I Am King

"When would you like to meet them, sir?"

"...No rush, let them wait downstairs first, and temper the madman's arrogance."

Li Banghua raised his wrist to check the time, then picked up the newspaper again and began to read.

Actually, he was perfectly fine at the moment. The reason he didn't choose to see Qin Feng immediately was because he had heard that Qin Feng was very young and had become the head of Dongxing at such a young age. Even without meeting Qin Feng in person, Li Banghua knew that this young man was not the kind of person who would honestly work for him. Only by first wearing down his arrogance and letting him know who the boss was could he be controlled later.

In the lobby on the first floor, Qin Feng was initially quite interested in the magnificent house and took a few more glances at it. However, after looking around, he was just so-so and started chatting with Uncle Shan. But after a few words, Qin Feng became a little impatient.

Uncle Shan probably saw that Qin Feng had been quite agreeable for a while, and since they were on the Li family's territory, he started talking like he did before Qin Feng had lectured him.

His words even carried a hint of "fatherly" tone.

“…Ah Feng, even though you’ve become the head of our Dongxing, you still need to be more humble.”

"Humility? How so?"

Qin Feng narrowed his eyes.

"First and foremost, you must respect your elders. Like this time, if I hadn't introduced you to a powerful family like the Li family, who knows how long you would have had to wait."

Uncle Shan hadn't noticed Qin Feng's change yet, and upon hearing his question, he began to talk at length;

"Secondly, you can't act as flamboyantly as before. After all, Ah Feng, you're the leader now. You can't keep fighting and killing like before. You need to..."

Uncle Shan couldn't say anything more because Qin Feng's hand was already on his shoulder. As Qin Feng increased the pressure on his hand, Uncle Shan groaned and cold sweat began to trickle down his forehead.

Qin Feng's smile remained unchanged; "Uncle Shan, are you teaching me how to do things?"

"...No...no, I just wanted to give you some advice, Boss."

As Qin Feng increased his strength, the pain in his shoulder gradually intensified. Uncle Shan felt as if his shoulder was about to be crushed, and he could barely speak.

If this weren't the Li family's residence, he might have shouted out loud, but even though he suppressed his voice, the expression on Uncle Shan's face was gradually becoming distorted.

"Uncle Shan, do you know why, even though we're both in the underworld, you could only be a henchman when you were young, while I could become a gang leader?"

As they spoke, Qin Feng released Uncle Shan's shoulder and even reached out to smooth out the wrinkles that Uncle Shan had pinched on his clothes. Throughout the whole process, the expression on his face did not change, as if what had just happened had never happened at all.

"..." Uncle Shan didn't speak, but his gaze towards Qin Feng returned to its usual form, filled with apprehension and fear.

"Because once you achieve a little success, you become afraid."

"I'm afraid of being hacked to death, afraid of having my position stolen, afraid of my family being targeted by enemies..."

In just a short while, Qin Feng had already straightened Uncle Shan's clothes, patted his face, and then stood up. The smile on his face disappeared, his expression darkened, and he said in a cold voice, "So Uncle Shan, you will never be able to sit in the position of the leader in this lifetime."

After saying that, Qin Feng walked straight out. It was almost 8:20, and not only had Li Banghua not appeared, but the butler who had greeted them earlier had also not shown up.

Even if Li Banghua is busy and can't see them for the time being, he should at least send someone to entertain them, or tell them a specific time to meet. What kind of behavior is it to leave them standing here in the cold?

It's obvious that the Li family doesn't take him, the head of Dongxing, seriously at all. Of course, another possibility is that the Li family is deliberately keeping him at arm's length and trying to suppress him.

But he wasn't one to put up with being wronged, so neither of these possibilities was acceptable to him, and he wasn't going to wait for the Li family's money.

"Ah... Boss, where are you going?"

Seeing that Qin Feng had already reached the door, Uncle Shan quickly spoke up.

"go home."

Qin Feng turned around and sneered, then strode out of the villa gate.

Since the Li family was unwilling to give him gifts, he would have to find a way to get them himself.

After all, he had traveled all night and waited for so long, so he certainly couldn't work for nothing...
