28 At This Rate, I am Done For! (2/2)

He decided to flatter Hong Xiaofu instead, ”I just thought that… Brother Fu over here looks like the ever so handsome Qiyu Xuanyang and Yu Yulin. His looks are definitely above average!”

Zhang Yang, who was seated beside Li He, almost blushed. It was extremely clear that Le He had suffered under Hong Xiaofu! Otherwise, what else would make him change his behavior so quickly? Hong Xiaofu had immediately become Brother Fu…

Zhang Yang was delighted. It seemed that he had not been the only unlucky person—it made him feel better.

Hearing Li He's compliment, Zhao Ming immediately agreed, ”Yes, that's right! My Brother Fu here has the best character. too!” He said, as he showed two thumbs up.

Zhao Ming really admired him. The fact that Hong Xiaofu had lent him his precious necklace without a second thought showed how great his character was. How many people on Earth would be willing to give others their precious belongings? Although he did not know what exactly had triggered his Awakening, there was no doubt that the necklace had played a role in it. In the end, Hong Xiaofu was more than willing to lend an object crucial to his Awakening to others. What else could be said about his great character?

”Yes, that's absolutely right!” Li He continued to desperately flatter Hong Xiaofu, ”Let's just say I am extremely blessed to have joined you guys today. Brother Yang, we have taken up quite a bit of their time, we should return to our own table. You see—”

Seeing Li He's distraught, Zhang Yang was delighted. He deliberately asked, ”Huh? Do you want to go back now? Why not chat a little longer? Don't worry about it, you should really get to know my classmates…”

Li He's facial expression turned sour. If they had continued chatting, God only knew what would have happened. Li He insisted, ”No, that is not good! We should not stay here any longer. Let's go back to our own table.” After he said that, he immediately stood up, ”Everyone, enjoy your meal. We will take our leave.”

He quickly made his exit with Zhang Yang. After the two had returned to their own table, Zhao Ming looked at Hong Xiaofu before asking carefully, ”That… Brother Fu, was something wrong?”

Everyone at that table had felt the same way—they could tell something was not right. Su Ying asked curiously, ”Yeah, what happened between you guys? Have you met him?”

”In the past… I have met him” Hong Xiaofu knew that he could no longer hide the news, he shrugged his shoulders and said, ”Yesterday night, didn't you ask me to help you log in to the game?”

Zhao Ming nodded his head. ”Yeah.”

Hong Xiaofu continued, ”When I logged on, I saw him live streaming on the streets, so I entered his broadcast.”

Su Ying asked, ”What happened then?”

Hong Xiaofu took a deep breath and replied, ”I had a casual chat with him, and I said that I had been Awakened too and that I could make others kneel… But he did not believe me and said that he would kneel in front of all the viewers if the Drake War Drum exploded.”

Without hearing the rest of the story, they all knew what had happened: the Drake War Drums must have exploded.

Hong Xiaofu continued, ”You guys must have guessed it. It really exploded, and he did not want to own up to his word.”

Su Ying's eyes widened in shock, ”What happened next?”

”In the end…” Hong Xiaofu spread out his hands and shrugged, ”As far as I know, he knelt twice…”

Everyone fell silent.

Hong Xiaofu's ability was truly unbelievable.
