Chapter 1236: First Place and The True Ident.i.ty of The Ancestor
The MC told the audience. The match between Long Hui and Yu Qi was the last fight. The list of the winners appeared on the air.
Yu Qi's name came on top of them. Second place was Long Hui. The third place belonged to Qiu w.a.n.g. The fourth and fifth places were Dian Shu Xian and Huo Jinxi.
Next was the prize-giving ceremony. The ancestor came to deliver the prize to the winner. It was a great honor for the partic.i.p.ants to stand close to the ancestor.
The ceremony ended.
"I would like to invite the first place for the dinner tonight." The ancestor suddenly said to Yu Qi.
This made everyone bewildered with what they had listened to just now. They looked at the ancestor.
The ancestor never invited others for dinner. Usually, after the compet.i.tion ended, the organizer would arrange the place for the ancestor to stay but the ancestor did not stay over. He would immediately leave after the compet.i.tion.
This time, he would not only stay but invite someone for dinner. It was a very unusual scene.
"Okay, but I would like to go with my fiancee." Yu Qi agreed but requested something.
Others around the ancestor frowned as they heard this. They felt that the girl should not ask for more. It was good for her that the ancestor took fancy to her.
"Sure... I don't mind." The ancestor said.
"Thank you, Your Grace." Yu Qi smiled.
Everyone was stunned. Since when did the ancestor become so approachable? Who is this? Is this ancestor fake? They had a lot of questions but they did not have the courage to ask.
The ancestor looked at Yu Qi and Long Hui for a moment before leaving.
"Bring me to the room. I will take some rest before dinner. And arrange the dinner." The ancestor ordered.
"Yes, Your Grace. We will arrange the dinner. Let me lead you to your room." Someone said.
The ancestor smiled.
"You Girl. Your Great Grandpa almost dies because of you." Great Grandpa Dian said to Yu Qi.
He was standing behind the ancestor. He was scared when Yu Qi behaved like that in front of the ancestor.
"Why?" Yu Qi tilted her head, not understanding why her Great Grandpa had to feel that way.
"Father is afraid that the ancestor will angry." Grandpa Dian said. He was so nervous seeing the scene. He continued. "You should behave during the dinner later."
"That's right. Don't make the ancestor angry at you." Great Grandpa Dian pressed the topic greatly to Yu Qi and Long Hui.
"Yes." Yu Qi said like an obedient girl.
"You should look out for her, Hui." Granndpa Dian said.
"Yes." Long Hui nodded.
"By the way, Yu Qi, congratulations on winning this martial arts compet.i.tion." Great Grandpa Dian said to Yu Qi.
Yu Qi grinned. With that, a lot of them congratulated Yu Qi for the win. Yu Qi thanked them.
Bucong Shuye looked at Yu Qi. His eyes narrowed for a bit. He felt pity that a woman like that already had her man. Since it already belonged to someone else, there was no need to disturb her. If only he meet with her first, the situation might different then. He left.
Long Hui sensed something. He also looked at the place where Bucong Shuye's standing before.
....
Yu Qi and Long Hui were led by someone to a restaurant. It was a fancy restaurant. They were brought into a private room. When they entered the room, they could see that the ancestor was already inside.
The ancestor was drinking. The man asked Yu Qi and Long Hui to enter before he slowly closed the door. Yu Qi and Long Hui looked at the ancestor.
"It has been a while since I see you, Yu Qi."
It was a familiar voice came out of the ancestor.
"My guess is right then. It is indeed you, Brother Xia." Yu Qi smiled.
"Oh, you notice?" Qin Xia took off his mask.
"Of course. You can't escape my eyes." Yu Qi chuckled.
"How have you been?" Qin Xia asked.
"I am fine. I even win this compet.i.tion." Yu Qi put a proud face.
"Hmm... That's good." Qin Xia smiled.
"I have to say, I am surprised with your ident.i.ty, Mr. Qin." Long Hui said after being silent.
It seemed that Qin Xia had an unusual ident.i.ty here.
Qin Xia moved his eyes to Long Hui. "It is one of my ident.i.ties."
"Oh... So, you have a lot of ident.i.ties." Long Hui said.
"Yes." Qin Xia lifted up his eyebrow.
Even though they were talking, the atmosphere was very tense. In other words, they were in the middle of the war.
However, it was disturbed by the knocks on the door.
"Your Grace, can I serve the food right now?" There was a voice asking for the ancestor's permission.
"You may." Qin Xia answered.
The door was opened.
"Your mask?" Yu Qi remindered.
"Don't worry." Qin Xia said.
The people put the food on the table. "I hope you will enjoy our food." The people left.
"They don't see your true face?" Yu Qi asked.
"I put the mist. They saw me with the mask." Qin Xia smiled.
"I see." Yu Qi did not pry much about that. She knew her limit.
"Let's eat." Qin Xia said.
Three of them were eating. Long Hui put the food into Yu Qi's bowl. She did not reject it and just ate it.
