Dragon Clan: Force me to be reborn and slay dragons

Chapter 377 Imitation Criminal Chen Motong, Today's Humiliation 1
The unpleasant experience at the airport didn't bother Nuonuo. Lu Mingfei had already appeared in the capital, and she didn't care what consequences it would bring if she went against the head of the family's wishes.

Anyway, with Caesar around, they won't be able to catch him anytime soon. By the time they really make up their minds, Lu Mingfei might already be dismantling the base.

As for the punishment those four good-for-nothings who had been at odds with her since childhood would receive after their defeat, Nuonuo curled her lips into a cold smile. If she could witness them being scolded, she would definitely be the first to clap and shout "Good riddance!"

Caesar put the luggage in the trunk and sat in the back with Nono, carefully choosing his words: "Your relationship with your family is more interesting than I imagined."

“Who wants family like that!” Nono snorted, crossed her arms, and glanced sideways at Caesar: “You can have it if you want.”

"Then forget it." Caesar politely declined. The Gattuso family already had plenty of extraordinary people, and if the Chen family were to be added to the mix, things would surely escalate.

"Would you mind if I asked about the Chen family?" Caesar raised his hand and pressed the button on the partition. With the subtle sound of the machinery running, the back seat instantly transformed into an isolated island.

"It's just like what you see," Nono said indifferently. "The one in power is a cold-blooded and ruthless ambitious man who uses his children as tools and bargaining chips. He has a bunch of crazy people under his wing who crave their father's favor and will stop at nothing to get it, even stabbing each other in the back. There's also a bunch of sycophantic relatives."

"It sounds like a streamlined version of the Gattuso family, only more straightforward and less hypocritical," Caesar remarked in amazement.

Even when conflicts arise within the Gattuso family, they tacitly maintain harmony in the presence of outsiders to avoid becoming a laughingstock.

The Chen family, despite being a well-known mixed-race family, seemed completely oblivious to the concept of keeping family scandals private.

"They're hypocritical, you just haven't seen it."

Caesar sensed the disgust in her voice and didn't press the matter. After all, he knew he'd have to repeat himself when they met up with Lu Mingfei and the others at the hotel, and he didn't want Nuonuo to keep reliving those unpleasant memories. So, he changed the subject.

"How was my performance today? Are you satisfied?"

Seeing that face, which could make all the male models at Milan Fashion Week feel ashamed, magnified before her eyes, with its icy blue eyes brimming with expectation, any other normal girl would probably have already surrendered and offered herself to him with a passionate kiss.

But Nono isn't a normal girl; she's a crazy little witch.

So she remained seated calmly, her head tilted back slightly, like a cat surveying its prey, her tone flat yet undeniably alluring: "Want a reward?"

Caesar's eyes flickered at the sight, and he sat up straight to maintain a gentlemanly demeanor: "It's a boyfriend's duty, but if you insist on giving it to me, I'm not against it."

"What a character." Nono glanced at him with amusement, feeling that this was the same idiot she knew.

She leaned forward, then suddenly stopped under Caesar's expectant gaze, and slipped a piece of candy into his hand.

"Here you go, your reward."

"That's it?" Caesar looked down at the small piece of candy in his hand, and couldn't help but feel disappointed.

"Otherwise, what do you want?" Nono tore open a White Rabbit candy and popped it into her mouth. The sweetness was too mild for the American who loved sweets, but it was just right for her.

"Give it back to me if you don't want it."

Caesar glanced at her red lips adorned with lip gloss, but ultimately didn't snatch the imported White Rabbit candy. Instead, he sat down with Nono and ate the candy.

When the two arrived at the hotel, they found that everyone was there. Lu Mingfei, Finger, Lao Tang, and Long Ma Xun were playing Texas Hold'em, with Constantine acting as a sexy dealer dealing cards online.

Chu Zihang was reading a book, Erii and Xia Mi were playing games, and everything seemed so peaceful.

But... why are they all gathered in his presidential suite?
Caesar looked at the group of people who were having a great time and treating him like family, and finally looked at the quiet and handsome Chu Zihang: "I remember you guys don't have a key to this place, right?"

Chu Zihang looked up from the book, nodded at him, and then continued to study the book "How to Win Friends and Influence People".

Those who don't know him might think he wanted to uncover the distortions of human nature and the decline of morality, and then write a book called "The Weaknesses of the Dragon".

Everyone inside had already noticed the two's return, and they all stopped what they were doing.

Fingel swept away the notes that were almost covering his entire face, vowing never to play poker with Lu Mingfei again. He had thought that his calculation ability, which allowed him to dominate the Kassel math rankings, would be enough to make him rich overnight, pay off all his credit card debt with interest, and live a life of luxury.

Unexpectedly, Lu Mingfei said that gambling is prohibited in a society governed by the rule of law, and changed the chips to stickers, cutting off his possibility of getting rich from the source.

Then, during the card game, he seemed to be possessed by the god of bad luck. Not only did he get terrible cards, but he also suspected that Constantine dared not target anyone else and could only target him. However, he dared not be angry or speak out, so he just went along with his heart.

Now that Caesar and Nono have returned, he finally has a reason to escape this ordeal, throwing down the cards in his hand and shouting, "Welcome to China! Nono!"

Nono was slightly surprised by the scene when she entered, and almost used her profiling ability to analyze it, but she quickly recovered and rolled her eyes at Fingel: "Thank you, welcome back to my country!"

Fingel, seemingly oblivious to the difference between good and bad, replied, "Haha, you're welcome, it's my pleasure."

Seeing this, Nono simply ignored him, her gaze sweeping over everyone in turn, focusing on Erii, whose outfit clashed with her own, and Xia Mi, who was as beautiful as a fairy, before finally fixing her gaze on Lu Mingfei, her lips slightly pursed:
"Long time no see, junior Lu."

Upon hearing this, Lu Mingfei sighed and glared at Fingel beside him: "So, do all of you people from Kassel College have a habit of randomly recognizing juniors?"

He looked at the red-haired shrine maiden who had changed into a women's suit similar in style to the Kassel school uniform, and felt as if he had returned to the day they first met. He almost mistook this red-haired madwoman for the cute Erii.

"It's only been a month since we last met, is that considered a long time?"

"A day apart feels like three autumns. But a scholar separated for three days should be viewed with new eyes." Seeing his reaction, Nuonuo knew he hadn't taken the previous incident to heart. She breathed a slight sigh of relief while subtly offering a few words of flattery:

"Junior, you've accomplished so many great feats lately. I thought a long time had passed, but it turns out only a month has gone by."

It wasn't just her who thought it was outrageous; everyone else who heard it also thought it was outrageous.

Constantine didn't know before and thought Lu Mingfei had been awesome since childhood. It was only after Old Tang gave him some special training that he realized how good Lu Mingfei was at pretending.

In just one month, he transformed from a weed that everyone could trample on into the strongest hybrid that everyone had to offer him a cigarette and call him "boss." It's a story so outrageous that even a fabricated story wouldn't dare to be made up.

"A true hero doesn't dwell on past glories, let's not talk about such trivial matters anymore." Lu Mingfei waved his hand dismissively, subtly showcasing his arrogance.

He got up and went to Erii's side. The red-haired little shrine maiden had paused the game and was looking at the girl with the exact same hair and eye color as her with great curiosity. "See, I didn't lie to you. There really is a copycat who imitates your face and your color."

Once these words were spoken, everyone's attention was focused on the two of them, as if they were playing a game of spot the differences.

Actually, everyone knew from Lu Mingfei and Caesar that the two of them only had similar colors and did not look alike, but they couldn't resist their curiosity, which is why they all gathered in Caesar's room.

"You're the copycat." Lu Mingfei's sharp tongue finally got the better of Nuonuo, and she couldn't help but retort, though her words were weaker and less forceful than her retort at the airport.

Knowing he was up to no good, she ignored him, took a few steps forward to Erii, gave her a gentle smile, and extended her hand:
"Hello, my name is Chen Motong, you can call me Nuonuo."

Thanks to Fingel, the information broker, Nono also learned a bit about Erii and knew that she was an extremely innocent girl. After seeing her in person, she found the information to be correct, so she restrained herself a lot and was not as quirky as she was in front of others, for fear of scaring this distant cousin who was not far away.

Two pairs of crimson eyes met. Erii could sense the goodwill emanating from Nono, and suddenly wondered if Sakura's earlier claim that Nono was a madwoman was just a lie. But this was clearly not the time to dwell on such things. She extended her hand to shake Nono's, and said in fluent Chinese:
"Hello, my name is Uesugi Erii, you can call me Erii."

This self-introduction is probably the sentence she knows best. If the Mandarin proficiency test only required a self-introduction, she would definitely pass perfectly.

Two equally fair and slender hands clasped together, the difference being that Nono's hands were painted with nail polish and glitter, while Erii's hands were clean, pink, and delicate, emphasizing being all-natural and additive-free.

Others, seeing the two standing together, only felt the contrast was even more striking.

The two are similar in height and build, with the same hair and eye color, and even their eyebrows have a boyish feel. If their faces were covered, they could easily pass for twins.

The only difference between the two is their appearance, at most three-tenths similar, but their temperaments are worlds apart, so much so that they can be easily distinguished even when wearing the same clothes and makeup.

Erii is like a clear lake, rarely disturbed, and rather slow to react to the outside world.

Nono is like a fountain, surging with vibrant life force, maintaining a keen perception of everything in the outside world, and responding strongly and directly if the switch is accidentally turned on.

In short, it's like being sprayed to death with a mouthful of salt soda.

"Snap! Snap! Snap! Snap—"

A series of camera shutter clicks rang out, and everyone's eyes turned to Fingel, who was holding a camera to the side. He looked solemn, as if he were witnessing the meeting between the two heads of state and recording this historic moment.

After glancing at the photo, Fingel saw two girls with similar figures and appearances holding hands, smiling at each other before turning to look at the camera together. He nodded in satisfaction, planning to send a copy of the negative to Lu Mingfei and Erii later, and then sell it to Caesar and Nono at a high price after it was developed.

Personal relationships and business dealings are kept very separate.

loyalty!

After exchanging glances, Lu Mingfei nodded in satisfaction, and then Fingel coughed twice to put away the camera before Nuonuo could ask for a portrait fee.
"Hehe, junior sister, let me introduce you."

He cleared his throat and introduced Nuonuo one by one like a host.

Although he had casually mentioned to Nono when he was buying information that she was able to match people and names with her keen observation skills, in business the customer is king and you can't let the buyer do it themselves.

Nono wanted to get closer to Erii and build a good relationship so that Lu Mingfei would intensify his efforts against the Chen family. However, with Fingel's interruption, she was forced to back down.

Old Tang and his family of three were easy to recognize. She nodded and greeted them one by one, but she felt a little strange.

When Fingel introduced Old Tang and Longma Xun, he used his characteristic Fingel humor, but when he introduced Constantine, his tone became unusually serious.

He seemed a little wary of this strange-looking guy, even though he didn't seem aggressive at all. Could it be because they weren't familiar with each other yet?
That's even stranger. Back at Kassel College, such an obedient freshman would surely have become a target for Finger's scams, but now...

Could it be that this guy has mastered the ultimate secret of domestic unscrupulous merchants without any instruction—rip off strangers by half, and make a fortune off acquaintances?
Something is wrong, nine out of ten times something is wrong.

She noted down this point of doubt, planning to review it later when they were alone. Then she looked at the beautiful junior who was about to enter the preparatory class.

This girl has a face that every woman envies.

Nono had always considered herself to be the most beautiful woman in the world and never thought she was inferior to anyone. But after meeting Xia Mi, she had to admit that there were indeed irreparable gaps between people.

For example, the chest.

It seems that Susie might not lose.

Nono recalled Susie's hot figure, and her gaze towards Xia Mi couldn't help but carry a hint of pity.

At this age, is it still possible for her to develop further?
"Wait, what's with that old woman's look?!" Xia Mi keenly caught the subtle change in Nuonuo's eyes after she looked down for a moment. She felt a slight throbbing in her temples and her fists harden. It was hard to maintain her sweet girl-next-door image.

But in the end, she held back and smiled at Nuonuo: "Hello, senior."

Nono's heart skipped a beat when she saw her smile; she felt a jolt of electricity run through her chest. She smiled back, but was secretly alarmed.

This junior seems to have something special. Even a seasoned flirt like myself feels my heart racing. It's not surprising that Chu Zihang, that stubborn blockhead who only responds to gentle persuasion, has blossomed.

Susie, you're really in danger now!

After Fingel finished his introduction, everyone sat down again, but instead of continuing the previous activity, they all gathered around the coffee table to discuss what to do next.

Lu Mingfei cut to the chase: "Do you have any evidence of the Chen family's illegal or criminal activities?"

He paused, carefully revising his words: "Do you know where the evidence of the Chen family's illegal and criminal activities is kept?"

What do you mean? Are you looking down on me?

Nono flinched for a moment, then shook her head: "Not sure."

He knows how to judge people accurately, even when he doesn't say what he should.
