Lu Mingfei starts from Douluo

Chapter 109 A Man Burdened by Sin

Lu Mingfei is a night owl.

The slogan "Early to bed and early to rise makes you healthy" has been repeated in our ears for over a decade, but in this world where Soul Masters don't even need to sleep, it's clearly a fallacy.

In the past, during summer vacation, he would often sneak off to internet cafes at night. He could stay up all night for ten yuan right at midnight, a luxury he couldn't enjoy during the school year.

Although he inevitably has dark circles under his eyes during the day and is listless and needs to catch up on sleep, it's summer vacation now, and his uncle and aunt are unlikely to pay for him to attend extracurricular classes at the Children's Palace to fill his vacation time, so they simply let him do as he pleases.

However, in this world without StarCraft and the Internet, a night owl can only be a simple night owl, literally meaning a carnivore that actively goes out to hunt.

For Lu Mingfei, late-night snacks are even more important than three meals a day.

On the balcony dining table, the aroma is irresistible. You can see the deliciously caramelized pork ribs, with their marbled fat and lean meat, and the fat flowing through the gaps in the muscle fibers. Various seasonal fruit and vegetable salads are also on display, each with its own vibrant color.

The hotel has gone to great lengths to cater to the tastes of its guests, offering more than twenty different sauces and providing not only knives and forks but also silver chopsticks in the corners of the room.

Zhu Zhuqing had once heard Ning Rongrong say that Lu Mingfei could eat as much as a pig. She used to think it was just a figure of speech, but now she realized that Lu Mingfei could eat much more than a pig.

However, this is also the reason for his strength. He can eat so much food, but his body is still lean, which is enough to prove that his consumption is much greater than that of ordinary soul masters.

With a flash of silver light from his knife and fork, Lu Mingfei cut off a large piece of roast meat and put it into his mouth.

Of all things, eating is the most important. If it weren't for the two children in front of him, he wouldn't need a knife and fork; he would have just used his hands.

Ning Rongrong and Zhu Zhuqing originally only wanted to sit down and chat with Lu Mingfei for a few more minutes before leaving, since it wasn't good to stay away from their seats for too long.

But perhaps because of today's battle, or perhaps because Lu Mingfei was eating so deliciously, Ning Rongrong and Zhu Zhuqing couldn't help but pick up their knives and forks.

Having someone to eat with is actually a very pleasant thing; appetite and mood are the same thing, both can be contagious.

Previously, they had undergone physical training by the master, and although they worked themselves to the bone and ate a lot every day, the feeling was completely different from what they feel now.

Eating is not just about filling your stomach and replenishing your energy; it's also a pleasant experience.

"Try this, it has cartilage," Lu Mingfei, a seasoned food connoisseur, recommended.

Zhu Zhuqing nodded politely and took a bite with Ning Rongrong, unable to help but smile.

"And this piece melts in your mouth; it's even better dipped in this tangy sauce to cut through the richness." Lu Mingfei was busy sharing the food, thoroughly enjoying himself.

Moonlight, delicious food, and... a long-lost warmth.

Zhu Zhuqing suddenly felt a lump in her throat, and a familiar yet strange sense of peace welled up in her heart. She couldn't remember the last time she had felt this way.

Perhaps only before her martial spirit awakened, when Zhu Zhuyun was still that gentle older sister.

But after she awakened her martial spirit at the age of six, everything changed. Zhu Zhuyun looked at her with cold eyes, and even her parents were no longer close to her. Every banquet was filled with coldness.

"It's delicious, thank you."

"Eat more if it's good." Lu Mingfei said with a muffled laugh as he bit into the grilled meat.

After eating for an unknown amount of time, Lu Mingfei let out a satisfied burp, and Ning Rongrong and Zhu Zhuqing finally stopped eating as well.

Faced with Lu Mingfei's slightly awkward smile, the two little girls suddenly lowered their heads shyly. Unbeknownst to them, they had actually eaten so much.

"We're leaving now." Ning Rongrong quickly pulled Zhu Zhuqing aside and waved goodbye. She had eaten so much tonight, which was not ladylike at all.

Moreover, they've been gone for too long; it really wouldn't make sense for them not to come down soon.

"Goodbye." Lu Mingfei waved goodbye, finished another glass of juice, got up, stretched, and prepared to go back to his room to rest.

I need to buy a few more clothes first thing tomorrow morning. I'm going back to the Royal Academy, and I can't dress too poorly, or people will misunderstand that I came back because I couldn't make it outside.

The atmosphere at the welcome party downstairs wasn't cold or lively, but with Qin Ming mediating, nothing embarrassing happened.

Ning Rongrong and Zhu Zhuqing returned to the private room before it ended. Oscar and Dai Mubai almost went to look for them, but they breathed a sigh of relief when they saw the two of them return.

The welcome party came to a successful conclusion. Flander and Qin Ming discussed the arrangements for the entire school's trip to Tiandou City two months later, and Shrek Academy then left the hotel.

"Zhuqing, where did you go just now?" On the way back to the hotel, Dai Mubai couldn't help but frown and ask.

He noticed that when the two returned, their faces were actually a little flushed, which was quite unusual for Zhu Zhuqing, who was usually aloof and indifferent.

"Are we obligated to report this to you? This is our girls' secret." Ning Rongrong showed no respect for Dai Mubai. Teammates are teammates, but no one could accept Dai Mubai's accusatory attitude. So, she grabbed Zhu Zhuqing's arm and ran quickly: "Come on, Zhuqing, let's ignore him and go see if Xiaowu is awake yet."

Ning Rongrong knew that talking about going to see Lu Mingfei would not be a good thing. Their team was allergic to the mention of Lu Mingfei. Some people went crazy, some got angry, and some were so scared that their legs went weak. So there was no need to create trouble for herself.

Zhu Zhuqing nodded, not even glancing at Dai Mubai. She and Dai Mubai were just ordinary teammates, nothing more.

Dai Mubai was speechless for a moment, standing there stunned, watching the two girls' retreating figures, his face very unpleasant.

"Brother Dai, are you alright?" Ma Hongjun looked at the embarrassed Dai Mubai and chuckled.

"Get lost, you fatso!" Dai Mubai said irritably.

He thought he had been able to repair his relationship with Zhu Zhuqing after the master's special training, but when he was setting up tactics yesterday, Zhu Zhuqing still refused to use the Martial Soul Fusion Technique.

This was more important to him than the Soul Master Competition. If they couldn't use the Soul Fusion Skill, they would only face certain death. However, he had enough patience to prove his change to Zhu Zhuqing. It was impossible that Zhu Zhuqing would rather die than forgive him.

Zhu Zhuqing's unusual behavior today gave him a bad feeling, but he didn't dare to chase after her and ask any more questions. If he did, he might really have no chance to make amends.

Where can Ning Rongrong take Zhu Zhuqing?

Even a naive novice like Oscar could guess the answer to this question, let alone him. But what he had hoped to hear was for Zhu Zhuqing to frankly admit that she was just there to join in the fun.

The current situation is undoubtedly the worst.

He suddenly remembered the rumor about Lu Mingfei; perhaps it wasn't entirely unfounded. Wasn't Zhu Zhuqing now exactly like Zhu Zhuyun back then?

"So you're always targeting other people's fiancées, huh? Lu Mingfei, you deserve to die!"
