In the city, a teahouse.
The locals, with nothing better to do, gathered in small groups inside the teahouse, ordered a pot of tea, some peanuts, and sunflower seeds, and started bragging.
Among the gossip, it was hard to tell truth from lies.
At this moment, a man dressed in simple cloth walked into the teahouse, took a quick look around, found his usual gossip circle, and joined in. He picked up a cup of tea, took a big gulp, then slammed the teacup onto the table with a thud, drawing curious glances from those around him.
A few dishes, and it's blown up like this?
The man in cloth raised his voice and said, "You all were just sitting here gossiping and missed the most explosive event Jiangdu City has seen in over ten years. If you didn't witness it yourself, I fear you wouldn't even believe it."
As expected.
His words instantly piqued the curiosity of those around him.
"Hey! Where'd you pick up this gossip? Ten years, you say? Sounds like exaggeration to me."
