"By the way, what is Luo Feng to you?"
Just as he was about to leave, he suddenly remembered that Luo Feng was also a member of the Xi Gang, and also had the surname Luo. This guy was very secretive about his own affairs, only mentioning the Xi Gang and refusing to say more.
But Luo Qingqing's answer also surprised him.
"Luo Feng? The one with the same surname as me?"
"You don't know him?"
Seeing Luo Qingqing shake her head, Li Chonglou immediately frowned. This was impossible. Luo Feng's strength was even greater than Hua Nanhhu's. Such a figure couldn't be unknown in the Four Great Gangs!
But Luo Qingqing, the young master of the Xi Gang, didn't seem to be faking it. Could it be that Luo Feng had been lying to him all along?
Or was this guy not called Luo Feng at all?
Li Chonglou's heart skipped a beat. If that was the case, his previous actions would seem extremely reckless!
This was a situation where he was being played for a fool minute by minute!
Thinking of this, he couldn't help but break out in a cold sweat. Luo Qingqing noticed Li Chonglou's odd behavior and asked with concern, "Brother Li, what's wrong?"
Li Chonglou jolted awake, but still pretended to be nonchalant. "Nothing, I just suddenly remembered someone with the same surname as you."
Luo Qingqing spread his hands. "There are too many people with the same surname. It's not that coincidental." Li Chonglou nodded, chatted for a few more minutes, and then bid farewell to Luo Qingqing.
After he left, as Luo Qingqing walked outside, a subordinate stepped forward and whispered.
"The family head instructed that it's better to go out less recently. Shall we go back?"
Luo Qingqing glanced in the direction where Li Chonglou had disappeared, then sighed, and finally nodded.
After Li Chonglou got into Old Wu's car, he told him to drive back to the company and also called Lin Qianqian.
"You finally decided to show up?"
Lin Qianqian's tone was filled with a hint of grievance. Li Chong楼 coughed lightly.
"What do you mean 'finally decided to show up'? I wasn't on the run, I just had something to deal with and left Shangjing for a few days."
"You call that a few days? I don't want to waste time talking to you. Hurry up and come to the Yian Branch Bureau, I'll notify them now!"
Hearing her words, Li Chonglou could guess that she had been covering for him for quite some time. He could only nod in agreement. However, before going to her place, he still had to go back to the company.
Because Xiaobai had woken up.
Just as he made the call, perhaps because it had left the environment with spiritual energy, Xiaobai suddenly woke up.
As soon as it woke up, it leaped into Li Chonglou's arms and wiggled around.
"Alright, alright, settle down. I have a mission for you."
Talking to the empty air like this confused Old Wu, who was driving. Especially when he looked in the rearview mirror and saw Li Chonglou actually talking to a cat, his expression was even more comical.
The boss was actually a cat lover?
Considering Li Chonglou's image in their minds, although he was amiable, he had accomplished so many great things and could command experts like Yue Hai. Despite his amiable nature, he still had the image of a tough guy.
But now, the tough guy was a cat lover! Old Wu felt like he had discovered a new continent!
However, in the next moment, he froze.
As Li Chonglou finished speaking, Xiaobai immediately stopped moving and looked at him quietly, as if waiting for orders like a soldier.
Li Chonglou didn't notice Old Wu's attention and continued to instruct Xiaobai, "When we get back, I want you to protect someone for me. You must obey any orders he gives you, understand?"
Xiaobai nodded.
Old Wu, who was driving,'s eyes widened, his face full of disbelief.
"Boss, can your cat actually understand human language?"
Li Chonglou smiled. "It's not just a cat, but you have to keep this a secret."
Old Wu's expression turned serious, and he quickly nodded. "Don't worry, boss. I understand the rules. I won't say a word even to Old Gao and the others!"
"That's not necessary. Just don't let it leak out."
In fact, Xiaobai could be considered a safety measure. Youshan and Yingyan, after all, were humans and couldn't stay by Zhou Tong's side twenty-four hours a day, but Xiaobai could.
Moreover, Xiaobai could also have a psychological effect on Old Gao and the others. Especially as time went on, if he faced more and more enemies, Xiaobai's existence would undoubtedly be a source of reassurance for them.
Therefore, Li Chonglou didn't mind revealing Xiaobai's existence, as long as it wasn't intentional.
Upon returning to the company, Li Chonglou settled Xiaobai with Zhou Tong and also found Chen Pao along the way.
At this moment, the three of them were gathered together playing cards.
As soon as Li Chonglou returned, Yingyan was the first to speak. "Boss, can you persuade Brother Nan? We keep asking him to play mahjong, but he never comes. He just practices martial arts every day, aren't you afraid of qi deviation?"
Li Chonglou immediately rolled his eyes at him.
"I told you three to learn from him. There's no end to learning, don't you understand?"
Youshan mumbled in his deep voice, "I've already reached my limit. To go further, I need materials."
Speaking of this, Chen Pao couldn't help but interject. "Sigh, I've already ordered my materials, but because I'm out of money, I haven't gotten them yet."
The incident at the airport before had been greatly aided by his robotic monitors, but it had also resulted in the loss of several of them. The money obtained from the police had been almost entirely spent on this.
Li Chonglou coughed twice and changed his tune. "Don't worry, it's good to relax occasionally. Cullinan is a martial arts fanatic, so it's useless to ask him. Hmm, I'll recruit another person later."
Yingyan looked at him with an appreciative gaze, while Chen Pao asked curiously.
"Have you scouted another free agent expert somewhere?"
Li Chonglou smiled. "You guessed wrong this time. He probably isn't a free agent."
After saying that, Li Chonglou remembered his reason for coming and changed his tune again. "But it's not confirmed yet, he might be a free agent too."
"This is why I came to find you."
"Huh?"
Chen Pao looked puzzled.
Li Chonglou got straight to the point and asked if he knew Luo Feng. Chen Pao, as an unconventional expert who used his brain, had an intelligence system that was somewhat equivalent to Zhou Tong's status among ordinary people in their circle.
He had some understanding of various matters, big and small. The moment he saw Yingyan, he recognized his identity.
As expected, when Li Chonglou asked about Luo Feng, the latter immediately said he knew him.
"If I remember correctly, this guy is also an formidable person. Although he's around our age, his strength is comparable to the older generation of powerhouses."
"Especially his eyes, it's said they are naturally heterochromatic, but no one really knows what specific abilities they possess."
Li Chonglou nodded, feeling somewhat relieved because what Chen Pao said was basically consistent with what he knew.
But when he asked if Luo Feng was a member of the Xi Gang, Chen Pao's expression suddenly froze.
"Isn't this guy always a free agent?"
