Chapter 173 - Agreement with Rong Peng
Rong Peng and Rong Luo Yan cried out in alarm at the same time.
The father and daughter pair stared at Ji Feng in astonishment, especially Rong Luo Yan. Her beautiful eyebrows creased as she asked, "Ji Feng, are you joking?"
Ji Feng laughed, "Of course not. I came here today specifically to invite uncle to come with me. How could I joke around with such a matter?"
Rong Luo Yan's beautiful eyes opened wide. "So that's what you really think?"
Ji Feng nodded, "That's right."
Rong Luo Yan couldn't help but say, "You know that we just left Nanyue and that all of our a.s.sets have been moved to Jiangzhou. Now, we have nothing to do with you, but in the end, you want my father to jump into that whirlpool? Young Master, you don't have to be like this! "
Rong Peng, who was at the side, secretly patted his daughter on the back. He was hinting for her to not be so stiff when talking to Ji Feng.
After all, Ji Feng's ident.i.ty was there, and his relationship with his family was not that close.
In the past, when Rong Luo Yan and Wu Zhi were together, Rong Peng's family was polite and courteous with Wu Zhi and Wu Zhiqiang. What's more, now Ji Feng and Rong Luo Yan were only friends?
If Ji Feng became unhappy, it might affect their relationship.
However, Rong Luo Yan didn't care about that at all. She didn't want to care either. After all, what Ji Feng did was wrong. She wanted to say it, but she didn't care.
More importantly, for some reason, Rong Luo Yan realized that she wasn't afraid of offending Ji Feng at all. On the contrary, she wanted to go against him... This feeling caused Rong Luo Yan's heart to be in a state of panic.
However, people tended to be like this. The more guilty they were, the tougher they acted on the surface. It was called trying to put on a brave front while feeling weak on the inside … Even those with high acting skills would feel weak when they had no confidence in their abilities.
Therefore, Rong Luo Yan said with a vicious tone: "Young Master, you aren't thinking of using my father as cannon fodder to go to the southern and southern provinces to attract firepower, and then do something else to cover yourself, are you?"
"How is this possible!"
Ji Feng couldn't help but be taken aback as he shook his head and laughed, "Do you think I'm that kind of person?"
Rong Su Yan curled her lips. "That's hard to say. I don't know much about you, so who knows what kind of person you are … …"
"Pure Yan!" What are you saying! "
When Rong Peng heard this, he couldn't help but glare at his daughter, "What nonsense are you spouting? You're not courteous at all. It's all thanks to someone as big as you!"
Rong Luo Yan did not say anything.
Rong Peng felt that something was a bit off. He looked at his daughter with some astonishment as he thought to himself, "Luo Yan, why do you feel so weird today? It's completely different from the past!"
One had to know that even though Rong Luo Yan used to tease others, or meet opponents, or had bad intentions towards people, she had never been polite either.
However, her personality was very dignified and tranquil, giving off a light feeling.
This was even more so when she was in charge of Rongpeng Group. She would not easily lose her temper even if she were to face an outrageous situation.
This caused Rong Peng to be a bit surprised and a bit worried at the same time. He hurriedly scolded his daughter before turning to Ji Feng and saying, "Young Master Ji, don't mind me …"
Ji Feng smiled and waved his hand, saying, "Uncle, don't think too much. I'm friends with Su Yan, so it's normal for us to joke around like this. On the contrary, you being so polite makes me feel uncomfortable all over."
Rong Peng nodded with a smile and relaxed. He said: "Young Master Ji, how should I put it … … "Although Luo Yan's words are a bit impolite, but I do have these doubts. After all, ever since our family broke off all relations with the Wu family, we never planned to stay in the southern part of Guangdong province. After moving here, we also never planned to have any relationship with the Wu family or the southern part of Guangdong province …"
"Young Master Ji, you understand what I'm saying, right?" Rong Peng asked with a smile.
"I understand."
Ji Feng smiled as he nodded his head, "Uncle, I can understand your thoughts, but I can also understand what you are worried about... Let me put it this way, I have come to invite you this time, not because I want you to be my cannon fodder, but because I truly want to invite you to go with me to Guangdong. On one hand, it is to stop the cooperation between the Brilliant Group and the j.a.panese, and on the other, it is for the Brilliant Group. "
Rong Peng asked, "What do you mean?"
Ji Feng slightly smiled, "Uncle, in the hands of some people, the Glorious Group is just a tool, a bargaining chip. "However, if we were to change the people at the helm of the Brilliant Group, I think you should know about the social benefits of such a large group, right?"
"Change the leader of Splendid Group?"
Rong Peng's eyelids couldn't help but twitch wildly a few times, but he remained calm and collected as he asked: "Young Master Ji, I don't quite understand what you mean!"
Ji Feng laughed, "Simply put, I believe that the Brilliant Group is always controlled by the Wu Clan, which is not quite appropriate. I think that Uncle is more suited to be the controller of the Brilliant Group."
Rong Peng's expression changed as he shook his head and laughed, "Young Master Ji, you must be joking. That Rong Peng today... I have nothing to do with the Brilliant Group anymore. If I don't have any shares in the company, how can I control the Brilliant Group? Moreover, I do not want to have any relationship with the Wu Clan anymore. Now that I am old, I just want to live the rest of my life peacefully. "
As he spoke to here, in truth, Rong Peng had already tactfully refused. Moreover, his intentions in refusing were very clear.
… …. As I'm getting on in age, I won't be accompanying you on your trip to Guangdong Province.
Of course, Ji Feng could tell, but he only shook his head and laughed. Although Rongpeng was adamant about his decision, he was sure that in his heart, Rongpeng would still be obsessed with the Brilliant Group.
Otherwise, why would Rongpeng still be tempted to call 'Rongpeng Group' when they mentioned the Brilliant Group?
He only hastily changed his words when the words were about to leave his mouth.
This meant that the name "Glorious Group" was taboo to him. Apparently, he was unwilling and resentful in his heart. However, because the Wu Clan was too powerful, Rongpeng could do nothing about it.
Uncle, don't be in such a hurry to answer me. I already said, I have two reasons for inviting you out of the sect this time. First of all, it is to prevent the cooperation between the Brilliant Group and the j.a.panese.
Ji Feng smiled, "But after we stop them from cooperating, it will be your turn, uncle."
Rong Peng was stunned, "What do you mean?"
Ji Feng smiled, "What if this time, the Glory Corporation is defeated? "Maybe it's just a matter of life and death. Uncle, what do you think?"
"This is impossible!" Rongpeng said flatly, "I understand the situation of Glorious Group the best. Even if you don't cooperate with the j.a.panese, you won't be defeated that easily. Young Master Ji, if it wasn't for my old man attacking you, your thoughts would have been ridiculous."
"Maybe."
Ji Feng laughed, "But what if the Brilliant Group is really defeated?"
Rong Peng continuously shook his head: "Even if there really is such a possibility, it would be pitifully small."
Ji Feng nodded, "Then if the Brilliant Group were to be defeated in the end, or even become on the verge of collapse, what about Uncle?"
Rongpeng laughed, "If that's the case, I will do whatever Young Master Ji says. I will not go back on my words."
"Then we have a deal." Ji Feng smiled.
"Ugh!"
Rongpeng nodded and said, "It's a promise. Pure Beauty can testify for us … "Hahaha!"
Ji Feng also laughed, "Uncle, just based on this agreement alone, as I said earlier, if you want to stop their collaboration, I have many questions I need to consult you on. I will have to trouble you more in the future."
Rongpeng smiled and said, "It doesn't matter, I don't have much else. I just have a lot of time right now."
Ji Feng immediately smiled and nodded. "That's great. Uncle, since you've said so much, I have nothing to worry about. I'll just let it be."
"Ugh!"
Rong Peng nodded with a face full of smiles.
Seeing him in such a state, Ji Feng understood in his heart. Rongpeng didn't even bother with their agreement. He obviously treated it as a joke between the two of them.
However, Ji Feng didn't say anything. Reng Peng only treated their agreement as a joke, and that didn't matter. Perhaps very soon, he would discover that he wasn't joking with him, but was seriously talking to him.
At that time, who knew if Rongpeng would still have this kind of casual att.i.tude.
On the other hand, Rong Luo Yan looked deeply at Ji Feng.
She felt that her father's agreement this time was a bit hasty. At the very least, she didn't think that Ji Feng came all the way here just to make fun of her father.
— — Since they had moved to Jiang Prefecture, Ji Feng had only been here a few times.
Usually, when there were festivals, he would not even come!
Rong Luo Yan reprimanded him as she quietly glared at Ji Feng, but no one knew what she was thinking about.
Seeing that Rong Peng had no intention to continue the topic and was just joking around, Ji Feng naturally didn't continue the topic. Instead, he started to talk about other topics with Rong Peng.
By this time, Madam Rong and the nanny had already returned. Rong Suyan went to the kitchen to help.
When she reached the kitchen door, she turned around and saw Ji Feng sitting on the sofa with his elbows on the arm of the sofa. He had an extraordinary bearing, like a great man with a general's demeanor.
She couldn't help but be lost in thought …
