Lin Mei didn't even get to speak before Liu He hung up the phone.
"Did he really think I'd contact him first? Hmph!"
Lin Mei let out a contemptuous snort from deep within her throat.
However, after hanging up, thinking of Lu Feng, she decided to call Liu He again that evening.
Lu Feng was currently in his room, relaxing his tired body.
After two and a half hours of sleep,
He felt much lighter.
Getting up from the bed,
In Lu Feng's mind,
The plan that had been there all along was now becoming clearer.
Within three days,
Get the assistant to step down.
Although after doing so,
This assistant would already be a frightened bird.
At this moment, having suffered a setback with Zhang Yun, this person would surely make a decision.
And Zhang Yun at this time,
How intelligent a person he was.
Even though he knew the assistant was his lucky star who had brought him to his current position,
After all, the business world is like a battlefield.
Those immersed in it care nothing for past favors.
It's always been: if it benefits me, I'll greet you with a smile; if it doesn't, even if I have to fight to the death, I'll distance myself from it.
Zhang Yun appeared friendly with the assistant, but now, most likely, seven or eight pairs of eyes were staring intently at the assistant.
In this situation, it would be difficult not to have any mishaps.
However, since Lu Feng had guaranteed it, he still had to add a little more fuel to the fire.
And for this fire, he needed to ask Zhang Dong for another small favor.
Zhang Dong was either fishing by the riverbank or spending time in bars lately.
It was morning, and the weather was mild.
Beside a wild pond in the western suburbs of Dongnan City,
A black business van was quite conspicuous.
Lu Feng followed Zhang Dong's directions over the phone to this place. Zhang Dong was intently watching the water surface, dotted with tiny bubbles.
"He's here, he's here!"
"Good, not bad!"
A subordinate beside him, seeing Zhang Dong catch a big fish, couldn't help but cheer.
"Alright," Zhang Dong heard footsteps and reeled in his fishing rod, looking in the direction of the sound.
"What? You're done so quickly?"
Zhang Dong glanced at Lu Feng, who was walking towards him, and asked.
"Almost!"
"No rush, I trust you to handle your business!"
"Sit down!"
Saying that, Zhang Dong pulled a small stool from the trunk of a nearby car and handed it to Lu Feng.
He could tell at a glance that Lu Feng wasn't here just to watch him fish.
He quickly said, "Brother Lu, is there something you need today?"
Lu Feng was his savior.
Although they hadn't gone through life and death together, after just a few encounters, Zhang Dong had already regarded him as a brother with whom he'd risk his life.
Before Lu Feng could speak, Zhang Dong continued generously and heartily, "Brother Lu, if you need money, I'll provide it; if you need people, I'll provide them!"
Zhang Dong was not lacking in either of these aspects at the moment.
What he lacked now was opportunity.
An opportunity to impress his father, Zhang Ke.
And this young man in front of him had the capability to give him such an opportunity.
"Since Brother Zhang Dong is so generous, I won't be polite. Last time it was money, this time it's people!"
"Who? Just say it!"
Zhang Dong didn't even hesitate for half a second.
"Okay, this time it's like this."
Lu Feng leaned closer to Zhang Dong and explained his entire strategy to him.
Before Lu Feng could finish, Zhang Dong immediately said, "That's easy. We have people like that readily available. Don't worry, not three days, but within one day, I'll have it all arranged. After all, you are who you are!"
This was the first time Zhang Dong had praised someone so highly since he was a child.
"Alright, thank you. I'll be going now."
Seeing Lu Feng turn to leave,
"Wait," Zhang Dong called out to Lu Feng, "Let my subordinate drive you back."
After speaking, he glanced at his subordinate beside him.
"Yes!"
The subordinate was extremely reluctant in his heart.
Isn't he just some flashy young man?
Is he really worth his boss treating him like this?
Isn't he giving him too much face, elevating his status a bit too high?
But since Zhang Dong had agreed,
He couldn't say much more.
Only after this person drove Lu Feng back,
And then returned, this subordinate cautiously approached Zhang Dong, who was engrossed in fishing.
"Brother Zhang."
"What is it?" Zhang Dong was slightly impatient when called suddenly. He turned and noticed it was his subordinate, and said, "Keep your voice down, you almost scared the fish away!"
"What is it, tell me?" Seeing his subordinate looking like he had something stuck in his throat and couldn't wait to speak,
Zhang Dong's voice brightened.
The subordinate didn't hesitate: "Brother Zhang, you say, that person just now, isn't the way he's carrying himself a bit too arrogant? We really don't need to hold him in such high regard, do we? Doesn't this undermine your status?"
After all, Zhang Dong was currently Zhang Ke's son.
The sole heir of the Zhang family at the moment.
With such a title in Dongnan City,
Anyone involved in business would treat him with the reverence of a devout believer seeing Guanyin Bodhisattva.
They would invariably prostrate themselves in worship.
"But this kid, Brother Zhang, I feel like this kid is treating us like suckers?"
Although these words weren't spoken directly, each one was like a sharp sword.
"Is that so?"
Zhang Dong stopped holding his fishing rod.
Seeing that his few words seemed to have struck a chord with Zhang Dong,
The subordinate almost forgot who he was and what his status was for a moment.
He immediately continued to babble incessantly.
"Yes, Brother Zhang, we are all respectable people. What is someone like him? Are we the ones controlling them, or are they controlling us!"
"You really think so? However, what you're saying does make some sense!"
"Yes, yes!"
The subordinate was instantly elated by Zhang Dong's words.
However, before he could say anything further,
*Slap!*
A loud slap landed squarely on his face.
The ground near the wild pond was already soft and slippery.
With this unexpected slap,
The subordinate, who was standing at the edge of the pond, instantly lost his balance.
He immediately plunged headfirst into the nearby pond.
"What are you doing, Brother Zhang?"
Standing at the edge of the pond, with the water up to his neck, the subordinate was completely bewildered.
Didn't they just have a good conversation?
While he was wondering,
Zhang Dong's low and menacing voice reached his ears.
"I'm warning you, don't you dare speak ill of my friend in front of me. I hate that kind of thing the most. This time, I'm sending you into the pond; next time, who knows. Do you understand?"
The subordinate dared not utter another word.
He stood there and nodded repeatedly.
Meanwhile, within the Taitai Group, after the assistant's unpleasant encounter with Zhang Yun,
The assistant's mood had been extremely low.
