Chapter 44: Wearing JK to See You

The slap was too loud.

Everyone in the restaurant was stunned.

Iron King was shocked, his mind completely blank, utterly dumbfounded.

After delivering that slap, Lu Chengwen was also terrified. He hid his trembling hand behind his back.

Lu Chengwen widened his eyes: "Tell me, why did you come to the North?"

Iron King thought, it's over, it's completely over, I'm really damned!

This is clearly the young master!

How could I, of all people, have the audacity to flirt with the young master's woman!

I'm such an idiot! This girl is stunningly beautiful, clever, and charming. Of course, the young master wouldn't let such a beauty go!

How could I... on my very first day in the North, offend the young master and flirt with his woman? What should I do? Will the young master have me stewed?

Lu Chengwen thought, just admit defeat already! I'm scared to death here!

Iron King didn't respond, so Lu Chengwen couldn't let the scene go cold.

Lu Chengwen gritted his teeth and slapped him again: "Speak! Why did you come to the North?"

Iron King quickly knelt on one knee: "To assist the young master in unifying..."

Lu Chengwen slapped him again: "You really dare to say it?"

Iron King was almost in tears: "Young master, please calm down, your subordinate..."

Lu Chengwen grabbed his neck, gritting his teeth, and hissed fiercely: "Call me Mr. Lu! You idiot!"

"Yes, Mr. Lu, your subordinate... I was wrong..."

As Iron King knelt, the four behind him also knelt.

In unison, they said: "Please, Mr. Lu, show mercy!"

Lu Chengwen angrily said: "You all, pack your things and go back to where you came from! You're going to ruin my plans!"

Iron King quickly pleaded: "Mr. Lu, we know we were wrong! Please give us another chance!"

The four behind him echoed: "Please, Mr. Lu, be merciful and give us another chance!"

Lu Chengwen pretended to suppress his anger: "Damn it, from now on in Snow City, be civilized, polite, humble, and listen to others. Otherwise, I'll feed your bones to the dogs! Understood?"

"Yes! Your subordinates... we understand!"

Lu Chengwen pretended he was about to slap him again but felt his hand hurt too much and was afraid of overacting.

He said fiercely: "Be smarter from now on!"

Xu Xuejiao thought Lu Chengwen was going to hit someone again and came up to hug his arm: "Brother Chengwen, don't hit them anymore. I just wanted them to apologize. Such a small matter isn't worth making them kneel!"

Lu Chengwen thought, finally, you're saying something sensible.

If you had calmed things down earlier, I wouldn't have had to risk my life today.

Lu Chengwen pointed at Xu Xuejiao: "Apologize."

Iron King and his four subordinates quickly apologized, making Xu Xuejiao feel embarrassed.

"Alright, alright, forget it. Just remember to maintain order in public places and have some manners when queuing!"

"Yes, yes, we understand."

"And be polite to girls. A real man should have some grace!"

"Yes, yes, we were wrong."

"And you, big guy, Iron... whatever King, don't bully girls in the future, or you'll face retribution."

Lu Chengwen said: "How about I make them kowtow a hundred times to you?"

"No, no."

Xu Xuejiao now wanted to calm things down.

Five big guys kneeling in a row was too embarrassing! She couldn't stand it.

Pushing Lu Chengwen: "Alright, Brother Chengwen, calm down, calm down. Let's go, ignore them. Come on, come on. I'll wear a JK uniform for you when we get back."

"Promise?"

"Yes, yes, let's go, let's go!"

Zhao Gang started the car, shaking his head in admiration while driving: "Mr. Lu, I really admire you! You're too wild! I just tested two of those guys, their martial arts skills are almost on par with mine... Such formidable characters actually knelt before you, repenting and apologizing. Besides being a prodigy, I can't think of any other words to describe your greatness and majesty! Mr. Lu, I really suspect you're a god, just strolling around in the human world for fun..."

While Zhao Gang was still boasting, Lu Chengwen in the back was shaking uncontrollably.

Xu Xuejiao looked at Lu Chengwen: "Brother Chengwen, what's wrong? Why are you sweating so much and shaking?"

Lu Chengwen thought, I almost died back there, you know? Iron King! One of the four great kings of the North in the big organization, known for his fierce style and ruthless methods.

I was just acting, pretending to be the young master.

If that guy had any brains, I would have been done for.

Xu Xuejiao saw Lu Chengwen wasn't looking well and quickly took his wrist to check his pulse.

Lu Chengwen wearily pulled his hand back: "I'm fine."

Xu Xuejiao said: "Hug?"

Lu Chengwen leaned over, and Xu Xuejiao hugged him.

Holding Lu Chengwen, Xu Xuejiao suddenly felt shy, her cheeks blushing. She smiled and patted Lu Chengwen: "Baby Lu, be good, don't be scared, Sister Xuejiao is here..."

Lu Chengwen sighed.

This seems to have gone too far. If Iron King finds out I tricked him and slapped him a few times, he's definitely going to come after me.

...

Iron King, after being slapped a few times, stood at the restaurant entrance, watching the luxury car drive away, frowning deeply. He then slapped himself hard.

"Damn it, on my first day here, I offended the young master. I'm really blind!"

"Iron King, is that person really the young master?"

"How could it be fake? Look at his dashing, unrestrained, and casual demeanor; his thunderous, unstoppable anger; his way of showing off and his unyielding attitude. Besides the young master, who else in the world could have such an aura?"

"Didn't we just help the young master show off?"

"Hmm." Iron King nodded: "These slaps have established a close relationship between me and the young master. I think this is a good start, don't you?"

...

Lu Chengwen was stressed.

Xu Xuejiao, this jinx, was pushing me to my death. Without her, I wouldn't have gotten into such big trouble today.

But without her, I might not have known Iron King had arrived in the North.

Well, take it one step at a time.

Lu Chengwen didn't know that Leng Qingqiu was determined to follow him in the shantytown renovation project, but Long Aotian kept recommending the amusement city project to Leng Tianhao.

However, Lu Chengwen made a decisive move to help Leng Qingqiu by directly transferring ten billion into her personal account. Leng Qingqiu stubbornly refused to take it out, keeping it as her personal funds.

The group's available cash of several billion, plus a loan of over a billion, totaling 4.9 billion, was quickly signed with Li Meiqin, and the funds were directly transferred to the Dasheng Group's account.

This made Leng Tianhao furious, but he had no choice.

Long Aotian felt he was facing difficulties.

For some reason, his earlier life was about killing gods and buddhas, but now in Snow City, he even stumbles while walking.

According to his plan, everything should have gone smoothly, everything should have fallen into place, everything should have gone as he wished!

The ideal was plump, but reality was as thin as a bolt of lightning.

Just dealing with the Leng family, he couldn't manage it!

Long Aotian had no choice but to send a distress signal to his organization—the "Big" organization.

Why is it called the "Big" organization? Probably because the author loves watching "Naruto."

Anyway, the North branch of the Big organization sent one of the four great kings, Iron King, with five billion in cash to assist.

Everything revolved around that piece of land.

Without securing that land, nothing else mattered.

Securing that land and making money would prove his business acumen and operational strength to Leng Tianhao and Leng Qingqiu.

Then he could naturally take over the Qianfeng Group.

Money wasn't a problem for Long Aotian. Once he secured the four major families, their money would be his, and he could take as much as he wanted with a word.

Those girls would line up, begging him to use their money. And if he didn't use someone's money, they would feel anxious, afraid of losing his favor.

Thinking of this, Long Aotian smiled.

He was full of ambition, fantasizing about his bright future.

Now, everything was ready, all he needed was the startup funds Iron King was bringing.

...

In Lu Chengwen's private villa.

As per his request, he bought a new villa with ready-made decorations, just slightly modified.

It has to be said, having money is great; the construction team worked at an astonishing speed.

The decoration style was what he liked—artistic, nouveau riche style, both luxurious and low-key minimalist.

Lying in bed, Lu Chengwen looked weakly at the ceiling.

His path seemed to be coming to an end.

What should I do after offending Iron King? Forget Iron King, any of his assassins could easily kill me, as easily as twisting open a bottle.

Today, Zhao Gang was clearly scared, right?

This guy, thinking he's a tough fighter, probably never suffered such a hidden loss in his life.

If this guy could instantly change his expression and want to sneak away, it shows how terrifying those four assassins were.

Lu Chengwen suddenly sat up: "What if I just leave this city? Who can stop me?"

As soon as he thought of this, he jumped up. Just as he jumped down, the door opened, and a girl walked in.

Xu Xuejiao walked in wearing a JK uniform.

Lu Chengwen was stunned: "What are you doing?"

Xu Xuejiao smiled: "Wearing a uniform for you. Aren't you a big pervert who likes to see girls in uniforms?"

As she spoke, she twirled around, showing off her figure.

It has to be said, Xu Xuejiao looked really good in a uniform.

Or rather, not just good, but downright... tempting.
