Chapter 175 Meeting an Acquaintance in the Capital City

The more Elder Feng interacted with Ge Dongxu, the more he realized the young junior brother's composure and calmness, which increased his respect for Dongxu's thoughts. Therefore, seeing that he currently did not want to pursue the matter, and knowing he had his reasons, Elder Feng nodded in agreement and did not bring it up again.

After that, Elder Feng also reminisced about the times he spent with Ren Yao.

Listening to Elder Feng's memories, imagining how in the past his master wandered the lands as a healer with a heart to save lives and wielded his sword against enemies with the valor of a hero, Ge Dongxu couldn't help but shed tears.

An old man and a young man, their talk lasted from noon until evening.

Elder Feng, after all, was a man approaching ninety, and although Ge Dongxu had helped remove a significant amount of cold energy from his body, he was still frail and began to feel tired by evening.

Seeing the old man's weariness, Ge Dongxu was about to get up to leave when a young man walked in from outside.

The man, probably around twenty-eight or twenty-nine years old, had an average appearance, and was just over 1.7 meters tall, but was well-dressed, walked with a straight back, had bright eyes, and carried himself with a composed and calm demeanor.

As the man walked in and saw that Elder Feng was not sitting in a wheelchair and had no blanket over his legs and appeared to be in good spirits, his eyes couldn't help but show a trace of excitement, but he quickly composed himself and walked up to Elder Feng, respectfully saying, "Grandfather!"

"Ah, you've come," said Elder Feng, nodding slightly before pointing to the young man and telling Ge Dongxu, "Dongxu, this is my eldest grandson, Feng Chenqing."

After the introduction, Elder Feng turned to Feng Chenqing, his expression serious, and said, "Chenqing, this is Ge Dongxu, your grandfather's junior brother. By relation, you should address him as your grand-uncle master. But seeing that you'd likely prefer keeping face and wouldn't be willing, I won't force you. You can just call him by his name like your aunt does, but remember in your heart that Dongxu is your grandfather's junior brother and you should not disrespect him."

"Yes, Grandfather, my aunt has already told me before coming!" Feng Chenqing said respectfully, nodding his head, then turned to Ge Dongxu and bowed deeply, saying, "Thank you for treating my grandfather's illness."

"Your grandfather is my senior brother, it was my duty," Ge Dongxu replied with a smile.

"Dongxu, today as senior and junior brothers we meet, I should have shown you the hospitality due from a host and taken you around to see the sights. However, as you know, with these old bones and my status, it's inconvenient for me to move around, and being young, you might not enjoy your time fully with an old man like me around. So earlier, I asked Jiahui to call Chenqing over. He will take my place to accompany you tonight for a stroll and to dine at a specialty restaurant. Tomorrow is the weekend, don't be in a hurry to go back; let him accompany you around," Elder Feng said.

"There's no need for such trouble, Senior Brother, I can just wander around by myself," Ge Dongxu hastily said.

"What are you saying? You are my junior brother, and it is only right for these younger generations to show such affection," Elder Feng replied.

"Then I'll just have to trouble Chenqing," Ge Dongxu said with a smile.

"It's my duty, my duty," Feng Chenqing hurriedly replied. There was no way around it; even though he was young, how could he dare put on airs in front of his grandfather's junior brother?

Seeing his reaction, Ge Dongxu no longer held back and got up to say to Elder Feng, "Then, Senior Brother, rest early. Tomorrow, I will work on your meridians again."

"No need to expend your cultivation power anymore, I am already feeling much better, much better," Elder Feng replied, moved.

"It's no trouble, I am young now, and the energy spent quickly returns," Ge Dongxu said with a smile, then left the courtyard accompanied by Feng Chenqing.

Once outside the courtyard, Ge Dongxu noticed Feng Chenqing's expression had significantly relaxed, and couldn't help but privately reflect that being born into a wealthy family was not easy.

Although his expression had relaxed, Feng Chenqing, mindful of his grandfather's instructions, did not dare to neglect Ge Dongxu. Upon reaching where the car was parked, he made it a point to personally open the car door for Ge Dongxu, then opened the driver's side door and got in.

Fortunately, this scene was not witnessed by people from Feng Chenqing's usual circle; otherwise, their jaws would have dropped.

When had Feng Chenqing, one of the capital's Crown Princes, ever been so humble as to open a car door for a younger man?

"Dongxu, where shall we go?" Feng Chenqing asked after they had gotten into the car.

"I'm not familiar with the capital either, you make the arrangements," Ge Dongxu said.

"Alright, I'll take you to eat first, then show you around," Feng Chenqing responded upon hearing this.

"That works, thank you," Ge Dongxu nodded politely.

"You really shouldn't be so formal with me. You are my grandfather's junior, I'm in no position," Feng Chenqing hastily said.

"Haha, we each have our own roles, no need to be so formal," Ge Dongxu laughed.

Feng Chenqing smiled upon hearing this but dared not continue the topic. Ge Dongxu could say this, but it wasn't something he could casually mention.

As the saying goes, a monarch's words carry weight, law follows the utterance! Although his grandfather was not an ancient monarch, his words weren't taken as law to such an extent, but he had been one of the few leaders at the peak of Huaxia Country's power. His officially recognized junior, who wouldn't take that seriously?

Moreover, Ge Dongxu's master had saved his grandfather's life. Now, Ge Dongxu himself also had an obligation toward his grandfather. Otherwise, given his grandfather's physical condition, it would have been difficult for him to live past ninety. But now, it seemed there should be no issues.

"For us, the most interesting eats in the capital are some private home cuisines. But since you are from outside the city, what you've probably heard about most is the Peking Duck. How about we go for Peking Duck tonight and tomorrow I'll take you to some well-known private home cuisines?" As the car drove out of the alley, Feng Chenqing suggested.

"Indeed, Peking Duck is too famous, I've always wanted to try it," Ge Dongxu laughed.

"Then let's go to Quanjude for Peking Duck," Feng Chenqing said, then upon reaching the intersection, turned the steering wheel and headed towards the Quanjude restaurant.

As night fell, cars streamed endlessly on the road, illuminated by lights all throughout, making the atmosphere far more bustling and majestic than in Linzhou, the Provincial Capital.

Originally, Feng Chenqing had planned to arrange a private room for Ge Dongxu, but Ge Dongxu said that it wasn't necessary for just two people, so they chose to sit in the main hall.

Since Ge Dongxu had a special identity, Feng Chenqing had made a call ahead of time and informed the manager of Quanjude about their arrival. Thus, their Peking Duck not only arrived quickly, but the chef personally took charge.

Quanjude's Peking Duck was indeed as good as its reputation: the meat was rich but not greasy, crispy on the outside and tender inside, Ge Dongxu thoroughly enjoyed it.

After eating the duck, Feng Chenqing suggested a walk around Shichahai, mentioning that the nighttime view there was quite nice.

Ge Dongxu had no objections and followed Feng Chenqing out.

Just as they reached the doorway, Feng Chenqing's phone rang. He took it out to look and was about to hang up.

Earlier during the meal, his phone had rung once and after checking it, Feng Chenqing had hung up; now seeing him about to hang up again, Ge Dongxu felt somewhat concerned and said, "It's alright, you take your call."

With Ge Dongxu's permission, Feng Chenqing answered the call.

When Feng Chenqing answered, Ge Dongxu clearly heard a young woman's voice on the other end, evidently carrying a hint of displeasure.

After that, Ge Dongxu didn't listen further because Feng Chenqing had already walked away with the phone, and naturally, Ge Dongxu wasn't going to eavesdrop.

"Sister Li!"

Standing at the entrance of Quanjude, while interestedly observing the bustling streets around, Ge Dongxu suddenly saw a familiar figure, which surprised and startled him.

ps: I'm on a family trip outdoors, playing during the day and writing at night, it's really exhausting. For the next three to four days, I can only maintain two updates per day. I hope to write more when I return, thank you for your understanding.
