On the way back, Xiao Pingping looked Li Xiaofeng up and down as if she were seeing him for the first time.

Li Xiaofeng casually pulled her into his arms, kissed her on the cheek, and said with a smile, "What, don't you recognize me?"

Xiao Pingping struggled a couple of times in Li Xiaofeng's arms, but seeing that she couldn't break free, she had no choice but to let him hold her. She asked with a puzzled tone, "You beat those two up, aren't you afraid they'll cause you trouble?"

Li Xiaofeng said confidently, "If they want to cause me trouble, then let them come at me. I'm not afraid of them, otherwise I wouldn't have taken direct action!"

Then, with some doubt, he asked, "Why would you go to a place like that!"

So Xiao Pingping recounted her experience in detail, saying with some grievance, "I never expected it to turn out like this. That guy surnamed Wei is no good!"

Li Xiaofeng smiled and said with great emotion, "In the charity industry, many people make money from it. In principle, the management fees of a real charity association are generally between 5% and 10%."

In reality, many charities nowadays have management costs exceeding 50%, and it's not uncommon for them to exceed 70%. Because of this, I've generally not made large donations to these charities.

Xiao Pingping seemed to have a shattered worldview and couldn't help but retort, "You can't generalize. There are still more good people than bad in this world. There should still be many people who are genuinely doing charity!"

"Of course, I admit that there are indeed many people who are genuinely doing charity, like you. But kind girls like you are often easily taken advantage of by some people with ulterior motives!"

Xiao Pingping pouted, looking somewhat aggrieved, and said, "That guy surnamed Wei is so awful! People like him should die!"

Then, tilting her pretty face up, she tentatively asked, "With your abilities, are you sure you can completely deal with that guy surnamed Wei? Keeping someone like that in the charity sector will tarnish its reputation!"

Li Xiaofeng couldn't help but kiss her pretty face again, and said with a sigh, "Most people are selfish. Even if we deal with that Wei guy, someone else will still do it."

The man surnamed Wei is very cunning. He and his father have been involved in the charity business for generations, forging close ties with many people. While I have the power to destroy him, it would offend many others.

Xiao Pingping glanced at Li Xiaofeng, then lowered her head and remained silent.

"Pingping, do you think I'm selfish and cowardly, that I back down when facing bad people?"

"No!" Xiao Pingping's tone was very insincere.

Li Xiaofeng smiled and said, "I'm not surprised that you think this way, because your perspective and viewpoint are completely different from mine. I have many people around me who rely on me for their livelihood."

My most important task right now is to lead everyone forward, not to fight those petty villains head-on. Once I'm strong enough, those villains will naturally turn to dust!

Seeing Xiao Pingping's somewhat bewildered expression, Li Xiaofeng smiled and continued, "For example, one day I was walking down the street when a fierce dog, even more ferocious and powerful than a wolf, barked at me and even ran over and bit me."

Am I supposed to bite back and fight this vicious dog? Even if I won, what good would it do me? Would others applaud and cheer for me?

The correct thing to do is to pick up a stick and give the dog a good whack to make it back down, and then go to the dog's owner to complain and let the owner deal with the dog, or even make the owner compensate me for my losses!

If his owner doesn't discipline him, and this dog dares to come and provoke me again, even if I beat the dog to death, his owner won't say anything, don't you think?

Seeing that Xiao Pingping was still somewhat confused, Li Xiaofeng smiled and continued, "Actually, the attitude of the dog owner is not about who is right, but who is stronger."

If I were not as strong as that dog, its owner would not even bother with me.

If I am only slightly stronger than a dog, the dog's owner will comfort me and will also slightly favor their own dog.

If I were much stronger than a dog, the dog's owner would beat the dog up and warn it to stay away from me and never mess with me again!

If my overall strength surpasses his master's, his master will stew his dog and personally deliver it to me to apologize!

Xiao Pingping seemed to understand somewhat, and tentatively asked, "So, you're saying that you're already much stronger than that guy surnamed Wei, but still not as strong as the person behind him!"

Li Xiaofeng smiled and said in a nonchalant tone, "I'm just giving you an example. In fact, Wei Jianjun isn't just one person behind him, but a group of people."

I'm not really afraid of the people behind him, I just don't want to cause myself too much trouble because of Wei Jianjun!

If Wei Jianjun causes me trouble, even if I beat him to death, the people behind him won't hold a grudge against me. They'll just think that Wei Jianjun was blind to his own faults.

This is why Wei Jianjun has always been obsequious to me. He knows very well that he is in the wrong this time, and if he dares to bare his teeth at me, I will have enough reason to take action!

But if I deliberately cause trouble for Wei Jianjun, it's like slapping a lot of people in the face. Those people will secretly try to trip me up. I'm in business; I need to make money peacefully!

"But Wei is a menace; keeping him around will bring disaster to many people!"

"In fact, I have already made a move against Wei Jianjun twice, but he managed to dodge it each time, which shows that Wei is not without the ability to fight back. Don't pursue a desperate enemy."

If I push him too far and let him bite me without restraint, the consequences are unpredictable. I might be able to escape, but those around me might not.

While the law cannot guarantee the punishment of all bad people, it is still very effective in deterring them. The fact that those bad people live in constant fear is also a form of punishment from the law.

As for the fact that keeping him around will cause many people to suffer, that's beyond my control. There are countless bad people in this world; I can't possibly manage them all. Actually, in this world, as long as people are free from greed, they won't easily suffer!

"But all I wanted to do was raise more money to help more people!"

"You are essentially the same. No matter what you do, you should do it within your capabilities. If you hadn't been greedy and done things beyond your ability, how would you be where you are today?"

We live in a society governed by the rule of law, especially in a big city like Shanghai. The authorities are working to improve public security to enhance the city's international image. If you disagree, do you think Wei Jianjun can forcefully drag you away?

Even ordinary people know what's going on in nightclubs, and you probably know it too, you're just hoping to get away with it, aren't you?
