Chapter 571: Backstabbing Attack?

Chapter 571: Chapter 571: Backstabbing Attack?

Hmm.

A pair of hands reached around from behind and pressed onto Li Feng’s shoulders, causing him to tense up subconsciously.

"Boss, let me give you a massage to relieve some fatigue. I’ve learned from an old traditional doctor in a Yan Country community these past two years."

An Xi spoke in a petulant tone, starting to press on the acupoints on Li Feng’s shoulders. Li Feng’s body relaxed involuntarily.

For people like Li Feng, their back was their defensive area. If someone got behind them, their body would have a reflexive attack response.

It had become an instinct.

Li Feng tensed up, not out of nervousness, but to control his stress response. Then, he eased up, letting An Xi’s hands press down on his shoulders.

This was also a form of trust and recognition of An Xi.

Seeing Li Feng completely relaxed, a natural smile crept onto An Xi’s lips. The fact that he entrusted his back to her was the greatest reward.

"Boss, is this pressure alright?"

"Mhm, it’s very good. It seems you’ve put your heart into it."

"It looks like the old doctor who taught me wasn’t a fraudster. Boss, do you want me to massage your head? It can help alleviate fatigue."

"Sure."

Li Feng didn’t overthink it, and An Xi’s lips curled up.

"Here I come."

After she spoke, she leaned over, and like being struck by electricity, Li Feng’s eyes snapped open, and he sprang up from the couch, turning to look at An Xi.

"You...!"

An Xi looked at Li Feng with a face full of grievance, her lips pursed: "Boss, do you need such a big reaction? Are you afraid I’ll harm you?"

"Have I really ceased to be your confidant?" An Xi looked dejected, as if abandoned.

Li Feng looked at An Xi and secretly swallowed, sighing internally that without realizing it, An Xi had grown into a stunning beauty.

An Xi was mixed heritage, so her figure wasn’t as petite as that of other girls.

Maybe the just-occurred was an "accident."

Was his reaction perhaps a bit too strong?

"An Xi, don’t overthink it. I didn’t mean that."

"Then what do you mean, boss? Are you implying that my skills are inadequate?"

An Xi pouted, looking at Li Feng.

It seemed there was no way to explain. Li Feng couldn’t be bothered to explain anymore. If he had overthought it, wouldn’t that just be awkward? But he couldn’t bear to hurt the girl’s feelings either. Li Feng directly grabbed a glass of red wine from the coffee table and downed it in one go.

"Mhm, I just felt like having a drink. It helps to relax better."

Li Feng turned and sat back down on the couch.

An Xi pouted her lips and thought: Deceiving children, huh? It seems my tentative probing was unsuccessful. Was I perhaps too hasty?

Hmm.

An Xi quickly analyzed the situation, thinking she needed to slow down the pace a bit, still having to stay in Angel City for a few more days.

An Xi stopped her "Mount Tai crushing down" technique, earnestly pressing on Li Feng’s head with her hands and sharing the bits and pieces of her life from the past two years.

After a while,

Li Feng let out a slight snore, and An Xi paused, whispering softly, "Boss, you’ve fallen asleep, haven’t you!"

Listening to Li Feng’s steady breathing, An Xi moved around to the front of the couch to find him indeed asleep. She felt a touch of melancholy. Was it because her massage skills were too good, or was the boss just too tired?

But the fact that Li Feng could sleep so soundly in her presence brought her great comfort. In their circle, getting a good night’s sleep was sometimes a luxury.

An Xi carefully supported Li Feng’s head and laid him down on the couch, then tenderly covered him with a blanket.

"Boss, sweet dreams."

An Xi stood up, turned around, and left.

Li Feng waited until An Xi had left before opening his eyes. He hoped he wasn’t overthinking this girl’s intentions.

After sleeping for a few hours, An Xi returned to the presidential suite. Li Feng, hearing the noise, immediately opened his eyes and sat up.

An Xi wasn’t surprised by Li Fengtu’s sudden "risen from the dead" act. If he lacked even this level of alertness, he would have been done in by someone long ago.

"Any news?"

An Xi acknowledged with a "hmm" and sat down on the sofa next to him. Li Feng noted An Xi’s change into a uniform that accentuated her figure, and the gold-rimmed glasses on her nose added a touch of scholarly proficiency.

This outfit could probably knock out ninety-five percent of adult men.

"An undercover source has sent information. Old Y and that group have set a time and a place for the deal—tomorrow morning, at an abandoned car processing plant in the suburbs. It’s a bit out of the way, one of Old Y’s strongholds."

"Oh, and the friends from Yan Country have started to mobilize. My people checked the Lv Family’s related companies here in Angel City. They’ve withdrawn about three million Federation Coins in cash."

"This sum is only a tenth of what Old Y demanded. Clearly, they plan to play hardball," An Xi said.

Li Feng wasn’t surprised, his mouth curling into a cold smile: "These thugs are getting arrogant, demanding thirty million Federation Coins. They really have the nerve. Probably knowing a bit about the Lv Family’s influence in Yan Country, they want to blackmail a big payout."

"Little do they know, they’ve kicked an iron plate this time." Li Feng had met Lv Yaohua once, and the man was no ordinary character. To see him bow to a gang of ruffians and let them extort thirty million Federation Coins...

If he really caved, Li Feng would lose respect for him, given all the preparations he had made for several major plays in Yan Country. It would all be for naught.

An Xi nodded, "Mhm, those friends should have no problem dealing with Old Y’s mobsters. However, I’ve just received another piece of news."

"This thirty million Federation Coin ransom is now being eyed by several groups in Angel City."

"Oh, which groups are they?"
