Chapter 741 - 741: Delivering Tickets

It's snowing.

This means the big communal meal won't be happening.

Zhao Guo'an directly sent a message in the group chat, notifying everyone to handle breakfast themselves today, and also recommended a few tasty meal options.

Xiao Feng originally wanted to reply with "you'll deduct all my salary," but then realized he hadn't paid the guy any salary at all, thus, had no way to stop this strike.

Unexpectedly, Xiao Feng thought the little girl would be thrilled all day about going to the concert.

But in reality, the little girl did whatever she always did, no different from usual.

Du Qingyue and Jiang Yixin's preparations had reached the market research stage, nearing completion, with only the grand opening left.

Standing by the window, watching the snowflakes drifting in the air, Xiao Feng couldn't help but drift off.

He wasn't pondering life, but this scene could easily lead one into a state of mental blankness.

However, just then, a commercial vehicle stopped in front of the door, and a very fat man got out, unable to completely cover himself with an umbrella.

Reaching the front door, the man rang the doorbell.

"Ding dong! Ding dong! Ding dong!"...

Xiao Feng opened the door and looked at the man outside the gate: "Who are you?"

The man seemed a bit incredulous: "Brother Feng, did you... lose your memory?"

"Hm?" Xiao Feng walked down the steps to the gate, scrutinizing the man from top to bottom: "Your voice sounds familiar, and you look familiar too. Just tell me your name."

"I'm Wang Lubo." Wang Lubo said, dumbfounded: "Someone as perfectly charming as me, others can't even imitate!"

"..." Xiao Feng.

It's confirmed, someone who talks this obnoxiously can only be Wang Lubo.

Opening the door, Xiao Feng circled around Wang Lubo like observing a rare animal: "Bozai, have you had plastic surgery?"

Wang Lubo boasted: "This is the result of losing weight. Before I came over, I did a video call with my mom, and she said I've lost weight to the point I'm unrecognizable."

Xiao Feng took a deep breath, restraining the urge to punch this guy.

Indeed, Wang Lubo has lost some weight compared to before, noticeably even, otherwise, he would have recognized him at first glance.

But compared to a regular person, he's still quite a distance away from being "unrecognizable due to weight loss."

"Brother Feng hasn't eaten yet, right?" Wang Lubo called back to someone, who brought down a big plastic bag of stuffed buns and soy milk and then walked into the living room.

Upon seeing Wang Lubo behind Xiao Feng, Du Qingyue asked: "And who might this be?"

Wang Lubo shook his head in disappointment: "Sister-in-law, it's me."

"You..." Du Qingyue took half a minute before realizing: "Are you... Wang Lubo?"

Wang Lubo nodded earnestly: "Recently, I've discovered that losing weight is truly magical. You never know until you try; once you start, prepare to be shocked."

"Sit down first and then talk." Du Qingyue took the stuffed buns and soy milk. If it weren't for the voice and speaking tone resembling the Wang Lubo she'd known, she'd even suspect if this was an impostor.

Or maybe, Wang Lubo had a brother or something.

Sitting on the sofa, Wang Lubo took out five concert tickets from his pocket and said: "I came over today just to deliver these tickets. We'll meet at the sports arena entrance tonight."

Xiao Feng took a look and saw VIP written on them with fluorescent pen signatures, and then casually handed them to Du Qingyue.

A moment later, the phone in Wang Lubo's pocket rang.

After checking his phone, he frowned and looked at Du Qingyue: "Sister-in-law, what do you mean by this? By doing this, how am I supposed to stay brothers with Brother Feng in the future?"

"..." Du Qingyue.

Honestly, she now couldn't resist the urge to punch someone.

Can you make your words more ambiguous?

Xiao Feng tilted his head and looked, realizing that Du Qingyue had transferred one hundred thousand yuan to Wang Lubo, clearly the money for the concert tickets.

"There's no way I can take this money!" Wang Lubo said in an assertive tone, then returned the money.

"Sigh..." Xiao Feng patted Wang Lubo's shoulder, speaking earnestly: "Bozai, remember what I told you?"

Wang Lubo was stunned: "Um... Brother Feng, what exactly are you referring to?"

"Be careful how you talk in the future, so you won't get yourself killed someday." Xiao Feng sincerely advised.

Just then, the little girl came rushing down the stairs, her voice arriving before she did: "Old Zhao went on strike, should we order takeout or cook ourselves?"

After coming down, Du Qingyue waved the concert ticket in her hand.

The little girl exclaimed in surprise: "Did you buy it, Sister Qingyue?"

"He gave it." Du Qingyue pointed to Wang Lubo on the sofa, intentionally not mentioning his name.

The little girl followed Du Qingyue's direction with her eyes, frowned and said: "Fat Bo, how did you get plastic surgery to look like this?"

Wang Lubo was dumbfounded: "You actually recognized me?"

"To be exact, I recognized the necklace around your neck." The little girl twirled a lock of hair around her finger, saying: "Didn't Sister Xiu Xiu give it to you?"

Wang Lubo looked down and was momentarily stunned, couldn't remember wearing it, how did it get onto his neck?

To avoid getting a lecture, Wang Lubo immediately stood up to say goodbye: "I have a client meeting. See you at the sports arena tonight. No need to see me off, really don't."

With that, he quickly walked towards the door.

Xiao Feng, Du Qingyue, and the little girl looked at each other, as if their eyes were asking: Who said we were going to see him off?

A moment later, Du Qingyue looked at Xiao Feng: "Let's see him off anyway."

Xiao Feng nodded, thinking that just knowing how to follow the brotherhood code was worth seeing him off for.

As soon as they saw Wang Lubo off, they saw Xue Nuofu climbing out of the window across the street.

Xiao Feng grumbled: "What kind of habits do you all have, not using doors and having to jump out of windows? Are those extra steps really that tiring?"

Xue Nuofu paid no heed to Xiao Feng's criticism, and said: "Shen Tianze has already confessed, Song Keren was indeed wronged; all those signatures and such are forged evidence.

If he stands up to testify, Song Keren's suspicion can be cleared, but there's fear he might flip at the last moment, which would be framing Song Keren."

Xiao Feng shook his head: "Have you ever heard of conviction without a confession?"

"I've heard of it, but what do you mean?"

"I mean that what Shen Tianze says isn't important; what's important is finding the evidence. The one claiming must provide the proof; it's a universal principle.

Just like without the written signature, only relying on mouth talk wouldn't have got Song Keren suspended."
