Chapter 643: Li Zhi's Stratagem_1
"Boss, what's this?" Zhou Yang, summoned by Lin Feng, casually picked up the documents in Lin Feng's hand. He flipped through them for a while before suddenly jumping up, exclaiming excitedly, "This... is this a permit for a Special Security Company? That guy, Li Sansi, actually managed to get this for us? Looks like he's indeed capable..."
"It's not him who has the ability, it's his father..." Lin Feng said indifferently. These materials can't be used yet; I have to verify if they're genuine first, and also be wary of any tricks from Deputy District Chief Li Zhiren...
"Boss, now that we have these documents, can we start selecting a site, buying equipment, and setting up the company? I've been back in China for so many days; my hands are itching! I really want to relive that feeling of action..." Zhou Yang grinned at Lin Feng, his face showing heartfelt joy.
"Zhou Yang, I don't mean to rain on your parade..." Lin Feng said, shaking his head with a smile. "But I'm afraid we really have to wait a while. After all, these documents were obtained by threatening Li Sansi. We need to see Deputy District Chief Li Zhiren's attitude first. What if he secretly pulls some strings and invalidates these materials? If we acquire equipment so early, wouldn't it all be a waste of effort?"
"He dares!" Hearing Lin Feng's words, Zhou Yang chuckled darkly, flexing his powerful iron fists. "I'll make sure his son is completely crippled..."
"Anyway, we need to be discreet about this and wait a while..." Lin Feng said to Zhou Yang, shaking his head helplessly. "It's not convenient for me to carry these things around, so you keep them for now..."
"Boss, what's wrong with you? You've become younger, but your courage seems to have shrunk... Why are you being so cautious..." Zhou Yang criticized Lin Feng with some dissatisfaction.
"Stop trying to provoke me... I'm not falling for that..." Lin Feng shook his head with a smile, consistently refusing to agree with Zhou Yang's aggressive ideas.
"Then, can I at least start slowly looking for a suitable place to set up the company in advance?" Zhou Yang finally compromised, saying with some dissatisfaction.
"Hmm... that's more reasonable. I'll leave it to you then..." Lin Feng said with a smile. Then, looking at the wall clock, he told Zhou Yang, "I'm going home to catch up on some sleep..."
「…」
Lin Feng returned to the villa, had some dry rations, and then indeed went straight to bed. He slept like a log, right through to Monday morning...
"Lin Feng, are you awake? You've been sleeping for a long time! The school sports meet starts today, and the inter-departmental tug-of-war competition begins at eight in the morning..."
Ning Aoxue's slightly annoyed voice came from outside. She had truly witnessed Lin Feng's sleeping prowess this time; in just over a day, Lin Feng had actually slept for more than twenty hours. He was practically a Sleep God!
"Oh... it's Monday already!" Lin Feng had almost forgotten that before the school sports meet, there was some kind of tug-of-war competition between departments.
Lin Feng slowly washed his face and lazily got out of bed. Seeing Su Zi and Ning Aoxue looking excited, he felt a bit strange. These two seem to be in high spirits. Do they actually like tug-of-war?
"Let's go, it's time to leave..." Su Zi saw Lin Feng appear, walked over to him, and urged him anxiously, her face showing a hint of nervousness.
"What... I haven't even had breakfast yet..." Lin Feng protested unhappily.
"You still want breakfast?!" Su Zi glanced at Lin Feng speechlessly and said with a pout, "It's already seven-twenty. We're almost late for the assembly..."
"How can I have strength for sports if I don't eat properly? If you're in a hurry, you go ahead..." Lin Feng said, perfectly justified.
"Then we won't wait for you..." Ning Aoxue and Su Zi were indeed in a rush. After hearing Lin Feng say this, they both walked towards the parking lot, ignoring him.
However, Lin Feng wasn't in a hurry. He leisurely ate breakfast for nearly half an hour. Finally, with only a few minutes left before eight, he got into his small car and rushed to school...
By the time Lin Feng arrived at the sports field, Ning Aoxue and Su Zi walked over, glaring at him with annoyance.
"Lin Feng, can you please be more mindful of the time! Do you know everyone is waiting for you?" Su Zi said to Lin Feng, pouting and very dissatisfied.
Ning Aoxue didn't speak, but her eyes also showed displeasure.
Lin Feng, looking completely unfazed, lazily rested his arm and asked, "Has the tug-of-war competition started yet?"
"Not yet." Su Zi shook her head, biting her lower lip. The school administration is still arranging the matchups...
"Well, there you go then!" Lin Feng raised an eyebrow, smiling triumphantly. "Since I haven't missed the competition, stop fussing over me so much."
"But we need to practice! Don't you know that the most important thing in tug-of-war is teamwork and coordination? This time, the members of the School of Management's freshman representative team are ten boys and ten girls selected from our Finance class and your Economics and Management class. If we don't coordinate, how can we compete against others?" Su Zi said, frowning.
Forget it, Lin Feng thought. With that guy Li Zhi around, it would be a blessing if he doesn't cause trouble. Teamwork? You must be joking...
At this moment, Li Zhi, the class monitor of the Industrial Management class, was standing not far away with a group of his cronies. They were whispering and snickering, and his gaze occasionally flickered towards Lin Feng's group. Clearly, he was up to no good.
Li Zhi had seen Lin Feng from afar. After casually waving to dismiss the people around him, he walked towards Lin Feng and said with a faint smile, "Lin Feng, you've finally arrived. Without you, our School of Management's tug-of-war competition would lose much of its color!"
As Li Zhi spoke to Lin Feng, an almost imperceptible flicker of cunning flashed in his eyes. He and Lin Feng were already like fire and water; how could he have any good intentions? He had just conspired with a few friends: once the tug-of-war started, they would initially pull together to create a stalemate. Then, they would all suddenly release the rope, aiming to make Lin Feng fall flat on his face!
Seeing Li Zhi's darting eyes, how could Lin Feng not guess his malicious intent? Thinking about the little tricks that could be used in a tug-of-war, Lin Feng instantly saw through Li Zhi's scheme. These are the kinds of childish pranks I outgrew in elementary school. Why would I be afraid of Li Zhi?
Lin Feng smiled faintly and said modestly, "Well, tug-of-war definitely requires everyone to work together. I can't achieve much on my own. We'll have to rely on you, Class Monitor, to lead the overall effort!"
Li Zhi felt quite pleased by Lin Feng's words, and a hint of regret even surfaced in his heart. If Lin Feng had known to be this complimentary from the beginning, perhaps I wouldn't have deliberately targeted him!
What a pity, fate plays tricks... Lin Feng is destined to suffer a huge embarrassment today! Li Zhi imagined Lin Feng's image crumbling in front of the beautiful girls and chuckled to himself in secret satisfaction for a good while.
