Chapter 122: The Dragon King Exploded, Lin Beifan Also Likes This Book?

Angkor was overjoyed!

His frustration from before had completely vanished!

Previously, the Dragon King Zhao Tian had rallied people against him, cursing him relentlessly. His phone battery had even drained several times from all the notifications!

That resentment had been simmering for too long, waiting for an outlet!

Now, he finally had his chance!

So what if he called Zhao Tian useless? A laughingstock? A man dominated by his wife? A disgrace to men? What could Zhao Tian do about it?

If you have the guts, curse me back!

Go on, insult me!

Oh, wait, if you do, you're admitting you're the Dragon King!

If you respond, you're acknowledging you're a disgrace!

Hahahaha!

On the other side, the Dragon King Zhao Tian was fuming.

This b*****d dared to openly insult Zhao Tian—the protagonist of that damned novel—right in front of him!

Wasn't that the same as pointing at a monk and calling him a bald donkey?

This was a direct slap to his face!

But no matter how furious he was, he couldn't retaliate.

Because the moment he did, wouldn't that be an indirect admission that he was the Dragon King Zhao Tian?

"Someone!" the Dragon King roared.

"Dragon King, what are your orders?" A man in black entered hurriedly.

"Have you found out who's behind this?" Zhao Tian demanded.

The man in black trembled. "Not yet, Dragon King!"

"Why is this taking so long? It's been two days, and there's still no progress! I don't care what it takes—no matter how much power or resources you use, you must find the culprit!" The Dragon King's voice was filled with rage. "I'm going to kill them!"

"Yes, Dragon King! I'll investigate immediately!" The man in black fled the room.

Zhao Tian grabbed his phone again.

Man in Black: Did you find out anything about Lin Beifan today?

Angkor: Him? Oh, he's just reading Dragon King of the City's Son-in-law.

Man in Black: …

Angkor: Actually, he recommended the book to me.

Man in Black: ...

Angkor: Not just me! He's been recommending it to everyone—the whole company, his friends… basically anyone who will listen.

Man in Black: ...

Angkor: He's a huge fan of this book!

Man in Black: ...

Angkor: He's so addicted that he barely even works anymore. He spends all his time chasing updates, day and night, completely obsessed!

Man in Black: ...

Angkor: The moment he sees the Dragon King washing feet, he gets this big, delighted grin on his face! Hehe!

Man in Black: ...

On the other end of the line, Dragon King Zhao Tian's face turned an unnatural shade of green.

His worst enemy, Lin Beifan…

Was actually a devoted fan of Dragon King of the City's Son-in-law?!

He wasn't even working anymore because he was too busy reading?!

He stayed up late just to catch the latest updates?!

And when he saw the Dragon King washing someone's feet, he smiled like an idiot?!

This was next-level humiliation!

Even if Zhao Tian defeated Lin Beifan in the future, he wouldn't be able to look him in the eye.

Because no matter what, Lin Beifan could just smirk and say:

"Oh? You're the Dragon King Zhao Tian who washes feet?"

Just imagining it made Zhao Tian want to crawl into a hole and never come out.

He wanted to die.

"AAAAAAHHHHHHH!" The Dragon King roared, smashing another cup into pieces.

After venting his frustration, he picked up his phone again.

Man in Black: Can you make him stop reading?

Angkor: I don't control what he reads. People have the freedom to enjoy books. Besides, he's my boss. Do you think it's appropriate for me to tell him what to do?

Man in Black: Then can you at least get him to read less?

Angkor: Forget it! He's completely addicted! If he doesn't read for even a second, he gets withdrawal symptoms!

Man in Black: ...

Angkor: By the way, why are you so desperate to stop us from reading this book?

Man in Black: I just think work is more important. No need to waste time on this garbage novel.

Angkor: Oh, then don't worry about it!

Angkor: Haha, I just caught up to the latest chapter! The Dragon King is washing his dog's feet now! And then he actually drank the foot-washing water! Hahahaha! What a pathetic excuse for a man!

Man in Black: ...

Angkor: How does someone like that even have the face to live in this world? What a joke!

Man in Black: ...

Angkor: If I ever met him, I'd slap him across the face and ask, "Why are you so damn pathetic?!"

Man in Black: ...

"AAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHH!" The Dragon King screamed again, smashing yet another cup.

Back in the office, Angkor chuckled as he stared at his phone. He could imagine the Dragon King seething with rage.

He loved this feeling!

Come on, Zhao Tian! Try hitting me through the phone!

Or through the internet!

Hahahaha!

"Brother Wu, what are you laughing at?"

Angkor looked up to see Lin Beifan smiling at him.

"Oh, nothing. I was just recommending Dragon King of the City's Son-in-law to a friend! But he doesn't seem to like it much, so I guess I'll just enjoy it myself." Angkor casually put away his phone.

Lin Beifan sighed. "How could anyone not like such a masterpiece?"

"Maybe it's just not his style," Angkor replied.

"That won't do. A book this amazing needs to be read! As a devoted fan, I can't stand by and do nothing!" Lin Beifan declared. "Brother Wu, record a video for me—I want to personally recommend this book to him!"

Angkor's expression turned complicated. "You want to… send him a video recommendation?"

"Of course!" Lin Beifan nodded seriously.

A minute later, the video was recorded.

Angkor watched the short one-minute clip and hesitated.

"Mr. Lin, do you really want to send this?"

"Of course! This book is too good to be ignored. As a true fan, I must do my part to spread its greatness!" Lin Beifan said firmly.

Angkor struggled internally.

But in the end, he sighed.

"Dragon King Zhao Tian, don't blame me. I didn't want to send this… but Lin Beifan insisted."

"All I can say is… may the heavens bless you."

With a single ding, the video was sent.

On the other end of the phone, Dragon King Zhao Tian saw the message from Angkor.

He initially hesitated to open it, fearing yet another insult.

But then he saw that the message contained a video.

And in the thumbnail…

Was Lin Beifan himself.

Curious, Zhao Tian clicked play.
