Jiang Hong, bewildered, was dragged away by Zheng Wei, feeling his hand scorching like a red-hot iron!
“Hey! Why the rush? Didn’t we agree to browse the stall and then grab some spicy hotpot?”
Zheng Wei felt a surge of blood to his head, practically bursting!
His ears buzzed, sweat pouring down!
Nan God’s leeks were too potent, weren’t they?
Taking effect right after eating?
“Forget the hotpot! Let’s get straight to it!”
Jiang Hong: ???
Straight to what?
Where are you taking me?
But Zheng Wei just charged forward, resentment points piling up!
He swore never to eat random stuff from Nan God’s stall again!
Too much of a scam!
At that moment, Zheng Wei felt dizzy, barely holding on!
Jiang Hong, alarmed, said, “What’s wrong with you? Let’s go to the hospital!”
Zheng Wei shook his head like a rattle, “No! The hospital can’t save me, we’re almost there, I can hold out!”
Looking up, the destination was in sight!
Jiang Hong followed his gaze, her face darkening!
A themed hotel stood before them!
So this was the “straight to it”?
“I thought you were sick, the hospital can’t save you? But a hotel can?”
“Zheng Wei! You’re not human!”
“I came all the way to Jiang City for you, and you won’t even buy me a seven-quid bowl of hotpot, just drag me to a hotel?”
“Pah! You jerk!”
Zheng Wei was near tears, “Honghong! It’s not my fault! It’s Nan God’s leeks, they’re too strong! I feel like I’m done for!”
“Only this place can save me!”
Seeing Zheng Wei’s pitiful look, Jiang Hong softened!
She helped him into the hotel!
Zheng Wei leaned on the counter, eyes bloodshot, “Get me a room!”
The receptionist, “Sorry, we’re fully booked, it’s Valentine’s Day, no reservations, no rooms!”
Zheng Wei: ???
“Pfft!”
Zheng Wei’s eyes rolled back, collapsing on the floor, foaming at the mouth, legs twitching!
Could it get any worse?
Fully booked?
The receptionist looked terrified, was this guy so upset he foamed at the mouth over a full hotel?
Jiang Hong panicked, “The themed hotel can’t save you, let’s get to the hospital! Quick! Call an ambulance!”
[Resentment Points from Zheng Wei +1000!]
[Resentment Points from Zheng Wei…]
…
Jiangnan, delighted, headed home after closing his stall!
He gave Wu Liang ten triangle briefs as payment!
Earned five million in one night!
The system took 9.99 as a stall fee!
Leaving him with 0.01, a whopping fifty thousand!
A massive haul!
Plus over three hundred thousand resentment points!
Skill points hit forty-nine thousand five hundred!
Enough to level up like crazy!
Absolutely brilliant!
And resentment points kept rolling in!
Jiangnan was ready to go home and draw a big prize!
He had to get the reward after the Beauty Pill!
As Jiangnan strolled happily, nearing home, a loud engine roar broke the air!
A Mercedes G-Class screeched around a corner!
The massive centrifugal force lifted one side’s wheels off the ground…
As it landed, the throttle roared again!
Insane acceleration!
Jiangnan: ???
What’s going on?
Isn’t that Xia Yao’s car?
Where’s she off to so late?
But the G-Class showed no sign of slowing, still speeding up!
Jiangnan: !!!
Bloody hell!
Has Xia Yao gone mad?
Just because he accidentally got her eye socket blackened?
That was her own doing, what’s it got to do with him?
Murder to cover it up?
Trying to run him over?
Fine! Fine!
Let the girl vent!
Jiangnan didn’t dodge, instead opening his arms to embrace the G-Class’s “hug”!
“Bang!”
A massive crash!
Jiangnan was launched into the air!
Spiralling skyward!
His body spun seven thousand two hundred degrees!
Sent flying over thirty metres!
Crashing into the pavement!
A perfect landing!
With a screech of brakes, Xia Yao and Zhong Yingxue rushed out of the car in a panic!
Zhong Yingxue was frantic, “Wow! Was that Xiao Nan?”
Xia Yao, face dark, “It was him! And you just sent him flying over thirty metres!”
Zhong Yingxue was stunned, “Yah!!!”
Turns out, Xia Yao wasn’t driving, Zhong Yingxue was!
The two rushed over in a panic!
A crowd had gathered around Jiangnan’s landing spot!
“Blimey? Flung thirty metres? He’s gotta be done for!”
“Such bad luck! Hit while walking?”
“So young? What a shame!”
“Wasted!”
Xia Yao and Zhong Yingxue hurried over!
Jiangnan’s upper body was stuck in a flowerbed!
Only his legs stuck out…
“Yah! Xiao Nan, he couldn’t… he’s not already!”
Xia Yao covered her face, “A normal person would be done for!”
Just then, Jiangnan’s legs twitched!
He yanked his upper body out of the flowerbed!
Covered in leaves!
Looking at the gathered crowd, Jiangnan spat out a leaf!
Brushed his hair back!
Calmly said, “Next one!”
Zhong Yingxue: ???
Xia Yao: ???
The crowd stared at Jiangnan, eyes wide!
Bloody hell?
You’re too cool for this!
One wasn’t enough? Calling for the next?
Addicted, are you?
You’ve nailed the art of showing off!
