Chapter 297 The Feast at Hongmen



These people were all talking at once, not taking the matter to heart at all. They didn't realize what a recording could do. They did many things very openly and didn't need to hide anything.

"Stupid!!" Hu Yaoqing cursed at the group, "A bunch of pigs! Is Lu Feng an ordinary person? Just a commoner? If he were, would we need to bother with this? We could just drag him out and beat him up, and everything would be solved!"

"Yeah, a beating will solve the problem, and he won't dare to meddle in other people's business anymore."

Hu Yaoqing was speechless upon hearing this. When a person's status reaches a certain level, exorbitant profits cannot solve any problems; on the contrary, they will only harm oneself.

Beating up an ordinary person goes unpunished, but beating up Lu Feng will definitely land you a life sentence in jail.

This is the difference in status!

"Mr. Hu, all he said was to delay for a month. No matter what evidence he has, let's lock him up, give him good food and drink for a month, and that'll be fine."

"That's right, in that case, it's not illegal detention or restriction of personal freedom. We're just treating people, it's an act of hospitality!"

Hu Yaoqing's face lit up with joy, and he said, "That's great, you understand illegal detention now, you understand the law now."

The man looked embarrassed and said, "I was sentenced to eight months last time for this crime!"

"Okay, let's do it this way. You're treating us to dinner tonight!"

.................

Lu Feng put the cassette tape away, went to the restaurant for breakfast. He was quite tired from spending the last few days with Ma Jiao. He went back to his room, took a shower, turned on the TV, and curled up on the sofa, wanting to give himself a break.

I hadn't watched TV for more than a few minutes when there was a knock on the door.

Who is it?

"It's me, He Xiaohui. Shall we go out today?"

"I'm not going out; I'll stay in the hotel."

"Our captain asked me to tell you that our protection period ends the day after tomorrow, and then we will leave."

the day after tomorrow?

Lu Feng said he understood. His cooperation with Qin Zhong was not pleasant either, as the man had a rather arrogant attitude.

In the next day or two, Mr. Li should have figured things out. Both sides are only going to make a move on each other. It's one thing to fight behind the scenes, but if they bring it up in public and things fall apart, then there will be big problems.

During lunch, Li Na started asking questions again, saying she hadn't been able to sleep for the past few days. She started crying again as she talked, and Lu Feng could only comfort her, saying that it would be fine soon and that there would definitely be news in the next couple of days, so don't worry.

After lunch, Lu Feng went back to his room for a nap. He was woken up by a phone call, so he came out of his bedroom and answered the phone, "Who is this?"

"You must be President Lu. I'm Hu Yaoqing. We've become friends through a fight, and things have escalated to this point. Nobody wants things to get to this point. Let's have dinner and drinks together tonight and make peace. What do you think?" Hu Yaoqing said.

Have a meal?

"No need. Mr. Hu, just issue a statement to hand back control of Tianying Copper Industry and withdraw your people. Once things are stable here, we can drink together anytime."

"Let's have a drink first. It's more sincere to talk face to face. We used to be brothers, but I was blind to your greatness. I've already made concessions, so why is Mr. Lu being so disrespectful?"

Lu Feng thought about it for a moment and realized there was something fishy going on. Although he kept saying he was backing down, his words implied that he couldn't skip the meal.

There's definitely something wrong with this dinner party.

Upon closer examination, given his intelligence, the only thing he could possibly do was lock himself up.

"This food is not good. I'm afraid I might not be able to come back. If General Hu arrests me, I'll be completely helpless."

Hu Yaoqing's face stiffened on the other end of the phone. He thought to himself, "Are these people really that smart? They actually guessed it right away."

"How could that be? That's impossible! You absolutely must come to this meal!"

"I'm not sure yet, I'll let you know in a bit," Lu Feng said before hanging up.

Qin Zhong and his men all carried guns, which was fine for their safety, but whether they dared to fire was another matter entirely. If they did, things would get really serious.

Lu Feng figured the other side could easily find twenty or thirty men to fight on their home turf, thus keeping him safe away from home.

After thinking for a while, I picked up the phone and called Huang Youwei.

"What is it?"

"How's your relationship with that old classmate?" Lu Feng asked bluntly.

"What's wrong now?"

"Back then, Xiang Yu invited Liu Bang, and now Hu Yaoqing is inviting me. Although I have people with me, I still don't feel safe!"

"A trap? I forgot to tell you, they've been keeping an eye on this Hu Yaoqing. He's got a lot going on, and it seems like they're going to arrest him tonight. This is inside information, so don't spread it around. That's all."

"Beep beep beep!"

The call ended.
