The moment he said that, a quiet buzz of excitement rippled through the onlookers. After all, a figure of his stature wasn't someone you could meet just any day.

Hua Chen narrowed his eyes, glancing from Zhang Binghua to Shen Lang. He couldn't bring himself to believe it, but seeing the genuine expressions on the faces in the crowd, a part of him couldn't help but concede it was true.
If it was real, and this blew up, he would be the one left humiliated. He would be torn to shreds by everyone online.
His face paled and flushed in turns. He slowly pushed himself up and asked warily, "What do you want?"
