Who is Li Shun?
With just a pair of fists, he carved out a territory for himself in Yannan City, a big shot who skirted on the gray margins. With a stomp of his foot, the very ground of Yannan City would shudder three times over.
And such a major player actually sought to curry favor with a man who looked no different from a vagrant?
The identity of Yang Fei suddenly became enigmatic in everyone's eyes.
Long Shaoyang stared blankly at Yang Fei. He was not like Sun Weiren with a Golden Buddha looking out for him from behind and the power and heritage of the Long Family could not compare to that of the Sun Family.
If the Sun Family were a mighty T-Rex, then the Long Family was merely a little water snake.
Given Long Shaoyang's knowledge, he could not fathom the existence of the underground circle, much less comprehend why Li Shun, an overlord of Donghua District, second only to one and above tens of thousands, would so readily offer a car to an odd-job man like Yang Fei in a hotel?
Amidst the envious and jealous gazes from the crowd, Yang Fei simply shrugged his shoulders and said with a smile, "To be honest, Boss Li's approach makes me uncomfortable."
"Let's talk about what we need to before discussing anything else."
"Good, straight to the point. Please, upstairs!"
Li Shun softly clapped his hands and extended his arm, inviting Yang Fei upstairs.
Yang Fei did not stand on ceremony and headed upstairs first. Li Shun turned around and said indifferently, "You, use the VIP Diamond Card express lane, and get the paperwork for this car sorted. Make it fast."
"Yes, Boss Li."
The saleswoman bowed in acquiescence, trembling with fear and her face turned pale.
It was rumored that Chelifang Parking Lot was one of Li Shun's secret businesses, but no one had solid evidence to prove it. Today, however, Li Shun's words and actions undoubtedly confirmed such rumors.
Yang Fei sat in the VIP customer lounge, legs crossed, as a beautiful waitress offered various drinks and red wine.
The guy unceremoniously picked up the 'Supreme' from the table, pulled out a cigarette and lit it, took a deep drag, and then slowly exhaled the smoke.
Li Shun entered the room, waved his hand to dismiss the two bodyguards by the door, and looked at Yang Fei, who was puffing out smoke rings, heh-hehing with a laugh, "If you like this brand of cigarette, I'll send you a box later. They are special-supply cigarettes with a richer flavor."
Yang Fei shook his head and said indifferently, "No need for that. I'm used to Red River. Those cigarettes don't have many additives but pack a punch and are quite pungent. After getting used to them, these high-class cigarettes just don't sit right with me."
He took another deep drag of his cigarette, slowly blowing out the white smoke, eyes growing cold, "So, what do you want with me?"
Li Shun's eyes fixed steadily on Yang Fei, the grey-brown irises revealing a hint of inscrutable amusement, "What if I said I just genuinely wanted to make your acquaintance, would you believe me?"
Yang Fei shook his head, his gaze drifting towards the exterior of the private room, "I'm just an odd-job man at a hotel. Even if I can fight a bit better than the average person, Big Brother Li has no lack of capable fighters under his command."
"Do you really need to go to such lengths to befriend me?"
As he spoke, he took out his phone from his pocket, opened a message, and pointed at one in particular, saying indifferently, "This message was sent by Boss Li as well, wasn't it?"
That mysterious message disclosed the bottom line of Kong Erhu's gathered funds to Yang Fei, leading him to win the auction. The favor granted this way was indeed substantial.
Without even glancing at the message, Li Shun simply smiled faintly, "Correct, I had my man send it to you."
"For me, I would rather give the Clear Spring Flowing Over the Stone Bathhouse to you than let Kong Erhu take over and expand his influence."
"You don't need to thank me. It's merely a strategy to drive the tiger and swallow the wolf. You pay in real gold and silver to buy the bathhouse, which has nothing to do with me."
As he spoke, he picked up the lidded bowl and took a gentle sip of tea, sighed, and said, "There are two reasons why I want to befriend you. First, I have no wish to become your enemy or rival."
"Even if we can't become friends, I don't wish to be your enemy. Hehe, my sixth sense tells me that you would be an extremely terrifying enemy. You carry a dangerous aura that makes one's heart palpitate."
"Secondly, if possible, I hope you can promise me one condition: to extend a helping hand at my moment of life and death, to save me once. And if I die, please save my wife and child just once."
This time, it was Yang Fei's turn to be surprised and he said, "Why do you say this? Isn't it a bit early to be settling your affairs now?"
Li Shun sighed, his eyes cast downward, and said softly, "The turmoil of the Mortal World is so vicious, nobody knows if they can live to see tomorrow's sun. Besides, there are some reasons I'm not at liberty to disclose to you right now."
He looked at Yang Fei with a pleading gaze, "I know that a man like you keeps his word. I just need a single promise from you."
"Of course, if you encounter any mishap, the Lanting Hotel and the proprietress will naturally be under my care."
As the Lanting Hotel and Lin Xueyi were mentioned, Yang Fei couldn't help but ponder for a moment, but after only three or four seconds, he extended his hand to Li Shun, "Deal!"
Li Shun extended his hand and clasped it with Yang Fei's. The two men made eye contact and couldn't help but smile.
After chatting for a while, Li Shun gave Yang Fei a brief overview of the situation in the Yannan Underground World.
Yang Fei only listened vaguely as he had his own plans and didn't intend to make a name for himself in the Underworld. He treated these secrets as mere stories.
However, Yang Fei was still very interested in Sun Weiren's background.
Knowing that he had an appointment for a fighting bet with Sun Weiren, Li Shun deliberately made Sun Weiren's background and character very clear to him.
The Sun Family is a colossal family in the Provincial City, with many political and commercial celebrities in the family and significant influence. Moreover, the Old Lady of the Sun Family is notoriously protective, which means that the Sun Family's descendants can be quite arrogant and domineering.
In fact, descendants of such large families do have the capital to be arrogant, and Sun Weiren's arrogance does not rely on the power of the Sun Family, but on one person.
Golden Buddha!
In Shan Province, anyone who brings up this great Buddha invariably feels awe.
The network he has, the power and resources he commands, could kill a small family like the Long Family in the blink of an eye.
Sun Weiren is the third-generation grandson exceedingly cherished by the Old Lady of the Sun Family, and for some unknown reason, there seems to be some vague connections between the Old Lady and Golden Buddha.
So, under the Old Lady's direction, Sun Weiren became a disciple and godson of Golden Buddha at the age of ten.
To put it simply, Sun Weiren is the Crown Prince of the Shan Province Underground World.
Therefore, it's not just about others daring not to provoke him; even the big rascals in Yannan City have to listen to him, at least ostensibly.
It wasn't until now that Yang Fei realized the magnitude of the hornet's nest he had poked by offending Sun Weiren, a pervert and madness-inducing cur. He had no idea what Sun Weiren might be capable of doing.
