Chapter 220: Chapter 216: The Secret of Red Cloud Mountain Peak

“You’re really something, even the guide from Red Cloud Mountain knows you?” Brother Xu scrutinized Tang Luo, speaking in disbelief.

The deeds of affluent heirs are often hyped, a strategy employed by their families to build up their reputations.

A person’s prestige and virtue are accumulated through constant retelling and eventually solidify into tangible weight. Once the heir comes of age, any position he holds seems rightly his, preventing any disparity between virtue and rank.

But reputation is one thing; knowing the individual personally is another. For example, everyone in Middle Ying City knows of the illustrious Lord Eldest Young Master, but very few know Brother Xu himself.

Upon hearing Brother Xu’s jest, Tang Luo merely smiled and said, “I’m not that renowned, it’s just that this man and I have some history. Let’s proceed up the mountain.”

The children had already done so raucously. The trio couldn’t fall too far behind, so they nodded in agreement and began their ascent.

They chatted and laughed as they climbed. Most of the time, Brother Xu and Mi Bai were discussing art and the views along the way, while Tang Luo, content to simply listen, remained silent.

Before long, the trio caught up with the kids. After all, children get winded easily, and their initial energetic sprint had left them fatigued.

Their small faces were flushed a rosy red from exertion, yet they clung desperately to their lunch boxes, every last one of them.

Stopping in his tracks, Du Ziteng, who had been leading the group, waited for the trio and suggested, “The mountain path is starting to get steep. Should we let the children rest before we continue?”
