Chapter 123: Chapter 120: Signature Song

(For certain reasons, two of the names have been slightly altered. If you know, you know.)

Before the apocalypse, maybe some of Cai Taimei’s rabid fans would have actually wanted his autograph.

Mengde could have turned around and sold it, probably making a pretty penny.

But this was the apocalypse.

What the hell was he going to do with this chicken scratch?!

So he refused without a moment’s hesitation.

"I don’t want your autograph."

"Just dance to one of your hit songs for me..."

Cai Taimei froze, his face a mask of disbelief.

"You don’t want my autograph?!!"

"Before the apocalypse, you couldn’t have gotten my autograph even if you had all the money in the world!"

Beside them, Zhang Dada, who had been beaten half to death,

...stubbornly piped up.

"You... you look down on... my Taimei’th autograph."

"I’m... I’m gonna file a complaint againtht you..."

"And I’m gonna have Taimei’th fanth come after you all online."

"You... you’re all finithed..."

After saying his piece, Zhang Dada probably tried to laugh.

But because his mouth was all twisted up,

...all that came out was a duck-like "QUACK QUACK QUACK."

It was not only jarring to the ear, but his words came out in a windy hiss!

Mengde really couldn’t stand to listen anymore.

’Sigh, he’s already been beaten this badly,’

’how is he still so foul-mouthed?’

’He’s really not going to give up, is he?’

Mengde waved his hand.

Leng Feng and Lei Qiang immediately got the message.

Seeing that things were going south, Zhang Dada...

...immediately tried to run!

"Don’t... don’t you guyth come over here."

Ignoring Zhang Dada’s foppish, sissy-like attempt to wave them off,

...Leng Feng and the others charged forward with savage grins and landed a solid kick on him.

Mengde had stopped them earlier, so they hadn’t had their fun yet!

And so, Zhang Dada was once again beaten until he was screaming incessantly.

The simple-minded Tiezhu chimed in, twisting the knife.

"Er Gouzi,"

"your mouth is so foul!"

"Even I, Tiezhu, disown you now!"

The moment he finished speaking,

...a massive, size-18 boot slammed right into Zhang Dada’s body.

It left behind... some sort of unidentified yellow substance...

The corner of Mengde’s mouth twitched...

’Holy crap!’

’The case of the "Lucky Dog Shit"...’

’...can finally be solved!’

’There is only one truth!’

Mengde silently backed away a few steps. ’So damn fragrant...’ he thought.

"Get your thtinking foot off me..."

"Taimei, you... you gotta thave me!"

Listening to Zhang Dada’s miserable screams from the side,

Cai Taimei’s heart ached for him.

This was his bestie, after all!!

But he wasn’t a complete idiot; he knew who was in charge here.

He gritted his teeth as if he had made a momentous decision.

"You don’t want my autograph, so... I’ll give you the opportunity to take a photo with me as a souvenir."

"Now you should be satisfied. You can let my Dada go, right?"

As he spoke, he flicked his yellow bangs, looking as if he had just bestowed a tremendous honor upon Mengde.

Mengde’s eyes widened. ’Is this guy really that shameless?’

But before he could say anything, the beleaguered Zhang Dada stubbornly piped up again.

He was like an unkillable cockroach.

"Taimei, don’t!"

"How... how could you take a picture with thith low-clath twath?!"

"They’re not worthy of it!!!"

Hearing this, Cai Taimei’s heart ached even more.

"Oh, Dada, don’t talk anymore."

"To save you, I’m willing to make a small sacrifice!"

"Ah!"

"Taimei, you’re tho good to Dada!!!"

"You bunch of twath, let me go!"

"Taimei made thuch a big thacrifice."

"You thould be thatithfied now!"

Zhang Dada pounded his chest and stamped his feet.

He burst into loud, emotional sobs!

Mengde was speechless.

He couldn’t tell if the guy was crying from the beating or from being moved.

Either way, he was thoroughly disgusted.

"Scram! If you’re not going to dance, then get the hell out!"

"Some trashy photo op, and you dare act all high and mighty with me!"

"You think you’re worthy???"

Cai Taimei, who had just finished reapplying some bright red, women’s lipstick, heard this.

He let out a shriek of disbelief.

"Impossible!"

"Absolutely impossible!"

"I am someone who will forever be out of your league."

"And you dare to again refuse the photo opportunity that I, Cai Taimei, have deigned to bestow upon you?!!"

At this, he seemed to have an epiphany.

A disdainful expression instantly appeared on his face.

"Hmph! No wonder you’re all low-class trash!"

"Such a great opportunity is right in front of you,"

"and you don’t even know how to cherish it!"

"I see now that you’re fated to be low-class trash your entire lives!!"

"You’ll never reach the heights of an upper-class person like me!"

Mengde’s expression immediately darkened.

"Leng Feng, beat him to within an inch of his life."

"You got it, Boss!"

This was what Leng Feng and the others had wanted to do all along!

And so, they started hitting harder and harder!

Seeing this, Cai Taimei completely lost it.

He rushed over, extending his long, womanly fingernails, and tried to claw at Mengde’s face!

"You goddamn piece of trash."

"Make them stop right now."

"With me, Cai Taimei, here today, you have no choice but to let him go!!!"

Hearing this, Mengde frowned.

"Shut up!"

"You’re too damn noisy!"

He threw a backhanded slap!

SMACK!!

The slap was so hard Cai Taimei began to question his own existence.

He clutched his reddened cheek, collapsed to the ground, and started wailing.

"You dared to hit me! You actually dared to hit me!"

"I want you all to die!!!"

"My fans won’t let you get away with this."

"I’m going to report you!"

"Just you wait, you’re all dead!!!"

"My handsome face... WAAAHHH~~~"

Mengde’s frown deepened.

This guy cried like a total sissy.

He just couldn’t understand.

Why would so many people be fans of someone like this?

’Are they all really just a bunch of goddamn rabid fans?!’

"So you refuse my kindness and choose to be shameless!!"

"Leng Feng, drag this one over too!!"

"They’re such good besties, they should suffer together, shouldn’t they!!"

Hearing Mengde’s words, Cai Taimei was stunned.

"What... what are you going to do to Taimei??"
