Chapter 1387 - 1387: Anyway, I Believe It

"Bang!"

With a muffled sound, the battle between Lu Lishuang and Shao Baxing, which lasted a quarter of an hour, finally reached its conclusion.

The outcome was obvious at a glance.

Shao Baxing lay on the ground motionless, blinking furiously as if screaming: I haven't lost, I can still fight!

Meanwhile, Lu Lishuang stood tall, with a hint of confusion in her eyes.

However, that didn't stop her from beating a drowning dog...

Seeing Lu Lishuang about to deliver the killing blow to Shao Baxing, Xiao Feng quickly stepped in to stop her: "Stop, you've already won this one."

"He hasn't admitted defeat," Lu Lishuang said sternly.

Xiao Feng turned his face, looked down at Shao Baxing, who was lying on the ground glaring at him, and said, "Old Master Shao, even though you tried to harm me, I can't just watch you die."

"Boss, your righteousness is matchless, truly a once-in-a-lifetime good boss!" Old Ha flattered from the side.

Although to outsiders, his words might seem exaggerated and sycophantic.

But Old Ha, well-versed in such matters, knew that Xiao Boss feared more about not being extreme enough than being over the top.

Sure enough, Xiao Feng soon revealed a satisfied smile.

While Shao Baxing widened his eyes, in a fit of rage, tried to lift his arm, which quickly went stiff, and his arm fell heavily.

The reason for his fury was that three minutes ago, he was aggressively dominating the fight, about to defeat Lu Lishuang in one fell swoop.

Then suddenly, his back felt like it was bitten by an ant.

Then...

A paralyzing sensation began to spread throughout his body, and Shao Baxing's feet felt rooted to the ground, and he couldn't move.

This sensation was deeply memorable for him!

A few days ago, he was subdued by Xiao Feng precisely because of this damn numbness!

As such, the outcome was inevitable...

One must know, in a duel between experts, victory or defeat often happens in an instant!

Although Lu Lishuang didn't understand Shao Baxing's situation, her keen combat instincts had already prompted her to make the right choice.

She immediately stepped forward swiftly, alternated her palms, continuously striking Shao Baxing at the chest, knocking him to the ground.

This resulted in the earlier scene of "Lu Lishuang's lack of martial virtue, forming a murderous intent against the old comrade; Xiao Feng's kind-heartedness, saving Shao Baxing from a crisis."

"Stop dawdling and carry Old Master Shao away, and by the way, shave his head," Xiao Feng called to Hui Yi and others.

Hui Yi and others agreed in unison and rushed over, while Aspergillus oryzae asked: "Do you want us to burn some monk scars on his head?"

"Aspergillus oryzae!" Old Ha immediately flared up in anger: "You damned rascal, digging a hole for me again?"

"How am I digging a hole for you?" Aspergillus oryzae looked innocent.

Old Ha said irritably, "If you burn scars on Old Master Shao's head, won't I also have to get burned?"

"Aren't you into fashion? It's just right to style your head this time."

"Pah! You old rascal can't say anything good!"

"What's this about good or bad? Want me to let one out for you to smell?"

Everyone around was already used to this, and no one intervened, allowing the two to attack and insult each other.

Before long, Old Ha looked at Xiao Feng with a bitter face: "Boss, I just used up too much energy, I can't move."

"Carry Old Ha away too," Xiao Feng instructed.

Aspergillus oryzae seized the opportunity and asked, "Boss, should we also give Old Ha a shaved head?"

Xiao Feng hesitated for a moment, then sighed: "A deal's a deal; who told him not to express his stance just now."

"Alright then, I'll personally handle it later!" Aspergillus oryzae eagerly exclaimed, and with the help of Hui Wu and others, carried Old Ha inside.

In the courtyard, everyone had left, leaving only Xiao Feng and Lu Lishuang behind.

A moment later, Lu Lishuang seemed to realize something, frowned, and said: "Something's wrong!"

"What's wrong?"

"How could that old fart just suddenly stop moving?"

"How should I know?" Xiao Feng shrugged, nonchalantly said: "You don't know Old Master Shao, he's quite unpredictable sometimes.

Take this fight and bet with you, for instance; it's very likely he just wanted a shaved head to cool off and deliberately lost to you."

"Do you believe that yourself?" Lu Lishuang sneered.

Xiao Feng earnestly replied: "Whether you believe it or not, I certainly do."

"Heh..." Lu Lishuang laughed insincerely.

...

At dawn, a glow appeared in the east.

Such a beautiful scene always gives people a dreamlike feeling, so beautiful it feels unreal.

But, there are very few with the leisure to appreciate such beauty.

Xiao Feng had just moved his deck chair to the middle of the courtyard when a black business car parked outside the gate.

The automatic door slowly opened, revealing the corpulent figure of Wang Lubo, with Chen Xiuxiu sitting beside him.

After they got out of the car, they took a lot of things from the trunk and carried them into the courtyard.

"Brother Feng, the things you wanted, I've brought them for you, also brought some New Year's gifts," Wang Lubo said with a smile: "Xiuxiu and I are heading back to Kyoto for the New Year today..."

At this point, he paused, and his smile faded.

Wang Lubo said reluctantly: "Honestly, thinking about parting from you, Brother Feng, not seeing each other for a long time, my heart truly..."

"Stop!" Xiao Feng promptly interrupted: "Don't say those things that make people's skin crawl; drop the stuff, and you can leave."

Wang Lubo wasn't angry either and pulled a burlap sack from the pile of gifts, saying: "I've contacted the factory, they can start mass production anytime, just call when you're ready.

But, it's best to decide within the next couple of days; otherwise, we'll have to wait until after the New Year."

Xiao Feng nodded, indicating he understood.

Chen Xiuxiu stepped forward and said: "Brother Feng, my grandfather and father asked me to give you their regards, and they asked me to tell you, if you ever get a chance to visit Kyoto, don't forget to drop by the Chen Family."

"Definitely!" Xiao Feng agreed with a smile.

After exchanging a few more words, Wang Lubo and Chen Xiuxiu left.

Xiao Feng approached the burlap sack, untied the rope, and pulled out several glass rods with thick heads and thin tails, like tadpoles, varying in length.

Just then, the little girl came out of the villa with a yawn, seeing the courtyard full of gifts, she was taken aback: "Brother Xiao Feng, who sent all these?"

"Bozai and Chen Xiuxiu."

"Did Fat Bo and Sister Xiuxiu come by?" The little girl immediately pouted unhappily: "I've given them so much good advice to help them get together.

Now that they are together, they don't even bother to see me or bring me something delicious, so heartless!

So heartless!"

Xiao Feng was amused by the little girl's look but knew in his heart, the little girl wasn't greedy for food or drink.

"Hmm?"

At this point, the little girl noticed what Xiao Feng was holding, and couldn't help but curiously ask: "Brother Xiao Feng, what are you holding."

She reached out to grab it.

Xiao Feng immediately drew his hand back, speaking solemnly: "This is not something to be carelessly taken."

"I just want to see, I won't break it, Brother Xiao Feng, why are you so stingy!" the little girl stomped and complained.

"It's not about being stingy, first tell me, do you know what this is?" Xiao Feng opened his palm, gesturing for the little girl to take a closer look.

The little girl looked closely, and her small hand unwittingly reached out to touch, but Xiao Feng caught her hand.

"Is this crystal?"

"Nope!"

"Amber?"

"Nope!"

"Then what is it?" the little girl asked, running out of patience: "It looks similar to glass, surely it can't be glass?"

Xiao Feng chuckled: "You got it right!"

"Is it really glass?" The little girl moved closer again, with a furrowed brow: "It doesn't look like a craft, it's pretty ugly.

Brother Xiao Feng, stop teasing me and tell me what you're holding."
