Chapter 44: Visitors from the Dugu Sect
After Jiang Anguo left, Lin Feng then ordered Chen Feihu to clean up the entire bar.
"Alright, Fifth Senior Sister, now no one will disturb us from drinking!" Lin Feng smiled.
Shen Man and An Yuqing were both filled with shock and disbelief.
At this moment, their perception of Lin Feng had completely changed!
An Yuqing's eyes were full of excitement, thrill, and an inexplicable emotion.
He was the eldest young master of the Lin Family; everyone said he was a good-for-nothing, yet who would have thought he was actually this formidable.
No wonder he had displayed that calm and composed demeanor just now!
Women in the city admire strength, and An Yuqing was no different.
Having witnessed Lin Feng's prowess, she was actually feeling a bit of a heartbeat for him at this moment!
"Xiao Man, so your classmate is this amazing!"
"I'm sorry, I underestimated you just now!" An Yuqing reached out her hand and took the initiative to shake hands with Lin Feng.
Beside them, Lin Wei also revealed a sweet smile: "See, Sister Shen Man, I didn't lie to you, did I!"
"My brother is very amazing!" Lin Wei said, waving her small fist.
Shen Man then smiled, looking slightly embarrassed: "Alright, alright!"
"You all sit down, I'll go get the drinks!"
Afterward, Shen Man brought over many beers, and the few of them sat together and started chatting.
Lin Feng briefly recounted his experiences over these years.
Shen Man listened in a daze; she didn't understand anything about Martial Dao techniques, cultivation, or gathering herbs.
She only knew that Lin Feng had suffered a lot over these years!
For a moment, she actually felt a bit of heartache for the man before her!
One had to know, the current Lin Feng was only twenty-four years old!
With his family destroyed and being hunted down, any one of these things, if it fell upon someone else, would likely leave them unable to recover.
It was unexpected that Lin Feng had actually taken a master while away and become so formidable.
"What about you? Xiao Man, how did your father's company suddenly go bankrupt?" Lin Feng asked in confusion.
"Sigh, it was the Zhao Family; they wanted to acquire my father's construction company, but my father didn't agree!"
"Later, we were completely blacklisted by the Zhao Family throughout the city, and there was no business to be done!"
Shen Man originally didn't want to say it, but now that Lin Feng had already offended the Zhao Family, she had no more concerns.
"The Zhao Family again!"
At this time, Lin Wei suddenly seemed to think of something: "I remember one time when I was shopping with Sister Shen Man, we ran into a few direct descendants of the Shen Family!"
"They wanted to bully me at the time, but then Uncle Shen came out and stopped that group!"
"Not many days later, the Zhao Family came to Uncle Shen's construction company to cause trouble!"
"Could it be because of me..." A look of sadness appeared on Lin Wei's face.
Shen Man hurriedly comforted her: "Weiwei, you're overthinking it!"
"It's not because of you!"
"The Zhao Family is tyrannical and commits all kinds of evil in Jiangbei; as long as it's something they have their eyes on, they will definitely find a way to get their hands on it!"
"If others don't agree, they target them behind the scenes!"
Fearing that Lin Wei would overthink, Shen Man hurriedly explained.
But Lin Wei knew everything now; those people must have gone back and told the Zhao Family.
"Sister Shen Man, don't lie to me!"
"These three years, anyone who has been close to me hasn't had a good ending!"
"Even my former classmates look at me like they've seen a jinx!"
"It must be the Shen Family targeting me in secret for it to become like this!"
"They don't want to see me live well!" Lin Wei said, filled with self-reproach.
And she wasn't wrong; although she had the Cold Gu planted in her, the Zhao Family still didn't intend to let her go.
The reason the Shen Family went bankrupt was also entirely because Shen Man and Lin Wei were associated.
Shen Man had always wanted to protect this younger sister, which was why she didn't want Lin Wei to know the truth.
But now, it seemed as if Lin Wei understood everything.
In an instant, a flash of crazed killing intent crossed the depths of Lin Feng's eyes!
A fine Zhao Family indeed!
Seeing that Lin Feng's expression was off, Shen Man hurriedly raised her glass: "Alright, alright!"
"Let's not talk about sad things from the past!"
"Weiwei, it's enough that your brother is back!"
"From now on, we'll live our lives well!"
"If the money is gone, we can just earn it back slowly!"
Shen Man had always been optimistic, and she didn't want Lin Feng to overthink things.
The group raised their glasses together and clinked them; soon, they had gone through three rounds of drinks.
The four of them chatted and laughed, having seemingly forgotten the sad matters from just a moment ago!
Shen Man's face was slightly flushed, and her eyes kept fixed on Lin Feng, as if she had something on her mind.
"What's wrong?" Lin Feng asked immediately upon seeing her staring at him.
"No... nothing!"
Some things are better kept to oneself; there is no need to speak them aloud.
The Shen Family now has nothing, and Shen Man knows that Lin Feng is already different!
He will become more and more powerful, and she is not worthy of him!
"Sister Shen Man, do you like my brother?" Lin Wei suddenly said with a smile.
These words immediately made Shen Man blush with shyness.
"Weiwei, what nonsense are you spouting?"
"I have always regarded him as a friend!" Shen Man's face was as red as an apple.
She hurriedly turned her head away, not daring to look directly at Lin Feng again.
"By the way, you just got back, you haven't found a job yet, right?"
"If it really doesn't work out, just come work with me!"
"Although the salary here isn't high, only seven or eight thousand a month, it's enough to spend!" Shen Man smiled.
Although Lin Feng's senior sister is the boss of the Qilin Gang, the Qilin Gang, after all, deals in gray industries.
Shen Man knows that with Lin Feng's personality, he certainly wouldn't rely on the Qilin Gang for a living.
Before long, Lin Wei will be going to university, which will be no small expense.
Hearing Shen Man's words, Lin Feng couldn't help but laugh.
"You don't need to worry about my job!"
"On the contrary, it won't do for you to keep working in a place like this; you should change jobs!"
"As it happens, I'm short an assistant; if you don't mind, come work under me," Lin Feng said.
Hearing this, Shen Man was slightly stunned: "Assistant? What kind of assistant?"
Could it be that Lin Feng has started a company?
Impossible, he just returned and is penniless; how could he have the money to start a company!
Shen Man felt he was joking!
"I'll call you in a few days, just come to work then!"
The old master of the Ye Family gifted the Hanhai Group to him, and he hasn't gone to take it over yet.
Tomorrow, once he takes over the Hanhai Group, he will transfer Shen Man over immediately.
Working in a place like a bar, it is inevitable to be harassed.
An Yuqing looked at Lin Feng with some envy: "Why don't you take me in too!"
"I don't want to run this lousy bar anymore either!"
The next day at noon, Jiangbei, Wang Family.
Several figures slowly stepped down from a luxury car.
In the main hall of the Wang Family, after these few days of treatment, Wang Fugui is already able to get out of bed and walk.
It is just that he is still leaning on a cane, and at this moment, a guard ran in hurriedly.
"Lord Head of the Family, people from the Dugu Sect have arrived!"
Experts from the Dugu Sect have come?
Wang Tianba stood up from his chair in pleasant surprise: "Quick, follow me out to welcome the important figures from the Dugu Sect!"
Wang Tianba and seven or eight members of the Wang Family, along with a Wang Family Elder, hurriedly went out to welcome them.
