Chapter 281: Chapter 0282: Asking for a Favor
He Sheng was startled by Chu Feng’s words and asked, "Little Friend Chu, what do you mean by that?"
Chu Feng replied, "Elder He, from the moment you got on board, you started taking advantage of my youth and constantly tested me. To say that with your skills, you didn’t know my master is currently at the An Family, I find it hard to believe. Since you knew, you have been giving me trouble right from the moment I boarded. I can consider this as a kind of test, and that’s not a problem.
"But look at us now, eating a meal, and you’re still bullying me. It was clearly you who wanted to place all your bets on me, you were practically begging me. Yet, look at you, sir; there’s not even a hint of humility. I admit, forming ties with you is beneficial for me, but if it’s not an equal relationship, then I genuinely find it meaningless. What do you think, Elder He?"
From the beginning, He Sheng had an air of superiority. If Chu Feng accepted his demands or formed an alliance with He Sheng under these conditions, he would certainly be suppressed at every turn, which was not what Chu Feng wanted.
He Sheng looked at Chu Feng and eventually burst out laughing, saying, "Good! Little Friend Chu, I like young people like you. From now on, let’s address each other as brothers."
Chu Feng replied, "Brothers should drink from large bowls and eat big chunks of meat."
He Sheng gave a bitter smile and said, "Brother Chu, it’s not that I’m putting on airs. It’s just that my body really can’t handle it."
Chu Feng replied, "It’s just diabetes. It’s easy to handle. First, you join me for food and drinks, and I’ll help you solve your diabetes issue."
He Sheng, trembling slightly, said, "Brother Chu, do you really have a way?"
Diabetes is a global challenge, and Elder He had seen all the famous doctors in the world, who were helpless against it.
Moreover, He Sheng’s diabetes was severe, and doctors had told him that it was not only impacting his quality of life but had also begun to threaten his lifespan.
Chu Feng replied, "You should know whose disciple I am. I don’t know how my master helped you in the past, but clearly, you got diabetes after meeting my master. If you had this condition when you met him, you wouldn’t need me to intervene."
He Sheng, overjoyed, said, "Good! Today, I’ll accompany Brother Chu, and we won’t stop until we’re completely drunk."
Clearly, Chu Feng was intentionally indebting He Sheng to himself, causing He Sheng to feel obligated.
In doing so, Chu Feng was not only leveling the playing field but was also gaining the upper hand.
"It’s been so long since I’ve felt this good," He Sheng said as he heartily consumed the meat.
Chu Feng smiled and said, "Elder brother, you can feel this great every day from now on."
He Sheng smiled and said, "Meeting you and Senior Zhang is the greatest fortune of my life."
Chu Feng said, "Brother He, I feel that we are now close comrades. Just tell me straight what you expect from me. I’m a straightforward person and not good at beating around the bush."
He Sheng smiled and replied, "I like you just the way you are, Brother Chu."
After a pause, He Sheng’s expression turned serious as he said, "Brother Chu, I know I can’t always remain aloof. Whether I’m in the country or leave, I eventually have to choose sides. But He Sheng knows well where his roots lie. My blood is Huaxia’s blood. I know what I should choose, and I can cooperate with Dragon Soul. But what I want isn’t to be restricted and monitored, of course, if the nation needs me, I will certainly do my duty."
He Sheng had made his stance clear, and Chu Feng turned to Huang Lan, saying, "You decide on this. You’re part of Dragon Soul and also my superior."
Huang Lan knew that Chu Feng was helping her, and she replied seriously, "Elder He, Dragon Soul has no intention of coercing you. Of course, I admit that within Dragon Soul, there are different suggestions and voices. But Elder He, I hope you can trust me, Dragon Soul still upholds the national interest. My visit this time is purely for the mission."
Although what Huang Lan said wasn’t very substantial, it was already a form of commitment and assurance for He Sheng.
He Sheng naturally was not a fool and chuckled, "With Captain Huang’s assurance, I feel at ease. But Captain Huang can also be assured, as I, He Sheng, have lived through that era, and I know how tough it can be. Although I run gambling, I still have some awareness."
Chu Feng smiled and said, "Brother He, you don’t need to speak so earnestly. If you had any other intentions, I don’t think my master would have helped you."
Huang Lan also offered a faint smile and said, "I also trust Tributor Zhang’s judgment."
He Sheng followed with a big laugh, saying, "I will not let down Senior Zhang’s expectations."
"Brother, let’s just drink," Chu Feng said, raising his glass.
"Sure!"
"Sure!"
While Chu Feng and He Sheng were having a good time drinking, Senior Ma had returned with his people.
"Boss, I found the person, but he ran away," Senior Ma murmured.
"Senior Ma, with your Cultivation and strength, if that person could actually escape from your hands, then he probably didn’t need to run," Chu Feng said.
Senior Ma replied, "That person’s strength is indeed not as good as mine. But his Qinggong is quite impressive. In the end, he jumped into the sea and escaped."
Chu Feng looked toward Huang Lan and asked, "Sister Lan, within Dragon Soul, are there many who are below the Profound Level in strength but excel in Qinggong?"
Huang Lan pondered for a moment and replied, "Not many. Just two people, one is Shenhang and the other is Shandian. Shandian wouldn’t do such a thing; it must be Shenhang."
The reason Huang Lan disclosed this information about Dragon Soul was also to express an attitude, showing that she truly intended to cooperate with He Sheng.
He Sheng nodded and said, "Now that we know who it is, that’s good."
This matter also came to an end here. Dragon Soul was a massive entity. Even if there were internal issues, it wasn’t something He Sheng, a businessman, could influence.
"Brother He, I have to go to school tomorrow, so I won’t disturb you any longer. Please arrange for someone to take us back," Chu Feng mentioned after having lunch and after treating He Sheng’s illness.
He Sheng said, "Brother Chu, why the hurry? I haven’t even had the chance to thank you yet."
Chu Feng replied, "There will be other opportunities."
"Brother Chu, you must accept this," He Sheng insisted, pulling out a cheque and placing it in Chu Feng’s hand.
Seeing He Sheng hand over a cheque for one hundred million USA Dollars, Chu Feng also asked, "Brother He, what does this mean?"
He Sheng explained, "Brother Chu, don’t misunderstand. This does indeed include my gratitude for saving my life. But also, I would like to ask for a favor—"
Chu Feng replied, "Brother, you’re being too formal. Just tell me what I can do for you."
He Sheng said, "Then I’ll get straight to the point. I would like to request your help in participating in next year’s World Gambling King Competition!"
