Dragon Raja: Lu Mingfei, Starting as a Seeker of the Law

Chapter 41 What kind of melodramatic plot is this?

But the boy opposite him did not react; instead, he closed his eyes and then spoke.

"Wait, someone's here."

Lu Mingfei raised his hand, interrupting Zhou Minhao's explanation, and gestured for the other party to turn his gaze to the lake.

As the gaze fell, the sound of propellers pushing through the lake water grew louder in the distance, and the once calm water suddenly churned as a motorboat cut through the waves and slowly approached the pleasure boat.

A well-dressed businessman from out of town, accompanied by a group of bodyguards and a secretary, boarded the deck, his leather shoes making a steady sound on the wooden planks.

The main character of the banquet finally arrived, and the long-awaited feast finally began.

Lu Mingfei watched as the out-of-town boss started shaking hands and chatting with the local boss, and felt that this was a good opportunity.

"Shall we make our move now?"

"No rush."

Zhou Minhao shook his head. He stood in the shadows at the stern of the ship, his gaze calmly sweeping across the entire scene. His gaze lingered on the bodyguards and secretary for a moment before settling on Zhao Xuzhen, and he spoke.

"Let's see why he came here."

Lu Mingfei didn't care.

He was just a henchman; making decisions was the supervisor's job. As a henchman, he only needed to do one thing—kill.

No, kill the hybrids.

That being said, even an assassin needs to fill his stomach first; he had only had a latte since the afternoon.

Lu Mingfei's figure disappeared silently from the spot, like a drop of water blending into the hustle and bustle of the banquet, quietly mingling next to a dining table.

Thanks to the fact that the out-of-town boss attracted most of the attention, no one even asked where he was from.

Judging from his designer clothes, people might think he's a rich young master from a wealthy family, out to broaden his horizons.

Lu Mingfei didn't care about all that. While the big bosses were busy toasting and talking, he just buried his head and showed off.

Of all things under heaven, eating is the most important.

The crabs here are big and have lots of roe. Lu Mingfei weighed the one in his hand; it must weigh at least half a pound. He had never eaten such high-end stuff before.

Amidst the clinking of glasses and the exchange of toasts, people gathered for a lively gathering.

Lu Mingfei had just extracted a plump piece of crab roe from the mother crab's body, steaming hot, when he heard the out-of-town boss speaking to the white-haired boss:

"Mr. Bai Shanglu, the purpose of my visit is to marry your wife."

"Miss Jiang Wanzhi will become my bride."

Upon hearing this, the entire scene fell silent, and even the fragrant steamed crab roe in Lu Mingfei's hand froze in mid-air.

He slowly raised his head, his lips twitching slightly.

—What the hell is this melodramatic plot?

Lu Mingfei was dumbfounded. He had thought that the man would say something earth-shattering.

The result... was indeed quite earth-shattering.

Traveling all that way just to steal someone else's wife? What kind of crazy move is that?

Lu Mingfei couldn't help but glance at the bodyguards behind the other party. Several bodyguards in black suits with well-defined muscles stood next to them, along with a female secretary with tanned skin.

The female secretary, judging from her face alone, was probably of mixed nationality, with both Eastern and Western aesthetics blended in her exquisitely sculpted face. It wouldn't be an exaggeration to call her a supermodel, but she just stood there obediently, like a delicate ornament.

Clearly, to that Boss Liu, she was nothing more than a pretty face...

He glanced again at the secretary's high heels, so thin and high, yet she stood very steadily, like a nail driven into the bow of the ship.

Looks like he's a bodyguard.

Lu Mingfei silently added the female secretary to the list of those to be dealt with, and at that moment, the argument on the other side almost came to an end.

In the UK, you can get married at 16.

The boss, Mr. Zhao, killed the game with a single photograph, and everyone fell silent.

Lu Mingfei was positioned right behind Boss Bai, and his eyesight allowed him to see the photo very clearly.

The photo shows a church with a gold-embroidered tapestry depicting the Virgin Mary holding Jesus. The girl is wearing a white wedding dress and holding a bouquet of oranges. Zhao Xuzhen is wearing a smart suit and is holding the girl's hand. The priest stands beside them, raising a cross to swear for this sacred ceremony.

The boy was handsome and dashing, and the girl was innocent and naive.

"Wow, she really is good-looking."

Lu Mingfei suddenly understood these big bosses. No wonder they couldn't forget her. With that kind of looks, she probably would need security guards when she went out shopping.

But looking at the photos, he couldn't help but feel uneasy.

This photo is like a mountain pressing down on Sun Wukong; Zhao Xuzhen is clearly aiming to deliver a decisive blow by releasing it now.

but.....

No matter what, Boss Bai and his wife are a legitimate married couple. As a husband, if someone is eyeing his wife so much, shouldn't he grab a weapon and beat him up?

Lu Mingfei originally thought that Boss Bai would explode, but... Boss Jin next to him exploded instead, slamming his hand loudly on the table, as if trying to take the initiative:

"Fuck you, Zhao Xuzhen! What kind of person is this? In China, we value a proper marriage. Did her father agree to your engagement? Was her mother even present? This is Kunshan, where we need proper matchmakers and witnesses. Since her parents aren't here, you're just abducting a minor!"

Someone nearby chimed in, "Yeah, these photos might be photoshopped. It doesn't prove anything."

"Jiang Wanzhi went to study in England. Marrying you? What kind of marriage is that?"

In the blink of an eye, Boss Jin, who was just teasing Boss Bai for marrying into his family, now seemed like his most loyal henchman, speaking with righteous indignation.

"Who do you think you are? That couple has been married for three years, and you're only just showing up now? Too late! And now you're saying their wife is yours? You want a beating?"

Faced with the cacophony of condemnation from the crowd, Lu Mingfei could clearly sense that Zhao Xuzhen was beginning to grow impatient.

He thought for a moment, then stuffed the large piece of crab roe he had just peeled into his mouth, the rich, oily flavor bursting on his tongue.

"Hey, are you all watching?" With one hand under the table, he placed talismans on his limbs, while the other hand dialed Zhou Minhao's number: "Do I have to do whatever I want?"

"certainly."

Lu Mingfei looked up.

At the highest point of the painted boat's railing, Zhou Minhao stood, holding a camera in his hand, his black clothes fluttering in the night wind.

They adopted an attitude of indifference, as if it were none of their business.

Come on.

He realized that he had been left behind.

What a damned supervisor! He let him take on so many old bodyguards all by himself.

"Is this also what you call Nuwa's intention?"

To be honest, Lu Mingfei didn't have any objections to the fact that it was just one person.

This mission was half-forced by the Nuwa Lord, and half-voluntarily undertaken by him, in order to keep Old Tang from coming into contact with the world of the Dragon Clan for the time being, and also to buy more time.

But he grew increasingly displeased with the so-called Nuwa.

However, this is only for this mission; just bear with it and it will pass.

There was a few seconds of silence on the other end of the phone. Zhou Minhao didn't speak, but instead a woman's voice came through:

"Yes, that's what I mean." Besides the voice, there were also sounds of a joystick clicking on the other end, clearly indicating that even as they were about to begin their mission, the other person was still playing a game.

It's even bigger than his gaming addiction.

"If you're scared, just give us a signal. We won't force you to your death. I won't laugh at you... for being too loud."

"Come on." Lu Mingfei rolled his eyes. Because of what she had done before, he didn't have a nice tone to her. "You haven't even managed to pull off a super move, and you're worrying about whether I'm going to die. You're quite nosy."

He raised his hand and hung up the phone, then broke open another female crab.

"You're the one who didn't manage to make it!!"

Hundreds of kilometers away, a girl with a human body and a snake tail was seriously rubbing a controller. As soon as Lu Mingfei finished speaking, the controller slipped from her hand, and a faint blush appeared on her face.

"It was just a mistake! A minor mistake!"
