Prodigal System in the Flourishing City

Chapter 876: Chapter 874: To Hell With Playing

”Why is it useless?!” Wang Tianlai was enraged once again by Lu Xiaobu’s words!

He had already been deceived, was this a blatant provocation?!

”If you could control her, would things have come to this point?! You appear bold, but in reality, you’re a cowardly and stubborn old man!” Lu Xiaobu sneered, taking two steps forward!

”What did you say?! I’m a coward?!” Wang Tianlai was furious!

Someone actually called him a coward?!

”Of course, you’re a coward! You take the so-called rules as your protection, only hiding behind them and compromising! Just like a frog in a well!”

Lu Xiaobu’s words were sharper each time, piercing deeper with every line!

”You! You! You!” Wang Tianlai was so angry he was at a loss for words!

”What? You’re not convinced?!” Lu Xiaobu sneered again!

”Of course, I’m not convinced!” Wang Tianlai roared!

Seeing this scene, Lin Feng sighed.

”Why are you sighing?!” Xue Lin asked softly in confusion.

”Why sigh?! Because the outcome is determined!” Lin Feng shrugged. ”This old guy is completely being led by Lu Xiaobu now!”

”Huh?!” Xue Lin looked puzzled. They had only exchanged a few words, how could he be led by the nose?!

”In terms of status, Wang Tianlai is the Family Head, and Lu Xiaobu isn’t. In terms of age, Lu Xiaobu is two generations younger than Wang Tianlai!”

”So, according to common sense, Wang Tianlai should be the one standing tall right now!”

”Yet, Wang Tianlai is being pushed by Lu Xiaobu to the point where he can’t say anything! Even only responding to Lu Xiaobu’s questions!”

”And those questions are about whether he’s convinced or not!”

”I ask you, as a person who holds rules and the middle way dear, who has now engaged in a dispute of pride, isn’t it obvious he’s lost?!”

Lin Feng, having nothing else to do, explained to Xue Lin, trying to gain favor in advance for the final round to come!

”It can’t be, right!” Black Rose expressed disbelief.

She had always learned to fight with wits and courage, but here it seemed like it had turned into a battle of mind and emotion!

Reason is the god, emotion is the demon!

”You’ll see.” Lin Feng shrugged.

At this moment, Lu Xiaobu continued to speak: ”Then let me ask you, if we didn’t deceive you today, in other words, if your daughter hadn’t met my second brother, what would happen?”

”It would...” Wang Tianlai opened his mouth to speak.

Then, he was interrupted by Lu Xiaobu: ”What would happen is that I would come to your house to demand her, and by then, it wouldn’t just be a few people watching, but the entire Wang Family! You feel humiliated and deceived now, but at that time, you’d actually be slapped in the face!”

”You think I’m afraid of you?!” Wang Tianlai roared again!

”Aren’t you?”

Lu Xiaobu’s lips curled up, his eyes cold, as he took a step forward!

”Why should I be afraid of you?!”

Wang Tianlai shouted with his neck outstretched.

”You’re really not afraid of me?!”

Lu Xiaobu took another step forward!

”Not afraid!” Wang Tianlai shouted.

”Really not afraid?!”

Lu Xiaobu stepped forward once more, his voice suddenly cold and ruthless!

And now, the distance between the two had shortened to less than fifty centimeters!

Wang Tianlai looked at the suddenly close and ruthless-eyed Lu Xiaobu, his heart skipped a beat, and he took a step back!

This reaction was actually quite normal!

It’s like facing a sharp pencil; even though you know it won’t touch you, when it suddenly approaches your eye, something deep in your genes makes you instinctively avoid it!

Ordinarily, this is nothing!

But at this moment, at this time!

This one step back made all the difference!

”See, you’re afraid of me!”

Lu Xiaobu, who was slightly shorter than Wang Tianlai, now looked down at him!

This series of expressions and actions made Wang Tianlai’s heart race!

It’s like watching a horror movie!

What’s the scariest thing in a horror movie?! Is it the ghost face?

No, it’s the creepy music, the constructed environment that draws you into a suspenseful rhythm!

When a ghost face suddenly appears, it sends chills down your spine!

It’s the same principle with horror movies!

Thus, in Wang Tianlai’s heart, the words surfaced—maybe this is truly better!

Otherwise, this unrestrained Lu Xiaobu would indeed cause havoc in the Wang Family.

Seeing Wang Tianlai’s faltering gaze, Lu Xiaobu turned and left.

Enough is enough, going further would only backfire!

Today he just wanted to leave a warning in Wang Tianlai’s heart, or perhaps plant a seed.

So that whenever he thought about Wang Ling and Lu Wenhuo, he would inevitably think of Lu Xiaobu and calm down, consider things from a different perspective.

As for completely defeating Wang Tianlai?!

That’s wishful thinking!

Do you think a few simple words, one scene, could convince a father to hand over his daughter to you?!

Dream on?!

However, today’s actions were both beneficial and detrimental.

Perhaps Wang Tianlai might not treat Lu Wenhuo as strictly, but at the same time, he’d also intensely scrutinize Lu Xiaobu!

The difficulty of that scrutiny, tsk-tsk-tsk!

But that will be Lu Wenhuo’s matter!

Whether he could win over his future father-in-law would depend on his own abilities!

Lu Xiaobu sat back at the table.

Lin Feng shrugged at Lu Xiaobu: ”Continue?”

”Continue!” Lu Xiaobu nodded.

They both knew that it was best to ignore Wang Tianlai now, the more attention, the more problems, and soon he would leave on his own!

Sure enough, just after they finished speaking, Wang Tianlai glared fiercely at Lu Xiaobu before turning and leaving!

”Xue Lin, deal the cards.” Lin Feng spoke.

”I don’t think it’s necessary.”

Lu Xiaobu suddenly said with a smile: ”I’m already winning!”

”Wh...” Lin Feng was stunned, not reacting for a moment, but when he looked at Xue Lin, he suddenly understood: ”Damn! You sneaky kid, you’ve hit two birds with one stone!”

Do you know what Lin Feng saw?!

A pair of eyes!

A pair of eyes filled with admiration!

A pair where beauty is in the eye of the beholder!

The owner of these eyes was Xue Lin!

Clearly, the scene where Lu Xiaobu overwhelmed Wang Tianlai just now had elevated Xue Lin’s initial feelings for Lu Xiaobu to the extent of abandoning reason!

Damn it! How can we play anymore?!

Of course, Lu Xiaobu was sure to win!

Damn it, Wang Tianlai, you old guy ruined my plans!

We’ll settle this score slowly!
