Prodigal System in the Flourishing City

Chapter 169: Chapter 169: Take Off Clothes When Disagreeing [Please Bookmark, Please Recommend]

”It’s a minor issue.” Lu Xiaobu waved his hand and said.

”By the way, I wanted to ask, how did you manage to hit Chou Zhenlang just now?”

Officer Li turned to look at the handprint on Chou Zhenlang’s face and asked with some confusion.

”Me? No, I didn’t do that. It was my bodyguard Zhang Meng’s work; he used to have a nickname called Fierce Tiger War God, did you know that? He was the one who hit him in the instant of taking him down.”

Lu Xiaobu made a serious face and spouted complete nonsense!

Well, Zhang Meng really took the fall, and he took it squarely!

”Uh? Okay then.”

Officer Li was somewhat skeptical, but he didn’t have a better explanation, so he had to believe it for the time being:

”There’s one more thing, you were supposed to receive recognition for assisting in the case and capturing Chou Zhenlang. However, currently, we want to use him to find the group of people behind him who were servicing him, so I reckon we need to keep it a secret for now, and your recognition will be delayed.”

”No worries, no worries, it doesn’t matter to me whether I get it or not.”

Lu Xiaobu waved his hand: ”If you ask me, just drop the whole recognition thing, it’s not that meaningful and it just invites resentment.”

”Um...”

Officer Li was caught between laughter and tears.

But he knew that Lu Xiaobu wasn’t wrong.

After thinking it over...

”Salute!”

Officer Li suddenly gave Lu Xiaobu a military salute and said very earnestly, ”Here, I want to personally extend my sincere thanks to you for your contribution to the stability and harmony of Heavenly Dynasty society, thank you!”

”This, oh man, look at you being so polite.”

Lu Xiaobu immediately looked delighted, the feeling of being praised, especially by a police uncle, you guys can’t deny it feels pretty awesome!

Don’t call it childish, I dare you to tear up your award certificate in front of everyone the next time you get one, then throw it in their face and tell them—scram!

If you can do that, come on over, I’ll give you a monthly salary of ten thousand, tips not included!

With things coming to an end, Yu Fei and the villagers were also taken away by the police officers. Like those involved in MLM, they needed re-education.

However, as they were leaving, they all turned to look at Lu Xiaobu as if by a mutual understanding.

No one knew what was going on.

But years later, a village known as the Village of Medicine, Qingmu Village, became a household name in Heavenly Dynasty. Each generation of theirs was made up of famous doctors of Heavenly Dynasty, overcoming various medical challenges.

And no one knew why they were so committed to medicine.

Only they themselves knew it was because their village chief would walk around with a stick every day, forcing them to read a ridiculous couplet hanging in the ancestral hall—You damn well better believe in doctors!

Of course, that’s a story for another time.

...

The frightened students clearly lost their interest in playing and sought permission from Principal Li to go home!

With no other choice, the summer camp came to an abrupt end!

And the incident in Qingmu Village, obviously, wouldn’t become known to the public until those criminals behind Chou Zhenlang were caught!

After two days at home, Zhou Jingyuan and Wu Qianmin both successfully applied to schools suitable and closer to Emperor Electric.

On the third day, Lu Xiaobu was bored out of his mind, thinking of ways to squander money!

”Young Master Xiaobu at home?”

Chen Feiyang arrived outside the door.

”I am.”

Liang Lan opened the door but was surprised to find that it wasn’t just Chen Feiyang who had come; all the celebrities from the last dinner gathering were there as well, which made her pause slightly, ”What’s this...”

”We’ve got something to discuss with Young Master Bu.”

Chen Feiyang’s face showed a hint of embarrassment, seemingly awkward about what was going to happen next.

”What’s the matter? Old Chen?”

Lu Xiaobu leaned over the second-floor staircase, asking with curiosity.

”Greetings to Young Master Bu!”

The celebrities walked in, quickly greeting Lu Xiaobu upon seeing him.

”Sister Lan, please have everyone take a seat.”

Lu Xiaobu nodded, and as he walked down the stairs, he spoke.

”Thanks, Young Master Bu!”

The celebrities sat down, one by one, all wearing the same embarrassed expression as Chen Feiyang.

Don’t be fooled by their usual swagger; in front of Lu Xiaobu, they couldn’t help but feel a bit restrained!

”Spill it, what’s the matter?”

Lu Xiaobu came downstairs and said,

”Just like I told you before! Our ’A Chinese Odyssey’ won an award, and now it’s almost time for the ceremony!”

Chen Feiyang cleared his throat and rubbed his hands as he spoke.

”That’s great news!”

Lu Xiaobu nodded, ”You’ve already told me about it! Is there really a need to repeat yourself?”

”Actually, we were hoping that Young Master Bu could attend with us.”

Chen Feiyang said through gritted teeth.

”No way!”

Lu Xiaobu immediately refused, ”I already told you last time. Why are you asking again?!”

With an expected look, Chen Feiyang continued to persuade, ”Young Master Bu, you are the one who knows ’A Chinese Odyssey’ the best. Without you, we feel uncertain!”

”Bullshit! You are the director.”

Lu Xiaobu didn’t believe it.

If Chen Feiyang, who had perfectly continued Stephen Chow’s legend, didn’t understand ’A Chinese Odyssey,’ then who else could?

”Young Master Bu, please come with us!”

Chen Feiyang pleaded, then pointed to the star beside him and said, ”Hurry up, take it off, let Young Master Bu have a look.”

”Alright!”

One by one, the stars began to undress.

”What is this? Trying to seduce me?”

Lu Xiaobu was suddenly stunned.

What kind of move is this?

Stripping at the drop of a hat?

However, after the stars took off their clothes, Lu Xiaobu finally understood what Chen Feiyang wanted him to see!

The bodies of these stars were all covered with bruises, both blue and purple.

Some looked like they were from falls, some from being restrained, others just seemed to be from pure exhaustion!

There was even a female star with bandages wrapped around her waist, with blood still seeping through!

Who could have imagined that these glamorous stars would look like this under their clothes!

”What happened here?”

Lu Xiaobu’s brows furrowed immediately.

They definitely weren’t beaten up. After all, they were stars—who would dare lay a hand on them?!

”These are injuries from filming ’A Chinese Odyssey.’”

Chen Feiyang rubbed his hands and looked very embarrassed.

Many of these injuries were caused by his excessive demands during filming!

He couldn’t help but feel guilty.

”Then why didn’t you say anything during the dinner?”

Lu Xiaobu asked with a frown, then arranged, ”Alright, everyone put your clothes back on. Sister Lan, take out another billion as consolation.”

Really, he was amazed. They were clearly injured and still had the nerve to flirt with him at the last dinner party. Insane!

Of course, these were his private thoughts; if the stars heard them, they would surely retort—it was all to make you happy! And now it’s somehow wrong!

”No no no, Young Master, we’re not here for the money.”

Chen Feiyang quickly said.

He had feared exactly this situation, which was why he felt so awkward before.

The other stars also felt embarrassed, as their actions did indeed look like they were after money!

But truthfully, they weren’t there for the money!

”I know, no need to explain. Just take the money when I offer it.”

Lu Xiaobu ordered with a furrowed brow.

”Alright then!”

Chen Feiyang accepted, resigned to the situation.

”Tell me, what’s the real issue?”

Lu Xiaobu asked.

He was genuinely confused!

What was the reason that drove Chen Feiyang and these stars to come to his house collectively to show their wounds?!
