"In the vast city of Binhai, do you think there could be anyone other than a master-level expert who could rescue a woman from thirty cold-blooded drug dealers? And Jiang Feng, he has a good personal connection with my female action officer. He's the only one I can think of!" Mu Jianmin asserted.
"Could it be a coincidence? As far as I know, Jiang isn't the only master-level expert in Binhai City!" Pan Haoting hesitated.
"I've ruled out all the others; none of them were present at the scene, and they have no connection with Situ Yan!"
Pan Haoting felt a storm surging in his heart. He couldn't imagine that if it was truly Jiang Feng, how could he have single-handedly broken into a warehouse and rescued a woman from a bunch of drug dealers. To what extent must he defy the odds? At least with Pan Haoting's life experience, he couldn't figure it out!
Especially since the other party was only in his early twenties!
A young fierce tiger, a vigorous true dragon!
"Old Mu, are you certain it was Jiang Feng who did it?" Pan Haoting asked, trying to calm himself.
"I trust my intuition. What I'm most curious about is how he rescued Situ Yan and left so calmly. And those drug dealers? Afterward, they disappeared as if they evaporated from the world; no trace of them alive or dead, and we couldn't find them despite searching the entire city!"
"Then why haven't you summoned Jiang Feng for questioning?"
"Without evidence, what would I summon him for? I don't dare to recklessly approach soone like him without proper cause," Mu Jianmin was speechless at Pan Haoting's suggestion. "Although I've tried to probe Situ Yan these past few days, she's kept her mouth shut as if deliberately protecting Jiang Feng, so I couldn't ask more."
"Old Mu..."
"Alright, Old Pan, I've told you enough, just know that Jiang Feng is soone who deserves our attention. Though he hides in the city, he possesses great wisdom and potential. Unless absolutely necessary, don't provoke him, and even if absolutely necessary, do not provoke him, or you won't be able to bear the consequences."
With that, Mu Jianmin hung up the phone.
Pan Haoting sat alone in his office chair, still pondering the aning in Mu Jianmin's words: Even soone of Mu Jianmin's status, the head of the action departnt's sub-division, would treat Jiang Feng with such respect; how could he not?
"A terrifying young man indeed..."
Pan Haoting took a deep breath and decided to heed Mu Jianmin's advice. No matter what, he must not make an enemy of Jiang Feng, not even so much as offend him, for that would spell danger!
Once he cald his mind, he suddenly rembered that he hadn't returned Chu Renxiong's call, so he imdiately dialed back: "Hello, President Chu, I was in a eting just now and couldn't answer. What can I do for you?"
"President Pan, I'll get straight to the point, your son is in trouble! I'll send you a number, call it back quickly, don't keep them waiting." With that, Chu Renxiong sent over a number via text ssage.
"President Chu, what trouble has my incompetent son gotten into this ti? Whose number is this?" Pan Haoting asked in shock.
"You should ask for yourself. Your son has provoked Jiang Feng, yes, the one working as a security guard! And from what Jiang Feng implies, your son seems to have threatened his friend. You better hurry and take a stand; the consequences will be hard to predict if you're too late. This is a friendly reminder from ," Chu Renxiong's tone carried a hint of sympathy, and he hung up the phone.
Pan Haoting was utterly dumbfounded!
He had just concluded a call with Mu Jianmin, determined not to provoke Jiang Feng, and now his son had dared to challenge the powerful figure recklessly?
This was basically a death wish!
Pan Haoting, enraged, dialed the number imdiately, but due to his agitation, he entered it wrong three tis in a row.
...
At the roadside stall.
Watching the call to Jiang Feng go unanswered for so long, Gao Yang and the others transitioned from nervous expressions to cold smiles.
After all this ti, the Jiang guy was just bluffing, so what if he called Chu Renxiong? As long as Pan Haoting didn't want to give face, Chu Renxiong couldn't force it.
"Bastard, let's see how long you can keep this act up!" Gao Yang thought with contempt.
anwhile, Pan Sheng's expression remained grim, as if awaiting judgnt!
At this mont, Jiang Feng's phone finally rang. He picked it up and saw an unfamiliar number, but Pan Sheng, seeing the digits, suddenly beca tense!
Because he recognized it as his father Pan Haoting's number!
"Hello." Jiang Feng answered indifferently.
"Mr. Jiang, hello, this is Pan Haoting, we've t at the Chu Family bathhouse." On the other end, Pan Haoting was very polite, almost reverent.
"Hmm." Jiang Feng remained expressionless, not ntioning the interdiary Chu Renxiong, and asked directly, "Have you heard?"
"Yes, Mr. Jiang, may I ask what my son has done to offend you? Whatever it is, I will severely punish him!" Pan Haoting didn't question who was at fault, responding sharply.
"Your son is sothing," Jiang Feng glanced at Pan Sheng, sneering, "He took a liking to a friend of mine and planned to use her weaknesses against her. Knowing her father has uremia, he cut off their dicine, forcing her to compromise and beco his girlfriend--is this how you raised your son?"
"What? Is that true?" On the other end, Pan Haoting heard the hostility in Jiang Feng's tone but was more shocked by his son's deplorable actions, and he furiously stated, "Mr. Jiang, if this is true, rest assured, I will punish him severely and give you a satisfactory explanation! Now, could you please hand the phone to my son so I can speak with him?"
Jiang Feng didn't hand the phone to Pan Sheng but switched it to speaker mode.
"You bastard, is what Mr. Jiang just said true?" Pan Haoting shouted furiously at Pan Sheng, almost wanting his spittle to spray through the phone.
Pan Sheng's face looked grim, "Dad, I..."
"I asked if it's true?" Pan Haoting said through gritted teeth.
"Not entirely, I only told the pharmacy in that area selling our family's drugs to reduce supply because our dicine is in high demand, and we should seize the opportunity to raise market prices. It wasn't targeted at anyone..."
"Nonsense! Are you trying to dodge the issue with ? You beast, how did I raise such a disgrace of a son? Right now, you must apologize sincerely to Mr. Jiang and his friend until they are satisfied!!" Pan Haoting yelled furiously and ordered.
"Dad!" Pan Sheng felt humiliated. This wasn't like last ti at a secluded beach; this was on a busy street with more and more people gathering around, and if he bowed to Jiang Feng here, how could he ever hold his head up again?
Not to ntion, if he admitted his mistake to Liu Shiyuan, he'd never have the chance to win over this pure and beautiful woman ever again!
"Rascal, are you refusing to listen? Do you want to co over and break your legs to kneel before Mr. Jiang?" Pan Haoting saw Pan Sheng's hesitation and beca even more furious, shouting out loud, his tone stunning everyone present!
