Chapter 1341: Leng Feng Comes Prepared

~8 min read 1,439 words

No wonder it sounded familiar.

Shi Ran remembered; the new Minister of Commerce really did have that name.

Young and promising.

The Ministry of Commerce is a very important department, especially for business families like the Sheng Family and the Yun Family.

Who would have thought that someone as simple as Tang Nainai would have such a powerful relative!

And a close relative at that; it is her grandson.

The banquet lasted for three hours.

The time agreed upon by the couple had arrived, but she had not received a call from her husband, and she had forgotten to urge him.

The banquet ended.

Several people walked to the main entrance, and the Security Guard had driven the car over!

"It was a pleasure meeting you, goodbye!"

This meal was not eaten in vain; she and Kang had a very pleasant conversation.

The Sheng Family and the Yun Family are both reputable merchants in Jiangzhou, so Kang attaches great importance to them; the two talked more and more congenially about the direction of future economic development.

On the way home, the excitement Shi Ran felt earlier had not yet faded.

She did not expect that the grandmother she met by chance on the plane would actually be the grandmother of the Minister of Commerce.

In order to establish a connection with the new Minister of Commerce, almost all the reputable merchants in Jiangzhou were looking for connections and ways in.

Sheng Hanyu and Yun Zhehao had not failed to think of this either.

Yet they had not found a way in, and they did not expect that Shi Ran would be the one to make the connection.

This world is too small, but it also fully illustrates one thing—doing more good deeds is still useful.

Good people are rewarded.

Waving goodbye at the entrance, Shi Ran drove home.

Upon arriving home, she did not see any light shining through the windows; could it be that Qi Tian was not at home?

She parked the car and opened the door to enter the house.

"Qi Tian."

"Husband."

"Husband..."

There was no response in the room; he was indeed not at home.

Shi Ran muttered to herself: "Strange, why is he not home so late? Where could he have gone?"

She took out her phone and dialed her husband's number.

"Beep—"

The other side hung up.

She thought it was a slip of the hand and dialed again, but a cold female voice came from the other side: "Sorry, the number you have dialed is powered off..."

Powered off?

Shi Ran felt a little uneasy in her heart.

Could something bad have happened?

Yun Qitian had never hung up on her before, and he never turned off his phone.

This time it was abnormal.

She dialed Yun Qitian's office number again.

"Beep, beep, beep—"

"Beep, beep, beep—"

"Beep, beep, beep—"

The landline on the desk rang incessantly, and the office was filled with smoke.

"Cough, cough, cough..."

Yun Qitian was sitting in the office; it was already very late, but he still had no intention of going home.

The smell of smoke was too foul.

He kept fanning it with his hand, yet like a true heavy smoker, he smoked incessantly.

The ashtray was already filled with cigarette butts.

Pressing another one in, Yun Qitian reached for the cigarette pack, but it was empty.

The phone rang; it was a call from his wife.

He cut it off almost without hesitation, then turned off the phone.

He did not want to answer, because he did not know what to say after connecting.

Not long after Shi Ran left the house, he also received a call asking him to go out and meet.

The phone number was unfamiliar, but the voice was not.

Upon hearing this voice, the expression on his face was as if he had been struck by lightning; he was petrified on the spot!

His mind was full of question marks; why?

Wasn't that person already dead?

When Qi Heng was buried, he had supervised the entire process; there absolutely could not have been any problems, and his identity had been verified—Qi Heng was dead, dead through and through.

He calmed his mood, thinking it was just a coincidence.

There are many people with similar voices; it was no big deal, no need to be suspicious.

The person on the phone asked him to meet.

He agreed.

The person on the other side asked to meet him at a coffee shop, and Yun Qitian's heart trembled once again.

Every time Qi Heng asked someone to meet, it was at a coffee shop.

But it was nothing; many people chose coffee shops to discuss matters, it was just a coincidence, no need to be so sensitive.

So he agreed and went to the coffee shop to meet that person.

When he saw the person for the first time, Yun Qitian's heart trembled again.

"Qi Heng?" he blurted out.

"Sit!"

He sat down, his eyes wide open: "Qi Heng, it really is you. What do you want by coming to Jiangzhou?"

Leng Feng smiled: "Qi Heng? No, I am not. My name is Leng Feng, this is my business card."

He took a business card out of his bag and handed it over with both hands: "Senior, I have admired you for a long time."

Yun Qitian took the business card and glanced at it.

Heh.

There were quite a few titles on it.

Cardiovascular Expert.

Honorary Member of the Heart Research Society.

Deputy Director of the Global Adolescent Heart Disease Foundation.

Honorary Director of the Jiangzhou University School of Medicine.

A long string of impressive titles.

These things were not easy to fake and would be easily exposed; if the person sitting opposite him really were Qi Heng, it would be too stupid for him to lie in this way.

Yun Qitian took out his phone and, without any attempt to hide it, checked the person's information right in front of Leng Feng.

Everything was correct.

It was not fake.

"Is your name really Leng Feng?"

"Yes, I have used this name for over twenty years, but I didn't expect to be doubted twice in two days."

Leng Feng was all smiles, looking completely unbothered.

But Yun Qitian was bothered.

He was bothered by everything and everyone related to Qi Heng.

This man named Leng Feng had a voice and appearance exactly like Qi Heng's; he was too bothered, as if facing a formidable enemy.

"What do you want with me?" Yun Qitian did not have a pleasant expression.

Leng Feng did not beat around the bush and got straight to the point: "I like Shi Ran, I fell in love with her at first sight, but she married you, so I want to duel you. Whoever wins gets Shi Ran."

It would have been better if Yun Qitian hadn't heard this, but upon hearing such words, he was instantly furious.

"Bullshit!"

He slapped the table and stood up, his eyes glaring with rage: "Do you think this is the Middle Ages? A duel?"

"Shi Ran is my wife, we are a loving couple, why should I duel you? Who do you think you are?"

Leng Feng was not agitated; he maintained his signature smile from before and said: "Senior, I am your alumnus."

Yun Qitian:...

Speechless.

He suspected that this person had a problem with his brain.

So what if he was an alumnus?

Their school had plenty of alumni; did being an alumnus mean one could snatch his wife?

His thoughts were clearly expressed on his face.

Or rather, he had no intention of hiding them at all; he wanted Leng Feng to see it and retreat in the face of difficulty.

But clearly, Yun Qitian and Leng Feng were not on the same wavelength!

Leng Feng smiled and said unhurriedly: "Senior, I know all about your past, much more than Shi Ran knows. Senior is very impressive; you used to change girlfriends like changing clothes."

"Your ex-girlfriends were all talented and beautiful, and they were all infatuated with you..."

He said it calmly, and Yun Qitian listened quietly.

Yun Qitian wanted to see what kind of tricks he would pull.

He did have many ex-girlfriends, and Shi Ran knew this; was he going to use this to threaten him?

The tactic was a bit too low-level.

But after Leng Feng said a certain sentence, Yun Qitian was no longer calm!

"Women, after all, are always more emotional and less rational. Those women you abandoned after they became pregnant still insisted on giving birth to your children..."
