Prodigal System in the Flourishing City

Hearing this voice, the security team leader immediately furrowed his brows.

At the Thunder God eSports hall, someone dared to call out Young Master Lu by name?!

There are generally two types of people who would do such a thing.

First, those who brag without paying taxes!

Second, those who genuinely have the status to address him directly!

But judging from this person's tone, he obviously isn't the first kind.

That means, the person behind him could very well be someone truly wealthy and powerful!

Hence, just like the security guard before him, his footsteps also involuntarily paused.

Seeing this scene, Liang Lan's face at the floor's exit completely fell, and she took out her phone to make a call: "Tell me, how do you recruit people?!"

This is absolutely preposterous!

It's not bad for security to go with the wind and adapt, as it can reduce a lot of trouble!

But that doesn't mean you can be so wishy-washy that you don't even listen to Young Master Bu's words!

You are an employee of the Lu Group, so in front of Young Master Bu, you should know who your real boss is!

However, Lu Xiaobu's face didn't show much anger. Instead, he looked at the security guard, as if something had crossed his mind.

It seemed like he thought of something, but he couldn't quite put his finger on it!

But since he couldn't figure it out, he didn't want to think about it anymore. He was too lazy to think.

So, he instead turned his attention to the person who had called him out.

Instantly, a smile tugged at the corners of his mouth—a familiar face!

"Tsk tsk tsk, isn't this our very own second place from the Second Level Rich List, Zhan Longyan, who's silly from start to finish?"

Lu Xiaobu clicked his tongue as he stepped out from the floor's exit.

"Lu Xiaobu!?"

Zhan Longyan, upon seeing Lu Xiaobu's face, felt all the new and old hatred surge up in his heart!

Let's not talk about the old grudges first, and focus on the new ones!

You, Lu Xiaobu, are after all someone on the Second Level Rich List, in Shimen you are considered top-notch, no, actually the top person!

Seeing a fellow Rich Lister like me, who ranks higher than you, you might not respect me, but should you really be openly mocking me?!

What the hell does 'silly from start to finish' mean?!

You're the silly one!

Your whole family is silly!

"Zhan Longyan, you came to my turf; why didn't you say so earlier? I would definitely have personally welcomed you! Look at this now, sneaking around! What does this look like?! People who don't know might think I, Lu Xiaobu, am supporting your affair!"

Lu Xiaobu sighed and spouted nonsense earnestly, then raised his eyebrows, "Huh? Where's your little lover? Let me have a look!"

"Lu Xiaobu! Stop spouting nonsense!" Zhan Longyan was fuming!

This Lu Xiaobu was just a scoundrel, talking nonsense with his eyes wide open, carelessly slapping on labels!

Having an affair?! Don't you see that this place is full of big dudes! Where would I have an affair?!

Having an affair with these big dudes?!

How low can you stoop?!

Now you understand why he didn't appear right away!

He was worried about this exact situation happening!

Honestly, if it weren't for that big shot saying that the conference had to be held here, he would never have come to Lu Xiaobu's eSports hall!

He had planned to keep a low profile and not provoke Lu Xiaobu!

But what happened? Man proposes, God disposes, and Lu Xiaobu ended up arriving!

And right off the bat, he was here to confront him!

Damn it!

"I definitely wasn't spouting nonsense!" Lu Xiaobu waved his hand, "Think about it! You were just paying respects to this Monk on the ground, weren't you?"

"So what if I was?"

Zhan Longyan's eyebrows were tightly knitted; he really didn't want to pick up on that topic, but with so many people around, he couldn't just ignore it.

Otherwise, it would seem as if he was afraid of Lu Xiaobu!

"That's right, since you vouch for him, it means you know him!" Lu Xiaobu nodded earnestly and said, "I do know that this Monk came here with his lover!"

At this point, Lu Xiaobu twirled his index finger at his temple: "Come on everyone, let's think!"

"The Monk on the ground came here with his lover, and Zhan Longyan knows this great Monk, so logically, Mr. Zhan Longyan must also be here to meet with a lover!"

At these words, everyone almost spat blood in outrage!

What do you mean, logically?! Whose logic? Whose reasoning?!

These are two completely unrelated things, aren't they?!

Zhan Longyan was furious; Lu Xiaobu, this vexatious trickster, was starting again!

He was just about to retort when he heard Lu Xiaobu continue.

"What? Not right?"

Lu Xiaobu's lips curved up in a cold smile: "Or are you here to discuss the Buddhist Law?"

"Of course, we are indeed here to discuss the Buddhist Law!"

Zhan Longyan blurted out!

"Oh!"

Lu Xiaobu nodded meaningfully.

Then, he turned to look at Liang Lan: "Sister Lan, please invite the journalist friends over, and tell them I was discussing the Buddhist Law with Mr. Zhan Longyan and a Monk who doesn't follow the precepts!"

"Right, also tell the journalist friends that I, Lu Xiaobu, think this is a defilement of the Buddhist Law, let's see what they think?!"

"Yes, Young Master!" Liang Lan immediately nodded, her lips curling with a wicked smile.

The Young Master is still the Young Master, not showing his hand until it's time to claim a life!

"Hold on!"

Zhan Longyan completely lost his cool!

He finally realized, he was trapped by Lu Xiaobu!

If what Lu Xiaobu had just said was spread through the journalists, then he'd be tarnished with the stigma of defiling the Buddhist Law!

What's even worse is that this news wouldn't just be a baseless rumor; it would be substantiated by evidence, as the surveillance here would bear testimony!

In such a case, it would be impossible to shake off this label!

Damn it! Lu Xiaobu, you're too ruthless!

He was counting on the help of the big shot inside who loves the Buddhist Law, but once this label was attached!

Help?

If that big shot doesn't strip him of his skin personally, it would already be a huge favor!

"What is it? You got something to say?"

Lu Xiaobu watched Zhan Longyan with a smile, like an old Hunter eyeing a prey caught in a trap!

As if to say—do you choose to be steamed? Or braised?

Zhan Longyan gritted his teeth, glaring death at Lu Xiaobu, and then spat out word for word: "I'm here to meet my lover!"

Between the two options, he could only choose the lesser of two evils!

"Oh! So you're here to meet with a lover!"

Lu Xiaobu nodded in satisfaction.

"Lu Xiaobu, are you satisfied now?!"

Zhan Longyan said through gritted teeth.

Meeting with a lover it is, his reputation might take a hit, but compared to defiling the Buddhist Law, it seemed slightly better!

"Yes, satisfied, of course I'm satisfied." Lu Xiaobu turned his head to look at Liang Lan: "Sister Lan, tell the journalist friends that our Second Level Rich List's Mr. Zhan Longyan, along with a Monk who doesn't observe the precepts, are here to meet with their lovers, and they're so bold as to euphemistically call it discussing the Buddhist Law!"

Sorry, I, as the Hunter, prefer to steam before braising, the meat becomes much more tender that way!
