Since the people had apologized, Huang Xiaolong did not pursue the matter any further.

It was getting late, and everyone was famished.

Leng Kai, Song Jian, and the others grouped together and held a private discussion.

“D*mn it, this farm boy sure has a sharp tongue…” Leng Kai’s face was full of indignation. Since he had suffered defeat at Huang Xiaolong’s hands, based on his vengeful nature, he would definitely find a way to get back at him.

“Leng Kai, what’s your plan?” Song Jian asked.

“Anyway, he’s in for it today! Be patient, we’ll play with him slowly. Whenever the chance presents itself, we’ll strike and humiliate him!” Leng Kai’s eyes had an evil glint.

“Huang Xiaolong, aren’t you buying us lunch?” Song Jian walked toward Huang Xiaolong. “But this pot of dragon phoenix soup of yours is really inedible. Don’t you think you should get us a few roasted lambs instead?”

Song Jian guessed that Huang Xiaolong must have little money on him, so he insisted on getting roasted lambs and forced Huang Xiaolong into a corner.

“Oh, you guys like eating roasted lamb that much?” Huang Xiaolong said reproachfully. “The pot of dragon phoenix soup is really tasty. If you’re not eating it, must we pour it away then? What a waste.”

“Xiaolong, don’t eat that thing…” Song Yuru pulled Huang Xiaolong away to the side and said in a low voice, “That snake came out of Qinghan’s tummy, don’t eat that.”

Song Yuru was a little bit of a clean freak after all.

She was fond of Huang Xiaolong, even subconsciously liked him a little, and naturally would not allow Huang Xiaolong to eat a snake that was raised in the belly of her BFF.

At this moment…

A few newcomers sniffed at the air and walked toward their direction.

“The aroma came from this place! Found it!” The leader was a chubby middle-aged man, who looked as if he discovered a new world. He pointed at the pot of dragon phoenix soup, his face full of ecstasy as if he was a drug addict who had gotten his fix, “Fragrant! Too fragrant! I’ve had meals all over the world, but I’ve never smelled anything so wonderful…”

Ravenous expressions were apparent on the faces of these people.

“Excuse me, but who made this wonderful pot of cuisine?” Chubby asked.

“Oh, I did, it’s dragon phoenix soup,” Huang Xiaolong replied.

“Ah! It’s actually the dragon phoenix soup! How rare! The dragon phoenix soup is a dish famous for its delicious flavors of Han cuisine from the Min Chinese subgroup. Added with special herbs, it’s a very nourishing tonic! Made with snake meat and chicken meat, it contains protein, fat, carbohydrates, calcium, phosphorous, iron, and vitamins, so this dish is suitable for people with skin allergies, a weak constitution, malnourished and lack of energy,” Chubby rubbed his hands and spoke enthusiastically.

Okay! So these people were a group of foodies!

“Little brother, you’re a great chef! This pot of dragon phoenix soup is freshly cooked, isn’t it? I see that you’ve not started eating yet.” Chubby looked at Huang Xiaolong with a fawning expression.

“That’s right, it’s freshly cooked,” Huang Xiaolong nodded.

“That… that is… little brother, why don’t we make a deal,” Chubby looked at Huang Xiaolong imploringly. “We’re all foodies here, true foodies… Could you possibly give us this pot of dragon phoenix soup, how about that?”

“Ah?” Huang Xiaolong was taken aback.

“Little brother, the aroma is too enticing!” Chubby gulped repeatedly. “Little brother, ten thousand bucks for this pot of soup, how about it? I’m begging you!”

Tsk, tsk, in front of delicious cuisine, there was no dignity left for a foodie…

Ten thousand bucks?

In reality, Huang Xiaolong only bought a few roosters, a bit of condiment, and picked some spices and herbs to cook this pot of soup. Even the snake came from Shu Qinghan, at no cost.

He merely spent a few hundred, but it was now selling for ten thousand. The profit made was more than tenfold of the actual cost.

“Is it worth it? Ten thousand for this pot of soup?” Leng Kai’s face was very skeptical.

“You won’t understand this. For foodies like us, money is nothing. The most important thing is to be able to eat good food. Speaking of which, ten thousand for this pot of dragon phoenix soup is actually our gain,” Chubby said earnestly.

“Okay, pay me ten thousand and this pot of dragon phoenix soup is yours,” Huang Xiaolong agreed readily.

Earning money was freaking easy.

Without any hesitation, Chubby took out a stack of brand new banknotes from his wallet and passed it to Huang Xiaolong, no more and no less, exactly ten thousand bucks.

Huang Xiaolong took the cash and waved to Leng Kai and the others, “Don’t you want whole roasted lambs? I will bring you to eat now.”

After that, Huang Xiaolong brought Song Yuru and Shu Qinghan along with him to a different place.

“D*mn it!” Leng Kai cursed darkly. “The little farmer boy took the limelight again! That pot of disgusting thing could actually fetch ten thousand bucks? I can only say that this world is full of idiots!”

“Let’s go. I won’t believe that the little farmer can be lucky all the time! Let’s wait and see! Once I get the opportunity, I’ll make him beg on his knees!” Song Jian had a vicious look in his eyes.

In no time at all, Huang Xiaolong bought a few roasted whole lambs, and the group of people sat on the grassy ground to dine.

Shu Qinghan and Song Yuru were the happiest among the group, giggling cheerfully while eating. From time to time, Song Yuru would tear off a piece of lamb and feed Huang Xiaolong. Unknowingly, the two seemed to be publicly displaying their affection.

Huang Xiaolong took out a pill from his canvas bag and gave it to Shu Qinghan. “Qinghan, this is a Peiyuan Pill that I made by gathering a hundred herbs from the mountain. There’s only one left and I’m giving it to you. This pill can help to strengthen the health and promote vitality, and can nourish the energy you’ve lost during this period.”

She had carried a snake in her belly for several months after all. Although she had gotten rid of the snake today, Shu Qinghan’s body was still weak because of it.

She accepted the pill with a smile and swallowed it on the spot.

Before long, Shu Qinghan felt her energy return and her blood also flowed warmly, bringing a pleasant sensation with it. Her pink baby face blushed prettily and exuded the scent of a youthful girl.

“Xiaolong, this pill is amazing! I feel so energized now!” Shu Qinghan gave Huang Xiaolong a strange look before she tore off a piece of meat from the lamb and fed Huang Xiaolong. “Heehee, Xiaolong, a reward for you.”

Looking at the two golden flowers of Coast City University, Song Yuru and Shu Qinghan, and their close interaction with Huang Xiaolong, Leng Kai, Song Jian and the others were infuriated.

They were the campus belles of Coast City University, the divas in the hearts of many male students, the main subject of their fantasies, but they were actually being openly affectionate with the dowdy and shabby little farmer.

When they met for the first time, Song Jian and the others looked down upon Huang Xiaolong, full of contempt and ridicule. But now? All the girls flocked to him, with one on each arm, and Song Jian and the other guys felt a fiery hot sensation on their faces, as though they were slapped brutally!

After the meal of roasted lambs, Leng Kai stood up and said, “Well, if everyone is free this afternoon, I’ll invite all of you to a karaoke session. There’s a new KTV in town, called the Dazzling Radiance, and they have the best hardware and software facilities. I’m a gold card member there, and I can bring all of you in. This can also be a celebration for Shu Qinghan.”

Leng Kai’s eyes rolled around a few times as he said to himself, ‘What’s so great about this little farmer? I’ll show you high spending, I’ll show you high-end standards, I’ll show you Leng Kai’s connections!”

Huang Xiaolong had taken the center stage today, so Leng Kai planned to strike back, and in the process, he would see if there was an opportunity to fix the problem that is Huang Xiaolong!

“Sure, I’ve never been to the Dazzling Radiance,” Chen Shuangshuang was the first to agree.

Song Jian and the others concurred in unison.

“Erk… KTV?” Huang Xiaolong was baffled. “I’ve never been to a KTV before. There’s no KTV at our village in H county…”

“Hahaha, Huang Xiaolong, since you’ve not been to one before, I’ll let you experience it today. However, you mustn’t do anything embarrassing. That’s a high-class place after all,” Leng Kai said teasingly. Finally, his sense of superiority was resurrected!

“Sure, let’s enjoy ourselves there,” Shu Qinghan laughed. The truth was, she was reluctant to go out with Leng Kai, Song Jian and the others, but at the same time, she also did not wish to be separated from Huang Xiaolong so soon, so she agreed to the suggestion. “Xiaolong, since you’ve never been to a KTV, you should go. Don’t worry, there’s nothing fantastic about that kind of place.”

“Oh, wifey, have you been to this Dazzling Radiance KTV before?” Huang Xiaolong looked at Song Yuru.

“Er… how would I have the money to spend at those places?” Song Yuru chuckled.

“Alright then, since both of us have not been there, we’ll join in the fun,” Huang Xiaolong said.

Leng Kai and Song Jian exchanged a glance and thought in their hearts, ‘Huang Xiaolong, you *sshole, this time, we’ll think of a way to make a fool out of you and make you humiliate yourself!”
