Chapter 777: Chapter 764 “Leave with Nothing but Yourself

“You started your own club too? Damn! I want in, save me a spot!” Zhao Zheng didn’t hesitate at all in making his request, skipping all the indirect talk!

“What’s up, has your uncle stopped restricting your movements?”

“If he restricts me any further, the Zhao Family will have no descendants! There’s a lot of mess going on that I won’t bore you with. I’m in dire straits this time and I won’t be polite! Food, drink, accommodation, transportation, you’re handling it all! Consider me joined to your club; I’ll start heading your way first thing tomorrow morning and should get to W city around noon!” Zhao Zheng said bluntly.

“Alright, come on over! You have the address, just come straight to the store! I’ll be at the store tomorrow!”

“Done deal!”

After hanging up the phone, Yue Feng’s head was still reeling!

What a mess, Zhao Zheng and Ma Tingting, such a well-matched couple, and yet so much drama! But then again, knowing Ma’s stubborn temper, it makes sense that things got messed up.

…

The next morning, after breakfast, Yue Feng took his child to the supermarket.

His brother was coming from afar, so he definitely needed a grand reception. Tired of eating out, it felt more comfortable to prepare something at home.

Driving to the supermarket for a big haul, Yue Feng received a call from an unknown number just as the clock struck ten.

He glanced at it, a short number, probably from a landline or a public phone, the kind of messy call Yue Feng encountered daily, so he hung up without hesitation.

Unexpectedly, the call came again a few seconds later.

Irritated and holding a bunch of fresh ingredients, Yue Feng immediately rejected it and blocked the number!

A few seconds later, another similar number called.

Realizing something was off this time, Yue Feng put down his groceries and answered.

“Hello? Who are you looking for?”

“Yue Feng, I’m damn annoyed with you, not just for not answering the phone but for blocking my number! I’m at the east gate of the long-distance bus station’s public phone by the supermarket, come pick me up!” came Zhao Zheng’s angry voice from the phone.

“Uh, where’s your phone? Didn’t I tell you to come straight to the store? How did you end up at the bus station?” Yue Feng was confused.

“Hurry up and come here! We’ll talk when you arrive!”

“Alright then!”

Sensing something was amiss in his tone, Yue Feng couldn’t care less, rushed to pay and left the supermarket, and drove straight to the bus station.

Twenty minutes later, Yue Feng indeed found Zhao Zheng, whom he hadn’t seen for a long time, at the east gate of the station.

He used to be a handsome, dashing young man, but this time his appearance was quite unique.

Chapped lips, a face full of grime, looking as if he hadn’t washed his face. This look didn’t resemble that of a rich young master but more like a migrant worker brother returning home after a dusty journey.

“Damn! What’s with this beggar look!” Yue Feng couldn’t help but grin and casually slapped his shoulder.

“Don’t even mention it! I haven’t even paid the shop owner for the call yet! Hurry up and pay, let’s go!” Zhao Zheng waved his hand and turned to get into Yue Feng’s Lexus SUV first.

Yue Feng paid the phone bill and turned, taking the kid with him into the car.

“What’s going on? Tell me! If you tell me now that you’re a fugitive wanted by the police, I’d believe it!” Yue Feng asked.

“I’ve broken it off with my old man! I left with nothing but my ID! Even the money for the bus ticket was borrowed from the security guard at the residential gate! 203 yuan for the ticket, and I still owe the ticket seller three yuan! Damn, it’s like a bad joke!” Zhao Zheng’s story was clearly more complicated than what he had described over the phone the day before.

“What about your phone? If you didn’t have money, you should have told me; I could have transferred you some through WeChat instead of making you borrow from the security guard!”

“Forget it! I’m such an idiot! After I hung up with you yesterday I confronted my dad, told him I was leaving to compete! He wanted me to go work at the company instead, we couldn’t see eye to eye and ended up arguing again. I got so mad that I left just with the clothes on my back! If I don’t make something of myself this time, I’m definitely not going back!”

Understanding the gist, the kid couldn’t help but cover his mouth and started laughing, his laughter growing uncontrollable until he finally burst out laughing.

Yue Feng, struggling to hold back his laughter, shook his head: “Alright, you’re the man! You’re tough, you’re this!”

As he spoke, Yue Feng gave Zhao Zheng a big thumbs up! He had heard of leaving everything behind due to divorce but leaving everything behind due to a dispute with one’s father was a first!

“Brother Zheng, you’re too awesome! Oh man! Laughing so hard my stomach hurts! It’s just a little conflict with your parents, right? You’re an adult behaving like a kid running away from home!”

After a good long laugh, the kid finally managed to compose himself, clearly puzzled by the situation.

Zhao Zheng smirked: “Let’s not talk about it anymore! I refuse to believe that I can’t make something of myself on my own! Our skills are comparable, and if you can win ‘Fishing King’, with a bit of effort, I also have a chance. Then we’ll see who was right and who was wrong!”

Yue Feng nodded: “First, settle in, and once your dad has cooled off, get back in touch with your family! They must be worried about you since you stormed off! Have you had breakfast yet?”

As soon as Yue Feng finished speaking, Zhao Zheng’s stomach grumbled loudly, having spent all his money on the bus ticket.

“Buckle up, heading home first!” Yue Feng floored the accelerator, the bulky vehicle speeding off toward the shop.

Once back at the shop, Yue Feng settled Zhao Zheng in and then unloaded all the groceries he had bought from the car.

When Yue Feng and the kid were at the shop, they usually ate with the other employees. For convenience, Yue Feng had even remodeled the back kitchen.

Mom Liu would light the stove and cook meals at meal times. Today, with customers in the shop, she had gone to the kitchen early.

Now on Yue Feng’s turf, Zhao Zheng relaxed considerably, sitting down and gulping down two big mouthfuls of cooled tea without saying a word. The kid turned and quickly brought over a plate of fruit, which Zhao Zheng grabbed and started eating without ceremony.

Yue Feng too casually grabbed a bunch of grapes and said: “Let’s have lunch first. After we eat, I’ll take you to buy some clothes and personal items! There’s no vacant room here in the shop, so is it okay if I rent a place nearby for you? You can drive my car!”

While munching, Zhao Zheng nodded: “You’re a true bro, not like those jerks who are scared to help me, worried they might offend my dad and lose their guts!”

“Are you really planning to join the club and compete?” Yue Feng didn’t pick up on that but turned the topic in another direction.

“Yeah! I’ve decided! You know, I don’t have many other hobbies! Probably the only thing I’m good at is fishing! With you as the new ‘Fishing King’, brother, making a name for myself won’t be hard at all!”

Yue Feng grimaced, his expression gradually turning serious: “Speaking of future prospects, I’ve made myself clear earlier!

Competitive fishing is not as simple as just having fun and chasing commercial contests! Training and competing are incredibly tough and very boring! Even with my full support, whether or not you can achieve the results you dream of is unknown!

Moreover, once you’re in the club, there’s a whole set of rules to follow! Even if we’re close as brothers, we still have to stick to the protocol! When it matters, you can’t falter, and you must try your best to take responsibility! You have to endure pressure from all sides!”
