Fo Zhu was stunned, then overjoyed. He had thought Qin Feng would refuse his proposal, but unexpectedly he agreed. As long as Qin Feng agreed, everything would be easy.
“However, how do you plan to help me?” Qin Feng asked.
“I can provide you with all intelligence about Li Feng,” Fo Zhu nodded and replied.
“Intelligence? Fo Zhu, our Qin family’s intelligence network is no worse than your National Security Bureau’s, especially in Tianhai City. Do you think I lack such intelligence?” Qin Feng sneered. Providing intelligence to deal with Li Feng, was this not the same as him using Li Wu?
Moreover, dealing with the current Li Feng was not easy. The death of that post-heaven seventh-layer expert a few days ago was vivid in his mind. Even with Elder Xu by his side, he was wary of Li Feng. You, Fo Zhu, only want to provide intelligence and expect me to deal with him. Where in the world is such a good deal?
“Then what does Young Master Feng want?” Fo Zhu frowned. Only now did he remember that Qin Feng was the eldest son of the Qin family, one of the eight top families. Their intelligence network was no inferior to the National Security Bureau.
“I need you to take action personally,” Qin Feng stared at Fo Zhu and said.
“Me?” Fo Zhu shook his head vigorously. The reason he used Qin Feng against Li Feng was not to kill him, but to force Li Feng to join the National Security Bureau. If he acted personally, it might backfire.
“What, you are unwilling?” Qin Feng sneered. This Fo Zhu indeed had ill intentions. He dared not act personally yet talked about help. Did he think Qin Feng was a fool?
“Young Master Feng, my identity is special. I cannot act personally, but I can find someone to help you. Moreover, I can assist you in other ways,” Fo Zhu thought and said. He felt that to use Qin Feng, he had to pay some price.
Qin Feng’s eyes flickered. “This is not the place to talk. If you have time, you can come to my place for tea.”
Fo Zhu nodded. To deal with Li Feng, one could not rush. Dealing with him now was clearly impossible. He had plenty of time to play with Li Feng.
On the other side, Zhu Yuanyang and Ying Suyan sat together. Both were direct descendants of top families, proud daughters of heaven, and found common topics when sitting together.
As they chatted, the topic turned to Li Feng. Ying Suyan glanced at Zhu Yuanyang and said, “I heard my sister was slapped by Li Feng. Is this true?”
Ying Suyan was one year older than Zhu Yuanyang.
“It did happen,” Zhu Yuanyang’s face stiffened. This was her greatest humiliation. Unfortunately, she could not take revenge now. Not only that, she had to ease relations with Li Feng and prevent him from fully aligning with Song Zhiyuan.
“Sister Zhu, is this big bad guy Li Feng really that bad?” Jin Xiaoya beside them asked curiously.
“Big bad guy? Yes, he is a big bad guy. Xiaoya, stay far away from such big bad guys in the future,” Zhu Yuanyang smiled and said.
“Does sister not plan to retaliate?” Ying Suyan continued asking.
“Retaliate?” Zhu Yuanyang turned to Ying Suyan and asked, “What does sister think I should do to retaliate?”
“Naturally, teach him a lesson, otherwise Li Feng will think us women are easy to bully,” Ying Suyan said resentfully.
Zhu Yuanyang was stunned. From Ying Suyan’s earlier words, she suspected her motives. For this eldest miss of the Ying family, renowned among the eight top families for beauty and wisdom, Zhu Yuanyang was extremely cautious when speaking.
But now, she felt Ying Suyan’s reaction was too strong. Was there some reason she did not know?
“Yes, he should be taught a lesson. This big bad guy Li Feng called Sister Ying an idiot. He deserves it,” Jin Xiaoya clenched her fist and said resentfully.
Zhu Yuanyang was stunned. Li Feng called Ying Suyan an idiot? But thinking of Li Feng’s personality, it was not impossible.
However, she was curious why Li Feng called Ying Suyan an idiot. Ying Suyan did not seem like an idiot woman.
“Does sister also want to teach Li Feng a lesson?” Zhu Yuanyang asked.
“I have that intention, but this is not Guanzhong after all. I am alone in Tianhai City, so teaching Li Feng a lesson is somewhat beyond my power,” Ying Suyan sighed.
“Then we can only wait. When Li Feng goes to Guanzhong, sister can teach him then,” Zhu Yuanyang said faintly. How could she not understand Ying Suyan’s meaning? She simply wanted her to act. But now, she had no intention of dealing with Li Feng. This trip to Tianhai City was mainly for the Nine Dragon Jade. Before that, she did not want complications.
Moreover, Li Feng was not easy to deal with. If the attack failed, she might be countered by Li Feng instead.
Ying Suyan looked at Zhu Yuanyang in surprise. She did not understand how Zhu Yuanyang could be so tolerant. Was this Zhu Yuanyang? Too tolerant. After being slapped by Li Feng, did she not want to teach him a lesson?
Ying Suyan felt Zhu Yuanyang was not the type to swallow humiliation. The only possibility was some special reason. She had planned to join Zhu Yuanyang to give Li Feng a lesson, but now the plan needed adjustment.
“Why is sister looking at me?” Zhu Yuanyang asked knowingly.
“I think sister’s suggestion is good,” Ying Suyan said, her eyes flickering, thinking something.
“…Now, I announce that our company’s Intelligent One will be launched today,” Hu Yuanyuan said excitedly.
Intelligent One was Fengyuan Group’s first new product, and not the last, but no one could know the excitement in Hu Yuanyuan’s heart. With Intelligent One, Fengyuan Group would stand at the pinnacle of the world.
“President Hu, I have a question,” a journalist stood up and said.
“Please ask,” Hu Yuanyuan nodded with a smile.
“After Intelligent One is launched, how does your company plan to price it and sell it?”
“Regarding this, our company has a detailed plan,” Hu Yuanyuan signalled to Xu Qing, who distributed prepared materials to the journalists.
“President Hu, I have a question. Is the person beside you Vice President Li Feng of Fengyuan Group?” At that moment, another journalist stood up and asked.
“Yes.”
“Then may I ask Vice President Li a few questions?” the journalist said.
“What do you want to ask?” Li Feng’s eyes flickered. This journalist was the one who had shown disdain earlier. He was wary of such people.
“Vice President Li, I heard you often use company rules to take advantage of female subordinates. Is this true?” the journalist sneered.
“I do not know where you heard such rumours. This is impossible,” Li Feng said coldly. Taking advantage of female subordinates? From this question, the journalist came with ill intent.
“Whether it is a rumour, we need to ask your assistant Xu,” the journalist sneered, turning to Xu Qing. “Assistant Xu, is there any improper relationship between you and Vice President Li?”
Li Feng felt a chill. The journalist targeted him and Xu Qing. He had a bad premonition.
If there was no relationship between him and Xu Qing, he would not worry, but there was a slight connection.
“This journalist, I do not understand your meaning. My relationship with Vice President Li is just boss and employee,” Xu Qing’s eyes flashed with panic, but she quickly regained composure.
“Is that so? As far as I know, Assistant Xu, you often go out with your Vice President Li, checking into hotels,” the journalist sneered.
“This journalist, you can eat randomly, but you cannot speak randomly,” Li Feng said coldly.
“Vice President Li, are you feeling guilty?” the journalist sneered, taking out photos. “These are photos of you and Assistant Xu entering the Holiday Hotel yesterday. Were you not checking in?”
Li Feng’s pupils contracted. He recognised them as photos taken yesterday when he and Xu Qing went to the Holiday Hotel. At this moment, he understood his earlier premonition. The journalist came prepared.
But who took the photos? The journalist?
Li Feng shook his head. Yesterday’s trip to the Holiday Hotel was spontaneous. Even the most capable journalists could not have known in advance.
Hu Yuanyuan’s expression changed. Yesterday, Xu Qing asked for leave saying she was attending a class reunion, but how was she with Li Feng? Did Xu Qing lie to go on a date with him?
When did they get together? Xu Qing and Li Feng had known each other for just over a month, and Li Feng rarely came to the company. Their development was too fast.
At this moment, Hu Yuanyuan’s thoughts were complex. One was her beloved man, the other her trusted aide. Them together put her in a difficult position. In front of so many journalists, she felt she was losing face completely.
“What can one photo prove?” Li Feng sneered.
“One photo naturally proves nothing, but I have a witness,” the journalist said, as if expecting Li Feng’s response.
“A witness?” Li Feng smiled. He and Xu Qing had at most an ambiguous relationship. What witness? This was fabricated. He did not believe the journalist could produce one, but causing trouble at this press conference was not simple. Today would be troublesome.
“Of course,” the journalist said confidently. “If there was no witness, how would I speak nonsense here.”
“Oh, I am very curious. Who is your witness?” Li Feng’s eyes flickered and asked.
“It is me.” At that moment, the conference centre door opened. A young man walked in, looked at the journalists, and said, “I am the witness. I can prove Li Feng took advantage of Xu Qing.”
