Chapter 9 - Poor Vision
Opening Chapter 9 of "The Strongest Dandy in the City": In Bai Xuelingâs heart, even before Ye Chenfeng had developed panic disorder, she had always... Read on for more!
In Bai Xuelingâs heart, even before Ye Chenfeng had developed panic disorder, she had always thought of him as a prodigal and despicable young master who was good for nothing, let alone after contracting such a serious panic disorder.The thought of having such a man as her future husband often made Bai Xueling feel resentful, but as a woman from a prominent family, the marriage contract was not something she could decide on her own.
In fact, Ye Chenfeng always had his own set of principles in the way he did things.
Although he was dissolute, he would never bully others using his status.
He would even stand up against other heirs from Capital City when they bullied the weak.
This was why he was ostracized by the people in the Capital City circle.
Seeing Bai Xueling frown, Zhou Jueâan mistook it as a sign of her losing interest because of Ye Chenfeng and quickly tried to flatter her, âXueling, watch me play around with that fool.â
After Ye Chenfeng developed panic disorder, him being made a fool of often became a topic of conversation for the Capital Cityâs heirs over tea or meals.
Besides, the prominent families of Capital City all had their own set of rules where the younger generation needed to handle their own affairs.
As long as no lives were endangered, the elders could not intervene.
Friction between the heirs within the great families of Capital City was common, and if the elders stepped in for every issue, the whole of Capital City would be thrown into chaos.
It was precisely because of this that Zhou Jueâan dared to speak such words. TĘe source of this á´ontent ÉŞs É´ová´l(F)ÉŞre.É´et
Of course, more importantly, Ye Chenfeng was a patient with panic disorder, could Zhou Jueâan not handle even him?
Bai Xuelingâs soft and sensuous lips moved slightly, wanting to stop Zhou Jueâanâs ridiculous behavior, but she ultimately did not speak up.
After all, in her heart, Zhou Jueâan was not much better than Ye Chenfeng.
âXueling, letâs just watch the show from the side!
My cousin loves to make a fool of himself,â Zhou Ting said, laughing as she clung to Bai Xuelingâs arm.
âTingting, this isnât very nice!
Donât take it too far.â Ye Chenfeng was, after all, Bai Xuelingâs fiancĂŠ in name, and she didnât want to see Zhou Jueâan go too far.
âXueling, donât worry, my brother knows where to draw the line,â Zhou Ting reassured, pulling Bai Xueling along behind Zhou Jueâan.
Ye Chenfeng heard every word that Zhou Jueâan said to Bai Xueling crystal clear, and a mocking smile crossed his lips as he thought to himself, âThe world is just too full of idiots, people with no self-awareness trying to play the big shot?
In the end, they only end up as âPig Head Threeâ.â
Strutting with a chest puffed out and a self-righteous look, Zhou Jueâan approached Ye Chenfeng and asked disdainfully, âAre you Ye Chenfeng?
The famous fool of Capital City?â
Ye Chenfeng, looking unconcerned, turned and asked the saleswoman beside him, âMiss, does your store keep dogs?â
The saleswoman, puzzled, looked at Ye Chenfeng but replied, âSir, we donât keep dogs here!â
Seeing that Ye Chenfeng completely ignored him, Zhou Jueâan momentarily lost face, especially with Bai Xueling behind him!
How could he afford to lose face?
He said disdainfully, âA fool will always be a fool.
How would such a high-end medical equipment store keep dogs?â
Ye Chenfeng stared at Zhou Jueâan in front of him for a moment, then turned his head and questioned the saleswoman again, âMiss, thatâs strange!
Then why do I keep hearing a dog barking?
And it sounds so close; you must be keeping dogs in your store.â
âYe Moron, did your brain malfunction, and now your eyes are malfunctioning too?
Do you see a dog in front of you?â Zhou Jueâan mocked self-righteously.
The saleswoman standing next to Ye Chenfeng couldnât help but cover her mouth and snicker at Zhou Jueâanâs smugness, and even the cold expression on Bai Xuelingâs face couldnât hide her amusement.
It was only then that Zhou Jueâan realized something was off.
Ye Chenfeng had compared him to a dog, and here he was, proud as could be!
He truly was the biggest idiot in the world.
His cheeks burning with embarrassment, Zhou Jueâan had confidently told Bai Xueling that he would toy with Ye Chenfeng, but it turned out he was the one who got played by Ye Chenfeng.
A surge of rage welled up inside him.
No man could tolerate losing face in front of a woman, let alone in front of Capital Cityâs number one beauty, Bai Xueling.
Zhou Jueâanâs eyes behind his thick glasses flashed with a hint of gloom, and his hand clenched tightly into a fist, looking ready for a fight.
Confronted with such a dimwit, Ye Chenfeng lacked even the desire to lift a finger and thought with disdain, âYou bird-brain, didnât you just call me a piece of dog shit?
Today, Iâm going to make you realize that acting tough in front of me comes with a price.â
Ye Chenfengâs right hand quickly pulled out a silver needle from his acupuncture kit and struck two points on Zhou Jueâanâs body with lightning speed, leaving onlookers unable to even catch his movement, only seeing a blur; of course, Bai Xueling and Zhou Ting standing behind Zhou Jueâan didnât see Ye Chenfeng make his move at all.
The points Ye Chenfeng hit were Zhou Jueâanâs âlaughing acupointâ and the acupoint for diarrhea.
Plus, when Ye Chenfeng pierced the points with the silver needle, he infused a small amount of soul power to speed up the effects.
âBuâââ
Zhou Jueâan clutched his belly as an exceptionally loud sound came from behind him.
âHahahaâââ
Following that, Zhou Jueâan burst into uncontrollable laughter, unable to utter a word, tears almost streaming down his face.
âBu!
Bu!
Bu!âââ
With both hands gripping his painfully cramping stomach, filth flowed from the hems of his pants legs.
Seeing the filth, laughter still unstoppable from his throat, his entire face turned red from the strain.
The female sales associate next to Ye Chenfeng covered her nose, looking at Zhou Jueâan with great disgust.
In her heart, she filled with admiration for Ye Chenfeng; though she didnât clearly see how Ye Chenfeng took action, she was certain that Zhou Jueâanâs current sorry state must be the work of the handsome man beside her.
Meanwhile, Bai Xueling and Zhou Ting at Zhou Jueâanâs back were continuously furrowing their brows, puzzled by Zhou Jueâanâs sudden odd behavior.
Naturally, they didnât associate what was happening with Ye Chenfeng.
In their minds, Ye Chen was still the fool with severe panic disorder!
âXueling, my brother must be having a stomach upset,â Zhou Ting hastily explained, but seeing Zhou Jueâan laughing uproariously, she added, âNo, maybe my brother is possessed.â
Ye Chenfeng put the silver needle back in his acupuncture kit and walked past Zhou Jueâan to Bai Xueling.
Seeing Ye Chenfeng walking towards her, Bai Xuelingâs fair and delicate face grew even colder.
Ye Chenfeng curled his lip and said, âIf youâre going to pick a man, at least find someone decent.
Choosing an idiot who wets himself?
Thatâs a slap in my face, isnât it?
After all, Iâm your fiancĂŠ!â
After speaking, Ye Chenfeng didnât linger and walked towards the store exit.
After five or six steps, he turned his head and added, âYour taste is quite poor.â
Truthfully, although Bai Xueling was beautiful, Ye Chenfeng wasnât the least bit interested.
He didnât like to cozy up to someone unresponsive.
Had it not been for their engagement, he wouldnât have bothered to speak to her at all.
Bai Xuelingâs cold expression turned to one of shame and anger.
She had absolutely nothing to do with Zhou Jueâan, and Ye Chenfengâs misunderstanding made her feel humiliated and infuriated, almost making her want to drop her ladylike demeanor and chase after him to give him a couple of fierce kicks.
