System [I am in a horror dungeon]

The three of them returned to the building, but now the room felt warm, without any of the cold atmosphere from before.

Chu Lingxian asked Li Jinjia, "Do you want to move back home?"

Li Jinjia suppressed the smile on his face. He had to answer this question carefully. "No, I've already given up the lease, and it's not easy to talk to the landlord about it. So let's just leave it at that. I'll find a place to live while I wait."

"That house is hers. If you want to live there for a long time, go find her."

Li Jinjia turned to look at Lu Nanyin with an earnest look in his eyes, "You won't let me move out, right?"

Lu Nanyin smiled and said, "Of course not. I'll rent it to you at the same price."

"Thank you so much."

As he said this, he was about to hug her, but was frightened by Chu Lingxian's eyes. He just held her hand and thanked her frantically.

"Now that the matter is over, should we have a simple meal? A small celebration?"

The three of them looked at each other, reached a tacit understanding, walked outside together, and drove to the restaurant.

On the way, Li Jinjia talked about what happened in the dungeon. At the end, she looked at Chu Lingxian with bright eyes and said admiringly: "You are so amazing. Where did you learn the last magic circle? Or is it some powerful prop? How come those souls obeyed you? It's amazing!"

Chu Lingxian listened in a daze and helped Ling Yin to cover up the lie, "Well, this is naturally an item I got after passing a very difficult dungeon."

Lu Nanyin also helped answer: "Yes, and there are many things to pay attention to when using it, and it is only allowed once."

Li Jinjia exclaimed: "Amazing, you are worthy of it!"

Chu Lingxian and Lu Nanyin looked at each other and tried to hold back their laughter. Although it was not a good idea to fool others, there was nothing they could do. If other people knew about this, they would be doomed. Besides, they were about to leave and could not have too much involvement with this world.

The three of them arrived at the place. Li Jinjia looked at this simple little restaurant and then at Chu Lingxian. "Is this some kind of private restaurant? It's one of those low-key and luxurious places."

Chu Lingxian shook his head. "No, it's just a small restaurant. Not many people know about it, but the food is delicious."

"Really? That's great. This restaurant has been added to my dining list. I will definitely visit it often in the future."

The three of them walked into the store and were greeted by a young girl who looked like a high school student.

The little girl shouted towards the kitchen, "Grandpa, someone is here. It's the sister I mentioned before. She brought a new friend with her."

"Hey, good!"

A kind-looking old man came out from the kitchen, wearing an apron and wiping his hands. He said with a smile, "Since you are here, sit over here. What would you like to eat? Here is the menu, take a look."

"Okay, thank you grandpa."

The three of them looked at the small restaurant. It had a very homely decoration with a retro style, which made people unconsciously recall the past era.

"Chu Lingxian, how did you know about this restaurant? Looking at this place makes me feel like I'm home. Are those peppers hanging over there real peppers? And corn too."

"Sister, these are real. If you want to eat them, you can add them to the dishes."

"Okay, at your age, you should be in high school, right?"

"Yes, my name is Qiao Zhen, and I'm a student at No. 1 Middle School in the city."

"No. 1 High School in the city, that's amazing, sister, it's the best high school."

Qiao Zhen smiled and lowered his head a little shyly.

Chu Lingxian handed her the menu and said, "Order."

Li Jinjia took the menu and was stunned when he saw the various dishes on it. This place really focuses on nostalgia. These dishes are only known by the older generation. Although they look simple, it takes a lot of effort to make them delicious.

"I want these two dishes. When I come here next time, I will definitely try all the dishes here."

While waiting for the food, the three of them chatted, and Qiao Zhen was doing her homework on the side. Sometimes she would ask them if she didn't understand something, but it was Chu Lingxian who explained it to her. Li Jinjia and Lu Nanyin only had a vague understanding of these questions.

When the food was served and the smell wafted out, Li Jinjia felt even hungrier. When she was in the dungeon, she had been eating dry food, and only at the end when she was in the city did she eat some bread and the like. Now she had been hungry for a long time.

After taking a bite of the dish, Li Jinjia exclaimed repeatedly, "This is so fragrant! It's just a very ordinary dish, how can it be so delicious?"

Chu Lingxian had brought Lu Nanyin here once before, and Lu Nanyin had often talked about the food here. This time, she finally got to eat new dishes that were so delicious that she couldn't stop eating them.

It was not yet dinner time, and they were the first table of guests. It was very quiet around them, so they could enjoy the food attentively. They were sitting by the window, and there were some gardens outside with some unknown flowers and plants, which were pleasing to the eye. There were also some trees, and the surroundings were filled with the fragrance of flowers, plants and trees.

The delicious food and beautiful scenery were a perfect match, and Li Jinjia enjoyed the meal very much.

At the end, she even wanted to lick the plate. She said goodbye to the old man and Qiao Zhen, and the three of them went back.

Li Jinjia just remembered to ask, "You haven't told me yet, how did you know about this small restaurant? I saw that the people who came later were all familiar customers, so how did you find out about this place?"

"I went in accidentally during the lawsuit."

"A lawsuit? Against whom? Are you the plaintiff or the defendant?"

"I'm the plaintiff. The father of a former business partner lived nearby. For some reason, he had been harassed by this generation of bullies. The old man was nostalgic and didn't want to move away, so he sued the bullies. It just so happened that we were going to cooperate with them, so we helped them. In the end, when we celebrated, we had a meal in this small restaurant."

Lu Nanyin also just learned about these things, "So that's how it is."

"Qiao Zhen is amazing. I have completely forgotten all these questions. But you are amazing too. You still remember all the knowledge from high school. After I went to college, I almost forgot everything before that."

"Qiao Zhen is his adopted child, who was previously in an orphanage."

They didn't expect this result. "They were adopted by the welfare home. Where are the old man's wife and children?"

Chu Lingxian was silent for a long while before speaking: "He had a son and a daughter, but they both died."

"sacrifice?"

"Is his child a soldier or a policeman?"

"His son was a soldier, and his daughter was a police officer and a forensic doctor. They all died in the line of duty for various reasons. As for his wife, she died of depression soon after learning that her children were gone."

The relaxed atmosphere in the car disappeared. No one expected that the old man in the restaurant would have such a rough life.
