Chapter 52: Chapter 52: A Challenge [Please Favorite, Please Recommend]Lu Xiaobu had enough and struck the final blow, "Han Meng, try talking crap again. Remember I’m the prodigal, right? You think I won’t ban you for the things you’ve just said? Making it so you can’t earn a penny even if you bend over backward? You don’t even have any memorable works, yet you dare talk crap."

    With that said... Sёar?h the n?velFire.net website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality.

    Han Meng’s Weibo instantly went silent.

    He was scared!

    When Lu Xiaobu uttered those words, he was genuinely scared!

    Lu Xiaobu was right; he was just a pretty face with no substance, and now, with such vulgar speech, getting him banned would be all too easy, too easy indeed!

    Thus...

    The winner emerged!

    The verbal battle had ended!

    Netizens actively commented, nearly bursting into laughter!

    Magnificent Era: "Oh God! I saw a God today!"

    Lu Chen: "Absolute god! Absolute idol! So mighty!"

    Universe’s First Slut: "Newly registered account, please look after me. I’m now a crazy fan of the prodigal, able to curse with such masterful prowess, I can only describe my current mood as worship!"

    Lazy: "After reading the prodigal Lu Xiaobu’s cursing, I realized how naive and childish I used to be. I thought I was unmatched in cursing, but today I’m shocked and in awe. I gladly admit defeat. I wonder if prodigal Lu Xiaobu would take me as a disciple, I want to learn your cursing. If I can learn even a tenth, no, one percent of your true teachings, I would fear no one in this world!"

    "Falling apart..."

    "God, what did I just witness!"

    "This Weibo is about to hit the front page!"

    "What happened here? Why are the click and comment counts so high?"

    ...

    In school.

    Classmates also saw Lu Xiaobu’s pivotal cursing, and some who couldn’t hold it laughed so hard they couldn’t straighten their backs!

    "I can’t believe it, it’s the first time I’ve realized Young Master Bu has this talent."

    "This cursing is too harsh. It cuts deep!"

    "Hahaha, but, I’ve already saved it. I’ll use this next time I curse someone."

    "Han Meng is really unlucky, messing with Young Master Bu. Now he’s been cursed."

    Li Qiang reprimanded, "What do you mean by Han Meng? Young Master Bu was just targeting that Wild Drink, Han Meng brought it upon himself."

    ...

    It seemed like things had calmed down, but in reality, the main show had just begun.

    "Lu! Xiaobu!" Liu Changlong’s angry Weibo post appeared, "Although I tricked you once, we agreed it was a willing bet. You’re stirring up trouble now!"

    Seeing Liu Changlong’s Weibo, Han Meng’s fans thought about fighting back, but recalling Lu Xiaobu’s terrifying cursing skills, they ended up just silently liking the post.

    Lu Xiaobu: "Don’t you have any brains? Do you think I’m the type who has nothing better to do than curse people? I’d rather sleep. Although I did enjoy cursing this time."

    "Fine! I’ll cut the crap. You said you have a beverage launching too, right? Let’s not play dirty then. Let’s prove who’s superior with facts!" Liu Changlong threw down a challenge!

    "Alright! I didn’t even want to promote any beverage, but since you mentioned it, I shall accept reluctantly." Lu Xiaobu sneered. "Honestly, I’ve always felt there’s something wrong with your taste buds; you could probably find poo delicious! My cola will crush yours!"

    "Deal. Let’s see the sales in three days. Our Wild Drinks fear no challenge." Liu Changlong settled it!

    ...

    Lu Xiaobu turned off his phone and continued to lie on the table, ready to sleep.

    "Don’t you still want to sleep?" Zhou Jingyuan was going crazy on the side: "What’s the matter with you? Challenging someone after a few words, and then going to sleep right after? You aren’t just making things up like Liu Changlong said, using a non-existent thing to accept a challenge, right? That would be hugely embarrassing."

    "Relax, relax, I can easily thrash that kind of thing." Lu Xiaobu tossed the Wild Drink he had only taken one sip of into the trash can.

    "Just stop bluffing! Call your family right now." Zhou Jingyuan worriedly said: "I’ll go look for some new foreign drinks to help you save face so you won’t lose too horribly."

    "No need, no need," Lu Xiaobu said nonchalantly.

    Just then, his phone rang.

    "Um, Xiaobu, did you actually make a challenge bet with Liu Changlong?" Lu Hongbin’s voice came through.

    "Oh, right!" Lu Xiaobu nodded.

    "Let me talk." Zhou Jingyuan snatched the phone: "Hello, are you Lu Hongbin? I’m Zhou Jingyuan."

    "Oh... I know, I know." Lu Hongbin’s voice sounded a bit more courteous.

    "Although Lu Xiaobu has done something reckless, now that it’s already happening, let’s not scold him," Zhou Jingyuan bluntly said: "I’ve already made some contacts, there is another drink abroad, it’s not as good as Wild Drinks, but it still has a market share, I’m trying to secure the distribution rights."

    "Thanks, but no need," Lu Hongbin spoke in a calm tone.

    "What, are you all crazy in your family!" Zhou Jingyuan exploded: "First, Lu Xiaobu unreasonably issues a challenge, and now when I offer a solution, you refuse?"

    "Um... actually, we can win," Lu Hongbin spoke softly.

    "You can win?" Zhou Jingyuan looked baffled: "Have you all lost your minds? With what can you win?"

    Lu Xiaobu sighed, took out a Coke he prepared for himself from his bag, and shoved it into Zhou Jingyuan’s slightly open cherry lips.

    "Gulp, gulp!"

    Cough cough cough—

    Zhou Jingyuan choked and instantly burst into a fit of coughing: "Lu Xiaobu, are you trying to kill me?"

    However, the next second, she came around.

    "Huh?" Zhou Jingyuan’s eyebrows shot up, her face filled with surprise: "This, this is..."

    "My Life Essence, tastes good, right?" Lu Xiaobu chuckled.

    "Get lost!" Zhou Jingyuan cursed, snatching the Coke from Lu Xiaobu’s hand, and took two sips, her eyes shining brighter with each gulp.

    "Um, Miss Zhou, actually, this is what happened..." Meanwhile, Lu Hongbin was still quietly explaining.

    Explanations were necessary, who knew Xiaobu would get along so well with her; having her help would be a huge advantage.

    "No need to explain, you can win! Absolutely can win!" Zhou Jingyuan hung up the phone abruptly and hugged the Coke to one side, sipping it with a beaming smile: "Delicious, truly delicious."

    "Hey hey hey, I was just letting you taste it; that’s my drink." Lu Xiaobu looked—hey, he was worried about this situation, but now, alas, it really happened!

    "What’s yours or mine?" Zhou Jingyuan rolled her eyes: "I already gave you the Wild Drink, so you might as well take this bottle too."

    "Who would drink that trash drink, hand it over to me or I’ll get physical!" Lu Xiaobu stood up.

    "Come at me if you dare, afraid of you with those scrawny arms and legs?" Zhou Jingyuan scoffed.

    "Watch my Dragon Claw!"

    "Hey, you can’t rob... damn it, Lu Xiaobu, where the hell are you grabbing?"

    "I told you, this is the Milking Dragon Claw, so soft!"

    "Scram!"
