Protagonist:

Lu Feng

Fang Yuan beside them was also amused; seeing that Tian Yourong couldn't persuade Lu Feng either, she couldn't help reaching out and tugging her arm: "Alright alright, I've told you, Boss Lu isn't someone so easily persuaded."

Then she nodded at Lu Feng, her tone carrying familiarity: "Boss Lu, we'll head off first, we'll continue patronizing your place tomorrow—"

Tian Yourong still wouldn't give up, being pulled toward the door by Fang Yuan, her mouth still non-stop saying: "Boss Lu! Seriously consider my suggestion! It's really for your own good……"

Lu Feng smiled and waved, watching the two walk out the shop door.

The diners in the hall finished eating and left one after another; Lu Feng returned to the kitchen to continue tidying up.

…………

When Lu Family Restaurant closed business, the queuing diners at the door had just dispersed.

Food Street Back Alley.

This is where Food Street centrally dumps garbage; usually very few people come, the streetlights overhead are also broken, the surroundings looking pitch-black.

Before, every time Hu Xiaoyun came here to throw garbage she was trembling with fear; a girl alone walking in this kind of dim cramped alley inevitably feels afraid.

Later Lu Feng voluntarily helped share her garbage-throwing duty; anyway it was also a convenient thing to do.

At this moment, four sneaky figures stood beside the garbage storage point, smoking and whispering.

These four people just happened to make up a tall-short-fat-thin combination.

The thin man on the far left had dyed a head of yellow hair; he had come to Lu Feng's shop to eat a few times before.

The fat man beside him had a build comparable to the former Zhu Chang; right now he looked rather agitated, unable to control his volume when speaking: "Yellow Hair, this is the place you brought us brothers to eat? You praised it like a flower, result you've led us here four times! Every time we queued half a day, and in the end didn't even get through the door before it closed!"

The more the fat man spoke the more agitated he got; the hunger in his stomach made his temper irritable too; he spat hard on the ground: "Do you know how hungry I am right now? To come eat dinner at this broken shop you spoke of, I didn't even eat lunch at noon, just waiting for this meal! Result queued over half an hour, didn't even eat a fart!"

Yellow Hair hurriedly hissed, warily glancing toward the alley entrance, afraid of being heard by passersby.

He glared at the fat man displeased, tone complaining: "How can this be blamed on me? Long ago I told you to come early come early, you insisted on playing ranked at the internet cafe until past seven before leaving; this boss only operates two hours a day, what can I do?"

"Don't say useless things!"

The fat man interrupted impatiently, slamming his cigarette butt hard onto the ground: "A guy running a broken little restaurant, yet insists on so many inexplicable broken rules! We're not here to dine and dash, not here to not pay! Yesterday Hu Ge spoke nicely asking him to open a small stove and cook a few dishes for us, result this kid didn't even give Hu Ge face, stubborn as hell; if not for people in the shop, I'd have long couldn't help but smack him!"

At this time, the tall man standing on the far right spoke.

He was half a head taller than the other three, muscles on his body looking very solid, a somewhat faded tiger head tattooed on his arm.

He is the eldest brother among these people, also the "Hu Ge" the fat man just mentioned.

Hu Ge frowned, took a fierce drag of smoke, smoke spraying from his nostrils: "I see this boss has gotten a bit wild; yesterday spoke nicely to him and he wouldn't listen, can't keep indulging him; came running here four times in a row, didn't even get a mouthful of rice, what the hell is closing so early for?"

Yellow Hair heard and hurriedly stepped forward half a step to persuade: "Hu Ge, don't! Now it's a rule-of-law society, we can't do illegal things! Isn't it just these few times not eating? If not we'll not go to the internet cafe tomorrow, come early to queue and definitely can eat, no need to stir up trouble over a little thing……"

When he previously came to Lu Feng's shop to eat, he saw Lu Feng was very polite to people, and the food was also that delicious; he still held a bit of admiration for Lu Feng in his heart, really didn't want to see these people find trouble with Lu Feng.

"Yellow Hair, I find how come you've become this cowardly now?"

The short man suddenly sneered: "Heard you went job hunting recently; how was it, submitted resumes and interviewed a few times, now think you're a white-collar elite?"

He then looked at Hu Ge, raised hand to show agreement: "I think Hu Ge's words have no flaw; we've been out mixing all these years, always others watching our faces, when did it become our turn to watch the face of a restaurant owner? Smack him a round to vent anger is good too, let him change that stubborn temper!"

"Exactly!"

The short man's words just fell, and the fat man immediately chimed in: "Every time we come we starve waiting half a day for nothing, isn't this playing us? Smack him!"

Hu Ge threw the cigarette butt on the ground, stomped it out with his shoe sole, looking at Yellow Hair with disdain: "Yellow Hair, if you're scared, hurry up and leave now; us three without you isn't impossible, but afterwards you also don't say you hang with us, I can't afford to lose that face."

As he spoke, he raised his hand pointing toward the alley entrance, movement full of impatience, meaning for Yellow Hair to scram quickly.

"Fine fine, I'll listen to you Hu Ge."

Yellow Hair hung his head, voice somewhat unwillingly agreeing.

He really didn't want to go find trouble with Lu Feng, but also didn't dare not agree.

The four of them grew up playing together since childhood, called each other brothers for many years; usually whatever they did was the four together.

If this time he retreated before battle, Hu Ge would definitely kick him out of their little team.

Then not only would he lose three closest brothers, later other little hoodlums would also laugh at him "coward" "no loyalty".

In the jianghu, the most important thing for those who come out to mix is a "loyalty" character.

"Now that's like words."

Hu Ge satisfiedly patted Yellow Hair's shoulder, then glanced toward the alley entrance, confirming no one was coming this way, quietly told his three little brothers roughly his plan.

"Just these; what do you think of my idea? Any omissions, hurry up and speak."

Hu Ge simply finished telling the other three, looked at them and asked.

"Hu Ge, doing it this way won't cause trouble right? Or else still switch to a Fang Clan?"

Yellow Hair's face was incomparably conflicted, stammering.

"Yellow Hair can't you be like a man? Scared of this scared of that; if you're scared go home drill into your blanket and sleep early!"

Although the short man's stature wasn't tall, his temper was extremely explosive; he cursed at Yellow Hair, then looked at Hu Ge nodding agreement: "Hu Ge, do it like this; but later be careful not to injure his hands, otherwise he can't cook later, us brothers later still counting on him to cook for us!"
