Uncle Shenhao: Take ten nephews to the supermarket at the beginning

"Dad, are you really that serious? He's just someone involved in underground activities."

"Our Leng Group is a legitimate large enterprise with assets of several billion. Why should we be afraid of him?"

Leng Shao didn't experience Hong Ye's glorious era, so naturally he doesn't understand anything.

He had never taken over any of the key parts of the group.

He even had a big argument with his father over this.

It seems that this was the right decision; otherwise, even if it had been passed down, it would have failed.

Leng Dong was so angry that his chest felt tight, and he pointed at his nose, his voice trembling.

"Billions? Compared to Master Hong, your meager assets aren't even enough to fill a tooth gap!"

He took a deep breath, forcing himself to calm down, and lowered his voice, saying, "You think Master Hong is just an ordinary underground character?"

"Back then, so many big corporations fought tooth and nail for that piece of land in the west of the city, but it ended up in our hands in the end. Do you think it was because of what? It was just a matter of a word from Master Hong!"

"And the underground arena in the south of the city, do you think just anyone can open one? That's Boss Hong's territory! It's not about fists and kicks there, it's about life and death!"

"Many people who disagreed with him went in and never came out!"

"Last year, that developer surnamed Zhang from the east of the city tried to steal business from Master Hong because he had connections. In less than half a month, his company's cash flow dried up, and he also died unexpectedly on the stage. Do you think these are all coincidences?"

Leng Shao curled his lip, still disdainfully saying, "So what? No matter how powerful they are, they're still shady thugs. We operate legally and are protected by law!"

Kids are just kids; they don't understand these kinds of things.

This is why Chairman Leng did not hand over the reins of the group to him.

In today's society, which is all about personal connections, it's practically impossible to get by without them.

The exception is your ability, which is beyond the reach of ordinary people; otherwise, why would anyone give you attitude?

Leng Shao represents some people in ivory towers who have no idea what life would be like without money.

This is why many wealthy people send their children to foster care from a very young age so that they can grow up and develop their skills.

This is also to prevent their businesses from being destroyed by the next generation.

There's a saying that the second generation of rich kids can only be rich for two generations.

Many family businesses eventually perish.

Those families that have endured for a long time are either incredibly low-key or have found a new path.

"law?"

Leng Dong sneered, his eyes filled with deep mockery, "If you really piss off Master Hong, there are plenty of ways to make you disappear legally!"

"He wants to bring down the Leng family without even getting his hands dirty. He can just release some information, and the banks will withdraw their loans and the partners will terminate their contracts. In less than a month, we will be bankrupt!"

He became more and more agitated as he spoke, poking Leng Shao's forehead with a look of disappointment and frustration.

"Do you think the woman you were flirting with, or the man you hit, were ordinary people?"

"The only people who can get Master Hong to personally give you a card are either his closest confidants or big shots whom even he treats with utmost respect! You're lucky you weren't crippled on the spot today!"

Young Master Leng turned pale at what he was being said, and his head felt dizzy, but he still stubbornly said, "Then... then he can't openly break the law, can he?"

"Breach of the law?"

Leng Dong was so angry he almost laughed out loud, "Once he really targets you, you won't even have a chance to call the police!"

"Last time, some clueless rich kid got into a fight with Boss Hong's men at a bar, and the next day he drove drunk and crashed into a guardrail, losing both legs and making the news. Do you think that was an accident?"

Leng Shao's lips moved, as if he wanted to say something, but he couldn't utter a single word.

His father's words were like a bucket of ice water poured over his head and to his feet, making him realize for the first time that he had just provoked someone who could easily crush him.

He'd been born with a silver spoon in his mouth, so he never thought much about anything else. He assumed his family was already incredibly powerful and that he could do whatever he wanted in Europe.

"In short, just listen to what I say, and you won't go wrong."

Leng Dong stared at him, his tone leaving no room for argument, "From today onwards, you better keep a low profile! Even if it's just a dog by Hong Ye's side, you'd better stay away from him! If you dare to cause trouble again, don't say I don't recognize you as my son!"

After saying that, he stopped looking at Leng Shao, turned around and sternly said to the bodyguards behind him, "What are you all standing there for? Prepare the car! Go back to the company!"

Leng Shao stood there, watching his father's hurried departure, then touched the burning handprint on his face, and for the first time felt an indescribable fear.

But that fear was quickly suppressed by his resentment. He gritted his teeth and cursed inwardly: So what if he's a gang leader? Just you wait and see, one day I'll make you all bow down to me!

And Luo Feng, what are you pretending for? Sooner or later, I'll pin your woman down right in front of you.

Little did they know that this move would lead to the destruction of their family and their lives.

On the other side, inside the Lamborghini.

Luo Feng turned to look at Lin Naizi and asked in a low voice, "Are you alright?"

Lin Naoko shook her head. "I'm fine. Just think of it as having a meal and watching a show, and it's free, isn't it great?"

Luo Feng smiled and nodded, "I was afraid this fly would disturb your meal."

As the car drove away from the hotel, Luo Feng looked at the receding street scene outside the window and said to Team Leader Chen, "Let's take Nai Zi back to rest first."

"You must be tired from your journey, get some rest tonight."

Lin Naoko turned her head to look at him, a hint of worry in her eyes, and asked, "Are you going to do something?"

"I'll talk to Zeng Fan and Colin."

Luo Feng scrolled through the messages on his phone. "The new energy project needs to be implemented as soon as possible."

Even if he wants to stall for time, Master Hong won't give him much time.

These investors are different from ordinary investors.

This was something Luo Feng realized from the very beginning.

Team Leader Chen parked his car downstairs at the apartment building.

Lin Naoko did not get out of the car immediately, but looked at Luo Feng and said softly, "You don't have to take what was said at the Hongmen Banquet seriously."

"Although Hongye and his team are capable, they may not be suitable partners."

Luo Feng knew what she meant and understood the principle.

That day, in order to escape the encirclement of various forces, he casually agreed to cooperate with Master Hong and others to develop new energy sources, never intending to be hindered by these people.

Moreover, his purpose in coming to Europe was to prevent himself from falling into a passive position.

The Shadow Council probably doesn't have time to deal with him right now, but Thanatos is still something he needs to keep an eye on.

"I see."

Luo Feng nodded and smiled faintly. "But since the words have already been spoken, we have to show some semblance of compliance. If we really want to get things done, we must take the initiative."

Suddenly, Lin Naoko reached out and gently grasped his wrist, the warmth of her palm seeping through the fabric.

She slowly said, "Luo Feng, let me help you."

Luo Feng was slightly taken aback and looked at her.

“I’m more adept at intelligence and resource integration than you are.”

She looked up, a hint of a smile in her eyes, "I always thought I could stand on my own, but that only made me drift further and further away from you."

"This time, I don't want to leave you again. Whether it's a project or anything else, I want to stand with you through it all."

Her voice was soft, yet it was like a pebble falling into Luo Feng's heart lake, creating ripples.

As various images from the past flashed through his mind, he suddenly realized that he had long since grown accustomed to having her by his side.

Moreover, Lin Naoko had indeed helped him a lot. He suddenly felt very happy. The women around him were all wonderful, each with their own merits.

What's most infuriating is that these people can still get along and share Luo Feng, this one man.

If it were an ordinary man, he would be considered quite good if he could keep even one woman in the harem.

"it is good."

Luo Feng grasped her hand tightly in return, a faint smile playing on his lips. "Then I'll leave this matter to Miss Lin."

Lin Naoko was amused by him, and the worry in her eyes lessened considerably. She uttered four words: "Waiting for your news."

Watching her walk into the apartment building, Luo Feng said to Team Leader Chen, "Go to Zeng Fan's place."

The car restarted, and Luo Feng stared at the headlights ahead, his eyes growing darker.

The new energy project is a lucrative opportunity, and Hong Ye and the other bigwigs won't let it go easily. To keep them on their side without being controlled, they need to consult with Colin for a solution.

After all, it was he and Colin who got this done together.

We can't just let this guy get away with it so easily and make him take all the blame.

The car stopped outside a low-key villa. Luo Feng got out of the car and, as soon as he approached the gate, he heard a suppressed shout coming from inside.

He pushed open the door and entered; the scene in the courtyard made him pause slightly.

Several bodyguards in black were holding a man down. The man had his head down and his shoulders were being held down tightly. Luo Feng had previously warned Colin that there was a Shadow Council mole hidden among him.

Originally, Luo Feng hadn't planned to tell Colin these things, since he knew what Colin was thinking.

However, he still told the other party about the collaboration.

On the one hand, he wanted to win Colin over and make him trust him more.

Colin stood with his back to the door, fiddling with a dagger in his hand, while Lian Shan's expression remained grim.

Hearing the noise, he turned around abruptly, his face still bearing the lingering anger. When he saw it was Luo Feng, his brows furrowed even more, but he raised his chin slightly.

"You've arrived? Mr. Luo, perfect timing, let's take a look at this scum."

He kicked the undercover agent in the back of the knee, and the man staggered and fell to his knees.

Colin spat, his tone full of anger.

"Damn, they hid it well!"

"If you hadn't mentioned it before, I would still be completely in the dark!"

He turned to look at Luo Feng, his eyes filled with annoyance, and said, "This bastard has been with me for three years, serving me tea and water and pretending to be more loyal than anyone else. I have never mistreated him."

"He turned out to be a dog of the Shadow Council! If we hadn't discovered during the audit that he had secretly transferred several suspicious funds overseas, we really wouldn't have been able to catch him!"

Clang! He threw the dagger to the ground, making a crisp sound.

"Are these people crazy? I've been keeping to myself and they insist on shoving nails into my territory. Do they really think I, Colin, am a pushover?"

Luo Feng glanced at the person on the ground and asked, "What do you plan to do with this?"

Colin didn't respond, but simply gestured with his chin to the bodyguards, indicating that they should take the person away.

He then turned and walked into the house, saying, "Come in and let's talk."

The interior was simply furnished. Colin went straight to the tea table and began to arrange the tea set.

Hot water is poured into the purple clay teapot, and wisps of steam rise up.

Luo Feng looked around and was surprised to find that Colin had a deep understanding of Chinese culture.

Many of the tea utensils in this tea room are from China.

"Those Shadow Council people are as cunning as a sieve."

He poured out some tea, pushed a cup to Luo Feng, and said in a deep voice, "I plan to follow this lead and send someone to their side as well."

Luo Feng picked up the teacup, touched the warm cup, and frowned slightly.

The Shadow Council's foundation is unfathomable; it's not a place where you can just plant someone anywhere.
That idea is far too naive.

He didn't reply, but simply blew gently on the rim of the cup to cool it down.

Luo Feng took a sip of tea; it was slightly astringent, but had a sweet aftertaste.

He put down his cup and looked up at Colin.

"How are things going with the new energy project? Have you contacted the partners yet?"

Colin was refilling his water bottle when he heard this, he paused, and his brows furrowed again.

"Hongye is pressing hard, I sent my men to make contact, but I haven't received a reply yet."

He put down the teapot and said in a deep voice, "A few old foxes are probably waiting to see how the wind blows."

Luo Feng swirled his teacup, looked up and said, "This isn't a solution."

He paused, then looked at Colin and said, "How about this, you send out invitations to all the parts suppliers in your own name."

"Just say I'm hosting a meal for them."

Colin raised an eyebrow and said, "Eat? At this crucial moment..."

"Ah."

Luo Feng interrupted him, his eyes flashing with coldness, "If Master Hong can set up a trap, so can we."
