Chapter 11 Browsing the Capital
Alice and Lu left the mansion and walked to the main road.
Although she had seen a very peaceful atmosphere from the carriage before, and the surroundings were full of life, but now walking on the road, Lu couldn't help but sigh: It really deserves to be the royal capital.
There are many shops on the roadside, including clothing stores, food stores, jewelry stores and even weapon stores. Just looking at this bustling scene makes people feel that the surroundings are full of vitality.
Since arriving in the royal capital, Lu has been deeply surprised by everything she has seen.
When Lu and Alice walked through the door of a clothing store, Alice suddenly said: "By the way, Lu, I remember you only have this set of coats. Do you want to buy a few more?"
"
With that said, Lu just remembered that she only had this black coat on her body, and it was a little dirty. She was about to start living in the academy in the next few days. Apart from this black coat, it was best to wear something else.
It would be better to add some clothes, so he accepted Alice's suggestion, and they walked into the door of the clothing store together.
After entering the clothing store, Alice selected a few sets of clothes for Lu to try on. After Lu changed into the clothes, she stood in front of the mirror and looked at them. Although these clothes were very good, Lu always felt that they were not good enough.
It was suitable. Alice didn't know Lu's taste, so she had to let Lu choose.
Lu picked out a few sets of clothing on his own, all of which were black coats similar to the ones he wore before. Alice looked at his weird taste and didn't know what to say.
Alice had a lot of money, and later helped Lu buy many daily necessities... Lu promised her that she would repay this kindness in the future.
After buying clothes, the two returned to the road again. They visited the fountain square, the library of the royal capital, the clock tower representing the royal capital, and the statue of Rosa Elena standing in the center of the square.
In the meantime, Alice told Lu many things. However, the topics all revolved around where and what kind of shops there are, where are delicious restaurants, etc. Lu thought that Alice should be worried about telling her in one breath.
He may not be able to keep up if he reveals a lot of things about this country.
"Lu, should we go back to the mansion or have dinner outside?"
When the sun began to set, at Alice's suggestion, Lou decided to eat outside. So Alice led Lou to a shop some distance away from the main road. She said there was one thing that Lou must try.
Try it.
This shop looks a bit like a small restaurant. When you walk inside, the shop is very lively, with customers eating and drinking energetically. It seems that this shop is quite popular.
"Ah, there's an empty seat there."
There happened to be two empty seats near the wall. The two of them sat down, and then the waiter came over.
"You two, what would you like to order?"
"Ah, just serve us any dishes, and also give us a copy of your store's signature set meal."
The waiter said: "I understand" and left. Not long after, he brought a few dishes.
The dishes that were served included fried fish, bread baked with honey, and a basin of fragrant cream soup. Finally, the waiter brought them two more drinks.
"Lu, try it. The food in this store tastes very good, especially the herb tea made from the juice of the Merlo flower. The taste is unimaginable. I guarantee you will like it."
So Lu took a sip of this tea, and the rich fragrance and elegant sweetness immediately spread in her mouth, making Lu unable to forget this fragrance for a long time.
"very nice."
"It's great that I like it." As she said that, Alice also picked up the cup and took a sip.
After tasting the delicious tea, the two began to taste the food. Halfway through the meal, Lu suddenly said.
"Alice, thank you very much today."
"Huh?"
"You stayed with me all day and told me so many things about the Royal Capital. I have a great time today and I'm really grateful."
"As long as you are happy, to be honest, since I met you, I have never seen you really smile once."
"Um?"
"Although you have indeed laughed before, I always feel that it does not come from your sincerity. You...have never laughed from the bottom of your heart."
"is that so?"
Lu showed a confused expression, and then Alice directly changed the topic. She thought that if the topic continued, the atmosphere would become very awkward, and a good meal could not be wasted like this.
Fortunately, the worst scenario did not develop in the end. In the end, the two of them finished the dinner in a happy atmosphere. After finishing the meal and paying the bill, the two of them walked out of the store. It was already dark outside.
.
"Fortunately, I told the mansion that we don't need to prepare our dinner today, otherwise I'm afraid a lot of food would be wasted today."
"Haha, Alice is really good at everything."
"Thank you." After saying this, Alice also showed a shy expression.
"It's so affectionate, you two." A hoarse and vulgar voice came from behind the two of them.
Lu looked in the direction where the voice came from and saw a burly man with a sinewy face and several men who looked like followers walking over from behind them.
"Excuse me, what's the matter?"
Alice asked. The tall man cast his obscene gaze on Alice's chest.
"I remember you should be the third daughter of the Northfield family. Not only are you so cute, you also have a good figure. How about it? Do you want to play with us?"
The followers behind the man whistled and made a commotion. Alice noticed the other person's gaze and immediately covered her chest with both hands. The man smiled maliciously and interacted with his followers.
After a wink, he said: "Why don't you stay with us tonight? We're going to the store for dinner and drinks later. It would be great if you could have some fun with us. How about it, it's very simple, right?"
"I'm sorry, I've already eaten. Besides, if I have to eat with people like you, I'm afraid I'll lose my appetite."
"Oh, so what kind of person would you eat with to have an appetite?"
"At least it has to be the same as the one next to me." Alice answered immediately.
After hearing Alice's answer, the burly man immediately turned his attention to Lu. It was obvious in his eyes that he looked down on Lu very much.
"Who do you think you are? If you disappear immediately, I can turn a blind eye and leave quickly."
Faced with the provocation of this burly man, Lu did not leave. Instead, she walked up to the man, stretched one hand behind her back, held the hilt of the black sword tightly, and then used the other hand to One hand protected Alice behind her.
Alice, who has had extraordinary gifts and talents since she was a child, has always been called a "talented girl" and "perfect" by others. She herself does not take these people seriously at all, although Lu does not He knew that Alice had the strength to defeat these people, but she still stood in front of him to stand up for her.
Alice looked at Lu, and for a moment she felt very handsome from Lu's body, and a hint of shyness suddenly appeared on her face. After all, this was the first time in her life that a boy protected her in front of her.
Perhaps they were aware of the dispute happening outside, and many people in the store ran out to watch. However, these men were not afraid at all. Instead, they seemed to want to show off their power in front of everyone.
"The audience has increased. It's becoming more and more interesting."
The burly man looked at Lu with an expression as if he was having some crooked thinking.
"Brother, do you still want to fight with me for the sake of your girlfriend?"
"I promised Alice's father that I would protect her safety. Trash like you have no right to get close to her."
Upon hearing Lu's speech, several veins popped out on the face of the sturdy man. His subordinates also had angry faces on their faces and were shouting.
"You bastard, how dare you call us trash?"
"Let's teach him a lesson!"
"Make you regret being born in this world!"
The burly man stood in front of Lu, smiled and said, "You kid, do you want to fight me?"
In the eyes of others, this burly man showed an absolutely overwhelming advantage, both in terms of his physique and his habit of fighting, and everyone couldn't help but feel uneasy about Lu.
