Chapter 277: Chapter 282: Teaching a Lesson to a Bald Man_1

“Brother Feng, I just used your money to pay Chen San, so let’s put his thirty percent share under your name!” Inside the private room, Xie Nan spoke to Lin Feng while holding Chen San’s transfer agreement. Without waiting for Lin Feng’s reply, he signed Lin Feng’s name on the document.

It was a privately drawn-up agreement with Chen San’s original signature, which made it valid anyway.

Lin Feng initially wanted to refuse. However, he considered Xie Nan’s kindness and his current financial troubles; even if he didn’t want the shares, letting Xie Nan owe him hundreds of thousands wouldn’t feel right between brothers.

“If you’re giving me the shares, then don’t worry about the remaining four hundred fifty thousand,” Lin Feng said to Xie Nan, sipping his beer.

Lin Feng had brought two million with him. He had already given one million to Xie Nan for his needs, and now he was effectively using the other million to acquire this thirty percent stake. This meant Lin Feng was definitely taking a loss if the shares weren’t worth that much.

But Xie Nan was being generous, and as his brother, Lin Feng couldn’t be petty. Besides, the whole drama earlier that day was largely because Lin Feng had taken a million from Xie Nan the day before.

“It’s not that expensive… seven hundred fifty thousand would already be an inflated price for it!” Xie Nan chuckled and shook his head. “I’d be surprised if Chen San managed to get even half a million for his share!”

Xie Nan placed a money box in front of Lin Feng and said, “As long as the shares are in the hands of family, I can rest easy. You should keep this money, Brother Feng!”

“It’s precisely because you treat me like family that I can’t let you take a loss!” Lin Feng shook his head. Not wanting to argue further with Xie Nan, he opened the box. From the four hundred fifty thousand inside it, he took out three hundred thousand and handed it to Xie Nan, then closed the box. “Enough said. I’m investing in the bar at the original price of seven hundred fifty thousand. As for the extra fifty thousand, distribute it among the brothers for some tea, to help them settle their nerves.”

“Okay!” Since Lin Feng had put it that way, Xie Nan could only nod in agreement.

The surrounding Loyalty Gang brothers were overjoyed when they heard this. Brother Feng is so generous! they thought. He just handed out fifty thousand like it was nothing! Sticking with Brother Feng and Brother Nan means we’ll be well taken care of!

「Later that night…」

Business at the Fenghuo Bar began to boom. Lin Feng and Xie Nan sat in a corner booth, observing the bustling crowd with somewhat complicated feelings.

All these people coming and going… this is all money!

Lin Feng thought. More than half a year had passed since his rebirth, and he finally had his first business. For the first time, he felt a sense of having roots. He thought of his partners from his previous life, the members of the White Wolf Squad: Zhou Yang, Xiang Wang, Ling Yun, and Xue Qingyi. I wonder how they’re doing now? Are they still risking their lives for mission rewards?

Perhaps I could expand my business, find them, and get them to leave that life? Let them marry, have children, and retire like ordinary people?

This goal suddenly formed in Lin Feng’s mind, and he secretly pondered its feasibility.

Considering their spending habits, it would probably take assets in the billions to get them to settle down! The task seemed incredibly daunting. Lin Feng gave a wry smile, his gaze once again sweeping over the reveling men and women in the bar.

Suddenly, Lin Feng spotted a very familiar, graceful figure entering through the front door…

She wore a well-tailored, figure-hugging little black dress that perfectly showcased her stunning curves. Her shoulder-length hair, smoother than satin, cascaded down. Her delicate features and long-lashed, captivatingly bright eyes were mesmerizing. This drop-dead gorgeous, mature beauty was none other than Cao Ying—Lin Feng’s former senior high English teacher and now his senior fellow graduate student.

The moment Cao Ying entered, it was as if an incredibly bright lightbulb had been switched on in a dim corner teeming with moths; she instantly attracted countless stares and attempts at conversation.

“Hey beautiful, let me buy you a drink!”

“Beauty, can I get your number?”

“Come sit over here, sweetie…”

Countless leering men, whistling, crowded around Cao Ying, trying to get her attention.

Cao Ying, who seemed unused to such places, frowned deeply. She continued further into the bar, scanning her surroundings while ignoring the swarm of persistent admirers.

Noticing she was alone and, in their eyes, too timid to speak up, the men grew bolder. Most of them had been drinking, and the alcohol fueled their audacity, leading them to spout lewd remarks.

“Hey gorgeous, care to dance?”

“Come hang out with big brother. Name your price for the night!”

Some, even more brazen, started to reach for Cao Ying’s hand.

Xie Nan frowned as he watched the scene. He detested such situations, but normally, as long as things were consensual, he wouldn’t interfere. He had planned to wait; if the woman cried for help, he would send his men to drive away those wolves. But who would have guessed that the moment Lin Feng saw the woman, he would suddenly dart out…

Does Brother Feng also enjoy picking up women in bars? Xie Nan paused, stunned, then mumbled to himself, …I remember, his wife is quite pretty. Brother Feng shouldn’t be this desperate…!

SMACK! Lin Feng forcefully slapped away the hand that was about to touch Cao Ying.

Trying to take advantage of Cao Ying? You’re courting death! Lin Feng didn’t hold back with that slap. The bald man howled in pain, the back of his hand already swelling with five distinct red marks.

“What the fuck, punk! Who the hell do you think you are? Are you looking to die?!” Seeing Lin Feng’s clean-cut appearance, the bald man immediately started cursing. He reached out with his other hand, aiming to grab Lin Feng’s chest and shove him to the ground to teach him a lesson.

Lin Feng remained silent and slapped him again. SMACK! Now both of the bald man’s hands were swollen.

HISSS! Lin Feng’s second slap was even harder. The bald man was in too much pain to speak, only able to gasp sharply, sucking in cold air.

“Lin Feng…” Cao Ying spotted him, as if seeing her pillar of support. With a soft cry, she hurried over, clutching his arm and partly hiding behind him. The preceding scene had clearly terrified her.

“You damn brat, you’re looking for death!” Lin Feng’s two quick slaps injuring the bald man’s hands finally provoked the other four men at their table to stand up.

“What do you think you’re doing! Daring to disrespect Brother Feng? Are you looking for trouble?!” The Loyalty Gang members in Fenghuo Bar all knew Lin Feng was the new boss. Seeing him in a confrontation with customers, a dozen of them immediately swarmed over and surrounded the five troublemakers.

However, recognizing they were customers, the Loyalty Gang members refrained from physical violence, merely intimidating them.

Once the five men realized Lin Feng was not someone to be trifled with, they could only shoot him a few resentful glares before sheepishly settling their bill and leaving.

「A little later…」

“Lin Feng, they call you Brother Feng… You haven’t fallen in with some gang and become an enforcer, have you?!” Cao Ying stared at Lin Feng with a worried expression, asking anxiously. She knew he was skilled in combat and worried that he might have been lured by money or deceived into going down the wrong path.

“Teacher Cao, Sister Cao, my dear wife…” Lin Feng playfully switched between the three titles before chuckling. “Do I look like a bad guy to you?”

The words “my dear wife” made Cao Ying blush crimson. She recalled the half-joking promise she’d made to Lin Feng: if he earned a billion, she would marry him…

Cao Ying suppressed her shyness, looked at Lin Feng intently for a moment, then said softly, “You don’t just look like a bad guy… you are one.”

“Well, if you insist, I can’t argue. After all, at home, the wife always has the final say!” Lin Feng said with a laugh. “Speaking of which, I haven’t asked you yet. What are you doing sneaking into a place like this all by yourself?”
