Chapter 900 - 632: Truly Different
"I say, brothers, you guys are really fast, I've been chasing you for a while."
The guy stopped, bent over panting, with a slightly blaming look on his face.
"Uh... mister, is there something going on?"
Xia Liang looked curious; he hadn't met the guy before, but it seemed like he really had business with them.
Lu Rui'an had already taken an electric baton out of the car, just placing it behind him, staring at the guy. If the guy dared to make a move, he would undoubtedly hit him with the electric baton.
"Brothers, you dropped your wallet, I've been shouting at you, but you both just wouldn't listen."
The guy said while handing over a wallet.
"Better check if anything is missing."
Looking at the wallet in front of him, Xia Liang frowned; the wallet wasn't his, but it did seem somewhat familiar.
Soon Xia Liang paused, shifting his gaze to Lu Rui'an; this seemed to be his wallet.
"Mr. Lu Rui'an, did you lose your wallet?"
Xia Liang asked while looking at Lu Rui'an.
Lu Rui'an hadn't noticed the wallet at all; all his attention was on Tattoo Brother, just preventing him from making a sudden move.
Lu Rui'an only saw the wallet in the guy's hand upon hearing Xia Liang's words, his eyes somewhat startled; this wallet indeed looked like his.
"Mr. Xia Liang, yes, my wallet has indeed fallen."
After patting around his body, Lu Rui'an's face changed, the wallet contained all kinds of his identifications, losing it would be quite troublesome when he returned to his own country.
"Then check if this wallet is yours, this gentleman just found it and brought it over."
"Huh? He's here to return the wallet?"
Upon hearing this, Lu Rui'an suddenly felt a bit embarrassed; judging by the guy's aggressive look, he thought he was up to no good and was coming to rob them.
Lu Rui'an took the wallet, checked it, and soon nodded; it was indeed his wallet, and all identifications were intact inside.
"Mr. Xia Liang, this is indeed my wallet, nothing is missing."
Lu Rui'an said, looking at Xia Liang.
Xia Liang nodded, turned to look at Tattoo Brother, and handed over a cigarette, "Brother, we're really sorry, it was too crowded and noisy inside just now, we didn't hear, you went through a lot of trouble chasing us."
"No problem, as long as it's your wallet, then I'll take my leave."
Tattoo Brother took the cigarette and prepared to leave after speaking.
"Mr. Xia Liang, please tell this gentleman, I want to thank him."
Lu Rui'an said, looking at Xia Liang.
Xia Liang stopped the guy and conveyed the message.
"There's no need to thank, anyone who picks up would return it, we Dragon Country people don't covet such small gains."
"Although I don't like foreigners, since this foreigner is here in our Dragon Country, he's a guest. The hospitality of a great country can't be lacking."
Though the guy looked fierce, he was very cheerful, always smiling, "My wife and kids are waiting over there, so I'll not keep chatting."
After speaking, the guy also greeted Lu Rui'an with a smile before leaving.
"Mr. Xia Liang, why did the gentleman leave, I haven't thanked him yet."
Seeing the back of the guy leaving, Lu Rui'an suddenly felt anxious.
"Mr. Lu Rui'an, the guy said you don't need to thank him, any Dragon Country person who finds your wallet will return it, it's very normal here in our Dragon Country."
Xia Liang explained.
"What? No need to thank?"
Lu Rui'an was somewhat surprised; although he had been enjoying plenty of delicacies these days and had witnessed the beautiful scenery today, experiencing Dragon Country's rich culture, he still held the impression that Dragon Country people liked to seize small gains.
It's said Dragon Country people go out for groceries, arguing incessantly over just a few cents, which is why many think Dragon Country people are poor.
But now he found Dragon Country people somehow differed from his expectations.
His wallet held quite a bit of money, but just now he checked, not a single point was missing.
Supposedly greedy Dragon Country people, seeing so much money, not only returned the wallet to him but also didn't secretly take any; it made him feel a bit unbelievable.
Moreover, the guy, upon being offered thanks, declined and straightforwardly left...
Earlier in his own country, people who found his wallet demanded some payment before agreeing to return it.
Compared to the Dragon Country person in front of him, people from his own country seemed somewhat inferior.
He even couldn't help but wonder, if people from their country found a Dragon Country person's wallet, would they return it readily and ask for no reward?
Soon he'd know the answer, if someone from their country found a Dragon Country wallet, they'd definitely not return it and would quietly pocket it.
Thinking about this, Lu Rui'an felt complicated; he was unwilling to belittle his own country, yet the character of Dragon Country people was evidently higher than his country's people.
"Mr. Lu Rui'an, let's go. Oh, put away your electric baton."
While Lu Rui'an grappled with his complex feelings, Xia Liang spoke up.
Lu Rui'an snapped back to reality, looking at the electric baton in his hand, feeling a bit embarrassed; facing such friendly Dragon Country people, he still considered using it against them.
"Mr. Lu Rui'an, in our Dragon Country, small matters are settled with a cigarette, big matters with a good drink, there's no problem that can't be solved."
In the car, Xia Liang said before driving towards the hotel.
Back at the hotel, Lu Rui'an sat in a chair, gazed blankly at the night sky outside.
At that moment, he hadn't yet snapped out of Qingyun Evernight City's bustling scene.
"Seems Dragon Country is indeed different from what I understood; not only is it immensely prosperous, but Dragon Country people are also very warm, treating people from other countries equally."
Lu Rui'an mumbled.
Though their Eagle Country claimed to be free, he understood that his country had severe foreign discrimination issues; many times, he, as an Eagle Countryman, would look down on people from other countries.
Yet today, Dragon Country taught him a lesson, not only allowing him to experience Dragon Country's long-standing culture but also proving Dragon Country people are quite honest, not coveting minor gains.
A bit settled, Lu Rui'an opened his computer; he could no longer resist sharing the sights he'd seen tonight with his followers, letting them truly understand Dragon Country's grandeur and prosperity.
After about an hour, Lu Rui'an managed to finish editing the video he recorded tonight, then logged into his account to upload the video.
Because of the time difference, although it was nighttime in Dragon Country, it was still daytime in Eagle Country. As soon as his video was successfully uploaded, it quickly caught his followers' attention.
