Hong Daoren said, he inverted a bowl on the table, tapped it three times with his chopsticks, and shouted at the beautiful singer in the moon, "Aren't you coming down quickly to accompany your man, Lu Guangtao!"
As soon as the words fell, the beautiful singer immediately floated down from the moon and came before Lu Guangtao. She bowed and said coyly, "Brother Lu, I've arrived!"
The address "Brother Lu" almost made Lu Guangtao's soul fly away.
"Ah, beauty, don't be polite. I'm so happy to see you. Come, let's go to my room!" Lu Guangtao immediately pulled the beautiful singer into his arms, completely ignoring Hong Daoren and his son Lu Xiaofei in the living room, and went straight to the bedroom.
"Xiaofei, let's continue drinking!" As they raised their glasses to drink, a sound of wild male and female voices came from the bedroom.
The next morning, Lu Guangtao woke up, and the beautiful singer was nowhere to be found.
He felt as if the night of madness from last night until the morning was a dream.
Hong Daoren had not left that night and stayed at the Lu family's home. At breakfast the next day, he asked Hong Daoren about the incident with the beautiful singer the previous night.
Upon hearing this, Hong Daoren burst into laughter and said, "When true is false, false is true; when false is true, true is false. The beautiful singer you and Xiaofei met yesterday was all within a soul dream created by my magic!"
Lu Guangtao couldn't help but feel greatly disappointed, saying, "According to what Hong Daoren said, my madness with the beautiful singer was just a futile joy?"
"That's where you're wrong!"
Hong Daoren shook his head and said, "The Daoist technique I used yesterday was actually a soul-stealing technique. In other words, I borrowed the beautiful singer's photo and stole one-third of her soul to be with you."
"You can say that she also felt the madness you experienced last night. The problem is, her one-third soul has been bound to you by me. She can't leave you now!"
"Just you wait and see, she'll call you soon!"
As soon as he finished speaking, Lu Guangtao's mobile phone rang.
He took out his phone and looked at it, his face instantly filled with surprise and joy as he said, "Hong Daoren, you've predicted it correctly! It's the beautiful singer calling."
Hong Daoren became even more smug and laughed, "I dare say she's calling you to arrange a meeting, and she'll be the one to suggest a room."
Just as Hong Daoren predicted, the beautiful singer called again, this time to arrange a meeting with Lu Guangtao that evening.
In less than a year, Lu Guangtao divorced his first wife and started a new family with the beautiful singer.
It was also because of this incident that Hong Daoren left an extremely profound impression on Lu Xiaofei, whom he revered as a god in his heart.
At this moment!
In the Hongyun Grand Hotel in the provincial capital, Lu Xiaofei impatiently said, "Hong Daoren, can you help me get Shen Ruobing here tonight?"
Hong Daoren immediately shook his head and said, "Xiaofei, haste makes waste. You need to understand that this Shen Ruobing is not comparable to the beautiful singer your father encountered back then. She has a strong personality. To get her, you must first suppress her arrogance!"
"With Shen Ruobing's comeback this time, she is bound to make a stunning debut in the furniture industry. Just wait, after midnight tonight, tomorrow's champion of the furniture exhibition competition will be yours, Lu Xiaofei."
"After Shen Ruobing suffers a heavy blow, tomorrow night, she will be yours!"
Upon hearing this, Lu Xiaofei was so excited that his whole body was trembling.
"Hong Daoren, if you help me get Shen Ruobing and then deal with Bai Yiling properly, I will give you thirty percent of the shares in my group company!"
Hong Daoren smiled and said, "Alright, nephew Xiaofei, with your words, this Daoist is very happy. We'll drink slowly tonight. After noon, more than half the battle will be won!"
"Hong Daoren, Bai Yiling and Shen Ruobing are both very skilled. If the people you send to sabotage their exhibition area are discovered by them, I'm afraid they won't be able to escape?" At this moment, the tall bodyguard said with some concern.
Hearing him say this, Lu Xiaofei's heart also tensed up.
He immediately said, "Yes, Hong Daoren, are the two people you sent out capable?"
Hong Daoren chuckled, shook his head, and said, "It is indeed sometimes difficult for me to communicate with ordinary people like you!"
"Let me tell you the truth, the two people I sent out this time are made of paper by me, meaning they are paper figures!"
"These two paper figures possess the art of invisibility and the ability to traverse. In other words, even if there is a wall in front of them, they can stick to it and pass through to the other side!"
"Tell me, how can ordinary people discover them?"
"Wow, Hong Daoren, you are too amazing!" For a moment, the people sitting at the table vied to flatter him.
They drank and listened to Hong Daoren recount some of his past adventures and anecdotes from his time in the jianghu.
When he spoke of how he had conquered eight beautiful women overnight with his evil arts, Lu Xiaofei and his four bodyguards listened with eyes as green as emeralds.
The few of them wished they could kneel on the ground and call him a celestial being.
"I can tell you this,"
At the height of his speech, Hong Daoren, spitting, said, "As long as I am willing to act for others, there is nothing in this world that I cannot accomplish!"
"There's been a legend in the jianghu recently about a person named Cheng Xiaofan, who is said to be incredibly powerful. Humph, if he were to encounter me, he would only have the chance to prostrate himself!"
"That's only natural. In this world, when it comes to Daoist arts, Hong Daoren claims to be second to none!" Lu Xiaofei immediately gave him a thumbs-up and said.
Hong Daoren squinted his eyes, gently patted Lu Xiaofei's shoulder, and smiled, "Xiaofei, after I help you accomplish this matter, I plan to go and meet that Cheng Xiaofan. I have a strange temper; I like to contend with tough characters. If I don't beat him to the ground and make him call me grandpa, I feel unbearable!" 138 Reading Network
Upon hearing this, the tall bodyguard immediately said, "This is the demeanor of a true master, a role model for us all!"
"Hahaha, uh..."
Hong Daoren laughed triumphantly, but before he could finish laughing, with a sudden "poof," he spat out a large mouthful of blood from his mouth.
He violently collapsed to the ground from his stool.
Lu Xiaofei was instantly stunned and quickly rushed to help Hong Daoren: "Ah, Hong Daoren, what... what's wrong with you?"
"Waa—"
Hong Daoren didn't have time to answer Lu Xiaofei and spat out several more mouthfuls of blood.
After a while, he finally managed to control his vomiting, but his face was as pale as paper, and his gray cloth Daoist robe was completely soaked in sweat.
His entire body was drained of strength, and he lay limply on the ground like a puddle of mud, his mouth open, gasping for breath after breath.
At first glance, he looked like someone on the verge of death.
"Hong Daoren, don't scare me! What exactly is wrong with you?" Lu Xiaofei couldn't believe his eyes. Hong Daoren had been speaking so animatedly just a moment ago, how could he have suddenly become this pathetic state.
