The Strongest Dandy in the City-Chapter 634 You Are a Coward

Since Yoshida Masao had praised Huaxia Country as the land of courtesy, and then fabricated this lame excuse about traffic congestion, the senior figures like Yu Fengnian, Yang Yuan, and Ye Zhenhong couldn’t very well keep a straight face. However, upon seeing Yoshida Masao’s blustering, their anger was impossible to suppress.

"Indeed, Huaxia Country is a land of courtesy. Unfortunately, there are those who don’t appreciate the face given to them, such individuals must certainly have issues with their quality and upbringing. Living in such a country, is their sense of propriety still in the primitive stage?" Ye Chenfeng, sitting in his chair, casually shrugged as he spoke.

Yu Fengnian, Ye Zhenhong, and other Huaxia high-level officials turned their gaze toward Ye Chenfeng, who seemed to be talking to himself. Yoshida Masao was both able to understand and speak the language of Huaxia, so of course he understood the insinuation in Ye Chenfeng’s words. Staring at Ye Chenfeng displeasedly, he said, "Young man of Huaxia, what do you mean by that? Despite your country’s reputation as a land of courtesy, what I’m seeing now appears to be entirely undeserved."

"Chief Yu, what qualifies this ill-mannered boy to sit here?" Yoshida Masao asked, looking at Yu Fengnian.

Ye Chenfeng stood up from his chair, not waiting for Yu Fengnian to speak, he interjected, "Did I mention you just now? Don’t flatter yourself. Or is it that you’re feeling guilty? Thinking that what I said applied to you?"

Ye Chenfeng took two steps forward and continued, "Since you’re looking for trouble, let Ye Chenfeng make you utterly convinced today. Wasn’t it your Island Nation that persistently requested to hold this special forces exchange with our Huaxia Country? Just answer me, yes or no? I don’t mind if you’re too scared to answer."

Yoshida Masao, looking somewhat ugly, said, "Boy from Huaxia, I want to see what tricks you’re playing. If it turns out you’re spouting nonsense, then you’d better vanish from my sight immediately."

Seeing Yoshida Masao agree to engage, General Wu of Wu Anguo’s complexion eased, smiling quietly and speaking in a low voice to Yu Fengnian who was just about to interject, "Old Yu, Chenfeng isn’t someone who suffers losses easily. Let him stir things up. Besides, Yoshida Masao is clearly not taking us seriously!"

Yu Fengnian thought General Wu’s words made sense, so the thought of stepping forward to intervene vanished from his mind.

"Now, aren’t you supposed to answer my first question?" Ye Chenfeng spoke nonchalantly.

After pondering for a dozen seconds, Yoshida Masao replied, "This special forces exchange was indeed proposed by our Island Nation."

"Hmm," Ye Chenfeng nodded, saying, "Not bad, at least you’re not shameless enough to lie. As you said, this special forces exchange was proposed by your Island Nation. You were aware of the official start time for the exchange, weren’t you? Yes or no?"

Yoshida Masao, who had deeply studied the culture of Huaxia, knew the language of Huaxia was an art, where one could fall into a pit without even noticing. Thus, when he heard the second question, he sensed that the young man from Huaxia was trying to trap him.

Seeing Yoshida Masao delaying his reply, Ye Chenfeng went on, "Let me answer for you! You definitely knew that the exchange was to officially start at nine this morning. You mentioned Capital City’s traffic was too congested, couldn’t you have set off a few hours earlier? Maybe you’ll tell me you didn’t know it would be that congested. Then you couldn’t have called to let us know? Don’t tell me none of you carry mobile phones? Or are all of you mute, unable to use phones to communicate?"

"Next time don’t make up such poor excuses about traffic congestion. Even the excuses made up by children in our country’s kindergartens are a hundred, a thousand times better than yours."

Yoshida Masao’s face alternated between shades of green and red, unable to think of a rebuttal to Ye Chenfeng. His breathing grew rapid; with his chest rising and falling slightly, the three Island Nation men standing behind him glared furiously at Ye Chenfeng.

Seeing Yoshida Masao and his companions at a loss, Yu Fengnian, Ye Zhenhong, and other high-level officials felt extremely satisfied. Yu Fengnian patted Ye Chenfeng’s shoulder, saying, "Chenfeng, no matter what, Mr. Yoshida is still our guest in Huaxia. If our guest acts impolitely, let’s not be petty about it."

"Mr. Yoshida, let us officially start today’s special forces exchange," Yu Fengnian then addressed Yoshida Masao, his message could not be clearer—he had already affirmed Ye Chenfeng’s statement.

Yoshida Masao managed a strained smile, realizing this was not the time to regain face. Their Island Nation had repeatedly requested this special forces exchange with Huaxia with the intention of causing Huaxia to lose face. Everything would have to wait until the exchange to settle the score.

"Director Yu, let me introduce the three individuals behind me, who are representing the Island Nation in the exchange match today. These three are our nation’s finest special forces soldiers. From left to right, their names are Fujikawa Koichi, Okamoto Kazukiyo, and Nagatani Yoshiharu," Yoshida Masao introduced to Yu Fengnian and the other senior leaders.

Fujikawa Koichi is an Island Nation man in his early thirties wearing the distinct military uniform of the Island Nation, with a defiant expression on his face and a provocative gaze fixed intently on Ye Chenfeng.

Okamoto Kazukiyo is an Island Nation man around forty years old, his eyes filled with a fierce aura that suggested he had spilled much blood before, and a powerful aura faintly radiated from him.

Nagatani Yoshiharu is an Island Nation man of about thirty-seven or thirty-eight, the strongest among the three, with an expressionless face but his eyes occasionally glancing at Ye Chenfeng, filled with endless coldness.

"Mr. Yoshida, this special forces exchange match will adopt a best-of-three format, and each side will send out three special forces soldiers. In the course of the match, lives must not be taken, as this is just a competition, after all," Yu Fengnian said to Yoshida Masao.

"Director Yu, there will inevitably be injuries as our personnel confront each other, but I definitely support your view about not taking lives, since it’s only a match," Yoshida Masao said.

"That’s good to hear, so let’s officially start the match now! Mr. Yoshida, who will you send out first?" Yu Fengnian asked.

"Fujikawa, you go first," Yoshida Masao instructed Fujikawa Koichi.

Upon seeing Fujikawa Koichi step onto the drill field’s ring, Yoshida Masao said to the Huaxia Country’s senior leaders, "Fujikawa is the weakest among the three, Director Yu. Which special forces soldier will your country send out?"

Before Yu Fengnian could reply, Fujikawa Koichi, who had walked onto the ring, pointed his finger towards Ye Chenfeng beside Yu Fengnian and others, and shouted loudly, "Huaxia boy, do you have the guts to fight a battle with me?"

The spectator seats around the arena were filling up gradually, Soldier King Group had added sixty new members before, and these sixty members came from various military districts across Huaxia Country, and now sat together. As for the veteran members of the Soldier King Group, they were seated in the relatively front rows of the audience. When the new sixty members saw Fujikawa Koichi on the stage pointing at Ye Chenfeng, they immediately started buzzing with discussion.

"Damn! Who is this guy? How can he sit with all the top leaders?"

"Could this kid have some special identity? Now that the special forces from the Island Nation are actively provoking him, do you think he’ll accept?"

"If he doesn’t accept, he’ll lose face all the way to Siberia. Will he still have the face to sit next to the top leaders?"

...

From the premier seats of the spectator section, Yoshida Masao watched Ye Chenfeng with a meaningful look, remembering how Ye Chenfeng had made him lose face earlier and wishing he could tear Ye Chenfeng to pieces.

Ye Chenfeng, sitting calmly in his chair, stood up leisurely and sneered, "I’m not interested in playing house with you, kid. Who do you think you are? Do you believe that just because you asked me to come up and compete with you, I’m going to do it?"

Standing on the ring, Fujikawa Koichi hadn’t expected Ye Chenfeng to refuse so flatly and scoffed from his throat, "You’re a coward, a coward, are you afraid I’ll take you down?" (To be continued.
