"Miss Sakura."
Zheng Shan’s gaze first fell upon Yamada Sakura, and from the mont he laid eyes on her, he couldn’t remain composed within.
After all, Yamada Sakura was a ninja from Beihai Country, and more so, a disciple of the leading Miyamoto. Previously in Zheng Xi’s office, she was injured because of Zheng Xi, and the instigator was none other than Li Feng at her side.
When he had left the hospital to et Miyamoto at Shengshi Entertainnt, this Yamada Sakura was gritting her teeth, vowing to eliminate Li Feng. Yet now, she appeared beside Li Feng, looking very intimate with her arm linked in his.
This left Zheng Shan quite confused—how could Yamada Sakura be standing by Li Feng’s side?
Coercion?
That was unlikely. Yamada Sakura was a ninja; she was no ordinary woman.
"Mr. Zheng."
Yamada Sakura smiled at Zheng Shan, which only added to his confusion. Her deanor didn’t seem at all like soone who was being coerced.
Her expression didn’t seem forced at all, but rather quite natural.
But how could this be possible?
Zheng Shan didn’t say much to Yamada Sakura, keeping a bellyful of questions to himself, and turned his head to look at Li Feng.
"Chairman Li honored with your presence makes Mountain and Water Villa shine with added splendor."
"Heh, I was afraid Chairman Zheng wouldn’t welco here. It seems I was overthinking," Li Feng responded with a smile.
"Why would I not? Having Chairman Li visit is an extraordinary fortune for , Zheng Shan. Chairman Chen has been kind to ; without his support, I wouldn’t be where I am today."
"I’ve long heard of Chairman Li’s exceptional achievents at a young age, standing out from the rest. Appointed for important tasks by Chairman Chen, I’ve been eager to get to know you, but there just hasn’t been the right opportunity."
"This ti is perfect, and I must insist on buying Chairman Li a drink."
Zheng Shan snapped his fingers to the side, and imdiately a waiter brought over drinks, while those around them watched the amicable scene in complete disbelief.
"What’s going on here? Wasn’t there a huge feud between Century Group and Shanshui Group?"
"Yes, I’m confused too. Are they hiding their sharpness behind this harmony, or did I miss sothing?"
"It shouldn’t be, Chairman Zheng didn’t show any rcy when he slapped that young Master Lin. Why is he so courteous with Li Feng?"
The onlookers were baffled, for with Li Feng’s current reputation, it was improbable for Zheng Shan to grant him such respect, since people of different levels weren’t ant to mingle.
Just like them, the ones with a net worth in billions wouldn’t think highly of those rely in the millions. The ones with culture and manners might simply choose to ignore you at most.
As for being friends?
Don’t overthink it.
Reality isn’t like the dramas. You can’t just hop from one circle to another—you need real power for that.
In their eyes, Chairman Li of Century Group was nothing in front of Zheng Shan.
Li Feng lifted his glass and clinked it with Zheng Shan.
Zheng Shan sipped the red wine, squinting his eyes at Li Feng: "Chairman Li, might we find a different place to talk?"
Li Feng looked at Zheng Shan: "I was thinking the sa."
"Please!"
Zheng Shan stepped aside, and the three of them left the banquet scene, drawing even more gazes.
"Damn, this Li Feng seems to be no ordinary person. What’s said online might not be entirely true," Du Chuan in the crowd swallowed hard, utterly relieved that he hadn’t acted impulsively before.
Beside him, Xu Tian was also uncertain: "Maybe, who knows."
Zheng Shan led the way upstairs to a terrace which offered a view of a large swimming pool where Lin Wanzhou was splashing around.
Li Feng looked down at Lin Wanzhou in the water: "Chairman Zheng, slapping young Master Lin’s face like that isn’t sothing trivial, aren’t you afraid he’ll hold a grudge and retaliate?"
Zheng Shan glanced disdainfully at Lin Wanzhou, then turned to look at Li Feng: "Li Feng, let’s not beat around the bush with each other. You almost caused my son to be childless; how shall we settle this account?"
Zheng Shan said casually, his gaze sweeping past Yamada Sakura who was beside Li Feng.
"Chairman Li, you must have a purpose other than just attending the banquet by coming to my Mountain and Water Villa," he couldn’t help but ask.
There could be two possibilities for Yamada Sakura standing beside Li Feng. The first possibility was that he had been completely seen through by the other party. However, his own actions had been extrely secretive; how could they have known?
It was like the mantis stalking the cicada, unaware of the oriole behind, and he could have been that mantis.
And the other possibility was that Yamada Sakura was captured by Li Feng—but if that were the case, it also ant the other party knew of his plans, and even subdued Yamada Sakura in a short amount of ti.
But was that possible?
Even if Yamada Sakura was a woman and was taken by Li Feng, she wouldn’t be so quickly subdued, right? Especially since it had only been about two hours since the operation started this evening, around half-past ten.
Li Feng looked at Zheng Shan and thought the latter would refrain from asking outright.
"The answer is simple, because I am strong enough."
"Hmm?"
Zheng Shan was sowhat incredulous.
"People from Beihai Country respect the strong. As long as you’re strong enough, it’s not difficult to control them. Isn’t that right, Sakura?"
Li Feng looked to Yamada Sakura beside him.
"Yes, he is the strongest man I’ve ever t; to be able to follow him is an honor for Sakura," Yamada Sakura said, blushing.
Holy shit.
Seeing Yamada Sakura’s bashful appearance, was she really tad by Li Feng?
Had sothing unknown to him happened after he left?
Zheng Shan took a deep breath and stopped dwelling on this question, "Chairman Li, bringing Sakura with you clearly ans you’re aware of my plans tonight. So, what brings Chairman Li to my Mountain and Water Villa?"
"If I say I ca for you, Chairman Zheng?"
Li Feng said with a light smile.
Zheng Shan’s face shifted slightly, but he quickly regained composure. "It seems we didn’t have any issues between us previously."
"That was until a few days ago when it seems we did."
"If it concerns my son, I can let bygones be bygones. Chairman Li’s previous restraint is appreciated, and once my son is discharged, I will ensure he personally cos to apologize."
