Xiao Cheng tossed the person onto the sofa and sat down opposite him.
He casually pulled out a tissue and slowly wiped the redness from his knuckles, his cold gaze fixed on the person opposite him.
He seemed rather impatient.
Seeing stars, Li Jianfeng lay there for a while before he came to his senses and slowly raised his eyes.
"You just wait..."
After slowly straightening his crooked posture, messy collar, and reassembled limbs, and smoothing his flowing hair, Li Jianfeng finally spoke slowly: "All done."
However, as soon as he opened his mouth, his lips split open.
He winced in pain: "Tsk—"
"Why are you hitting so hard? You always do this. Do you even want to work with us anymore..."
"If I hadn't given in to you because I was in the wrong, would you still be sitting here properly?" Li Jianfeng covered his bruised and swollen face, grimacing as he tried to maintain his last shred of dignity.
Xiao Cheng tossed a piece of paper into the trash can, leaned back, and casually crossed his long legs.
His posture was both casual and domineering; his cold eyes were slightly raised, scattering the dazzling crystal lights.
Li Jianfeng would never admit that he was even slightly frightened, but it was definitely because he hadn't fought back and was still a bit disoriented from the beating.
I'm about to go crazy: "Forget it, forget it!"
"For your sake... for my sake..." After a long pause, unable to find a good word, he finally said, "Fine, fine!"
"Considering that we've been rivals for so many years, I'll be magnanimous this time and let it go!"
Xiao Cheng: "Who would sympathize with you?"
Looking at that arrogant, punchable face, Li Jianfeng felt like going crazy.
However, he had such a good temper that he barely held back: "You've already gotten your revenge, what more do you want? Don't push your luck!"
"When I go crazy, even I'm afraid of myself!"
Xiao Cheng: "..."
I finally shut him up.
After holding his anger in for so long, Li Jianfeng finally got to vent it by snapping his fingers.
The underlings who had been guarding the door ran in tremblingly, awaiting instructions.
"Go back to the main hall and bring me that document from my drawer."
After instructing his underlings, Li Jianfeng asked another underling to call two girls to examine his wounds and apply medicine.
Damn it!
No one knows whether he's crazy or Xiao Cheng is crazy, but when they beat people up, they're crazy to the core.
They were afraid that leaving even a little bit of strength would be wasted.
The girl who came to get her medicine applied was really something else... "What are you looking at! My face was a million times prettier than his before I got injured. If you're going to apply medicine, then do it properly. What are you looking around for? Do you want to lose your job?"
"You've poked a cotton swab right into my mouth, do you want to get fired?!"
The two pretty girls blushed and apologized repeatedly after being scolded by Li Jianfeng.
She obediently applied medicine to the old man's bruised and swollen face, no longer daring to steal glances at the incredibly handsome man across the street.
But I was already feeling quite elated.
Cheng-ge...who in Pingcheng doesn't know him?
Whenever Cheng-ge is in a place, the men around him are not considered human; they are all No-Face.
Cheng Ge possesses an unparalleled appearance that sweeps across the entire scene, a unique personal charm, and an overwhelming aura of a powerful figure. Even when he's just sitting there, he's impossible to ignore.
Not to mention, at this moment, his focused expression as he looks down at the documents is captivating.
Not to mention pretty girls.
"Ouch! Where are you poking me?! It hurts like hell! You can't even apply the medicine properly, are you even capable of anything? Get out of here!"
Li Jianfeng had really had enough.
He snatched the ointment from the girl, who had been applying it for ages, and started applying it himself.
If the girls keep wiping him, he'll be crippled if not killed. I really suspect Xiao Cheng has given them some kind of spell.
One or two of them were completely bewitched by that guy.
She secretly sought revenge for him.
"Wait!" Li Jianfeng suddenly called out to the girl, his eyes flashing with excitement without warning.
"Brother Cheng must be tired after a long train journey. Why don't you give him a shoulder massage and a leg rub, give him a good massage?"
The pretty girls were overjoyed, their steps halting instantly at the doorway as they turned around quickly.
But before they could even take a single step...
An ashtray flew overhead.
With terrifying force, it sliced through their line of sight and slammed into the sofa opposite them.
Whether Li Jianfeng had anticipated it or was subconsciously preparing in advance, he quickly dodged away.
The ashtray hit the back of the leather sofa, leaving a dent that didn't bounce back up for a long time.
This shows how terrifying it can be when a big shot gets angry.
The two pretty girls were so frightened that they froze on the spot, too scared to move.
Li Jianfeng was satisfied: "See? Brother Cheng really doesn't like you guys!"
"You're not gentle enough! Not considerate enough! Not cute enough! Not pretty enough! You're not even as good as Brother Cheng's little darling! That's why Brother Cheng doesn't even bother to look at you. He finds you utterly repulsive!"
The two beautiful girls were the most sought-after top courtesans at Tian Shang, and they didn't believe Li Jianfeng's nonsense.
You can see Xiao Cheng sitting on the sofa. After throwing away the ashtray, he continued to flip through the documents. His face was frosty, and he remained silent, displaying a cold and aloof attitude that kept people at a distance.
There wasn't a single word of rebuttal.
Not to mention explanations.
The pretty girl finally had to believe Li Jianfeng's lies, and ran away heartbroken, covering her face.
Li Jianfeng smiled happily.
Let's see if any girls will still look at Xiao Cheng after this. They'll all be scared away by his coldness and ruthlessness.
Xiao Cheng has a notorious reputation!
You'd better keep this up, otherwise how can you continue to be considered one of the two most notorious villains on the path!
That's it?
Xiao Cheng tossed the document he had just finished reading onto the coffee table: "Three crawlers?"
Li Jianfeng painfully poked himself, then abruptly flung away the cotton swab: "Three is plenty!"
"The night before my sister-in-law made the list, the boss, He Yongli, and Xu Dongtai had a secret meeting on the top floor of the Global Club in Nanshi. These three worms were their trusted confidants who were acting as their drivers."
The four major powers have divided Nanshi for many years and will not allow a fifth power to rise; suppression is inevitable.
Li Chengbin's father-in-law, unlike the other three forces, openly sought to eliminate them completely.
The local tycoon Xu Dongtai, the casino owner He Yongli, and the big boss operate in a gray area.
The initial suppression was just a minor warning, nothing serious. The fact that it could get the three major powers to discuss it together clearly shows that this fifth force has already attracted their attention.
We must strike at the root, exploit its weaknesses, and gradually and devastatingly eradicate it.
In less than six months, Xiao Cheng, who now owns the city's only appliance store, an electric chestnut roasting machine factory, a fruit export trade, and has gathered forces from all sides, has clearly become a thorn in the side of the four major powers.
This rapidly rising fifth force was unsurprisingly included in the destroyed monopoly plan.
The first target of the plan was, unsurprisingly, the weakness of the fifth power leader.
Xiao Cheng's wife, Bai Lu.
And, Bai Lu, the strategist who was the right-hand man of the fifth power leader and advised him.
Li Jianfeng and Xiao Cheng had been in the underworld for too long, and they knew the methods of those people all too well.
It goes without saying what it means for the three long-time rivals to suddenly come together.
