All the external beauty was prepared.

Lei Huxi changed into a new outfit, transforming into an especially spirited and handsome young man. Annie, needless to say, wore a light purple top, paired with white pants and her eternal high heels, always the center of attention wherever she went.

But what about inner beauty?

That was a bit of a problem.

All of Lei Huxi and Annie's inner beauty was in the foam box held by Brother Huxi.

A crab that Annie would never believe was a fighting crab, even if she were beaten to death.

Jiang Bin lived in a standalone villa, very quiet.

When Lei Huxi and Annie arrived, there were already a row of luxury cars parked at the entrance.

As soon as they got out of the car, there were even security guards.

When they walked into the villa, a large crowd had already gathered. Most were in their early twenties, a mix of men and women, lively and bustling.

Annie clearly knew everyone, and as soon as she entered, a chorus of greetings greeted her.

It seemed everyone knew that the always proud and haughty Annie finally had a boyfriend, and Jiang Bin had deliberately exaggerated, saying that Annie had somehow found a poor boy from the countryside.

But when they saw Lei Huxi by Annie's side, they realized Jiang Bin's words were not entirely reliable. Lei Huxi's appearance and demeanor did not resemble a poor boy from the countryside at all.

As the host of the day, Jiang Bin, seeing Annie and Lei Huxi inseparable, his eyes filled with intense jealousy. Especially the Xu Yan Yan by his side, who was wearing an expensive floral dress, was originally radiant, but when Annie appeared, her simple outfit quickly made the meticulously dressed Xu Yan Yan look like a butterfly showing off.

A person's inner character can never be faked.

Despite his jealousy and anger, he was the host, and he couldn't lose his composure in front of so many people.

He put on a smile, "Welcome, welcome, Lei Huxi, you really came."

"Of course, how could I not come to Jiang Shao's invitation?" Lei Huxi said politely.

Jiang Bin laughed a few "hahas," his gaze falling on the foam box in Lei Huxi's hand, his eyes immediately showing disdain.

What was Lei Huxi doing? Using this to fight a crab? Was he joking?

Since he wanted to make a fool of himself, let him.

A total of 10 people participated in this crab fight, the rest were just there for the show. Each participant paid a 5000 RMB entry fee, and whoever won the final victory would get the 50,000 RMB prize.

As Lei Huxi's "partner," the 5000 RMB entry fee was paid by Annie.

Jiang Bin was determined to win this crab fight. He didn't care about the 50,000 RMB, but his fighting crab "Bawang" was already famous for its invincibility, and it was his greatest source of pride. He couldn't let the "Crab King" title slip away this time.

"Lei Huxi, according to the rules, since it's your first time participating, you will be the first to go," Jiang Bin explained the rules.

Being the first to go meant that his fighting crab would have to endure more battles, making it more likely to tire out. But the rules were already set, and Annie couldn't change them.

"Mo Fatzi, you were the last one last time, so you'll be the first to accept Lei Huxi's challenge. Have you trained any good crabs this time?"

The guy Jiang Bin called "Mo Fatzi" weighed about 200 pounds, and his whole body jiggled as he walked.

Annie told Lei Huxi that Mo Fatzi's family owned several car 4S stores, and he was a decent person who didn't get angry when people joked about his size. He fought crabs purely for fun and didn't take the wins and losses seriously, so he was almost always the last one.

Sure enough, Mo Fatzi had a smiling face. He had someone bring up a glass water tank about a meter long, covered with a blue cloth.

When the blue cloth was lifted, there was a bit of shallow water inside, with some small fish and shrimp scattered around. A blue crab weighing about 3 pounds was crawling around.

As soon as the blue crab was seen, the crowd burst into laughter, "Mo Fatzi, you brought a blue crab to fight? You'll be the last one again this time."

This was a blue crab, also known as a swimming crab, which has high nutritional and economic value and can be used as a fighting crab, but its fighting ability is not great.

"Couldn't find any other crabs, really couldn't find any other crabs," Mo Fatzi didn't care about the ridicule, instead, he jiggled his fat cheeks and smiled, "Training one like this is already pretty good. Look, it's over three pounds. If it loses, I'll immediately steam it."

"Fatzi, what's the name of this crab?"

"Fat Meat, I'm called Fatzi, so it's called Fat Meat."

Another round of laughter erupted, even Lei Huxi found the fat man interesting and humorous.

Jiang Bin laughed, "Mo Fatzi's fighting crab is called Fat Meat, Lei Huxi, it's your turn."

The laughter quickly subsided, and everyone gathered around.

After all, he was Annie's boyfriend, and everyone knew the strength of Juncheng Group, so he must have something special.

Lei Huxi, unhurried, opened his foam box and took out his fighting crab.

When the crowd saw the fighting crab clearly, they were first stunned, then burst into laughter again.

Just a moment ago, they were laughing at Mo Fatzi, now they were laughing at Lei Huxi, but this time it was a wild laugh.

A fighting crab? Lei Huxi actually brought such a fighting crab?

A crab that grows in lakes and ponds, its only use is to end up on the dinner table:

A crab!

A large crab, about six or seven ounces, but no matter how big, it was still just a crab. Besides its delicious meat, what other use could it have?

Annie's face was as red as anything.

It's over, it's over, Lei Huxi had really lost all face this time.

"Annie, your boyfriend is so funny."

"Annie, you're killing us, is your boyfriend a comedian? He's so convincing."

"Oh, oh, my stomach hurts from laughing, stop it."

Everyone thought this was a joke played by Annie's boyfriend. It was too funny, this joke would keep them entertained for at least half a year.

After the laughter finally subsided, Lei Huxi pointed to the crab and said, "This is my fighting crab, its name is Zhao Zilong."

The previously joyful scene suddenly became so quiet that a pin dropping could be heard.

A fighting crab? Annie's boyfriend wasn't joking? This edible crab was actually a fighting crab?

Annie's boyfriend must be crazy.

"Lei Huxi, you might not have understood the difference between an edible crab and a fighting crab, right?" The feeling of victory surged in Jiang Bin's heart, but he still tried to put on another face, "Did you see Mo Fatzi's fighting crab? Although they are all edible crabs, swimming crabs can also be trained, but yours is just..."

The meaning was clear.

Lei Huxi, however, said very seriously, "Jiang Shao, is there a rule that specifies what type of crab must be used for fighting?"

Jiang Bin was taken aback, then shook his head.

"Then can my crab participate?"

"Yes." Jiang Bin came to his senses, since Lei Huxi was so eager to embarrass himself, why should he worry? "The rules don't specify what type of crab must be used, so Lei Huxi's... Zhao Zilong can participate."

The most absurd and ridiculous scene in the history of crab fighting in Yundong City unfolded.

Someone actually wanted to use a crab to fight a fighting crab.

"Brother, are you really going to do this?" As an opponent, Mo Fatzi cautiously reminded him.

Lei Huxi's fondness for the fat man increased, "No problem, it's just for fun."

Seeing Lei Huxi's stubbornness, Mo Fatzi could only sigh.

A large table specifically for crab fighting was cleared.

Mo Fatzi placed his fighting crab "Fat Meat" on the table.

There was not a sound around.

Lei Huxi was definitely going to lose, there was no doubt about it. Even the lowest quality fighting crab would easily defeat an ordinary crab.

The question was, everyone knew Miss Annie's temper. If she lost, would Lei Huxi or Mo Fatzi suffer?

Poor Mo Fatzi, his fat body might be rendered into lard...

The crab fighting table was high on both sides and concave in the middle, covered with sand to prevent the crabs from slipping and to help them adapt to the environment.

As soon as Fat Meat entered the sand, it immediately became aggressive, walking clumsily and waving its large claws as if showing off.

Although it wasn't a good fighting crab, its intimidating appearance was not lacking.

When Lei Huxi placed his fighting crab on the table, a sigh immediately spread through the crowd.

What kind of fighting crab was this? Compared to Fat Meat, it was not even in the same league. Fat Meat was a large crab, weighing over three pounds, while Lei Huxi's crab, weighing only about six ounces, was a mere speck in comparison.

Moreover, the most important thing was that as soon as Zhao Zilong entered the sand, it was listless and lethargic, clearly not adapted to the environment.

The battle was already decided before it even began.

Such a weak Zhao Zilong, despite its intimidating name, could not possibly be a match for Fat Meat.

At this moment, Fat Meat had already seen its opponent, and after being trained, it waved its large claws, threateningly moving them in the air, as if trying to scare the enemy away.

But Zhao Zilong seemed to ignore it, remaining lazily motionless.
