"Rourou really seems to have fallen for my brother. She's gone straight to French kissing... even I'm a little surprised. But I've seen Rourou's body, and she's truly the best of the best. Better my brother gets lucky than some other man."
Chen Zhi was a little surprised too.
She knew Jiang Rou very well. The young lady of the Jincheng Jiang Family had never shown any interest in men before, but ever since Chen Zheng entered her sights, Jiang Rou had seemed like a different person. Last time, her brother had gone to the Jiang Family with Jiang Rou, and she had no idea what they had discussed. Probably no one had expected Jiang Rou and her brother to progress this quickly.
They were already French kissing. Tonight, were they going to...
Chen Zhi dared not follow that thought any further, but at this rate, the two of them would probably be rolling in the sheets very soon!
"Young girls these days really know how to hook a man. I... I admit defeat on that front."
An Jing sighed.
Honestly, she felt she still couldn't be as forward as Jiang Rou.
Su Cheng offered no opinion, but she was a little surprised too. Jiang Rou really was unusually bold. If Chen Zheng took the initiative to kiss her, she might not resist, but for her to take the initiative to kiss Chen Zheng... perhaps only under certain circumstances.
"Jiang Rou! Stop right now! Damn it! What do you take me for?"
The young master Bai Ye finally couldn't bear it anymore and roared at Jiang Rou!
"Thin air."
Jiang Rou parted from Chen Zheng and took a deep breath, calming the excitement inside her. That wonderful sensation was making her restless all over, making the blood in her body seem to boil. Even she was a little worried about what would happen if she kept kissing Chen Zheng!
As for Bai Ye, of course, she only tossed him that casual reply.
"She doesn't even want nine hundred and ninety roses. How nice it'd be if she gave them to me."
Among the onlookers, a bespectacled homebody girl couldn't help sighing. She thought Jiang Rou was a little foolish, choosing an ordinary-looking fellow over a rich young master.
If it were her, she would definitely choose this Young Master Bai!
Quite a few others thought the same, lamenting that Jiang Rou was still too young, still just a little girl who hadn't truly experienced society. Once she had, she would probably realize that so-called true love was all bullshit!
"There's nothing wrong with pursuing beautiful love when you're young, but society is far too realistic. Pretty girl, I hope you won't regret it later."
A middle-aged woman spoke up.
"Jiang Rou! Leave this man and come to my side! I can pretend what just happened never happened!"
Bai Ye took a deep breath, his expression turning somewhat gloomy as he stared at Jiang Rou.
"You must be an idiot."
Jiang Rou chuckled, glanced at Bai Ye, and hugged Chen Zheng even tighter.
"Hahaha!"
The people around them couldn't help laughing when they heard that.
"This Bai Ye really thinks he's the center of the world."
Chen Zhi chuckled.
"Shut up!"
At the entrance to the South Wind Coffee House, Bai Ye roared again, though not at Jiang Rou this time, but at the surrounding onlookers. His roar startled them, and they instantly fell silent.
Bai Ye's gaze snapped to Chen Zheng's face. After looking him over several times, he spoke in a low, threatening voice. "I don't care who you are. I'm giving you ten seconds to leave Jiang Rou right now! If you want money, I can give you money! But if you still haven't left Jiang Rou after ten seconds, don't blame me for getting rough! Kid, I'm someone you can never afford to offend!"
"Whoa!"
His words caused another uproar among the onlookers!
Wasn't this Young Master Bai far too arrogant? He was using both threats and bribes, and saying all this right out on the street. Wasn't he afraid someone would record it and post it online?
"Idiot!"
Jiang Rou spat out the word coldly.
"Want me to count down for you?"
Chen Zheng smiled faintly as he looked at Bai Ye.
"You!" Bai Ye froze, then flew into a rage. "Kid, you're asking to die!"
As he spoke, Bai Ye suddenly raised his hand. The roses in his hand seemed to turn into sharp arrows, their petals stripping away with a swish as they sliced through the air toward Chen Zheng's face with a sinister, desolate beauty!
"Holy fuck!"
"He knows martial arts!"
"He's a trained fighter!"
"You guys! You're not filming a TV show, are you?"
The onlookers cried out!
"Watch out!"
Jiang Rou frowned.
"The Bai family's Divine Finger Flick!"
Inside the café, by the window, Chen Zhi frowned at the sight too.
"Divine Finger Flick? This Bai Ye... is he that man's grandson?"
Su Cheng thought of someone then, and her brows furrowed slightly too.
"Bai Chongsheng?" An Jing also thought of someone, but then snorted. "Even Yu Canghai has to address Chen Zheng as Senior. Bai Chongsheng would have to grovel before Chen Zheng too, let alone his grandson. Who the hell does he think he is?"
"Not a bad move. I'll do a magic trick too."
At the café entrance, Chen Zheng smiled faintly at the roses shooting toward him like arrows. He raised his right hand and flicked a finger lightly toward the nine hundred and ninety-nine roses piled on the ground behind Bai Ye.
"Whoosh!"
Suddenly!
Something truly magical happened!
The roses shooting toward Chen Zheng froze in midair, while the nine hundred and ninety-nine roses on the ground suddenly burst apart all at once. Their petals seemed to be swept skyward by an immense force, scattering above the café entrance!
At that moment, it was like a shower of petals!
"So pretty!"
"Those special effects are fucking amazing!"
"Incredible! You really are filming a TV show. Your crew's prop master is amazing!"
"This is way too beautiful. A shower of petals!"
The onlookers all involuntarily raised their heads, gazing at the sky full of rose petals and crying out in wonder.
"Hmph! So you're a trained fighter too, kid, but I'm still someone you can never afford to offend! Uncle Lin, bring me my sword!"
Bai Ye froze for a moment, but sneered the next.
"Young master..."
The middle-aged man called Uncle Lin frowned, looking hesitant.
"Bring me my sword! I'm going to cripple-Aah!"
Bai Ye's face twisted savagely, but halfway through his words, he suddenly let out a miserable scream!
"Rip!"
"Rip!"
"Rip!"
A very eerie sight unfolded!
Some of the rose petals drifting slowly down from the sky landed on Bai Ye. Though they looked soft and feeble, with no offensive power whatsoever, at that moment those soft, feeble rose petals became weapons of extreme sharpness, easily slicing open Bai Ye's shirt!
In the blink of an eye, cuts appeared all over Bai Ye's body, as though slashed open by hidden weapons!
"What!"
"Holy fuck!"
"The rose petals turned into hidden weapons!"
"Everyone, get back! Don't let the rose petals hurt you!"
"Wait! The rose petals only seem to be hurting Young Master Bai!"
Horror spread across the onlookers' faces as they screamed and backed away, but someone soon noticed that the rose petals weren't hurting them at all. They seemed to attack only Young Master Bai!
"You!"
Bai Ye abruptly raised his head and stared at Chen Zheng, his eyes full of disbelief. Then, with a thud, he collapsed to the ground!
He was already covered in blood, a sight of indescribable eeriness and horror!
"Whoosh!"
Just then, the wind suddenly rose, sweeping up the rose petals on the ground. Some petals were stained with Bai Ye's blood, and now they rose with the wind and drifted over everyone's heads. Everyone felt as though those bloodstained rose petals had come alive, as though they had become the most terrifying hidden weapons in the world, capable of taking a life with ease!
The scene was eerie beyond measure!
