"Why are you talking so much while you're just driving?" Zhu Lidong scolded him a couple of times, then leaned back in his seat, closed his eyes to rest, and said nothing more.
Around 4 PM, before Wei Yandan left, Lu Feng gave her a task: to transfer three million yuan of recent financial expenditures to an account in another province.
At six o'clock in the evening, Lu Feng sat down with Su Yourong in the coffee shop, ordered a cup of coffee, and looked at the person opposite him. Lu Feng asked, "Are you planning to go back to your hometown for the New Year, or go back to Hong Kong?"
“Let’s go back to Hong Kong. I’m always on edge here.” Su Yourong looked at Lu Feng and said, “You know what I’m afraid of. Last night I was thinking, if I didn’t talk to you at the board meeting, and you called me tonight, I could be in jail.”
"Haha, no, I'm not that petty," Lu Feng said with a laugh. In fact, what Lu Feng was thinking was that if she used any more tricks today, Su Yourong would definitely not be able to go back.
“I know you pretty well. I’ll be back the day after tomorrow. What did you want to ask me? Where is the lithography machine?” Su Yourong smiled and said, “I’m not too sure either. The information I got is that it has started loading onto the ship and should arrive around the time of the Chinese New Year.”
"Your money will arrive in a few days. I hope everything goes smoothly." Lu Feng sipped his coffee and chatted about Sun Hung Kai Properties.
Half an hour later, Lu Feng glanced at the time and said, "I still have some things to do. You should eat something first."
"Where are you going?" Su Yourong asked, puzzled.
“I’ll sit with Feng Zhiyao for a while. After all, it’s been so long, I should entertain him. It’s the proper way to treat guests.”
"Take care of my business first, then you can go. Please entertain me first." Su Yourong said, standing up, picking up her bag, and making a move to leave.
"I'm treating you like this, aren't I? I'll have dinner with you tomorrow."
"Let's find another place to entertain you."
The two of them tugged and pulled each other as they went upstairs. Lu Feng understood what was going on at that moment and asked, "Aren't you here on your period?"
"Those who come will leave, so go inside."
It was almost 8:30 p.m., and Feng Zhiyao was waiting in the private room as agreed. The waiter had come in several times to ask if they wanted to order, but Feng Zhiyao waved his hand and asked his assistant outside the door, "Where is Brother Feng?"
"I'm sorry, let me call again to check. There might be something else going on," the assistant said apologetically.
Just as the assistant was about to make a call, Lu Feng strode over, carrying a suit jacket in his hand. His hair was also quite messy. He roughly tidied it up with his hands and entered the private room.
"Brother Feng, where have you been?" Feng Zhiyao asked, noticing him panting heavily.
"It's nothing, I just had an in-depth discussion with the shareholders and exchanged some opinions." Lu Feng sat down and looked at him, saying, "A little verbal sparring is inevitable, it's normal. Let's serve the food."
Feng Zhiyao talked mostly about his own affairs with Lu Feng: how his family was doing, how his company was doing, and how Sun Hung Kai's board of directors was in complete chaos, with each faction forming its own group, which he had no control over.
“Zhiyao, you need to grow up. Although we are human beings and live in a civilized society, there is one thing: no matter what kind of society it is, the rule of the jungle will never change. You need to take control of the company quickly. You also said that the major shareholder, Mr. Li, makes you very uncomfortable, so you need to win over the majority of the board of directors.” Lu Feng looked at him and earnestly advised, “You can’t hesitate when you do things. When it’s time to be ruthless, you have to be ruthless.”
Lu Feng talked to him a lot, and Feng Zhiyao understood all these principles, but he just couldn't bring himself to do it. The people around him since he was a child were all kind and gentle. He believed that this kindness was not driven by any interests, but was purely due to the goodness of human nature.
Just like how Lu Feng was kind to him and taught him a lot, these things were not driven by self-interest, but simply because the two got along well. Feng Zhiyao preferred to believe in the pure goodness deep in people's hearts.
It's like the old man next door. He's always so kind, giving you candy every now and then. This kindness has nothing to do with my parents occasionally helping him with chores or doing things that older people can't do.
After hearing what he said, Lu Feng felt like he was doomed. Looking at the big boy in front of him, this man was no different from a lamb meeting a grown tiger when facing Li Zhaoji.
“Sigh…” Lu Feng sighed deeply.
"Brother Feng, why are you sighing again?" Feng Zhiyao asked, puzzled.
"I feel so powerless. In the end, I might not have lost to evil, but to good. I once read a book that said that sometimes good is ten thousand times more ruthless than evil," Lu Feng said helplessly.
