Lin Feng had to admit that he was quite fortunate tonight. He had just broken up with one beautiful woman, and now another beauty had gotten into his car.
However, Lin Feng also knew that Lin Mei probably didn't have good intentions.
At that moment, Lin Feng suddenly recalled something from Jin Yong's novel "The Heaven Sword and Dragon Saber," where Zhang Wuji's mother told him that the more beautiful a woman is, the more trouble she can bring, as they are all like tigresses.
Indeed, Xiao Yue was like that; he had been used as a pawn by her. Lin Feng estimated that Lin Mei wouldn't be much better.
She was also someone difficult to deal with.
"How was it? Did you enjoy your time with my sister?" Lin Mei asked.
"Uh, it was fine," Lin Feng replied vaguely, unsure if Lin Mei knew that Xiao Yue had used him.
Moreover, Lin Feng really didn't want to tell Lin Mei that he had been manipulated by her sister; this was something no man would willingly admit. It was simply a matter of pride for him.
"Well, Lin Feng, do you know our family's background? Including Xiao Yue's relationship with us?" Lin Mei seemed to have anticipated Lin Feng's response and continued to question him.
"I know a little. What do you mean?" Lin Feng continued to answer ambiguously.
"It's simple. I want you to stop contacting Xiao Yue from now on, regardless of what you know," Lin Mei clearly didn't want to beat around the bush with Lin Feng. She didn't even bother to suspect his intentions regarding Xiao Yue; in her view, it didn't matter whether he had ulterior motives or not. All she wanted was for Lin Feng to stay away from Xiao Yue. As for whether Lin Feng truly had ulterior motives in contacting Xiao Yue, Lin Mei believed that he would eventually face consequences for challenging the authority of the Lin family.
However, at this moment, Lin Mei did not want Lin Feng to know about those consequences or even think about accepting any punishment.
As for what kind of punishment it would be, she believed that as long as Lin Feng agreed to her request, he would find out later. Those who dared to challenge the authority of the Lin family would eventually face repercussions.
"Oh, I wonder what Miss Lin has arranged for me?" Lin Feng's question already indicated his dissatisfaction. He knew the Lin family held significant power, but he was not someone to be easily manipulated.
"I will arrange for you to work as a Bodyguard in our group. Aren't you skilled? The monthly salary is ten thousand, and if you perform well, there will be raises and bonuses," Lin Mei said calmly, thinking that Lin Feng might be interested given his question.
If Lin Feng was angry earlier, now he was genuinely intrigued. Although he disliked Lin Mei's unilateral decision-making, as if everyone was under her control, he understood that his closeness to Xiao Yue was primarily to gain an opportunity to enter the Lin family group. And now, wasn't Lin Mei offering him a chance to join the Lin family group?
However, despite his excitement, Lin Feng naturally could not show it, so he remained silent.
Looking at the windshield, Lin Feng touched his nose and pretended to be deep in thought.
He knew how to put on an act.
"Okay, I agree," Lin Feng said after a while, speaking in a calm tone.
"Great! From now on, you are an employee of Golden Dragon Group. Here’s ten thousand; I’ll pay you upfront. Just know that if you take the Lin family's money and don't do your job, the consequences will be severe," Lin Mei said as she handed him the cash immediately after he agreed.
"Don't worry; I, Lin Feng, always keep my word," he replied confidently at that moment.
"Alright then, take me back to the Lin family. You are now my subordinate—both Bodyguard and Driver," unexpectedly, Lin Mei did not get out of the car but continued speaking to Lin Feng.
"Uh, Miss Lin, aren't you afraid I might kidnap you? After all, your worth is even higher than Xiao Yue's," Lin Feng asked as he started the engine.
"Hehe... If I told you I’m confident you won’t kidnap me, would you believe it?" Lin Mei maintained her calm demeanor and smiled as she asked.
"Uh, we still have some distance to cover before reaching the Lin family. Let's wait until we arrive before making any conclusions," Lin Feng said confidently at that moment.
"Well then, I look forward to it," Lin Mei replied with a strong aura of a capable woman.
After that, Lin Feng fell silent. His original intention was not to kidnap Lin Mei; he had only agreed to investigate the Golden Dragon Group for He Ting out of boredom. In fact, he approached this series of actions with a playful attitude. He knew that Lin Mei was not an ordinary person, but Lin Feng was not someone to be underestimated either.
Driving steadily towards the Lin family home, Lin Feng maintained his silence, resembling a bodyguard in demeanor.
With a smooth brake, Lin Feng parked the car outside the Lin family villa, turned off the engine, and did not make any move to open the door for Lin Mei.
Driving for Lin Mei was already a concession from Lin Feng; he did not think he should lower himself to open her door, even though Lin Mei's status was quite extraordinary.
Lin Mei did not object to Lin Feng's actions. It seemed she had anticipated everything. Lin Feng guessed that she probably expected him not to open the door for her as well; she simply opened the car door and got out calmly.
At that moment, as she was leaving, Lin Mei said to Lin Feng, "Come find me at the Golden Dragon Group tomorrow. I will inform the Secretary. Also, thank you."
"Ha ha, what are you thanking me for?" Lin Feng asked with a smile.
"Thank you for not kidnapping me. Ha ha..." Lin Mei replied before closing the car door.
"By the way, although I agreed to work for you, I never promised to stay away from Xiao Yue," Lin Feng said somewhat reluctantly, feeling that Lin Mei had dominated their interaction throughout the night.
"You can give me an answer on that matter in a few days. Don't jump to conclusions too early, young man," Lin Mei paused before responding to Lin Feng's words.
Then, she turned and walked away.
Watching Lin Mei leave, Lin Feng suddenly felt that she was indeed the most imposing woman he had encountered so far, even though she would undoubtedly score a ninety-seven in beauty.
As for why it was only a ninety-seven, it was because his impression of her was not particularly favorable; he did not like overly assertive women.
After driving away, Lin Feng returned home and fell back into a state of sleep.
The next day, Lin Feng arrived at the Golden Dragon Group. After reporting his name to the Secretary, he was taken to Lin Mei's office.
Lin Mei's office was quite impressive, but the decor was not extravagant. Of course, Lin Feng did not pay much attention to the style of Lin Mei's office.
"How is it?" Lin Mei asked as she noticed Lin Feng surveying her office.
"Not great; it would be a bit difficult to hide a man here," Lin Feng replied.
"Hehe... Do you know what happens when others speak to me like that?" Lin Mei chuckled and countered.
"I don't know, and I don't want to find out," Lin Feng said.
"Well, come with me. I'll show you your future work environment," Lin Mei said, changing the subject without mentioning any consequences. She stepped out of the office first, signaling for Lin Feng to follow.
Having adapted to Lin Mei's working style, Lin Feng said nothing and simply followed her out.
"Here it is—this will be your work environment. Make sure to cooperate well with them. I'm leaving now," Lin Mei said as she led Lin Feng to the basement of the entire Golden Dragon Group building. She pointed at the men who were training and then departed.
"I will," Lin Feng replied. Seeing that Lin Mei brought him to this place, he understood her intentions but felt unfazed. After all, he was quite familiar with the headquarters of the Wolf Gang.
This kind of place wouldn't intimidate him.
As he watched Lin Mei leave, someone approached Lin Feng and extended a hand, saying, "Welcome."
It was a straightforward greeting that reflected his role—bodyguard.
Indeed, as a large corporation, the Golden Dragon Group had its security system. However, most of the security personnel were older individuals. Yet, until now, no small-time crook had dared to provoke them because the security system of the Golden Dragon Group was not limited to just those visible guards.
This is just the second line of defense.
Of course, Lin Feng really doesn't know this at the moment; even the people training here are not aware of it.
"Um, thank you. May I ask your name?" When interacting with different people, one should adopt different attitudes. With someone as clever and strong-willed as Lin Mei, Lin Feng could afford to be unconventional, but with the people here, he couldn't do that. After all, this is where he would be working in the future, and as a newcomer, it would be better to build good relationships with everyone for now.
Saying this, Lin Feng smiled and shook hands with the Strong Man in front of him.
"Uh..." It was at this moment that Lin Feng realized that this Strong Man was not simply shaking hands with him. As soon as his hand made contact, the guy immediately used a vice-like grip.
However, Lin Feng didn't feel any discomfort. If it came to strength, how could an ordinary brute compete with someone like him who possessed Internal Energy?
Sure enough, not long after, the Strong Man couldn't hold on any longer. Although he was too embarrassed to admit it, his face had turned a shade of purple.
Meanwhile, Lin Feng appeared relaxed; after all, he had only used ten percent of his strength.
"Heh heh... Looks like I'm not welcome here," Lin Feng said without being harsh. Seeing that the other person was struggling, he released his grip and continued speaking.
Upon feeling Lin Feng let go, the man looked at him gratefully, and his expression improved significantly. After all, he had experienced that sensation and knew that if Lin Feng hadn't released him, his hand might have been broken.
