Chapter Index

    10 PM.

    Xu Shaochen was sending Mei Liangying home.

    “I’m going inside now. Bye-bye.”

    At the entrance of the Villa Area, Mei Liangying was holding her bag and spoke to Xu Shaochen.

    “Wait, there’s something dirty on your face.”

    Xu Shaochen called out to her, speaking with a serious tone.

    “Is there?” Mei Liangying was suspicious, reaching for a mirror to check.

    “Let me handle it for you.”

    As Xu Shaochen spoke, he stepped forward and touched Mei Liangying’s luscious red lips, then kissed her.

    Boom! Mei Liangying’s mind went blank for a moment before she started struggling desperately, hitting Xu Shaochen.

    However, her strength was like that of a chick against Xu Shaochen, as he held her tightly, making her unable to move.

    Mei Liangying finally resigned herself, her resistance weakened until it was almost nothing, closing her eyes and allowing Xu Shaochen to act as he wished.

    After a while, they separated.

    “Well, I’m going inside now.”

    Mei Liangying, face flushed, hurriedly tidied her slightly disheveled dress and rushed into the Villa Area.

    Turns out, what they said online was true. Men like to fidget with their hands when kissing.

    “Goodnight!”

    Xu Shaochen shouted after Mei Liangying’s retreating form, causing her to flinch and quicken her pace, head down.

    Ugh, so embarrassing! “Back to the hotel.”

    Xu Shaochen turned and got into the car, feeling very pleased, even humming a tune.

    From holding hands to wrapping an arm around her waist, now a kiss. Could complete conquest be far off?

    ………

    When he returned to the hotel, Xu Shaochen found an unexpected visitor waiting for him.

    “Hey, you damn chick, you’re finally back. You’ve kept me waiting for half an hour.”

    Tom saw Xu Shaochen and stormed up angrily.

    But before he could approach Xu Shaochen, the bodyguard stopped him.

    “Chick, relax. I’m just here to deliver a challenge today, not to sneak a punch and kill you.”

    Tom raised his hands, flaunting a challenge letter in one hand while looking mockingly at Xu Shaochen.

    “Zheng Nan’s people?”

    Upon seeing the challenge letter, Xu Shaochen immediately understood who this arrogant fool was.

    “Kid, dare to face me? Dare to test your skills against mine?”

    Tom looked at Xu Shaochen with a provocative gaze.

    Xu Shaochen lightly shook his head with a smile.

    Seeing Xu Shaochen shake his head, Tom sneered, “Chick, are you afraid? Don’t worry, I’ll go easy on you and will only disable you at most.”

    “I’m afraid I might lose control and kill you.” Xu Shaochen approached Tom, staring at him as he spoke.

    Tom taunted, “With that monkey-dancing Longguo kung fu of yours? I’ll show you how your ridiculous kung fu is worthless against boxing.”

    “Eat well tonight if you can, you might not be able to again.”

    With that, Xu Shaochen snatched the challenge letter from Tom’s hand and walked to his room.

    Tom stepped back to block Xu Shaochen but was smugly looking at him.

    The next second, ten handguns were aimed at Tom.

    And the reason for ten was because there were two more people in the car guarding to prevent anyone from planting a bomb.

    “OK, OK. See you tomorrow.”

    Tom raised his hands and then carefully moved aside, standing by the wall.

    His boxing was unbeatable, but he couldn’t punch bullets away.

    “Idiot.”

    Xu Shaochen spat the words calmly at him, then walked towards the room at the end of the hallway without looking back.

    “Damn it, I hope you’re as arrogant tomorrow.”

    Tom cursed, gritting his teeth, and then entered the elevator.

    Shortly after Xu Shaochen returned to his room, Mei Liangxin, Zhao Qing, and Zhang Wei arrived.

    “Didn’t you go to the bar?”

    Xu Shaochen looked at Zhang Wei and Zhao Qing quizzically.

    The two shrugged, “We went and came back. Getting old, can’t keep up with the youngsters, can’t handle it.”

    “Just now a white-skinned guy was waiting for you at the door, delivering a challenge letter. I wanted him to give it to me, but he insisted on waiting for you. Did you see him?”

    Mei Liangxin looked at Xu Shaochen and said.

    “Look, they even pulled a formal challenge, all geared up. Do they plan on having a ceremonious death?”

    Xu Shaochen pointed at the challenge letter on the table.

    “Do well tomorrow, leave the rest to us!”

    Mei Liangxin picked up the challenge letter, glanced at it, and then spoke to Xu Shaochen.

    Xu Shaochen felt an ominous premonition: “What are you going to do?”

    “Hehe, of course, seize the chance to earn some pocket money. We’re all set.”

    The three of them chuckled slyly, everything left unspoken.

    “Pocket money?”

    Xu Shaochen was puzzled, shook his head, and didn’t ask further.

    …………

    The next day.

    At the Songshan Stadium, this was the dueling venue.

    Xu Shaochen finally realized what Mei Liangxin meant by earning pocket money.

    “To get in and watch the duel, buy tickets here, or you won’t be allowed in,” Mei Liangxin, Zhang Wei, and Zhao Qing were holding stacks of tickets and shouting.

    “What the heck, we have to buy tickets? Nobody mentioned this. Are you guys fakes?”

    “Yeah, and 188 per ticket? That’s too steep!”

    “Fake? What a joke. We have the proper authorization from contestant Xu Shaochen.”

    Mei Liangxin said righteously, even pulling out a photo of himself eating barbecue with Xu Shaochen to prove legitimacy.

    “Fine, fine, I’ll buy. Just like feeding dogs.”

    “Watch your mouth! Hurry up if you’re feeding!” Mei Liangxin scolded.

    Xu Shaochen watched from the car, his mouth twitching uncontrollably, feeling an urge to smash their stall.

    I’m fighting, yet these three took the chance to sell tickets and make money? Shameless!

    When the spectators came in almost enough, Xu Shaochen got out of the car with a dark face and walked toward the three.

    “This is damn lucrative. It’s only been a bit and already pocketed 200,000.”

    “Later we’ll sell drinks and popcorn, more extra income.”

    The three of them were counting money, imagining a bright future.

    “Knock, knock, knock—”

    Xu Shaochen knocked on the table, looking down at the three.

    “Buy a ticket, leave the money, and let yourself in.”

    Mei Liangxin said without looking up.

    “Can’t I get in for free?” Xu Shaochen asked with a forced smile.

    “What, you want a freebie? What a joke!” Mei Liangxin said, looked up, then his face changed into a flattering smile, “Brother, just kidding. Please, go ahead.”

    “Are you even human? Using me to make money!” Xu Shaochen said through clenched teeth.

    Mei Liangxin spoke earnestly, “Brother, don’t let the fat go to outsiders. If we don’t earn, someone else will. We’ll give you a share for the authorization.”
