Chapter 42 I've Bet!



Gao Zhiwei was getting impatient waiting at the hotel and even began to suspect that Lu Feng had gone to the United States.

Without Lu Feng's contact information, we can only continue to wait!

The next morning, the City Morning Post, the local newspaper with the largest circulation, prominently featured a photo of Lu Feng on its front page, with the headline in bold: "The snack industry is in turmoil, and the young dragon slayer has unsheathed his sword!"

After finishing his breakfast, Gao Zhiwei bought a newspaper. When he saw Lu Feng's name, he froze, took a closer look at the article, and his mind went completely blank.

The reporter not only exaggerated the feud between Lu Feng and Ren Qianbo, but even wrote a flirtatious love triangle, labeling Lu Feng as a peasant entrepreneur, a dragon-slaying hero, an avenger, and someone who had a serendipitous encounter.

The report had the feel of a third-rate novel throughout, but these days newspapers rely on this kind of thing to sell, so it's not surprising.

"Sir, can I ask you something? Is this real?" Gao Zhiwei asked, somewhat incredulous.

"It's true, this newspaper is full of true stories. The sugar factory in the suburbs has reopened. As for Ren Qianbo's wife, Zhang Yali, she became Lu Feng's wet nurse. Later, Lu Feng fell in love with Zhang Yali, but Ren Qianbo stole her away. Now he wants to kill Ren Qianbo himself and win back his true love. This matter..."

The old man smacked his lips, feeling that this plot was comparable to "Thunderstorm," so outrageous it would be deadly; the newspaper would definitely sell well today.

Gao Zhiwei wasn't stupid; he was a man who had traveled all over the country and had seen all sorts of situations. He understood immediately, gripping the newspaper tightly and clenching his teeth as if he wanted to devour someone!

"grass!!"

Gao Zhiwei cursed, feeling like he wanted to kill someone. His promising future was ruined. The first thing he thought of was to call the company immediately.

I ran to a phone booth and called Wahaha's office.

"Hello, this is Wahaha, who is this?"

"Hello, this is Gao Zhiwei, the former marketing manager. Could you transfer me to General Manager Zong's office?"

"Mr. Zong is very busy. What can I do for you?"

“I was in a bad mood a few days ago, but I’m feeling much better now. I’d like to go back to work. Is that okay? You can transfer me to Manager Li in the HR department.”

"I'm sorry, the marketing department is currently fully staffed!"

The call was disconnected, and Gao Zhiwei was completely stunned. The company was currently in a period of rapid growth, and the internal competition was fierce. In just a few days, he had already missed the opportunity.

Despair filled his eyes, and tears welled up in the eyes of this grown man as he broke down in tears.

"I have no grudge against you, you fucking lied to me, you son of a bitch!" Gao Zhiwei squatted next to the phone booth and cursed Lu Feng's ancestors for eighteen generations.

After waking up and having breakfast, Lu Feng sat there sneezing repeatedly, wondering who was cursing him. He knew without asking that it was Ren Qianbo. After washing up, he thought about going to see Gao Zhiwei.

But should we continue pretending this time?

Renting a Mercedes-Benz W14 costs a lot of money, and Lu Feng has been spending money painfully these past few days!

Having already spent so much money, a little more won't make a difference. After changing into a suit and tie, he stood in front of the mirror looking at himself. Jiang Xiaoyan walked over, glanced at him, and said with a smile, "You're getting more and more handsome now. The families downstairs all think you've returned from studying abroad, since you speak English all the time."

Lu Feng has some simple vocabulary that he uses in English, such as "thank you" and "goodbye".

"Then you should tell them that I studied abroad and came back, doesn't that sound like me?"

Jiang Xiaoyan smiled, looked at Lu Feng, and said, "Don't we look particularly mismatched standing together now?"

"What kind of talk is that? You're so beautiful, don't overthink it, okay?" Lu Feng sensed that she was a little uneasy, so he turned around and put his arm around her neck. Their eyes met, which made Jiang Xiaoyan a little flustered.

"You should go to work."

"You have to say goodbye with a kiss, okay?"

"What kind of goodbye kiss is that? Who does that? Stop being silly and get to work. Duoduo is here."

Jiang Xiaoyan was both ashamed and embarrassed. She pushed against Lu Feng's chest with her hands, but her soft, boneless little hands were so weak and powerless. Duoduo ran out of the bedroom, stared wide-eyed, and shouted, "Daddy, shame on you!"

"The baby is out!"

"Never mind her, she's ruined all the good things." Lu Feng said, then lowered his head and kissed her.

Jiang Xiaoyan's eyes widened, rippling like a clear spring. They parted a few minutes later, with Lu Feng saying, "I have to go now!"

Lu Feng opened the door and went downstairs. Jiang Xiaoyan plopped down on the sofa, still feeling a bit short of breath. She licked her lips, her expression ambiguous.

They rented another Mercedes-Benz W140 and drove Da Tou and Han Dong straight to the Regent Hotel. When they got upstairs, they found Gao Zhiwei's room door wide open, and he was sitting on the bed looking dejected.

I've been a bit busy these past few days and almost forgot about you. I'm so sorry!

"Are you having tea with Gates or playing cards with Soros?" Gao Zhiwei looked up at Lu Feng with a mocking smile and asked, "I haven't offended you before, have I?"

"What kind of talk is that? My family isn't familiar with those two people you mentioned!" Lu Feng realized that he had been exposed.

"Gates invited my father for tea, but he was too busy to go. As for Soros..." Da Tou wanted to sing Lu Feng's praises, but Lu Feng stopped him.

“Do you know what I’ve lost? In the past two years, I’ve joined Wahaha and worked my way up from a small workshop to where I am today. I’m a marketing manager now, and it’s a sure thing that I’ll become the general manager. Now all my hard work over the past two years has been for nothing.”

I'll kill you!

Gao Zhiwei roared, getting angrier the more he thought about it. He rushed forward, grabbed Lu Feng by the collar, and was about to attack when Da Tou and Han Dong immediately rushed over.
