Chapter 248 - 248 248 The Young Master Gave You a Chance

248: Chapter 248: The Young Master Gave You a Chance 248: Chapter 248: The Young Master Gave You a Chance “No wonder he could give the young master a slight disadvantage, at least he’s got some guts.” A skinny old man in a tailcoat emerged from the darkness, slowly walking towards Lin Fei, who was surrounded by several burly men in suits.

“Young master?!” Watching the skinny old man in a tailcoat approaching him, Lin Fei exhaled a puff of smoke and couldn’t help but shake his head and sigh, “I thought some beauty took a fancy to my dashing good looks, hence the elaborate plan to invite me here.

You guys—have really let me down!”

As Lin Fei sighed and shook his head, the tense atmosphere between the two parties dissipated instantly.

The tailcoat-wearing old man, who had emerged with a solemn face, couldn’t help but have a momentary freeze in his expression.

The several burly men in suits, who subtly surrounded Lin Fei in the center, twitched their facial muscles to varying degrees due to Mr.

Lin’s sigh and headshake.

“Smooth talker!” Regaining his composure, the old man in the tailcoat sneered coldly, “I really don’t know what that girl from the Mu Family was thinking, promoting such a slick guy like you to be the deputy director of the Mu Group Security Department.”

“You want to know why I got promoted?”

“A man about to die always speaks good words; listening won’t hurt.”

Seeing the tailcoat-wearing old man showing a listening pose, Lin Fei casually threw away the cigarette butt, crushed it underfoot, looked up at the sky, and said somewhat profoundly, “Because, I’m handsome!”

Silence, dead silence.

Even under the chilling and tense night air, the several men in suits surrounding Lin Fei almost couldn’t contain the urge to burst into laughter.

After a prolonged silence, the tailcoat-wearing old man took a deep breath and said sternly with a cold face, “No wonder the young master grits his teeth every time he mentions you.

You really are quite hateful!”

“Am I that familiar with your young master?”

Mr.

Lin was somewhat puzzled.

They hijacked him in the middle of the night, a bunch of people half not talking, and that was fine.

Finally, when a principal character appeared, it was all ‘young master, young master’.

It’s not ancient times; nowadays, any Tom, Dick, or Harry can call themselves a young master.

At least tell Mr.

Lin who your young master is.

“Do you really not know, or are you just playing dumb?!” Lin Fei was puzzled and did not understand, but the skinny old man in the tailcoat instead burst out scolding in anger.

It seemed as if not knowing his young master was a grave offense.

“Are you going to tell me or not?

If not, I’m leaving.” Mr.

Lin really had no idea who the tailcoat-wearing old man’s young master was.

There were plenty of people, both at home and abroad, that Mr.

Lin had offended; you can’t expect him to remember every single enemy, can you?

Even if Mr.

Lin really did have such a memory, he certainly did not have the patience.

Mr.

Lin got out of his president wife’s BMW and followed them here, just to find out clear who was trying to go after him.

If he had known who was targeting him, would Mr.

Lin be a fool to leave Mu Shanshan, his stunningly beautiful president wife, and not flirt with her, instead following these people such a distance in the middle of the night?

It was only to figure out who was after him, Mr.

Lin, so he could resolve the issue once and for all and not be waylaid and murdered in the middle of the night again.

Why couldn’t they understand the good intentions of Mr.

Lin, the high-ranking official?

What a waste of time!

“Leave?

After swallowing fifty million of my Fang Family’s money, do you think you can still leave?!” Lin Fei was annoyed, and the lean old man in a tailcoat seemed even more irked than Mr.

Lin, the high-ranking official.

The look on his face suggested he would have loved nothing more than to devour Mr.

Lin alive!

“So, you were sent by that pretty boy Fang Wenxi?

It’s been so long; I thought he had forgotten about this matter.” Hearing about the fifty million from the old man in the tailcoat, Lin Fei finally understood the background of the people who had kidnapped him in the middle of the night.

At the same time, Lin Fei also realized why these guys had singled him out and let his chairwoman wife from the Mu Family go free.

At first, Lin Fei had thought these guys were enemies from abroad, especially dispatched to seek revenge on him.

It was understandable that Mr.

Lin, the high-ranking official, did not take that fifty million seriously; to put it more precisely, he didn’t hold Fang Wenxi in high regard at all.

Compared to Lin Fei’s former vicious and ruthless adversaries abroad, who would stop at nothing to achieve their goals, Fang Wenxi, who had grown up in a protected environment, could hardly be taken seriously by Mr.

Lin.

Furthermore, it had been such a long time; it was only natural that Mr.

Lin didn’t remember the incident immediately.

Although Mr.

Lin was not as busy with work as Mu Shanshan, that ice queen chairwoman, he had many women to attend to!

Poor Mr.

Lin had to spend quite some time every day juggling his various womenaround him; he had no time to bother with a greenhouse flower like Fang Wenxi.

Lin Fei’s careless and casual attitude simply infuriated the Fang Family’s butler, Housekeeper Fu, in the tailcoat, who was blowing his beard and glaring with anger.

Had it not been for Fang Wenxi’s instructions before he left, Housekeeper Fu would have already commanded the suit-clad strongmen by his side to beat Lin Fei severely.

Forgotten?!

Lin Fei’s offhand comment about forgetting nearly made Housekeeper Fu, in his tailcoat, spit blood in anger!

We’re talking about fifty million here, not five thousand!

That was the Fang Family; any other family might not be able to endure such a loss of fifty million so easily.

Even for corporate giants like Zheng Minhe, losing fifty million at once would definitely be painful for several months.

Fang Wenxi had been swindled by Lin Fei, or more precisely, it was the security team from the Security Department who had been swindled out of fifty million.

The fact that Fang Wenxi didn’t explode on the spot was, in a way, a testament to the Fang Family’s vast wealth and magnanimity.

The fifty million was a small matter; for the financial power of the Fang Family, it wasn’t considered a significant loss.

What Fang Wenxi truly couldn’t accept was the feeling of defeat and the blow to the Fang Family’s reputation if word got out.

“If it weren’t for the young master’s firm belief that Mu Shanshan is to be the young madam of the Fang Family, and since you were the one who promoted her at the Mu Family, do you think you’d still be alive today?!” Housekeeper Fu, who had finally forced himself to calm down, stared at Lin Fei with eyes as cold as the abyss, “The young master has been giving you opportunities all this time.

If, during this period, you had taken the initiative to return the fifty million, perhaps the young master would have spared your life.

Sadly, you did not.”

By the end, Housekeeper Fu’s gaze towards Mr.

Lin was like that of looking at a dead man.

“The young master was planning to keep you around until the day he married the girl from the Mu Family.

But because of your insensitivity, you’ve lost that chance.” With these words, Housekeeper Fu waved his hands, signaling the suit-clad strongmen surrounding Lin Fei, and said coldly, “What are you waiting for?

Act, and cripple him!”
