Dragon King Palace: Urban Affluent Son-in-Law
Chapter 1382: Nothing Ventured, Nothing Gained
"Good! Well done!"
Seeing Pi Changshan's confident statements, Jing Kuiyuan reached out and patted him on the shoulder: "Then I'll be waiting for your news! Once the task is done, you'll have great merit. When I restore the hall in the future, I will promote you to honorary elder!"
"Thank you, Hall Master!"
Pi Changshan quickly expressed his thanks.
Jing Kuiyuan nodded and said no more, then left with the four elders in black.
Pi Changshan personally escorted the five out the door, clenching his fists, his face determined!
...
Meanwhile, when Jiang Feng arrived at Chu Group, Zhuge Yuheng was very shocked, surprised and delighted, and quickly invited him personally into the vice-chairman's office.
"Mr. Jiang, what brings you here today, it's rare!"
Zhuge Yuheng personally brewed a cup of tea for Jiang Feng, handed it over with both hands, and asked with a smile.
Jiang Feng looked at Zhuge Yuheng; he seemed to have completely recovered from the previous grief of losing his son, and returned to his usual poised, calm, and wise demeanor.
"I rarely have time, so I came by to check in."
Jiang Feng casually replied.
Of course, it was because of today's affair at Zunxiang Club that he thought of Chu Group and Zhuge Yuheng, his old friends, because in some way, they are of the same kind.
"Haha, with your current status, finding time in your busy schedule is not easy!"
Zhuge Yuheng sat down with a smile, admiring sincerely.
All this time, he hadn't appeared by Jiang Feng's side, but it didn't mean he paid less attention to Jiang Feng.
On the contrary, many things that even Chu Feifei didn't know, he did, and he had been quietly paying attention to Jiang Feng.
Whether Jiang Feng had stirred the Provincial City, consecutively toppled those giant family dynasties, or befriended the Baili Family, and repelled the Lin Family of Beijing multiple times, he had heard, but remained a mere spectator, not daring to get involved.
It's not that he didn't want to help Jiang Feng, but he deeply knew now that he, Jiang Feng, and Jiang Feng's position are worlds apart, far from when Jiang Feng first emerged in Binhai, where he could barely stand on the same level.
Now Jiang Feng is someone he looks up to with awe and can only admire from afar, he has also repeatedly marveled at Chu Renxiong's foresight!
Chu Renxiong had seen Jiang Feng's potential as a dragon among men back then, thus letting his daughter become the person by his side, allowing Chu Group to latch onto this great ship.
"Actually, I've wanted to come and see for a while, just haven't had the time. How has the Group been developing? And how is Feifei doing as the chairman?" Jiang Feng asked.
"Everything with the Group is good, thriving! As per Feifei's requirements, most of the Group's industries are now clean, with gray businesses minimized, and Feifei is now increasingly recognized within the Group, her chairmanship getting more stable and improving." Zhuge Yuheng smiled.
"That's good." Jiang Feng nodded.
He knew well that Chu Feifei, though playful and mischievous on a daily basis, would never compromise when it comes to business!
Her personality has a strong side; she would never treat the vast Group left by her father as child's play.
Moreover, with Zhuge Yuheng and Mu Yanluo as her two major supports, the Group is united from top to bottom; it's hard for it not to prosper.
"Mr. Jiang, you remain concerned and protective of Feifei—does she know you're here? Shall I call her? Knowing you're at the Group would make her very happy!" Zhuge Yuheng took out his phone, smiling at Jiang Feng.
"No! Don't tell her, we had friends over last night, she played too hard and drank too much, didn't get up this morning." Jiang Feng quickly interrupted Zhuge Yuheng.
He was just randomly dropping by, no need to make a fuss.
"Alright, I won't call her then!"
Zhuge Yuheng laughed understandingly: "Mr. Jiang, since you have free time today, we haven't seen each other in a while, let's catch up. Don't go back for lunch, I'll have someone arrange a meal, we can drink a bit, and in the afternoon I'll take you around the Group to get a detailed understanding of our business."
His words were skillful, referring to Chu Group as "ours", implying deeper meaning.
It was obvious that he had an eye on the inevitable future succession when Jiang Feng and Chu Feifei, being of the same age, would take up roles to safeguard Chu Feifei, thus Jiang Feng having a profound understanding of the Group was necessary.
This also indirectly showed that Zhuge Yuheng regarded himself primarily as the Chu Group's Great Housekeeper, wishing to serve till death, never daring to exceed his position.
"Alright!"
For the rest of the day, Jiang Feng stayed at Chu Group, chatting with Zhuge Yuheng, also inquiring about the Zunxiang Club.
And the response was that Zhuge Yuheng knew nothing about the Zunxiang Club but promised that if Jiang Feng needed, he could send Chu Group's people to investigate immediately.
Jiang Feng naturally refused, having agreed with Situ Yan to handle the matter personally, wouldn't let others interfere.
Until dusk, Jiang Feng left Chu Group and returned to the South City Action Department Branch.
"You, having such accurate timing!"
Situ Yan saw Jiang Feng return, snorting charmingly.
Throughout the day, she had endured quite the agony, ready for action, waiting to set out with Jiang Feng.
"By the way, I always wanted to ask, since we're going undercover, what identities will we use?" Situ Yan asked Jiang Feng.
The identity of a female action officer couldn't be used, infiltrating the club wouldn't be easy, right?
"Simple, as others go there for pleasure, we'll follow suit, also enter as guests." Jiang Feng said with a playful smile.
Blush!
Situ Yan blushed upon hearing this: "You mean to disguise yourself as those male patrons, going in to hire a lady?"
"Not just that." Jiang Feng corrected: "You must also pretend to be a wealthy woman, going in to hire a male escort, otherwise we risk exposure."
"You... don't even think about it!"
Sit Yan was anxious and immediately reacted: "How can you come up with this idea! I don't want to hire... hire some male escort, that's so disgusting!"
She couldn't bring herself to do such a thing. Just thinking about such scenes made her feel sick.
Moreover, she had just seen a video this morning of Little Zhongma and the old lady's intense scenes, still vivid in her memory, such things happening to her would disgust her for a lifetime!
"I'm assisting you in the case, haven't you heard the saying, 'entering the tiger's den, or you can't capture the tiger cub'? If you don't let go when the time comes, we might fail in our efforts, think it through." Jiang Feng said calmly.
Situ Yan was helpless, although she really didn't want to admit, she knew Jiang Feng had a point, without playing along, how to gain trust?!
"You and your clever ideas!" She pouted, said grumpily: "Alright, I'll listen to you, whatever you say I'll do! Strive for tonight's operation to yield something, don't let me feel nauseated for nothing!"
