Chapter 509: Chapter 0511: Coming to Demand a Person

This night was restless for Jin Yu, and it was restless for the entire East River as well.

Because everything had undergone too many shifts, too many changes. Some people were feeling smug about their decisions, some regretted their choices, while others were actively seeking connections, looking for opportunities to realign.

Chu Feng, meanwhile, was busy making a phone call to Huang Lan.

When it came to setting up a research and development team, Chu Feng was utterly clueless. The only person Chu Feng could think of and trust at the same time was Huang Lan.

Huang Lan was well aware of the situation in East River, so Chu Feng didn’t need to explain the ins and outs to him.

Huang Lan said, "I’ve asked Edward about this. He said he has some friends in the energy sector who are purely scientific researchers. They don’t work for anyone, they only work for the science they believe in. Such people should be reliable."

Chu Feng asked, "Can Edward get in touch with them?"

Huang Lan replied, "No problem, Edward has already contacted them. And having heard about it, they are already preparing to rush to East River. It will take some time, though, and some formalities."

Chu Feng said, "I’m not in a hurry for that."

After a pause, Huang Lan said, "I’m aware of what’s happening, and Dragon Soul must know too. Now that you have this technology, there might be people from Dragon Soul coming to you for it, so be prepared for that."

"Why should I? This is my brother’s thing. When it was in the hands of the Jin Family, they didn’t come asking for it. Now that it’s in my hands, they have the nerve to come asking with a straight face. No matter who it is, if they dare to touch my brother’s stuff, they have to get past me first!" Chu Feng responded assertively.

Huang Lan said, "I’m just giving you a heads-up. There might not actually be anyone who will come asking. After all, now you have a good master. Tributor Zhang’s breakthrough to Earth Level has attracted a lot of attention. With your master around, Dragon Soul wouldn’t dare do anything to you."

Chu Feng said, "Why do I detect a hint of sourness in your voice? Are you envious or jealous?"

Huang Lan stated, "I’m resentful!"

Chu Feng laughed exaggeratedly, "Then feel free to resent all you want. After all, I have a strong backer to rely on, and you don’t. If you want to resent me, go right ahead."

Huang Lan retorted, "You always fall back on your old trade—being cheeky!"

...

After talking with Huang Lan, Chu Feng also had a clearer idea about setting up his own R&D department.

With R&D and channels in place, all that was left was for Chu Feng to hold the fort.

A night’s rest also left Chu Feng fully refreshed.

Today was Sunday, and Chu Feng didn’t have to go to school.

But for Qin Mei and the other three, they had to go to the company. Having not been to the company for three consecutive days, a pile of tasks had accumulated awaiting their attention.

After dropping off the four at the company, Chu Feng plotted to swing by the An Family for some breakfast.

Upon arrival at the An household, Chu Feng saw that An Wenxing was already able to get out of bed and move around a bit, albeit slowly. After lying down for too long, the muscles needed some time to adjust.

"Big cousin, recovering well, aren’t you? It looks like in a few more months, you won’t have any problem finding a girlfriend," Chu Feng said with a smile.

An Wenxing replied, "That joke isn’t funny at all."

Chu Feng remarked, "I can’t believe you’re still so dull after surviving a car accident. I’m going to have breakfast with Rongrong; do you want to join us?"

An Wenxing said, "Alright."

The family sat down to breakfast together. An Wenxing said, "I heard you agreed to Jin Yu’s cooperation request? He is a dangerous man, especially after our father died in such an unclear manner, I’m afraid he might become even more dangerous."

Chu Feng said, "Don’t worry, I’ve done something to his body, so there’s no need to worry about him biting back. Taming a wolf is much more useful than taming a dog."

An Wenxing nodded and said, "Indeed. The greater the risk, the higher the return. Cooperating with Jin Yu definitely carries risks, but as long as they’re controllable, what remains is the high return."

Chu Feng said, "By the way, big nephew, I’m planning to base the research and development of the Holy Stele in the An Family. I’ve already used my connections to find some internationally renowned experts in the field of energy. When you get better, you can make the arrangements."

An Wenxing nodded and said, "Alright."

"Can you two keep quiet for a while, and just have breakfast without discussing work?" An Rongrong pouted and complained.

"Okay! We’ll shut up," An Wenxing said affectionately to his sister.

As for Chu Feng, he replied to An Rongrong’s dissatisfaction by eating quickly and keeping to himself.

After breakfast, Chu Feng went to play chess with Old Master An.

Since retiring from active duties, Old Master An’s only interest and hobby was to find a way to break the intricate chess setup. Unfortunately, he hadn’t found a way to solve it after all these years.

"Young Master Chu, there’s someone outside claiming to be Bai Jiahang. He is here to see you," a servant from the An Family reported to Chu Feng.

Old Master An tossed a chess piece back into the box and said, "No more playing, it’s boring. Kid, you go and attend to your matters."

"Grandpa An, it’s fine, I can continue to play with you. Let him wait," Chu Feng said.

Old Master An said, "Kid, don’t pretend you don’t understand, what does it mean that he has found our An Family?"

Chu Feng said, "There are only two possibilities. First, he has come to apologize and wants to see me casually. Second, he has come to threaten me, to force me to go out and meet with him."

Old Master An asked, "Which possibility do you think is more likely?"

Chu Feng said, "Both are very likely, but it depends on when I go out. If I go out now, it’ll be the first possibility. If I go out later, it’ll be the second."

Old Master An said, "Although I agree with your view and really hope to see the future you described, reality is reality. Our goal is to become a prominent family, and we still need their endorsement."

Upon hearing these words, Chu Feng replied, "Grandpa An, I understand. I’ll go see him."

Chu Feng went to the reception room and saw Bai Jiahang who had brought gifts along.

"Brother Chu, I’ve finally met you. Nowadays, Brother Chu is the hottest name in East River. It’s really not easy to see you," Bai Jiahang said with a smile.

Chu Feng casually sat on the sofa, looking at Bai Jiahang and said, "Is it? Well, haven’t you met me now?"

Chu Feng was never good at making small talk with enemies.

Without waiting for Bai Jiahang’s response, Chu Feng took the initiative and said, "Alright, if you have something to say, just say it. Your time is precious, and mine is quite valuable too. The old master is waiting to play chess with me, and Rongrong is waiting to go shopping with me."

"Brother Chu really is a man of few words, so I’ll get straight to the point. I’ve come to take back Bai Jiarui," Bai Jiahang didn’t want to spend too much time with Chu Feng, who wasn’t good at chatting, so he cut straight to the chase.
