Urban All-Round Master

Chapter 591: Chapter 584: Don’t Mess with Me, I’m Very Poor

”This, this...”

Shao Huo was also confused. After a long pause, he finally realized that Lin was trying to help him save face.

”Shao Huo, is this, is this true?” The girl finally began to show some emotion, her heavily made-up face almost expressing a strange and annoying charm.

”Young Master, if there’s nothing else, let’s go. We don’t bother talking to poor people who drive little BMWs like this. Master has instructed us to reduce our interactions with such people in the future,” Lin Zifeng said as sincerely as he could.

However, Shao Huo simply nodded faintly. Under the girl’s shocked and bewildered gaze, he didn’t even look back as he turned and left.

The girl was stunned.

Inside, she regretted it so much—

Until the two men drove the car into a quieter garage in the city area.

Shao Huo puffed fiercely on his cigarette, holding back a flood of unsaid words.

This invisible hurt inflicted on him was something he might remember for the rest of his life.

”Smoke less, what’s the big deal? Clench your teeth, everything will pass eventually; if you take it too seriously, you’ve already lost,” Lin Zifeng said, patting his shoulder comfortingly.

”Lin, but I really did take it seriously this time, this is my first love. Even though it’s just online dating, aren’t there so many shut-ins dating online? And we geeks tend to get really involved, once we fall in love, we give it our all.”

”Try to let it go a bit. Taking things too seriously may not be good for you or her. Remember, that’s just how the world works. Don’t take anyone or anything too seriously. Don’t hold others too high, and don’t sell yourself short. In this bustling society, everyone is thinking about how to stand out and climb the ladder. In this sea of people, you are but a tiny grain of sand,” Lin Zifeng said, exhaling a deep puff of smoke. He hadn’t intended to tell him all this, thinking it was too trite and that many wouldn’t understand.

But now.

This guy was heartbroken, so saying it might not be so bad.

”Alright, that’s all I’ll say for today. Take it in if you can, let it go if you can’t. Regardless, the sun will rise tomorrow just the same, and you still have to face living on. I don’t want to see a gloomy face then. Cheer up.”

With that, Lin Zifeng slapped his thigh and walked off.

Leaving Shao Huo alone, unwilling to leave for a long time.

...

That night, Shao Huo’s heartache from his breakup compelled him to gather a few brothers together.

Thinking about the pain of the breakup was unbearable.

Although it was just a small online romance, for Shao Huo it meant a lot.

”Forget it, Brother Shao, it’s just a woman. She’s the one at loss here for not appreciating you. Brother Shao can have any woman he wants in the future.”

”Yeah, Brother Shao, don’t be too sad. A man with money is charming; without it, life’s just tougher. It’s not a big deal. As long as we brothers stick together, no matter what happens, we can handle it together, right?”

”Right, Brother Shao, don’t take this too seriously. We’re still young. This is such a trivial matter. Don’t forget, we’re all following your lead. If you fall into despair, what will happen to us?”

After his brothers soothed him, Shao Huo gradually calmed down. To be honest, he had truly fallen for her this time.

Having been single for so many years, he finally found someone to date. But what happened? He just ran into this bloody mess. Thinking about it made him feel like he couldn’t catch his breath.

It’s just despicable!

”Got it, thanks, brothers. This time, I thought it through, I saw clearly. A man needs money to connect with anyone, that saying is indeed true.”

”Yeah,” Shao Huo said, ”life always makes you fall for a few dogs, forcing you to grow up. Plus, although that woman was a bit opportunistic... at least she didn’t really do anything to Shao Huo.”

A bald guy with a drink in his hand wanted to clink glasses with Shao Huo, but Shao Huo was still fretting.

”Come on, Shao Huo, let’s cast aside all these displeasures, and let’s have a good drink, just us brothers.”

”Alright. Since the brothers have advised me so, what more do I have to say. Dammit. It’s infuriating, I can’t stand it. I just don’t get it. If she didn’t like me, why did she flirt with me? She even had an online romance with me. I blame myself for being such a fool. Before I really knew what she was about, I had already committed everything to her. If I had known it would end like this, I would never have thrown myself at her like a moth to a flame.

Luckily, Brother Lin helped me save some face, otherwise my face, Shao Huo’s face, would’ve been completely lost.”

Speaking of Lin Zifeng, Shao Huo felt very emotional. If Lin Zifeng hadn’t discovered him, he reckoned he’d still be a victim of bullying.

Thinking about it, Lin Zifeng was his benefactor, without whom there would be no Shao Huo. Lin Zifeng was a benefactor.

”By the way, Shao Huo, who exactly is Brother Lin? Why do I feel he’s so mysterious?”

A guy with long hair asked.

They all knew Lin Zifeng, but no one was as close to him as Shao Huo, nor did they understand their connection. Lin Zifeng’s mystery was evident to all.

These days, Shao Huo had practically deified Lin Zifeng.

Everyone knew he was formidable, but no one really knew what his status was, which was a headache for everyone. And Shao Huo rarely talked about Lin Zifeng’s status to them, not because he didn’t want to, but because Lin Zifeng had told him not to blabber about it. He wasn’t foolish; he knew what should and shouldn’t be said.

”Cut it, you’ll know what needs to be known eventually. What shouldn’t be known, even if you rack your brains and exhaust your questions, I’m not telling,” Shao Huo laughed heartily.

Lin Zifeng was his idol. He couldn’t just casually talk about Lin Zifeng’s matters.

Besides, his relationship with Lin Zifeng wasn’t that deep; sticking close to Lin Zifeng was his good fortune.

”Haha, Shao Huo, you’re really not playing fair, man. We all follow you and yet you keep things so hidden. We treat you like a big brother, hell. It’s just too much.”

The guys shook their heads and gesticulated, but Shao Huo was more calculative and not foolish enough to just tell them.

That night, Shao Huo steeled his heart.

He took his brothers and found the girl’s house. She had a temporary apartment in Zhonghai City, rented for her by the man keeping her.

When they stormed the apartment, they did some bad things, even killing the girl~
