Protagonist:

Lu Feng

"I'm talking to you! What's wrong? Forget not bringing your brain, did your ears go home too?"

The few people in Wu Hao's dormitory were all vigorous young men, and faced with Da K's hostile tone, they didn't flinch in the slightest.

"You few..."

Xiao Yu, who was filming a video with his phone, was just about to chime in, but was interrupted by a contemptuous voice from behind him.

"I was wondering why you looked familiar, so it's you two street rats? What, freeloading traffic all the way to Lu Boss's place?"

Da K and Xiao Yu angrily whipped their heads around, only to see Xiao Feilong standing behind them, with Zhang Chao, Gu Manman, and a few others beside him.

Although Xiao Feilong was fat, he wasn't short.

He stood there with arms crossed, looking down at Da K and Xiao Yu from above, his eyes full of disdain.

Da K looked at Xiao Feilong's massive frame, and his momentum instantly weakened by half; his mouth moved but no sound came out.

Instead, it was Xiao Yu, who usually spoke little, who now stiffened his neck and said, "This tea egg really is just average, can't we say so? We paid money, can't we even give an evaluation?"

"Heh, just based on you two?"

Xiao Feilong sneered, looking at them with a face full of disdain: "What qualifications do you two have to comment on Lu Boss's dishes? Are you gourmets or food bloggers?"

"So what, if we're not gourmets we can't evaluate?"

Xiao Yu was stunned by the question, but still very unconvinced, raising his voice: "I spent money to consume, as a consumer, can't I even complain a couple of sentences?"

"If you evaluate truthfully, then absolutely no one will care about you, you can say whatever you want."

Xiao Feilong coldly snorted, then continued: "But if you still want to deliberately distort facts and smear Lu Boss, then hurry up and get out, you're not welcome here!"

"This shop isn't yours, what are you getting so worked up for?"

Xiao Yu's eyes instantly reddened with anger, staring at Xiao Feilong and saying very displeased: "Xiao Feilong, have you gotten full of yourself? Just because your fans increased a bit recently?"

"I'm worked up?"

Xiao Feilong acted as if he'd heard some joke, pointing at the diners in the hall with his finger: "You two ask these people here, see who would agree to you smearing Lu Boss?"

"Everyone heard right? These two aren't here simply to eat at all, they're two guys borrowing the guise of fraud-busting to deliberately film nitpicking videos for traffic!"

As soon as Xiao Feilong's words fell, the diners in the hall instantly glared at the two of them.

"I said these two looked off the moment they came in, snapping photos of the price list non-stop, so they had ill intentions all along!"

The uncle driving a taxi at the next table slammed his chopsticks on the table with a "pa", his fists cracking audibly as he clenched them.

"Want to smear Lu Boss for traffic? My biceps don't agree!"

Several gym muscle men rolled up their sleeves one after another, revealing the taut muscles on their arms.

"Such a treasure shop, if it gets ruined by these two, where will we go to eat such delicious food in the future?"

The boys from Dorm 203 weren't to be outdone, lifting their tank tops pretending to wipe their mouths, revealing the eight-pack abs trained from basketball.

That exquisitely dressed career woman took out her phone without changing expression, looking like she was planning to call for backup.

Qin Ye, sitting by the window, darkened his face and beckoned toward the window.

Xiao Li, guarding outside, immediately hurried into the hall; Qin Ye said something in his ear.

Xiao Li nodded in agreement, then left the shop lightly.

Lu Feng in the kitchen, hearing the movement in the hall, walked out unhurriedly.

He didn't speak, just leaned against the counter, calmly watching the farce before him with peaceful eyes.

Hu Xiaoyun also looked at those two people, her eyes full of anger.

If not for Lu Feng standing beside her not speaking, she would have long been unable to hold back from speaking up.

"Damn it, a dog meddling in a cat's business!"

Da K and Xiao Yu fiercely glared at Xiao Feilong, thinking in their hearts.

Right now, their backs turned cold under the gaze of the whole room, faces flushed red, yet they didn't dare say a word.

They also knew their reputation outside was bad; after Xiao Feilong exposed their identities, staying another moment they didn't even know if they could walk out of Lu Feng's shop intact today.

"Brother Da K, let's go!"

Xiao Yu stuffed his phone into his pocket and stood up very toughly.

Da K also stood up, originally still wanting to say a few more harsh words.

But looking at those few gym muscle men's tiger-watching eyes beside him, truly afraid that one more sentence would exchange for a few casserole-sized fists, he ultimately swallowed it back.

"Excuse me, you two."

The two had just walked to the door when Hu Xiaoyun stepped forward two steps and blocked them.

Her face still carried a smile, very politely saying: "This shop has a rule, what's ordered must be eaten finish; if wasted, you'll be listed on the shop's blacklist, never received again."

Speaking, she pointed at their table with her finger; two plates each still had one uneaten tea egg remaining.

"This broken... this kind of place, we absolutely won't come again!"

Da K finally squeezed out a sentence.

He originally still wanted to say something ugly, but looking at the whole room's hostile gazes, immediately corrected himself and said viciously.

"Alright then, you two take care."

Hu Xiaoyun gave way, politely saying a sentence.

"Hmph!"

The two scanned the diners in the hall, glared once more at Lu Feng standing at the kitchen door with a calm face, and fled in sorry state.

"Tsk tsk, these days it's truly a case of big birds in every forest—all sorts of cats and dogs are coming to freeload off Lu Boss's traffic."

The few from Dormitory 203 tidied their clothes, picked up their chopsticks again, and continued eating while speaking loudly.

"Now that Lu Boss's fame keeps growing, it's inevitable that ill-intentioned people will set their sights on him; I reckon things like this will keep happening."

The diners at the table nearby followed up after hearing this.

"We don't need to fear a few jumping clowns; if we run into this kind of thing again, we'll do just like today and kick them straight out!"

Those muscular men said this while making a few muscle-flexing movements.

After those two left, the Hall began buzzing with discussion.

But not long after, everyone's attention returned to Lu Feng's food.

The appearance of those two did not affect the diners' enjoyment of their meal.

…………

In the narrow alley behind Food Street.

Da K leaned against the wall beside him and wiped the cold sweat that had broken out on his forehead.

He glanced toward the alley entrance, confirmed no one was following, raised a hand and patted his chest: "Damn, scared the hell out of me—I thought I'd be trapped in the Shop by that crowd; lucky I got out!"

Then he looked toward Xiao Yu, who was leaning against the wall catching his breath to one side: "You saved the video we just shot, right?"
