Chapter 539: Saw an Acquaintance

10 p. m.

"I'll do it myself!"

Lin Feng said.

"Don't move!"

Li Huiying brushed Lin Feng's hand aside and took off his shoes and socks.

She put his feet in a basin of hot water, and Lin Feng inhaled deeply.

He suddenly felt his body warm up.

Li Huiying finished washing Lin Feng's feet and found that he had already collapsed onto the bed, asleep.

Lin Feng was truly exhausted.

Riding the Jasmine craft, he had traveled a far‑too‑long distance… hmm, it's true!

Jiang Xiaofei is becoming more sensible now; that look, that demeanor… tsk tsk!

Lin Feng suddenly realized that another person had unlocked a new skill.

It could even be compared with Zhu Li's technique.

Can't resist!

Seeing Brother Shang Xun asleep, Li Huiying carefully dried the water off Lin Feng's feet and carried the foot‑washing basin away.

She removed her makeup, took a shower, spent more than half an hour, returned to the room, and found Lin Feng already curled up under the blankets.

So she lifted the blankets and slipped inside.

She turned off the light, hugged Lin Feng around the waist, and soon fell asleep.

She slept through until dawn.

It's Saturday, but Li Huiying has just started her job and still has work to do.

She checked the time and quickly got up.

Just as she was about to leave, Lin Feng grabbed her, causing her to slump onto the edge of the bed.

"Stop messing around!"

Li Huiying patted Lin Feng's hand.

"It's the weekend today; aren't you going to sleep in?" Lin Feng asked.

"I have to work overtime; I took on a case," Li Huiying said.

Lin Feng planted a kiss on Li Huiying's cheek, "Just started the job and already have a case in hand, impressive!"

Li Huiying shook her head, "It's not a major case, just an assault case, very simple, only that it goes to court on Monday."

"There's a gathering tonight; do you want to go?" Lin Feng asked.

Li Huiying shook her head, "I don't want to go; if I go, you'll be uncomfortable. I'll just go home early."

As a woman from a wealthy family, she knows exactly what those tycoon gatherings are like.

She only hopes Brother Shang Xun won't act recklessly like those people.

Asking Brother Shang Xun not to go is impossible.

Li Huiying cupped Lin Feng's face and kissed him back, "Dear, I'm off to work!"

Only then did Lin Feng release her.

Washing her face, applying makeup, changing into her uniform—half an hour passed.

Lin Feng, having nothing else to do, drove Li Huiying to the Prosecutor's Office in Hancheng.

After work began, Li Huiying remained absent‑minded...

In the morning she pretended to be completely indifferent.

But in truth she was thinking a lot.

She has seen countless young masters of wealthy families; they were once of good character, but after attending gatherings they gradually changed.

Such circles are like a huge cesspool.

Once someone enters that circle, it won't be long before they turn into a clump of sludge that can never be cleaned.

But there's no choice; given Brother Shang Xun's status, he must attend such gatherings.

Otherwise he'd be an outlier and be shunned by other wealthy families.

After a hard slog, she finally made it to six o'clock, finished work, and arrived at the underground parking lot.

Approaching her sedan, the female Biao Biao opened the rear door.

Li Huiying didn't look inside the car, tossed her bag onto the rear seat, leaned sideways, and sat down gracefully.

Just as she sat down, before she could turn, someone grabbed her.

"Ah!"

Li Huiying let out a startled cry.

She was about to open her mouth, using her small canine to bite the hand that held her, when she realized it was Brother Shang Xun.

Her body instantly went limp.

"You didn't go to the gathering, did you?"

Li Huiying said with surprise.

Lin Feng brushed Li Huiying's nose tip, "If you're not happy, I won't go either."

"How could I not go?" Li Huiying shook her head.

Lin Feng tightened his fists, "Then accompany me; if you don't go, I won't go!"

Li Huiying had no choice but to agree.

Lin Feng chuckled, "The Prosecutor is going, but who knows if those guys will behave themselves."

Li Huiying shook her head and said, "Don't blame me; even if we went to the chief it's the same. No, the chief is part of their group."

After speaking, Li Huiying widened her eyes, "Ah! I have to change clothes!"

Lin Feng lifted a bag from his feet, "All set, let's change in the car!"

Li Huiying took the paper bag, opened it, and found a black evening gown, a conservative long dress.

In the car, besides her husband there was a female driver, and Li Huiying wasn't shy, quickly changing into the dress.

Lin Feng smiled and whispered in her ear, "Your posture while sitting in the car just now was elegant! But I reckon you'll look even more beautiful in that dress."

Li Huiying's figure was superb, with graceful curves, and from any angle she looked absolutely perfect.

Receiving praise from Brother Zhang Shangxun, Li Huiying blushed.

Going to the gathering, of course she had to make a show.

Shen Youzhen had already arranged everything.

While Li Huiying's black sedan was driving on the road, other cars quickly converged.

Three cars ahead, three behind, forming a convoy.

Half an hour later, the convoy stopped at the gate of a manor called "Xin Cheng Hui Guan."

From the outside it looked like a holiday hotel.

At the gate stood two rows of handsome men and beautiful women; when they saw a car arrive, they immediately stepped forward to attend.

"President Zhang, madam, please come inside!"

After Lin Feng and Li Huiying got out of the car, the young attendant in charge of reception smiled and said.

Lin Feng was not surprised that this young man knew him.

People in this circle, even if they haven't met him, have definitely seen his photo.

Can't help it, I'm too handsome, like a glittering piece of gold; no matter how you try to hide it, it shows.

After entering, Lin Feng glanced around and could easily tell that besides Han Country persons, there were also merchants from Guo Jia.

It seems this gathering is different from what he imagined.

Huh!

Lin Feng suddenly saw a familiar person.

And that familiar person also saw Lin Feng.

The person stared at Lin Feng with a shocked expression, as if seeing a ghost.

Who is this person?

Of course it's Tu Dou Xiong, whom Lin Feng had pinned down!

If he were in Yanjing, Lin Feng would have rushed forward without hesitation and made a few polite exchanges with Yang Yu.

But now, he suppressed his surprise well, pretended not to know Yang Yu, and averted his gaze.

At this moment, Yang Yu, pulling a Han Country friend beside him, pointed at Lin Feng and asked, "Who is this person?"

The Han Country friend introduced, "He is the newly appointed president of the Zhang Family, Zhang Shangxun…"

"So similar!"

Yang Yu frowned and said.
