Generally speaking, when a woman acts coquettishly to a man, the man often has no resistance.
But what kind of man is Ren Feng? He's the king of mercenaries, hasn't he seen all kinds of women?
For Ren Feng, Liou Rumei's voice is still within his range of resistance.
Would he be the type of man to lose his dignity and agree to a meal just because a girl calls?
Would he be the type of man to become spellbound because a girl is too beautiful?
The answer, of course, is—yes.
So, Ren Feng agreed to Liou Rumei's invitation.
Meanwhile, Liou Rumei was sitting in the Yongheji Breakfast Hall, which had a pretty good breakfast, drawing many people here for breakfast.
At the moment, Liou Rumei was seated by the window, but across from her sat a man, to be precise, a middle-aged man with a large belly, with a face extremely sleazy, looking a lot like a nouveau riche.
Yes, he was indeed a nouveau riche.
"Meimei, this place doesn't seem to have any elegance at all; how can it reflect your temperament? Next time, I'll take you to a more elegant restaurant!" The man patting his chest, mixing in a slightly southeastern-accented Mandarin.
"Alright." Liou Rumei smiled though her mouth was busy chewing food.
"Meimei, after breakfast let's go shopping, that necklace around your neck is too ugly, I'll swap it out for a pure gold one, at least 24K, so you can guarantee a 100% head-turn rate when walking out." The man laughed sleazily, his eyes narrowed into slits.
"Sure." Liou Rumei continued her breakfast unchanged.
Just then, Ren Feng walked in, glancing around, immediately spotting Liou Rumei.
In an instant, Ren Feng felt a bit annoyed, darn it, knew this girl wasn't that well-intentioned, I'm a prop again?
Should he go over there or not?
Ren Feng hesitated a little, just then Liou Rumei glanced over beautifully, her face lighting up: "Ren Feng, come over here."
Well, busted.
Ren Feng had no choice but to go over and sit beside Liou Rumei.
At that moment, the man's face stiffened, his eyes filled with wariness and suspicion.
"Meimei, who's this guy dressed in such a tacky manner?" the man asked.
Tacky?
Ren Feng looked down at his attire, a simple white shirt, then looked at the man's attire, uh, a thick gold chain on the neck, collar full of grease stains, nose hair peeking out.
Come on, clearly you are the tacky one.
Ren Feng rolled his eyes, Liou Rumei beside him hooked her arm around Ren Feng's, smiling radiantly: "Mr. Huang, let me introduce you, he's my bro..."
"Little brother!" Ren Feng suddenly wore a smile, loudly interrupting Liou Rumei's words.
"Mr. Huang, she's my sister, and I'm her brother." Ren Feng said, wearing a smile.
Liou Rumei was momentarily stunned, but her smile did not change; she quietly leaned closer, "What are you doing?"
Ren Feng smiled at the somewhat dumbfounded Mr. Huang while saying softly: "You said on the phone that all I needed to do was come for breakfast."
"Just a sudden situation, consider I owe you one," Liou Rumei flashed a small smile.
Mr. Huang across the table was stunned, his face full of doubt: "Are you really her brother?"
"Absolutely, Mr. Huang." Ren Feng chuckled.
"Hold on, not right, I feel something's off, earlier Meimei called you Ren Feng, but Meimei's last name is Liou, if you two are siblings how come the surnames are different?" Mr. Huang's face was skeptical.
"Oh, Mr. Huang, we are actually long-separated siblings," Ren Feng acted sorrowful, "Me and my sis have been apart since childhood, only came together last year, that's why the surnames differ."
After speaking, he suddenly turned to Liou Rumei: "Sis, I've been looking for you so long, I don't want to be apart anymore, sis!"
Towards the end, Ren Feng was almost tearful and then lunged toward Liou Rumei for a hug.
Liou Rumei's facial expression froze momentarily, meanwhile Ren Feng had already pounced over her.
In a second, she resumed smiling: "Good little brother, come, don't cry now."
"Little brother, don't take advantage of me, help me deal with him." Liou Rumei gently pushed Ren Feng away, her breath fragrant.
"Alright, sis, I promise you, we'll never part again." Ren Feng let go of Liou Rumei, feeling smug inside, let's see if you still use me as a shield.
Mr. Huang shot a look of understanding, his face adding a flattering look: "Young brother, really sorry earlier, didn't expect you are Meimei's brother."
"No worries, Mr. Huang, are you trying to court my sister?" Ren Feng acted all innocent and shy.
"Yes, I fell for Meimei at first sight." Mr. Huang immediately looked towards Liou Rumei.
"That's great." Ren Feng suddenly clapped, startling Mr. Huang.
"How so?" Mr. Huang was curious looking at Ren Feng.
"Mr. Huang, you don't know, although my sis is pretty, no one dares to court her." Ren Feng's face showed delight.
"No one dares to court Meimei?" Mr. Huang looked shocked.
"Indeed, Mr. Huang, you have very little idea," Ren Feng said seriously, "my sis comes from a big family; to court her, one must pass these three trials from the family."
"That's simple, I've got money!" Mr. Huang patted his chest.
"Oh, Mr. Huang, it's not about money, you don't get it, these three trials are something no one can pass, many have failed before."
"Oh young brother, what are these three trials?" Mr. Huang was a bit befuddled.
"The first trial is called Blade Hill Oil Sea, walking a thousand meters on blades, then fishing out a Copper Coin from boiling oil to pass."
Mr. Huang was shocked, a hint of hesitation on his face: "This, shouldn't be too hard perhaps?"
Ren Feng nodded: "This trial isn't considered too hard, after all, it won't be fatal, though one in fifty can end up permanently disabled."
