Naturally, he wasn't a fool.
In the world of business, human relationships were always shallow.
Lin Feng had seen this kind of situation before.
Just as he was about to pull Lu Feng aside and give him some instructions, urging Lu Feng to make his move and seize this hard-won lifeline,
Before his hand could even be raised,
The deathly silence was suddenly broken by a voice.
"This matter, I, Qin Qiong, am duty-bound!"
Hearing this, Lin Feng felt as if he had been struck by a thunderbolt.
His earlier behavior clearly indicated...
Lin Feng's inner apprehension and suspicion, like a flood from a broken dam, could no longer be controlled.
Sensing Lin Feng's confusion, Lu Feng merely shook his head slightly.
Qin Qiong's demeanor earlier had indeed made his heart skip a beat.
However, having decided to come here, Lu Feng was certainly not prepared with just one plan.
If Qin Qiong remained silent now, he wouldn't hesitate to employ his second strategy.
Fortunately, although they knew each other from the business world, Qin Qiong's character was not bad.
Lu Feng didn't need to be harsh.
Even though his second plan wasn't needed, he still had to clarify things clearly.
After all, this matter, though seemingly simple, was merely helping the Lin family transport goods.
Qin Qiong, who was involved in live-streaming e-commerce and possessed a vast supply chain, had the channels and the capability.
However, this action was equivalent to one person challenging the entire business community of Southeast City.
Although Lu Feng had over seventy percent confidence in his heart,
And he had some idea of how to proceed after this matter was resolved,
There was still a thirty percent chance of miscalculation.
Since he had decided to undertake this task, Lu Feng had to consider all aspects, good or bad, with utmost caution.
Even though Qin Qiong regarded him as a benefactor, he could not exploit her goodwill and drag her into this without her full understanding.
Thus, Lu Feng took a deep breath and slowly exhaled.
Setting down the teacup in his hand, he stood up.
"What are you doing?"
Noticing Lu Feng's sudden action, Qin Qiong couldn't help but feel a bit perplexed.
But before she could finish her words, Lu Feng interrupted her.
Lu Feng's expression was calm.
"Ms. Qin," as his voice spread around, a hint of seriousness appeared on his face.
"This matter is not as easy as it seems, and it is quite dangerous."
Qin Qiong was also a seasoned individual, and with just a glance, she immediately understood what Lu Feng intended to say.
However, this time, she didn't respond directly but instead asked,
"So? You didn't come here today to ask for my help?"
Knowing that she was deliberately provoking him, Lu Feng smiled faintly. After a brief pause, he continued,
"Of course, we are aware of your kindness, Ms. Qin, and we sincerely hope you can help us. However, before that, I hope you will allow me a few minutes to explain the current predicament of the Lin family."
For others, Lu Feng might not have said so much.
But Qin Qiong was different.
Although this was their first encounter, he had indeed helped her.
However, in this world, how many people were ungrateful?
At this moment, the Lin family was in decline, and Qin Qiong could have easily refused.
Yet, she did not add insult to injury. This person was reliable.
With this thought in mind, Lu Feng was about to speak, to pour out the well-rehearsed words that had been brewing in his heart.
However, this time again, before Lu Feng could utter a single word,
Qin Qiong stopped him.
Qin Qiong now had a composed and self-assured demeanor, though it was unclear when it had appeared.
That's right, when she first heard Lu Feng's intention, she was indeed taken aback.
However, her surprise was not because she realized these two people were here to ask for her help.
It was because she hadn't expected the Lin family to encounter such a situation.
Despite her astonishment, Qin Qiong had no other thoughts.
Now that they had come to her for help,
She was definitely going to assist them. In that case, why bother knowing so much?
Therefore, Qin Qiong was completely open and unreserved.
"Lu Feng, your saying this is enough for me. However, I, Qin Qiong, have always been like this towards my friends. Since I've decided to help you, does it matter whether you tell me or not!"
"Isn't it just that someone intends to make a move against the Lin family? You're probably worried about me getting caught in the crossfire, but I, Qin Qiong, have always been rebellious. Today, I'll state this clearly: even if someone comes looking for trouble with me because of this matter in the future, I, Qin Qiong, will fight to the end. The worst outcome would be bankruptcy, which I, Qin Qiong, can handle."
Every word she spoke was powerful and resolute.
Lin Feng's eyes blinked continuously upon hearing this.
He found it hard to believe that such words could come from a gentle woman.
With her having said so much, it would be redundant for Lu Feng to continue.
However, he would certainly not treat her unfairly.
Lu Feng slowly raised his teacup: "There is no wine here, so let us toast with tea."
He raised his teacup and drank it all in one go. "However, I, Lu Feng, am not a petty person, and the Lin family is certainly not. Since you, Ms. Qin, are helping us this time, in the future, if the Qin family has any problems, we will face them together. Brother Lin, am I right?"
With that, Lu Feng's gaze fell upon Lin Feng, who was still in a state of surprise.
Lin Feng suddenly snapped back to reality. At this moment, to have someone offer assistance, he was already immensely grateful.
At this juncture, any condition was within his acceptable range.
"Brother Lu is right, yes, yes!"
"If that's the case, time is short. Ms. Qin, perhaps you could make the arrangements now!"
Lu Feng lowered his voice and looked at Qin Qiong again.
At this moment, Qin Qiong was an expert in logistics.
In a short while, she displayed her decisive and efficient nature in front of the two men.
"Hello, are you there? Temporarily halt the shipment of that batch of goods for Dongcheng Media."
"Clear a transportation line from the warehouse in the northern part of Southeast City."
"Highest priority, regardless of cost, ensure this batch of goods is transported to its destination."
"Yes!"
After several phone calls, Qin Qiong let out a slow breath.
After a brief pause, she glanced at Lu Feng. "Wait until the afternoon, and we'll rendezvous at the transit warehouse in the northern part of Southeast City!"
"Thank you!"
This was truly a timely act of kindness. No words could adequately express Lin Feng's gratitude at this moment.
This overwhelming emotion finally coalesced into these two simple yet powerful words.
Qin Qiong looked at the two of them and smiled. "You're welcome. Lu Feng, don't forget what you promised."
Lu Feng had said that they would share the burden in the future.
Lu Feng's lips curled up. "Don't worry, I, Lu Feng, always keep my word!"
However, he had no intention of leaving immediately.
At this moment, he once again focused his gaze on Qin Qiong.
