Chapter 96: Who Can Outwit Whom

The young man was stunned by Lin Feng's two slaps.

Zhao Xiaoyang gave him no chance to resist and kicked him down to the ground.

The security guard only reacted at this point and hurried to separate the people on both sides.

A middle‑aged security guard shouted: "Everyone, you've shouted, you've hit, both sides are even. Can we have a proper talk? This late‑night anger hurts the liver; let's be calm and reasonable…"

While the middle‑aged guard was persuading, the young man was helped to his feet by his female companion.

At this moment, clear finger marks could be seen on both of his cheeks.

Lin Feng's two blows still had force; otherwise he would have given the guy a concussion outright.

The young man rubbed his slightly swollen face, pointed at Lin Feng and shouted, "You think you have more people? I have more people than you!"

After saying that, he pulled out his phone and dialed.

Both of his hands kept trembling.

The middle‑aged guard shouted, "Stop! If you keep causing trouble, will you? Believe it or not, we'll call the police; you can go to the precinct to discuss it!"

Hearing the guard say they would call the police, the young man frowned and halted.

The guard's mention of calling the police gave him a way out.

After putting the phone down, and with his companion giving him a look, he let out a dissatisfied snort and set the phone down again.

Lin Feng pointed at the white Volkswagen parked in his spot and said calmly, "We can talk peacefully, but first move the car out. There are so many parking spaces over there; why occupy my spot?"

However, the two ignored him and turned away.

When they reached the elevator entrance, the woman turned back and sneered, "If you've got the guts, crash again! If you don't smash my car, you're cowards! Yours is a BMW, mine is a Volkswagen; let's see whose loss is greater!"

After speaking, she also locked the door leading to the elevator shaft.

Then the two knelt on the rear side, watching the garage through the iron fence.

"Key!"

Lin Feng extended his hand toward Zhu Li.

Zhu Li immediately took the car key from her handbag and handed it to Lin Feng.

Lin Feng got into the car and drove it out of the parking space.

Then he said to Zhu Li and Zhao Xiaoyang, "Get in!"

Zhu Li briskly opened the passenger‑side door and sat down.

She was excited; she was about to witness a very violent scene.

Zhao Xiaoyang didn't think twice and took a seat in the back row.

The security guard beside them exchanged puzzled looks, not knowing how to block them.

As long as no other owner's car is damaged, go ahead and crash!

But Lin Feng floored the accelerator and drove the car away.

Zhu Li was puzzled.

Zhao Xiaoyang also wore a puzzled expression.

After the car left the residential complex, Lin Feng exhaled and said calmly, "We almost capsized in a ditch."

"Brother, what does that mean?"

Zhao Xiaoyang heard an unusual implication in Lin Feng's tone.

Lin Feng sneered, "Someone's scheming against us! Didn't you smell a strong gasoline odor inside that Volkswagen?"

"Ah! This…"

Zhu Li turned pale with shock.

Zhao Xiaoyang then realized, "Brother, after you said that, I think I saw the car leaking oil; there's a gasoline smell, but it isn't very strong."

Lin Feng, while driving, said calmly, "A minor impact isn't a big deal; a severe impact would cause the car to explode.

Car accidents can lead to fires; after such an incident, the investigation would find that the Volkswagen had been over‑filled with fuel.

Then, after being struck by the BMW, mechanical friction would generate sparks that ignite the gasoline, causing an explosion that engulfs the BMW as well…"

When Lin Feng finished speaking, Zhao Xiaoyang broke out in cold sweat.

Zhu Li then also realized, her face terrified, "You mean someone wants to harm me!?"

Lin Feng shook his head, "It's not you; they're targeting me. If I'm correct, these two only recently rented in this complex, right?"

Zhu Li recalled and nodded, "Seems so; all residents here have cars, and that car was only parked there a couple of days ago."

Zhao Xiaoyang said, "With a design like that, the success rate isn't high, is it?"

Lin Feng laughed, "The plan is quite clever! First step: occupy the parking spot with the car, create a conflict with Zhu Li, and then seize the chance to slap Zhu Li.

Zhu Li would definitely call me, and then I'd show up. The most classic line is what that woman said: 'If you've got the guts, crash again! If you don't smash my car, you're cowards.'

I have money; I don't even regard a car worth a few hundred thousand.

To make a good show in front of Zhu Li, to vent for her, I might even drive Zhu Li's BMW and ram that car wildly… The odds of that are over twenty percent!"

After saying that, Lin Feng eased off the accelerator and parked the car by the roadside.

Then he said to Zhao Xiaoyang, "Take a ride back, find a few brothers and investigate the guy I beat up, as well as that woman."

"Alright, brother!"

Zhao Xiaoyang got out of the car.

"Don't go back to the gym; find a place to stay and call someone."

Zhao Xiaoyang nodded.

Lin Feng drove the car away.

Zhao Xiaoyang didn't block the car directly; instead, he walked a long way, saw a taxi pull up, dropped off two passengers, and then got in.

It wasn't only Zhao Xiaoyang; even Zhu Li felt a thick, terrifying aura.

Lin Feng glanced at Zhu Li, whose face was full of worry, and laughed, "You've been watching too much TV! Any conspiratorial trail requires a long period of observation and planning."

"This time, let's not discuss whether it's a coincidence; if someone really plotted against me, it would already be a failure."

Zhu Li nodded.

Lin Feng drove the car into the Jinhu Huayuan residential complex.

He parked downstairs, took the elevator up to the 17th floor.

At the doorway of apartment 1706, Zhu Li rang the doorbell.

By now Wen Keke is probably already asleep!

Sure enough, after the doorbell rang, no one opened the door for a long while.

Zhu Li picked up her phone again and called Wen Keke.

The call connected, "Zhu Li, it's almost eleven at night, you're still not asleep!"

"Lazybones, get up and open the door! I'm right outside your door!"

Zhu Li shouted.

Wen Keke hung up, and within a minute the door opened.

Wen Keke, dressed in pink pajamas, appeared before Lin Feng's eyes.

Wen Keke had just seen only Zhu Li through the peephole, and didn't expect Lin Feng to be there as well.

"You two… why did you come to my place?"

Wen Keke said in surprise.

Zhu Li said helplessly, "The door lock is broken, we can't open it, so we have to stay here for the night."

While speaking, Lin Feng and Zhu Li entered the house and changed shoes.

Wen Keke took two cans of drink from the fridge, handed them to Lin Feng and Zhu Li, and said, "My parents just left, and a few blankets haven't been washed yet; if you don't mind…"

"I'll sleep on the sofa!"

Lin Feng replied calmly.

Zhu Li laughed, "I'll share a bed with you. Speaking of when we were housemates, we never slept together before, right?"

"We did! You forgot? That time you were on your period and stained the sheets…"

Before the sentence could finish, Wen Keke shut her mouth.

Speaking that in front of Lin Feng seemed a bit inappropriate.

For a while they couldn't sleep well, and Wen Keke and Zhu Li talked about work matters.

Lin Feng touched his own body.

No cigarettes.

Wen Keke took a pack of Huazi cigarettes from under the coffee table, opened it, and gave a pack to Lin Feng.

It was clearly prepared for Lin Feng.

In other words, she is ready for Lin Feng to come over and stay at any time.

At the end of this month, Wen Keke will be transferred by Queen Liang Shishi to serve as an assistant at the subordinate's agency.

Although called an assistant, the role actually manages the stars signed with the company.

Most newly signed stars have no personal manager, so managing them carries considerable power.

Because the assistant reports directly to Liang Shishi, calling it an assistant is less accurate than saying it's a department manager.

As for Zhu Li, she also got a promotion.

She will be transferred to the administration department as a manager.

Her position was upgraded, her salary doubled to about 300,000 yuan per year, not counting bonuses.

Lin Feng laughed, "Congratulations, you two! You've finally made a breakthrough. Keep working hard; if the company develops well, they might even allocate shares to you. Once the company goes public, you'll both be little rich ladies!"

Wen Keke nodded, looking full of vigor.

Zhu Li only gave a faint smile.

She knows that her and Wen Keke's promotions are both because of Lin Feng.

At the same time.

In a ward of Ronald Hospital.

Secretary Wang frowned and put down the phone.

Looking at Wu Changxiong lying on the hospital bed, Secretary Wang shook her head, "Chairman, Lin Feng didn't fall for it."

Wu Changxiong said regretfully, "What a pity! This time it failed, we must have already alerted them, right?"

Secretary Wang replied, "We don't know yet, but Lin Feng seemed alert and drove away immediately."

Wu Changxiong sneered, "So he discovered something; next we'll have a good fight with him and see who can outwit whom."
