Chapter 547: Chapter 547: Not Playing by the Rules

"Jiang Nan, this is the distinguished guest I’ve invited, Li Feng."

Lv Qinghou introduced them to each other, and Jiang Nan, who had been sitting on a chair, recoiled from it as soon as she heard the name Li Feng, causing the chair to emit a sour grinding sound.

Jiang Nan stood up and turned to look behind her.

"Li Feng!"

Surprise and astonishment were evident on Jiang Nan’s face, while Li Feng’s gaze was also sizing her up. Jiang Nan, typically a bit of a tomboy, was now in a dress, her waist cinched with a wide belt, her face lightly made up—to the point that she was stunningly beautiful.

Different from Wang Jin’er’s poised and elegant demeanor, Jiang Nan was a classic Northern beauty, less gentle but more aloof.

"Feng, how do you know my girlfriend?"

Lv Qinghou feigned ignorance as he looked towards Li Feng, whose eyes swept back to Lv Qinghou: "We were classmates."

"Oh, I see. Well, then we’re practically family here, come, take a seat."

Lv Qinghou, having spoken, turned and snapped his fingers: "Add another chair."

The trio sat down, and whereas before Jiang Nan had appeared distracted, now her eyes were fixed on Li Feng, and inside, her heart was in utter chaos.

Why is he here? He couldn’t have found out something, could he? When Lv Qinghou introduced me, he called me his girlfriend.

He couldn’t be misunderstanding, could he?

"Mr. Lv, there’s no need for such an elaborate scheme just to meet me. Speak plainly about your intentions," Li Feng turned to look at Lv Qinghou.

Li Feng was quite taken aback to see Jiang Nan with this guy, but on second thought, he found it not so hard to understand—a family alliance.

Children of prominent and wealthy families, while they can enjoy a prosperous life out of reach for the average person, also have to pay a price, such as an unfree marriage.

"Mr. Feng is indeed forthright. Since that’s how you want it, I’ll speak directly."

"I want one-third of Century Group’s benefits."

Lv Qinghou brazenly made his demand.

"Okay."

Li Feng agreed without hesitation, catching Lv Qinghou completely off guard. Was that a bit too quick to agree?

"Mr. Feng, I said I want one-third," Lv Qinghou repeated.

Li Feng narrowed his eyes at Lv Qinghou: "I heard you, and I agreed. As long as you dare to take it, Mr. Lv, I dare to give it."

"Don’t say one-third, even half is fine, as long as you can swallow it, Mr. Lv, I have no objections."

Hearing Li Feng’s boldness, Lv Qinghou was somewhat hesitant. Not to mention whether he could digest such a large share, the real issue was if he dared to take one-third or even half, that would undoubtedly make him a target of resentment.

To take someone’s wealth is akin to slaying their parents.

Lv Qinghou initially mentioned one-third as it left substantial room for negotiation. Moreover, he was at odds with Li Zidong; in the meeting room, Li Zidong had chased him out directly as if wielding a feather as an arrow. Naturally, Lv Qinghou was inclined to start his own endeavor. At this feast of Taotie, with hundreds of billions at stake, how could he remain indifferent?

Lv Qinghou’s expression darkened slightly, Li Feng’s too-quick agreement gave him a lump in his throat. Yet, if he went back on his word now and bargained downwards, wouldn’t that be like slapping his own face?

"I have just one condition."

Li Feng looked at Lv Qinghou, who showed a moment of surprise as if he had realized something: "What condition? Let’s hear it."

"Stay away from her."

Internally, Lv Qinghou cursed. Jiang Nan really did have a thing with this Li Feng. Jiang Nan, sitting nearby, also felt her heartbeat pounding upon hearing Li Feng’s words.

Lv Qinghou looked at Li Feng: "Mr. Feng, Jiang Nan is my girlfriend. That’s a bit inappropriate of you."

"Whatever conditions you have are fine, but I have only one request—leave her."

Li Feng’s gaze bore into Lv Qinghou, who still seemed inclined to haggle, as he spoke decisively, prompting Lv Qinghou to suddenly curl his lips upwards.

"This isn’t urgent. Tell you what, you and my girlfriend haven’t seen each other for a long time, probably have quite a lot to discuss. I’ve got some business to attend to, so I’ll take off first. I’ll ask you out another time."

"Go on, I won’t see you out."

Li Feng took charge as if he wasn’t a guest at all, leaving Lv Qinghou glancing at him with an inexplicable annoyance before getting up and leaving.

As soon as Lv Qinghou left, Jiang Nan’s face showed a bit of embarrassment: "What do you mean by that?"

Li Feng looked at Jiang Nan.

"You really look beautiful today. We’ve been friends for so many years, and it’s the first time I’ve seen you in a dress."

Jiang Nan pouted: "I didn’t want to wear it. My mom forced me into it—otherwise, she would’ve nagged me to death. I couldn’t stand it."

"Then are you dating him?"

Jiang Nan shook her head, thought for a moment, and then nodded.

"I guess so."

Jiang Nan bit her lip and looked up at Li Feng: "How do you know Lv Qinghou, and what did you guys mean just now?"

"Just some business dealings. I’ve only known him for a couple of days."

Lv Qinghou walked out of the restaurant, raised his hand, and crooked his finger—immediately, a bald man approached: "Boss."

Lv Qinghou said, "Keep an eye on them. I want to know their every move."

"Yes, boss."

Lv Qinghou then got into his luxurious car.

"Hmph, he’s just a bastard from the Li Family, thinking he can get uppity with me because he’s got some capital. And that little lady Jiang Nan, she’s actually getting involved with him."

Clearly, Lv Qinghou was having a hard time accepting this, especially Li Feng’s arrogant conditions for him to stay away from Jiang Nan.

After all, he was Lv Qinghou, one of Jin City’s Young Masters.

You’re but a bastard from the Li Family, and you dare to talk to me like that? Completely overestimating yourself.

As for Jiang Nan, that little temptress is well-known in the Jin City Circle as a beauty, and Lv Qinghou had set his sights on her, expecting her to become his wife without any accidents.

It’s because the Jiang Family wanted to hitch their wagon to the Lv Family’s power.

Enjoy your few days of laughter, for once the Century Group is divided, I’ll show you what’s what. You two think you have something going on? Well, I’m determined to have her.

Back in the restaurant.

Li Feng looked at Jiang Nan: "Jiang Nan, if you don’t like him, you don’t need to force or demean yourself."

Jiang Nan was silent for a moment, then lifted her head and curved her lips: "I know. I’m not a three-year-old kid. I’m just dealing with my mom, right?"

"And you, when did you get to Jin City? How come you didn’t call? Aren’t we good brothers?"

"I just arrived yesterday. I didn’t have the time, and I was going to look for you once I could in the next couple of days."

Jiang Nan smiled charmingly and looked at Li Feng: "Li Feng, let’s go to the nightclub."

"Huh?"

"You don’t realize that dressing up like a lady is like torture for me; it’s unbearable. I really need to go dancing, to drink. Sitting here at a candlelit dinner, I feel like I could suffocate."

Jiang Nan said.

"Would that be okay, Li Feng?" Jiang Nan got up and walked over to Li Feng, resorting to acting coquettishly.

"Alright!"

When this tomboy starts acting all girlish, it’s enough to give you the shivers. Right away, Li Feng stood up.

"Hey, let’s hit the nightclub."

"Follow them," a bald man, watching Li Feng and Jiang Nan leave the restaurant, immediately ordered.
