"Did he blackmail you? Did you agree?" Lin Feng's gentle expression vanished as he asked seriously.
"Dong Jie, I..." Dong Jie panicked as well; she hadn't expected Lin Feng to know so much detail. She also realized that her earlier lies to Lin Feng had been seen through.
"Sis... don't say anything more. It's my fault for not protecting you well. You should rest, but I don't want you to compromise for me again next time. You know I can't handle that. Do you want me to be troubled by this for the rest of my life? Please don't do that, okay?" After a moment of struggle, Lin Feng finally revealed a gentle expression again as he spoke to Dong Jie, but his words were serious.
"Okay, Lin Feng, I promise you!" Seeing that Lin Feng had calmed down in the end, Dong Jie knew that with Lin Feng's personality, he wouldn't agree to such things easily, so she accepted his request.
The two siblings chatted for a while, and before they knew it, Dong Jie had fallen asleep. It seemed she was too tired from the day; once her nerves relaxed, she quickly drifted off. It was already 11 PM, and it was getting late.
After coaxing Dong Jie to sleep, Lin Feng got up and went downstairs.
Upon reaching the lower floor, Lin Feng was surprised to see someone repairing the iron gate that had been damaged in the collision. This was the very gate that Lin Feng had smashed out of frustration earlier. He remembered that he had even coughed up blood from the effort of breaking it down.
Recalling the moment he had coughed up blood made Lin Feng realize that his hand had been injured earlier. He looked at his right hand, which should have been bleeding but was now completely scabbed over.
His self-healing ability is so impressive? It hasn't even been an hour. Lin Feng was astonished.
"Hey... Old Buddy, has my self-recovery ability improved?" Since he didn't understand it himself, Lin Feng naturally had to ask Tesla. Earlier, when he was coaxing Dong Jie to sleep and doing something relatively private, he usually blocked Tesla's Mental Power.
God knows if this guy has a voyeuristic tendency!
"Heh heh... Did you think Forbidden Spring was that bad? After you ingested those substances, they naturally strengthened your body. With a stronger body, your immunity and self-repair abilities would naturally improve," Tesla explained patiently. Recently, Tesla's temper had improved; he no longer looked down on Lin Feng's ignorance as often and instead took the time to explain things.
"Ha ha... does that mean I have become an invincible monster?" Lin Feng felt quite surprised; such a benefit was truly practical.
"Hmph... only by taking the Forbidden Spring again will you have this effect. Right now, you are just recovering faster than normal. Otherwise, do you think you've become an adult? Moreover, your recovery speed this time is only because your right hand was injured superficially. Otherwise, why don't you try breaking your bones and see if you can recover this quickly?" Tesla couldn't help but pour cold water on Lin Feng, but what he said made sense.
"Uh... never mind." After hearing Tesla's response, although he knew that good fortune wasn't so easily bestowed upon him, Lin Feng still felt a bit disappointed.
"Hehe... kid, be content. Although your self-recovery ability has only slightly improved, don't you have my great Tesla Doctor assisting you? Just leave injuries to me; I guarantee you'll be cured." When Tesla talked about his medical skills, he couldn't help but sound a bit arrogant; after all, it was the proudest achievement of his life.
"Hehe... that's true!" Thinking about it, with Tesla around, not only could he recover quickly from his own injuries, but he could also help his friends if they fell ill. Just last night, he had helped Dong Jie with that issue.
After chatting with Tesla for a while, Lin Feng walked over to Li Zhong, who was repairing the door, and patted him on the back.
"Ah, Feng Shao, you're down?" It seemed Li Zhong had been so focused on fixing the door that he hadn't noticed Lin Feng had come downstairs.
"Yeah, what are you doing?" Lin Feng pointed at Li Zhong's actions and asked.
"Oh, Feng Shao, I saw that the door was damaged. Since Boss Dong is a woman and doesn't have a good lock, it's really unsafe. So I went to buy a good lock to install. Look, it's almost done," Li Zhong explained as he continued working.
"Thanks for that." Lin Feng no longer held any grudges against Li Zhong because of today's events. Although Li Zhong had almost harmed Dong Jie last time, that was a conflict between both sides. Today he had saved Dong Jie again, which made Lin Feng very grateful; how could there still be any grudges?
"It's no trouble; I'm skilled at this work. I used to do it when I was in a tough spot," Li Zhong said without stopping his work.
After a while, Li Zhong paused his work, clearly having finished. He took out the passbook from the last car sale and handed it to Lin Feng.
"Li Zhong, thank you for today. If you're really willing, I'll do my best to help you find your sister. Of course, I'll also help you become stronger—at least stronger than you are now." Lin Feng did not take the passbook Li Zhong offered but instead spoke to him.
"Well, thank you, Feng Shao!" Li Zhong heard Lin Feng's words and realized that his actions had gained Lin Feng's approval. He also knew that last time he almost harmed Dong Jie, which left Lin Feng with some lingering resentment. This expression from Lin Feng was a signal that the resentment had been cleared.
"Hehe... I should be the one thanking you. Alright, stop holding onto the bankbook. You need money too, and this money was earned by both of us. The bankbook is with you, and half of it is yours," Lin Feng said, satisfied with Li Zhong's performance.
"But, Feng Shao..." Li Zhong wanted to say something more.
"Li Zhong, I consider you a friend. In the future, we might even be brothers. You need money right now, right? I can't let you go hungry, can I? Let's handle it this way; I trust you to keep the money," Lin Feng waved his hand to stop Li Zhong from speaking and continued.
"Alright then, I'll shamelessly accept it. Don't worry; there’s over six hundred thousand here. I will take good care of this money," Li Zhong admired and was moved by Lin Feng's generosity. He nodded and accepted the bankbook.
"Hehe... that's more like it. Come on, let's close the shop and find a place to discuss how to deal with Wolf Gang," Lin Feng said as he saw Li Zhong accept the money. He knew that Li Zhong had previously worked under Heizi from Wolf Gang, so he was definitely more familiar with the situation than Lin Feng, who was still in the dark about them.
After locking up the shop, Lin Feng finally understood how good the "good lock" that Li Zhong mentioned really was. It was very sturdy and clearly much better than Dong Jie's traditional lock; it was evident that Li Zhong had put thought into it.
The two of them went to a tree not far from the self-service point. Lin Feng released his Tesla's Mental Power to keep watch; this guy's Mental Power was quite strong and shouldn't be wasted.
"Feng Shao, how do you plan to deal with Wolf Gang?" Li Zhong stopped and asked softly as he looked at Lin Feng.
"Hmph... although this incident was instigated by that scumbag Huang Sheng, Wolf Gang is also involved. I, Lin Feng, certainly cannot let them off easily," Lin Feng said with a grim expression as he gazed into the distance.
"So what does Feng Shao mean?" Li Zhong noticed Lin Feng's hatred for Wolf Gang and asked.
"Li Zhong, tell me, do you think I have all these skills but am willing to live an ordinary life? Isn't that behavior unworthy of a true man?" Lin Feng responded somewhat evasively to Li Zhong's question by asking another question instead.
"Hehe..." Although through their interactions Li Zhong felt that Lin Feng wasn't difficult to get along with, this question was somewhat sensitive, and he didn't know how to respond.
"Ha ha... Do you still have any concerns?" Lin Feng smiled and looked at Li Zhong.
Li Zhong remained silent.
Lin Feng knew that his rebirth felt like a child returning home after many years away; he was somewhat weary and just wanted to live a simple life, different from the miserable existence he had before, making a little money and enjoying small pleasures.
However, his thoughts were too simplistic. The trees may wish for calm, but the wind does not cease!
After the incident with Dong Jie, Lin Feng suddenly began to doubt his life plan. He did not deny that he was starting to develop an interest in power.
Just like today, if he had power, the Wolf Gang would not be so rampant, Huang Sheng would not harbor any ill intentions toward Dong Jie, and Dong Jie would not compromise because of someone as insignificant as Huang Sheng. All of this was due to Lin Feng having skills but not knowing how to use them effectively.
He often said he wanted to protect his family and friends, and Lin Feng had always thought that simply solving problems as they arose was enough. Yet he did not realize that some things, once they happened, could not be undone even if Lin Feng eliminated all the scum. Just think about Dong Jie; if she fell for that scoundrel Huang Sheng, wouldn't her life be spent in manipulation?
If that were the case, what was the point of Lin Feng's rebirth? He might as well find a piece of tofu to crash into.
Thus, Lin Feng felt it necessary to grasp some power. Now, the Wolf Gang, a small gang in City B, would be his first target.
"Li Zhong, you've been with the Wolf Gang; do you know where their lair is?" Since he had already made up his mind, Lin Feng naturally asked Li Zhong for information; after all, he knew more than they did.
"It's at 'Paradise on Earth.' I once went there with Heizi and met the leader of the Wolf Gang—Wolf King 'Black Wolf,'" Li Zhong replied.
"Oh, that's good. How about we go visit the Wolf Gang's lair together?" Since Li Zhong knew and had been there before, Lin Feng naturally wanted him to lead the way.
"Well, Feng Shao, I know what you're thinking, but just the two of us might... Although the Wolf Gang is a small gang, they still have some strength that cannot be compared to those people you dealt with tonight. Besides, they have a few firearms," Li Zhong said while mimicking holding a "gun" with his fingers.
"Ha ha... So what do you think we should do?" Lin Feng asked, appreciating Li Zhong's caution.
"I think we should prepare a bit, get a couple of weapons or find an opportunity to sneak in. That would be safer!" Li Zhong explained carefully, worried that Lin Feng might be displeased, as this was an act of "boosting others' confidence while undermining one's own."
"Ha ha... I've already prepared the weapons. Here, take this. The bullets are fully loaded, and it even has a silencer. Is that enough?" Lin Feng directly pulled out the handgun from the last casino heist from his magic ring and tossed it to him.
In the darkness, Li Zhong didn't suspect anything; he just thought Lin Feng had taken the gun from his body.
"Young Master Feng, you actually have such good stuff? Although the Wolf Gang has weapons, they're all makeshift ones, and having even two is quite impressive. Young Master Feng, you're really generous!" Li Zhong's eyes lit up with excitement when he saw Lin Feng suddenly throw out two high-end handguns. After all, every man has a fascination with guns.
"By the way, Young Master Feng, one is enough for me. You should carry one for self-defense too; I still have throwing knives in my pocket," Li Zhong said as he handed one of the guns back to Lin Feng after calming down.
"Ha ha... This thing is useless to me; you keep it. Now, let's go," Lin Feng naturally wouldn't take the gun from Li Zhong's hand. He still had two more in his magic ring, and with the magic ring in his possession, handguns posed almost no threat to him.
"Alright, let's go..." Li Zhong put away both guns but his eyes were still filled with excitement.
He knew that no matter how strong Lin Feng was individually, he couldn't rely solely on himself to find his sister. Now that Lin Feng was willing to build a force, it was naturally a good start for him in finding his sister in the future.
In the darkness, the two hailed a car and headed towards "Paradise on Earth"...
