Chapter 288: Chapter 0288: My Dream

Shen Yan’er poured Long Fei tea, starting the tea ceremony, pouring the water, and flipping the teacup—all in one fluid motion.

She asked, "I guess you’re here for Lin Yingying, aren’t you?"

Long Fei took the teacup, frowning, "How did you know?"

Shen Yan’er smiled, "It’s simple. Besides Lin Yingying, who else could make you come here looking for a backdoor?"

Long Fei laughed, admitting, "Right, Yingying has recently taken an interest in the West City Industrial Park project. It seems the Wuu Family is also involved; the situation is a bit tricky, so I wanted to ask you to help."

Shen Yan’er said, "I’m aware of this matter. Do you know why it’s so difficult for Lin’s Group?"

"Why?"

Long Fei was curious, considering the relationship between Lin Yingying and the Shen Family, the city officials should be willing to show some courtesy.

But this time, they had chosen the Wuu Family.

Shen Yan’er sipped her tea and clarified for him, "Because my little uncle is also involved in this project, and his business partner is none other than the Wuu Family."

"I see."

Long Fei massaged his temples, thinking that he had sought help from a competitor.

The renown of Shen Weibin, the third young master of the Shen Family, was not unfamiliar to him.

The backer of Binhai City’s top man, He Hongtao, was this young master.

Shen Yan’er teased, "What, feeling disheartened already?"

Long Fei asked her, "May I ask if you have any good strategies?"

He finally had a chance to help Lin Yingying and didn’t want to give up so easily.

Shen Yan’er said, "My little uncle is the most idle in the family. Our grandfather has scolded him several times, but it’s no use. He loves to dabble in hobbies—antiques, jade, calligraphy, and paintings, he’ll play with anything strange and exotic. Recently, he’s become fascinated with Daoist philosophy and has gotten quite close with a Feng Shui Master from Xianggang. If you can convince him, he’ll easily ditch the Wuu Family. Because the Feng Shui Master is connected by the Wuu Family, he gave them some face."

"Understood!"

Long Fei immediately felt much more at ease. Daoist philosophy was his forte.

When it came to theoretical knowledge, he was confident that no one in the Secular World could outmatch him.

Shen Yan’er said, "You, an outsider to this world, are nevertheless mingling in the mundane affairs, wasting your cultivation. If you’re willing, I can introduce you to a newly-established organization. It’s full of people like us, and it will definitely help with your cultivation."

Long Fei laughed, "I’m used to being a loner, I’ve never been keen on joining any organizations."

Shen Yan’er reminded him, "Long Fei, the world has changed; it’s evolving faster than either of us can imagine. Before, your cultivation allowed you to dominate the Ancient Martial World. But now that’s changing. In less than a year, you’ll find that the world will have entered a new era. I don’t want you to fall behind, nor do I want you to indulge in trivial romantic affairs. So please, join me, will you?"

Previously, she had always revered Long Fei as a senior.

But now, she addressed him as an equal.

Long Fei knew she must have encountered even more exalted individuals.

Ever since he began his cultivation, he had known he would face things beyond the Secular World’s imagination.

He responded calmly, "Miss Shen, perhaps everyone has their own pursuits. My current pursuit is to make the women by my side happy. Staying with them is my dream."

A hint of disappointment flashed across Shen Yan’er’s face as she solemnly said, "Well then, if that’s the case, I won’t insist any further. This weekend, my little uncle is hosting a private gathering. I’ll introduce you then."

"The tea is good. I hope to have it again in the future."

Having finished his light tea, Long Fei put down his teacup and bid farewell to Shen Yan’er.

He could see the pride in her words, as if she was about to soar into the skies, completely transcending these common folk.

Everyone has their aspirations, and Long Fei didn’t say much more.

If she valued him, they would still be friends.

If not, then he would consider her just another passerby.

Shen Yan’er saw him out, regretfully saying, "You have a unique talent; why won’t you listen to me? The world has changed, and commoners will eventually become insignificant as ants. Why bother mixing with them?"

After Long Fei left, he didn’t hurry away.

Instead, he detected the place with the strongest fluctuation of spiritual energy and took the opportunity to sit down and meditate.

Having made the trip, which had cost him close to a hundred, it would be a pity not to take something with him.

Having breached the Foundation Establishment Realm, his bodily functions had experienced an immense development.

Especially his various senses, which had become far from ordinary, he could sense the presence of Spiritual Energy without even needing a Compass.

The location where the Shen Family’s mansion was constructed had good Feng Shui.

But the Feng Shui Master who chose the site was not a Cultivator.

He picked a place that could only absorb some natural energies, but couldn’t attract Spiritual Energy.

Therefore, the distribution of Spiritual Energy in the wetland park was still quite abundant.

Long Fei sat for a while under this tree and for a while in that pavilion.

His body carried a magnetic field that drew all the surrounding Spiritual Energy to him without missing a strand, all of which he refined into his Dantian.

By the time he finished sitting, the sky was almost dark.

Wang Xiaoya and Leilei had finished work early today, each picked a new dress from the store, and were ready to go show support for Zhang Li.

Wang Xiaoya made a call to Long Fei, telling him to hurry over.

Long Fei was already in the car, how could he forget about this matter.

Even if Wang Xiaoya didn’t want him to go, he still had to.

What kind of place was a clubhouse, a jumble of all sorts of people, Long Fei was worried that Wang Xiaoya and Leilei might get hurt!

When he arrived, Wang Xiaoya and Leilei were already ready.

One was in a white dress and the other in a black dress.

Both had done up their hair, exposing their clean foreheads.

The waist-fitted dresses looked a bit like gown styles and were very form-fitting when put on,

with their calves partially exposed and their slender waists and shapely hips, they looked almost like models.

Long Fei couldn’t help staring blankly, he hadn’t expected Leilei to clean up so nicely.

Usually, she dressed for work, looking every bit the career woman.

Now, she seemed quite feminine.

Compared with her, Wang Xiaoya’s face was much softer, a picture of gentle and virtuous charm.

Wang Xiaoya smiled at him and asked, "What’s up, staring dumbfounded?"

Leilei also curled her lips and smiled, her face blushing slightly.

Long Fei joked, "I’m a bit surprised, you two have completely charmed me."

"Go on with you!"

Wang Xiaoya chuckled softly, opened the car door, and got in.

Leilei had an Audi A6, perfect for catching a ride.

Leilei didn’t get in immediately but took the initiative to open the back door for Long Fei, inviting him to sit in first.

Wang Xiaoya raised an eyebrow at this, thinking that her best friend was showing a bit too much respect for Long Fei.

After Leilei got in the car and was about to drive,

Wang Xiaoya suddenly frowned at Long Fei and asked, "Aren’t you going to change your clothes?"

After all, they were heading to a fancy place tonight, yet Long Fei was dressed in nothing more than a plain T-shirt and jeans, looking like a poor college student.

Leilei stroked her chin, sizing up Long Fei and suggested, "We still have some men’s clothing in stock at our warehouse. Should we get him to change into one?"

Wang Xiaoya was about to agree.

Long Fei quickly waved his hands and said, "Please, you two, leave me alone. I’m quite comfortable in these clothes. Besides, Zhang Li is the one treating, and the main character is her boyfriend. What’s the use of me dressing up so nicely?"

"You have a point!"

Wang Xiaoya shrugged her shoulders, thinking to herself that Zhang Li’s boyfriend was nearing fifty anyway.

If Long Fei were dressed up too handsomely, he might just steal the thunder from the old man.
