From that moment onwards, everyone in the ballroom looked at Chen differently. All their disdainful looks and suspicious had been replaced by respect and curiosity. However, Yap still looked at Chen like an enemy.
Hmph! After all, the
clean
Uncle Murong is the one who made everyone attend this charity dinner. Without his presence, none of us will step foot in this stupid event!
Yap looked at Chen arrogantly and said.
Yap Liangchen! What do you mean by that? Are you trying to say that my dad is not qualified to attend this event?
Xiaoyao said angrily.
Hehe…If those
dirty
people from the underworld can come and attend this event, then, Uncle Murong doesn’t even need to spend those years to
clean
himself!
Yap shrugged and continued to say with a cold laugh,
Of course, I’m not trying to criticize Uncle Murong. I just want to take this opportunity to tell someone that a clown can never do anything big!
Are you trying to say that I’m not worthy?
Chen smiled calmly and asked.
Yes! That’s right! You are not worthy! There’s no other powerful figure will come here and support you!
Yap rolled his eyes at Chen.
Hehe…Don’t worry…You have plenty of opportunities to embarrass yourself later!
Chen was not affected by Yap’s comments at all. He even felt like laughing out loud.
Embarrass myself? With what?!
Yap said angrily,
I have taken a look at your guest list! There are only small-time characters attending this event! I don’t see anyone powerful enough to call themselves the boss of Green Vine City!
Chen continued to say calmly,
This is Xiaoyao’s guest list! All these people are her connection. You have not seen my connections yet.
You? Hehe…Is that a joke? Are you saying that you have connections in Green Vine City? Hahaha…
Yap was laughing hysterically. It was as if Chen had just told him a super hilarious joke.
Mr Chen! We are really sorry for being late!
A magnetic voice can be heard from the entrance.
Oh my God…How…Why are they here?
All of a sudden, everyone was sounded really shocked. Even Murong Tian and Murong Xiaoyao were shocked as well. And, for Yap, he almost choked by his own saliva. There were five people standing at the entrance. The one that stood at the most left was the most beautiful lady in Green Vine City! Her body and face were something that can never be found on this earth! Also, her elegant and gentle presence made her looked like an angel fell from the sky! And, she is none other than Lan Mengchen!
The man that spoke just now was the richest man in Green Vine City; Lan Zhengguo! Then, the guy that stood next to him is one the most good-looking man in this city; Wu Junfan! Then, the man that stood at his left was his father; Wu Zhebang! Everyone knew that Wu Family is the third largest family in Green Vine City. Their family goes way back to history. Plus, their wealth is definitely strong enough to make them one of the most powerful family in this city. Initially, they were placed behind Lan Family and Wen Family.
However, Wen Family had been wiped off from Green Vine City. The mysterious disappearance of Wen Tiandou definitely played a part in the destruction of the entire family. Also, Wenfeng had gone into the hay. There’s no one around to take care of the family. Thus, Wu Family had replaced Wen Family, naturally. They are no longer at the second most powerful family in Green Vine City!
The presence of Lan Zhengguo and Wu Zhebang represented the economy of Green Vine City! Needless to say, this new reality brought an extremely powerful impact to everyone’s hearts! But, the impact was not over yet! There was an old man with white hair standing between Lan Zhengguo and Wu Zhebang. His status and position spoke for itself when the two most powerful men in Green Vine City looked up to him. He is the most influential politician in Green Vine City; Han Xianian! For the past twenty years, he is famous for his transparency! Everyone loves him for the transformation that he brought to Green Vine City.
He is the
cleanest
and most powerful person in Green Vine City. All of a sudden, the whole place was drop dead silence. Everyone had their attentions landed on Chen. Not only he earned massive respect from Murong Tian. He even managed to invite Elder Han and two leaders of the most influential families to his charity dinner. Chen’s connection in Green Vine City is just too damn terrifying!
At the same time, even Murong Tian was shaken by Chen’s powerful connection. He was glad that he lowered himself down to rely on Chen. It was a smart decision. On the other hand, Yap was completely speechless. All the words that he used to mock Chen earlier had turned into countless of slaps landed on his face. All he wanted to do right now is to dig a hole in the ground and hide in it.
The most important guests are finally here! Everyone, please take a seat. Don’t just stand there.
Chen smiled and said. He proceeded to invite the guests to take a seat. Yap was left standing alone, embarassed. Originally, he was one of the most important guests. But, Chen couldn’t care less about him. It was a pretty awkward situation for him.
Master! Mr. Dai is here!
A servant led a fashionable man into the ballroom. Yap started grinning. An opportunity for him to overcome the awkward situation is finally here!
You can leave now!
Yap waved his hand at the servant, smiled and said,
Mr. Dai! I have heard a lot about you! Please come with me to the VIP table!
Eh? Isn’t that Daiyu?
Daiyu? It’s really him! The famous singer from the TV show!
The song that he sang; Wuking, is so famous that everyone in the country knows about it!
Not only are the lyrics good! His voice is pretty darn good as well! One the rare singers in our country!
Is he a special guest? It would be great if he can perform a song or two later!
I’m so looking forward to it! I’m his biggest fans!
……
While everyone was talking about him, Yap already led him to the VIP table.
Let me introduce him to you guys officially, he is the famous singer; Daiyu! He is the special guest that I invited earlier to his charity dinner! Also, it considered one of the small presents that I give to Xiaoyao Charity Foundation!
Yap grinned and said shamelessly. It will be impropriating for Chen to chase them out.
However, the presence of Daiyu was a surprise to Chen.
Mr. Dai, please take a seat.
Chen said,
I’m your fans! I was going to sing Wukong today. But, I think I shouldn’t go on the stage to perform since the original singer is here!
It can’t be!
Yap spoke before Daiyu said anything.
Chapter 222: My Singing Is Really Not That Great!
It will be really impolite if Mr Dai takes away your opportunity to perform on the stage! After all, you are the president of this charity foundation! I will never allow this happen!
Yap said sarcastically.
Daiyu didn’t say anything. All he did was to smile and sit there. He was letting Yap to make decisions for him.
What do you mean by that?
Chen squinted and asked.
Mr. Chen, you were planning to sing Wukong right? I think you should just go along with your plan!
Yap smiled.
That is not okay at all…The original singer; Mr Dai is here. It will be a complete joke if I sing his signature song in front of him! Plus, my voice is not that good. I don’t want to embarrass myself!
Chen shook and said humbly.
Mr Chen, you are too humble! I think you have put in some time practicing this song. You will definitely not embarrass yourself! I’m looking forward to your awesome performance!
Yap looked like he was doing Chen a great favor.
Actually, he was laughing Chen inside his heart,
I want you to embarrass yourself! The bigger the embarrassment the better!
Xiaoyao started to get worried as well,
Xiaobei, you have spent time to prepare for your performance! You must not change it!
Before the start of this charity dinner, Xiaoyao had reminded Chen about the performance. She didn’t want Chen to embarrass himself in front of so many important persons. Changing the plan last minute is definitely not a good idea. The whole charity dinner will be ruined if Chen makes a fool of himself on the stage. Xiaoyao even started to regret asking Chen to perform tonight. She had no one to blame but herself. Also, she did make a promise to the kids at the orphanage. It’s too late to feel regret right now.
But…My voice is really not that great…I’m afraid that people might laugh at me later…
Chen said shyly.
Lan smiled and consoled Chen,
Don’t worry. We will not laugh at you…You are not a professional singer, thus, it’s totally okay that your voice is not perfect.
Wu was really envious of Chen when he saw his goddess acting gently towards Chen. However, as a good friend of Chen, he supported Chen without any hesitation,
Xiaobei! Go for it! I believe you can definitely do it!
Haih…
Chen heard, sighed, and said,
But, not only is my voice not that great, I might forget the lyrics of the song when I go on stage. I just need more time to prepare myself…
Yap couldn’t hold himself anymore. He almost laughed it out loud. He wanted to see Chen embarrass himself on the stage. So, he started to imagine all kind of methods of embarrassing Chen later when he saw Chen being uncertain.
The elders did not see anything going on behind the scenes. They started to encourage Chen.
Xiaobei! Don’t overthink it! No one in this world knows how to do everything when they are born to this world! Embarrassing yourself is not as scary as you think! You will definitely grow when you are willing to try and learn! And, you just keep on practice to perfect it!
Lan Zhengguo smiled and said.
Don’t be afraid! A young man like you should have the guts to try everything!
Murong Tian said in a deep voice.
That’s right! You will grow when you try something new! You will remain on the same ground if you refuse to step out your comfort zone!
Wu Zhebang said.
Indeed…I understand now. But… I’m still worried that my voice might disappoint the guests here…
Chen was really nervous. It was like he was preparing to go for a war.
Yap looked at Chen condescendingly. He was actually feeling happy secretly inside his heart. He said,
Mr Chen, quit hesitating. I will ask Daiyu to perform the song after your performance. So that, you will be able to find your weakness! Then, the audience will not feel disappointed as well.
But…
Chen tried to make himself look innocent.
Cough!
Cough!
Han frowned and said seriously,
I don’t want to ruin the charity dinner but seems like everyone here had forgotten the theme and purpose of this charity dinner! Doing charity is the main focus here! Performance is secondary! Don’t defeat its purpose!
That right! Elder Han is right!
Yap nodded his head, turn around, and said coldly,
Get on the stage if you are a real man! I will not force you if you are not a man! Don’t waste our time!
I might be able to sing well and might even forget the lyrics. But, I will not tolerate those who say that I’m not a real man! I must perform on the stage!
Chen raised his eyebrows and put on an evil smile secretly.
At the same time, Yap started to smile coldly and thought,
I will definitely embarrass you with all my strength if you have the balls to go on the stage and perform! Hehehe…
After that, the charity dinner went on as planned. First, Chen was being invited to go onto the stage to give a speech. The speech was prepared by Xiaoyao. Thus, it was really encouraging. Everyone clapped when Chen finished with his speech.
Soon after that, the ceremony of donating money to three organizations finally began.
[Green Vine Orphanage received 8 million!]
[North mountain primary school received 8 million]
[South lake elderly home received 8 million]
Then, Chen signed the donation agreement and took pictures with three representatives from the organizations. Lastly, Chen will be interviewed by the famous newscaster. It will be published in the newspaper tomorrow. And, the public will be able to know more about the charity. The whole thing went on smoothly. Chen perfectly executed his role as the president of Xiaoyao charity.
He managed to earn the respect of all those people from upper society. Even Elder Han kept on complimenting Chen. There will be final donation round after the performance. The reason for putting it after the performance is pretty simple. People will donate more after they have good food and enjoy a good performance.
Everyone, according to the flow of this charity dinner, I was supposed to perform something on the stage.
Chen stood on the stage and announced it loudly with the microphone,
I will sing a song called; Wukong!
Everyone was shocked when they heard the song that Chen was going to sing.
What? Am I hearing it wrongly? He wants to sing Wukong?
That Daiyu’s signature song! The original singer is here! He has balls!
Is he trying to catch our attention by fooling himself on the stage?!
Well, he is definitely going to embarrass himself! Let’s sit tight and watch!
…..
Yap smile is getting bigger and bigger when he heard the comments from the guests.
Mr Dai, please sing the song one more time after that kid finished performing! I want him to be embarrassed of himself!
Yap whispered in Daiyu’s ears,
I will reward you abundantly if you perform well on the stage.
Master Yap, don’t worry. It’s as easy as pie to embarrass that kid!
Daiyu grinned. However, he was completely stunned when Chen’s voice traveled to his ears.
[The stars fell into the river and the road is long]
Chapter 223: When Dream Became Lightning!
[The smoke that rises up into the air reflects my lonely shadow.]
[I’m just too nice! In the end, I have to experience pain and love.]
[Everything is just an illusion. Hatred is too hard to let go.]
[I’m getting obsessed with it. I will not change!]
[Am I angry? Am I sad? Am I insane? Am I a human? Am I a ghost? Am I a monster?]
[Is there a demon living in my heart?]
[I call out to Buddha, but there’s no way for me to go back! I call someone my master but the person did not care about my life and death.]
[This world is full of illusions! I can’t break the ties that I have to this reality!]
[Too hard to break.]
[It’s useless for me to have this iron rod! What can I do with my transmogrifying skill?]
[I still feel insecure. I’m still worried.]
[I just want to drop everything and leave this place.]
Chen’s voice had some kind of magnetic element. It was so different from his speaking voice. The voice managed to impress every single guest in this ballroom. It was so full of emotion. The way that Chen sang it managed to present the story of a person with all kind of skills, but the person still loses its way. Almost everyone had experienced something like this before. Thus, it wasn’t hard for them to drown in Chen’s performance.
[I want to use this iron rod to dance all night long.]
[I want to use my transmogrifying skill to create chaos!]
[Step into the sky and do whatever I want!]
[No one can escape from the bad things that they have done!]
[This hit from my iron rod will destroy you!]
Towards the end, Chen’s voice transformed again. The magnetic voice turned into a passionate and aggressive voice. The lyrics talked about the Monkey King who is so insane that he dared to destroy the buildings in heaven. He even dared to defy the Buddha themselves. All these lyrics reflected the struggles of those who would never give up and continue to fight for their path of success in the society. These people will be successful, eventually. Again, most of the entrepreneurs could feel the lyrics were talking about them. Especially those that sat in the VIP seats.
Nobody left, even after the song was finished. The whole place was so quiet that the sound of a pin dropping on the floor would be heard.
Clap!
Clap!
Clap!
Half a minute later, Elder Han started to clap his hands. If one is observant enough, one can see that Elder Han was greatly touched.
BOM!
Everyone started to cheer and clap their hands.
Oh my God! Mr. Chen’s voice is so good! It’s so good that I cried in the end!
I have listened to a lot of different covers for this son! This is the best cover so far! It’s perfect!
This is not even a cover! Mr. Chen manage to bring out the feeling inside this song perfectly! Mr. Chen is the original singer of this song!
I want the recording for this song…I want it so badly!
….
The people from the upper society started to lose their minds. They became idol-crazed teenagers.
Thank you, everyone! Forgive me if my performance is not that great!
Chen said calmly with the microphone in his hand.
What!!! This performance is beyond great!
Mr. Chen! You are being too damn humble!
Overly humble can result in pride!
…
Everyone is really hype.
This kid! He is too unpredictable!
Lan Zhengguo, Murong Tian and Wu Zhebang looked and each other and smiled at the VIP table.
That voice is just simply the best! Xiaobei, you looked too damn good when you performed on the stage just now.
Lan Mengchen and Xiaoyao were completely charmed by Chen. Both them had rested their chins on their hands. They just can’t stop staring at Chen.
Xiaobei, you are the best! Xiaobei, you are awesome! I’m so proud of you! Everyone, please don’t be jealous of me for having a brother like that! Hahaha…
Wu did not get jealous over Chen. All he did was to keep on clapping for Chen.
I thought a modern song like this will never spark my interest. Mr. Chen just light up my interest towards modern song! From today onwards, I will be Mr. Chen’s biggest fans!
Elder Han smiled. His face was full of excitement. A simple statement like that had shown the highest appreciation from the most influential politician in Green Vine City.
Chen was smiling on the stage. He was not surprised that this will happen. Everything was under his control. The mastery of sounds allows him to manipulate the voice and used the best tone for each line of lyrics. Also, the charm that increased tremendously recently had made people accept Chen easily. These two factors were the reason for this hyped situation.
Yap and Daiyu had their heads lowered down. Those compliments and clapping were like invisible slaps that kept landing on their faces. They would rather look for a tofu and kill themselves with it than face this embarrassing situation.
Chen did not plan to show them any mercy. He held the microphone in his hand and said happily,
Master Yap, I remembered you mentioning that you want Daiyu to come and perform right? This will allow me to spot my weakness. Please invite him onto the stage. I will definitely be a good learner!
I…
In the end, he did not manage to squeeze any words from his mouth.
Mr. Dai, please?
Chen asked mockingly.
Mr. Chen…You must be joking with me…You control towards voice had reached the top of the mountain! I’m the one that needs your guidance…
Daiyu was smart enough to admit that Chen’s voice is better than him. Chen had received so many compliments from the guests. He will definitely embarrass himself if he goes onto the stage and sings the same song.
After that, Chen did not pester Daiyu anymore. He turned around and asked Yap,
Master Yap, what do you think about my voice?
Great…Your voice is really great…
Yap frowned and said.
This sshole is so mean! He just lied about stage fright, forgetting lyrics and other shit! In the end, he just wanted to embarrass me!
Yap grumbled inside his heart. He wished he can transform into lighting and kill Chen, the arrogant bastard!
Haha! Thank you so much for your compliment! Please donate more later since you enjoy the show so much!
Chen said happily.
Donate…I will definitely donate more…
Yap almost vomit blood. He still needs to donate money to him after being embarrassed horribly. What kind of logic is this?!
Haha! Our Master Yap is so generous! You should be the first one to donate! Let everyone witness your immense wealth!
Chen grinned.
Alright…
Yap’s face was completely twisted. It was like Chen just destroyed his balls. The first one that donates will become the center of attention. He will embarrass himself again if he donates too little money. And, donating a huge sum of money means that he is gifting Chen money to spend around! At that moment, Yap could definitely feel the ballache spreading throughout his body.
Alright! It’s time to let you taste the best meal that you have ever had!
Chen clapped his hands and Jing Fei started to order the servers to send out the dishes.
Chapter 224: The Taste Of First Love!
After that, the servers brought in a dozen of well-designed dish trays. The size of those dish trays was pretty much the same. They should be serving the same thing to everybody. Also, the food on the dish trays was covered by a semicircular dish cover. Then, the servers placed a set of fork and knife in front of every single guest.
Eh? Does this mean that Xiaobai actually solved the food problem?
Xiaoyao opened her eyes wide and said curiously,
Those dish trays and tableware are really beautiful. I don’t think the food is going to be disappointing.
She lifted the cover while talking.
This…What the hell is this…?
Nine of ten people in the ballroom had the same question when they lifted the cover. They were stunned because there was only a quarter size of fruit on the dish tray. Yes! You heard it right! A quarter!
This is just too damn stingy!
Also, the skin of the fruit was not peeled! The hairs on the fruit skin could be seen clearly!
Oh, God!
How can one have served this kind of food to their guests?
Everyone was left there, petrified.
All these rich people here always have their fruit skin peeled by their servants before they put it in their mouth. Some even had their servants cut their fruits in some kind of fancy pattern! They can’t believe the first dish of this charity dinner is a quarter size of fruit with skin on it!
However, they found out that they have made a wrong assumption the next second! A huge one indeed!
I believe that everyone knows that the fruit in front of you is a peach. Everyone must be curious why did I serve this quarter size of peach as the first dish, right?
Chen held the microphone in his hand and continued to say happily,
This is not a dessert! This is not the first dish either! This is the only thing that I will serve you today!
What?!
Everyone was beyond shocked when they heard the bad news.
Are you kidding me? You are asking us to eat a quarter size of peach as out dinner?!
And, it’s a quarter size! Not a full-size peach!
Plus, the skin has not been peeled from the peach! How are we supposed to eat this shit?!
Mr. Chen! This must be a joke!
We will not donate a single cent if you can’t satisfy our taste buds!
…..
The whole place turned chaotic pretty quickly. All of them didn’t even care to look at the quarter-size of peach on their plates. Those women that born with silver spoon started to cover their mouths and acted like they were going to vomit. There’s no way for them to eat the peach with skin!
Yap quickly grabbed hold to this golden opportunity to humiliate Chen. He lifted up his plate and smashed it on the ground as hard as possible. Then, he banged the table hard and pointed at Chen,
You! Chen! What the hell is this shit?! Are you treating us like some kind of beggar? Is this how you treat us when we take out our time to come and support you?! This is pure arrogance!
More and more negative comments started to surface after Yap stood up and criticized Chen publicly. One can see that Elder Han was not happy about it as well. He did enjoy Chen’s singing just now but he was extremely uncomfortable with Chen’s poor manner. He had never experienced something like this in his entire life.
On the other hand, Murong Tian and Wu Zhebang were not angry at all. They were actually puzzled by it.
Wu Junfan frowned and complained,
Xiaobei! Wrong move! I feel embarrassed for you…
Shit…Shit…The charity dinner that I poured my heart in is completely ruined by this stupid Chen!
Xiaoyao gritted. She was so worried that her eyes started to get teary.
Xiaoyao…Don’t worry…Xiaobei did not ruin this dinner…
Lan smiled and consoled Xiaoyao. Then, she lifted up her plate and walked onto the stage.
Eh? What is Mengchen trying to do?
Wu Junfan was puzzled.
She is going to become a model for Chen.
Lan Zhengguo put on a mysterious smile.
A model?
Everyone was shocked as well. They had their attention landed on the stage.
Xiaobei. Can you hold on to his plate for me?
Lan smiled and handed over the plate to Chen.
It’s my pleasure to serve my goddess.
Chen put on a bright smile and held the plate in front of Lan with both of his hands. Then, she started to use the knife and fork to cut the peach gently. This simple yet elegant move mesmerized every single man in the ballroom. And, ladies were envious of her but they just couldn’t hate her. Finally, the small piece of peach that she cut was being delivered through her snow-white teeth and landed on her soft pinkish tongue. She took her sweet time to chew it passionately. Lastly, she swallowed it slowly and gently.
A happy and bright smile started to form on her face. Her gorgeous and satisfying smile managed to stun everyone in the ballroom. Chen picked up the microphone and asked,
Next, I would like to ask my goddess to describe the taste of this peach!
Erm…
Lan bit her lips softly, smiled, and said,
That’s the taste of first love!
POM!
Everyone was triggered by her comment.
Oh my God! That Lan goddess is famous for her ice-cold personality! How did that peach manage to melt the iciness of her?!
The taste of first love! It must be really sweet!
I must try this peach after Lan goddess described it!
Even the goddess ate it with the skin on! I shouldn’t complain anymore! Everyone, I’m going to eat first!
…..
Everyone lifted their forks and knives and started to work on their pieces of peach.
Goddess, it’s such a waste of talent if you don’t go and shoot some advertisements!
Chen lifted up his thumb to her and said.
Stop with your sweet talking! I want a bag of peach as my reward for helping to promote the peach! Deliver them to me tomorrow!
Lan pouted jokingly.
Haha! Sure thing!
Chen laughed.
Oh my God! This is so damn delicious!
Han Xiannian, Murong Tian and Wu Zhebang were truly impressed by the taste of the peach.
Damn! This is tooooo damn good! I feel like I’m jumping around in the clouds! I feel so good!
Xiaoyao supported her chin on both of her hands and put on a contented smile.
You guys are exaggerating! What the hell!
Wu still acted like a gentleman. He cut a small piece of peach gently and put it into his mouth.
Okay!!!!
He opened his eyes wide the next second and said,
This is so yummy! I want to eat it while kneeling down!
On the other hand, Yap gulped.
He asked,
Mr. Dai…Can I have a small piece of it…?
No…
Daiyu quickly put the whole piece of peach into his mouth.
You…
Yap could only look at the others’ satisfied faces. He almost cried when he took a look at the plate that he had smashed on the floor.
Chapter 225: Mysterious Uninvited Guests!
Everyone was drowned in the taste of the peach. Most of the guests were eating it by small pieces. In order to maximize the enjoyment of eating this peach, the guests took their own sweet time chewing the peach. However, the peach would still finish eventually. All of them wanted more after the peach went into their stomach.
Now, I finally know why Mr. Chen only serve us a quarter size of peach tonight!
Why?
All the other dishes are garbage when it compares with this peach! Those expensive dishes are simply meaningless in front of this peach!
That’s right! You can give me all kinds of expensive dishes in this world and I will not exchange it with my peach!
All I want are more peaches, now!
Mr. Chen! Can I have more, please? Just a little bit more!
Mr. Chen! More, please…I beg you…
…….
All those people from the upper society looked completely different now. They were literally begging for more peaches. Their status and identities in society didn’t even matter anymore, as long as they get to have more peaches!
Everyone…Please be quiet!
Chen held the microphone out and said,
This peach is an extremely rare species! I do not have any more with me!
I was right! This species of peach is super rare!
Mr. Chen! Can you inform me when you have more peaches? I will buy it from you at sky-high prices!
I want to pre-order the next batch of peaches! Money is not a problem!
I want to order too! I can even pay you the deposit now!
I can pay the deposit as well! I will double the price that they are willing to pay!
Me…Me…Me…
…..
The topic changed all of a sudden. All of them wanted to pre-order the next batch of peach.
Everyone…Don’t worry…I’m planning to sell this kind of peaches in a large scale right here, in Green Vine City! I have chosen a suitable location for this massive peach planting plan! However, I’m still going through some paperwork and legalities. Thus, it might take some time.
Chen raised his eyebrows and looked at Elder Han purposely.
Elder Han had worked as a politician for two decades. He caught Chen’s hint immediately. He already knew of the location that Chen was talking about just now. It was the island that Chen had won by gambling.
The law enforcements had concluded that the deaths of those people in the colosseum were caused by wild beasts but things that happened before that was investigated thoroughly as well. Thus, Han knew everything that happened that day. Those who were not in the loop will think that Chen was trying to advertise his peach!
Only those who are in the loop knew that Chen was trying to fight for recognition from the government. As long as Elder Han nods his head, Chen can take over that island officially. Then, he will be able to plant those peaches on that island.
Erm…
Elder Han thought for a while, smiled, and said,
I want to promote the agriculture in our country. I think planting peach trees is a very good start! I can speed up all your paperwork through legal methods. But, I hope you can hold on to your words. No other illegal activities, other than planting peach trees on that island. Do you understand me?
Yes! I understand! I can promise you that! I will not lay my hands on those dirty stuff!
Chen nodded and said.
That’s great! A young man like you should try everything! I can see that your future is glorious!
Elder Han nodded, and there was still a smile on his face. Finally, that island is Chen’s property now! From today onwards, no one can say anything about it.
Everyone! I think you can Elder Han just now! I will start planting the peach trees after a more thorough planning! Soon, all of you will get to enjoy these scrumptious peaches!
Chen grinned and said.
Great! We have something to look forward to!
I will buy in bulk once the peaches are harvested!
Mr. Chen! Can I book your peach garden? I want to be able to eat until I die from it! Hahaha…
….
Everyone was getting hyped up again. They got really excited when the thought of having an unlimited supply of peaches crawled into their mind!
Alright! Everyone! Please wipe your saliva off! We can enjoy more peaches in the future! Now, there’s a more serious matter that requires our attention! Donation time!
Chen grinned and looked at the depressed Yap evilly.
Next! Let’s put our hands together to welcome our first donator; My Yap Liangchen!
Chen used an encouraging tone to say,
Clap harder and Mr. Yap will donate more! You are not giving me face if you donate too little! Is that right, everyone?
Yes!
Everyone was cheering down there, and the sound of their clapping was getting louder and louder. Yap’s state of mind was being tortured right now. He had no choice but to walk into the trap that had been set by Chen! After all, he is one of the most important guests of this charity dinner! Yap gritted and lifted up his heavy feet up to the stage. Then, he took out a pen to write a number on the cheque book. He can feel his heart bleeding after writing down a five million figure.
Chen Xiaobei! I will not let this go! I will make you suffer in the future as well!
Yap lowered down his voice and said.
Hehe…I will be there to play along with your plan!
Chen smiled. Then, he asked,
There’s something still puzzles me! Why are you doing this to me? I don’t even know you that well.
Because I like Xiaoyao! And, you are her boyfriend! This is why I want to make you suffer!
Yap said coldly.
Blarrgghhh…
Chen almost vomited blood after hearing his reason. After all, he was just pretending to be Xiaoyao’s boyfriend. Now, Yap was starting to treat him like his nemesis. Chen felt truly wronged by it. On second thought, this guy not a good guy! He will never allow him to hurt Xiaoyao.
Chen did not plan to tell him about the fake relationship between him and Xiaoyao. He said in a deep voice,
Just do it then! Don’t blame me for destroying your face!
Hmph! You are pretty fking confident in beating me! I love fighting with those who thought they are better than me! Just wait and we will see who will be the crying one!
Yap said angrily and walked down the stage.
After that, the donation went on smoothly.
Murong Family donated fifteen million. Murong Tian had planned for his donation. He was the donator with the highest donation on that night. On the other hand, the Lan Family and Wu Family donated five million each. The total amount of donation from the other guests was around ten million. Finally, the donation period ended with forty million in total!
Just before the charity ended, two mysterious guests crashed the party!
Chapter 226: Jianghu Internal Affairs!
This is the ballroom of the most luxurious five-stars hotel in Green Vine City. However, two monks in dusty robes appeared at the front door. One of them appeared to be in his thirties. The other one appeared to be in his sixties. Their appearance and attire did not match the current situation at all. It was pretty obvious that they were not on the guest list. Everyone was wondering how they even managed to get past the hotel’s security.
However, this is not the most shocking part. The thirty-year-old plus monk’s height is more than six and a half feet! All the solid muscle on his body made him look like a savage bull. Also, his eyelashes were really thick and his eyes were as fierce as a tiger’s eyes. A strong and powerful presence could be felt by him. He definitely looked like one of Buddha’s warrior attendants.
On the other hand, the older monk’s height was around five feet. He is slightly hunched. Both of his eyes were closed. It looked like he was constantly in some kind of meditation. This made him looked really peaceful.
The way they presented themselves gave everyone a sense of serenity. Most of the people in the ballroom respected them for their transcendental appearance.
Who are you people?
A group of security guards rushed to the entrance and stopped them from coming in. Everyone on the guest list were super important people. Thus, the security guards carried weapons with them all the time to ensure the safety of all the guests.
Amitabha…
The old monk was getting ready to say his prayers.
A muscular security guard shouted angrily,
To hell with your Buddhism! Go and beg on the street! Now, get out from my face! This is not the place for you should stop by! Errr….Ah…..
The muscular security guard screamed before he could finish his words. A huge palm had wrapped itself around on his head. He was being lifted up like nothing. The security guard weighed at least one hundred and eighty pounds!
That’s right!
The younger monk was the one who lifted him up.
Oh my God! That power is just too damn scary!
Everyone in the ballroom had their jaws dropping. They were so shocked. His arm strength was beyond imagination!
Everyone, walk away!
Murog Tian stood up from his table and walked towards the entrance.
Dad…
Murong Xiaoyao called out to his dad softly. And, her face was filled with worry.
Could it be that two monks came here purposely to look for Master Tian?
They look really powerful! If Master Tian fights with them, the battle is going to be really crazy!
Lower down your freaking voice! We have no right to mess with Master Tian’s business!
….
Everyone was whispering. All of them had their attention on Murong Tian. Chen was really curious as well. Although he’s in Jianghu right now, he knew very little about the things that are currently happening inside Jianghu. If this is some kind of Jianghu revenge business, then, the fierce battle will not be able to avoid.
Sifu, brother, both of you are finally here.
The first things that Murong Tian said was a big shock to everyone. Nobody would ever think that the underground king of Green Vince City would be related to those monks. And, the fact that Murong Tian was a monk before, created a huge impact in everyone’s heart. Other than his daughter; Murong Xiaoyao, none of them can figure out what the hell was happening right now. The whole place fell into a dead silence. Every one of them had eyes wide opened, ears perked up to pay attention to this Jianghu matter.
You did not go through the Labyrinth of Wooden Dummies before you left the Golden Dragon Temple. Also, you left the temple without any permission. You should have known that we will come for you eventually!
The old monk put his palms together and said calmly.
I thought that Sifu will forgive me…
Murong Tian said softly.
Amitabha…
The old monk shook his head gently and said,
I did put into consideration that you needed to take care of your young daughter when you left the temple. I was planning not to hold you responsible. But, you should know better than anyone that one should not touch break the Jianghu’s taboo!
I had no idea about that…
Murong Tian shook his head.
The people from the Dragon City are already starting to make a move on you. Mistakes were made when you realized your own fault!
The old monk sighed and said,
You are still my apprentice from the Golden Dragon Temple as long as you do not pass through the Labyrinth of Wooden Dummies! The abbot ordered me to bring you back, along with the forbidden item back to the temple. By doing that, it can avoid a Jianghu bloody war!
I have not left aside the thing that I learn in Golden Dragon Temple! And, I think I actually improved a lot! I think I can pass the Labyrinth of Wooden Dummies now!
Murong Tian said with a confident face. His presence became really powerful all of a sudden.
Hmph! So, you think you can pass the Labyrinth of Wooden Dummies?! You should at least beat me in combat first!
The young monk shouted. He had his eyes locked on Murong Tian.
Shall we go to the rooftop? I miss the battle that we had last time!
Murong Tian sighed.
Let’s go!
The young monk tossed aside the security guard and walked ahead. Murong Tian and the old monk followed behind him.
Dad!
Murong Xiaoyao quickly followed them as well. She knew that this day would come eventually. But, she still couldn’t hold on to her emotions.
I’m going as well!
Chen frowned and quickly followed Murong Xiaoyao. The connection between the thing that Murong Tian said before the start of the charity dinner and the appearance of those two monks was definitely not a coincidence! Chen was deeply involved in this matter as well. He couldn’t just leave it be.
Other guests in the ballroom wanted to follow them as well to check out the drama. But, they were stopped by Han Xiannian.
No one can go! Also, don’t you dare spread this matter to others! Expect punishment if you tell others about this matter!
Han sounded really serious. His powerful aura was oozing out from him. From here, we can know that this matter is pretty darn serious. The doors were already closed when Chen and Murong Xiaoyao reached the rooftop. Murong Xiaoyao was really worried and nervous. She started kicking and punching the door.
The door should have turned into a pile of shredded wood with her three thousand combat power. But, the door was not damaged at all! Not even a single dent!
This is weird…
Chen frowned and quickly activated his Golden Gaze Fiery Eyes. The door turned transparent. He saw that the old monk had his back facing the door. He stood there calmly. He looked like a Golden Buddha covered in golden light. He did not even touch the door. The door was fortified when the golden light landed on it. This is really magical.
His cultivation should be really high!
Chen was really curious. So, he activated his Netherspirit Battlescouter to check on him. But, the Netherspirit Battlscouter did not show Chen anything at all. Because the old monk was holding on to a string of rosary beads. It’s a Yang item. Thus, it stopped the Netherspirit Battlescouter from functioning properly.
I wonder if I can upgrade the Netherspirit Battlescouter? It always stops functioning when it meets a Yang item! I’m really not happy about it! I will ask Yangwang later!
Chen pouted and moved his eyesight to a further place. The battle between the young monk and Murong Tian had already begun.
Ding!
[Cultivation….]
Chapter 227: The Forbidden Item!
Ding!
[Cultivation: Middle stage of Qi refining, Health: 8000, Combat power: 8000]
Damn! This big monk is so powerful!
Chen was really impressed.
POM!
POM!
POM!
At the same time, Murong Tian and the monk had already executed hundreds of skills against each other. Their hands were blurs in the air. Several punches were exchanged within each second! Chen had three thousand combat power, but it was still hard for him to pay attention to their punches with his naked eyes. Also, their strength was beyond powerful! The Qi that oozed out from them clouded the air. The concrete floor beneath them started to crack as well.
This is just too damn powerful…If only I possessed this kind of power…That would be awesome…
Chen’s blood was boiling within his body. He figured out that a powerful person would definitely gain a lot of respect in this world. Also, no one will be able to bully him if he is powerful enough. By that time, he would be able to put everything under his control.
He knew that he is definitely not powerful enough currently, because he couldn’t even open a door. To others, Chen might have reached the top of the world, but Chem himself knew better than anyone that his journey had just begun. The world was so big and there was a long way to go for him. Only the most powerful person is allowed to stand at the top of the world. Power is the only stepping stone that will aid a person in conquering the world!
I must become stronger! I must…
Chen was really determined. The fire was burning in his heart. He now hungered for more power to fuel the fire inside his heart.
Brother, you have lost!
The monk spoke all of a sudden.
There was a huge gap of combat power between Murong Tian and the monk. Thus, the result of this battle was set even before the battle begun. The purpose of him challenging Murong Tian was to test his skill. Now, the monk was going to get serious.
POM…
The sound was as loud as roaring thunder. The monk’s punch landed on Murong Tian’s chest. He was tossed for quite a bit of distance when the immense force struck his body.
Cough…
Cough…
A mouthful of blood gushed out from Murong Tian’s mouth. He couldn’t even stand up after the strong blow. One powerful punch, and the five thousand combat powered Murong Tian was completely defeated.
Brother…You were a Kungfu prodigy! Unfortunately, you wasted your time in this ordinary society. Follow us back, and don’t make the same mistake again!
The monk put his palms together and said calmly.
Alright…I will follow you guys back to the temple…can I give this to my daughter?
Murong Tian sighed and took out the sandalwood beads from his wrist.
The monk took the sandalwood beads, walked towards the entrance, and asked,
Sifu…
Just leave it…
The old monk said calmly.
I have already decided to leave everything behind…Chen Xiaobei will take my place and take care of my daughter. I won’t have to worry anymore…
Murong Tian wiped off the trickle of blood at the corner of his mouth. His eyes were filled with hope.
Who is Chen Xiaobei?
The old and young monk gave Murong Tian shocked stares at the same time.
He’s a nobody for now. Cough… But, he will definitely shake the whole Jianghu in the future!
Murong Tian said seriously.
Hmph! I thought that he was some kind of prodigy or superstar of some faction! Only a nobody! It’s impossible for him to shake the whole of Jianghu! Hehe…
The young monk laughed coldly.
It’s okay if you don’t believe in me right now…Brother…Just wait and see!
Murong Tian laughed as well.
…
POM!
The door was kicked open by Murong Xiaoyao. However, the rooftop was already empty.
They have left…
Chen picked up the sandalwood beads from the floor and delivered it to Murong Xiaoyao. Murong’s hair was slightly messy due to the strong wind. Her eyes were red and wet. However, she did not allow the tears to roll down her face. All she did was to stare at the north direction. Chen did the same as well. He did not say anything to Xiaoyao.
After some time, Xiaoyao pouted and asked,
sshole Xiaobei, if someday I decide to rescue my dad, would you help me?
Yes,
Chen answered.
You liar! You did not even think about it!
Xiaoyao frowned and said.
Why would I need to lie to you?
Chen smiled and said,
Look, you have poured out your heart for the foundation! I don’t think you realize how much you have done for the foundation! I don’t think my charity foundation will be set up at all if you did not help me from the very beginning. Thus, I will definitely help you!
Xiaoyao felt warmth inside her heart after hearing Chen’s words.
Then, she pursed her lips and asked,
Do I have any weaknesses?
Erm…Are you sure you want to know about it?
Chen scratched his nose.
Yes…You can tell me about it…I will change.
Xiaoyao said seriously.
Then, I will tell you now.
Chen started to spill the words non-stop,
You are a savage! Naughty! Stubborn! Proud! Selfish! Arrogant! Temperamental! Violent! Abusive!
Are you done?!
Xiaoyao’s voice turned cold all of a sudden.
She was happy just now. Now, she wanted to kill Chen!
Am I really that bad?!
Last thing…I won’t say it…
Chen gulped and took a glance at her boobies.
You fcking sshole! I will kill you now!
She knew what Chen was going to say. She couldn’t hold herself anymore. Then, she lifted her fists and charged at Chen. Two of them spent some time fooling around on the rooftop. After some time, they finally stop. She managed to put the worries behind her mind. Actually, she did prepare herself earlier that her dad was going to leave her someday. So, she managed to pull herself out from the emotional burden promptly.
I still have to continue to live my life! In fact, I want to live it better! When I’m powerful enough, I will definitely save my father! It’s a must!!!
Murong Xiaoyao stood at the side of the rooftop and shouted at the starry sky. Her gorgeous face was filled with hope and sunshine.
Do you still want this sandalwood bead?? I will take possession of it if you don’t want it,
Chen asked with a smile on his face.
You can keep it. Dad left this for you,
Xiaoyao said.
What?
Chen was shocked.
Then, he said uncertainly,
I think this is a farewell gift from your dad!
Stupid! My dad knew that this day was coming for him. Thus, he had already said his goodbyes to me a long time back!
Then, Xiaoyao continued to say,
This sandalwood bead is a key. It can be used to unlock the door to the Yan Dynasty Imperial Jade Seal! I will lead you to it once you reach the Qi refining stage. If not, you won’t be able to protect it!
Yan Dynasty…Imperial Jade Seal…
Chen remembered that he first saw the Yan Dynasty Imperial Jade Seal at the antique showcase that was being held at Murong Tian’s mansion.
Is it the forbidden item that the monk mentioned earlier, that can bring a bloody war upon the Jianghu?
Chen gulped.
Chapter 228: A Hidden Wave Is Moving!
That’s right! That imperial jade seal contained the biggest secret of the Murong Family. My dad took those two monks to get the replica one!
Then, Xiaoyao continued to say,
I will bring you to the real deal when you reach the Qi refining stage. Before that, it’s not necessary for you to know so much about it.
Alright. I think I can reach the Qi refining stage pretty soon. We will talk more when I reach that breakthrough,
Chen nodded and said.
Pretty soon? You must be kidding me!
Xiaoyao opened her pretty eyes wide and pouted,
Do you know how long it took for my dad to reach Qi refining stage from the pinnacle stage of physical phase? Ten freaking years! Don’t think that breaking through is an easy job! If it’s so easy, then, the whole world would already be filled with Jianghu elites!
Just wait and see,
Chen shrugged and said confidently.
Of course, he wouldn’t tell Xiaoyao about the Red Envelope group. Everything was possible with the help of the group of members of Red Envelope group. Also, Chen’s Sifu is the Prime of Tongtian. Reaching a breakthrough would be as easy as pie.
After that, two of them went back to the ballroom to see the guests off. Although there were two monks who came in and disturbed the flow of the charity dinner, it still ended perfectly. The total donation for the night was forty million. They could use it to organize more charity events. The ownership of the Hearty Lake Island had also been decided. Thus, Chen was not worried about things going south. Also, the peach advertisement was a huge success. It managed to create an impact in peoples’ hearts. Now, all of them are calling it the First Love Peach. The product will definitely go crazy when it hits the market.
Most of the people from the upper-class society paid their respects to Chen. They even took the initiative to get to know Chen. Other than that, the well-respected Han Xiannian had asked for Chen’s number as well.
On the other hand, Xiaoyao did record Chen’s singing performance. She would upload it to the official website of the charity foundation. There, people can share the video if they wanted to do so. Chen uploaded the video to his Weibo immediately, as well. He was busy sending the guests away. Thus, he did not have time to check on the comments. It was eleven at night when everything was finally settled. Chen went home for a good rest after that.
Chen slept really well that night. But, someone else was having a hard time sleeping.
At the headquarter of Six Doors organization that was located in Dragon City, the man who led the whole organization was sitting in his office, and in the middle of a phone call. A man with a distorted voice was on the other side of the phone. He sounded like a robot.
Then, he asked,
I heard that the people from Golden Dragon Temple went to Green Vine City.
Yes, Master Poseidon!
The chief inspector of the Six Doors organization said in a deep voice,
According to the latest intel, they brought a Jianghu member called Murong Tian back to their temple.
Is there anything special about this man; Murong Tian?
Poseidon asked with his robotic voice.
About that…We are still investigating it. We will quickly get back to you once we receive any news!
the chief inspector said.
Okay…Six Doors organization is specialized in Jianghu matters. I believe that you will be able to get a hold of the information.
Poseidon paused and changed the topic,
Back to some serious matters. Did the shark that you sent to Green Vine City manage to detect the smell of her prey? Erm…I remember her being called Luo Puti.
There’s no progress at the moment…That incident happened twenty years ago. It’s really hard to find a person with limited leads…
The chief inspector said.
No, don’t you realize that the shark that you appointed at Green Vine City comes back with a pathetic amount of information every dmn time? She did not even tell us about the people from Golden Dragon Temple coming to Green Vine City,
Poseidon said in a deep voice.
Are you saying that she might have betrayed us?
The chief inspector said in shock,
But, she is currently affected by the poison of Heart Burning Pill. She will die miserably if she ever betrays us…also, their Luo family’s dream will never be achieved…
You Chinese have a saying; one must always keep one’s guard up.
Then Poseidon continued to say,
Send another shark to Green Vine City. Send the shark there under the guise of bringing more Heart Burning Pills. Test her loyalty. If she fails, I think you’ll know what to do about it!
Yes…I do!
The chief inspector nodded.
There’s a mountain called the Hundred Beast Mountain located at the outskirt of Dragon City. The atmosphere was rather intense over there. A group of people was gathered at the ancient classical Hundred Beasts Arena, ready to get down the mountain over the night. A man who wore a white robe and white shoes stood in front of the team with his head high up and said,
I never thought that the mail that Wen Tiandou sent to me before he died is real!
Mail? Master, I thought we are going to avenge Blood Dove this time?
Someone on the team asked.
We will definitely avenge Blood Dove. But, this mail is much more important than that!
The man with white robe put on a greedy face and said,
Wen Tiandou mentioned in the mail that if we can get the Wen family’s heirloom; Green Jade of Wellness and Murong Family’s Yan Dynasty Imperial Jade Seal, then, we will be able to open the door to great treasures!
Damn! How is this possible? This is not a damn movie!
Someone in the team asked doubtfully.
I don’t believe in the beginning as well. Tonight, Sky Dove informed me that someone from Golden Dragon Temple took away Murong Tian and the Yan Dynasty Imperial Jade Seal that had been kept inside his hall of collection.
The white robe guy said excitedly,
This is more than enough to prove the authenticity of Wen’s mail! He mentioned that as long as we can protect his son well, then, we will be able to get our hands on the Green Jade of Wellness!
Such trust!
Even if we can’t win the battle against the Golden Dragon Temple, we can still sell the green jade at a good price!
What a good-for-nothing idiot! This matter is not settled yet! What if our master gets his hands on the imperial jade seal as well?
That’s right! Our master will definitely get his hands on all the treasure!
Master, you can definitely bring glory to the name; Imperious Dragon! We will become the legends of the Hundred Beast Faction!
All of them started to lick master’s boots when one of them initiated the boot licking competition.
The white robe guy did enjoy his boots getting licked by so many people.
He grinned and said,
Me, as the Imperious Dragon must acquire all these treasures! I will become the Jianghu legend! I will walk to the pinnacle of my life! Hahaha…
……
Next morning, as usual, Chen woke and brushed his teeth and fed Xiaobai and Sky Wolf Heavenly Pet Food. Then, he went and enjoyed the breakfast prepared by his mom. Everything went by really smoothly. However, Chen did not realize the hidden wave that had moved in Jianghu last night. Also, he never expected the song that he had performed last night to make him extremely famous.
Puhhhh…
Chen almost spat out the soy milk that he drank when he took a look at his Weibo.
Oh my God! Is there something wrong with my eyes?!
Chen held his phone and counted the figure for a few times. He shouted shockingly,
Damn! I have an extra three hundred thousand fans! This is incredible!
Chen was in shock. It took a long time for his Weibo to reach one hundred and fifty thousand fans. But, this time, the number of his fans had doubled overnight! How can he not be shocked about it!
Chapter 229: The Mother Of All Assholes!
[Damn! I didn’t know that Bro Bei’s voice would be so good! My ears are pregnant right now! Bro Bei, you are responsible for this!!!]
[Today, my big brother asked me why did I kneel down on the floor to listen to a song. I told him about it, and he knelt down as well!]
[Su…Su…Superb! Too good! Bro Bei, you are one legendary singer!]
[Bro Bei, it would be a waste if you don’t organize a concert!]
[Bro Bei, I beg you to organize a concert! I will fly there just to attend your concert!]
…..
Chen’s Weibo was flooded with comments, likes, and shares! Three hundred freaking thousand fans were giving Chen different compliments! Nine out of ten fans begged Chen to come up with a concert!
Oh my God! This is the power of the Heavenly Voice Pill and my charm! I didn’t expect my fans to get this crazy!
Chen knew himself the best. Last night, he was the kind of guy who didn’t even know how to sing! With the help of the pill and his charm, he had managed to execute the perfect song. The song had increased the number of his fans by one hundred and fifty thousand!
If I ever decide to organize a concert, I think, I can sell the tickets at top price! Tens of thousands of fans will scream for me! The top five hundred companies will ask me to become their ambassador! International directors will beg of me to act in their movies! Hehe…I’m so excited just thinking about it! Should I consider becoming a superstar?!
Chen held his cell phone in his hands and smiled happily.
Ring…
Ring…
Chen’s cell phone rang all of a sudden.
Eh? Why would the Ice Demon Queen call me at this hour? What is wrong with her?
Chen hesitated for a while before he decided to answer the call.
Chen…Chen Xiaobei…Help…Help me…
Chen heard Luo’s weakened voice once he answered the call.
What happened to you?
Chen was shocked and he asked nervously.
I can feel excruciating pain in my chest…the toxins from the Heart Burning Pill are taking over my body again…
Luo used all her strength to tell Chen what that was going on with her.
Where are you? I will come over immediately! You must hold on! Don’t take the poison!
Chen grabbed the car keys while talking to Luo. Then, he rushed out of the house.
Xiaobei…Where are you going?
Chen’s mom shouted at him, but he had already left the house.
This kid…He didn’t even finish his breakfast! He did not even change his clothes! I wonder, why was he in such a hurry…where is he going?
Chen’s mom sighed and cleared Chen’s leftovers from the table.
…
The Long Summer Residence is the most luxurious residential area in Green Vine City. The people who live in this area are extremely wealthy. Luo liked the environment here. Thus, she decided to rent a house temporarily. Since she can claim the rental fees from Six Door Organization, she might as well choose the most expensive house to rent.
Knock
Knock
Chen knocked the door in a frantic manner. The door was finally opened, after half a minute of knocking. Luo was sitting weakly by the door. It had taken her some time to lift her hands to unlock the door. It was pretty obvious that she was in an extremely weakened state.
Come…Let me carry you to your bed.
Chen bent down and picked Luo up from the floor. Then, he kicked open the bedroom door.
Eeek…I don’t want you to carry me…Just support me while I walk…
Luo’s blush stood out clearly from her pale face. She felt shy and uncomfortable when Chen carried her. She had never been carried by any other guy in her entire life. Chen ignored her and acted like a powerful boss. He carried Luo and put her down on the bed.
You…Why did you rush here all of a sudden…?
Luo was really weak but she still wanted to ask the question.
What are you trying to say? I’m worried about you! That’s why I rushed to your place before I even hung up the call!
Chen pouted.
Chen’s attire was really haggard. He was wearing a singlet, a pair of oversized pants and a pair of slippers. There was nothing else on his body.
Luo was really touched when she heard Chen’s reason.
She pursed her lips and said softly,
Thank you…Chen Xiaobei…
Sigh…It’s not the time to get all emotional right now…don’t act like you are going to die. Just tell me, where did you put the silver needles…
Chen asked.
I keep my silver needles in my purse…but, I left it at the police station…didn’t you take them with you?
Luo counter-asked Chen.
Puhhh…Sister…Do I look like I carry silver needles with me all the time?
Chen was sweating nervously.
All he carried was a cell phone and car key. There is a silver needle in his treasure chest but that silver needle was given by Grandma Rong. It is used to induce extreme pain on one’s body. Luo will die of extreme pain if I poke the needle into her body.
What…What should we do? It feels really painful…
Luo’s delicate body shook. She had almost lost the strength to talk.
I don’t think I have any other choice but to apply the King Medicine Massage on her body!
Chen calmed himself down and sat at the side of her bed.
King Medicine? You asshole…Don’t try to take advantage of me…
Luo frowned, and a sense of anger could be sensed from her stare. She remembered that the massage that Chen had mentioned to her some time back required Chen massaging her chest. This is not a King Medicine Massage! This is a Demonic Medicine Massage! A Demon King! Luo gritted her teeth and the good feelings towards Chen had completely disappeared into the thin air.
I have explained it to you last time. You have taken that poisonous pill for quite some time. The toxin has penetrated your internal organs. You have to be treated internally and externally to completely clear out the toxin!
Chen frowned and continued to say,
I will prescribe some medicine for you as long as you accept my massage. You will definitely recover in a month’s time if you say yes to my treatment! All I ever want is to cure your pain! Please, don’t think badly of me!
You asshole…How dare you say that I have a dirty mind…
Luo almost died of anger after hearing Chen’s words.
She had seen a lot of assholes. But, this is her first time seeing an sshole like Chen. This asshole made himself look so noble while talking about a dirty massage. He even had the balls to ask the lady not to have a dirty mind when he is the one that wanted to massage the lady’s boobies!
Oh my God! Buddha! Pusha! Please take this demon down!
Take this…This medicinal fragrant will make you feel better.
Chen took off his Seven Treasury Fragrant Pouch and put it beside Luo’s pillow. The medicinal spell can be used to purge toxins out from one’s body. Thus, it slowed down Luo’s pain temporarily. However, Luo’s body’s condition was still going downhill.
Bring me my medicine…The pain will be gone after I eat my medicine…
Luo pointed the pill bottle on the table and said.
No!
Chen refused it without any hesitation,
That is poison! It will cause more harm to your body if you decide to take it! Do you want to be controlled by the bad guys? Doing all those illegal activities! Stuff that makes you feel guilty! Is that what you want?!
Erm…
Luo was shocked. She had no comeback for Chen’s advice.
Chen acted like an sshole for the sake of kindness! Justice! People! And country! There’s no one else like Chen on this planet earth! No one can stop him from being an sshole, now!
Hold on! I don’t think I ever mentioned to you about me being controlled by bad guys, right…?
Luo’s stare turned cold and she asked suspiciously.
Chapter 230: Please Heal Me!
Well, this is awkward! Chen was nervous, and he had accidentally spilled the beans. Chen had acquired this piece of information with the help of Dreamcatcher’s Bell. Also, Chen will definitely not tell Luo about how he had acquired the information!
Erm…You were drunk that night. Don’t you remember the things that you told me that night?
Chen said forcefully.
What to do, if you can’t explain something properly? You have to make up something believable! Luckily, Chen’s charm had just increased tremendously, recently. Hopefully, Luo will believe what he says.
I spilled my secrets when I was drunk?! That’s impossible…
Luo said without any hesitation.
You were so drunk that night! How can you remember the events that night?
Chen pursed his lips and continue to make up his story in a serious manner,
You were holding my hand with tears in your eyes. You told me that you didn’t want to eat Heart Burning Pill anymore! Also, you did mention that you wanted to be freed from the bad guys…I know that you are a nice lady, thus, I have decided to help you. If others begged me for my help, I might not even help them!
Psst…Who will beg you to massage them…Especially…That part of the body…
A sense of embarrassment can be seen of Luo’s pale face. At the same time, she was pretty hesitant as well. Luo knew better than anyone that she will repent in the middle of the night when no one is looking at her, for all bad stuff that she has done. Thus, she always suffered from insomnia. If it wasn’t for her family, she would have killed herself to be free from the control of Poseidon. Poseidon’s evil plan is not fully revealed yet but she could sense that the whole thing is not as simple as she thought it is! It might even threaten national security!
I have to be freed from his control!
Luo gritted her teeth and decided,
Chen Xiaobei! Come! Treat me!
Erm…
Chen was shocked. He couldn’t believe what he just heard.
Man! My charm is awesome!
Chen had just simply created a lie. He never dreamt that Luo would allow him to massage her. It’s massage time! Chen couldn’t help himself but took a glance at Luo’s delicate body. She was wearing light purple pajamas. Those soft and round boobies and the perfect curves of her body were definitely a feast for Chen’s eyes.
Oh my God!
Happiness just came too abruptly!
Chen couldn’t help but gulp.
sshole! Don’t you dare do anything evil to my body! I will castrate you if you touch my body for some other purpose!
Luo snapped when she saw the movement of Chen’s trachea.
Don’t you worry! I promise you that all I ever want to do is to make sure you recover!
Chen promised with a strong sense of righteousness. At the same time, his hands reached out to her body.
Squeeze…
Luo’s body became stiff when Chen’s hand landed on her. His hand was moving swiftly on her body like a dragon. Sometimes, Chen just touched her body gently like a dragonfly lands on water. And, sometimes, Chen’s hand moved around her body like an ocean wave.
On the other hand, Luo bit her lips and closed her eyes. She did not even dare to open her eyes to look at Chen. She felt ashamed when she realized that she was the one who asked Chen to massage her body. Thus, at that moment she wished that she could just dig up a hole in the ground and hide inside the hole.
But, it is undeniable that Chen’s massage is really effective. The pain was relieved, slowly. After the massage, Chen would prescribe some traditional Chinese medicine for her to completely push out the toxin from her body. The toxin should be completely cleared out from her after a few cycles of treatments. By that time, Luo will be completely free from the bad guys’ control!
Xiaobei…I have wronged you…Your massaging skill is really effective and skillful…I shouldn’t have called you an sshole earlier…
Luo was trying to hold on to the comfort that she felt from the massage. The seductive moaning can be heard from time to time. The combination of the moaning and that lip-biting blushed face, no man in this world would hold on to their horses.
However, he never expected that Chen will say something unexpected with a serious tone,
You are most welcome! You will never doubt my character anymore after this incident!
Eh…?
Luo was shocked. She wondered why was Chen acting so seriously. Then, she opened up her eyes and screamed,
Chen Xiaobei! You sshole! You acted like a freaking saint earlier! How dare you say that you are a good guy! You are the reincarnation of a demon!
What happened?
Chen said with a wronged face.
He did give Luo a proper medicinal massage. How did he become an sshole?
Please do not act innocent in front of me! Wipe away the blood from your nose before you talk to me! And, your pants…Oh my God! You must be having all kind of evil thoughts in your mind! How can I believe in you?!
Luo’s was so angry. Her face was as red as a tomato.
Eh??!!
Chen was shocked as well. Then, he turned around and took a good look at himself in the mirror. He saw two streams of blood flowing out from his nose simultaneously. Well, he definitely looked like a typical sshole right now!
Also, Chen is a straight man. His rocker was ready to shoot up into the sky. It was shown out clearly with the pants that he wore. It was no wonder that Luo called him an sshole.
Erm…My stuff…This is my first time, thus, you can’t blame me for feeling excited. It will be better next time.
Chen said with a blushed face.
Psssst…! There’s no more next time! I will cut off your dick next time!
The pain from Luo’s chest disappeared. Then, she jumped up, wanting to slap Chen’s face with a pillow.
Let me dodge the attack!
Chen reflexes were really good. He grabbed the Seven Treasury Fragrant Pouch and ran away.
Get lost! I don’t want to see you again!
Luo grabbed the pillow and chased Chen out of the house.
You are not being nice! I just treated you! Is this how you repay me?!
Chen grabbed the bottle of Heart Burning Pill and quickly exited the house.
POM!
Luo shut the door. Her back was against the door. She started to blush. Then, her mind kept replaying the wonderful sensations of her body just now. She felt a bit lost after Chen left. On the other hand, Chen was complaining about how unpredictable a woman could be.
Chen’s cell phone rang, all of a sudden. It was Jing Fei.
Bro Bei…Can you come to the shop for a while?
Jing Fei asked.
What happened? Just tell me.
Chen said.
It’s about the jade scrap!
Jing Fei continued to say,
Wenfeng is behind bars right now. But, Rufeng and Zheng Daqian are still messing with us. We still can’t purchase any jade scraps!
Not a big deal! Let us settle it today!
Chen touched the bottle in his hand and smiled evilly.
