Bai Huanyu wasn't too surprised. After all, if Xiao Feng were so easy to deal with, his son-in-law wouldn't have fallen.
The sa goes for the Shen Group.
If it weren't for the young man in front of him, they might still be thriving, maneuvering between powers, and competing with the Chang Family.
"Mr. Bai, aren't you going to answer my previous question?" Xiao Feng pressed on.
Bai Huanyu chuckled and said, "Actually, it's the sa for anything; everyone must bear the consequences themselves, be it self-inflicted or otherwise. It's rely a matter of winning or losing."
As soon as he finished speaking, a servant brought over so tea.
"Please sit, Mr. Xiao." Bai Huanyu gestured for him to sit.
Xiao Feng sat down calmly and said, "I'm here today to verify sothing."
"Go ahead," Bai Huanyu replied with a smile.
"You must be aware of Song Keren being suspended, right?"
Upon hearing this, Bai Huanyu's expression changed, and he put down the teacup he had raised, saying sullenly, "Are you suspecting it was my doing?"
"Miao Youmin fell in part because of Song Keren, didn't he? You do have a motive." Xiao Feng replied slowly as he lifted the cover of the teacup.
Zheng Wei imdiately retorted angrily, "Mr. Xiao, we're all adults here. Don't talk without evidence."
"We're all adults. Think before you speak." Xiao Feng countered sarcastically, "If I had evidence, would I need to make this trip?"
"You!" Zheng Wei was infuriated but didn't say anything further when he saw Bai Huanyu raise his hand, stopping him from continuing.
"If Mr. Xiao ca to find answers from , I can tell you clearly, I'm not that foolish." Bai Huanyu said calmly, "The backing behind Song Keren is too much for to handle; that's reason enough."
Xiao Feng shook his head and laughed, "The Bai Family can't handle it, but others can. If two parties join hands for a common goal, is that not possible?"
"It's possible, but I haven't partnered with anyone." Bai Huanyu said angrily.
Xiao Feng squinted his eyes, "At your age, Mr. Bai, you don't even blush when lying. Haven't partnered with anyone?
Then how co I've heard that you've been busy making connections recently, preparing to do in?"
Bai Huanyu snorted coldly, "If Mr. Xiao says that, then I can only tell you, go to whoever told you that.
I, Bai Huanyu, have the courage to act openly, and never do things behind the scenes..."
"Pfft!"
Xiao Feng couldn't hold it in and spurted tea out of his mouth: "Cough cough cough cough... Sorry, I couldn't hold it in, please continue."
Bai Huanyu's face turned black, feeling at a loss for words.
Zheng Wei's eyes were filled with a murderous intent, desperately wanting to teach this arrogant guy a lesson right then and there.
A mont later, Xiao Feng pulled out a tissue and slowly wiped the corners of his mouth, saying, "One last question... what about Yu Xiuzhi?"
The latter half of his question ca quickly, and he didn't ask anything like "Have you seen Yu Xiuzhi?" but directly asked about Yu Xiuzhi's situation.
Although they both sounded like questions, their anings were entirely different.
Bai Huanyu's face turned completely dark.
He knew exactly who Yu Xiuzhi was; she was his son-in-law Miao Youmin's mistress, and a disgrace to the Bai Family.
Now being brought up by Xiao Feng, naturally, it didn't make him look any better.
"I don't know what Yu Xiuzhi is up to now, but if she's still alive, I hope she dies. If she's already dead, then I'll throw a feast to celebrate this happy occasion."
Saying this, Bai Huanyu asked back, "Is Yu Xiuzhi dead?"
"So, Mr. Bai didn't have her captured and tortured?" Xiao Feng asked back in the sa manner.
"I don't understand what you're saying!" Bai Huanyu suddenly stood up, looking like he might leave at any mont.
"Don't be so agitated, we're just having a casual chat." Xiao Feng chuckled, "Since you don't know, I'll be on my way."
With that said, he stood up decisively and made his way to the exit.
However, just as he was passing by Zheng Wei, he saw the latter stretch out a leg, trying to trip him.
Xiao Feng chuckled internally, here cos the ironhead kid again.
"Bang!" Their legs collided.
"Hiss..." Zheng Wei's expression twisted in pain as he took a sharp breath.
Previously, he even thought about how he could apologize to Xiao Feng, but he never expected this outco.
anwhile, Xiao Feng complained, "I told you, no need to see off. Why so enthusiastic? Forgot to ntion, I've got a steel plate in my pant leg, did it hurt?"
Zheng Wei closed his eyes, took a deep breath, and gritted out, "Mr. Xiao, you're really cautious."
Xiao Feng looked troubled, spreading his hands, "Can't help it. Like I said before, I'm like monk Tang's at right now.
All sorts of monsters and demons, whether human or non-human entities, all want a piece of . Without so defense, I would have been devoured long ago."
Zheng Wei was so angry that his breathing grew heavy, "monsters and demons, whether human or non-human entities," clearly insulting himself, it was hard to swallow this.
"I heard Mr. Xiao has so skills. I practiced a few moves in my younger days, want to give it a try?" Zheng Wei challenged.
Xiao Feng imdiately declined, "No."
"Afraid to lose to ?"
"Provocation won't work, mainly because at your age, if I win, others will say I lack honor for bullying the elderly.
If I lose, they'll say I'm incompetent for losing to an old fossil.
No matter what, it's not a good look, so I won't do it!"
At this ti, Bai Huanyu walked over, suppressing his anger, "Mr. Xiao, if you want to refuse, just say it outright. There's no need to insult others."
Xiao Feng sneered internally, seems like this old thing not only lies without blushing but also holds a double standard.
Earlier, when Zheng Wei intentionally stretched his leg to trip him, the old thing pretended not to see, yet now jumps in to criticize. Truly shaless!
In that case, there's no need for politeness anymore.
"It's not impossible to compete; let's find a secluded place, win or lose on our own abilities, as long as no one else knows." Xiao Feng said calmly.
Zheng Wei's eyes lit up, "Great! It's settled then!"
With that, he headed outside first.
Xiao Feng and Bai Huanyu followed.
Their expressions all seed calm as usual, but everyone they passed felt a heavy atmosphere, sothing was amiss.
Soon, Zheng Wei led them to a secluded courtyard.
The place was quite desolate, the buildings appeared dilapidated, and weeds grew through cracks in the walls, resembling rural constructions from the last century.
Xiao Feng frowned, constantly surrounded by the moldy sll, feeling discomfort, and couldn't understand.
Why did the Bai Family keep such a house?
It's no wonder Xiao Feng was puzzled, maintaining such a courtyard was like having a big splotch of dog poop on the Golden Threaded Jade Robe, far too noticeable.
