"How is it? Is it okay?" After serving the last dish, Song Qi sat down and asked Lin Feng with a smile.
Lin Feng didn't answer. Instead, he grabbed his chopsticks and quickly tasted each dish. To be honest, the food made by Song Qi, this young lady, had a unique flavor. After tasting everything, Lin Feng looked quite satisfied but said, "Hehe... it's just average, barely edible." As he spoke, Lin Feng quickly picked up another bite.
"Hehe... aren't you afraid I might poison it or something?" Seeing Lin Feng's reaction, Song Qi couldn't help but laugh. But then she asked with a teasing smile.
"Hehe... since I dared to come, I naturally have confidence that you wouldn't do that." Hearing Song Qi's question, Lin Feng secretly sighed. This woman was really bold to bring up such a topic, but he confidently replied.
This confidence wasn't just for show; possessing a unique constitution, Lin Feng truly wasn't afraid of any poison.
"Is that so?" Song Qi asked curiously.
However, Lin Feng buried his head in his food, indicating he wasn't willing to answer that question.
After eating and drinking to their fill, Lin Feng finally raided Song Qi's fridge and took two bottles of beer. One and a half bottles went into Lin Feng's mouth while the other half was consumed by the fierce woman, Song Qi.
"Hehe... thank you for your hospitality today, Miss Song Qi. Since you have nothing else to do, I will take my leave now." After finishing the meal, Lin Feng wiped his mouth and prepared to leave.
"You, Lin Feng, can't you be a bit more manly?" Song Qi was speechless at Lin Feng. Many young talents would spend lavishly just to show off their gentlemanly side in front of her. Yet here was Lin Feng; she cooked for him, and after eating his fill, he wanted to leave with just a simple "thank you." If that "thank you" were truly so valuable, everyone wouldn't have to work so hard for it.
"Come on, I'm just being more manly; I don't have the habit of helping clean up after meals," Lin Feng continued to play dumb. He knew that if there was something she wanted to bring up, Song Qi would definitely do so.
"No one is asking you to clean up. Just sit there and watch TV while I wash the dishes and prepare some fruit for you. How does that sound?" Song Qi clearly didn't want to start their conversation too quickly and spoke to Lin Feng as if he were an ordinary guest at her home.
Of course, Lin Feng was her only guest in this house.
"Hehe... although your temper is a bit bad, I won't hold it against you. Come on, even though I'm too manly to help with the dishes, I can still handle preparing a fruit platter. How about that?" At this moment, even if Lin Feng was thick-skinned, he felt a bit embarrassed after eating and taking things from her place.
"Oh, that's great! Let's work together," Song Qi said with a meaningful look at Lin Feng.
Next, while Song Qi washed the dishes in the kitchen, Lin Feng took some fruit from her fridge and started preparing it with a fruit knife.
Lin Feng was quite skilled with the knife; after all, in his past life as a mercenary, he never went anywhere without one. Mercenaries knew well that once their weapon left their hands, their lives were likely nearing their end.
Now, Lin Feng had Internal Energy, which made him even more casual with the knife. He skillfully rotated it between his fingers, and soon, a piece of apple skin was peeled away, revealing a smooth and shiny apple underneath.
"Not bad!" Song Qi, a woman who was not an ordinary one, couldn't help but admire the artistic way he peeled the fruit.
"Hehe..." Lin Feng chuckled and tossed the already peeled apple into the air. Then, he grabbed a fruit plate to catch the falling apple.
"Thud..." The apple fell from a height onto the fruit plate, making a sound as it collided with it.
Of course, that wasn't the most amazing part. The most astonishing thing was that Song Qi hadn't seen Lin Feng cut the apple; how did it turn into four equal pieces as soon as it landed in the plate? The cut surfaces were clearly smooth, as if sliced by a knife.
"That's incredible, Lin Feng! How did you do that?" Song Qi couldn't help but ask.
"Hehe... A secret cannot be revealed," Lin Feng replied mysteriously, like a trickster.
Next, Lin Feng repeated the process with an apple, pear, and orange, leaving Song Qi pleasantly surprised each time.
"Lin Feng, I think you must be quite the flirt," just as Lin Feng was waiting for Song Qi's praise with a mysterious expression, she suddenly blurted this out.
"What the... Is that how you compliment someone?" Lin Feng almost stumbled and dropped the fruit plate he was holding. This woman was indeed extraordinary.
"Isn't it? You make such a big deal out of preparing a fruit plate. Aren't you just showing off for women? Do you do this at home too?" Song Qi said with a knowing look.
"Hehe..." Lin Feng could only laugh at this moment. This woman was too clever. When he tossed the apple into the air earlier, he had secretly used his Internal Energy to split it in half. Although it consumed quite a bit of Internal Energy, who would do that for no reason? So, Lin Feng wouldn't make such a fuss when preparing fruit at home. In fact, if he wanted to eat fruit, he could just grab an apple from Dong Jie and wash it without all this trouble.
"Alright then, since you know everything, let's go outside and talk." It was about time to discuss serious matters. Lin Feng carried the fruit plate and walked out of the kitchen while speaking to Song Qi.
"Hehe... Okay, I'm coming." Song Qi understood what Lin Feng meant and followed him out of the kitchen.
"Hehe... Miss Song Qi, you called me here because of Song Gang's matter, right?" As a man, Lin Feng helped Song Qi take a piece of apple and began speaking.
"Of course! I'm very glad to see your strong return," Song Qi said as she accepted the piece of apple Lin Feng handed her.
"Yes, I'm also very happy to see you again," Lin Feng said as he took a bite of fruit himself.
"I know this is an opportunity. Since you were able to strike Song Family Young Master Song in public, you must have some confidence in dealing with the Song Family, right?" Song Qi continued, both of them speaking frankly, as there were no outsiders present and no need for subtlety.
"Yes, it is an opportunity, but one thing you got wrong is that I don't have confidence in dealing with the Song Family. I only have confidence that the Song Family won't pursue me anymore," Lin Feng replied directly.
"I understand. Otherwise, you wouldn't need to bring Qian Bang in to restrain the Song Family, nor would you have agreed to come here at my invitation," Song Qi analyzed rationally.
"Exactly. So, what can you offer me?" Lin Feng asked again. Since they were discussing serious matters, he was straightforward. If they couldn't reach an agreement, so be it.
"I can provide you with an internal attack and intelligence on the Song Family. I won't elaborate on the importance of intelligence; over the years, I've placed many people within the Song Family and cultivated some influence. While I may not be able to dismantle the Song Family, I can certainly inflict significant damage," Song Qi said confidently.
"Hmm, I need this ticking time bomb from you. It's quite ridiculous that the Song Family Head would bury such a bomb beside himself," Lin Feng was pleased with Song Qi's words, but he wouldn't treat her as a bargaining chip against the Song Family. After all, he didn't fully trust her. From start to finish, it was Song Qi narrating her hatred for the Song Family, while the actual truth remained unknown to Lin Feng.
Having gone through a life of deception as a mercenary, Lin Feng understood that relying on others was less reliable than depending on oneself.
"Hmph, he wants to use my intelligence to assist his precious son in managing the Song Gang. Unfortunately for him, he's too arrogant," Song Qi replied coldly.
"Alright, I understand your point. Let's see how things unfold in the coming days and communicate any news we have," Lin Feng could only respond this way for now. In reality, he was waiting for an opportunity; otherwise, he would have to maintain a balance with the Song Gang. The Song Gang wouldn't easily move against him, and he wouldn't easily act against them either.
"Mm..." Song Qi agreed with Lin Feng's words.
Having eaten and discussed matters, Lin Feng felt it was time to leave.
Afterward, he bid farewell to Song Qi and left alone.
However, just as he returned to School, he realized that someone was watching him.
With his mental power being dozens of times greater than that of ordinary people, he could easily tell if anyone was following him. Moreover, he confirmed that when he left Song Qi, he had deliberately checked and found no one tailing him. Now that he had just returned to School, he was immediately being watched.
Thinking this through, Lin Feng felt reassured; it seemed that nothing had been exposed at Song Qi's end. The person watching him must be lurking nearby at School.
Well then, since everything was fine with Song Qi, it shouldn't be anyone from the Song Gang keeping tabs on him. Could it be from Qian Bang?
Lin Feng knew that aside from the Song Gang, only Qian Bang would have the capability to send someone to watch him.
Lin Feng hated being watched the most. After all, he had many secrets now, and it was inconvenient to do certain things if someone was keeping an eye on him.
Thinking of this, Lin Feng snorted coldly and then entered the campus.
Sure enough, as soon as Lin Feng stepped onto the campus, his Mental Power immediately sensed that someone was following him inside.
Lin Feng's School was quite large, with various main roads and small paths. Having lived here for two years, aside from feeling a bit unfamiliar when he first reincarnated, he now knew it like the back of his hand.
Wu Cheng was an old member of the Wu Family. He joined the Wu Family at twenty and had worked there for over twenty years. Now, he had gained the trust of the Wu Family's Old Master. This time, the task of protecting Lin Feng was entrusted to him.
However, while Wu Cheng was protecting him, he suddenly realized that Lin Feng had vanished.
Immediately, he sensed that he might have been exposed.
"Heh heh... I thought you would come looking for me. I didn't expect your sense of danger to be quite high," Lin Feng said as he circled around to appear behind Wu Cheng. He noticed that Wu Cheng was about to leave after realizing he had lost track of his target, so he spoke up to stop him.
"Heh heh... Young Master Lin, I didn't expect you to catch me," Wu Cheng replied with an awkward smile as he turned around.
However, in the next moment, his expression changed because he realized that Lin Feng had already launched an attack against him. Moreover, judging by Wu Cheng's years of experience, if he took that hit, he would either die or be seriously injured.
