At this moment, Nie Zhenbang was obviously ready for a show. Honestly, Nie Zhenbang didn’t care much about matters of affection. In Jingcheng, many crown princes liked to pursue women, elegantly, relying on their charm. In this era, those who could get rich information were still these elites. Playing with charm and romance all required time.

In “Outlaws of the Marsh”, the five major elements of attracting women that Wang PO and Ximen Qing spoke about, were hardly a problem for the troublemakers in Jingcheng.

The so-called beauty of Pan An, wealth of Deng Tong, and leisure. First of all, the young generation of Jingcheng, their ancestors were senior members of the military and government. Just old bachelors. Marrying a beautiful woman was a genetic optimization starting from the first generation. In the second generation, there were more unions between the upper echelons, both parents were not bad looking. By the third generation, for the majority, with the exception of a very few, appearances were not a problem.

Secondly, the size of the “donkey” depended on individual differences. This was something difficult to assess. However, aphrodisiacs were consumed in abundance. As long as there weren’t any excessive indulgences, this shouldn’t be a problem.

Third, they needed to have wealth like Deng Tong. This aspect was the least difficult for these elites. Compared to the hardship of the older generation, the new one found it easy. With the start of reform and opening up, they could easily sell off a bit of something using their power and have enough to splurge.

The fourth point, gentle care, was not lacking for those who wished to play with charm and romance. If even this patience was lacking, then it wasn’t about elegance anymore, but about bullying women.

The fifth is leisure. Everyone needs leisure time. Those who were constantly rushing around for their daily meals simply didn’t have the time for love.

Nie Zhenbang never lacked in these five aspects. To be honest, if it was an ordinary woman, Nie Zhenbang could get many with just a wave of his hand. With the experience of his previous life, Nie Zhenbang knew that with the deepening of reform and opening up, the defense between men and women had completely loosened. In the twenty-first century, one-night stands were a common thing.

“Zhang Xu, what right do you have to represent me?” A crisp and pleasant voice came from Dong Wan’s mouth. The crowd instantly made way for her.

Stepping into the circle, Dong Wan’s face was very calm. Cold, this was Nie

Zhenbang’s most direct impression of Dong Wan. As expected, an ice beauty.

Nie Zhenbang did not expect Dong Wan at this moment to look at him and say gravely: “Nie Zhenbang, right? Everyone says that the third young master of Nie family is an exceptional person in this city. Seeing you now, you’re just ordinary. Your vulgar attitude. The business between you and me, you don’t need to worry about it, just continue with your sister An Ana.”

After this sentence, Dong Wan had an implied statement that she did not say, but the meaning was conveyed, Nie Zhenbang, you’re nothing special, I Dong Wan, look down on you. Do not flatter yourself.

Hearing this, the crowd gasped, and a hint of joy appeared on Zhang Xu’s face. Dong Wan directly swept away Nie Zhenbang’s face, could it be that Dong Wan favoured herself? Nie Zhenbang was startled for a moment, then he replied with a nonchalant smile: “I really appreciate your choice. This is the best outcome. It also solves a headache for me. Actually, I came over today to talk to you about this. I was worried about how to say it, but now it seems I’ve been spared.”

Nie Zhenbang was no fool. No matter how beautiful a beauty was, she was just a woman. A century later, we are all just skeletons. That’s it. Nie Zhenbang was absolutely not the kind of man who would be unable to move his legs at the sight of a woman.

Nie Zhenbang’s words also stunned Dong Wan. She was always the one rejecting others, but the Ice Beauty had never been slighted in such a way before. She didn’t know what to say for a moment. Glaring at Nie Zhenbang, Dong Wan gave a cold snort, then turned and ran off.

At this moment, Zhang Xu’s face darkened. If just now Zhang Xu saw Nie Zhenbang as a romantic rival, now Nie Zhenbang was his mortal enemy. He dared to disrespect the goddess in his heart. This made him inconsolable. Moreover, Nie Zhenbang was so arrogant in public, swaggering about, causing his goddess to be insulted. If Zhang Xu didn’t stand up for this, then he wouldn’t deserve to be the leader of the Central Military Commission’s Second Courtyard.

As expected, Zhang Xu stood up again, his face gloomy as he looked at Nie Zhenbang: “Apologize, apologize to Dong Wan immediately. Otherwise, don’t blame us for being rude.”

Zhang Xu’s attitude also irritated Nie Zhenbang, the antics of these kids. If it was his previous life, he might have been one of them. But in this life, after experiencing the pain and tragedy of the previous one, Nie Zhenbang wouldn’t waste a single moment on such trivial matters. Looking at Zhang Xu, he said: “Zhang Xu, right? I have no interest in you whatsoever. Single fight or group fight, pick your choice. Apologize? Beat me first, then we’ll talk. But remember, only this time. In the future, I won’t have so much time to accompany you.”

“Hey! I’ve seen crazy folks, but you’re a whole new breed. You’re ready for a one-on-one fight, and the same goes for a group fight. I, Zhang Xu, am not just anybody. If you lose, apologize to Dong Wan immediately. If you win, we’ll let bygones be bygones.” Zhang Xu took a step forward, taunting provocatively.

“Heh?” Nie Zhenbang chuckled, scanned his surroundings, and said, “You want a one-on-one fight? I’ll take on all of you. You want a group brawl? I’ll brawl with all of you. Cut the dawdling and act like men.”

As soon as Nie Zhenbang finished speaking, seven or eight men from Zhang

Xu’s side charged forward in fury—Nie Zhenbang’s words had struck a nerve.

Zhang Xu and his group were vastly superior to Zhou Chen’s bunch. Zhou Chen and his crew, their fighting strategy relied solely on bravery; they were all influential figures, audacious enough to crack the sky. They would dare to smash anything over their heads. However, Zhang Xu and his crew were highly skilled. Everything they fought with was the most practical wartime martial arts taught in the military. This had been the toughest and most laborious fight of Nie Zhenbang’s life.

Nonetheless, Nie Zhenbang’s decades-long proficiency in Shape-Intent Fist wasn’t for show. Despite the forceful attacks from these men, they lacked Nie Zhenbang’s resistance to blows. The measure of a fighteris based on a comprehensive evaluation.

After ten minutes, aside from Zhang Xu, everyone else on his side had fallen and lost their fighting abilities.

At this point, Zhang Xu paused, his gaze more focused than before. The admiration in his eyes as he looked at Nie Zhenbang was evident. After a while, he relaxed and said, “Nie Zhenbang, you’ve won. There’s no need to continue.”

Nie Zhenbang also nodded. Zhang Xu was straightforward and, although impulsive, was a real man. By then, everyone on Zhang Xu’s side had fallen. The gap in their strength was laid bare. It was just a matter of time before Zhang Xu went down.

Immediately, Nie Zhenbang earnestly said, “Zhang Xu, well done. You’re a real man. I, Nie Zhenbang, acknowledge you as a brother. I have some things to take care of today. Another time, we must share a drink.”

Then, Nie Zhenbang turned his head towards Nie Jiamin and the others, saying, “Alright, let’s head to Old Mo’s together. Let’s taste the charm of Moscow.”

Moscow Restaurant

This is the most famous foreign restaurant in Jingcheng. Since its opening in ’54, it has been considered a symbol of nobility and fashion. The restaurant’s fame does not come from its extravagant decor or the fact that national leaders have held banquets there, but from its service. In the early days, all the waitresses were Russian girls, and there were even lipstick and perfume provided in the restrooms.

Old Mo’s can’t exactly be considered a high-end establishment for the younger generation. Yet, many people hadn’t visited it before. The group marched into Old Mo’s in a grand procession.

Next to them, Li WenoGe started talking, “So this is Old MO’s, huh? Doesn’t look as fancy as my dad and his friends made it sound. They used to say that if you hadn’t dined at Old MO’s, you were not a complete gentleman, even linking it to their spiritual integrity. Is it really that mysterious?”

Nie Jiamin laughed as well, “Li WenoGe, what do you know? Our old folks lived in a time of scarcity. Affording to dine here might’ve meant stealing a fortune from home. Their thrill came from being poor.”

Right then, Liu Kun looked at Nie Zhenbang curiously, probing, “Brother, why did you invite us here? We surely didn’t come to experience Soviet ambiance?”

Nie Zhenbang glanced at Liu Kun, admiring him for his quickness of thought and trivia. He was a remarkable talent. Responding, half-serious, half-jesting, Nie Zhenbang said, “Heh, it’s indeed to get a feel of the Russian ambiance. To get used to Russian cuisine. I plan on going to the Soviet Union..”
