Chapter 1283: Some Things to Take Care Of

~7 min read 1,313 words

"I have some things to take care of in Modu." Chen Yu smiled.

He didn't have much of an impression of this guy; he only remembered that once, in order to go drinking with him, he hadn't even cared that his own wife was sick.

As for the kind of person someone who used to hang out with him could be, he didn't want to say much about his character, but it was true that this guy was loyal.

If one had to talk about flaws, everyone had flaws; this guy's flaw was that he liked to brag everywhere, and he was the type who did it without even drafting it first.

"Are you here in the big city looking for opportunities because you couldn't make it back home?" Li Feng walked to Chen Yu's side with a chuckle and said, "I wanted to bring you along when I left back then, but you had a wife and didn't want to go."

"I only realized after coming here that there are many opportunities in this place; after all, it's a big city. Look at me now, I'm a leader in this clubhouse, managing a group of underlings—it's as impressive as it gets."

"Not bad." Chen Yu nodded slightly.

"Are you trying to go in?" Li Feng saw Chen Yu.

"Brother Feng, he's here to see our President Zhou, but we don't know him," a bodyguard said.

"You've heard of Wen Ge too? Are you here now to join Wen Ge?" Li Feng looked at Chen Yu in surprise, then said nonchalantly, "Then you should have contacted me earlier."

"My boss is someone close to Wen Ge; he manages this clubhouse on Wen Ge's behalf. Come on, I'll take you to meet him."

Li Feng was a person who liked to brag, and he cared about face and loved pageantry, and here, he was indeed respected by people.

As he led Chen Yu inside, no matter who saw him, they would respectfully call out "Brother Feng."

"Haha, brother, look at how I'm doing here? The old me was ignorant, drinking and gambling—I was basically a piece of trash. But look at me now, don't I live well?"

"I only know now that if you want to win other people's respect, you must first succeed yourself; relying on anyone is not as good as relying on yourself." This guy taught Chen Yu as he walked: "Buddy, your idea of coming out to make a living now is the right one."

"We were all the same in the past; in the eyes of our families, we were flies, and no one looked up to us."

"But now, when I go home, the people in my hometown line the streets to welcome me. Not for any other reason, but because I've made something of myself here, so they respect me."

"In the past, I always felt that others didn't give me any face, but now I know that face is something you earn for yourself."

"Mm, it's very good that you can grasp this point," Chen Yu nodded slightly and said, "You certainly have a future."

"You came here to find Wen Ge—are you looking to work with him?" After Li Feng finished bragging, he finally thought to ask what Chen Yu's purpose for coming here was.

Chen Yu gave an "en" sound and didn't say anything, while Li Feng laughed loudly from the side: "Brother, you're being a bit aggressive here."

"Aggressive? How so?" Chen Yu turned his head back, puzzled.

"Do you not know who Wen Ge is? Here in Modu, he is one of the major powers, and even the famous Buddha Lord has to give him a bit of face."

"There are tons of people who want to work for Wen Ge now, but it's really rare to see someone like you directly seeking a recommendation to Wen Ge," Li Feng said. "I'm not mocking you, brother, but you really can't do it."

"You should be steady and grounded, start as an underling like I did, and rely on your own strength to climb up. I'm highly regarded by the clubhouse manager now; sooner or later, I'll become Wen Ge's trusted aide."

"Thank you, that's a very good suggestion, I will consider it carefully." Chen Yu smiled slightly.

This guy had misunderstood him, but he didn't point it out; after all, they were people who used to drink and brag together.

Now that he felt he was doing better and was stronger than before, let him brag a bit.

"How about I introduce you to my boss? Don't worry, with my recommendation, he will definitely value you. As long as you dare to fight and strive, you'll definitely make it," Li Feng said.

"No need, thank you, Li Feng. You have indeed changed quite a bit over these years," Chen Yu laughed, "But I really do have other matters to attend to here."

"So I won't talk to you much more. Let's exchange contact information and chat when we meet again later. It's quite hard to run into someone from back home here in Modu."

"You really have business here? You're not looking for Wen Ge?" Li Feng was slightly stunned, not having reacted yet.

"I am here to see Wen Ge, but I'm not looking to join him; rather, he invited me here," Chen Yu smiled slightly.

"Are you serious, brother?" Li Feng looked at Chen Yu; he wanted to see if Chen Yu was joking with him.

"I am very serious," Chen Yu said with a straight face, "Do I look like I'm joking?"

"Haha, buddy, stop kidding, it's not funny, it's really not funny at all," Li Feng laughed loudly.

"You think I'm joking?" Chen Yu asked.

"Otherwise?" Li Feng said dismissively, "You don't know what kind of status Wen Ge has, do you?"

"I know. You've mentioned Wen Ge's status more than once. I can tell you seriously that I am clear on Wen Ge's status."

"I also know he is one of the major powers, and I also know his relationship with the Buddha Lord is very close."

"But I am here this time because he truly invited me. There is no mistake about that, so please don't keep going on about Wen Ge; it really has no meaning to me."

"Haha, haven't seen you in years, and you've learned how to joke," Li Feng laughed loudly. He still didn't believe Chen Yu's words; he thought Chen Yu was just joking with him.

"Mr. Chen, you've arrived. I'm very sorry I'm a step late. Did the staff at the entrance give you any trouble?" Zhou Wen hurried over.

"Not at all," Chen Yu smiled slightly, "The people at the entrance were very enthusiastic; they didn't give me any trouble."

"That's good. Mr. Chen, please follow me this way." Zhou Wen still had a respectful expression as he led Chen Yu forward.

"Oh, right, this is a friend I used to hang out with; he works here now," Chen Yu pointed at Li Feng, who had long been standing there in a daze, and said, "Please take care of him in the future, President Zhou."

"Yes, yes, of course. Your name is Li Feng?" Zhou Wen glanced at Li Feng.

"Yes, President Zhou, my name is Li Feng, and I work here now," Li Feng nodded hurriedly.

"Have someone take him under their wing; from now on, he is a supervisor here," Zhou Wen said quickly.

"Yes." An underling behind Zhou Wen nodded repeatedly, then took Li Feng away.

"Brother, that person just now... Chen Yu, who is he? Why is President Zhou's attitude toward him so good?" It wasn't until the two of them left that Li Feng reacted.

"Aren't you his old playmate? You don't know who he is?" The underling leading him asked with some surprise.
