Chapter 104: Chapter 104: Arriving in Fu City

The post was incredibly popular, with thousands of replies below it. The round-faced girl immediately scrolled down with her mouse wheel and started reading the netizens’ comments one by one—

"Holy crap, that’s insane! This little black dog isn’t scared of the tiger at all!"

"So amazing!"

"It’s a Divine Dog!"

"Awesome! This is way more exciting than watching TV!"

...

"This video looks real, not like it’s been edited!"

"It’s just incredible! The tiger actually ran away! Did you guys see the fear in its eyes?!"

"Holy hell, what is going on? This is badass!"

As she read through the replies, the round-faced girl felt that this probably wasn’t fake news. If it were, someone would have likely started flaming it by now. There was no way all several thousand replies were from paid shills.

Thinking this, the round-faced girl immediately clicked on the video to watch. As it played, the small black dog and the tiger faced off on screen. Erhei pressed forward step by step, and the ferocious tiger hastily retreated. The round-faced girl’s eyes widened in disbelief.

"Xu Qing, Xu Qing, look, quick! I think this video is real!" the round-faced girl suddenly cried out, pulling Xu Qing over to look.

Xu Qing couldn’t help but look at the round-faced girl’s computer. The moment she did, her attention was immediately captured by the scene on the screen.

"Huh? Isn’t that Ye Xing?" Xu Qing said in astonishment, quickly leaning in next to the round-faced girl to watch the video.

"Ye Xing? Xu Qing, you’re saying Ye Xing is in the video too?" Other colleagues nearby crowded around curiously. In no time, six or seven of them were gathered around the round-faced girl’s desk, watching the video.

"Who’s Ye Xing? You mean the dog’s owner? You know him?" the round-faced girl asked.

"Yeah, Ye Xing used to work at our company, but he quit not long ago. You’re new, Little Liy, so of course you wouldn’t know!"

"Little Liy, hurry up and replay it. We missed the beginning," a colleague urged.

The round-faced girl immediately replayed the video. The numerous colleagues all stared at the computer screen, and they were soon captivated by the footage. When they saw the little girl about to die in the tiger’s jaws, everyone’s hearts clenched in suspense.

"Holy crap, that little black dog is so fast! The tiger seems scared."

"So it really is one dog versus one tiger."

"This tiger’s such a pussy, haha."

"The little black dog’s bark is so cute, so why is the tiger this terrified? It wouldn’t be this scared even if it met its natural predator."

"Look, the tiger ran! It’s running away!"

"Judging by its size, that’s definitely a full-grown tiger. How could a big cat like that be afraid of a small dog? It’s weird. The events in the video make no sense, but why does it feel so real to me?"

"Whoa, it really is Ye Xing! The little black dog is his!"

"It’s actually Ye Xing! Could this video be real?"

"That’s strange... are my eyes playing tricks on me? I think I just saw President Chen!"

"Huh, I think I saw her too. It was just a flash in the video, like she was caught in the shot by accident. I thought I was mistaken."

"I know Sister Chen really did go to Azure Rock Temple yesterday!"

"Quick, quick, rewind it a little."

The colleagues around her said hurriedly. The round-faced girl immediately moved her mouse, rewinding the video just a bit.

"It really is President Chen!"

"They must have gone together. President Chen and Ye Xing are on good terms, and Ye Xing’s hometown is Bilin Village, which is really close to Azure Rock Temple. If President Chen was going to the temple, she would have probably asked Ye Xing to come along."

"So that means the video is probably real?"

"A little dog chased away a tiger... My god, I just feel like..."

"This is too incredible! I’ve really seen something new today!"

"When Sister Chen gets back, we have to ask her if it’s true!"

Fu City, the capital of Fujian Province, is a major coastal metropolis. It is located on the lower reaches of the Min River and along the coast. Founded in 202 BC, it has long served as the political center of Fujian.

Fu City is the political, economic, cultural, and scientific research center of the Western Taiwan Strait Economic Zone, as well as a center for modern financial services. It was one of the first 14 coastal port cities opened to foreign trade, a gateway of the Maritime Silk Road, and one of the three areas of the Pilot Free Trade Zone. Fu City was also one of the first five treaty ports opened in modern China, the cradle of the modern Chinese Navy, and the birthplace of China’s naval administration culture. It has received numerous accolades, including "Top 50 Cities for Comprehensive Strength," "Excellent Tourist City of China," "National Sanitary City," "National Garden City," "National Model City for Environmental Protection," "National Model City for Double Support," "National Famous Historical and Cultural City," "National Civilized City," "National Livable City," and one of "Forbes’ Top 100 Best Business Cities in Mainland China." The economy is prosperous, with skyscrapers rising one after another. The environment here is elegant, with many banyan trees.

After about an hour’s drive, Ye Xing finally arrived in Fu City from Luoxian County.

BEEP... BEEP BEEP BEEP!

Cars streamed back and forth on the roads, traffic lights blinked between red and green, car horns blared nonstop, and pedestrians flowed by in an endless stream.

Ye Xing drove his Porsche toward the Fuli Grand Hotel. It was a hotel Ye Xing had booked online, located in the Canglin District. After all, he might be staying in Fu City for a few days, so he needed to find a place to stay.

Actually, Ye Xing had relatives in Fu City he could have stayed with. His third uncle, Ye Guomin, and his family lived there. However, his uncle’s family was rather arrogant, and Ye Xing felt that staying at their place would probably be uncomfortable. He’d much rather have the freedom of getting his own hotel room.

The Fuli Grand Hotel was a star-rated hotel situated in a bustling area.

Driving his car, Ye Xing soon arrived at the Fuli Grand Hotel.

The hotel room was fully equipped with a TV, computer, air conditioning, a bathroom, and so on.

After putting his luggage in the room, Ye Xing lay on the bed and scrolled through his phone. Beside him, a bored little Erhei stretched out a small paw and pressed the power button on the TV, then sat on the sofa to watch. One should never doubt Erhei’s intelligence; despite being a bit of a goofball, turning on a TV was no problem for him.

Since it was still morning, Ye Xing was in no hurry to go after Sun Mingsheng. ’I need to use the most direct and effective method to take him down. That will save the most time,’ he thought. ’This kind of business is best handled late at night when everything is quiet.’

Besides dealing with Sun Mingsheng on this trip to Fu City, Ye Xing also wanted to get together with a few close classmates. After all, it had been nearly half a year since they had last met.

He swiped his phone screen, logged into QQ, and tapped on his class group chat.

The class group was very lively today, with over nine hundred ninety-nine unread messages. It seemed his classmates were in the middle of a heated discussion.

Ye Xing immediately scrolled all the way to the top and started reading.
