Chapter 64: Shen Fei, who do you think you are?

Upon seeing his father’s angry expression, Kong Fuwen was stunned for a moment and quickly explained,

“I was in a deep sleep and didn’t hear the phone! Why are you still at home so late? Is there something you need to tell me?”

Noticing that his father, Kong Lianshun, was still at home instead of at the office, Kong Fuwen also became serious. Although he was also part of the second generation of the family, Kong Fuwen was not a spoiled rich kid. Especially seeing his father waiting for him to wake up, Kong Fuwen understood that something significant must have happened.

“I’ve been waiting for you because I need to warn you in person! Stay quiet for a while! Don’t go near the Tian Sheng Grand Hotel anymore! Also, what happened between you and that boy from the Jiang family over some broken stones? Can’t you just behave for a few days? Do you really want me to worry? As long as that old man Jiang is around, his family is someone we cannot afford to mess with!”

“Look at the current leaders in the city—who isn’t one of Jiang Anbang’s protégés?”

“If you cause trouble with Jiang Tiancheng and you’re in the wrong, don’t think even your uncle can save you!”

“I need you to give me some peace of mind! This is a sensitive time; stay at home if you can and don’t stir up trouble. I’ll be grateful if you do!”

Kong Lianshun spoke carefully and seriously.

Upon hearing this, Kong Fuwen’s heart sank.

If it were a normal situation, his father wouldn’t be giving him such strict advice. Plus, the whole city knew he and Jiang Tiancheng had been at odds for years. If his father was really afraid of the Jiang family, he would have nipped the conflict between them in the bud a long time ago!

“Father, what’s going on?” Kong Fuwen asked, concerned.

Kong Lianshun didn’t answer directly but rubbed his temples.

“Nothing really, I’ve just been overwhelmed lately, so tired! The real problem is that the Inspection Office has returned to Deep City. That’s my biggest concern.”

“The Inspection Office? Aren’t they here to investigate Tian Sheng Grand Hotel? What does that have to do with our Kong family? I think we can just announce that we are distancing ourselves from the Tian Sheng Grand Hotel and withdraw from it!” Kong Fuwen suggested.

Kong Fuwen wasn’t aware of the bad deeds his father and Fang Shengnian had done together, and Kong Lianshun had deliberately kept that from him.

Even so, Kong Lianshun’s mood was heavy.

Seeing Kong Lianshun’s expression, Kong Fuwen now realized things were far more complicated than he had imagined.

“This is not something you should get involved in! Every time the Inspection Office has secretly visited Deep City, Fang Shengnian always said there was nothing to worry about and ridiculed my caution. I see those people in Fang Shengnian’s camp as arrogant and reckless!”

“Anyway, avoid going there for now! I’m planning to distance myself from Fang Shengnian too, because following those fools will only cause trouble.”

Kong Lianshun said with a sigh.

Kong Fuwen couldn’t help but bitterly smile.

But severing ties with Fang Shengnian wasn’t as simple as his father made it sound!

“Dad, the Kong Group is so powerful now—how could Fang Shengnian just let you cut ties with him easily?” Kong Fuwen said worriedly.

Kong Lianshun sighed heavily in response.

“You don’t need to worry about that. From today on, just stay away from the Tian Sheng Grand Hotel and avoid causing trouble. Don’t get into any more conflicts with Jiang Tiancheng. Stay at home as much as possible.”

After giving his instructions, Kong Lianshun left for the company.

Even after his father left, Kong Fuwen stood there in a daze.

Ten minutes later, he took out his phone.

“Kong Shao, we are on our way to Shen Fei right now! We’ll make sure to give you a satisfactory result. Just wait for us!” A flattering voice came from the phone.

“Turn back!” Kong Fuwen said calmly.

“Huh? Kong Shao, why?”

“No why, just turn back!”

Kong Fuwen’s voice grew sharp with anger.

“But the brothers are already on their way, Kong Shao!”

“Are you deaf? I said turn back! What’s wrong with you?”

After hearing the order to turn back, Kong Fuwen hung up the phone.

His face was filled with anger as he gripped his phone tightly.

“Shen Fei, I will never let you off!”

If he didn’t teach Shen Fei a lesson, the frustration in his heart would never go away.

During the stone gambling event, his target had been Jiang Tiancheng. Even though Jiang Tiancheng had won, he had no complaints. But Shen Fei, that loser, what was he even worth?

The most ridiculous thing was that Shen Fei helped Jiang Tiancheng set him up to trick him!

Being manipulated by a loser was the most unbearable thing for Kong Fuwen.

Now, everything had been arranged, but his father’s words had made him change his plans.

Filled with anger from his thwarted revenge, Kong Fuwen took a few deep breaths to calm himself.

“Shen Fei, who do you think you are, daring to challenge me?”

……

Meanwhile, Shen Fei, who had narrowly avoided disaster, returned to his rental house.

As soon as he opened the door, he turned on the TV and collapsed on the couch.

With the sounds from the TV filling the room, he lay there with his hands behind his head, staring blankly at the ceiling.

At the same time, his brain was racing.

This was how Shen Fei thought.

Unlike others who preferred quiet contemplation, Shen Fei’s mind worked faster with more noise.

Not wanting to remain idle, Shen Fei started thinking about his next money-making opportunity.

The scar cream he developed worked well, but now wasn’t the best time to ramp up production.

If his memory served him right, the helper he was waiting for was still a manager at a company.

However, in a few days, this manager would be fired.

At that time, this person would be rejected by all major companies due to his crazy ideas.

It wouldn’t be until three years later, when he met Shen Fei, that he would be recognized and appreciated.

The scar cream, which was a product of misfortune, would go on to become the most popular scar removal product in the world.

By the time both of them became successful, the person never left Shen Fei’s side. He worked tirelessly for him, never being poached by other companies.

So Shen Fei wasn’t in a hurry.

He planned to wait until the person was out of options before making his move.

For now, he pushed the memories of the scar cream and the person to the back of his mind.

Shen Fei began thinking of new opportunities.

Suddenly, a football match started playing on the Deep City Sports Channel.

A piece of news reached Shen Fei’s ears.

“Sources say that Qiankun Group has put the construction of a professional football stadium on its agenda! They will allocate 15 billion yuan for surrounding improvements! If this is true, the planned area might become the next ‘Little Mansion’!”

Upon hearing this, Shen Fei’s eyes lit up.

The content of this news quickly surfaced in his mind.
