“Xiaobei, Listen to me! The Black Tiger Gang is not to be messed with! We’ll get hurt if we stay here and keep messing with them!” Wu Junfan said nervously.
“Furthermore, this is the east side of the city! Their headquarters is here! Their leader Dongfang Hong is also here! Basically, they are the kind of people who would murder for profit! Even the policemen are afraid of them!”
“Fine. Leave if you want, the Black Tiger Gang is just a small gang and I doubt they can do anything to me.” Chen Xiaobei grabbed a chair out of nowhere to sit in front of his shop.
“Um…” Wu Junfan was stunned. He rolled his eyes at his friend.
Ultimately, his advice was unheeded, although he too failed to understand Chen Xiaobei was not afraid of scary people like the Black Tiger Gang.
“I’m not leaving if you aren’t! If we are to die anyway, I’ll die beside you!” Wu Junfan seethed.
“What! You’re going to die for me because of love? I’m not gay!” Chen Xiaobei grinned and laughed evilly.
“Get off! Now’s not the time to fool around! I can tell that you can fight, but can you handle the two most powerful defenders of Black Tiger Gang? And Dongfang Hong?”
“Wow! So there are defenders and Dongfang Hong in Black Tiger Gang too! They definitely sound very powerful! Still, I really love fighting powerful people so let’s not jump to conclusions first. Heck, I just might defeat them easily!” Chen Xiaobei laughed.
Wu Junfan frowned. “They are the infamous defenders in Green Vine City, and Black Tiger Gang only got to where they are today because of their ruthless violence! You’ll die quickly if they come here!”
“Hehe…” Chen Xiaobei laughed condescendingly. Drawing out his cellphone, he logged on to his Weibo account and uploaded a few pictures of First Love Peach while included a caption beneath them:
First Love Peach! Available soon!!! Time: Within three days! Location: Ten fruit shops at *** road *** number… Price: Really expensive!
His dormant fan club promptly burst with activity after his status update.
[Wow! My Bro Bei is online again! And he brings good tidings! The First Love Peach that we have been really looking forward to is finally available!]
[Bro Bei! Can you be more specific about the day? Ah, I don’t care anymore! I’m going to stand in front of the fruit shop every day for twenty-four hours! The First Love Peach is not to be missed!]
[The price is really mysterious… But I shall use all the money I have from my Red Envelope to buy First Love Peach!]
[Since Bro Bei and Goddess Lan promoted this First Love Peach, I’m more than willing to spend all the money that I have to buy some!]
[Buy! Buy! Buy!]
……..
Chen Xiaobei had about three hundred and thirty-three thousand fans, and most of them were rather active!
The comments kept pouring in on his status update as if a waterfall, and soon the news spread throughout Green Vine City. It was much more efficient than TV advertisements!
It was also thanks to the booming increase of Chen Xiaobei’s charm during his trip to the tomb of Emperor Yan. Even now, the number of his fans are inching towards to three hundred and thirty-five thousand!
That would be just the beginning too, for there will be another wave of people joining the Chen Xiaobei fan club when First Love Peach makes its debut!
The fruit itself was really delicious, and there was no doubt that every single one of his fans would give it five stars on Weibo! It was practically impossible for Chen Xiaobei not to get famous!
Ten minutes later, his cell phone started to ring without a break. The callers were from the upper society who wanted to preorder the First Love Peaches! Some wanted a ton of the fruit, others want two! There were even those who wanted to buy an entire forest of First Love Peach!
However, all their requests were rejected by Chen Xiaobei, who sternly said: “You guys have to line up if you want the First Love Peach! Everyone is equal in front of the fruit!”
Every caller was speechless! No matter who it was, everyone only had one first love; that was the reason why those who wish for the sweet taste taste the sweetness of First Love Peach must work hard to get it. Indeed, there was nothing that those individuals from upper society could do except arrive early and line up in front of Chen Xiaobei’s shop on day of.
“Here they come! Xiaobei… A lot of those gangsters are coming at us… We’re doomed! My stupid mouth! We are going to die this time…” Wu Junfan cried out as Chen Xiaobei reveled in his plans.
“Huh?” Looking up, Chen Xiaobei and saw at least a hundred gangsters surrounding his shop. Their leader was a man with an eye patch, who looked like he was in his forties. He looked rather cross, just like one of those triad leaders in the movies! The blondie was also closely following behind him like a loyal dog.
“Who’s that guy?” Chen Xiaobei pocketed his cellphone and asked calmly.
“He’s the One-Eyed Dragon; Ma Sanbao! He’s the left hand of the Black Tiger Gang! His combat power is only slightly lower than Dongfang Hong, and his temper is infamous in Green Vine City! Kids cry at his name!” Wu Junfan said nervously.
“Quick question… You’re not a kid, are you?” said Chen Xiaobei.
“No. I’m not…” Wu Junfan replied; a drop of cold sweat fell from his chin.
“Then Why’d you look like you are going to cry soon?” Chen Xiaobei mocked.
“I… There are hundreds of people coming at us! It’s only normal that I freak out! Also, I haven’t married Lan Mengchen! I don’t want to die!”
“Man! Do you know that I want to slap you really hard right now? Open your eyes and look at me, and I’ll show you why Lan Mengchen chose me over you!” Chen Xiaobei scolded teasingly as he sat his friend down on the chair.
“Tut! She said that the both of you are just good friends! She hadn’t chosen you yet! You thick faced monster!” Wu Junfan retorted angrily.
“Then should I be the one sitting here instead and watch you fight those guys?” Chen Xiaobei smiled.
“I…” Wu Junfan gulped, and his temper vanished immediately.
“Just sit tight and witness!” Chen Xiaobei patted his shoulder and walked towards the gangsters.
“Sanbao Bro! That is the son of a bitch I told you about!”
The blondie pointed at Chen Xiaobei and taunted. “He’s the one that beat us up! He wanted to collect protection fees from Black Tiger Gang as well; he wants to humiliate our brotherhood! That bastard is getting way to cocky!”
“Motherf*cker! All of you! Go beat him up and drag him here! I’ll teach him how to be a better man!” Ma Sanbao swung his hand to signal the “troops”; clearly, he wasn’t keen on fighting Chen Xiaobei personally.
Five to six burly men charged towards Chen Xiaobei after their leader gave the order. He could tell from their physique and movements that they were stronger than the followers of the blonde guy.
Still, Ma Sanbao believed that six of his followers were enough to handle Chen Xiaobei!
“Son of a bitch! Die now!” They came at him with fists and kicks.
“You guys don’t know what death is!” Chen Xiaobei said calmly. “All these muscular men are not worthy!”
