Er Shi Xiong

Chapter 972 A Mere Triviality

"Since you know I'm entertaining guests here, throw out the trash you brought!"

Ling Feng said indifferently.

Yin Jiyuan, who had stopped at the doorway, finally breathed a sigh of relief.

He then quickly dragged the two people on the ground up. He had initially thought they were corpses, but after dragging them, Yin Jiyuan realized they were still alive.

These were bodyguards sent by his father. If they were crippled like this, Yin Jiyuan wouldn't know how to explain it to his father when he returned.

It was good that they were still breathing.

After dragging them out, many people immediately crowded around, asking with concern.

However, Yin Jiyuan was startled and quickly roared at everyone, "All of you, shut up!"

Clearly, Yin Jiyuan glanced fearfully into the room, obviously afraid of disturbing Ling Feng's meal.

If Ling Feng was displeased and decided to teach him another lesson, Yin Jiyuan would truly have nowhere to cry.

He carefully closed the door for Ling Feng, and the noise outside finally subsided.

However, the atmosphere at the table was somewhat subdued.

Qiu Yan bit her lower lip. She was somewhat afraid of Ling Feng now, but seeing Yin Jiyuan's demeanor, she figured he wouldn't dare to retaliate against Ling Feng.

Qiu Yan still turned to Ling Feng and said softly, "Ling Feng, thank you. You didn't have to do this. You've completely offended the Yin family by doing this!"

"Don't worry. People like him value face. If he said it, he should keep his promise, and he won't bother you again!"

Ling Feng turned back and comforted Qiu Yan.

Lin Siqi also nodded repeatedly.

Qiu Yan, however, shook her head and gave a wry smile.

Jia Dandan, who was sitting nearby, couldn't help but say, "But rumor has it that Yin Jiyuan is a vindictive person. He's here today with no dignity at all. He really doesn't dare to retaliate against Ling Feng and you. But after you leave Hanjiang, perhaps, the rest of us..."

"Dandan! Stop talking."

Qi Jun suddenly interrupted Jia Dandan and then turned to Ling Feng and the other person, smiling and saying, "Hehe, it probably won't happen. I think Yin Jiyuan is quite afraid of you!"

Ling Feng's expression remained unchanged, while Lin Siqi frowned slightly.

Jia Dandan's words were not wrong. Characters like Yin Jiyuan would certainly not dare to provoke them, but it was still very possible that he would retaliate against these old classmates later.

"Don't worry, if he's not an idiot, he won't dare to involve you. Moreover, this apology was probably his father's idea. With his father keeping him in check, he won't dare to act rashly for a while. Of course, we'll resolve this hidden danger before we leave Hanjiang."

Ling Feng said lightly, then smiled at them, "We'll invite everyone to our wedding when we return. How could we leave such trouble for everyone? Eat with peace of mind. That was just a small interlude. There's no need to dwell on it!"

Hearing this, everyone forced a smile. Since Ling Feng had made such a promise, what else could they say?

Besides, they had nothing else to say. These matters were beyond their control.

Laughter occasionally echoed from the table afterward, but it was clearly not as relaxed and carefree as before.

Although Yin Jiyuan had come to apologize on his knees, appearing utterly submissive.

For everyone present, this was still a tremendous psychological pressure.

When the banquet finally ended, Ling Feng arranged for cars to send them home, which made everyone feel a little better. At least they could be sure they wouldn't be dragged out of the car and beaten up halfway.

They had also received notification from the company that they were now on paid leave and didn't need to go out starting tomorrow.

They only needed to attend Ling Feng and Lin Siqi's wedding the day after tomorrow.

Under these circumstances, everyone felt a sense of security. Of course, they also hoped in their hearts that Ling Feng would keep his word.

He would completely eliminate Yin Jiyuan as a threat, and only then could they truly feel at ease!

The banquet was over, but Lin Siqi didn't look very happy.

"It was my oversight. I messed this up!"

Ling Feng apologized proactively.

Yang Fei, who was driving, quickly said, "No, it was my fault, Heavenly Venerate. It's all my fault. I shouldn't have let that scoundrel come to apologize. The timing was wrong, and it disturbed everyone's enjoyment! Please punish me, Heavenly Venerate!"

Ling Feng completely ignored Yang Fei's words.

Lin Siqi, however, had to take it seriously. She turned to Yang Fei and said, "Yang Fei, this matter has nothing to do with you. However..."

She turned to look at Ling Feng: "Ling Feng, this matter still needs to be resolved. When Qiu Yan and Jia Dandan left, they both looked worried. Yin Jiyuan might really retaliate against them."

Ling Feng nodded slightly: "Don't worry, it's a small matter. I left Lingtian Group in Hanjiang years ago to prevent such things from happening. This Yin family has been quite active recently. Tang Zhao should be able to handle it!"

Lin Siqi was finally relieved and then began to feel a sense of anticipation and nervousness.

The wedding was in two days...

Meanwhile, despite Ling Feng's casual words, he personally called Tang Zhao after returning home.

"Ling Feng, is the banquet over?"

Tang Zhao asked with concern.

Ling Feng nodded: "Yes, it was just a small gathering, but it was interrupted."

"Yin Jiyuan?"

Tang Zhao responded with a question.

"Yes, this Yin family... are they rivals with Lingtian Group?" Ling Feng got straight to the point!

Tang Zhao narrowed his eyes upon hearing this, then replied to Ling Feng: "Yes, the market demand for monster materials is very large now, and the Yin family has extensive channels in this regard. They mainly have connections in the north, and they have suddenly risen in the past year. Even Lingtian Group feels somewhat stifled!"

Ling Feng had already suspected this, but he hadn't expected the Yin family's influence to be so significant!

"In that case, Yin Jiyuan's apology today is worth considering."

Tang Zhao was taken aback: "Well, I called Yin Zheng, Yin Jiyuan's father, and he agreed to give me face. Although he's definitely not happy about it, Yin Jiyuan shouldn't dare to cause further trouble!"

"Father-in-law, you've been in Hanjiang for too long and have become too complacent. It has made you a bit numb. Have Lingtian Group's channels investigate. The Yin family should be making some big moves, very likely soon. You'd better be careful!"

Ling Feng reminded him.

Tang Zhao immediately tensed up. Although Ling Feng called him father-in-law, Tang Zhao felt as if he had returned to the time when Lingtian Group was first established.

It was as if Ling Feng was arranging for him to deal with the Wuhu Group.

Was this Ling Feng's intuition?

No, it definitely wasn't intuition. If Ling Feng said so, something was likely about to happen!

"Alright, I'll have someone investigate immediately!" Tang Zhao responded solemnly!
