NOVEL WEB Chapter 120: Seize the Opportunity!
The next morning, it was well into the morning when Nangong Qingcheng and the girls finally got up. Last night, Chu Feifei had kept them playing until late into the night, with all sorts of "self-touching" that made Jiang Feng's head spin.
After lunch, Jiang Feng sent them back to school.
On the way, Zhang Qinyao claimed she needed to go home and got off the car midway.
In reality, she wanted to call Zhou Zikun to explain what happened yesterday. From last night until now, she had been with Chu Feifei, and didn't have a chance to get in touch. It's time to show some concern as a "mole".
However, no matter how many times she called, Zhou Zikun didn't pick up.
"Could it be that Young Master Kun is mad at me?" Zhang Qinyao felt an inexplicable anxiety. The reason was that she had brought Zhou Zikun and Han Lengxuan to the beach to find Nangong Qingcheng yesterday, which led to what happened later.
"I hope Young Master Kun doesn't wrongly blame me; otherwise, all my efforts would be in vain..." Zhang Qinyao thought angrily, and involuntarily thought of Jiang Feng, adding a bit of resentment!
...
At the back gate of Binhai University, before parting ways, Nangong Qingcheng gave Jiang Feng another "task," which was to quickly find a suitable apartment off-campus. She no longer wanted to stay in the dormitory and needed a place that could also accommodate company work.
Unexpectedly, after hearing about it, Chu Feifei insisted on moving out with her too, claiming she had been thinking about it for a long time since the dormitory wasn't suitable for live streaming. To avoid appearing too thick-skinned, she even mentioned Liu Shiyuan.
This put Jiang Feng in an awkward position. If Chu Feifei and Liu Shiyuan got involved, what would he do?
Fortunately, Chu Feifei excitedly suggested to Nangong Qingcheng and Liu Shiyuan, "Qingcheng, Shiyuan, why not let the uncle live with us too? The environment in the security room at the warehouse is too poor, and the camp bed is so small it's uncomfortable to sleep on. What do you think?"
After proposing, she looked at the expressions of the two girls and saw that they were staring at her strangely.
Even Bai Zhiqing, who was standing aside, looked at her meaningfully.
For Liu Shiyuan, she actually didn't mind living with Jiang Feng because she understood him well, and after spending the night collecting shells with her at the beach, her fondness for him grew.
Nangong Qingcheng was more speechless, thinking that if this had to be said, she should have been the one to say it. How could Chu Feifei have brought it up first?
In fact, Nangong Qingcheng had long sensed that the way Chu Feifei looked at Jiang Feng was odd. She was already beginning to regret it and thought it might have been better to make her relationship with Jiang Feng public.
"Uh, don't misunderstand, I just think it's not safe for the three of us girls to live together. The uncle is skilled and can protect us!"
Seeing the two girls' silence, Chu Feifei also realized she had been too forward, quickly explaining.
But the more she explained, the more she seemed guilty. Her tender face flushed red, and after stealing a glance at Jiang Feng, she said, "We can find a bigger house, with two floors. This way, the uncle could stay on the first floor and we on the second, reducing a lot of inconveniences..."
"Also good." Nangong Qingcheng thought for a moment, and this seems workable. Living separately, with Jiang Feng downstairs, could avoid suspicion, and indeed contribute to everyone's protection.
"Jiang Feng, find a place according to Feifei's requirements, try to find something spacious, negotiate the rent if possible, and then report to me for reimbursement." In front of "outsiders," Nangong Qingcheng had to maintain the appearance of a leader-subordinate relationship with Jiang Feng and said.
"Got it." Jiang Feng nodded, dropped them off, and drove away together with the thoughtful Bai Zhiqing.
...
North City Gold Noble Health Club, Room 999.
Mr. Scar, dressed in sleepwear, sat on a large sofa, smoking a Changbai Mountain cigarette rich with Northeast characteristics. Two long-haired beauties in pink bathrobes kneeled beside him, softly massaging his legs, relieving his muscles and fatigue. Mr. Scar occasionally blew out smoke rings, his face full of royal enjoyment.
Standing respectfully nearby was a square-faced, thick-browed middle-aged big man, his trusted right-hand man, Ah Bin.
In every Black Gold Empire, there's always a need for a consultant or strategist role, such as Zhuge Yuheng of the Chu Group, who has been the right-hand man and brain of Chu Renxiong.
This pyramid-style management model was introduced from abroad, where highly esteemed strategist advisors generally only accept leadership from one person, the head of the empire, as this setting prevents a second person from being present, ensuring more safety.
In Mr. Scar's forces, the only person he trusted was Ah Bin!
Compared to Zhuge Yuheng, Ah Bin lacked some strategic insight, considering Mr. Scar himself was of a cunning nature and didn't need Ah Bin's advice. However, Ah Bin excelled in combat power, surpassing Zhuge Yuheng, and was indeed the number one expert under Mr. Scar, possessing unfathomable combat prowess.
"What do you think about Han Shiliang's matter?" Mr. Scar took another drag on his Changbai Mountain cigarette, asking calmly.
"I've heard that the young lady rejected him and explicitly stated that she does not agree with your cooperation with the Han Family." Ah Bin responded respectfully.
"I'm not asking about my sister's attitude; she doesn't represent me." Mr. Scar said expressionlessly.
In fact, last night Mu Yanluo explained everything to Mr. Scar over the phone after returning home. Afterward, Han Shiliang managed to get Mr. Scar's direct contact and explained the reasons, making Mr. Scar quite aware of the situation now.
"I think we can cooperate." Ah Bin said, "Firstly, the Han Family is the third-ranking wealthy family in Binhai, and Han Shilong's personal assets rank first in South City. With abundant financial resources and extensive connections, he has an overall capacity not inferior to Chu Renxiong! Collaborating with them would enhance our ties. And cooperation won't be limited to just this issue—people like us, Han Shiliang has underestimated us. Once he's tied to us, he won't be able to get rid of us, becoming a combined interest community. It's only beneficial with no disadvantages for us."
"I also think Han Shiliang's stupidity lies there, keep going." Mr. Scar sneered.
"Secondly, Chu Renxiong had someone strangle your woman, and the entire Binhai Underworld has been waiting to see your reaction. You've endured for so long, and here's a chance to ally with the Han Family to surpass Chu Renxiong in scale. Such an opportunity shouldn't be missed." Ah Bin added.
"Well said, that's exactly what I was thinking! A small, barely-skilled security guard means nothing to me; my real thorn is Chu Renxiong! I've said it before, if I don't avenge this, I won't be human! Tell Han Shiliang that we agree to cooperate from our side, leaving all arrangements to him, and as long as he finds a way to get that security guard into North City, I guarantee he won't leave—of course, there's a prerequisite, Chu Renxiong's daughter must come and offer herself as well!" Mr. Scar said with a sinister grin!
