"What's going on?" Jiang Feng saw Heizi's crafty expression and asked curiously.
"Shi Guanlin from North City seems to have fallen last night! I heard he offended someone from our South City and got wiped out! This matter is being deliberately suppressed and not allowed to spread, but I still heard about it, and I know...it's likely related to you!" Heizi put away his playful expression and looked at Jiang Feng with deep admiration.
In Heizi's eyes, it was impressive enough that Jiang Feng single-handedly took down Mr. Scar and sent the Han Brothers to the operations department, but now he's even taken down Ship King Shi Guanlin. How much more badass can he get?
"Why do you think it was me?" Jiang Feng asked calmly.
"Pretend!" Heizi sneered, "Yesterday, Shi Guanlin came to South City in a big way, you think I didn't know? Moreover, I can guess who he came to find—throughout Binhai, Shi Guanlin had the best relationship with Mr. Scar, and now that Mr. Scar has been taken out, he naturally came to stand up for him. It's a pity he didn't realize how badass my brother is, who took him down the same night. I said my brother is the unbeatable Wuqu Star, the invincible Luu Fengxian!"
"Stop talking nonsense. Since you know about it, just keep it to yourself." Jiang Feng tugged at his mouth corner and said helplessly.
"Haha, so you're admitting it? How could I spread it? I'm just genuinely happy for myself, having the chance to meet such an exceptional brother in my life. It's frickin' awesome! I'm even planning to moonlight as an author, writing a book just about you, maybe I'll become a bestselling writer..."
This guy was getting more outrageous, but he was speaking the truth. As a security guard in a small company, being able to know Jiang Feng was indeed a blessing, destined for an extraordinary life following him and having some soup to drink.
...
At Binhai University, in the large classroom of the Business School.
Zhang Qinyao finally didn't have to sit alone forlornly but could sit with Nangong Qingcheng and Liu Shiyuan.
This gave her a real sense of rebirth and she cherished this hard-won sisterhood immensely.
And even now, the events that occurred last night at the Purple Gold Garden had not spread widely in the city.
This was because the situation last night was bound to result in a fatality, and Shi Guanlin had already turned his residence into a Forbidden Land in advance, even the official action departments couldn't get in.
Only people like Zhou Rongfa and Yan Chen had their ways, each bribing spies to get the first-hand information they wanted.
But like Heizi, Zhang Qinyao was one of the very few people in the know. At this moment, her admiration and fascination for Jiang Feng became absolutely irresistible!
Her heart fluttering, she was completely infatuated with Jiang Feng.
But she was also very aware of her own worth, not daring in this life to hope to become Jiang Feng's woman, but even if she could only be his lover or a female slave, she would be content!
While daydreaming here, suddenly, Liu Shiyuan, sitting beside her, received a phone call. After listening quietly for a moment, her face changed dramatically!
Then, Liu Shiyuan hung up the phone, no longer in the mood to attend class, appearing somewhat urgent and bewildered.
"Shiyuan, what's wrong?" Nangong Qingcheng, on the other side, also noticed Liu Shiyuan's loss of composure and asked.
"Qingcheng, I have an urgent matter and need to leave, can you help me ask the teacher for a leave of absence?" Liu Shiyuan said to Nangong Qingcheng, looking flustered.
"What's the matter?" Nangong Qingcheng asked immediately.
"Yes, Shiyuan, tell us. Maybe we can help." Zhang Qinyao also said sincerely.
Liu Shiyuan shook her head, "It's a family matter, you can't help. Qingcheng, please, I have to go!"
Speaking hastily, Liu Shiyuan got up and quietly ran out through the back door.
Leaving Nangong Qingcheng and Zhang Qinyao looking at each other in confusion!
...
In the security office, Jiang Feng received a call from Zhu Ge Yuheng. The Chu Family's high-level meeting had concluded, setting a target to formally and aggressively advance into North City!
The entire group was more unified than ever, fully supporting and endorsing Chu Feifei, reaching a peak!
After all, if Chu Feifei truly accomplishes what even Chu Renxiong hadn't completed during her tenure, she might even become a presence like West City Feng Yueji.
Jiang Feng wasn't surprised in the least; Zhu Ge Yuheng had last night already absorbed all 149 of Shi Guanlin's men, and with his intelligence and methods, he could soon seize all of Shi Guanlin's assets with thunderous momentum.
If the Chu Family truly consumes the Shi Family's assets, their wealth will more than double, making them the largest conglomerate in Binhai.
"You have my full support; if you encounter difficulties, just let me know."
Though he said this, Jiang Feng believed Zhu Ge Yuheng was fully capable and ambitious enough to pull off this feat; he was just reporting to the "Regent King" out of respect.
After hanging up, Jiang Feng barely had time to catch his breath before receiving another call from Nangong Qingcheng, who sounded urgent: "Jiang Feng, where are you? Go to the school gate quickly to find Shiyuan, she left alone."
"What happened?" Jiang Feng asked puzzled.
"I don't know either, she received a call and left before the class ended in a hurry. Qin Yao and I couldn't follow her conveniently; you should go check on her!" Nangong Qingcheng said urgently.
"Got it."
Jiang Feng put down his phone, instructed Heizi to watch over the company, and then quickly headed to Binhai University's back gate to wait for Liu Shiyuan to come out.
It was still not yet time for class to end, so there weren't many students leaving; Jiang Feng easily spotted Liu Shiyuan hurrying out.
"Brother Jiang, you...why are you here?" Liu Shiyuan was surprised to see Jiang Feng standing at the back gate, then immediately guessed that it was Nangong Qingcheng who called him.
"What's happened?" Jiang Feng frowned, looking at Liu Shiyuan, who clearly had cried, her beautiful eyes swollen like walnuts, her face full of panic.
"Nothing...just going to handle something. Brother Jiang, don't worry about me."
Although Liu Shiyuan was very touched by Jiang Feng's appearance, she also knew she had already troubled him enough and didn't want to burden him further.
"Are you still hiding things from me?" Jiang Feng pretended to be unhappy, "Quickly tell me what's going on!"
This demand instantly touched the soft spot in Liu Shiyuan's heart, and she couldn't hold back her tears: "Brother Jiang, I need to go back home for a bit; my parents have already returned, and I'm worried and want to see them!"
"Going back home?"
Why would she suddenly go back home?
Jiang Feng wasn't surprised that Liu Yunping, once paralyzed, could walk, since he had infused him with two strands of Devouring Sky Demon Qi. It was only natural for his legs to regain feeling.
But Liu Yunping's body was still very weak, and unless something really serious happened, he wouldn't endure a long journey back home.
"Something happened at home; my uncle ran away after racking up huge debts from loan sharks, leaving my grandparents alone. My dad was afraid the creditors would come today, so he took my mom back. I'm really worried for my grandparents and want to rush back," Liu Shiyuan said, her voice choked with emotion.
Seeing Liu Shiyuan's helpless expression, Jiang Feng immediately said, "Don't worry, where's your hometown, I'll go back with you!"
"Brother Jiang..."
"Listen to me, the sooner we go, the sooner we return, let's go!" Jiang Feng decisively said, leaving no room for argument!
