My Life as an Awoken

As we waited for our food to arrive we talked about nothing of importance, just idle chatter to pass the time.

When the food arrived it came with a sumptuous aroma that made my stomach growl.

The food was quite an assortment, consisting of things that I had never seen before. The only things I could recognize at a glance were the dumplings, buns, and the fried rice.

Everything else I didn’t recognize, like the dish that was a crispy red square that sat on top of some kind of meat. It looked good but I had no idea what it was.

It turned out that I’m just stupid. Or rather I just haven’t seen the world. Because I knew what everything was I just didn’t correlate it to these presentations.

The crispy red square, yeah, that was just pork belly.

Then you had a stuffed croquette, dim sum, orange chicken, and for dessert we had custard. Everything was very good, a ten out of ten. Which is the second time I have given that illustrious score. Granny holds the first one.

Even the floral tea I had with the meal was nice. It was a solid meal that I would love to have again.

All for the low price of $200. Considering the different currency that is the estimated value.

As we were leaving the restaurant we saw a young man with his arms around two women. He was talking loudly and had a boisterous attitude unbefitting of the environment.

He saw us at a distance and I saw his eyes light up as he looked at Xue Qing. I instantly knew this was going to be annoying and used my glasses to call the bodyguards that were waiting outside.

He sauntered right up to us and cut off our path. Then with a smirk that was just asking to be hit started talking.

As he was speaking in the Xia language I had to use my glasses to translate.

He said, "What’s a beauty like you doing not hanging out with me? You should come with me and have a good time."

Before he had even reached us I had already used my glasses to scan his face and run a background check.

His name is Yu Zixuan, he is the son of Yu Hongyi. Yu Hongyi is the CEO of a subsidiary of one of the top businesses in Hong Kong. The company he is in charge of is Sun Building Contractors Limited, it is the core construction services of the parent company.

He is a very wealthy and influential man, but he isn’t anyone we have to worry about.

We especially don’t have to worry about this spoiled loser of a son. He has multiple reports of drugging women and taking advantage of them. But it seems his father has been paying off all of the women so he hasn’t been arrested.

I turned to look at Xue Qing and relayed this information.

This idiot in front of us obviously couldn’t understand what I was saying, but he could recognize his and his fathers name being said.

He got smug, lifted his chin and said, "So, you know who I am. Good. Go get a room and wait for me to come deal with you. If I’m satisfied I’ll let you be one of my-."

Before another word could leave his filthy mouth I punched him right in the nose. I was able to get a full wind up before clocking him.

His nose collapsed and he crumpled like the paper tiger he was.

Now I may be a skinny guy, but I have been in my fair share of fights. So, I know how to throw a punch. Plus, this guy was completely unguarded. I don’t know if it is a difference in culture or he is just that much of an idiot.

How do you say something like that and not expect to get blasted?

He was laying on the ground sputtering and holding his bloody nose. Just as we were going to walk past him he finally managed to scramble back to his feet. He pushed the girls trying to help him off and shouted.

"Good! Very good! It’s been a long time since someone has dared to touch me! Now you are going to pay for that!"

While he said that, I wasn’t worried in the slightest. Because while he was giving his little monologue our body guards arrived. They were standing right behind him, silent dark towers ready to dispatch the little guy.

He was still completely unaware, shouting, "Now look at my power! You damn ants!" His hand caught on fire. It looked like his very flesh turned into fire as you could see the white bones of his hand through the fire.

He continued, "Tremble in fear-."

At that moment one of the body guards dropped their heavy hand on his shoulder causing his knees to wobble. Yu Zixuan slowly turned his head to see the bodyguards that looked like mountains with boulders all over.

His fiery hand was extinguished like a candle in a typhoon and his body was shaking like a leaf in that very same typhoon. His voice came out shaky, "To what pleasure do I owe to meet you fine gentlemen?"

The body guard just lightly taped his hand on Yu Zixuan’s shoulder, which sent him to his knees. Then said emotionlessly, "You should apologize to our mistress."

Yu Zixuan could only grit his teeth and squeeze out a pathetic apology.

Xue Qing said nothing and just pulled me along to walk past him. I couldn’t help myself as we passed, I said, "Good dog." in passing. I know he couldn’t understand me, but I didn’t mind. It was just my own satisfaction.

Plus I knew this wouldn’t be the end of him. He was likely to try to find out who we were to get his revenge, but he would come to find that any information on us would be out of his reach.
