Dragon Clan: Thought So Far

Chapter 209 208. Your daughter and I are not the kind of relationship you imagined (3)

"Is this Master Yue?" Lu Mingfei and Eliyi sat down at the small table under the shed, each poured a cup of cheap sake for themselves and the girl, and asked with a smile on their faces.

“My friend is studying in the Department of Finance at the University of Tokyo, and she told me that there is a delicious ramen restaurant in this alley,” he said.

Master Yue turned on the colored lights surrounding the signboard, and the shed was also lit up. The soup pot was illuminated by light and fire, and the miso soup inside was gurgling and fragrant. The old man bent down slightly and said eagerly: "Yes, yes, I really didn't expect it." There are still young people who are willing to advertise a ramen stall like mine."

"Haha, they all say that Master Yue's craftsmanship is the best on this street." Lu Mingfei laughed and said, he squeezed Eli Yi's fingers, leaned into the girl's ear and whispered, "Eli Yi What to eat?"

The man's breath was so hot that the girl's cheeks turned red. Master Yue winked at Lu Mingfei and gave a thumbs up from a place where Hui Liyi could not see. This time, Lu Mingfei felt a little shy, so he distanced himself from Eli Yi.

Master Yue said with emotion: "Sure enough, you are still shy at your age. Guest, you are still too young."

Eriyi looked at the menu in front of her carefully. After looking at it for a few minutes, she shook her head and pushed it in front of Lu Mingfei.

"I am the same as Mingfei." Eriyi wrote in a small notebook.

"Then let's have two bowls of the tonkotsu ramen that Master Yue is best at. I heard my friends talk about your masterpiece when I was in China. Then help me and my friend cut two braised eggs. You can add more green onions. ." There really aren't many choices here, just fried rice and ramen. At most, they can also provide a service of packing a roasted bird stew across the street for customers.

"You can't tell that the guest is Chinese at all." Master Yue looked a little happy, as if receiving guests from China made him feel happy.

"I have studied Japanese for a long time and lived in Japan for a while, so it is normal that I can't hear the accent." Lu Mingfei smiled.

Uesugoshi served them a small plate of fried pork cutlets, sprinkled with some pepper and you can smell the aroma: "It has been a long time since Chinese guests came to my place. In fact, I also have Chinese blood flowing in my body." ah."

"I can't tell that Master Yue is of mixed Chinese and Japanese descent," Lu Mingfei said. In fact, given Sugigo's age above, he probably lived in an era where there were more mixed Americans and Japanese people, right?

"I was actually born in France, and my mother is Chinese. Although I checked a lot of relevant information on the Internet and longed for it, unfortunately I have never been to that land." Uesugi said with some regret, Then he turned around and prepared ramen for Lu Mingfei and Eryi.

Lu Mingfei actually knew quite a bit about Uesugoshi's life experience. In general, as the last true emperor, this old man's life was rough and sad.

His father died on his bed to protect his mother as a tool to help the family reproduce outstanding offspring. His mother returned to China because of the war initiated by Japan and died on the way to escape. As the Shadow Emperor, Uesugi Koshi was one of the initiators of this war.

Today, only a few of the Snake Qihachi family know that Uesugi Koshi is still alive in this world, and the only person who knows his whereabouts is Inuyama Ga, who was active in almost the same era as him.

At this time, Eri was using a skewer to stick into the fried pork cutlets served by Master Koshi. Naturally, the Sheqihachi family would never prepare this high-calorie and high-sterol junk food for Eri, so she felt very uncomfortable. Somewhat novel.

To be honest, Lu Mingfei didn't really have much requirements for food. The biggest difference between him and a noble man like Caesar was that he didn't care at all about his quality of life. As for Eriyi, she yearned for the tonkotsu ramen and braised eggs ordered by Lu Mingfei. The little girl didn't care whether she was eating matsutake mushrooms, shiitake mushrooms, shark's fins or vermicelli. She had her own set of scoring standards for food.

Probably because it had just opened and it wasn’t time for dinner yet, after a while, there were still only two customers in the ramen stall, Lu Mingfei and Eriyi, and the huge pottery with both ears burning on the blue flame of the gas stove. The pot, the white and fragrant bone broth mixed in the earthenware pot is bubbling. Master Yue rolled up his sleeves and put the stretched noodles in a colander on the side. Then he cut the chives into small pieces on the cutting board. He then reached out and took out two braised eggs and cut them into pieces. .

Lu Mingfei sipped the sake and used a small notebook to communicate with Eriyi by writing. At the same time, he used the corner of his eye to carefully look at Uesugi who was busy preparing two bowls of ramen for them.

In the last period of time, Lu Mingfei had no chance to contact the former underworld supreme and the true ruler of the Sheqi Eight Families. When they tried their best to prevent the corpse guards floating from the Japan Trench on the artificial island from infiltrating into Tokyo. At that time, Lu Mingfei was driving Mai Shutoku's blue Lamborghini across half of Tokyo through the sea, rain, and wind, on his way to the red well of Tama River. To this day, he still remembers Koji Yada's "Friends" that was played on a loop that day. 》.

Later, Lu Mingfei actually asked Ange about Uesugoshi's deeds. He felt that the principal was probably a little guilty, because when he evacuated from the artificial island, he promised to protect the world with Uesugoshi's sons. , but he was not able to do it. Uesugoshi's two sons and one daughter both died in Hongjing. On a stormy night, the old man almost lost his most precious things at the same time, even though he had never really owned them.

Master Yue's back is by no means burly, but his spine is straight, and his skin is not as loose as other old people, but tight. The veins on his wrists are dormant like angry dragons. You can imagine that under the apron that is stained with the smell of oil. It is a body that is strong enough to tear a liger apart.

In this way, he doesn't look like an old man who sells ramen all year round to make a living, but like a warrior who is always ready to charge into the battlefield with his sword in hand.

Two bowls of ramen were served quickly. Neat noodles were rolled up in the middle of the bright white soup base. The braised eggs and pork chops cut in half were placed on top of the noodles and soaked in the soup base. Finely chopped green onions were garnished to add a nice touch. A hint of temptation. Japanese ramen rarely has chopped green onions, but when Lu Mingfei entered the store, he saw the fresh green onions hanging by the stove by Master Yue, so he made that request.

Tonkotsu ramen actually first became popular in Fukuoka City in the Kyushu region. It is characterized by the use of pork bones and trotters and other pork parts to make the soup base, and the addition of a large amount of onions, garlic, and ginger. Wait for seasonings to give the soup base a rich bone marrow aroma and spicy taste.

Lu Mingfei has not had the opportunity to be in Fukuoka, but he heard that Fukuoka's tonkotsu ramen usually uses longer noodles. The tonkotsu ramen made by Master Yue is shorter, and more noodles are added when the soup is cooked. Chicken bones and fish bones are delicious.

"I'm starting!" Lu Mingfei clasped his hands together and held the chopsticks. Eli Yi also did the same action, and then the sound of sucking could be heard endlessly.

In Japan, if you don't make a sound when eating ramen, it is considered disrespectful to the chef. They will think that you think their cooking skills are not worthy of the table.

"The two guests are lovers, they seem to be a really well-matched couple." Master Yue put a towel on his shoulders, smiled and sat down at the small table next to Lu Mingfei and Eri Yi, using a paper cup for himself He poured some sake, took a sip and let out a long sigh of praise.

Eriki suddenly stopped eating noodles and looked at Uesugi with some confusion.

I don’t know why the old man’s admiring tone and demeanor were very similar to when she did this action.

"We are not a couple yet, Master Yue, please stop joking." Lu Mingfei blushed and thought to himself, are you really not the actors invited by Lu Mingze?

There was an expression on Uesugoshi's face that every man would understand, and his eyebrows were raised: "I've seen you holding hands with this little girl. Guests, please don't give up."

"Hahaha, no, no, no, Master Yue, please stop thinking so wildly." Lu Mingfei sneered, but felt a little nervous. After all, it was now confirmed that the old man in front of him was indeed the former Yakuza Emperor Uesugi Koshi. Since it was him, he was the father of Minamoto Chisei and Minamoto Chino, and also the father of Eriki. When he thought about it, Lu Mingfei I started to have some liver tremors.

Does this count as picking up someone else’s daughter in front of her father? Lu Mingfei's cheek twitched.

However, as the last emperor born under natural conditions in the world, Uesugoshi's strength cannot be underestimated. Even in today's hybrid world of hidden dragons and crouching tigers, he can definitely be among the best. Even if it were not for the reason of the restraint of the spirit, even the original Angers is absolutely no match for this kind of humanoid monster.

Such a person is the father of two brothers, Eriki and Minamoto, and the final content of the Tokyo mission report in the last period of time and space has already shown his courage and inner persistence. Lu Mingfei really feels that Uesugi is more of him. The most suitable ally in Japan, a country that is now about to face a storm.

There should have been a place for this old man in his plan. Although it is only preliminary contact now, it still needs to be treated with caution.

Eryi lowered her head to eat noodles, and Lu Mingfei also lowered his head to think about something. At this time, Master Yue leaned closer to him, so Lu Mingfei didn't realize it.

The old man finally couldn't help but stretched his foot under the table and lightly kicked the distracted young man. Lu Mingfei raised his head in astonishment, and Master Yue licked his lips in the direction of Eli Yi.

The sunlight, which was divided into dark blue gauze and satin, fell on Eri's wine-red hair, as if it had been plated with a thin layer of gold. Her skin was white and transparent, and the tips of her hair were glowing so warmly. It seemed to be burning in the sunlight. But she buried her head, silently holding the spoon, and ate the remaining ramen in the wide-mouthed pottery bowl in small bites, one by one, as if she was very serious and wanted to focus all her attention on this. On the bowl of noodles.

Lu Mingfei was startled. Huiliyi had never been so depressed in front of him like this, like a canary whose feathers were wetted by the rain, listless and aggrieved, but her childlike stubbornness made her unwilling Be willing to hold your head high.

Master Yue made a cheering gesture towards Lu Mingfei, then stood up and diligently wiped the tables and chairs that had no customers yet. I think the business of this ramen stall was pretty good. There were a lot of ingredients in the kitchen, but It's too early now.

Lu Mingfei slowly drank the soup as if nothing had happened. At the same time, he reached out under the table to grab Eli Yi's wrist, but his touch was in vain. Only then did he notice that the girl had put her hand on his knee.

"Aren't you happy Eri?" Boss Lu really doesn't have much experience in relationships. When he is with Xia Mi, his junior sister always takes the initiative. At this time, he is a little at a loss, even asking such an idiotic question. Gotta export.

If it were a playboy like Caesar who had experienced many battles since he was a child, sitting here and making an unhappy gesture in Hui Liyi, Master Gattuso would have already embraced the beautiful girl in his arms.

Kaori Riyi is really not a person who hides her worries. In a sense, both of them can be called emotional idiots, so other girls will blurt out, "Do you know you are wrong? Where did you go wrong?" Erlian was there Eriyi doesn't exist here at all, she is just writing in a small notebook.

Then Eliyi showed what she had written to Lu Mingfei.

"Mingfei, why don't you want to say that Eriyi is your girlfriend?" Eriyi blinked her eyes, pearl-like tears trembling in the corners of her eyes.

After Lu Mingfei finished speaking, he immediately became confused and didn't know how to explain to this simple little monster.

"Uncle said that when a boyfriend and girlfriend are promoted to become an unmarried couple, they need to meet their parents. Meeting the parents is a test. I have met my uncle and aunt, and you have also met your brother, Mingfei. Why are we not lovers yet?" Eryi persisted and pressed forward step by step. , she was getting closer and closer to Lu Mingfei, the man's somewhat panicked face reflected in her clean eyes.

Master Yue wisely hid in the back kitchen and quietly observed through the cracks.

"I..." Lu Mingfei leaned back, otherwise Eriyi would have completely entered his arms. His mind has never been as flexible as it is now, but it always feels like a rusty gear and it is difficult to Turn.

The faint fragrance of the girl's body has overshadowed the strong fragrance of the ramen, and Lu Mingfei's Adam's apple rolled.

Lu Mingfei's arms suddenly tightened, and the girl had already pulled him into a light fragrance. Eliyi hugged him gently and came close to his ear.

Lu Mingfei felt Eriyi's teeth bite his earlobe, and a numbing feeling spread throughout his body, as if it was about to touch his heart. Before he could react, Eriyi had already spit out a ball of warm water vapor into his ear, carrying a hazy, dreamlike fragrance.

He trembled slightly, and finally found that he had fully hugged Eri, and even put the girl on his lap.

Eriyi stretched out a finger to press Lu Mingfei's lips, like a swan sipping the cold water of an icy lake. Then she moved her fingers away and gently pressed her warm lips against Lu Mingfei's lips. This little The ramen shack seemed to be empty and lonely, with people laughing and joking outside the cloth, and neither of them seemed willing to give in despite the bubbling sound of the soup on the small fire.

The clock on the car wall was ticking, and Lu Mingfei did not avoid Eliyi's sight. The sun was just right when it happened, and the surroundings were surrounded by sycamore leaves and maple leaves falling like snow.

When they finally separated, the September wind passed silently from the end of the long street, lifting the girl's forehead. Her eyes were bright, her lips were pursed, and her eyelashes were trembling slightly in the wind.

"So are we a couple now?"

Eriyi asked using a small notebook.

The tip of Lu Mingfei's nose was tickled by the red hair tips. He narrowed his eyes and nodded slightly, but he did not see the trace of excitement and animal-like cunning flashing in Eryi's eyes.

"Young people today are different from us back then. If I dared to kiss a girl like this in a ramen stall, her father would probably have my legs broken." Master Yue said inappropriately.

Lu Mingfei and Eryi both turned their heads away, blushing with embarrassment.

"It won't be seen by the family..." Boss Lu still wanted to argue.

Master Yue had a bit of a smile on his face: "What if you see it?"

"Then I will tell uncle that the relationship between me and your daughter is not the kind of relationship you imagined!" Lu Mingfei said righteously, "We are serious about getting married, and we have considered the future!"

It was quite decent when he did this, but even though he was a little out of breath, Lu Mingfei still felt guilty about being a thief.

After all, his real girlfriend will fly to Japan soon, and there is no guarantee how long Lu Mingfei's life will be saved.

But Master Yue smiled happily.

"Then your girlfriend's father will be very happy," he said.

Lu Mingfei's eyes lit up: "Really?"

"Of course, if you want to get married, you also want to live a good life. To buy a house, buy a car, prepare to have children, etc., you have to make money seriously." Master Yue saw clearly that this is indeed the life that ordinary people should live.

"What if it's your daughter?" Lu Mingfei's eyes brightened.

"Then I will give you my best wishes!" Master Yue vigorously patted Lu Mingfei's shoulder. Just as he was about to say something more, a new customer opened the cover and walked in. So the ramen chef patted his sleeves and greeted him. , "What would the guests like to eat?" he asked loudly.
