Li Wei deliberately walked around Ye Zi and Xiao Fang towards the car door, but unexpectedly, Ye Zi suddenly stepped in front of him.
With a dark expression, Li Wei confronted Ye Zi, asking, "Ye Zi, what do you want?"
Ye Zi exaggeratedly placed a hand on his chest and jumped back, blocking the car door. He shouted at Xiao Fang with a shocked expression, "Oh my, Young Master Wei is angry! I'm really scared! Xiao Fang, do you have any quick-acting heart-saving pills? Hurry up and help me out!"
Xiao Fang laughed and stood next to Ye Zi, saying with a forced smile, "Ye Zi, I’m perfectly fine and didn’t bring that stuff. But I bet Young Master Wei has some on him. Should I help you check if he has any?"
Ye Zi nodded repeatedly, "That makes sense. Young Master Wei is always in trouble; he must have some stock."
Xiao Fang grinned and reached for Li Wei's collar. Li Wei's expression changed as he shouted at Ye Zi and Xiao Fang, "Ye Zi, Xiao Fang, don’t think I’m really afraid of you."
Suddenly, Zhao Jun intervened, grabbing Xiao Fang's wrist and growling softly, "If you dare to touch my buddy with even a finger, I'll chop your hand off."
Before Xiao Fang could respond, Ye Zi had already jumped in front of Zhao Jun and Li Wei, glaring at him. "Where did this fly come from?"
Zhao Jun shrugged off Xiao Fang's hand and waved his palm dismissively in front of him with a smirk. "Yeah, there are plenty of flies around."
Ye Zi's expression changed as he swung his fist toward Zhao Jun, shouting, "Beat him up!"
Ye Zi still had some reservations about Li Wei; teasing or insulting him wasn’t a big deal. But when it came to throwing punches, he was more cautious.
However, there were no psychological barriers when it came to hitting Zhao Jun. He could casually insult Li Wei; what was the harm in beating up someone who followed Li Wei around?
Moreover, he noticed that Zhao Jun looked unfamiliar and was certain that Zhao Jun wasn’t part of their circle. A nameless nobody could easily be dealt with; it would also serve as a warning to Li Wei.
The leaves rustled, and Xiao Fang defiantly swung a fist at Zhao Jun.
"Damn it, this kid actually dared to grab my wrist earlier. He deserves a beating."
Zhao Jun kicked aside a suitcase next to him, clenched his fists, and charged directly at Ye Zi.
To capture the leader first, he noticed that Xiao Fang listened to Ye Zi.
Just as a brawl was about to erupt, the vice president of the travel agency, Shen Kun, suddenly rushed into the fray. With quick reflexes, he grabbed Zhao Jun and Ye Zi's wrists, using his body to block Xiao Fang's attack. In an instant, he separated the two sides of the conflict and smiled broadly as he said, "Everyone, please give my little brother some face; let's talk this over."
"What the hell is your face worth?" Ye Zi raised his other hand and slapped it toward Shen Kun's face.
Shen Kun pulled back with Ye Zi and Zhao Jun's wrists in his grip, dodging the slap aimed at him and shifting their positions.
He didn't let go of Zhao Jun and Ye Zi's wrists but continued to stand between them. With a smile plastered on his face, he said to Ye Zi, "You're right, my face isn't worth a dime. I'm just suggesting something for you, Ye Zi. Why don't you hear me out?"
After two failed attempts to attack, Ye Zi's face turned as dark as a pot bottom. He glared at Shen Kun and shouted, "Let go of your damn paws."
Shen Kun smiled and released Ye Zi and Zhao Jun's wrists, raising both hands to shield himself between them as he said, "Ye Zi, Fang, Wei, and this Teacher Zhao here—I'm just making a suggestion. You see, our activity this time is 'Winner Winner, Chicken Dinner.' If there are any grievances among you all, we can settle them in a chicken-eating way. Once we get to the island, everyone can rely on their own skills; however you want to retaliate against each other is fair game. Plus, this is allowed by the rules of our event: survival of the fittest. When that time comes, the losing side can only blame themselves for being outmatched. What do you think of my suggestion?"
Ye Zi paused for a moment before suddenly laughing: "Right! How did I forget about that? Shen Kun, will there be a global live broadcast once we reach the island?"
Shen Kun nodded affirmatively: "That's right. Our headquarters has invested ten million dollars to install surveillance equipment all over the island."
Ye Zi grinned and pointed at Li Wei and Zhao Jun: "So when the time comes, broadcasting these two kneeling on the ground eating shit won't be a problem?"
Shen Kun replied hesitantly, "Well... uh... heh heh... Ye Zi is joking. However, our headquarters' surveillance equipment on the island can indeed make that happen."
Ye Zi laughed arrogantly, "That's good. If I don't see their live stream of eating shit when the time comes, I'll tear down your damn travel agency when I get back. I mean what I say."
The earlier scuffle had been a spark in the heat of the moment, and Li Wei only now reacted. He looked at Ye Zi and smirked, "Ye Zi, who knows who will be the one live streaming eating shit by then."
Ye Zi chuckled as he walked up to Li Wei, staring into his eyes and asked, "Wei Shao, do you dare to bet with me?"
Li Wei scoffed, "What kind of bet?"
Ye Zi grinned, "Ten million in cash. Whoever dies first loses ten million. The one who dies first not only has to lose ten million but also has to live stream eating shit. Do you dare to bet?"
Li Wei's lips twitched slightly. He could grit his teeth and afford ten million in cash, but live streaming eating shit was simply too hard to accept.
Seeing Li Wei's expression, Ye Zi burst into laughter, "Scared? If you're scared, get on the ground and lick my shoes. After that, all our past grievances will be wiped clean, and I won't hold you accountable for Jiang Rui's matter."
Jiang Rui?
Zhao Jun furrowed his brows slightly. It turned out that the conflict between Ye Zi and Li Wei was related to Li Wei's girlfriend, Jiang Rui. It seemed this was yet another melodramatic tale among the wealthy.
Facing Ye Zi's arrogance, Li Wei clenched his teeth and said to Ye Zi, "I'm betting with you. I'm just afraid that your appearance while eating shit will disgust people."
Ye Zi laughed heartily, "We'll see who ends up eating shit then."
Shen Kun noticed the two had signed a betting agreement and temporarily set aside the current dispute. He hurriedly picked up the luggage of Li Wei and Zhao Jun with a fawning expression and said, "Wei Shao, Teacher Zhao, let me take you to the car."
Li Wei grunted darkly as he brushed past Ye Zi and entered the minibus.
Zhao Jun withdrew his gaze from Ye Zi's face and rubbed his wrist while watching Shen Kun walk toward the car door. He asked casually, "Shen Kun is pretty quick on his feet; has he practiced before?"
"Teacher Zhao is just joking," Shen Kun said with a smile. "I’ve only worked out at the gym for a few days; I just got a bit carried away earlier."
Zhao Jun chuckled lightly, feeling a dull ache in his wrist where Shen Kun had grabbed him. It was impressive that someone who had only trained for a few days could have such skills.
Leaf Skin watched as Li Wei and Zhao Jun climbed into the minibus, then turned to the still aggressive Xiao Fang beside him and instructed, "Xiao Fang, find out what kind of person this Teacher Zhao is."
With a mischievous grin, Xiao Fang pulled out his phone from his pocket. "This is easy. I'll call Jiang Rui; he definitely knows people who are close to Li Wei. If this guy turns out to be nobody special, we can take him down once we get to the island."
Inside the vehicle, Zhao Jun glared at Ye Tong outside and asked Li Wei, "Who is this guy? Why does he have such a grudge against you?"
Li Wei took a deep breath and replied, "His name is Ye Tong. He’s the second son of one of my dad's major shareholders. We had some issues over Jiang Rui, and ever since he failed in love, he’s been targeting me everywhere. If it weren't for my dad telling me not to provoke him, I would have already confronted him. That Xiao Fang is Fang Jia Shen; his family is also quite powerful—his dad is..."
Zhao Jun shook his head with a wry smile. It seemed that everyone on this trip, except for him, was either wealthy or influential. He felt like the odd one out.
Suddenly, Li Wei grabbed Zhao Jun's arm and whispered urgently, "Zhao Jun, once we get to the island, it's up to you to handle things. You have to help me win against Ye Tong. If you do, I'll give you a million; all I want is to see that guy live-streaming his humiliation."
Zhao Jun sighed and shook his head. "Let’s see how it goes once we get there. I have a feeling this event isn’t going to be simple; we’ll just have to take it step by step."
Li Wei insisted fiercely, "As long as I can see him live-streaming his downfall, it’ll be worth it."
Zhao Jun shook his head again with a bitter smile as he gazed through the window at Ye Tong's face before shifting his attention to Shen Kun, who was flattering and chatting with him.
