The King of Urban Mercenaries
Chapter 156 - 156 156 Betting Against Ling Weiwei

156: Chapter 156: Betting Against Ling Weiwei 156: Chapter 156: Betting Against Ling Weiwei “Minister Ling, to personally welcome us is truly overwhelming for us old-timers.” At the entrance of the Moongaze Building, following Wang Yongsheng’s arrival, the rest of the Mu Group’s board members along with some executives and shareholders, continued to arrive.

Ling Weiwei, as Mu Shanshan’s top confidante, won the favor effortlessly from these shareholders and directors, regardless of their original factions, especially after Han Zhenhai’s escape.

One by one, they extended their hands from afar or opened their arms towards Ling Weiwei.

“Liu, help find a cool spot for Director Sun’s bodyguard to wait.”

“Liu, take Mr.

Zhao upstairs.”

For those directors or shareholders who were less tactful, Lin Fei only needed to open his mouth, and Liu Hui, along with other security personnel who regained their positions thanks to Lin Fei, would swarm up and handle them personally.

Initially, Liu Hui and the others were somewhat restrained, knowing that these attending directors and shareholders were not ones that ordinary security guards like themselves could afford to offend.

However, after Lin Fei instructed Liu Hui that he would take responsibility for any fallout, Liu Hui and the other guards became confident and more aggressive.

From the looks of Liu Hui and his team, if Lin Fei were to ask them to throw out one of the attending directors, they would definitely not hesitate.

Lin Fei was quite pleased with the performance of Liu Hui and his team, feeling it was worth sacrificing his first date with Mu Shanshan.

“Lin Fei, isn’t this a bit too much?

I’m worried these directors might collectively complain to Chairman Mu about you.” Seeing Ling Weiwei’s response, Lin Fei was clearly not as content with the behavior of Liu Hui and his team, although Ling Weiwei was quite satisfied with their previous action of throwing out Wang Yongsheng’s two bodyguards.

But not all the attending directors and shareholders were like Wang Yongsheng.

Such indiscriminate actions from Lin Fei, regardless of faction or character, had Ling Weiwei a bit worried for him.

“Shall we make a bet?”

Lin Fei, the instigator, clearly had no such worries as Ling Weiwei.

He had actually hoped that Liu Hui and his men would be even more aggressive.

“What are we betting on?!” Sensing Lin Fei’s suggestion, Ling Weiwei, who knew Lin Fei’s nature well, became instantly alert.

Sensing Ling Weiwei’s cautiousness, Lin Fei awkwardly smiled and solemnly said, “It’s simple.

We bet that these directors I’ve intimidated won’t complain about me.”

“How can you be so sure?!” As soon as Lin Fei finished speaking, Ling Weiwei couldn’t help retorting, her beautiful eyes staring intensely at Lin Fei as if trying to see through his heart.

“That’s none of your business.” Lin Fei thought to himself that Ling Weiwei was taking the bait, yet his expression remained composed as he confidently said, “What I want to know now is, does Minister Ling dare to make this bet with me?”

“Why should I make this bet with you?” Ling Weiwei, a corporate elite, clearly wasn’t easily swayed by a few provocative remarks.

Although Ling Weiwei was curious about where Lin Fei’s confidence came from, considering Lin Fei’s shameless nature, she chose not to engage.

Of course, the main reason was that, in her view, whether she won or lost the bet proposed by Lin Fei, it held little positive significance for her.

If the intimidated directors did end up complaining to Mu Shanshan about Lin Fei, driven by personal feelings, Ling Weiwei would undoubtedly defend Lin Fei at all costs.

If the directors didn’t complain about Lin Fei, then she, Ling Weiwei, would clearly lose to Lin Fei.

Such a no-win bet, Ling Weiwei naturally wouldn’t participate with Lin Fei.

As soon as Lin Fei finished speaking, Ling Weiwei’s pretty eyes narrowed and then suddenly widened, “Are you serious?”

Lin Fei waved his hand, showing a bit of impatience, “Don’t believe it then, take it or leave it.”

“Fine, I’ll take that bet!” Seeing Lin Fei’s impatience, Ling Weiwei, who was initially hesitant, quickly committed, directly agreeing to the bet with Lin Fei.

Although Ling Weiwei had significant doubts about Lin Fei’s character, seizing an opportunity to suppress Shen Peini, her romantic rival, was something Ling Weiwei didn’t want to pass up.

Although Ling Weiwei had previously teamed up with Shen Peini in a hotel to check Lin Fei and even reached some cooperation intentions concerning Lin Fei,

women tend to be fickle, particularly when it comes to emotions, often displaying extreme selfishness.

Just like Ling Weiwei at this moment.

Without being certain about who Lin Fei’s wife was, even suspecting that Lin Fei might not have a wife at all, Ling Weiwei had already regarded Shen Peini as her primary romantic rival.

As the General Affairs Director of Mu Group and the ideal lover of many male employees within Mu Group, Ling Weiwei had her unique charm and confidence.

She believed that if Lin Fei could keep the terms of the bet and not interact with Shen Peini for a month, she stood a good chance of keeping Lin Fei firmly by her side.

“Tell me, if I lose, what do you want me to do?” Suppressing Shen Peini and monopolizing Lin Fei were clearly delightful prospects for Ling Weiwei.

However, knowing Lin Fei’s nature well, she was also aware that Lin Fei must have something up his sleeve since he dared to make such a significant promise.

“No way!”

Ling Weiwei clearly understood what Lin Fei intended.

Immediately, she decisively rejected Lin Fei’s suggestion.

Although Ling Weiwei hoped to strike at Shen Peini, her rival, it was quite evident that she did not want to risk herself over a bet.

It wasn’t a matter of willingness; emotionally, Ling Weiwei couldn’t accept it.
