Chapter 351 - Country b.u.mpkins
At Jiang Prefecture's Riverside Club, the third floor's main hall was filled with cups that were crisscrossing each other. It was a lively yet calm atmosphere.
Although there were dozens of people talking back and forth in the hall, it didn't seem noisy at all. On the contrary, it was rather pleasant. Everyone present was very conscious, and when they spoke, no one seemed to shout loudly like they were in a market.
These people were all well-known figures. Even if they had to stay in the market, they would not dare to shout!
Among these people, there were quite a few waiters moving back and forth. They dragged their plates, walking up and down in an observant manner, and whenever they saw someone's wine cup was empty, or someone's need for a drink, or an ashtray, those waiters would go over and help them with these needs and troubles.
Upon seeing this sight, Ji Feng couldn't help but nod his head. Needless to say, it's been more than a year since he last came here. Li Weidong sure did a good job. At least, the quality of the waiters and the organization of this venue are pretty good.
I'm afraid this isn't Li Weidong's doing!
Ji Feng couldn't help but shake his head and smile. In his eyes, Li Weidong might not have the ability to do so.
It looked like someone was helping Li Weidong.
But very quickly, Ji Feng cast this thought aside. What Li Weidong's club was up to really had nothing to do with him. Most importantly, he had to find that Chang Chongwei first!
However, Ji Feng had another plan in mind.
He felt that finding Chang Chongwei first might not be a good idea. If he could separate He Hongwei and Chang Chongwei and find them separately, he could hear some different things from their mouths.
Even … He could even find some clues.
Actually, this was not that important anymore. Regardless of how much Chang Chongwei's a.s.sa.s.sination a few days ago was related to, Ji Feng was determined to deal with this person.
He was certain that the group of people at the entrance of the amus.e.m.e.nt park had something to do with Chang Chongwei. Especially those two from the special forces. If they were not under Chang Chongwei's control, then they were either the doing so by He Hongwei. In any case, one of them was definitely involved.
Thus, other than the fact that Ji Feng wanted to make a move on Chang Chongwei, what he cared about the most was the relationship between He Yingguo and this matter!
There were only a few dozen people in the hall, and it was very large as well. There were very few people, so it wasn't hard to find a single person. Very quickly, Ji Feng saw two familiar silhouettes.
It was a man and a woman. The man was not even thirty years old. From his appearance, he did look like a talent. At the very least, he was quite handsome.
As for the woman, she was also slightly over twenty years old and appeared to be slightly younger than the man.
She was also a beautiful woman, and her appearance was very outstanding. Especially when she wore a purplish black dress that revealed her back. It gave her an awe-inspiring feeling, attracting the gazes of many men.
These two people were none other than the owner of this place, Li Weidong, and his sister, Li Ruonian!
"Tsk tsk …" Ji Feng couldn't help but shake his head. He really couldn't tell. Every time he saw that Li Ruo Nan he called a female tyrannosaur, there would be a significant change.
As she grew older, she became more and more feminine and the fiery hot scent on her lessened.
Of course, Ji Feng suspected that perhaps it was because she and Li Weidong were the owners of the venue today that she had to put on such an elegant and fashionable lady appearance to entertain the guests.
At this time, Li Ruo Nan and Li Weidong were together, greeting some people beside them with a smile. Their movements were elegant, and their expressions were calm and warm.
Ji Feng couldn't help but sigh. Everyone was changing quickly. Even the hot-tempered Li Ruo Nan was able to become such a lady!
Ji Feng slightly shook his head and smiled. He shifted his gaze and continued to search the hall. He saw a few familiar faces, including Han Zhong's father and a few other CEO of a company that had business with the Xiao Clan's Pharmaceutical Factory.
Since Ji Feng did not often show his face in the company, the bosses did not recognize him. Coincidentally, Ji Feng was looking for He Hui and Chang Chongwei, so he did not say anything.
However, even after Ji Feng's gaze swept the hall once more, he still could not see Chang Chongwei and He Yingguo. It was as though the two of them were not here at all. However, Ji Feng did see He Hongqiang, the younger brother. This guy was joking with a very s.e.xy lady. He saw that the woman also wanted to refuse and yet welcomed him. He Hongqiang was laughing evilly.
Ji Feng couldn't help but raise his eyebrows. Isn't this a business salon gathering? When did it become a blind date?
Moreover, he felt that the woman who was flirting with He Hongqiang was also very familiar. It was as if he had seen her somewhere before but no matter how hard he thought about it, he couldn't recall where.
He shook his head and strode over.
"He Hongqiang!" Ji Feng walked up to He Hongqiang and addressed him directly by his name. The latter was momentarily stunned. Turning around, he discovered that the one who called him was actually Ji Feng. A strange expression instantly flashed across his face.
"You … Looking for me? " He Hongqiang forcefully squeezed out a smile and asked.
Even Ji Feng didn't care about his expression. In his heart, although He Hongqiang was older than him, he was still just a junior. Ji Feng was on the same level as He Hui, and this He Hongqiang was just a child …
He asked directly, "Where is your brother?"
"Upstairs in the private room." He Hongqiang pointed to the ceiling.
Ji Feng was slightly startled. The main hall was divided into two layers. Did that depend on one's status?
"Go and call him down. Tell him that I'm looking for him!" Ji Feng said.
"..." When He Hongqiang heard Ji Feng's childish tone, the veins on his forehead jumped a few times. But when he saw Ji Feng's matter-of-course look, and recalled how Ji Feng had kicked him away with a single kick … He Hong forcefully suppressed the anger in his heart.
"Go on!" Ji Feng frowned.
"... Ji Feng, you should go upstairs. The rooms there are more private and quiet. " He Hongqiang took a few deep breaths as he was afraid that he would be angered. The guy in front of him was a b.a.s.t.a.r.d! Didn't they hear that the third son of the Ji Clan was like a wolf or a tiger?
Fighting between the popinjays usually involved someone who had a tough fist and took advantage of the situation. Ordinary family members would not step in, so He Hongqiang wisely chose to give in.
A wise man does not fight when the odds are against him. This was what the Old Ancestor had said; it was not shameful at all!
He Hongqiang comforted himself in his heart.
"No need, go and call your brother down first. I have some matters to discuss with him alone, hurry up!" Ji Feng waved his hand.
"h.e.l.lo, who are you? It wouldn't be good to talk to him like this, right? " Before He Hongqiang could say anything, the woman with a personality beside him spoke up. However, her tone was long and slow, and her tone was full of warning.
Ji Feng faintly smiled, ignoring her.
"You …" The woman was just about to speak when He Hongqiang interrupted her.
"Shut up!" He Hongqiang growled, "Scram for me again, do you hear me?!"
"Young Master He …" The woman was astonished. She had been defending He Shaoyang's dignity, why did he reprimand her? This woman was a little confused.
"Do you want me to repeat it?" He Hongqiang asked.
"That's enough, stop trying to act cool towards women. Hurry up and go, don't waste time here!" Ji Feng frowned.
He Hongqiang was like a rooster that had lost a battle as he nodded helplessly. "Wait a moment!"
Then, he said to the woman, "Pay attention when you speak!"
With that, he quickly turned and went upstairs.
The woman's face alternated between green and white, constantly changing between different colors. However, the gaze she used to look at Ji Feng was no longer as arrogant as before. It was obvious that she was aware of Ji Feng's extraordinary status.
"This handsome brother, my tone just now wasn't too good. Please don't mind me." The woman became faster and immediately giggled as she said, "I wonder what I should call you, handsome?"
Ji Feng smiled but didn't say anything. He had nothing to say to such a woman.
She pursed her lips into a smile and said, "Handsome, I have a concert in the Jiang Prefecture Gymnasium in a week's time. If Handsome is free, I hope that you can come and support me."
As she spoke, she retrieved a name card from somewhere and pa.s.sed it to Ji Feng.
Out of politeness, Ji Feng accepted it. On it was written: Tianfeng Entertainment, Liu Mei. Below was a series of numbers.
"You … Is he a singer? " Ji Feng asked hesitantly.
"... That's right, it seems like handsome brother doesn't really care about the matters of the entertainment industry! " Liu Mei had a strange expression. Who wouldn't know him?
"If handsome brother can spare the time, just call me. There will definitely be a good spot for you …" Liu Mei said.
"Mm, I'll go take a look when I have time!" Ji Feng said.
Ji Feng did not expect this woman to be a singer. There were actually female celebrities who came to a.s.sist in this business salon?
When he thought of this woman flirting with He Hongqiang, Ji Feng couldn't help but shake his head. Why did the celebrities nowadays all look like ghosts …?
As he was speaking, Ji Feng saw the two brothers walk down the stairs. He apologized to Liu Mei and turned to leave.
"Country b.u.mpkin!" Looking at Ji Feng's back, Liu Mei silently cursed.
But in the next moment, she was stunned.
The country b.u.mpkin that she spoke of arrived at the staircase and just happened to meet He Hongqiang and He Honggang who were walking down the stairs. Soon after that, she saw He Hongqiang's face reveal a brilliant smile, he first shook hands with the country b.u.mpkin, then he pa.s.sionately hugged him.
Was he really a b.u.mpkin?
Liu Mei felt like her face was burning. Perhaps he simply didn't put her and the others in his eyes, so she didn't pay attention to him. Actually, they should be the real b.u.mpkins …
