Chapter 987: Chapter 997: This Is Our Chinese Concert (Part 2)
In the end, Avril and William left somewhat disappointed.
The main reason why they sought Lin Xi was that his strength was formidable.
Although their family is also exceptionally powerful, ranking among the top families in the United Kingdom,
there are other powerful families entering the Holy Land this time.
So the danger isn’t just from the Holy Land, but there are threats from others as well.
If Lin Xi would have gone with them, she would have been much more at ease.
After all, they’ve witnessed Lin Xi’s strength firsthand, even able to defeat seasoned innate powerhouses.
They asked their family’s innate elders, but they all said that it was very difficult, if not unlikely, for someone of the same level to kill their opponent.
This left Avril and William amazed!
To think, Lin Xi had just broken through to the innate level, previously being the Peak Soldier King.
How could he be this formidable just after breaking through to the innate level?
It’s simply unbelievable.
But if he doesn’t want to go this time, there’s nothing they can do; it’s not something you can force.
Even for the Butte Clan, they can’t provoke someone like him.
As Avril left the café, she headed straight home.
Lin Xi wouldn’t go with them, but her Butte Clan certainly won’t miss this opportunity.
Honestly speaking, while there’s a certain risk, it’s not actually very high.
Plus, with two innate family members accompanying her, she thought it should be fine; even if other families schemed against them, they could handle it.
After the two left, Lin Xi remained, continuing to drink coffee at the café.
After all, when he first came to the café, he noticed a pretty waitress, the slender and tall type, scoring about 7.5 in looks, although her figure wasn’t as good as the previous clothing store’s waitress.
But that was acceptable.
Besides, he checked out London’s scenery yesterday.
To be honest, it wasn’t really that impressive.
He thought that the sights, landscapes, and culture didn’t compare to our Huaxia’s five thousand years.
The most crucial aspect is that foreign food tastes very average or even unappetizing.
Otherwise, many who travel or go abroad for work bring instant noodles and Lao Gan Ma, not just for leisure, but for their appetite.
When the pretty waitress passed by Lin Xi, he was about to request another cup of coffee.
Yes, of course, another Blue Mountain coffee.
Even though it’s not as good as tea, you have to maintain a certain level of sophistication; after all, he’s not short on money.
When the pretty waitress brought it over, Lin Xi directly asked if she could sit down and have a drink with him, and introduce the history of their coffee shop.
Yes, it’s an old shop.
The pretty waitress neither refused nor sat down but instead fetched a small booklet from the counter and handed it to Lin Xi.
Lin Xi took a look, and it contained the coffee shop’s introduction.
At the same time, he heard the pretty waitress say, "I have a boyfriend!"
After speaking, she walked off to another area.
Lin Xi chuckled wryly; it seemed like today wasn’t his lucky day for being asked out or doing the asking.
Around noon, when the café began to get busier, he left.
He thought about casually finding a fast-food place or perhaps a buffet to solve his hunger problem.
But at that moment, his phone rang.
"Finally remember me?"
The caller was Luo Susu, responding from her end, "Where are you? I’m hungry!"
Lin Xi, "..."
So she only thought of him when hungry!
"Weren’t you two with Dili Bare?"
"No, we just parted ways. They’re heading to the venue to rehearse, do makeup, and get familiar with the environment!"
"Alright then!" Lin Xi couldn’t ignore the two of them, "I’ll send you a location, just come over directly!"
In less than half an hour, the two ladies appeared before him.
Likewise, Lin Xi opened the Dazhong Dianping app, ignoring the prices, and found a highly rated and popular restaurant.
However, when the three of them ate, the taste wasn’t as good as yesterday, yet the price was several times higher than yesterday.
Of course, it was still a Chinese restaurant.
As for local British ones, he excluded them altogether.
Except for the one Avril took him to, he hadn’t encountered a single local British restaurant he found satisfactory.
Luo Susu felt the same way!
As for Jones, she had no complaints and agreed that Chinese food certainly tasted much better.
Lin Xi also noticed that many customers in this place, besides foreigners, wore displeased expressions, especially the Huaxia people.
"This place’s ratings definitely have issues!"
He reopened the app and delved into it, discovering that there were indeed plenty of negative reviews, just overshadowed by positive ones.
It seems that foreign restaurants also engage in rating and popularity fraud?
It’s really terrifying!
To know, when he traveled abroad before, he always relied on Dazhong Dianping; back then, any high-rated and popular places were generally good.
But now, as more people travel abroad, some businesses have started faking things.
They’re probably thinking, ’trick as many as they can.’
After the three finished eating, it was around twelve o’clock.
At this time, Luo Susu suggested heading to the London O2 Arena right away, as it would take over an hour to drive there, likely reaching nearly two o’clock by the time they arrived.
Although the queue for entry only starts around five o’clock, they have VIP tickets that allow them to enter through the VIP passage directly.
Luo Susu felt it would be good to arrive early and see if they could be of any assistance.
Lin Xi had no objections to this.
After all, he had nothing planned, and given his lack of luck, he wasn’t in the mood for trying to meet girls.
This sort of thing, let fate decide.
"So many people?" Lin Xi remarked, surprised, a kilometer away from the arena.
Even at this distance, he could see a lot of people, and the road was impassable, blocked entirely.
The three of them had to get out of the car and walk to the arena.
"Are there so many Chinese in London?" he marveled again.
Since the country with the most Chinese in the West should be the United States, right?
But now, in such a vast London, the density of Huaxia people seems comparable to the United States.
Jones was the most familiar with this and explained, "Actually, London is quite small, and the climate is significantly different from your Huaxia."
"Even seeing so many Chinese here, most are students, people from other areas, and tourists. The number of those genuinely residing in London is quite small!"
Lin Xi was taken aback, "Is that so?"
It seemed like Xie Ziqi was truly famous, attracting so many Huaxia people to attend her concert.
"There don’t seem to be many foreigners, so it looks like Xie Ziqi is only famous domestically and among Huaxia people!" he mused, "Our Huaxia celebrities seem to need a long time to make a name internationally!"
