Chapter 24: A new movement in the Wu Clan!
"We're finally done!"
Zhang Lei stretched lazily with an extremely relaxed expression, "Madman, after this incident, I think Zhao Kai will definitely follow you without a shred of hesitation. This kid is definitely a pretty good Kobold Chieftain!"
In reality, Zhang Lei didn't understand Zhao Kai too much, and he didn't interact much with Zhao Kai either.
However, with just that limited contact, Zhang Lei could tell that Zhao Kai was definitely someone with brains and wits. Also, perhaps because he was born into a clan, it caused Zhao Kai to have an extremely long line of vision and extraordinary experience in many situations.
If such a person really wanted to scheme something, it would definitely be hard for him to guard against.
However, when Ji Feng heard this, he shook his head and said, "Right now, I'm not that much of a threat. If I only consider Zhao Kai to be a high ranking military advisor, there's no need for me to trouble myself to save him. I treat him as a friend!"
Zhang Lei nodded and said, "I can tell!"
If he didn't treat Zhao Kai as a friend, why would Ji Feng be in such a hurry?
Because he wanted to go to America, he couldn't go to Zhao Kai's hometown, so he let himself go …
"But to be honest, Zhao Kai is really a good helper!" Zhang Lei said, "Crazy, if you bring him along, it would be much easier to fight against the Wu family."
"It would be great if we could work together in the future. If not, there's no need to force it!" Although he also wished that Zhao Kai could help him, he did not wish to force Zhao Kai. Else, there would be no meaning in doing so.
"Hey!"
Zhang Lei chuckled, "Didn't you see Zhao Kai's expression when you were in Hucheng City? In the future, you might not even be able to chase him away! "
Ji Feng smiled and didn't say anything more.
Zhang Lei understood what he meant and said, "Madman, I can't let you do this. Friends are friends, servants are people, you have to treat these two things separately, otherwise, you'll be in chaos, unless you don't want to develop any further!"
Ji Feng laughed, "I will pay attention."
Zhang Lei suddenly said, "But come to think of it, you do have quite the good impression towards your friends. In fact, it's because of your good judgement that I found you pleasing to the eye when I was in the same cla.s.s as you..."
Ji Feng: "..."
When he thought back to that desolate time, Ji Feng suddenly realized that, at some point in time, when he thought about that time, the feelings he had in his heart were no longer humiliation or indignation, but a faint warmth.
"I have good eyes!" Ji Feng said as he glanced at Tong Lei, who was sitting in the front pa.s.senger seat.
"Are you talking about me?" Zhang Lei asked.
"What do you think?"
Zhang Lei: "... Just pretend I didn't ask. "
The car burst into laughter.
… ….
After arriving at Beijing, Ji Feng separated from the Zhang siblings. It was really because of their family matters. Plus, they hadn't been home for such a long time, so they had to go back to explain the situation.
Seeing that it was almost noon, Zhang Lei wanted to have a few drinks with Ji Feng. After all, after working so hard for so long, he was finally able to relax. Drinking a few cups with the two brothers was a kind of enjoyment.
However, Tong Lei reminded her on the side that Zhang Lei hadn't been home for almost ten days and had to go back as well.
Helpless, Zhang Lei could only scratch his head and leave.
"Ding … …"
As soon as Ji Feng and Bai Zhu got into the taxi, his phone rang. Ji Feng took it out and saw that it was his uncle calling. He could not help but shake his head and smile bitterly.
His phone was running out of battery!
Perhaps after the cellphone was taken away from Hai Zhou's interrogation room, the police officer checked his phone... Ji Feng quickly picked up the phone, "h.e.l.lo, Little Uncle, do you have any instructions? "My phone is almost out of battery …"
Ji Zhenping's voice sounded, "Brat, you must be in Yan Jing now, right? Come straight to the courtyard. It's almost time to eat. "
Ji Feng was startled. "Go to grandfather's place?"
"That's right. The old man knew you'd come back today, so he asked for a family dinner together. Also, your aunt's family is here as well!" Ji Zhenping said.
"Good!" I'll go over right now! " Ji Feng nodded in agreement.
After getting off the phone, Ji Feng told the taxi driver the address of the old man's courtyard. The taxi seemed to be shocked, "Sir, I can't go to the place you were talking about. I need a pa.s.s!"
Ji Feng laughed, "You can just leave me by the side of the road."
Only then did the driver feel relieved. While he was driving, he kept looking at Ji Feng in the mirror. It was unknown what he was thinking.
Ji Feng saw and ignored them. He knew that almost all of the taxi drivers in Yan Jing were talkative. It would be interesting to talk to them, but it was impossible to relax.
It was unknown if it was due to the fact that Ji Feng's address had deterred the driver, but the driver did not say anything along the way. Instead, they smoothly arrived at the road near the old man's courtyard.
The warriors guarding inside and outside the courtyard all knew Ji Feng, so there was no need to check what was inside. Ji Feng and the white pearl directly entered the courtyard.
"San'er, over here!"
Just as he entered the courtyard, Ji Feng heard his second brother, Ji Shalei's voice. He immediately turned towards the voice and saw Ji Shalei standing at the entrance of the gatehouse, waving at him.
There were a few people standing next to Ji Shaorei. They were his eldest brother, Ji Shaodong, and Ji Shaohong. Next to them was Ji Shaoyang.
Man, almost all the important young men of the third generation of the Ji Clan were here.
Of course, there were still quite a few people in the third generation, but the others were either still young, unable to make it to the top, or … Only towards brothers like Ji Feng, they had a few thoughts, but no one was able to get together. For example, Ji Shaoyu, but none of them appeared.
Ji Shaohong and Ji Shaoru, on the other hand, had a similar opinion of Ji Feng and Ji Shaodong. However, they were much more mature than Ji Shaoyu and his group.
From the actions of Ji Shaohong's group, they realized that no matter how much they fought, they were still one family. If they were united, then they were strong. If there was internal strife, then they were just a pile of sand!
After suffering at the hands of the Wu family, Ji Shaohong must have realized this point better than anyone else.
"I've been waiting for you!" Ji Feng walked over with the white pearl. Ji Shalei immediately laughed and said, "How was it? Did everything go smoothly?"
"It's done!" Ji Feng nodded.
"Didn't I say it before? If Little Feng were to come out, nothing difficult would happen!" Ji Shaohong laughed as he spoke.
Ji Feng smiled as he waved his hands.
"Alright, don't stand at the door. Come sit in the room!" Eldest Brother Ji Shaodong asked, "Is this Miss Bai?" Come in as well, we are not outsiders! "
"Yes sir!"
Bai Zhu's face turned slightly red. He didn't know what Ji Shaodong meant by 'not an outsider'.
The room was filled with young people, so naturally, there were some who were joking around. Ji Feng only smiled as he listened to the conversation of the people around him, occasionally interrupting with a few words.
Ji Shaodong and his brothers had not been in the capital for a long time. On the other hand, Ji Shaoyang had been in Beijing the entire time. Most of the time, he was the one talking about the news.
Of course, the news that Ji Shaoyan was talking about was not about national affairs. It was about something new in the circle.
For example, who was the young master of a certain family in conflict with, or what had happened to a certain person... Ji Shaoyang was a businessman, and he was well-informed. Therefore, he knew quite a lot of things. It was quite interesting to talk about them.
"That's right, have you heard? What kind of trick did the Martial family's eldest son come up with? He said that he wanted to be engaged to the daughter of the Yao family in the northeast." Ji Shao-jun suddenly mentioned the Wu family.
"Oh?!"
Ji Shaorei chuckled, "Wu Zhizhong still has the face to get married?" "He can even throw sewage onto his own brother, does he not feel the slightest bit of guilt?"
Back then, the Wu Clan suffered a huge loss at the hands of Ji Feng, and the Second Brother of the Wu Clan also suffered a huge loss at the hands of Ji Feng. In the end, he was frightened to death … Of course, in the eyes of the Wu family and those who were closer to them, Wu Zhihe was forced to death by Ji Feng.
This matter had already spread throughout the circle, even among the families. The Second Brother of the Wu family had become the laughing stock, and Wu Zhizhong's prestige had also dropped by quite a bit.
When Ji Feng heard this, he couldn't help but raise his eyebrows and ask, "It's very normal for Wu Zhizhong's engagement to come to light. How did it become news?"
"The news isn't about Wu Zhiyong, it's about his engagement partner!" Ji Shaohong took over and said, "I've also heard about this matter. That Yao family's influence in the Northeast is not small."
"Oh?"
Ji Feng asked, "Tell me about it?"
Ji Shaohong said, "The northeast is the old industrial base in China. It used to be an important industrial town, but now it has declined a lot. But it's still powerful. Do you know that?"
Ji Feng nodded, "I've heard of it. Could it be that the Yao family has great influence over there?"
"That's right!" The Yao family's influence in the Northeast is not small. Even the military and political businesses have a significant influence. Although they don't appear to be the Wealthy Cla.s.s, they still have a lot of power in the upper echelons! " Ji Shaohong said, "The one who is getting engaged to Wu Zhizhong this time is the youngest daughter of the current head of the Yao family, her name is Yao Yueran."
Ji Shaoyan immediately said, "Speaking of which, this Yao Yueran is really pretty. I've seen many famous celebrities, and even though I have signed many famous celebrities in my company, Yao Yueran isn't inferior to them at all …" "Well, she's as pretty as this Miss Bai!"
White Pearl's expression did not change as she pretended not to hear him.
Ji Shaohong glared at Ji Shaoyan as he thought, "That playboy has gotten himself into trouble again." Since Ji Feng was able to bring this girl here, it meant that he valued her a lot.
"Actually, it doesn't matter whether Yao Yueran is beautiful or not. The most important thing is that the marriage between the Wu Clan and the Yao Clan is very eye-catching!" Ji Shaodong opened his mouth. "Now that the Wu family has occupied the southern and southern provinces, if we were to extend our tentacles to the northeast …"
