"Do you know where Naruto live? or some sort of way for me to contact him?"

Mei Mei shook her head, "sadly, no. When he left my apartment, I was in the bathroom, so I didn't get the chance to ask him anything like his contact or where he lives"

Lin Ruoxi frowned, then she let out a sigh, 'oh well, looks like i have to search him through my contacts, since he's a foreigner it won't be that hard to find him, right? I mean how many foreigners come to Zhong Hai anyway'

"Ah! I think I remembered something about him that maybe can make it easier for you to look for him!"

Lin Ruoxi face lit up then excitedly look at Mei Mei, "I think his favorite food is Ramen, there are not many ramen restaurants and stall in Zhong Hai so it shouldn't be too hard before you can find him in one of those"

Lin Ruoxi really brighten because this was really a good clue, a foreigner who like a ramen this is clearly scooped out the scale of search, "thank you, Mei Mei, I'm sure that I would find him quickly."

"Sure, sent my best regard if you do find him"

Lin Ruoxi nodded her head, there's strong will written on her face.

'I find you Naruto, I will'

"Achooo!"

At the side of the market area, Naruto already opened up his stall while heating up ramen soup inside a stainless steel gallon.

"Naruto, are you OK? Did you not sleep well last night?"

Old lee with a worried face, asking him.

"I'm fine, I'm fine, my nose just suddenly feel itchy."

"Hehehe, maybe someone just talking about you"

"Well, I hope they didn't talk about bad things-dattebayou"

Old Lee laughed out loud and said with a satisfied tone: "Jingjing just finished her practice and already went home. She even reminds me of your kind gift, if not for you, I wouldn't have enough money for my wife and enough to let Jingjing go on her practice trip. It's all thanks to you."

Lee Jingjing was the old couple's daughter who just finished university then immediately went for training job for the last two month.

Remembering Jingjing, a sincere smile appeared on Naruto's face, he met her many times as she sometimes helped him selling ramen. She's kind and had a delicate figure. Naruto somewhat antic.i.p.ated their meeting.

"Tch, old Lee what gift? Maybe later when I don't have any rice to eat, just let me eat the leftovers for you!" Naruto joked

"Haha good, oh that reminds me, my wife and Jingjing asked me to invite you over for a dinner, you free tonight?"

"This… Thank you, but you have worked hard to feed your family. How could you ask me to eat the hard-earned meal you made?

Pretending to be angry, old Lee replied: "Just a meal of plain food wouldn't cost much. Naruto shouldn't look down on this old man!"

Naruto helplessly nodded and accepted it as he is unable to convince the stubborn old man. Old Lee's face brightened up with a joy.

But at the same moment, the group of delinquents appeared again, and a wicked grin formed on the leader's face as he noticed Naruto with old Lee.

"Naruto, bring out the money you promised! We want to have breakfast and some drinks," Chen Feng smirked.

Old Lee anxiously stepped in front of Naruto and said: "Chen Feng, don't bully people too much! Even if your father, Boss Chen, is the boss of the area, what qualifications do you have to collect protection money? Boss Chen already said that the protection money can only be collected in the afternoon, do you think we don't know about the rules?"

Chen Feng's father, Chen Dehai, was one of the infamous underworld gang leaders in the Western zone. If not for that, Chen Feng wouldn't be brazenly collecting protection money everywhere like this. When he heard old man Lee threatening him with his father's name, Chen Feng coldly replied: "you s.h.i.+tty old man, try to scare me with my dad's name huh? I think you have grown tired of living! "

"You…" before he's able to continue, Naruto tapped the old man's shoulder. Naruto frowned and scratched his hair, then he pulled old Lee backward and he embarra.s.singly said to the punk: "Chen Feng, right? Sorry, I don't have the money you want right now, how about I treat you all ramen for breakfast? I guarantee that it has the best taste around."

All the goons started laughing, while one of them saying: "Aiyaa… Big Bro Feng, does this guy think he's the Boss? Does he expect us to actually do what he tells us to do?"

Chen Feng looked like he's watching the funniest joke in the world, but he is currently enraged by Naruto's line. He then smiled maliciously, "Naruto, do you expect us to have your dog food as breakfast?! Blegh, just thinking about it makes me want to puke!"

just as Chen Feng finished his sentences, the surrounding temperature suddenly went down. everyone cannot help but felt chill down their spine.

Naruto who wore a smiley face before suddenly turned frosty:

"Do you know one type of the people I hate the most?"

Before Chen Feng managed to replied Naruto answer, he find himself hanging in the mid-air while feeling a strong grasp on his neck.

"They are the people... who insult my food…"

Naruto easily lifted up Cheng Feng as if he weighed nothing and the force he used to grasp Chen Feng's neck wasn't a joke, he felt like all the blood rus.h.i.+ng into his head, readied to explode at any time. Everyone sucked their breath because the killing intent that leaked out from Naruto.

"Y-you release brother Feng already, do you really want to mess with us?!"

"Yeah, if you do anything to brother Feng, we will not let you off!"

The bunch of delinquents didn't understand what happened, or how Naruto achieved that feat, but since they saw that their leader got caught and almost choked to death, they started throwing off threat and intimidation, hoping Naruto would be scared then released their leader.

Naruto didn't bother listening to them as he just briefly stared at them then returned to the choked Chen Feng, he slowly increasesd his strength of grasp, making Cheng Feng really in misery because of the pain on his neck and the lack of the breath. The gang getting more nervous by this action, one of them shouted: "let's just beat him up, I can't believe that he wouldn't release young master when we all attack him!"

The gang looked at the Chen Feng's head that starts to turn really red, they knew that he didn't have much time, but when they just about to launch an attack, Naruto swept each of their eyes, the gang turned silent while horror could be seen on their face, in the mind of this people, a vision being played and showed their body staked by many hot rods, the hot feeling from the rod felt so real that they felt the pain from their innermost soul. One of the gangs who couldn't bear it fall down then started screaming. The rest of the gang followed his step as they all started screaming.

The vision already stopped yet the scream in their throat relentlessly came out. They only stopped after a few minutes later, laid down on the ground while sweating all over their body. Cheng Feng still within Naruto's grasp, when he felt that his life is about the end, Naruto released him. Cheng Feng fell to the ground while coughing and gasping hard.

Naruto then let them all laid down on the ground, while old Lee and several people surrounded him let out a breath, when Naruto started to grasp Chen Feng neck, they really feared that he would kill him because the killing intent he let out wasn't a joke. looking at the gang, s.h.i.+vered and gasped like fish out from the tank, Old Lee and the other sighed, who let them provoked such a monster like Naruto, from here and onward they forbid them self for talk bad about ramen in front of Naruto, fearing for his wrath. Finally, after a good long time, the gang managed to recover their bearing, but they unable to help but felt fear toward Naruto, especially Chen Feng who's about to die.

"b.a.s.t.a.r.d! How dare you hurt me, you guys also useless b.a.s.t.a.r.d! Didn't even help me at all! Just wait for it, Naruto! I'll make you pay what you just did to me!"

Cheng Feng said while looking very angry but running away nevertheless, his gang followed his tail.

Old Lee still let out cold sweat, asked Naruto : "Naruto are you ok? I didn't know you are so strong! Did you study martial arts before?"

"Yes, I'm fine, thank you, and no I'm not, I didn't know any martial arts" Naruto didn't say much. He still feeling angry toward Chen Feng who incited his wrath by insulting ramen.

Old Lee did not press further seeing that Naruto's face still annoyed, and he started worrying: "Naruto, the situation looks like become worst, after all, you just trying to kill Chen Feng, he'll call his daddy, Chen Dehai to come! What will you do? He's an important person to Ximeng (West-side Meng) group, one of the two biggest groups in the west! n.o.body dares to annoy him in this area!"

'Ximeng, Qingmeng or whatever group eh? I don't care, so long they dont't force my hand to act, they should be glad that they can still exist...' Naruto coldly thought, before smiling to old Lee: "You hungry? I treat you one bowl."

Old Lee gazed at Naruto's indifferent appearance and could only worry for him. Listening to Naruto's offer he did feel little hungry then nodded to Naruto. After a slight rest, they started to be busy with work and business.

A few moments later, a police car arrived from afar. A police officer wearing a white s.h.i.+rt and two policemen got out and walked to Naruto with a serious face.

The police officer coldly asked: "Are you Naruto?"
