Prodigal System in the Flourishing City

Chapter 923: Chapter 921: Paying Tribute

Time came to the morning.

Lu Xiaobu opened his eyes and looked at the little chili pepper curled up in his arms like a kitten, chuckling softly.

This little girl, always insists on doing things the hard way, clearly her first time, yet she stubbornly kept going until she was completely exhausted.

Since that’s the case, I’ll make you completely admit defeat!

So, he glanced at the little chili pepper clinging to him like an octopus with a wicked grin and kissed her.

”Mmm!”

The little chili pepper immediately woke up, showing a hint of fear at the close-up sight of Lu Xiaobu. She seemed to have truly overestimated herself and completely underestimated Lu Xiaobu!

Lu Xiaobu chuckled, he wouldn’t let her off, and he directly picked up her petite frame!

...

After a long time, the little chili pepper fell asleep again, Lu Xiaobu smiled, dressed, and planted another kiss: ”Wait for my return!”

Normally, he absolutely wouldn’t get out of bed today, but today was different—this matter couldn’t be postponed!

He stepped out the door, and by now, Black Rose had already left.

Liang Lan and the other two women were waiting at the door.

”Luo Xue, Qianmin, you take care of Jingyuan, I’ll accompany Young Master out,” Liang Lan instructed.

Originally, they were supposed to disappear today, but there was an important matter that needed addressing first!

”Okay.”

Wu Qianmin and Su Luoxue nodded quietly.

”Thank you for your hard work.” Lu Xiaobu glanced at the three women, showing an apologetic smile, and then lavished each of them with a kiss.

...

Leaving Night of Drunken Love, Lu Xiaobu posted on Weibo: ”I will go to the Massacre Memorial today for homage, if anyone wants to join me, let’s gather there!”

At this moment, the buzz online about Lu Xiaobu’s burning of Jingguo Shrine hadn’t died down.

Now with Lu Xiaobu’s announcement, it sparked an immediate frenzy!

”Responding in droves” doesn’t even begin to describe it!

Rather, it was ”millions responding in droves!”

”Oh my! Young Master Bu, you should have said something earlier! I just returned from Magic City yesterday, now I’ve got to rush to Nanjing!”

”Yeah! If you had said so earlier! If you had said so earlier, I’d have gone last night!”

”Quit talking, hurry up and set out or book tickets! If you’re late, you won’t get the tickets!”

”Yes, yes, yes, hurry up and buy tickets!”

”Is anyone going?! Let’s go together!”

”Of course, we’re going! As for partnering up, you don’t even have to worry, you’ll likely find companions on any mode of transportation!”

”No, I was saying I have a car, and I can pick you up if you’re nearby!”

”Oh, I see! Come on, come on!”

”Young Master Bu is going to the Massacre Memorial for homage?! Then we must go! Definitely going!”

”Young Master Bu, can you wait for me?! My old man wants to go too, I can’t drive too fast... Well, he just handed me his cane, said he’s fine, so I should hurry!”

”Hahaha! Your old man is really nice! Say hello for me!”

”So, I have a bit of cash, rented a bus, nearby brothers, if you want to go, you can contact me! Don’t worry, it’s free! But you need to hurry, I’m afraid I won’t make it!”

”...”

In an instant, there was a surge of excitement!

All over the country, vehicles headed towards Nanjing could be seen.

These vehicles sometimes met on the road and exchanged codes or something.

”Young Master Bu.”

”For eternity, unifying Jianghu!”

”Hahaha! Brother, you’re heading to the memorial too?!”

”Of course! Even my elderly father in the family insisted on coming! He’s been anxious all the way!”

”Hey, take it easy!”

At this point, the old man spoke: ”Easy my foot! Faster! The old man isn’t dead yet! If you let me miss it, I’ll close my eyes when we return!”

”Don’t, don’t, dad, I’ll speed up, speed up! Don’t worry! Don’t worry!”

”...”

Over here in Heavenly Dynasty, it was blazing hot.

However, over in Japan, upon receiving this news, they went ballistic!

”Still claim it wasn’t Lu Xiaobu who set the fire?! This is blatant provocation!”

”Excessive! Too excessive!”

”This is practically an indirect admission, it was him, and Heavenly Dynasty over there is even sheltering him!”

”Really too excessive!”

”Lu Xiaobu! Do you have to be so ruthless!”

”Excessive! Excessive! Excessive!”

”Eight chests of teeth!”

”Boycott Lu Xiaobu, boycott Lu Group’s products, get him out of Japan!”

”That’s right, boycott their products! Make him unable to make money!”

”...”

These were mainstream voices in Japan, basically unchanged from yesterday.

However, the only difference was that gradually another voice emerged among the Japanese masses.

That was the voice of justice.

”Honestly! I think what Lu Xiaobu is doing today isn’t problematic!”

”I feel the same way; our country indeed did wrong things back then, and continuously pays homage to Jingguo Shrine. Even I feel that’s excessive! He burned it out of hatred, though it makes me feel angry and ashamed, from a rational standpoint, he didn’t do anything wrong!”

”Yeah! Look at today, why is Lu Xiaobu going to the Massacre Memorial? This shows he’s not intentionally causing damage, but hoping to erase this pillar of shame! Although the method is wrong, there doesn’t seem to be another way!”

”What you’re saying is exactly what I was thinking, but I was afraid to speak out and be criticized! Now that you’ve said it, I’ll stand up too! My anger towards Lu Xiaobu is only limited to his excessive actions and disrespectful gestures, not due to historical events, please clarify this, leftist factions!”

”Turns out, so many people think the same way I do!”

”...”

In yesterday’s environment, mainly on the issue of Lu Xiaobu’s excessive behavior, they didn’t voice their dissent.

But today, when Lu Xiaobu commemorated the 300,000 dead, the issue elevated to a historical height!

So, their sense of righteousness didn’t allow them to stay silent anymore!

Separate issues, they didn’t want to side with those who ignore and distort history, who take shame as pride, the leftist factions!

It’s something I’ve always said, every country has good people, every country has bad people!

Japan has righteous individuals, Heavenly Dynasty also has pro-Japan elements!

Wasn’t there once a Japanese person who devoted their life to addressing the comfort women issue for our Heavenly Dynasty, and appeared on stage that moved Heavenly Dynasty?!

Of course, these righteous individuals also suffered terribly for their statements, and some even faced personal attacks!

Lu Xiaobu also notified Ghost Fox on his end to protect these people!

Nevertheless, Lu Xiaobu’s narrative certainly ignited the Japanese leftist factions completely!

Today’s commemoration wouldn’t be peaceful!

But so what?!

This is exactly what Lu Xiaobu wanted!
