Huang Lan feigned surprise upon hearing Chu Feng’s words, "You’re going to duel with Sword Obsession? When did this co about?"
Listening to Huang Lan, who was more pretentious than sincere, Chu Feng also couldn’t help but feel embarrassed as he said, "Cut it out. Everyone knows at this point, except maybe the street sweepers. Don’t tell you’re clueless too."
With a giggle, Huang Lan said, "Actually, I wanted to give you a call, but Tributor Zhang didn’t allow it?"
Chu Feng asked, "Is it because Master is worried that if you guys called, it would put too much pressure on , and that’s why he forbade it?"
Huang Lan replied, "You’re overthinking it. Tributor Zhang said that it’s only expected for you to win. If you lose, then just die out there. If his disciple can’t even defeat a little Easterner, then there’s no point in living. In summary, Tributor Zhang doesn’t consider this a big deal at all."
Upon hearing Huang Lan’s words, Chu Feng sighed deeply and said, "That’s really my dear Master for you!"
Huang Lan laughed rrily, "Tributor Zhang has high expectations for you. But don’t get cocky. That Eastern Sword Madman does have so skills. He must have reached the Profound Level by now and had once prepared to co to Huaxia to issue challenges. However, for so unknown reason, it didn’t happen. But a Tributor of Dragon Soul had encountered him in the Eastern lands earlier on and spoke highly of the Sword Obsession, saying he’s definitely the top swordsman in the Eastern lands, and should he rise to power, he’d undoubtedly beco a major concern for Dragon Soul."
Chu Feng, quite annoyed, replied, "If you all see him as a major concern, why didn’t you take him out earlier?"
"We did send soone, didn’t we?" Huang Lan said.
"Who?"
"You!"
’Creak’ ’Creak’—that was the sound of Chu Feng grinding his teeth in anger.
’Giggle’ ’Giggle’—that was the sound of Huang Lan laughing uncontrollably.
Huang Lan continued, "Sword Obsession lives for the sword and hasn’t done anything outrageous. How could we justify killing him? However, now that he’s challenging you of his own accord, it’s a good opportunity. Seize this chance well. If you handle this properly, it’s likely that both of us could be promoted to the sa rank."
Chu Feng was stunned for a mont and then said, "I’ve already reached the Early Stage of the Profound Level, shouldn’t I be a Tributor by now?"
Huang Lan replied, "I haven’t inford the higher-ups, and neither has Tributor Zhang. Therefore, everyone above us still thinks you’re only at the Yellow Level."
Chu Feng clenched his teeth and said, "You did this on purpose!"
Huang Lan confird, "That’s right, we did it on purpose. Revealing you too soon wouldn’t be good for you."
Changing the topic, Huang Lan said, "Besides, Sister i still plans to show off with your help in next year’s competition. She’s counting on you to perform well. If you beco a Tributor too soon, who would Sister i turn to? Plus, once you’re a Tributor, wouldn’t you turn around and bully ? So, I’ve got to take the chance to bully you a bit more while I still can."
Chu Feng felt an urge to pull Huang Lan through the phone and give her a good beating.
Huang Lan teased, "Thinking of spanking again, huh? To tell the truth, I’ve been sort of missing it lately. How about you give it a try over the phone?"
"Decorate the place nicely before Sword Obsession arrives," Chu Feng said, before hanging up the phone abruptly.
However, Huang Lan wasn’t angry this ti; instead, she laughed very happily.
The matter of Sword Obsession challenging Chu Feng was making quite a stir among the higher-ups, thanks to so instigators. Of course, this only caused a buzz in the upper echelons, as the uncles and aunties dancing in the square remained oblivious.
Regardless of how things were changing outside, Chu Feng carried on without any reaction. He went to his classes, ate his als, got his sleep, and occasionally visited the company to help with planning and strategizing for the next concert, like how to incorporate more Huaxia elents and make the concert effects even cooler based on the Huaxia elents.
"Boss, the day after tomorrow is Singles’ Day. Shall we go out and celebrate?" After discussing the concert, Fan Xiaoxiao also took the initiative to suggest.
Chu Feng replied, "You guys are singles, I’m not. You go celebrate."
Fan Xiaoxiao insisted, "It’s because we are, and you’re not, that we want to take you with us to celebrate."
"Why?"
Fan Xiaoxiao said, "Because... because... because we have more people."
Chu Feng thought about it, and the reason Fan Xiaoxiao provided was perfect, leaving him with no way to refute it.
The mont Mia heard it, her eyes lit up as well, saying, "I can also invite ngying over, then we’ll have even more people."
"I..."
"Alright, you win, you have more people. I’ll go with you the day after tomorrow, any more questions?" Chu Feng hurriedly raised his hands in surrender.
Fan Xiaoxiao had a victorious look as she said, "Isn’t this our good Boss? Today we’re eating at ho, so you go ho and get the al ready, okay?"
"I am your boss, not your servant!" Chu Feng glared as he retorted.
Upon hearing this, Fan Xiaoxiao imdiately put on a pitiful face with watery big eyes and said, "Boss. We have been eating takeout for so long, I really miss your cooking. Please fulfill this small request of ours, and in exchange, we four can fulfill one of your... unsavory requests."
Chu Feng said, "How co my request is unsavory?"
Fan Xiaoxiao said with a giggly smile, "Because whatever request you make is unsavory. Of course, if you don’t want to be unsavory, you don’t have to say it. We won’t force you."
Facing Fan Xiaoxiao, the little witch, Chu Feng could only accept defeat.
"Alright, that’s enough for today. Let’s go ho for a al, and you co over too, Mia." Chu Feng said.
"Thank you, Boss!" Mia also said excitedly.
Chu Feng walking through the market with four beauties in tow left everyone utterly dumbfounded.
They had seen grand entries, but never one quite like this. Not only were there local won, but also a foreign beauty.
"Uncle, how much for this cucumber?" This was already the third ti Chu Feng had asked, but the vendor’s attention was not on him at all.
"Uncle!"
"What are you shouting for! Just take the cucumber, it’s on the house, and if you need anything else, feel free to pick. Rember to pick slowly!" The vendor emphasized.
Chu Feng sighed helplessly and rolled his eyes, but he didn’t hold back and quickly made his selection.
In the end, Chu Feng practically half-bought, half-got everything given at the market together with Fan Xiaoxiao and the other three.
"Alright, let’s go, my four highnesses." The task of carrying groceries, of course, was not going to be done by Fan Xiaoxiao and the other three.
After returning ho, Chu Feng was busy alone in the kitchen while the four won had changed into loungewear and were watching a harem drama unfold on the screen.
Fan Xiaoxiao and the others enjoyed these harem dramas, sothing Chu Feng could understand. But even Mia, the foreign girl, liked it, which he found sowhat incomprehensible. He wasn’t even sure if Mia could understand it.
Following the sound of a door opening, Qin i also returned from outside.
"Sister i is back," Fan Xiaoxiao said as she stood up and greeted her in the manner of the television drama characters.
Everyone was montarily startled, then burst into laughter.
"Sister i, the day after tomorrow is Singles’ Day. Let’s go out and celebrate together. If you could join us, that would be wonderful," Fan Xiaoxiao continued jokingly.
Qin i was stunned for a mont then her expression turned slightly unnatural as she said, "I have plans the day after tomorrow, you guys go ahead."
