The Magnificent Son-in-law
Chapter 1171 - 1171: High Five
"This really presents me with a dilemma..."
Five miles from Third Master's house, in a farmhouse courtyard, Tang Mingbo sat surrounded by a table full of dishes, looking troubled.
Across from him, Xiao Feng was eating heartily, chopsticks constantly moving to his mouth, thoroughly enjoying the meal.
Tang Mingbo opened his mouth but ultimately didn't say anything. He poured a glass of wine, stood up, and handed it to Xiao Feng, saying, "Mr. Xiao, thank you for saving me today."
"I didn't do anything special, just talked a little." Xiao Feng also raised his glass and clinked it with Tang's.
Tang Mingbo drank half a glass of wine, sat down, and said, "I forgot to ask earlier, what happened to those two people afterward?"
"They ran away, what else?" Xiao Feng replied casually, with no trace of tension in his voice.
"Sigh..." Tang Mingbo shook his head and sighed, as if someone had painted the word "worry" on his face with a brush.
Xiao Feng finally put down his chopsticks, tossed a peanut into his mouth, and laughed, "If you're at a loss, I can analyze the current situation for you.
Of course, this time it will cost you."
"How much?"
"Considering we just experienced life and death together, hmm... one million."
"One million it is, go ahead with your analysis."
"Hold on." Xiao Feng took out his phone, opened up the memo, pointed to a bank account number, and said, "Pay first, then I'll deliver."
"..." Tang Mingbo.
After a moment of speechlessness, Tang Mingbo still transferred one million to Xiao Feng.
It must be mentioned that the account Xiao Feng provided this time was not his own, but rather a company account provided by Wang Lubo.
He certainly wouldn't make the mistake of impersonating someone else while leaving traces of his real identity.
"Wait a moment, let me organize my thoughts first." Seeing the one million already in his account, Xiao Feng smiled with satisfaction.
"Alright." Tang Mingbo nodded, waiting silently.
In fact, agreeing so readily to give Xiao Feng one million wasn't because he had lost his ability to think.
It was just that, after narrowly escaping Death God and the trial from Third Master, plus walking five miles...
There was no other choice, the driver ran off, so he had to walk.
In short, all these unfortunate events piling up made him want to empty his mind and stop thinking.
Also, part of the reason was that Xiao Feng's reminder saved his life.
Spending a million to buy a life, any way you cut it, is a bargain!
At this moment, Xiao Feng had organized his thoughts and slowly said, "In my opinion, there are two major dilemmas in front of you now.
First, Wang Tingwei.
Second, Xiao Feng.
In comparison, the matter with Wang Tingwei is more crucial..."
Before he could finish, Tang Mingbo interrupted, "Why isn't it Xiao Feng's matter?
Since Third Master said it was a trial, he must have anticipated that Xiao Feng would take retaliatory action.
Also, as you heard, Chen Fu values Xiao Feng highly. You might not know who Chen Fu is, but in Kyoto, he's a significant figure!"
"..." Xiao Feng.
I'm sitting right in front of you, if I really wanted revenge, would you still be able to talk?
Yet, adhering to the principle of "receiving money means you're a client," Xiao Feng patiently explained, "I previously mentioned that I have a certain understanding of Xiao Feng.
After all, Jiuyou Town and Jiangcheng aren't far apart,
According to my understanding, Xiao Feng won't act hastily unless he's sure you're targeting him secretly."
"Let's hope so..." Tang Mingbo said, clearly downcast, "Go on."
Xiao Feng didn't mind and continued analyzing, "Actually, even if I don't say it, you can probably guess.
After Wang Tingwei fails to get further help from Third Master, she will surely use your company's secrets to threaten you."
"If that's the case, why did those two still want to kill me?
If I'm dead, who will she threaten?"
"That's a good question." Xiao Feng laughed, "Don't forget, legally, you and Wang Tingwei are still legally married now.
Without a prior will, if you die, whose hands will your company fall into?"
"But if that happens, will Third Master still help her?"
"Perhaps, perhaps not." Xiao Feng shrugged, "But by then, it wouldn't matter. Selling off the Tang family assets once wouldn't be a waste."
Tang Mingbo seemed incredulous, "Would she really be that vicious?"
"Is there a pit in your brain?" Xiao Feng couldn't help but curse, "Just two hours ago, they were almost about to kill you, and you ask such stupid questions.
Even if you've recovered from the trauma, you shouldn't forget so soon, right?"
Tang Mingbo's face fell instantly, and after a long time, he said, "Yes, I shouldn't have any illusions about her anymore..."
"Forget it, seeing you like this, you're not able to think about much.
Now, don't think about anything else, just think about one thing — if Wang Tingwei threatens you with your company's trade secrets, how should you respond."
"I..." Tang Mingbo's face was full of hesitation. Several times he opened his mouth, but couldn't get the words out.
What to do?
What else can be done?
The knife is in her hand, does it leave you any choice?
No, wait!
"Do you... have a solution?" Tang Mingbo asked tentatively.
Although he wasn't quite sure, his intuition told him that this unimpressive person in front of him, not much younger than himself, probably had a solution.
Xiao Feng felt a surge of joy, finally hearing what he had been waiting for, but his expression didn't change much. He nodded and said, "There is indeed a solution, but..."
"But what?"
Xiao Feng raised his left hand, displaying five fingers in front, with a suggestive glance, "You know what I mean?"
"Uh..." Several black lines appeared on Tang Mingbo's forehead, guessing for a long time he asked without much confidence, "Do you want me to give you a high five?"
This is ridiculous!
Xiao Feng almost flipped the table. With that brain, that understanding, if he didn't get scammed, it would be an oversight by the scammer.
Taking a deep breath, Xiao Feng used his right index finger to move across the five fingers on his left hand, counting one by one.
Counting up to five, he asked again, "Do you get it now?"
"You want five million?" Tang Mingbo said with a darkened face.
Xiao Feng nodded calmly, "With this price, you won't suffer a loss, nor will you be fooled. It's truly value for money.
Priced fairly, no trickery involved!"
Tang Mingbo's face turned darker, his expression looking like he was constipated.
This guy?
No trickery involved?
Who would believe that!
Yet, right now, there seemed to be no better option than to trust this money-grubber in front of him.
After much thought and hesitation, Tang Mingbo asked, "If I give you the money, what if the solution doesn't work?"
"No problem, I'll refund you." Xiao Feng replied smoothly.
Anyway, whatever happens, getting the money in hand first is the main thing, as for refunding...
Collecting money in Huaxia, refunding will be in Afghanistan.
