"Dad, that's how things went. That bastard was so outrageous. You have to help get back at him."
In the study room of the He Family villa located in the northern Jiangcheng City District, He Baodan gritted his teeth as he recounted his experience after encountering Xiao Feng.
Behind the desk in the study, a middle-aged man with handso features and slicked-back hair slowly said, "No rush. You eat an elephant one bite at a ti, and you walk a mile one step at a ti.
Revenge is a dish best served cold, even if it's ten years, there's no rush for twenty."
After hearing this, He Baodan felt even more indignant, "So you're saying, I'll have to wait twenty years to get even?"
"I'm just using a taphor. You need to know, to accomplish great things, you must learn to endure," He Qizheng raised his voice, "The word 'endure' has a knife over your heart, being able to endure makes you a hero."
He Baodan remained unmoved, "I don't want to be a hero, I just want to vent this anger.
And, I was just talking about Xiao Feng. The most infuriating is Ding Ming, a lot of what happened is mostly because of him!"
Ding Ming was the bodyguard who got KO'ed by Xiao Feng with two punches.
He Baodan's tone was agitated, "He rushed to attack without my permission twice, and later, Xiao Feng extorted a million from , that can't be unrelated to him."
However, that really wrongs Ding Ming.
Even without his provocation, He Baodan wouldn't have been able to escape paying the million.
He Qizheng, seemingly a bit impatient, waved his hand, "Go rest for now. It's just a million, I'll transfer two million to your account later, is that enough?"
"Well... okay." He Baodan readily agreed.
In the study, He Qizheng picked up the book next to him again, but found he couldn't concentrate on it.
Moreover, the reason he couldn't focus didn't seem to be his son's complaining, but a feeling that sothing was about to happen.
In fact, not only did He Baodan personally approach Xiao Feng to invite him to join the comrcial alliance, but the bodyguard Ding Ming accompanying him and provoking first was also orchestrated by He Qizheng.
As for why...
"Knock, knock, knock!"
Three knocks on the window were heard.
He Qizheng was startled and quickly called out, "Who is it?!"
However, after waiting for a long ti, there was no response.
This made He Qizheng even more uneasy, he stealthily approached the door.
After all, knocking on doors is common in daily life, but knocking on windows is rare.
Especially since his study was on the second floor, and the window being knocked on was definitely not a good sign.
Just as his hand was about to touch the doorknob, a voice ca from outside the window, "If you don't want to die, open the window."
He Qizheng's body trembled, cold sweat forming on his forehead.
With the thought "if it's ant to be, you can't avoid it," he gritted his teeth and quickly moved to the window, unlocking it.
"Clatter!"
The window opened, and a figure entered the room.
Seeing the person's face clearly, He Qizheng was instantly shocked, "Xiao, Xiao Feng?"
Xiao Feng raised an eyebrow and asked with a grin, "Surprised? Or not?"
"..." He Qizheng.
Surprised? More like scared to death, right?
But it was indeed unexpected.
Taking a few deep breaths, He Qizheng forced himself to calm down and asked, "What do you want with ?"
"Guess," Xiao Feng sat on the sofa, crossing his legs on the coffee table like a debtor.
He Qizheng understood Xiao Feng's intentions but still feigned ignorance, saying, "If it's about my son, I'm here to apologize on his behalf."
"Should I praise your intelligence or your stupidity?" Xiao Feng said with a smirk, "Setting everything else aside, having your son invite , was it just to give money?"
"Uh… I thought sending him personally would better show our sincerity."
"Seems like you're dead set on treating like a fool."
He Qizheng felt a pang of guilt and was about to explain when the phone on the table rang.
Xiao Feng naturally walked over and glanced at the screen's note, surprised, "Bai Huanyu?"
Could it be that Bai Huanyu joined the comrcial alliance?
Just as he was thinking, he saw He Qizheng pick up the phone and ask, "Should I put it on speaker?"
"No need, with Bai Huanyu's suspicious nature, if it's on speaker, who knows if he'll tell the truth." Xiao Feng declined.
But before He Qizheng could breathe a sigh of relief, Xiao Feng pulled out a pair of earphones, put one in, and handed the other to He Qizheng.
He Qizheng was stunned, thinking to himself that the other must have done this many tis before, otherwise, why carry the "tools" around?
With no choice, he plugged in the earphones and answered the call.
He heard Bai Huanyu say, "Mr. He, thank you for helping, I've transferred the money to your account, please check it."
"You…" He Qizheng felt his palm sweating, glanced at Xiao Feng beside him, wiped his hand on his pant leg, and asked, "Why did you want my son to invite Xiao Feng personally?"
"Nothing much, just to divert his attention." Bai Huanyu answered offhandedly, an answer lacking in sincerity.
The call ended quickly, Xiao Feng removed the earphones, full of doubt.
He Baodan inviting him to join the comrcial alliance was at Bai Huanyu's behest... to be more precise, driven by interests.
And the purpose was to divert his attention?
Why divert his attention?
Xiao Feng imdiately tried to recall if he had overlooked anything important, but seeing the nervous He Qizheng, he decided to temporarily put this thought aside.
"You handled that quite well." Xiao Feng said with a satisfied smile.
This evaluation wasn't ant to be sarcastic.
Because if it weren't for that question earlier, there would have been no answer from Bai Huanyu, even if it felt like there was none.
He Qizheng wasn't sure how to respond, because "handled well" was sothing he had only heard in school. He couldn't really say "Thank you, teacher," could he?
However, Xiao Feng didn't expect a response and quickly changed the topic, asking, "How much did Bai Huanyu give you?"
"Five, five million." He Qizheng took out his phone, "If you don't believe , I can show you the ssage."
Most people at this point would let it go.
But Xiao Feng obviously can't be judged by common sense. Hearing this, he nodded, "Let's have a look."
He Qizheng's face turned dark, he retrieved the transaction ssage and showed it to Xiao Feng.
After looking, Xiao Feng was quite upset.
What the hell!
How can everyone make money off of , yet it's so hard for to make money?
This is really unfair!
Where is the justice, where is the justice?!
