Prodigal System in the Flourishing City

Chapter 352: Chapter 351 This is Not a Threat [5th update, 8th additional update for Alliance Hierarch watching typhoons at the windowsill]

Lu Xiaobu no longer cared about public opinion and had Zhang Meng drive straight to Zhu Zhixi’s location!

Deep down, he knew that he couldn’t kill Zhu Zhixi today, for Zhu Zhixi must have made all the preparations to dare such a move!

But, prepared or not, he was prepared!

Today, at the very least, he would break one of his legs!

You allowed my man to suffer a wine bottle hit, so I shall ensure you break a leg!

Liang Lan was beside herself with worry.

After all, once they went there, a conflict was 100 percent certain to occur, and then, if any problem emerged, it really would be a mess!

However, she did not try to persuade Lu Xiaobu.

Because she knew that in Young Master Bu’s eyes, rules, reputation, public opinion—he could disregard them all.

What he cared about was his people!

Defending his own people, unconditionally defending them!

That’s why Young Master Bu had so many people following him devotedly!

...

Heading straight to the seat of Zhu Zhixi.

But Zhu Zhixi was utterly fearless and even delivered a public speech at this time.

He was waiting for Lu Xiaobu, waiting for Lu Xiaobu to come to him.

If Lu Xiaobu dared to lay a finger on him.

Under the current public opinion, he would completely destroy Lu Xiaobu.

Then, he would rise to greatness in one move!

Thinking about it, it was truly delightful!

”Bang!”

Lu Xiaobu slammed the car door hard.

When he arrived, Zhu Zhixi had just finished giving a speech criticizing Lu Xiaobu.

The two encountered each other at the entrance of the speech venue.

Lu Xiaobu stood below the steps.

Zhu Zhixi stood above them.

Lu Xiaobu’s expression was as still as water, his rage seething!

While Zhu Zhixi had a cold smirk on his face, confident of victory.

He even felt a hint of smugness in his heart—everything was going according to his plan.

What if you are Lu Xiaobu, who plays by no rules?

You should know that you are now the public enemy.

Would you dare to touch me?

Or would you dare to make a move on me for a mere employee?

Perhaps you dare, and perhaps you would!

But what then?

If you make a move, that would make me happy; if you don’t, I’d actually be unhappy!

Come on! Hit me, Lu Xiaobu!

Zhu Zhixi’s provoking gaze instantly shot towards Lu Xiaobu, sparking intense friction with Lu Xiaobu’s angry eyes in mid-air!

The journalists around immediately became excited at the scene.

However, they were all interviewing Zhu Zhixi, fully aware of Lu Xiaobu’s attitude towards them, careful not to get hit!

”May I ask, Teacher Zhu, Lu Xiaobu has arrived, and it seems he’s here for you, do you have anything you’d like to say to him?” a journalist asked.

Now that Lu Xiaobu was here, especially in a rage, he dared not ask too sharp a question.

Careful to avoid getting hit.

Right, wait for Lu Xiaobu to leave, then exaggerate the story!

”Say? I have nothing to say to such a morally corrupt person! By the way, please relay this to him, as I do not wish to speak to him directly, tell him, no use trying to buy me over or to intimidate me, both are useless!”

Zhu Zhixi spoke arrogantly.

His demeanor was even more nauseating than his posts on Weibo.

He acted as if he had Lu Xiaobu completely figured out.

The journalists around immediately had their eyes light up at his words.

What splendid remarks!

Big news, indeed big news!

Zhu Zhixi did not mince his words, and Lu Xiaobu, standing at the foot of the stairs, could hear everything clearly.

Zhang Meng was incensed and wanted to beat that bastard dead!

But Li Jin, following Liang Lan’s order, immediately restrained Zhang Meng.

Liang Lan turned her head back with a stern warning in her eyes—Follow Young Master Bu’s orders, do not take any independent action!

Was she not infuriated?

She was also very angry, but she believed that Young Master Bu would have his way of handling things.

Obey orders, that’s all; even if they really were to beat up this bastard, they had to wait for Young Master Bu to speak.

Would Lu Xiaobu lash out directly?

Sure, but also not sure!

”One Million Dragon Capturing Hands!”

”Bang!”

”Crack!”

Zhu Zhixi, who was smugly gazing at the silent Lu Xiaobu, suddenly felt a sharp pain in his right leg.

His right leg instantly lost all strength, and he toppled forward.

He was already standing on the steps, and now he began to tumble down the stairs!

”Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang!”

Zhu Zhixi’s body violently collided with the stairs!

Accompanying the sound of impacts were screams of agony!

”Ah!”

”Help me!”

”Ah!”

”...”

The reporters went mad!

”What happened?”

”Did Teacher Zhu lose his footing?”

”Quick, save him!”

”Do you think this has anything to do with Lu Xiaobu?”

”Nothing to do with him at all! He was standing at the bottom!”

”...”

”Bang!”

The final loud sound!

The previously arrogant Zhu Zhixi...

In just a few seconds...

Had tumbled from the high steps, his body covered in wounds, like a dead dog...

Fell at Lu Xiaobu’s feet.

This time, it was Lu Xiaobu’s turn to look down on him.

Lu Xiaobu’s gaze was cold as he looked at Zhu Zhixi lying at his feet.

He squatted down by Zhu Zhixi and said with an icy voice:

”Don’t worry, I won’t bribe you, nor will I intimidate you. But, if there is a next time, you won’t live to see tomorrow’s sun! This is not a threat.”

Having said this, Lu Xiaobu turned around, got into his car, and sped away.

Leaving only Zhu Zhixi behind with a face full of shock and fear, shivering in the exhaust fumes!

What on earth happened?

Why did he roll down from there?

Why was his leg broken!?

He knew clearly it was because his leg broke that he rolled down, not the other way around!

And for sure, the broken leg had everything to do with Lu Xiaobu!

His heart was filled with panic!

The words from Lu Xiaobu about him not seeing tomorrow’s sun kept echoing in his mind.

Indeed, it was not a threat!

But a notification!

The reporters started interrogating frantically.

”Teacher Zhu, what happened to you? Is it a health issue?”

”Or is it because of the pressure from Lu Xiaobu?”

”Or is it something else?”

”...”

Facing these reporters who, instead of sending him to the hospital, kept questioning him, Zhu Zhixi felt extremely irritated!

He truly wanted to curse out these idiots!

But, he couldn’t!

Even more so, when faced with the reporters’ inquisition, he couldn’t possibly say this had anything to do with Lu Xiaobu.

He was now an educator, he couldn’t talk about such superstitious nonsense; otherwise, if his persona collapsed, his fate would be imaginable!

Before, he was excited that he could play with the high and mighty Lu Xiaobu by leveraging his status as an ’educator’, but now, he bitterly hated this identity!

It was this very identity that thoroughly bound him!

Of course, he didn’t have time to worry about this now; what he needed to focus on was how to survive!

To survive under Lu Xiaobu’s hand!

However, as for Lu Xiaobu, was this issue with Zhu Zhixi settled just because he had been punished?

What a joke!?
