After Lu Feng finished speaking, he stood up and left. The men in suits standing next to him immediately blocked Lu Feng's way, and one of them pushed him.
"Don't push him, it makes it seem like we're not the good guys." Liu Zhennan turned around and said, "Let him go, we'll talk about the lobsters another day."
“He’s being unreasonable, Mr. Liu, please don’t take offense. I’ll go and talk to him. This guy doesn’t know his place, I’ll say a few words to him.” Hao Dongren stood up in a panic and ran after him.
In the lakeside parking lot, Lu Feng looked at the lake with some irritation. Zhang Fengxia, who was next to him, said, "You were pretty arrogant just now. To be honest, I was a little nervous. What trump cards do you have to fight with him?"
"I'm counting on you!" Lu Feng said, looking at her. "Isn't your uncle supposed to be super powerful?"
Zhang Fengxia originally thought he knew martial arts or something, the kind that could take on ten people at once. She was terrified to think that he could rely on himself. She said, "Aren't you afraid of being lifted up and thrown into the lake? Let's go, hurry!"
"Wait a minute!"
"Wait me a moment!"
Hao Dongren ran over, panting heavily, and leaned on the roof of the car, unable to catch his breath.
"What are you doing? Playing peacemaker?" Lu Feng took out a cigarette from the driver's seat, lit one, and said, "Peacemakers take equal responsibility for both sides, but you're only hitting me? What's going on?"
"Can you take me home?"
"Don't you have a car?" Zhang Fengxia asked, puzzled. "I saw your car parked over there."
"It's too dark over there, and there are small groves and weeds along the roadside. There's not a single person around. What if there are a few people hiding there? They could grab me from behind and drag me in, and I'd be done for," Hao Dongren said cautiously.
Lu Feng and Zhang Fengxia exchanged a speechless glance.
"You'd be doing a disservice to your personality if you didn't live for a thousand years. Get in the car!" Lu Feng waved his hand and sat in the driver's seat.
Along the way, Hao Dongren earnestly advised Lu Feng not to cause trouble, because if people were unhappy, something really serious could happen. He was determined not to get involved, as his life was more important.
Zhang Fengxia sat in the passenger seat looking at Lu Feng, wondering what he was thinking. After spending some time with him, she realized that she couldn't figure him out at all; the depth he sometimes displayed was frightening.
Looks like we'll have to see the newspapers again tomorrow!
"You still want to meet with reporters?" Zhang Fengxia sensed Liu Zhennan's displeasure tonight, especially regarding the newspaper matter.
"Yes, he's unhappy, which means he's feeling the pain behind his back. We must continue. We're not fighting alone. There are several monkeys riding on this tree of interests behind us. Shake the tree and you'll know. The more monkeys there are, the more opponents they have. We're in the open, but who knows how many people are trying to take down the monkeys on this tree behind the scenes. Keep shaking the tree."
After dropping Hao Dongren off at home, Lu Feng drove straight back to the hotel. Zhang Fengxia went directly to her room, and thinking about what Lu Feng had said about the monkey and the tree, she decided to call her grandfather.
"Hey, Grandpa, are you asleep?"
Half an hour later, Zhang Fengxia hung up the phone. Her grandfather told her that Lu Feng was an interesting person. His move was called "borrowing momentum." Lu Feng couldn't really handle Liu Zhennan, but he was going to spread the word and tell everyone that he was going to take him down.
Many people are watching secretly, and quite a few have a grudge against the monkey on this tree of profit. If he can get a lot of support, he will gain the upper hand, and the other party, whether it is Liu Zhennan or Li Zhennan, will have to back down because the trend is unstoppable.
If those people in the shadows are hesitant and timid, he won't be able to leverage their power. If he plays it right, he can escape unscathed; if he plays it wrong, he'll lose his life. How exactly he plays it depends on how people operate.
The current situation is like dancing on a knife's edge, but the greater the risk, the greater the profit. If Lu Feng wins, he will win too much.
Zhang Fengxia sat on the bed in a daze, her grandfather's words still echoing in her mind: This man was very skilled, at least a veteran who had been in the business world for ten or twenty years. He had a good grasp of the nuances of things. He would publish a newspaper article first, then talk, and if they couldn't reach an agreement, he would continue publishing newspaper articles, pressing her step by step.
"Him? A twenty-year veteran in the business world?" Zhang Fengxia muttered. "He's only a year older than me, isn't he? An old fox?"
