Chapter 95 Get Ready to Pick the Bar of Soap Up!
"Big Boss! I was wrong… I will never do it again… Please spare me, just this once… Let me go…"
A short while ago, Red Bull Boss was an arrogant asshole. He then became a pile of petrified mess.
Even Purple Hair Boss was afraid of Chen. Even if he were to borrow ten of Red Bull's guts, he would not even dare to accuse Chen of anything!
"If you want to leave, you only have to one thing – smack yourself in the face ten times, and then I will spare you," Chen said apathetically.
"Whack! Whack! Whack…"
Red Bull Boss didn't argue, but raised his hand and struck his own face. As long as Chen's anger was quelled, he was willing to do anything.
"What are you looking at? I already said that if you don't leave, you will end up just like him!" Chen glared at the ten of Red Bull's followers and said, "Every one of you, ten slaps! If you can't finish, no one leaves."
"Whack! Whack! Whack…"
Once Chen had finished talking, a dozen men started to slap themselves in the face. The loud smacks echoed in the box.
Fearful that Chen would not be satisfied, all of them did it with so much vigor their faces swelled up.
That scene was a pleasure to watch.
"Boss, will you grant our leave now?" Red Bull asked submissively.
"I want all of you to disappear in three seconds," Chen said impatiently.
"Hurry hurry… Let's go…"
All of the goons scrambled out of the box like their lives depended on it, fearful of the torture they had have to endure if they missed the three-second mark.
"My God! They really left! This is too unbelievable…" the second-generation filthy rich teenagers in the box exclaimed suddenly.
"Master Chen, you are way too powerful! Those goons were so afraid of you!"
"Master Chen, you are too damn cool!"
"Mengchen really has such great taste. She got such powerful and cool boyfriend. Oh, do we envy you."
"Please send me a dozen of boyfriends like this!"
Everyone simply could not hold back their surprise, showering Chen with so much praise. They were like worshipping him.
On the other hand, a dispirited Wu sat on the ground – long forgotten.
"I really underestimated Chen… This rival is stronger than me… Only such a man is worthy of Mengchen…" Wu sighed inwardly, resigned.
Right then, a large hand appeared before him.
"Get up. Why are you sitting there looking so pitiful?" Chen teased.
"Thank… Thank you!" Wu came to his senses and stood up with Chen's help. He was very grateful towards Chen.
Who would have thought that when everyone had neglected him, Chen was the one who would come to give him a helping hand?
'Don't thank me. I could've done something earlier but I didn't." Chen confessed.
"I know, I know. You were testing me." Wu said earnestly, "I am different from Wenfeng. I genuinely like Mengchen – I want to make her my wife! Even though you are a good man, I will never give up on her!"
"Mengchen is mine. You cannot have her." Chen announced it with confidence, grinning.
"How would I know if I didn't try?" Wu said, unfaltering, "I am willing to do anything for Mengchen! Someday, I don't know when, but one day, I will make her fall for me! I swear – I must marry her in this lifetime!"
"Hehe, if that is so, you can now go pick out your favorite bar of soap." Chen laughed cunningly.
"Pick a bar of soap?" Wu looked perplexed.
Chen laughed, "You said that you refuse to walk away without marrying Mengcheng, yet you can't take her away from me; so you can only go pick up bars of soap."
"Fuhhh…"
Wu nearly fell head first onto the ground. After a long time, he finally spoke in a low voice, "Don't get too cocky! There's a lot of people out there who likes Mengchen, but I have yet to be intimidated!"
"So what if there are more guys? In the end, they would only be picking up soaps with you." Chen smirked, "Imagine that, a bunch of men picking up soaps with the delicate, handsome boy. Oh, that scene… Hehe… Must be super crazy!"
"I… I'm not talking to you anymore…" Wu's face flushed. He quickly turned around and walked away.
He was a pure, innocent good boy. If he were to continue conversing with Chen, he would sure be adversely affected.
After that, Wu went to foot the bill.
Everyone else slowly left the building. They took off in their cars and headed to the jade exhibition.
Before he left, Wu made a point to ask for Chen's phone number. Even though they were love rivals, it did not get in the way of them becoming good friends.
However, as he stepped out the door, Chen punctured Wu's heart.
He watched as Chen get into the Bugatti Veyron insouciantly, knowing the truth, wanted to hide in the men's room to cry his eyes out.
...
The jade exhibition was held at the heart of the convention center. It was huge.
When they arrived, it was already mobbed with people. As you can see, the market for jade is super-hot right now.
"Master Wu! What a coincidence!" someone said from a distance in a deliberately loud voice.
It was Wenfeng and his group of myrmidons. They were walked over, looking smug.
"How are you, Master Wen?" Wu asked politely.
Wenfeng scolded all of a sudden, "Motherf*cker! Why the f*ck is this bastard here?!"
"I would also like to know, why is it you again, you asshole?" Chen retorted and rolled his eyes.
Just when they were arguing, people around them were considering which side to take on in secret.
"Master Wen! It's been a while!" Hu Lijing and Ruguan raced to Wenfeng's side, smiling eagerly, "Master Wen, is it alright if we walked around the exhibition with you?"
The both of them had offended Chen. Since that meant that they could not mingle with Wu, they chose to seek refuge from Wenfeng.
"Of course." Wen smiled, a self-satisfied look plastered on his face, "Who else wants to follow me? Don't hesitate. After the exhibition, I will invite you guys to Heaven Club to have a good time!"
Immediately, a couple of second-generation filthy rich teenagers went over to Wenfeng's side.
Therefore, now all that's left next to Wu are Chen, Lan, and five others.
"I'm sorry, Wu… Because of the opposition between Wenfeng and I, you lost a couple of friends," Chen said in a low voice.
Wu shook his head and said, unconcerned, "Those disloyal buggers were not worth it. Let's go."
"Mm… Let's go in." Chen nodded. Again, Wu has managed to impress him.
Once they stepped into the venue, Lan started to explain to Chen about what to look out for when doing the Jade business.
"Supply is the first and most important thing you must consider! Because you can't mine the jades yourself, a steady supply is very important," Lan continued, "If you find yourself a good carving master, then you can buy jadeite (bowlder fiber) to process your jade; but since you have not found a carving master yet, you will just have to buy ready-made jade wares."
"No! I won't buy either of those!" Chen shook his head. His gaze was drawn to a booth where jade was being processed.
