NOVEL NEXT Chapter 156: Deceiving Peers
After Ling Feng hung up the phone with Mo Yu, another unfamiliar number called.
Ling Feng hesitated for a moment, then answered, "Hello!"
"Hello!" a familiar yet timid voice came through, "This is Zhao Bing!"
...
An hour later, Ling Feng and Zhao Bing met at a milk tea shop.
"How did it go, is everything settled?" Ling Feng asked.
Zhao Bing nodded, "Deng Yuanqing has been detained by the police, and I have submitted all his incriminating evidence. Now, my issues are completely resolved!"
Because of the Liu Xin incident, pulling the radish also pulled out the mud, which also solved Deng Yuanqing's problems by chance. Zhao Bing, who had been consistently threatened and suppressed by Deng Yuanqing, finally breathed a sigh of relief.
Zhao Bing knew that the most direct cause of this was Ling Feng's handling of Liu Xin! So he was very grateful to Ling Feng!
"I told you, once your matter is resolved, you could come to me!" Ling Feng smiled faintly, "Are you interested in working at Chaoyang Biotechnology?"
Zhao Bing was stunned. Work at Chaoyang Biotechnology? That was a huge opportunity!
Now, who didn't know that the development of Chaoyang Biotechnology was soaring like a rocket? The Biotech Industrial Park being vigorously constructed on the outskirts of Yanjing was a joint project between the Yanjing Municipal Government and Chaoyang Biotechnology!
"What do you want me to do?" Zhao Bing, suppressing the excitement in his heart, asked.
Ling Feng nodded slightly, acknowledging that Zhao Bing's self-control was strong, as he wasn't swayed by temptation.
"You might not know, but the person who saved your father back then was Yun Yang, the former CEO of Chaoyang Biotechnology. Now, the CEO is his daughter, Yun Hanrui," Ling Feng said. "The reason I recommend you for Chaoyang Biotechnology is because you are truly a financial genius, with sharp insight, a promising talent!"
"Secondly, there are some issues in Chaoyang Biotechnology at the moment. I hope you can keep an eye on them secretly!"
A wary look appeared in Zhao Bing's eyes.
Ling Feng spoke calmly, "Don't be nervous, I'm not asking you to be a spy! You just need to keep an eye on the company's accounts to see if there's anything amiss. If a problem arises, immediately inform me or CEO Yun Yang. That should be fine, right?"
Zhao Bing slowly nodded, "If that's the case, I can agree!"
Ling Feng pulled out a letter and handed it to Zhao Bing, "Here is a recommendation letter I got from Uncle Yun. Take this letter to Chaoyang Biotechnology, and the rest is up to you!"
Zhao Bing took the recommendation letter, gave Ling Feng a deep look, then bowed deeply, "Thank you!"
"There's no need for thanks. You should know there's no free lunch in this world," Ling Feng said calmly. "If you want to express your gratitude, prove it with your actions! Show us your value!"
...
After Zhao Bing left, Ling Feng walked slowly along the surrounding streets. New Year's Day had just passed, but the festive atmosphere still lingered on the streets, and with the Chinese New Year fast approaching, the holiday spirit was growing stronger!
"Brother Ling!" a crisp voice came, filled with joy.
Ling Feng turned and saw a thirteen or fourteen-year-old girl shouting happily, her nose slightly red.
"Xiao Qing, is that you?" The little girl was Chen Qingqing from the Qing Song Orphanage.
"What is happening here..." Ling Feng couldn't help but notice Chen Qingqing, and also the graceful woman he had seen before at the orphanage, whose name seemed to be Deng Xintong.
Chen Qingqing smiled and said, "From afar, I saw Brother Ling's figure and thought it looked like him, and indeed it was Brother Ling!"
"Why are you out in such cold weather?" Ling Feng asked curiously.
Chen Qingqing stuck out her tongue and said, "We are here to sell flowers. There's a lot of foot traffic here, and a lot of young couples, so flowers sell really well!"
Indeed, Ling Feng saw that Chen Qingqing's basket still had about a dozen pink roses left.
"Do you come here to sell flowers every day?" Ling Feng asked curiously.
Chen Qingqing shook her head: "Not really, only during holidays when there are more customers. On normal days, we hardly sell much!"
Ling Feng noticed Chen Qingqing's hands were somewhat red from the cold and pulled out five hundred yuan from his pocket: "Sell these roses to me. You should head back and rest early!"
Chen Qingqing stepped back: "Brother Ling, how could I possibly take your money! If you are buying these roses for Sister Yun, I can wrap a few for you!"
"For Yun Hanrui?" Ling Feng thought to himself with a rueful smile, this misunderstanding seemed rather big!
Before Ling Feng could explain, he heard a cry of alarm from afar.
Looking up, he saw four or five men surrounding Deng Xinyi, whose flower basket had been trampled and broken, flowers scattered all over the ground.
"Sister Deng!" Chen Qingqing also saw the scene, her face full of panic as she ran over.
Ling Feng furrowed his brow and followed.
"Let me tell you, this is Flying Dragon Floriculture's territory. If you dare to show up here again, we'll beat you every time we see you!" one of the burly men said fiercely: "Damn it, daring to compete against Brother Dragon! "
Deng Xinyi defiantly said, "What right do you have to destroy our flower basket? Besides, we were here before you, what right do you have to monopolize this place and not allow us to sell flowers?"
"I spit!" the burly man coldly said: "Early? What does early matter? I'm telling you, I'm only sparing you because you're a girl, if it were someone else, I would have skinned him long ago!"
Listening to this, Ling Feng then understood, they were facing bullying within the industry!
Deng Xinyi's flower basket was beautifully woven, and the blossoms on it were delicate and attractive, naturally appealing to many young people, which impacted the business of the others, prompting them to cause trouble.
For such people, Ling Feng's heart was filled with disdain! A real man defeats his opponents fairly and squarely; relying on such dirty tricks, and especially bullying a girl, was simply a disgrace to men!
"Hey, little sister, you better wise up and scram early, otherwise, Brother Long is not the kind to show mercy to a beauty!" another tall and skinny man said with a sneer.
A flash of anger crossed Deng Xinyi's eyes; these flower baskets and bouquets were the hard work of a whole day by her and the orphanage children, aiming to earn some extra money during the holiday to support the orphanage. But... this was just too much bullying!
"I won't compromise!" Deng Xinyi said coldly: "How can you bully and dominate like this, isn't there any law left?"
"Haha, law? Haha! Brother Long's brother-in-law is the municipal law enforcement here, where do you think you can find any law?" laughed the tall man: "Brother Long, this girl is asking you for the law!"
The burly man sneered: "Law? Alright, I'll show you the law!"
With that, the burly man raised his hand and viciously slapped Deng Xinyi across the face.
