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

Li Xiaofeng is also very willing to get closer to Hou Guowei.

What he lacks most now is connections, especially connections within the system like Hou Guowei, who is young, energetic, and has a promising future.

Li Xiaofeng quickly said, "Oh, thank you so much, Director Hou and Secretary Li, for your concern!"

Secretary Li nodded in satisfaction: "No need to thank me. As long as you run your business well, abide by the law, and don't evade taxes, that's the greatest thanks you can give us!"

Li Xiaofeng quickly patted his chest and assured him, "Secretary Li, don't worry, I'm a law-abiding citizen and I would never evade taxes. The country has given us such good policies and environment, so paying some taxes is only right!"

Once the conversation started, the atmosphere between the two became more relaxed and comfortable.

Seeing Li Xiaofeng's expression as if he were about to swear an oath, Secretary Li smiled and nodded, continuing, "I've already seen the investigation results from the tax authorities, and there are no problems."

These days, there aren't many business owners like you who can withstand scrutiny like you. I've also spoken to them; if there aren't any major problems, minor issues can be easily fixed with minor improvements.

Upon hearing that Secretary Li had even helped resolve the tax-related issues, Li Xiaofeng expressed his gratitude once again.

"Secretary Li, thank you so much! Without your help, we don't know how much longer we would have been tormented!"

"You don't need to worry so much. They're just following the rules. As long as you stand your ground, none of this will be a problem!"

After Secretary Li spoke with Li Xiaofeng, the investigation team issued a statement.

The statement indicated that the auction was legal and compliant, without any issues. The current positive development momentum of Hongxing Electric Vehicle Factory also proves that the reform of this state-owned enterprise is successful, beneficial to the economic development of the entire society, and also beneficial to the factory's employees.

As for Director Feng's self-reporting, it was found that his son, Feng Bowen, had a huge amount of unexplained wealth and was suspected of accepting huge bribes and using the opportunity to cause trouble.

After further investigation by relevant departments, the Feng family will be punished in accordance with relevant laws and regulations.

The matter concerning Hongxing Electric Vehicle Factory was now settled. Shanghai newspapers also published news about the investigation team, and their attitude shifted from criticism to affirmation, allowing Li Xiaofeng to experience what true power was.

Soon, Li Xiaofeng brought Huang Hao and Huang Jing over.

Over the years, while the two of them were working as managers at the gym, under Li Xiaofeng's guidance, they secretly collected information for him from various sources, especially information about the Wei family.

Of course, these two people would definitely receive extra fees and benefits. They had always been involved in the underworld and had a lot of tricks and schemes up their sleeves. As long as they weren't in a rush, they would always reap a lot of rewards.

As Huang Jing handed the documents to Li Xiaofeng, she said indignantly, "That guy surnamed Wei is a real scoundrel. No girl who's been with him has ever had a good ending. Luckily, I left early."

Li Xiaofeng smiled, offered no further explanation, and continued to look at the materials Huang Jing had given him.

These documents show that the Wei family father and son have a large amount of evidence of forcing women into prostitution, and there is also a witness willing to come forward to testify. This person is Xiaoli, the ex-girlfriend of the fourth brother, Cheng Zhiyuan.

When Li Xiaofeng went to the nightclub to rescue Liu Qianqian, he met Xiao Li once. At that time, Xiao Li was Wei Jianjun's girlfriend.

At the time, Cheng Zhiyuan was still quite inexperienced and seemed to have quite a few feelings for Xiaoli. He even seemed to have tried to rescue her. However, after falling in love with Shen Jiaqi, he stopped caring about Xiaoli altogether.

Later, Wei Jianjun got tired of Xiaoli and used the numerous photos and videos he had taken of her to blackmail her into working in the sex industry so that she could earn money for him.

Xiaoli also considered running away, and even ran to Uncle Hat's place, but in the end, because there was no evidence, the matter was dropped, and Xiaoli was caught and taken back, where she suffered even more cruel torture and beatings.

Huang Hao may have also seen these materials, and he said indignantly, "The Wei family is really too vicious. If two people are not suitable to be together, they can just break up!"

But he does it! He uses photos and videos to control women and make money for them. These women are truly pitiful!

Li Xiaofeng, however, said with some emotion: "There must be something hateful about those who are pitiful. From the result, they are indeed very pitiful, but from the process, they are all somewhat to blame for their own actions."

If they weren't so picky, so materialistic, and so eager to seduce rich men, people like Wei Jianjun wouldn't have had the opportunity to manipulate them and lead them deeper and deeper into their trap.

Huang Jing said somewhat indignantly, "But is it wrong for a woman to want to pursue her own happiness?"

Li Xiaofeng glanced at her, smiled, and said, "It's certainly not wrong for a woman to pursue her own happiness, but it's definitely wrong to have wishful thinking and try to get so-called happiness by taking shortcuts."

If a person wants to be happy, they must understand themselves. If they have obtained something that did not originally belong to them, they should be willing to bear the burden that they should not have to bear.

Many women, spoiled by capital, believe themselves to be fairies, thinking they can possess some of the most beautiful things in the world.

But they didn't consider that if everything belonged to them, what about the men?

Often, only con artists can satisfy women's desires, and only vicious con artists like Wei Jianjun have fertile ground to thrive.

Li Xiaofeng felt some sympathy for Xiaoli's plight, but he was mostly indifferent and detached, which was one of the reasons why he only wanted to take action now.

Even if we rescue Xiaoli, so what? After experiencing all this, will Xiaoli reflect on herself? Most likely not.

She only hates that all men are liars and that all men in the world are heartless. She even seeks revenge on men, completely forgetting that there was once a Cheng Zhiyuan who genuinely pursued her.

As long as women maintain this mentality, more women will fall into the arms of swindlers. Some will be swindled out of money, some out of sex, some out of both, and some will be cheated out of their kidneys.

Li Xiaofeng believed that his abilities were limited, and that it was already good enough if he could protect himself; he couldn't save the world.

"Mr. Li, are you taking action against the Wei family?" Huang Hao asked from the side.

Li Xiaofeng nodded, snorted coldly, and said, "If that Wei guy hadn't provoked me, I would have let him off the hook. But now that he's messed with me, he'll have to learn that Lord Ma has three eyes!"
