Chapter 8

"Since I was little, my parents taught me that a drop of water's kindness should be repaid with a gushing spring. This has nothing to do with money; it's about the sincerity. Don't say ten million, even if these three items were worth a billion or ten billion, I would be willing to give them to you. Because, you reached out to help me when I was in trouble!"

Chen Xiaobei grinned, revealing two rows of white teeth.

"Alright... thank you." Lan Mengchen gently pressed her lips together, her heart touched by Chen Xiaobei's sincerity, making it impossible for her to refuse!

Seeing that Lan Mengchen had accepted the gifts, Chen Xiaobei felt relieved and carefully put away the remaining three golden jade hairpins, which were worth millions!

"By the way, now that you have so much money, what do you plan to do with it?" Lan Mengchen asked curiously.

"I plan to buy a house in Qingteng and bring my parents from the countryside. They have worked hard for me all their lives, and now I want them to enjoy a comfortable life."

Chen Xiaobei smiled and said, "If you have time, please help me look for a good neighborhood. I want a place with a nice environment, and it's fine to spend more money as long as my parents are comfortable."

"Alright." Lan Mengchen nodded lightly, her beautiful face showing a moment of surprise.

What a simple and kind-hearted young man! After receiving six million, his first thought was of his parents! In today's society, such young people are very rare!

"Good boy! Your character is to my liking. Leave your phone number, and if you encounter any difficulties in the future, just come to me!" Qin Bo greatly appreciated Chen Xiaobei and said seriously.

"Sure, if you need anything from me in the future, just let me know!" Chen Xiaobei said cheerfully.

"Alright!" Qin Bo laughed heartily.

Seeing the old and young man in front of her, a hint of surprise flashed in Lan Mengchen's beautiful eyes.

Before joining the Lan family, Qin Bo was already a well-known 'Stone Buddha' Qin Yuanshan in the martial world. Although he had retired, his reputation and influence had not diminished.

In the upper echelons of Qingteng City, everyone gave Qin Bo a wide berth, and even in Longdu, his name was well-known.

For a long time, many young people had tried to win Qin Bo's favor, but none had succeeded.

Chen Xiaobei was the only one to gain Qin Bo's recognition!

Unfortunately, this foolish young man didn't know what Qin Bo's promise truly meant.

Perhaps only when he personally stepped into the martial world would he truly understand the meaning of 'Stone Buddha'!

...

5:00 PM.

Chen Xiaobei and his three roommates took a taxi to the best restaurant in Qingteng City—Xianghu Club.

"Xianghu Club! I haven't been here for a long time!" Zhang Fengyi stood at the entrance, sighing.

"Really? As a second-tier rich second generation in Qingteng City, you can't come here often?" Li Ming was surprised.

"Of course not. A meal here costs tens of thousands, and only the top few families can afford to come here regularly!" Zhang Fengyi said seriously.

"Ha, we're really taking advantage of Boss Chen's generosity!"

Zhou Zitao grinned and then turned to urge, "Boss Chen, hurry up! You've been playing with your phone all the way, haven't you had enough yet?"

"Go in and order the food, I'll be there in a minute... I just need to grab one more red envelope..." Chen Xiaobei kept his head down, frantically tapping his phone.

When they left the school, someone had sent a big red envelope in the Three Realms Red Envelope Group, causing a flurry of red envelopes.

Unfortunately, with tens of thousands of members in the group, Chen Xiaobei hadn't managed to grab anything despite his efforts.

Seeing the frequency of the red envelopes slowing down, he decided to stand still and use all his strength to grab one more!

"Where did this little beggar come from? Haven't you heard that a good dog doesn't block the way! Move aside!" At this moment, a young man with a haughty and domineering attitude walked over.

This guy was rude, but Chen Xiaobei, busy grabbing red envelopes, didn't have time to pay attention and just moved a couple of steps to the side.

The arrogant young man was still unsatisfied and muttered, "What a piece of trash! Dressed like a beggar, you dare to stand at the entrance of Xianghu Club? Get out of my sight immediately!"

"Wen Feng! No nonsense!"

At this moment, an elderly man with a dignified presence walked over, followed by a group of well-dressed middle-aged men and women.

"Grandfather... I was just afraid this beggar would bump into you..." The arrogant young man immediately wilted and said in a low voice.

"I've told you many times not to judge people by their appearance!" Old Wen said sternly.

"Yes, Grandfather, I understand..." Wen Feng nodded quickly, not daring to breathe loudly.

"Sir, I apologize for my grandson's rudeness." Old Wen walked over and expressed his apologies to Chen Xiaobei.

Ding—

Congratulations, you've grabbed Shennong's red envelope, obtaining three bottles of Xiao Bai Cao Liquid, which have been stored in the Treasure Chest.

"Ah! I got it!"

Chen Xiaobei was overjoyed, startling Old Wen.

"Not only a beggar, but also a lunatic..." Wen Feng muttered under his breath, but was silenced by a glare from Old Wen.

Chen Xiaobei composed himself and ignored Wen Feng, but he felt a liking for Old Wen. Just as he was about to make some polite remarks, he suddenly noticed a black aura swirling above Old Wen's head, a sign of great misfortune!

"Sir, I have something to say that might offend you, but I must speak."

Chen Xiaobei calculated with his fingers and said seriously, "You will face a disaster today. You need to go to the thirteenth mile north of the city to avoid it, or your life will be in danger!"

"Shut up! Today is my grandfather's birthday, and you dare to curse him! You're asking for death!"

Wen Feng shouted angrily.

The surrounding middle-aged men and women also showed anger, glaring at Chen Xiaobei.

"I've said what I needed to say. Whether you believe me or not is up to you. You can insult me, but don't involve my mother! If you do it again, I won't be so polite!" Chen Xiaobei said and turned to leave.

He wasn't a bad person, but he wasn't a pushover either.

Only a fool would try to force kindness on someone who didn't want it.

"Damn! You little beggar, you're asking for it? I'll—"

Wen Feng rolled up his sleeves, ready to attack, but Old Wen stopped him, letting Chen Xiaobei leave.

Others might think Chen Xiaobei was exaggerating, but Old Wen was already three parts convinced.

Because, thirteen miles north of the city, there was a villa he used for rest and recuperation, unknown to outsiders, and Chen Xiaobei had accurately mentioned it!

This was quite mysterious!

"Grandfather, let's go in. The ramblings of a lunatic are not worth taking seriously." Wen Feng said.

"Alright..."

Old Wen, who didn't believe in ghosts and spirits, was three parts convinced but still seven parts skeptical.

What disaster could there be on such a fine day?
