Prodigal System in the Flourishing City

Chapter 762: Chapter 780: Getting on the Sedan Chair

Guan Changsheng’s panicked expression on stage was noticed by the audience.

Thus, the tide gradually began to turn.

”What’s with the silence for such a long time?!”

”Yeah! This isn’t how Young Master Bu’s people should act!”

”I’m also feeling something’s off. Young Master Bu’s men are always ready to throw down, not hesitate! Quick to slap faces, not to posture, how could they be dawdling like this?!”

”Could it be that Guan Changsheng has no work to present?!”

”No way! If that were the case, wouldn’t it just be empty talk?!”

”Right! If that’s true, then it’s wrong on Lu Xiaobu’s side!”

”...”

The atmosphere of the entire exhibition was turning unfavorable.

Indeed, there were some astute people who began to realize something was amiss!

But, they also couldn’t instantly conclude that Lu Xiaobu had been tricked!

After all, Lu Xiaobu has always been the one doing the tricking, when has he ever been tricked?!

Moreover, confronting Japan like this, truly does fit Lu Xiaobu’s style!

And at this moment, Lu Xiaobu had already arrived at the entrance.

Regarding this matter, the whole world knew, how could he not?!

So, at first glance, his gaze collided with Zhan Longyan’s.

”Bang!”

Sparks flew!

Lu Xiaobu looked at Zhan Longyan with a cold and sharp glare, similar to the intense vibe radiating from Lin Feng.

We all know when Lu Xiaobu adopts such a look.

It’s when someone has hurt his people.

That’s just his temperament, pick a fight with him, and it’s fine, no big deal.

After all, business competition, the back and forth, it’s all normal!

But!

Don’t you dare mess with his people!

Not even Lin Feng would dare, yet you, Zhan Longyan, have the audacity to such extent!

You really have a nerve!

Zhan Longyan’s gaze was sinister and lingering, his stare malevolently fixed on Lu Xiaobu!

Lu Xiaobu, this time, you’ve walked into the line of my fire!

Your own seeking of death is entirely outside of our agreement!

So don’t expect any mercy from me!

Each standing their ground, a fleeting mistake!

Zhan Longyan launched another provocation, looking at Guan Changsheng on stage, he said: ”Hey, Guan Changsheng, the bamboo art master from Lu Xiaobu’s house, old man, aren’t you going to present something!? Surely you don’t have nothing!”

That statement was harsh enough.

A blatant mockery, calling out the person by name!

In a nutshell – if Guan Changsheng is no good, then you, Lu Xiaobu, are disgraced!

Guan Changsheng grew more anxious, now he probably guessed what was going on!

But, because he guessed it, he became even more nervous!

Now that Young Master Bu is here, if he loses, Young Master Bu will also lose face!

He doesn’t want to lose, but he really doesn’t have any so-called art piece!

”Hahaha!” Zhan Longyan burst into laughter.

This was the smile of a victor.

He was sure of victory!

Wasn’t he?!

Hearing this laughter, the five Japanese also started laughing.

”It seems our Heavenly Dynasty friend truly hasn’t prepared anything!”

”Alas, they just made empty boasts to mock us, and look, we took it seriously!”

”Tsksk, such a situation wouldn’t occur in Japan, it’s really unbearable!”

”Whether it’s unbearable or not, this kind of failure to keep promises cannot be bolstered!”

”Indeed, it’s disheartening!”

”To talk big, but to have no actual substance, what do you make of this, tsksk!”

”...”

The Japanese’s sarcastic remarks made the Heavenly Dynasty audience exceedingly uncomfortable.

”Young Master Bu, are we really pulling a fast one on everyone?”

”Yeah, you never do such things, right?”

”Or is there some secrecy involved here?”

”Secrecy or not, being mocked by the little brats like this is something I can’t stand!”

”Exactly! Who would put up with this? But if we really don’t have anything to show, you’d have no leg to stand on!”

”That’s just it, isn’t it? Otherwise, why would we feel so bottled up!”

”How about this? Let’s just find something to fill in?!”

”Do you think this is child’s play, that we can just substitute something at will?!”

”Indeed, they aren’t fools, you know! Besides, we’re not the judges! If we were, we could’ve put on a show. But alas!”

”...”

The audience from the Heavenly Dynasty was less and less optimistic, everyone was both angry and anxious!

Zhan Longyan grew even more smug, looking at Lu Xiaobu: ”If you guys don’t have any entries, how about we just end this farce now?!”

As he spoke, Zhan Longyan’s gaze became increasingly mocking: ”Of course, this isn’t exactly a formal competition; it’s really just a farce! So, Lu Xiaobu, just apologize to everyone and let’s call it a day!”

At this point, he couldn’t help but start laughing!

Xia Jie, oh Xia Jie, you wimped out, but not me!

What you couldn’t do, I will do, and after this is over, you’ll see which of us two is really the best!

I am someone who can even make Lu Xiaobu bow down!

”Who said we don’t have an entry?”

Lu Xiaobu then sneered, looking at Zhan Longyan.

”You do?!”

Zhan Longyan frowned.

That’s impossible!

He had thoroughly inquired; there shouldn’t be anything!

Could it be that Lu Xiaobu is bluffing!?

Right, quite possible. After all, Lu Xiaobu is known for not playing by the rules!

So, Zhan Longyan provoked even more: ”Oh?! Is that so?! Then bring it out!”

”Fine!”

Lu Xiaobu didn’t hesitate: ”Zhang Meng, Li Jin, carry the sedan chair in!”

”Yes!”

Zhang Meng and Li Jin responded.

A sedan chair?!

Zhan Longyan’s brows furrowed deeply.

He did remember such a sedan chair.

He hadn’t looked closely, but he had a memory of it!

After all, this thing is quite eye-catching in this era!

It was the very sedan chair that Lu Xiaobu arrived in, the one receiving the delicately carved little girl.

Could it be that Lu Xiaobu is planning to use this sedan chair to brush us off?!

Even though this thing is also made of bamboo!

But this is going too far!

Not just him; the five Japanese individuals and the American collector were all dumbfounded!

This is supposed to be an art contest!

What’s the meaning of bringing in a sedan chair?!

Using a child’s toy sedan chair to brush us off?!

Isn’t this going a bit too far?!

”What do you mean by this, Xiaobu-kun?”

The Japanese artist that considered technical prowess as art furrowed his eyebrows and bluntly asked.

He really couldn’t understand!

”Shut up!”

Lu Xiaobu gave him a glance and said indifferently, ”You’re not worthy of speaking to me.”

Hearing Lu Xiaobu’s words, the Japanese artist was suddenly speechless!

At the same time, his face flashed with anger!

This Lu Xiaobu had gone too far!

He exchanged glances with the other Japanese—Fine! If that’s how you want it, then bring it! Come on!

When your so-called sedan chair is brought up, you’ll know what it means to be shamed!
