Only after being reborn did I realize how fascinating the world of the rich is.

Seeing Li Xiaofeng's firm stance and lack of interest in joining them, Cao Jinpeng was somewhat helpless and could only say, "Alright then, whatever. I originally thought this was the best opportunity for you to mend your relationship with the second and fourth brothers!"

Li Xiaofeng frowned slightly and said somewhat irritably, "Boss Cao, you say I'm trying to mend my relationship with the second and fourth brothers, then let me ask you, what is the point of my conflict with those two?"

After hearing Li Xiaofeng's words, Cao Jinpeng was speechless for a moment.

Li Xiaofeng sneered and said in a nonchalant tone, "I'm afraid the so-called conflict between me and them isn't a conflict between the two of them, but rather something that was stirred up by their pillow talk!"

"Boss Cao, how do you plan for me to resolve this conflict with them? You're not suggesting I apologize to their two wives, are you?"

"A real man shouldn't argue with a woman..."

"Cao Jinpeng, are you out of your mind? That bitch Shen Jiaqi almost got me arrested. She knelt down in front of me and begged me to forgive her, but I might not forgive her. And you actually expect me to beg her?"

There's a saying that goes, "It's easier to change mountains and rivers than to change one's nature." Do you know that?

And then there's Wei Jianjun, who is in a relationship with Shen Jiaqi, as she admitted in court. It's also highly likely that he had an affair with Shen Jiayi.

"Two vile women and that stinking piece of dog shit Wei Jianjun, instead of me getting away from them, you actually want me to go near them? What were you thinking?"

This time, Li Xiaofeng didn't call him "Boss" or "Boss Cao," but directly called him by his name, his tone very impolite and his expression very angry.

Cao Jinpeng was a little unhappy with what Li Xiaofeng said. He waved his hand, glanced at Qin Kai, and said awkwardly, "Okay, okay, I won't say anything more, alright?"

I was only saying that for your own good, and look at all this talk you've given me! You're being so disrespectful, showing absolutely no respect for my friends!

Li Xiaofeng sneered: "Boss Cao, that's not how you show respect. We've all entered society and are adults now."

As adults, everyone has their own stance and interests, and the issues involved are not as trivial as they were in our student days.

I don't usually like socializing, but I'm already doing you a favor by accepting your invitation to come here today. Yet you still want to directly dictate my career development. Don't you think you're going a bit too far?

Furthermore, you should also consider your own career development. Have you surpassed me, or do you have some valuable insights or experiences of your own? Why do you presume to give me advice, and get upset when I don't listen to you? What gives you the right?!

"Alright, alright, third brother, forget what I said before, have fun by yourself!"

After saying that, Cao Jinpeng stormed off in a huff.

Seeing that Cao Jinpeng had left and that Li Xiaofeng was unresponsive, Qin Kai exchanged a few more polite words with Li Xiaofeng and was about to go and greet the others when he noticed that Le Xiner was walking towards them.

"Miss Xin'er, you've become more and more... beautiful lately..."

As Qin Kai greeted Le Xin'er, he stared in disbelief as she walked past him to Li Xiaofeng's side and took his arm.

Luo Siyuan glared angrily at them from a distance, while Le Xin'er stood tall and proud, returning his gaze with a defiant look.

Qin Kai felt somewhat embarrassed, so he walked towards Luo Siyuan to avoid and alleviate the awkwardness.

Seeing Le Xiner's expression, Li Xiaofeng leaned close to her ear and whispered, "Attorney Le, if you keep doing this, aren't you afraid I'll take it for real?"

Le Xin'er smiled, but threatened fiercely, "You dare!"

Without saying a word, Li Xiaofeng kissed her on the cheek. Le Xin'er tried to dodge but failed, and gritted her teeth as she reached out to scratch Li Xiaofeng's face.

But Li Xiaofeng had already sensed that things were going badly and ran away beforehand.

Le Xin'er chased after him for a few steps, but seeing that many people around were looking at her, she felt that it was damaging her ladylike image. So she stopped angrily, intending to glare at Li Xiaofeng until he died.

However, seeing this scene only made Luo Siyuan, who was standing at a distance, even angrier.

Li Xiaofeng didn't care about any of that. He didn't earn money to please others; he earned it to enjoy life better. Teasing beautiful women was an important part of his life.

What Wei family?

What Luo family?

What Qin family?

I, Li Xiaofeng, have money. Money is everything. If you see through this world, you will understand that this is the ultimate goal. All other so-called resources, connections, family background, etc., can essentially be considered as tools of production.

Only by converting these production tools into cash can their true value be realized; otherwise, they are merely pretty vases displayed on a counter.

With money in hand, Li Xiaofeng could choose to buy these vases according to his needs.

After a while, seeing that Le Xiner's anger had subsided, Li Xiaofeng walked over to her again. After receiving two light punches from her, he smiled and said, "Attorney Le, what's wrong? I was just cooperating with you!"

"You filthy scoundrel! I knew you were no good. I shouldn't have helped you get away with it last time. I should have put you in jail for a few more years!"

"Hey, Attorney Le, mind your professional image! If someone hears you saying that, all your clients will run away in an instant!"

Then, Li Xiaofeng asked curiously, "What did Luo Siyuan do to offend you this time that you need to use me as a scapegoat again?"

Le Xin'er pouted and said irritably, "He said my law firm has no future, and if I really want to start my own business, I should open a branch office under the name of Jinhai Law Firm!"

"He's right. Although you'll earn less that way, it will help you build your reputation much faster!"

"No way! I want to make a name for myself through my own abilities!"

Li Xiaofeng said irritably, "Is there something wrong with you? Is there anything wrong with being able to use other people's strength to complete your own career?"

Do you know how much time and effort it takes for people from the bottom to climb up the social ladder, relying solely on your own abilities? Including yourself, did you acquire the legal resources you have through your own merit?

"How could I not have earned it through my own abilities?" Le Xin'er's words seemed somewhat guilty.

Li Xiaofeng smiled faintly: "Attorney Le, although I don't understand your legal profession or your family's situation, I do know that no one in this world can succeed easily."

You don't have to compromise with Luo Siyuan, but you will definitely need to rely on the strength of others to realize your dreams.
