu Ran led Huyue and Shi Xueqing into the dining area, the person in charge hurriedly came to greet them.
“Miss!”
“These two are my friends; they haven’t had dinner yet, please arrange something!”
“Of course!”
Then the person in charge turned to Huyue and Shi Xueqing with a smile, “Sir and madam, what would you like to eat? We have cuisines from Lu, Chuan, Yue, and Su, as well as Western, Chinese, and Japanese dishes. You may order anything.”
Huyue nodded casually, “That sounds quite good.”
The tone carried an air of aristocratic arrogance.
Even Yu Ran couldn’t help but be surprised; was this the same lecherous man who just had to read her palm a moment ago?
How had he changed so much all of a sudden?
The person in charge, for all his worldly experience, had never seen someone with an aura like Huyue’s, and his attitude became even more respectful.
“So, sir, what would you like to eat?”
Huyue sighed softly, “Since we are here, we should conform to the host’s arrangements. If I ask for too much, I reckon you wouldn’t be able to prepare it!”
“Yes, yes!” the person in charge nodded continuously, “Sir looks like one who has seen the world.”
“Well, then, let’s not make things difficult for you all. Just bring us five bowls of beef noodles for starters!” Huyue said lightly.
The atmosphere instantly became awkward.
Shi Xueqing covered her eyes, simply unable to watch.
The person in charge was stunned for a moment, then carefully asked.
“Sir, what did you say you wanted to eat?”
“Beef noodles! It’s just the type they sell on the streets, don’t you have it?”
“Ah, sure, sure, sure! Anything else you’d like?”
“Hmm… and a head of garlic.”
Everyone: “….”
Soon, the beef noodles were served.
One had to admit, the chefs the Yu Family had hired were quite skilled.
A simple bowl of beef noodles was made complete with color, scent, and taste, but more importantly, it was topped with several thick slices of beef.
However, Huyue remained seated without touching his chopsticks.
Manager: “Sir, is there anything else you need?”
Huyue gave him a glance, then gestured across his chest, “Where’s the napkin to tuck into my collar?”
“Huh? Oh, oh, oh, I’ll go get it for you now?”
Saying that, he brought over a dining napkin that one would use for a formal Western sit-down meal.
After receiving it, Huyue tied it around his neck and smiled elegantly, “Then I shall begin eating.”
With that, he lifted all the noodles from the bowl with his chopsticks and swallowed them in one gulp.
Then he choked so hard that his eyes rolled back, and hastily took a big gulp of the soup before finally catching his breath.
“The soup’s not bad, but the noodles are tasteless.”
Shi Xueqing covered her face, too embarrassed to look up, and silently criticized in her mind.
If you gulp down the noodles in one mouthful, of course, they won’t taste like much.
Only Yu Ran smiled faintly.
She found… Cousin Xue Qing’s ancestor was quite amusing.
Just as Huyue was wolfing down his noodles,
two girls walked into the restaurant.
The two girls, one older and one younger, were gorgeous—the older one around seventeen or eighteen,
and the younger one about thirteen or fourteen, both charming and lovely.
Such a pair naturally attracted many gazes as they appeared.
But Huyue was staring at the two girls with his mouth wide open, noodles dangling out, eyes shining brightly.
At that moment, the younger girl asked, “Dragon Sister, what would you like to eat?”
Indeed, the two girls who had arrived were Xiao Sha and Xiao Yu.
They had followed Xue An to Lingnan as well.
“Whatever’s fine!”
“Then let’s start with ten baskets of buns!” Xiao Yu said cheerfully.
Xiao Sha was silent for a moment, then somewhat helplessly said, “Do you really like buns that much?”
“Yep yep!” Xiao Yu nodded seriously, “I love buns so much, I suspect I was a bun in my past life.”
Xiao Sha: “….”
Meanwhile, Huyue couldn’t wait to swallow the noodles in his mouth and stood up, wanting to head over.
Shi Xueqing, of course, knew what her unreliable ancestor was about to do and quickly stopped him.
“Ancestor, please don’t make a scene, they are just teenagers!”
“Teenagers?” Huyue chuckled, “The ages of those two might just shock you to death if I told you!”
After saying that, he excitedly approached them.
At this time, Xiao Sha was pondering what to eat, but when she turned around, she found a man standing behind her, grinning and looking at her.
Xiao Sha was so startled she nearly jumped up, thinking how could this guy walk without making a sound?
Then she saw Huyue, smiling, who said, “Miss, let’s get acquainted, shall we?”
