Shopkeeper Lu didn't even give City Lord Tiger a chance to sneer. "Letting his savior die while he himself escaped wasn't the worst of it. The worst of it was that after everyone else had fought tooth and nail to the point of beating Huo Lie Hu to a pulp, he actually ran back and killed Huo Lie Hu with a single blow, thus taking all the credit. Everyone is calling him a tiger-slaying hero. Ugh, bah!"
Shopkeeper Lu didn't give me any face at all and slapped me in the face!
The face of Tiger City Lord turned very ugly!
Because if what Shopkeeper Lu said was true, then the unkind and unjust person he was talking about... was his son Hu Xu!
Not only was City Lord Tiger stunned, but everyone else was stunned as well! They stared at Shopkeeper Lu in disbelief, all dumbfounded for a moment, not knowing how to react.
Lord Hu has absolute power in Yiyang City, but Shopkeeper Lu is no ordinary man either.
How could Hu Xu possibly let himself be burdened with such a reputation? He immediately sneered, "Boss Lu, it's okay if you don't like me, but you can't slander me like this! Do you think it's fun to bully a junior like this?!"
Shopkeeper Lu was so angry that he almost laughed: "I bullied you?! I, Lu Chu, have always been upright and never bully others. I never thought that I would be bullied by you at my old age. You are so powerful!"
City Lord Tiger saw that there must be some conflict. He had been close friends with Shopkeeper Lu for many years and knew his character well. So, he hurriedly said, "Brother Lu, there must be some misunderstanding. Perhaps you have misunderstood? Don't worry, don't worry. Let's sit down and talk..."
"Did you see it wrong? Haha—" Shopkeeper Lu sneered. "If this happened to someone else, you might say I was blind and could have seen it wrong. But, your young city lord directly tricked me, and you say I saw it wrong?! City Lord Hu, you've lived an upright life, but I'm afraid your reputation will be ruined by your son!"
Lord Tiger was suddenly embarrassed.
"How dare you talk like that!" the mayor glared at Shopkeeper Lu. "How could the Second Young City Lord do such a thing? Also, even though you're the shopkeeper of the Luming Restaurant, you can't speak to the City Lord like that, right? It's so vulgar!"
Shopkeeper Lu was filled with anger. "Haha! Hu Xu, you don't admit this either, right?!"
Hu Xu pretended to be pitiful and aggrieved: "Boss Lu, do you hate me so much? What did I do wrong that you hate me so much that you would even bother to smear me in front of so many people? I killed Huo Lie Hu! Why did I kill Huo Lie Hu? I tried my best, I was in danger so many times, I narrowly escaped death so many times? I fought so hard, how hard did it take? How long did I fight? When did I ever run away? How did I ever frame you? Do you have any evidence to justify smearing me like this!!!"
Shopkeeper Lu felt a lot of anger in his chest, but he couldn't vent it out.
He never lies, and his words are as solid as his words. But now, no one believes him! Not only do they not believe him, but they also turn around and accuse him?!
Moreover, he really couldn't produce any evidence!
Shopkeeper Lu's chest heaved violently, he was really angry!
Chang Mian was also very angry, but he had no evidence.
At this moment, Su Luo looked at Hu Xu with a faint smile: "What if I have evidence?"
"Hahahahaha, you have evidence? What evidence can you have?" Hu Xu sneered, "Okay! If you can really produce evidence to prove that I betrayed Shopkeeper Lu and that I came back to grab the first kill, then I will..."
