Lu Hongfang's elder brother was a driver for Pu Zaiye, so he naturally knew Pu Zaiye.
The moment Pu Zaiye turned his head, he felt a sense of familiarity, and upon closer inspection...
Holy crap...
Lu Hongfang felt like he'd been screwed by a dog, and a male one at that.
"Young Master Pu... Young Master Pu... how could it be... you?"
Lu Hongfang was so scared he started stuttering, rambling incoherently.
Wasn't he supposed to be scared and rambly?
And his tone carried a hint of confusion: Why is Young Master Pu working as a waiter?
He had heard about Pu Zaiye's heroic deeds from his elder brother, especially the highlight reel of Pu Zaiye taking on eight boxing masters single-handedly.
This was simply a man's dream, a truly formidable existence.
Setting aside Pu Zaiye's actual strength, he himself was a young master in Modu. Even the mice in his wealthy family were too afraid to leave.
If Pu Zaiye wanted to deal with him, would Lu Hongfang have any way out?
He knew very well that his current survival was all thanks to Pu Zaiye.
Pu Zaiye himself was taken aback. This guy knew him?
It didn't matter if he knew him. You were about to offend Young Master Xia. Even if the person in front of him was his father, he would uphold justice today and disown him. His son would beat his father, and then he would go and beg for forgiveness afterward.
To avoid disturbing Xia Feng's meal, Pu Zaiye grabbed Lu Hongfang by the neck and walked him outside.
Lu Hongfang, like a dog, bowed his head and kept his body low, not daring to make a sound.
Lin Lin and Zhou Zhicheng were stunned.
They had just heard very clearly that Lu Hongfang called that person Young Master Pu, and judging by Lu Hongfang's dog-like fear, this Young Master Pu was Lu Hongfang's elder brother's boss, Lu Hongfang's backer.
Suddenly, their feet felt numb all the way to their heads because they had seen Pu Zaiye kneeling before Xia Feng earlier, acting worse than a dog. That implied something about Xia Feng?
The two dared not imagine further. Zhou Zhicheng, in particular, truly regretted it.
Men's intuition was indeed accurate. He had felt something was wrong from the beginning.
Even before entering, he had this feeling, and it intensified while waiting for Lu Hongfang to arrive.
Indeed, he was not wrong at all.
Zhou Zhicheng had great faith in his sixth sense because he had once used it to catch his two ex-girlfriends cheating on him.
He had caught them every single time, and precisely in the act.
So Zhou Zhicheng had great faith in his intuition. However, Lin Lin acted without thinking and insisted on calling someone.
Now, everyone was doomed.
Zhou Zhicheng was as grief-stricken as if he had lost his parents. He hadn't felt this way even when catching his girlfriends cheating twice.
As for Lin Lin, he was completely dumbfounded. He was filled with regret.
Pu Zaiye dragged Lu Hongfang directly outside the club and slapped him twice.
Pu Zaiye's strength was considerable. He was, after all, a cultivator, albeit a rather weak one, but dealing with ordinary people was like beating a child.
Lu Hongfang had long heard that Pu Zaiye was skilled and could fight and play rough. Seeing it today, he was indeed extraordinary. The two slaps had sent him reeling, his eardrums pierced, and terrifyingly, half his face was grotesquely swollen.
Lu Hongfang gritted his teeth and didn't dare to say another word. After being spun around by the slaps, he returned to his original spot, head bowed, waiting for what was to come.
"What kind of trash are you? You dare to have designs on Young Master Xia? I'll tell you the truth, I am Young Master Xia's dog. The fact that I can be his dog is the result of my ancestors' good deeds for eighteen generations. My family's ancestral graves are smoking with good fortune."
Pu Zaiye became more agitated as he spoke, his saliva spraying like a mist onto Lu Hongfang's bowed head.
Lu Hongfang felt a chill on his ears and neck.
"If Young Master Xia wants you dead, you won't even know how you died. Do you really think you can act recklessly under my name? From now on, get as far away from me as possible."
Pu Zaiye pointed at Lu Hongfang's nose and berated him.
"Young Master Pu, what should I do now?" Lu Hongfang was so scared he was beside himself, looking at Pu Zaiye for help.
"Go up, kneel before Young Master Xia, kowtow three times earnestly, and then deal with the two who called you here." Pu Zaiye felt this was the only way.
He couldn't do anything else, nor would he intercede for Lu Hongfang.
All he could do was offer guidance.
In his opinion, there was no problem at all because Xia Feng didn't even care about him. Everyone else was an ant in his eyes. Who would bother with such trivial matters concerning ants?
"Alright, I'll go kowtow and confess immediately." Lu Hongfang quickly agreed.
"Also, just kowtow, don't say a word. After you finish, get up and leave because you don't have the right to converse with him. Do you understand?"
Pu Zaiye looked at Lu Hongfang, who was preparing to go up, and warned him again.
Xia Feng wasn't someone like you could just go up and talk to. Wouldn't that diminish his status?
"Young Master Pu, I understand." Lu Hongfang nodded earnestly.
"Go." Pu Zaiye said and walked upstairs.
Lu Hongfang's lips were already bleeding, and his cheek was extremely swollen, looking very asymmetrical. Due to the swelling, one of his eyes could barely see.
Lin Lin and Zhou Zhicheng, seeing the battered Lu Hongfang return, felt their spirits sink even lower.
Lu Hongfang ignored everyone else's feelings. Following Pu Zaiye's instructions, he walked directly to Xia Feng's table, knelt on the ground, and kowtowed heavily three times. After finishing, he got up and left, not saying a word throughout the entire process.
"Take these two with me."
After finishing his kowtow, Lu Hongfang commanded the four people he had brought with him.
He was in this situation today because of that scoundrel Lin Lin. If he didn't vent this anger, he would be letting himself down.
Lin Lin and Zhou Zhicheng didn't even have the will to resist and followed Lu Hongfang out of the club.
When Pu Zaiye returned, he stood by the side, not saying a word, diligently serving Xia Feng. Seeing that Xia Feng and his group had finished their meal, he swiftly went to pay the bill.
When Yun Yan prepared to pay, she found that Pu Zaiye had already settled the bill. She smiled and said to Xia Feng, "Teacher Xia, today is not our treat. We didn't pay the bill just now. We'll treat you next time."
Xia Feng smiled and nodded, "Okay."
After receiving Xia Feng's agreement, Luo Hanxiang and Yun Yan happily returned to the academy.
Pu Zaiye first sent Luo Hanxiang and Yun Yan back to the academy, and then returned to the villa.
This was his first time being Xia Feng's driver, and he was inevitably a bit nervous, his palms and the back of his hands sweating.
However, as a cultivator, he could still control his emotions, and there were no errors on the way. Looking at the villa ahead, Pu Zaiye felt a surge of emotion.
Was his destiny about to change?
After parking the car, Pu Zaiye quickly got out and opened the car door for Xia Feng, bowing and waiting for Xia Feng to emerge.
Pu Zaiye was very attentive in his service.
This scene was precisely what "National Little Wang" on the third-floor balcony saw. He pointed at Pu Zaiye and Xia Lin below and said:
"Lin'er, that sycophant Pu Zaiye is here."
Pu Zaiye?
Isn't that Big Cousin?
