Chapter 436: Chapter 436

"Mr. Feng, you’re here just in time. This little girl has such delicate skin—just your type from the past. Today, as your brother, I’ll help make your day. Take her away."

Feng Yueyang almost dashed forward to rip apart Liang Cai’s filthy mouth.

"Liang Cai, shut up! I’ve long since turned over a new leaf. You better behave yourself and stop doing sketchy, law-breaking stuff, or I’ll be the first to deal with you."

Feng Yueyang sternly and righteously reprimanded.

Liang Cai froze for a moment. What was going on with Feng Yueyang? Among all of Chunzhou, was there anyone more scandalous than him? Changing girlfriends more often than changing clothes. Yet, after the upheaval with Feng Chi, and when the Feng Group’s building was about to collapse, he turned the tide and saved everything. Chunzhou was buzzing with gossip, calling him things like "a reformed rogue who’s turned priceless" and "Chunzhou’s rare outstanding youth..."

Tch, drink a couple ounces of cat piss and forget who the hell you are?

Now he had the audacity to be all high and mighty, pointing fingers? What was this act about playing the big, righteous wolf?

"Turned over a new leaf? Mr. Feng, are you joking with me? It’s just messing around with women. I’ve never forced anyone. Plenty throw themselves at me willingly. But Mr. Feng’s different—nowadays, you’re someone with status. People like me can’t dream of keeping up. Hmmph."

Liang Cai’s expression turned sour.

Right now, Feng Yueyang was the one seeking help, yet he dared to posture in front of him? If Liang Cai didn’t win back the situation, his name wouldn’t be Liang.

He had assumed that saying something would give Feng Yueyang the sense to step down graciously.

If he offended Liang Cai, the Feng Group could forget about completing the acquisition. Weighing the pros and cons, Yueyang should figure it out himself.

"If you know you can’t keep up, then get the hell out." Feng Yueyang spat out harsh words, his tone utterly unyielding.

He didn’t even dare glance at the leader. Surely the leader wouldn’t think he was colluding with Liang Cai?

No, please, dammit, Liang Cai, you bastard—you’re going to get me killed.

Liang Cai stared at him incredulously. "Feng Yueyang? What did you say? Want to repeat it?"

"I told you to get lost. Didn’t you hear me? And if I ever see you again bullying men or women, I’ll just give Captain Xiang a call. Chunzhou’s been dealing with cases of women being harmed lately, and Captain Xiang is pulling his hair out trying to crack them. With that lustful look of yours, you sure fit the suspect description."

Liang Cai’s face turned a shade of iron gray in anger: "Fine, Feng Yueyang, you’ve got guts. Just you wait."

Liang Cai threw out a threat and turned to leave.

After walking two steps, he glanced back at Rong Xianning. The corners of his mouth curled into a sinister smile, as if the girl was already his prey.

His gaze seemed to say: "Get yourself cleaned up and wait for me."

Rong Xianning straightened her figure, meeting his gaze without a trace of fear.

Liang Cai motioned to the bodyguards and swaggered away.

The corridor returned to silence.

Feng Yueyang rubbed his hands together and mustered his courage to walk over. "Boss..."

The young lady stared at him coldly, her gaze carrying a warning.

His words took a sudden turn in his throat: "An honest person always gets bullied. You know, kid, you’re far too rigid and single-minded. Ever think of adapting a bit? First flattering them and then looking for an escape—it’s still better than getting beaten half to death..."

"Thank you, Mr. Feng, for lending a hand. I’ll repay your kindness someday." Though young, the boy spoke with an undeniable air of authority, standing his ground without showing the slightest servitude.

Feng Yueyang grew curious about the boss’s relationship with him, but under the circumstances, he didn’t dare ask much. "I’m the type who’s always hated injustice, can’t stand seeing others bully the weak. If it were anyone else, I’d have done the same. So there’s no need for you to feel burdened, let alone repay me."

Making things up as he went, he began believing his own lies. As long as the boss believed them, it was fine.

Rong Xianning froze for a moment, her gaze lowering.

So there were still good people in this world.

Feng Yueyang looked at the young lady standing beside Rong Xianning and couldn’t hide his delight as he grinned widely, exposing his teeth.

The boss had gotten even prettier than a few months ago when he’d seen her. Her skin had grown fairer, her figure more slender, and she carried a refined, cool scholarly aura now. She was starting to truly resemble a beauty. Official source is N0velFire.ɴet

Shen You’an narrowed his eyes slightly, sending a chill down Feng Yueyang’s neck. He quickly said, "I’ll arrange someone to send you home."

Rong Xianning hurried to reply, "No need to trouble Mr. Feng..."

"Don’t act polite with me. Who knows if that bastard Liang Cai’s out waiting by the club entrance to snatch you into a car and kidnap you in the dark. If that happens, you could scream to the heavens and no one would answer you."

"Thank you, Mr. Feng."

"Mr. Feng." Chong Ming walked over, catching sight of Shen You’an and blurting out, "Holy crap!"

Feng Yueyang kicked him. "Where the hell were you? Hurry up and call Old Liu. Have him wait downstairs to send the kids home."
