The Darling of Heaven Owns a Rip-off Shop-Chapter 197 - 21: Treasure on the Palm, Pig

Yan Zhengya felt a slight toothache watching, but still nodded. When he came in just now, he glanced around; indeed, there was a strong demon aura in this room, but there was no hint of murderous intent. If, as Luo Fu said, this truly was an extremely vicious monster, there would be some trace of killing aura. Yet here, apart from sensing that a monster had indeed been present, everything was as peaceful as could be.

After thinking for a while, Yan Zhengya took out a few Concentration Talismans and had Luo Fu stick them around the room, saying that the two of them would come to exorcise the demon at night.

Luo Fu tearfully told Yan Zhengya that the Wolf Demon might attack the Prince Mansion again at night. If he stayed around the mansion, he could surely exorcise the demon.

Yan Zhengya listened, only nodded, said nothing more, just instructed Wang Congshan to come over at night to protect Luo Fu.

Luo Fu’s expression showed a momentary anomaly, then quickly returned to normal, all of which Yan Zhengya noticed.

Wang Congshan eagerly agreed, hurriedly saying he’d booked the best inn in town, could order anything to eat and charge it to the second young master of the Prince Mansion. Amidst the two’s profuse thanks, Yan Zhengya left with the humorous pig.

His intuition told Yan Zhengya the matter definitely wasn’t as simple as they claimed. Or rather, Luo Fu’s sobbing made Yan Zhengya sense the complexity of the situation.

After leaving the small courtyard, Yan Zhengya and the pig didn’t rush back to the inn but leisurely found a restaurant to sit down in. Yan Zhengya ordered a pot of wine, seven dishes, a wooden bucket-sized serving of rice. Amidst the surprised looks of bystanders, he served himself a small bowl of rice, then placed the entire wooden bucket in front of the humorous pig. Except for keeping a plate of cold beef salad with wine, everything else was placed beside the pig, whose pink nose would point at a dish, and Yan Zhengya would pick a chopstick-full and place it in the bucket for the pig.

Half an hour passed, and the pig had licked all the dishes twice. Yan Zhengya’s wine hadn’t even been finished, so the pig could only lie quietly to the side, staring fixedly at Yan Zhengya’s lone remaining cold beef salad.

Onlookers were dumbfounded. What kind of pig is this? It’s insatiable!

Moreover, after finishing its own portion, it continued eyeing the owner’s. Why did they find it inexplicably amusing?

Not far from this restaurant, one could see the courtyard where Luo Fu was. Earlier, they saw Wang Congshan coming out from within and riding away happily.

As night increasingly fell, the households below lit their lamps, and at that moment, a strong demonic aura came, a mass of black fog jumped directly into the courtyard where Luo Fu was.

Yan Zhengya raised an eyebrow and spoke to the waiter: "Keep serving this little pig whatever it wants, and charge it to the second young master of the Prince Mansion. Here’s the token. Oh, by the way, read the menu items out loud; it can understand." He took out the Prince Mansion token given to him by Wang Congshan from his sleeve, tossed it to the waiter, turned and patted the pig’s head: "Order whatever you’d like; I’ll pick you up later, just stay here. I’m coming right back, understand?"

Hearing that its father was leaving, the pig wasn’t greedy for the unfinished beef but clung tightly to Yan Zhengya’s arm, unwilling to let go.

"Waiter, take good care of my pig, watch over it. There will be a reward when I return." Yan Zhengya solemnly instructed, giving the waiter a small piece of silver. 𝓯𝓻𝒆𝙚𝒘𝓮𝙗𝓷𝒐𝓿𝙚𝒍.𝙘𝓸𝙢

"Don’t worry, don’t worry, I’ll definitely take good care of it for the master." The waiter took the silver, grinning upon hearing there’d be more silver upon return, confidently promised, but then suspiciously asked, "Master, can your pig really understand the menu?"

"Yes, it definitely can. Just keep an eye on it for me, I’ll be right back." Yan Zhengya asserted with certainty.
