In a restaurant, Sun Xipeng was gloomily eating lunch, but his face, battered by Li Feng, hurt terribly with every movement of his mouth, despite treatment.
For Sun Xipeng, today was undoubtedly the unluckiest day. He had thought Li Feng’s arrest at Tian Shang Ren Jian would leave Hu Yuanyuan utterly disappointed, creating a rare opportunity to pursue her. He had meticulously prepared 9,999 roses, setting up a grand display at her company to win her over.
But not only did he fail to win Hu Yuanyuan’s affection, he was also humiliated by Li Feng. For Sun Xipeng, this was an unbearable disgrace.
Li Feng, and that wretched Hu Yuanyuan, one day I’ll make you pay.
A cold glint flashed in Sun Xipeng’s eyes.
“Isn’t this Young Master Sun, the great President Sun? When did you turn into a pig’s head?”
At that moment, a mocking voice came from nearby. Sun Xipeng turned to see a young man approaching.
“Who are you?”
Sun Xipeng coldly eyed the approaching youth.
“Who am I?” The young man smiled, ignoring Sun Xipeng’s angry glare, pulled out the chair opposite him, sat down, and then looked at him, saying, “Young Master Sun, who I am isn’t important. What matters is, I can help you solve your troubles.”
“Solve my troubles?” Sun Xipeng scoffed, but the laugh tugged at his wounds, nearly bringing tears to his eyes.
“Exactly, I came here today specifically to help you resolve your issues,” the young man replied earnestly.
Sun Xipeng sneered dismissively. Solve his troubles? Who did this guy think he was? With that thought, he ignored the youth, stood up, and turned to leave.
“Young Master Sun, we share a common enemy, Li Feng,” the young man said at that moment.
Sun Xipeng halted, turning to the youth, “What did you say?”
“We share a common enemy, Li Feng. Your current state, I assume, is because of him, right? Don’t you want to take revenge?” the young man said calmly.
“You want to deal with Li Feng?” Sun Xipeng asked gravely.
“Of course. Won’t you sit and talk, Young Master Sun?”
“Fine.”
Sun Xipeng hesitated only briefly before sitting down. Taking down Li Feng was something he dreamed of, but recalling Li Feng’s formidable skills—strong enough to overpower his hired ex-special forces bodyguards—he knew he couldn’t do it alone. Having help would be ideal.
“Now can you tell me who you are?” Sun Xipeng asked.
“Young Master Sun, who I am isn’t important. What matters is we discuss how to deal with Li Feng,” the young man shook his head.
“Hmph, aren’t you underestimating me a bit? You want to work together but won’t tell me who you are. Do you think this partnership makes sense?” Sun Xipeng snorted, displeased. Who was he, Sun Xipeng? A seasoned player in the business world. Though anger had clouded his judgment, he hadn’t completely lost his senses. He wouldn’t work with someone whose identity was unclear.
“Young Master Sun, when did I say we were partnering?” the young man shook his head, as if puzzled by his words.
“What do you mean? Are you playing me?” Sun Xipeng’s expression darkened, a cold glint in his eyes.
The young man shook his head, saying, “Young Master Sun, I’m here to help you deal with Li Feng, not to partner with you. Let’s be clear.”
“What’s that supposed to mean?” Sun Xipeng asked coldly.
“What does it mean? Want to know? I’ll tell you now, because you, Sun Xipeng, aren’t qualified to partner with us,” the young man said.
“What?” Sun Xipeng was furious, the blatant disdain in the young man’s eyes making him uncomfortable. He, Sun Xipeng, was a notable figure in Tianhai City. When had he ever been so disrespected?
“No need to get angry, Young Master Sun, it’s the truth,” the young man said calmly.
“If that’s the case, goodbye,” Sun Xipeng said, seething.
“Haha, Young Master Sun, don’t you want to get back at Li Feng? He didn’t just humiliate you, he stole your woman. Are you just going to swallow your pride? Haha, I must admire your patience,” the young man said nonchalantly, “Think about it, what’s Li Feng doing right now? He’s a normal man, with a beauty like Hu Yuanyuan, what do you think they’re up to? Probably all lovey-dovey.”
“Enough, shut up!” Sun Xipeng roared, his anger burning fiercely.
“What, can’t handle the truth, Young Master Sun?” the young man sneered, “But I suppose, with your inflated ego, you don’t care that the woman you love is with another man.”
Sun Xipeng clenched his fists, veins bulging, itching to rush up and beat the young man, but reason told him to stay calm.
Closing his eyes and taking a deep breath, Sun Xipeng said, “State your purpose. I don’t think you came just to mock me.”
“I’ve said it, I’m here to help you deal with Li Feng, because he’s our common enemy. You don’t need to know who I am, because it’s useless to you, and you’re not qualified to know. If you’re willing, we can sit and talk properly. If not, I won’t force you.”
The young man glanced at Sun Xipeng and said calmly, “I’m not looking down on you, Young Master Sun, but in your current state, you’re no match for Li Feng. Without our help, you’ll never teach him a lesson.”
“You guys?” Sun Xipeng’s frown deepened. The young man’s words clearly implied he wasn’t acting alone; there was a team behind him, one that seemed intent on targeting Li Feng.
Sun Xipeng found it odd. How did a loser like Li Feng make so many enemies? How had he offended these people? With years of business experience, Sun Xipeng had a keen eye. He hadn’t noticed earlier, but now, closely observing the young man, he detected an aura he’d only seen in one other person. Logically, someone like Li Feng shouldn’t have provoked so many.
But Sun Xipeng didn’t dwell on it. To him, the more enemies Li Feng had, the better. Since he couldn’t handle Li Feng alone, joining forces with others was fine.
“Indeed, us,” the young man nodded, saying, “Rest assured, Young Master Sun, we only want to deal with Li Feng. Hu Yuanyuan will be yours.”
“Alright, I agree to work with you,” Sun Xipeng said decisively. The chance to take down Li Feng and win Hu Yuanyuan was too good to pass up.
The young man nodded, satisfied, “Young Master Sun is indeed straightforward. Now, let me outline our plan…”
