Prodigal System in the Flourishing City

Chapter 689: Chapter 667: Too Handsome【Third Update】

The outside world doesn’t know about the high-stakes game being played out in this small conference room!

All they know is that just half an hour ago, their feeds were bombarded with information about something called Miracle Cola!

Just like the Brain Black Gold ads by Lu Xiaobu back in the day!

This Miracle Cola launched a relentless brainwashing ad campaign at them!

And then!

Just as they got curious and decided to give this cola that’s cheaper than Coca-Cola a try!

Suddenly!

Miracle Cola, drowning in debt, announced its bankruptcy!

wtf!

What the hell?!

”Was Miracle Cola just fooling around?!”

”Damn it all! This has got to be the fastest company shutdown in history!”

”One day?! No, half a day! Wrong! Was it an hour?! From launch to shutdown?!”

”Holy shit! I just bought a bottle to try, and now, Miracle Cola is instantly turned from food to a collector’s item—it’s a limited edition now?!”

”Pfft! Upstairs 666! From food to collectible! You’re frickin’ brilliant!”

”Hey, now that you mention it, I’ve got a collectible too! Except I took a sip! Any buyers?!”

”Buy your ass!”

”By the way, do you guys know why Miracle Company shut down so quickly? Seems like they were just messing around!”

”Isn’t it obvious?! I could guess with my toes that it’s Young Master Bu’s doing! Thinking they can nibble from Young Master Bu’s Coca-Cola meal?! How many have already failed! Remember that positive energy drink? Seemed to be the same deal!”

”Young Master Bu rocks!”

”Looks like from now on, if we see a new drink, we gotta hurry and buy it—could become a rare item!”

”Hahaha, upstairs, that’s so wicked! But I like it!”

”666666!”

”...”

For the general public, this was just a fleeting farce, not worth too much discussion!

But for those big shots in the business world, it was like an earthquake!

After all, they knew that behind Miracle Company was Lin Feng!

Master Xue Yun frowned as he watched the news: ”Is Lu Xiaobu really that ruthless? Lin Feng has lost again?”

He agreed to Lu Xiaobu’s conditions more for a principle’s sake!

After all, he’d been studying Buddhism for many years and didn’t want this matter to ruin his Buddhist heart!

Moreover, he didn’t believe that Lu Xiaobu could cause any trouble for Lin Feng without the help of the others from the Second Level Rich List!

And now look!

It’s only been a few days?!

Lu Xiaobu showed him just how ruthless he could be—Lin Feng was defeated in his presence!

It seemed he really underestimated Lu Xiaobu!

...

Those big shots on the Second Level Rich List also had grim faces.

”Is Lu Xiaobu really that terrifying?!”

”Lin Feng has lost again?!”

”F*ck! It’s all Zhan Longyan’s fault; it’s all Master Xue Yun’s fault. If it wasn’t for them, I would have definitely made a move this time; it wouldn’t have ended like this!”

”A promise is a promise! After all, if Master Xue Yun says something, you’d better listen or face trouble!”

”Six months! Who knows what storms Lu Xiaobu will stir up in half a year!”

”Master Xue Yun must have underestimated Lu Xiaobu!”

”Perhaps in six months, Lu Xiaobu will be ready to compete with Lin Feng directly!”

”...”

Their thoughts and expressions varied, with shock, bewilderment, confusion, and even complaints!

Maybe someone would ask, it’s just a Master Xue Yun, right?!

One might wonder why they’re so afraid of Master Xue Yun?!

The reasoning is quite simple; even if they help Lin Feng and please him, Lin Feng might not remember their favor!

At best, they might get some benefits when he remembers them one day!

They were mostly just showing an attitude, that’s all!

But now, with Master Xue Yun from the First Level Rich List speaking for himself, they have to weigh their options!

On one hand, helping out doesn’t guarantee benefits, while on the other, disobedience brings definite disadvantages!

Tell me, which would they choose?!

...

Taobao.

Conference room.

”Lu Xiaobu, oh Lu Xiaobu, are you sure you’ve actually got some meat?” Lin Feng said to Lu Xiaobu, ”Just because you won doesn’t mean you’ve actually got the spoils!”

”So what? I beat you! And that makes me happy!” Lu Xiaobu’s lips curled into a smile.

Who said he didn’t get any meat!

Exposing those traitors ahead of time, now that’s indeed getting some meat!

After all, with one less pair of eyes Lin Feng planted by his side, it would be easier for him to act!

And what’s most comforting is—Lin Feng got stood up, which means the mole Lin Feng placed on Lu Xiaobu’s side is dwindling!

To Lin Feng, this might not be a significant win, but for him, although it’s not a feast for a Taotie, it’s certainly a decent daily meal!

Not bad, he found it quite delectable!

”You plan to get involved in online shopping next, right?” Looking at Lu Xiaobu, Lin Feng said, ”That’s quite a juicy piece! How about we settle the score in that arena?”

”I have no objections.” Lu Xiaobu shrugged, ”Whether you dabble in it or not, I’m going after that juicy piece anyway!”

”Alright then, we’ll put today’s game on hold and continue another time!” Lin Feng stood up and walked out, ”Housekeeper Jia, have Taobao’s person in charge, Meng Xiuji, sign the contract and list it under my name. I want to personally take over this website!”

”Yes, Young Master Lin!”

Housekeeper Jia’s heart leaped!

Young Master Lin is taking personal charge?!

Does this mean he is gearing up for a showdown with Young Master Lu!

That suggests that Young Master Lin isn’t really taking the loss lightly!

Of course, Lin Feng couldn’t be taken lightly!

It’s just that on another’s turf, one can’t be too obvious about it!

He lost, thinking he had a strong hand that could corner Lu Xiaobu!

But what happened?

Lu Xiaobu blew his hand away with a royal flush!

From a full hand to nothing but a single card!

As if he could feel comfortable with that!

Lin Feng left, taking his Taobao with him.

Lu Xiaobu too stood up and headed out!

Liang Lan gazed at Lu Xiaobu from the back, filled with admiration and stars in her eyes!

Before, she thought Lin Feng’s moves were too ruthless and the Young Master might lose!

But what happened?

Hahaha, the Young Master won again!

No matter how fierce the flood, a royal flush easily takes care of it all!

Young Master, I adore you!

As Lu Xiaobu arrived at the door, he happened to bump into Taobao’s person in charge—Meng Xiuji.

”Young Master Lu, I didn’t do it on purpose. Please forgive me!”

Meng Xiuji forced a smile.

Amongst such big shots, he was less significant than a fart and could only follow orders!

”No worries, no worries!” Lu Xiaobu waved his hand, then looked at Meng Xiuji: ”Do you know why you’re guarding such a big gold mine, yet you’re not successful?!”

”Ah? Why?” Meng Xiuji was taken aback.

That was something he had always wondered.

”Because, you’re too handsome!”

Lu Xiaobu let out a hehe with a smile and strode away!

”Ha!?” Meng Xiuji stood dumbfounded!

Too handsome?!

Does being ugly lead to success?!

That’s utterly nonsensical!

You tell me, is Lu Xiaobu spouting nonsense?!
