Chapter 364: White Vengeance
[There's more to this fruit than its delicious taste! The sensation of chewing it is magical, and its mere taste brought me back to the innocent sensuality of my first girlfriend's lips! So much nostalgia whelmed in me that tears welled in my eyes!]
[I feel the same too! My thanks to Bro Bei, your First Love Peach helped me regain the youthfulness that I have lost long time ago! It made me remember that I should love again!]
[Life is like a song! First Love Peach is like wine! Let's toast to our Bro Bei! To Bro Bei! To life! To our first love!]
These were comments by educated teenagers.
......
[Such a delicious peach at only 998! It's a great bargain!]
[It's our fortune that Bro Bei thought of limiting each customer to one peach each! Many of us would have missed out on this legendary fruit otherwise!]
[May I know when the next batch of First Love Peach will be available? I was in queue by five in the morning today. I'm scared that I'll have to line up on the night before to buy a single First Love Peach next time!]
[I don't care! It's totally worth it!]
These were comments by normal teenagers.
.....
[Damn it! Sold out at all ten shops! Any nice guys out there who haven't finished their First Love Peaches? I would love to take just one small bite!]
[Bro Bei! I'm a student of Lanxiang University and QQ Messenger VIP Member; please let me be your friend! And then please give me one more peach!]
[Xiaobei, my love! I want more First Love Peaches! Give me one, and you can do whatever you want to me!]
[Shut up, bitch! Bro Bei, come to me instead! My legs are spread wide open! You can be the one on top!]
These were the comments from teenagers who were slightly... retarded?
Chen Xiaobei was glad as he read through all the comments. He knew that the positive reviews given by individuals of all walks of life were the reason why the First Love Peaches were trending. Was there another reason that peaches would be the most popular topic in town otherwise?
"Power to the people!" He smiled. "The impossible shall become possible when people work together!"
After that, he took a peek at the second most discussed topic. "So, the Legend of Ling Yue the Heroine is heading to cinemas real soon! This is exciting!"
The production of the film involved popular director, actors, and actresses, and was the most anticipated movie of the year! Almost every fan of movies had been playing close attention to it since pre-production. Today they had announced their air date as part of their promotion.
Naturally it was unfortunate for them that Chen Xiaobei's First Love Peach was launched on the same day, therefore pushing to the second most discussed topic. It was unbelievable that a hugely anticipate movie did not gain as much attention as peaches; the movie production team would probably be livid!
After that, Chen Xiaobei went to check his bank account. Three hundred million was deposited into his account; meaning that every First Love Peach had been sold! Even then, he ensured that almost all his fans had a taste of the legendary fruit by making the ruling of one peach per customer.
"At first, I was worth five to six billion. After giving the four billion worth of jade sculptures to Elder Cao, I was left with one billion and six hundred million; now, I'm worth one billion and nine hundred million with the earnings from those peaches."
"My bank account keeps on shrinking!" Chen Xiaobei thought. "When am I going to surpass the Lan Family? I must find a way to multiply the nine hundred million cash that I have right now! But what is the quickest way to multiply my net worth?"
*Ring*
Chen Xiaobei's cellphone rang suddenly.
"Hello? Fire Boss? What's up?" He asked calmly.
"Qiu Hairui from the Black Gang just invited you to attend the annual dinner at a luxurious cruise!" Fire Boss said.
"What annual dinner?" Chen Xiaobei was startled; this was the first time he heard of such a thing.
"Our Green Vine City is near the east sea - so all the big shots are invited to come on the cruise to enjoy themselves," Fire Boss explained. "I heard that this time the cruise will sail over the international waters; of course, there will be gambling circuits too."
"Did Third Elder say anything about it?" Chen asked.
"Third Elder and Murong Xiaoyao received an invitation as well; but Third Elder mentioned that it could be a white vengeance!" Fire Boss replied.
"White vengeance!? Do you know the exact date and time of this annual dinner?" Chen Xiaobei asked gravely.
"It's at night, day after tomorrow! We're going to board the ship at the east harbor!" Fire Boss paused for a few moments. "Bro Bei, how many people should we bring with us?" He then asked.
"We're not going to bring anyone, just ourselves! Also, tell Third Elder to bring as little men as possible!" Chen Xiaobei replied evenly.
"Bro Bei, are you kidding?" Fire Boss actually gulped. "You know blood will be spilled! We are sending ourselves to hell if we don't bring more people!"
"There's no telling whose blood will be spilt." Chen Xiaobei said, as if he had everything under his control. Though his tone was calm, there was an immense pressure in it that commands obedience.
*Gulp*
"Your wish is my command. I'll let Third Elder know as soon as possible!"
"Great! That's it for now."
Chen Xiaobei hung up, noting that he has approximately fifty hours before he attends the dinner.
He continued training. This was not a sign of him being nervous; he simply did not want to waste any valuable time even if it was on a luxurious cruise. Not even a battleship can scare him!
.......
Baole Club.
The place was still closed after Chen Xiaobei had wrecked everything inside. However, there were many luxurious cars parked outside the building that night that people walking past wondered why so many big shots were visiting a demolished club.
Only those who were within the Black Gang knew; this was their very first meeting.
"The Black Gang had been established for quite some time, but we finally gather together tonight! I - Qiu Hairui, am honored to lead this faction!" A man declared loudly from the front porch.
Almost two hundred people were present; most of them were former followers of Murong Tian.
Some of them was recruited by Qiu Hairui.
Some of them wanted to get rich through the Black Gang.
Some of them did not do well at their original affiliations like Gu Chaozuo!
In short, every member of Black Gang were traitors!
