Chapter 277: Chapter 0277: Cursing Doesn’t Make You a Gentleman, Bite Me If You Can

After He Sheng made the offer, he looked at Chu Feng and said, "Little Friend Chu, you don’t mind if I address you this way, do you?"

Chu Feng shrugged his shoulders and replied, "I don’t mind."

He Sheng smiled slightly and said, "Little Friend Chu, you truly are the most skilled and also the calmest young man I have ever encountered in gambling. If you are willing to help me, I am willing to give you ten percent of the profits as your compensation."

Huang Lan, upon hearing He Sheng’s words, couldn’t help but feel nervous.

He Sheng made his fortune through gambling, and just from this one gambling boat alone, the annual profit was around five billion. Ten percent would be five hundred million, and that doesn’t even include He Sheng’s income from other sources.

If one considered his income from other aspects, Chu Feng’s annual earnings could well be over ten billion. Moreover, this is without taking into account the annual growth of profits, which if included, would be even more terrifying.

Huang Lan was nervous because she feared that Chu Feng would truly accept He Sheng’s offer. After all, it was an astronomical amount, and no one could remain unmoved.

Chu Feng, with his expression unchanged, said, "We can discuss the matter of cooperation later. What we need to discuss now is the current situation."

He Sheng said, "Little Friend Chu, are you really not going to consider it properly?"

Chu Feng answered, "I will consider it, but I prefer to focus on the current issues."

He Sheng glanced at Chu Feng, then at the nervous Huang Lan, and laughed heartily, "Indeed, a hero struggles to surpass a beauty. It seems that compared to Miss Huang’s beauty, these billions of genuine gold and silver are truly like dirt."

"Thank you for the compliment, Elder He," Huang Lan said as she composed herself.

Chu Feng looked at He Sheng and said, "If you keep dwelling on this issue, I feel there’s no need for us to continue this discussion. I don’t care what terms they have offered you, nor do I care about your grudge against Dragon Soul. All I know is that if I can’t take her back home and complete her mission, I will sweep through all your gambling dens. I do what I say!"

The temperature in the room dropped to freezing once again after Chu Feng spoke.

However, He Sheng’s face still wore a smile as he said, "Little Friend Chu, if you want to take Miss Huang and leave, I have no objections at all. I can arrange for a plane right now and let you both leave."

Chu Feng, unbending, said, "What I said was to take her away and complete the mission."

The smile on He Sheng’s face faded somewhat as he said, "Little Friend Chu, I think you are a young hero, a rare young talent. But Dragon Soul’s actions have greatly disappointed me, so I cannot let you complete the mission."

Chu Feng replied, "Dragon Soul’s actions have also greatly disappointed me, but I must complete this mission. Not for me, but for her. It’s my principle. If you agree, I am willing to continue being your friend. If you don’t, I don’t mind having one more enemy. I already have plenty."

Huang Lan said, "Elder He, you are highly respected. This incident with Dragon Soul is not as you think. If I can’t complete this mission, I indeed will face severe punishment. But Elder He, if you offend Dragon Soul, your days might not be easy either."

He Sheng’s tone suddenly grew colder as he said, "Are you threatening me with Dragon Soul?"

As soon as He Sheng’s words fell, the four top experts behind him also radiated their killing intent.

Chu Feng, with a piercing gaze, stared at He Sheng and said, "Threatening you doesn’t need Dragon Soul; I can threaten you now. If any of those four dares to make a move, I can assure you, you’ll be the first one they hit."

After Chu Feng spoke, he flicked his finger, and the toughened glass behind He Sheng shattered in response.

"Inner Strength released! Xuan Level Expert!"

Nine Points and Mahjong, seeing the skill Chu Feng displayed, couldn’t help but their pupils contract.

Huang Lan’s beautiful eyes also showed shock. Just now, from below, she thought Chu Feng had used some minor trick. But now it seemed that Chu Feng had truly become a Xuan Level Expert. A Xuan Level Expert under twenty years old, there was not one in the entire Dragon Soul, and probably not even among the forces Huang Lan knew of.

"Do you think I’m afraid of dying?" He Sheng said unyieldingly.

Chu Feng said, "I know you’re not afraid of dying, but I also know that you don’t want to be bullied like this without being able to fight back, dying a meek and pathetic death."

After a pause, Chu Feng added, "I’m afraid of dying that way too."

He Sheng’s expression shifted uncertainly, finally asking, "What do you want me to do?"

Chu Feng said, "You don’t need to do anything because I know it’s impossible for you to help me. So you don’t need to do anything, I’ll handle it."

He Sheng pondered for a moment before saying, "Deal!"

Chu Feng revealed a smile, saying, "I always knew Elder He, you are a smart man. I send my master’s regards to you."

He Sheng asked, "Who is your master?"

Chu Feng smiled and said, "My master is Zhang Shisan, Elder He should be familiar."

Upon hearing Chu Feng’s words, He Sheng’s expression changed, saying, "You’re Senior Zhang’s disciple?"

Huang Lan said, "Yes, Chu Feng is Tributor Zhang, his only close disciple."

He Sheng laughed heartily, saying, "Losing to the disciple of Senior Zhang, I, Old He, do not feel wronged at all."

Chu Feng smiled and said, "Elder He, you haven’t lost; we could at best call it a draw. After all, she and I are still your hostages, aren’t we?"

He Sheng paused, then burst into laughter, saying, "Right! Right! A draw it is. No wonder you weren’t tempted by the price I was willing to pay. Given you are Senior Zhang’s disciple, even if I gave you the entire casino ship, I doubt you’d be tempted."

Chu Feng’s eyes lit up, saying, "Elder He, I’m not as noble as you think. If you really gave the entire casino ship to me, I wouldn’t turn it down."

Upon hearing Chu Feng’s words, He Sheng also laughed loudly.

As Chu Feng watched He Sheng laughing heartily, he also touched his nose and said, "I knew it would end up like this, the moment we start talking business, you begin laughing it off."

"Take Little Friend Chu and Miss Huang to the best guest room to rest. Tonight, I will host a dinner for the two valued guests!" said He Sheng.

"Yes!"

Naturally, a servant responded and then led Chu Feng and Huang Lan to the top floor of the casino ship, to the guest room with the best view and the finest facilities.

"No need to check, Elder He, being such a sly fox, is much smarter than we think. He won’t plant any listening devices," said Chu Feng, looking at Huang Lan.

Huang Lan rolled her eyes at Chu Feng and said, "You think I’m dumber than you. I’m not looking for listening devices; I’m looking for a safer place to hide the cheque, lest you steal it and run off while I’m taking a bath."

On hearing Huang Lan’s words, Chu Feng also couldn’t help but feel a blaze of anger, saying, "You silly woman, do you think I’m as greedy as you? You know it’s a trap, yet you jump right in. Do I, a proper man, need your protection?"

Despite feeling quite touched by Chu Feng’s words, Huang Lan still puffed up her chest and said, "Calling me names is no gentlemanly act. If you’re so capable, why don’t you bite me!"
