Pretty and charming, dressed in the 90s, she's good at everything from making money to causing

Before leaving, Duan Jun left a message for Lin Ting—

“Feng Hui didn’t want to check your accounts or vandalize your factory. He asked me to arrange a few people to investigate your businesses first. Based on my understanding of him, he probably intends to challenge you.”

“You do have some connections in Shenyang, but do you dare say you can control everything there? There are plenty of people vying to do things for Young Master Feng, so you should make plans early.”

Lin Ting: "Such a calm mind shouldn't belong to him!"

She thought he would still simply and directly throw a punch.

Duan Jun chuckled: "You can say Feng Hui is arrogant, but you can't say he's all brats... Growing up in a family like the Feng family, even if he's not as good as his brother, he's not completely a good-for-nothing."

"I can stall for you for a week at most. Your businesses and connections are all public knowledge; a little inquiry will reveal everything, so there's no need to put in any effort. In fact, even if I don't tell him, once the news of his beating gets out, someone will come along to spread the word and do him a favor."

Duan Jun had made herself very clear, and Lin understood what she meant—

Before the results are in, Duan Jun cannot afford to break ties with Feng Hui or the Feng family. She can stall for time, but she will not fail to do her job.

Lin Ting waved to her: "Remember to arrange the advertising."

His expression was quite calm.

Duan Jun was slightly taken aback, then shook her head with a smile and got up to leave.

She herself couldn't quite understand where Lin got his confidence from.

She didn't need to rack her brains to figure out what methods Feng Hui could use to compete with Lin Ting—low-price competition, resource squeezing, or perhaps even going to the trouble of poaching Lin Ting's employees.

Don't doubt Feng Hui's financial resources; there are plenty of people willing to foot the bill for Young Master Feng.

Lin Ting was of course aware of these things as well.

She didn't see Duan Jun off, and continued to slowly drink her coffee.

Before long, Jiang Zong arrived.

He sat down opposite Lin Ting, his eyes filled with guilt: "Have I caused you any trouble?"

Lin Ting was a little puzzled: "Why do you say that? If you don't come, I'll have to let Monk do it. In that case, my headache right now should be how to get Monk out."

Afterwards, Lin asked Jiang Zong why he went. He said it was simply because he was worried. Originally, he planned to stay and watch from the sidelines. If nothing happened, that would be best; if something did…

Lin felt that Jiang Zong would follow her, and this was probably also part of Jiang's father's plan.

Given Feng Hui's personality, there's a 99% chance he'll step on Jiang Zong's landmines.

Lin Ting sighed softly, silently marveling to herself: Successful businessmen are indeed all excellent psychologists.

She snapped out of her reverie and, seeing Jiang Zong's low spirits, said, "Moreover, this matter will indeed be somewhat troublesome, but it is also an opportunity."

Jiang Zonglue frowned slightly: "You mean going to the capital?"

Lin Ting nodded and then said, "Neither you nor I can stay in the capital for long. Here, if a sign falls down, it could hit at least three officials. It's always unsettling not to have anyone you can talk to."

"As for my third aunt's husband, getting directly involved in the business would cause him trouble."

"Therefore, Duan Jun is a good fit. She has the ability, and more importantly, she needs it."

Cooperation always requires a give-and-take approach, with mutual benefit.

Simply asking others to do things for you is not cooperation; it's just begging.

Jiang Zong never objected to Lin Ting's choices; he only asked, "How do you plan to deal with him?"

Lin Tingyi shrugged: "I don't know."

Jiang Zong: "...?"

Lin Ting: "I really didn't know this time."

"..."

"I mean it!"

"It's hard to believe... but if you say so, then I believe you."
