Chapter 103: A Dog Must Have the Awareness of a Dog (Part 2)
Lin Feng burst into laughter:
"Don't worry, if I need anything, I'll definitely call you."
Sister Thirteen clapped her hands and said:
"Full and satisfied, shouldn't we all head home now?"
Lin Feng's expression was strange:
"Um... did any of you go to the police station to visit Greyhound and Dai Fei?"
Everyone was stunned.
Chiang Tin-Sung was the quickest to react:
"Ah Yao, go to the Police Force to visit the two of them."
Chan Yiu gave a wry smile:
"I didn't see any police at Ah Feng's banquet, so I completely forgot about that."
"Alright, I'll take the Triad lawyer to see them right away."
Sister Thirteen's expression was peculiar as she said:
"Those two guys wouldn't think Ah Feng also got dragged to the Police Force by the police, would they?"
Hon Ban smiled and shook his head:
"How is that possible? Which Hung Hing Hall Master doesn't know that Ah Feng's record is squeaky clean?"
Sister Thirteen sighed heavily,
"We know, but Greyhound and Dai Fei don't."
"They were just North Point's Big Boss before, and not that close to Fatty Lai..."
Everyone fell silent.
Sister Thirteen looked Lin Feng up and down:
"Ah Feng, you're truly amazing. I initially thought only the West Kowloon Police Headquarters had been settled by you, but I never expected... even the Hong Kong Island Police Headquarters to be settled by you."
Lin Feng shook his head:
"I don't have the ability to settle the Police Force. Those who mix with Triad are ultimately lowlifes."
"It's just that I'm good at disguising myself. My record is clean, and I have a legitimate profession to protect me. The Police Force can't arrest me even if they wanted to, and they have to consider public perception."
Sister Thirteen quickly said:
"I spoke out of turn."
After seeing everyone off, Lin Feng stretched lazily:
"Everyone, thank you for coming today. I'm going back to get some good rest."
Lok Tin-hung immediately said:
"Boss, Mr. Chen has wanted to see you for a long time."
Lin Feng was surprised:
"Can't even get a moment's peace now?"
"Alright, alright, call them and tell them to come over."
Lok Tin-hung naturally went to handle it.
Wang Jianjun carried the large red envelope box over.
Lin Feng asked:
"Roughly how many gifts are there?"
Wang Jianjun said:
"One to two tens of millions."
"The Hung Hing Hall Master's red packets were all very large, either eight million eight hundred eighty-eight thousand, or six million six hundred sixty-six thousand."
"Aside from a few who brought a lot of cash, the others gave checks."
"Oh, and the cash was sent by Brother Kun."
Lin Feng nodded slightly:
"Brother Kun is thoughtful."
"Give me the gift list. All of these need to be returned."
That's how social interactions work.
Lin Feng asked:
"Did you get the gun license?"
Wang Jianjun smiled and said:
"Got it."
Lin Feng instructed:
"There are many shooting ranges in Hong Kong. Take the time to get familiar with your firearms."
"All expenses incurred while practicing your shooting can be reimbursed through the company's accounts."
After thinking for a moment, he counted out eight million hong kong dollar in cash from the red envelope box and handed it all to Wang Jianjun,
"This is for the Security Company's expenses."
"Later, I will have a third-party accountant manage the books."
"Try to keep the accounts clear."
Wang Jianjun solemnly said:
"Yes!"
This was not a sign of distrust, but simply a technical measure to prevent corruption.
The brothers Wang Jianjun and Wang Jianguo couldn't even imagine their current lives.
Why would they even think of embezzling?
Twenty minutes later, Chen Taotao and Fang Ting walked in together.
Wang Jianjun happened to serve tea.
Lok Tin-hung couldn't help but scratch his head. The Blue-haired Kid felt quite strange, why could Li Fu, Wang Jianjun, and even Wang Jianguo all perfectly handle the assistant's job, but he couldn't?
Lok Tin-hung was a straightforward person, so he asked whatever was on his mind.
Wang Jianjun didn't answer him like Li Fu did, but instead said:
"If you had served in the army like me, you'd understand."
Lok Tin-hung was even more confused. What the hell did that have to do with serving in the army?
Lin Feng looked at Chen Taotao's appearance and shook his head slightly:
"The taste of revenge isn't as pleasant as you imagined?"
Chen Taotao spoke truthfully:
"It is!"
Lin Feng sighed:
"Although our experiences are similar, you and I are still different."
Fang Ting looked at the two in surprise. Their experiences were largely the same, weren't they?
"Tao Tao, I probably know your story—I admire you and want to invite you to work for me, so naturally, an investigation had to be done beforehand."
Chen Taotao nodded:
"Background checks, we usually do those too."
Lin Feng smiled and said:
"Chan Man-yin was suspicious and harsh. Although you didn't get any help from him."
"Deep down, you didn't really hate him much."
"You are a very upright person."
"You always feel that it's better for a man to rely on himself."
"It doesn't matter what kind of father he is."
Chen Taotao gave a wry smile:
"Mr. Lin makes me sound too magnanimous. In reality, I still care a lot about Chan Man-yin's opinion."
"Perhaps he didn't know he had an illegitimate son like me. When he finds out, will he be overjoyed, will he feel guilty? Or something else."
"I actually still really hoped to gain his approval."
Lin Feng nodded slightly:
"So, when your mother was in the late stages of cancer, on her deathbed, and wanted to see Chan Man-yin, you deliberately wore simple clothes to meet him."
Chen Taotao sighed:
"Clothes make the man, just like a saddle makes the horse. Dressed in simple clothes, standing on the street, I wasn't the Vice President of the Investment Department of Wanguo Bank; I was just a poor kid."
"I really wanted to know what Chan Man-yin's true feelings would be when he learned about my mother and me."
"The result, unfortunately."
"He treated me like a beggar, throwing a few large bills from his wallet and chasing me out."
"My mother still harbored love for Chan Man-yin until her dying breath."
"Unfortunately, she died with her eyes open."
"I've kept those few large bills close to me all this time, never spending them."
"They were the motivation for me to push Chan Man-yin out."
Lin Feng clapped his hands and said:
"Revenge, it's always like this."
"The process of revenge is the most exhilarating; after revenge, emptiness is inevitable."
"We lost beautiful things, so we want revenge."
"Next, you should set a big goal for yourself and pursue beauty again."
Chen Taotao asked:
"For example?"
Lin Feng thought for a moment and asked:
"How about becoming the best financial fund in the world?"
Chen Taotao's mouth dropped open:
"This... honestly, it's quite a challenge."
Lin Feng laughed heartily:
"I believe in you..."
"You will eventually become one of the figures standing at the top of the financial industry pyramid!"
Lin Feng then kept Chen Taotao and Fang Ting for dinner.
On the other side, Szeto Ho-Nam excitedly went to report today's events to Uncle Ben.
"What did you say?"
"There were no police at Lin Feng's banquet from beginning to end?"
Situ said seriously:
"No."
"Let alone no police, there wasn't even a single patrol car below Arrogance Restaurant!"
"Everyone who went to Arrogance Restaurant this time was a famous Top Ten Gangs. Under normal circumstances, there would be at least three patrol cars starting below Arrogance Restaurant."
"But today, there wasn't a single police officer."
"Uncle Ben, is there something wrong with this?"
Uncle Ben sighed with emotion:
"Youth is to be feared!"
Situ was surprised:
"Uncle Ben, is there really no problem?"
Uncle Ben shook his head:
"Lin Feng has already gained the approval of the police."
"It's very difficult to deal with him using ordinary methods."
Situ exclaimed in shock:
"Is Lin Feng a police informant? No way!"
Uncle Ben couldn't help but roll his eyes:
"How big is your imagination to think Lin Feng is an informant?"
"If he were an informant, would the Hung Hing Hall Master and Big Bosses all be blind?"
Szeto Ho-Nam looked embarrassed; he didn't know why such a strange thought had popped into his head.
Uncle Ben calmed down for a while and said:
"Lin Feng is a person of status and position, completely different from you bunch of lowlifes."
Situ was unconvinced.
"You bunch of lowlifes"? As if you aren't one.
"On the surface, Lin Feng is a boss with great status, a clean background, and outstanding honors."
"Most importantly, he recently threw twenty-five million hong kong dollar into the Triad, stirring up unrest."
"...The Police Force doesn't want to provoke him!"
Situ's eyes almost popped out.
"Uncle Ben, when you say that, it sounds like you're saying the Police Force bullies the weak and fears the strong."
Uncle Ben didn't care at all,
"Bullying the weak and fearing the strong is human nature."
"Do you see any difference in the Police Force's attitude towards the Top Ten Gangs Triad and the third-rate Triad?"
"Isn't that bullying the weak and fearing the strong?"
If you insist on using a nicer term... like considering the big picture, or considering the societal impact, I'd agree. But to put it bluntly, we're all the same.
Regardless, the Police Force was at a disadvantage in front of Lin Feng.
However, if I were the Police Force, I'd have a headache too.
Think about it, this guy's record is spotlessly clean, he owns several large businesses, and he treats money like it's nothing, daring to throw out twenty-five million hong kong dollar at the drop of a hat...
Szeto Ho-Nam retorted, unconvinced:
He only threw it out that one time.
Uncle Ben smiled and shook his head:
That one time is enough. Do you really think it needs to be multiple times?
You need to understand something:
For a self-made young billionaire like Lin Feng, age is his biggest advantage.
He won't care too much about money like others.
Becoming a billionaire at twenty years old, you can imagine how high his aspirations are, and how strong his confidence is.
If necessary, let alone twenty-five million hong kong dollar, what if he throws out his entire fortune?
He started from scratch, after all.
And it's that enviable, infuriating twenty years old...
Do you think he wouldn't dare to do it?
Szeto Ho-Nam's heart tightened... a sudden fear of Lin Feng arose within him.
There was no way around it. Anyone facing such a young tycoon... especially one with immense combat power who wasn't afraid to fight to the death, would instinctively feel a sense of fear.
The police backing down from this... seemed like a perfectly reasonable thing to do.
So, I should cooperate with Lin Feng's actions?
Uncle Ben said without hesitation:
Since you have an agreement with Lin Feng, do what needs to be done. Don't be afraid.
Lin Feng's reputation can be trusted.
His standing is much higher than yours; he understands what a Triad is better than you do.
Szeto Ho-Nam was thoroughly convinced.
Suddenly, he remembered something.
Uncle Ben, what about Chan Tin-hung, Lui Yiu-Yeung, and Ng Chi-Wai...
Uncle Ben scoffed:
Lui Yiu-Yeung used to think he was a remarkable individual.
But in the end, he merely killed Chan Ho-Nam?
It's simply disgraceful.
Situ quickly said:
Uncle Ben, it's not like that.
My people discovered that these three...
He recounted the actions he had learned about, and Uncle Ben was stunned.
Are these three guys crazy?
I know they're deranged, but they dare to do something so rebellious?
Situ gave a bitter smile:
Uncle Ben, what should we do?
Uncle Ben thought for a moment and asked:
If you tell Camel about this, will he believe it?
Szeto Ho-Nam replied without hesitation:
No!
Not only will he not believe it, but he'll also give me two big slaps.
The Big Boss won't believe those three would dare to do such a thing.
Uncle Ben sighed:
Then what else can we do? We can only watch.
Szeto Ho-Nam was astonished:
Just... just not stop them?
Uncle Ben calmly retorted:
Do you have evidence?
Szeto Ho-Nam shook his head.
Uncle Ben waved his hand impatiently:
Go down!
Szeto Ho-Nam was silent for a long time, then bowed and retreated. He had no other choice.
On the other side, Heung Yim was trembling with anger.
It wasn't just being lectured by a junior Triad member; it was more out of fear.
Lin Feng's extravagant twenty-five million hong kong dollar for justice for Fine B had a far more profound impact than most people realized.
Everyone in the Triad world knows that the pot shouldn't call the kettle black.
Lin Feng dared to offer a twenty-five million hong kong dollar bounty just to find clues about Fine B.
So, could he use twenty-five million hong kong dollar, or even more, to take someone's life?
In this era, let alone twenty-five million hong kong dollar, even for one hundred thousand hong kong dollar to buy a life, there are plenty of people willing to risk everything.
Heung Yim realized he had done something foolish.
Causeway Bay couldn't be held.
This was never Heung Yim's intention; he just wanted to talk to Lin Feng. Who would have thought that an old-fashioned remark would suddenly infuriate Lin Feng!
The car drove along the seaside promenade. After a certain point, Heung Yim stopped and quickly walked towards the sea, where someone was already waiting for him.
I wanted to send a message to Lin Feng, but this kid, with no respect for elders, actually declared war on us.
Lin Feng is too young and impulsive. He said he would drive Sun Yee On out of Causeway Bay in three days.
The man heard this and turned to look at Heung Yim with a half-smile.
His eyes were full of mockery.
Heung Yim's heart instantly tightened.
The man said slowly:
You must not know how popular Lin Feng is in his Mainland.
Heung Yim was greatly alarmed, thinking, 'Oh no.'
We have many ways to contact Lin Feng.
Asking you to convey a message to him this time was merely a convenience.
Heung Yim's heart sank.
The man's voice was very gentle, but it pierced Heung Yim's heart like ice.
We all know Lin Feng's character very well.
Not only is he loyal and righteous, but his Triad reputation is excellent.
He started as a Straw Sandal, and 'resourceful' is the best description for him.
If you show him respect, he will give you considerable respect.
If you try to suppress him, he won't just take the beating without fighting back.
If he didn't have so many excellent qualities, why would we ask you to convey a message to him?
Heung Yim forced a smile and said dryly:
Perhaps it's a misunderstanding.
The man burst out laughing:
I've never known a misunderstanding to make someone like Lin Feng want to drive your Sun Yee On out of Causeway Bay.
The man suddenly turned around, his eyes fixed on Heung Yim.
We chose you, we chose Sun Yee On, to maintain the stability of Hong Kong.
Triad is a great scourge.
The stability of Hong Kong is the highest interest.
If you can do well, then Sun Yee On will always belong to your Xiang family.
But if you have any improper thoughts, we don't mind replacing you.
Sweat poured down Heung Yim's forehead, and he didn't dare to wipe it. He quickly tried to remedy the situation:
I'll go find Lin Feng right away and explain this misunderstanding to him.
The man smiled and shook his head:
No need!
Going now would only add fuel to the fire.
I've said there are many channels to contact Lin Feng, so you don't need to worry about it.
The man glanced at Heung Yim, put on his sunglasses, and left a message:
Take care of yourself.
Then he strode away, leaving Heung Yim staring blankly. It was a long while before he remembered to wipe the cold sweat from his face.
The sweat just wouldn't stop!
Lin Feng, after seeing off Chen Taotao and Fang Ting, didn't plan to stay in Causeway Bay either, so he had Wang Jianguo drive him back to the hilltop villa.
After taking a shower, he pulled out a copy of 'A History of the World' to read. He was engrossed in his reading when Lok Tin-hung suddenly burst in.
What's wrong? Why are you so flustered?
Lok Tin-hung panted and said:
Boss, Chen Taotao and Fang Ting were kidnapped by the Chung Ching Society guys.
Lin Feng put down his book, stood up, and began to change clothes:
What happened?
Lok Tin-hung immediately recounted the incident:
Mr. Chen and Miss Fang were about to leave when Ting Hau-Hai led his men and directly stopped them.
Ting Hau-Hai even beat him up.
Miss Fang tried to stop him but couldn't.
Ting Hau-Hai beat him even harder.
Then, somehow, Ting Hau-Hai tied both of them into the car and took them back to the Chung Ching Society Headquarters.
Lin Feng asked:
What's the source of the information?
Lok Tin-hung explained:
Dai Tau in Causeway Bay happened to see it, but he was alone at the time, so he quietly followed. After confirming that Ting Hau-Hai had taken both of them to the Chung Ching Society Headquarters, he quickly called me.
I thought he was good earlier, so I took him under my wing.
Lin Feng nodded in satisfaction:
You've grown too. Alright, after this is over, give Dai Tau a position as a leader.
We're not like that old fool Fine B.
Lok Tin-hung asked:
Are we going to the Chung Ching Society Headquarters now?
Lin Feng sneered:
Of course we're going, but before we go, I still need to make a few calls.
I just finished dinner, so I'm not too hungry, but having a few crabs as a late-night snack wouldn't be bad either.
Lin Feng actually started making calls.
Brother Kun, I'm planning to eat crabs tonight. Are you interested? PS:
***
Chapter 104: Eliminate the Enemy, All Are Friends (Part 1)
Liang Kun had truly drunk a lot today and was in the middle of relieving his frustrations, so he didn't react immediately:
"Crabs? Why are we eating crabs now?"
"My stomach is so full."
Lin Feng said with regret:
"Then forget it. I'm going to eat The Ding Family's four crabs. If Brother Kun isn't interested, I'll call someone else."
Liang Kun suddenly jolted, fully sobering up:
"What did you say?"
"The Ding Family's four crabs? Chung Ching Society?"
Lin Feng said concisely:
"The Ding Family's crabs don't know what's good for them; they kidnapped my company's senior executive in Causeway Bay."
"I'm going to eat these four crabs."
Liang Kun shoved the woman beneath him aside:
"How can I miss out on eating crabs?"
"Wait, I'll gather my men right away."
"Should I come find you?"
A hint of a smile appeared on Lin Feng's face:
"No need for that. Brother Kun, contact Prince and Hon Ban, and ask them if they're interested."
"If they are, just have them attack the nearest branch."
Liang Kun let out a strange cry:
"They'll definitely come!"
Lin Feng then said:
"I'll call Mr. Chiang."
Liang Kun nodded repeatedly:
"No time to lose, let's notify everyone separately."
"I've disliked those crabs for a long time; they have no respect for rules. Tonight, we'll have an extra meal and eat them!"
Lin Feng smiled as he hung up the phone, then dialed Chiang Tin-Sung.
"Ah Feng, are you done with your business now?"
Chiang Tin-Sung was in a good mood. After Ah Feng was promoted to branch master, big bosses from various Triads came to visit, greatly increasing Hung Hing's influence.
What especially pleased him was that there were no police arrests today at all.
This was an excellent sign.
They say that when you get rich, you establish your character.
As Hung Hing's boss, always being watched by the police, what kind of talk was that? The joy of making money was cut in half.
Look at the other Tycoons in Hong Kong Island, who among them isn't able to do as they please once they have money?
Why couldn't he?
Go legitimate!
No matter what, he had to go legitimate.
Once he went legitimate, he would definitely emulate those Tycoons and throw his weight around. He wanted to see if having money in Hong Kong Island truly allowed one to do whatever they wanted.
Liang Kun and Lin Feng were key to his, Chiang Tin-Sung's, legitimacy.
To go legitimate, he had to withdraw from the Triad.
Then, the successor had to be chosen carefully, otherwise, even if he withdrew, he would be implicated by a terrible successor.
Lin Feng smiled slightly:
"Mr. Chiang, Chung Ching Society crossed the line. I want to eat crabs."
Chiang Tin-Sung immediately understood:
"The Ding Family's crabs provoked you?"
Lin Feng didn't hide anything from him:
"A senior executive from my financial company was kidnapped by The Ding Family's crabs and taken to Chung Ching Society Headquarters."
"This is a slap in my face."
Chiang Tin-Sung angrily said:
"How is this a slap in your face? This is a slap in Hung Hing's face!"
"The Ding Family's crabs rose very quickly and don't care about any Triad rules at all."
"If Chung Ching Society continues to grow like this, the Triad's atmosphere will be in chaos."
For old, established Triads, fighting and killing were definitely not the mainstream; human relations were.
If an unimportant branch master died, so be it. As long as there was enough compensation, they were still good brothers.
However, there was one thing—
No matter what, you had to follow the rules.
The black and white forest agreement had been in effect for twenty or thirty years and had become a custom.
But this thing needed to be taught by example, and The Ding Family's four crabs were all newcomers; who would tell them?
So these guys became anomalies!
If Lin Feng had said he wanted to deal with other Triads, Liang Kun would advise him to think twice, and most likely, after failing to dissuade him, would follow along silently; Chiang Tin-Sung would ask him to reconsider, and after failing to dissuade him, would observe.
But as soon as they heard about eating crabs, their opinions were surprisingly unified—Go for it!
"Mr. Chiang, Brother Kun has already gone to contact Prince and Sister Thirteen. Do you think that's enough?"
Chiang Tin-Sung pondered for a moment, then immediately said:
"Not enough, all other branches must mobilize."
"The Ding Family's crabs act domineeringly and have offended many people, but because of this, their power has rapidly expanded."
"Before, they hadn't provoked us, and no one was willing to be the first to step forward."
"If we're going to fight, we're going to fight with the Triad's full strength."
"Hung Hing's matters are entrusted to me."
Lin Feng said, seemingly casually:
"Mr. Chiang, Chung Ching Society has offended so many people; it's a bit of a loss if only our Hung Hing steps forward."
Chiang Tin-Sung immediately understood:
"The Ding Family's four crabs are very fat; we can't eat them all ourselves."
"I will contact relevant Triads. Tung Sing, Sun Luen Shing, and Wo Hing Shing, contact them all."
"We're definitely going to eat Chung Ching Society, that crab!"
Lin Feng smiled and said:
"Since Mr. Chiang has arrangements, then I'll be the one to speak with the Police Force."
Chiang Tin-Sung laughed heartily:
"Ah Feng, you truly handle things meticulously."
"You're doing the right thing."
"Tonight, several of our big Triads are acting together; it's a Triad storm."
"If we don't notify the Police Force, they'll be restless."
"Mobilizing the various branches and contacting other Triads is my task."
"You handle contacting the Police Force."
Lin Feng smiled and said:
"After all, I am a Straw Sandal!"
Chiang Tin-Sung thought to himself, a Straw Sandal's function is external liaison, but that doesn't include contacting the government.
However, Lin Feng had connections, and Chiang Tin-Sung would only be happy about this. It meant that if he were to go legitimate in the future, it would be much easier.
Lin Feng's phone rang non-stop.
"Sir Wong, good evening."
Wong Bing-Yiu was about to go to sleep when he suddenly received Lin Feng's call and was so startled that he immediately got up.
"Mr. Lin, you never call unless you need something. What's the matter, calling me so late?"
Lin Feng's voice turned cold:
"Should I thank you? Thank you for sending me that idiot, Heung Yim."
Wong Bing-Yiu complained:
"Mr. Lin, it's a misunderstanding, it's really a damn misunderstanding!"
"The North side wanted to meet you today, but you were hosting Triad bosses, so it wasn't appropriate for me to appear. So I entrusted it to Heung Yim."
"Who would have thought that old bastard would do such a thing..."
Lin Feng scoffed with a cold laugh:
"Judge by actions, not intentions. If you judge by intentions, there are no saints."
"When I look at people's actions, I only look at the results, nothing else."
"The fact is, he caused me trouble today. What do you say we do?"
Wong Bing-Yiu felt greatly wronged:
"How did the dealings between you two great deities get dragged into my business?"
Lin Feng said mockingly:
"It seems that in the future, if I have information, I'll just have to inform Chief Lin of Hong Kong Island more often."
Wong Bing-Yiu's expression immediately changed, and he said with a fawning smile:
"See, you're being too formal."
"We're the long-term partners, after all. How could Old Lin be as close as we are?"
"Mr. Lin, I will definitely convey your dissatisfaction properly and give Sun Yee On a good talking to."
Lin Feng chuckled:
"Enough."
"Your skin is so thick; no wonder you're the Chief of West Kowloon Police Headquarters."
Wong Bing-Yiu took Lin Feng's words as praise; this bit of sarcasm was a minor thing.
"I'm in a good mood today, so I'll give you another big gift."
Wong Bing-Yiu said with a bitter smile:
"I always have a bad feeling."
Lin Feng snorted coldly:
"It's good that you have a bad feeling."
"You know Chen Taotao, right?"
Wong Bing-Yiu nodded repeatedly:
"How could I not know? Former President of Wanguo Bank's Investment Department, he just took down the Stock Demon Chan Man-yin, truly a legend of his generation."
Almost everyone in Hong Kong Island played the stock market, so naturally, they were keenly interested in what happened in the stock market.
The showdown between Chen Taotao and Chan Man-yin contained all the necessary elements for a legend, and even he, the Chief of West Kowloon Police Headquarters, knew about it.
"It's good that you know."
"Tao Tao is my subordinate. We just parted ways, and Chen Taotao was kidnapped."
Wong Bing-Yiu jolted, immediately stood up, and loudly shouted:
"Which bastard did that?"
He couldn't help but be agitated!
Chen Taotao was definitely the king of traffic in Hong Kong Island right now. If the news of his kidnapping spread, the ones who would suffer wouldn't be others, but the Police Force.
"Why are you so loud?"
Lin Feng reprimanded him with dissatisfaction.
The microphone was right next to his ear, and Wong Bing-Yiu's sudden shout was deafening.
Wong Bing-Yiu repeatedly apologized:
"Sorry, Mr. Lin, I couldn't help myself, I couldn't help myself."
"Our Police Force absolutely will not allow such a situation to occur."
"Such a heinous act of kidnapping should not happen in Hong Kong Island."
Lin Feng habitually jabbed:
"If you really did what you said you would, how could Tycoon have been extorted 1.04 billion by Cheuk Tze-keung?"
Wong Bing-Yiu's mouth fell open:
"Holy crap!"
Was this news he was supposed to hear?
Wong Bing-Yiu was panicked.
Lin Feng said mockingly:
"What are you afraid of? You, the Police Force, already knew about this. Some paparazzi were also involved in the investigation. Tycoon didn't listen to you, so you have no responsibility whatsoever."
Wong Bing-Yiu breathed a sigh of relief.
Lin Feng said coldly:
"Chen Taotao is the head of Baisheng Fund, whom I hired. We just finished dinner and parted ways, and he was kidnapped by The Ding Family's crabs."
Wong Bing-Yiu was furious:
"Mr. Lin, rest assured, I will definitely arrest them and bring them to justice."
Lin Feng, however, wasn't having it:
"Gangland matters are settled in the gangland. He touched my people and swept my face."
"Do you think I'm incapable? Do I really need you to step forward?"
Wong Bing-Yiu's mouth was bitter:
"Mr. Lin, what... what do you plan to do?"
Lin Feng said indifferently:
"Didn't I say? I've sent you a big gift. Tonight, the gangland conference has decided to eat crabs together."
Boom!
Wong Bing-Yiu was almost stunned. He quickly recovered and confirmed:
"Gangland conference?"
"How many Triads are going to eat crabs?"
Lin Feng calmly said:
"Hung Hing, Tung Sing, Sun Luen Shing, Wo Hing Shing... or other Triads."
Wong Bing-Yiu really wished he hadn't received this call. Damn it, this was practically a gangland mobilization!
"Mr. Lin, Mr. Lin, you must make it clear to them that they cannot target ordinary people."
Lin Feng rolled his eyes:
"We aren't Chung Ching Society, who don't follow any rules. We only target Chung Ching Society."
"Please trouble Chief Huang to notify the other police districts."
Wong Bing-Yiu gritted his teeth and said:
"No problem."
"I have only one request: tomorrow, I don't want to see those Chung Ching Society guys again."
A smile appeared on Lin Feng's lips:
"I'm already near their headquarters!"
Wong Bing-Yiu picked up the phone in confusion, only to find that the call had already been hung up. He paused for a moment, then reacted, frantically starting to dial:
"Old Lin, it's Old Huang. Tonight, the Triads have a big operation. Those Chung Ching Society bastards have finally provoked someone they shouldn't have..."
"Old Ren, it's Old Huang. Tonight, the Triads have a big operation..."
He called one police district after another, and then notified his own district,
"Chan Yan-kin, it's Wong Bing-Yiu. Those Chung Ching Society bastards have incurred public wrath. Tonight, almost all Triads are going to attack Chung Ching Society."
"Have your military police enforce martial law, and separate all citizens from the Young and Dangerous."
"Tell the brothers to stay alert. Absolutely, absolutely nothing must happen."
As Wong Bing-Yiu's message was transmitted, the entire Police Force went into a state of alert. Those police districts with Chung Ching Society strongholds were even more distressed, quickly separating the strongholds from ordinary citizens.
This action certainly protected the citizens, but it also confined the Chung Ching Society members.
Lin Feng didn't pay attention to any of this. He had been making the call from a car, and he hadn't lied to Wong Bing-Yiu. When he hung up, he had indeed arrived at the entrance of Chung Ching Society's headquarters.
As soon as he got out of the car, Dai Tau walked over:
"Brother Feng."
Lok Tin-hung said from the side:
"Brother Feng, Dai Tau is very capable."
Lin Feng smiled:
"You don't need to tell me. Dai Tau and I are acquaintances."
Dai Tau gave an embarrassed smile.
A few years ago, Liang Kun and Sai B had a good relationship. Their people all knew each other and had either chopped people or been chopped together. How could they not be familiar?
Lin Feng gently patted Dai Tau's shoulder:
"I'm not that idiot Sai B. I told you a long time ago that you're stronger than Chan Ho-Nam."
Lin Feng had indeed said this, but it was the current Lin Feng who said it, not his previous self.
He pulled out a roll of banknotes and handed them to Dai Tau, who hastily refused.
"Take it. You took the rap for Sai B. After you got out, you should have become a Big Boss, but Sai B only has his godson, Chan Ho-Nam, in his eyes."
"You still have to start as a newspaper boy... Sai B really shames our Hung Hing."
"Do you have money on you? And you're still refusing?"
Dai Tau's face was flushed.
Lin Feng calmly said:
"Once you work for me, you must follow my rules."
"Rewards for merit, punishments for mistakes."
"You saw Chen Taotao being tied up and didn't act impulsively by following them to this place, so that's merit."
"Merit deserves a reward!"
"From now on, you'll work with Tin Hung."
"Just do well, and you won't lack status or money."
Dai Tau felt a rush of blood:
"Yes, Brother Feng!"
Lin Feng asked:
"The Ding Family's crabs went up from here?"
Dai Tau quickly nodded:
"Yes, they went up quite a while ago."
"After I called Brother Hong, I've been waiting here and haven't seen anyone come out."
Lin Feng clapped his hands, very satisfied with Dai Tau's attentiveness,
"Your mission is complete. Just wait here. Our people will come later, and you can guide them."
Dai Tau quickly said:
"Brother Feng, what about you?"
Lin Feng smiled:
"Of course, I'm going in to save them!"
Dai Tau hurriedly said:
"I'm coming too!"
Lin Feng waved his hand:
"It's not that I won't let you go, it's that your skills aren't good enough yet."
Dai Tau felt very hurt.
Lin Feng instructed:
"Jianguo, you and Dai Tau wait here."
"Jian Jun, Tin Hung, follow me up!"
With that, Lin Feng took the lead. Wang Jianjun and Lok Tin-hung exchanged glances and followed closely behind him!
Inside the Chung Ching Society headquarters, Fang Ting furiously kicked her feet:
"Ting Hau-Hai, are you crazy? How dare you abduct Tao Tao?"
Fang Ting's hands were tied. Across from her was Chen Taotao, whose face was bruised and swollen from being beaten.
Ting Hau-Hai's face was full of rage:
"Tao Tao?"
"You call him so intimately."
"You're my girlfriend, how dare you be so close to another man?"
Fang Ting was furious:
"Ting Hau-Hai, we haven't had any relationship for a long time. Don't be delusional."
"Tao Tao is my good friend and the manager of Baisheng Fund. If you dare to abduct him, you won't get away with it. The Police Force won't let you go."
Ting Hau-Hai burst into laughter, tears streaming from his eyes:
"Police Force?"
"Do you think I'm afraid of the Police Force?"
"I just abducted the two of you in broad daylight. I'm not afraid of the Police Force."
Fang Ting shouted:
"Ting Hau-Hai, don't do anything foolish. Tao Tao just defeated Chan Man-yin, and the media are scrambling to report on him. If he goes missing, the police won't care about your background or what kind of Big Boss you are; they will catch you."
Ting Hau-Hai yelled:
"I'm so scared!"
Bang!
A heavy punch landed on Chen Taotao's abdomen. He involuntarily hunched over, his mouth wide open.
Ting Hau-Hai was slightly surprised:
"I didn't expect you to be such a tough guy."
Anyone else who took such a blow would have been screaming in pain, or at least begging for mercy.
Chen Taotao, on the other hand, gritted his teeth and endured it.
Ting Hau-Hai's face was full of a sinister grin, his handsome face almost contorted:
"You want to act tough for me, do you?"
"I'll make you act tough!"
Another punch landed on Chen Taotao's abdomen.
Fang Ting screamed:
"Stop hitting him!"
"Tao Tao, Tao Tao, are you alright?"
Chen Taotao struggled to open his eyes and looked at Fang Ting, wanting to cry.
My lady, stop yelling!
The more you yell, the harder this guy hits!
He's mistaking your concern for other emotions.
Just as he was thinking, bang!
Ting Hau-Hai threw another punch. Chen Taotao couldn't hold it in anymore and vomited wildly, even bringing up bile.
Yet, he still didn't utter a sound.
Ting Hau-Hai felt very frustrated, especially in front of Fang Ting, which made him feel utterly disgraced:
"Acting tough in front of your girlfriend, I'll make you act tough!"
Fang Ting suddenly had a moment of clarity and loudly said;
"Ting Hau-Hai, who told you he's my boyfriend? My boyfriend is someone else!"
Ting Hau-Hai suddenly stopped, his eyes bloodshot:
"Good, you can't hide it anymore, can you? You really do have another man."
"Tell me, who is that bastard?"
"I'll kill him!"
Fang Ting looked at Ting Hau-Hai's expression and only felt a strange sensation:
"I knew you were involved with the Triads from the beginning, but I thought you were different from others, that at least your heart was kind."
"Now I realize how foolish I was."
"Ting Hau-Hai, this fierce and domineering manner is your true face, isn't it?"
"Before, you were just putting on a disguise to deceive me."
"Your appearance disgusts me!"
Ting Hau-Hai was so provoked he almost went mad, grabbing Fang Ting's hair:
"Tell me, who is that wild man?"
This was something Ting Hau-Hai had never done to Fang Ting before. At this moment, Fang Ting finally realized what the real Ting Hau-Hai was like.
Fang Ting glared at him with hateful eyes, her words devoid of any warmth:
"What do you have to compare to him?"
"Are you as gentle, as knowledgeable, or as wealthy as he is?"
Ting Hau-Hai was furious:
"Oh, so he's a rich young master?"
"Tell me who he is, and I'll abduct him, and send you two off to be a pair of wild lovebirds together."
Fang Ting sneered:
"Then you'll have to abduct several more people."
"He has many wives, a full seven of them!"
