Chapter 414 The Pu Family's Scheme

Mu Feng did not care if he had a broken bone, instead placing a foot on his face.

One must remember that there were quite a few people watching the scene. To have one's face trampled underfoot in front of so many people was nothing short of utter humiliation!

His face burned. All the harsh words he had spoken just moments ago were now ruthlessly trampled upon, his face slapped soundly.

"Save me, quick, save me!" Utterly humiliated, Park An Lin closed his eyes, tears involuntarily streaming down his face.

How dare those heavily injured experts step forward to intervene? Did they not want to keep their lives?

After exchanging glances, they all struggled to their feet, limping and fleeing in utter disarray.

Park An Lin was left alone in the entire airport, making him feel exceptionally helpless. A wave of regret washed over him.

Was it not good enough to honestly lead the way? Why the need to play tricks? Now his own life was at stake.

"This, this is all a misunderstanding. They were all sent by the Park family. Actually, they have nothing to do with me!"

To save his life, Park An Lin, with a thick skin, shamelessly shifted the blame.

Mu Feng removed his foot, crouched down, and stared at him. "A misunderstanding? Where are there so many misunderstandings? You're truly dishonest. If I weren't unfamiliar with the terrain, I would have finished you off right then and there!"

"I promise I won't do anything rash. Please, follow me!" Park An Lin was terrified.

Even if he were given the courage of a bear and the audacity of a leopard now, he wouldn't dare to play any more tricks!

"I warn you, if you dare to play dirty tricks on me again, I'll crush your skull next time!"

Mu Feng picked him up. A distinct shoe print was now emblazoned on his face, a mark of his humiliation.

At the same time, in a tea room within the Park family in Goryeo, a middle-aged man exuding an imposing aura slammed his palm on the table.

"Master, please calm your anger. Even a powerful dragon cannot easily subdue a local snake, let alone the fact that that person is not a powerful dragon at all!" a woman advised.

"This person's methods are rather skillful. He's heading directly towards the Park family now, and no one can stop him!"

This middle-aged man was none other than the Park family head, Park Seung Jun. Worry was etched on his face.

The woman smiled slightly. "Master, there's no need to rush. Sometimes, it's not necessary to confront them head-on. Moreover, this is our territory!"

He paused, his eyes lighting up. He pulled the woman into his embrace. "What? Do you have a good idea?"

"Oh, you! It's broad daylight!" she retorted, lowering her head.

"Quick, tell me what good plan you have. If you don't, hehe..."

"You're so indecent. It's very simple. Why don't we just arrange a Hongmen Banquet? You know, these Chinese people value courtesy!" httpδ:/m.kuAisugg.nět

"One doesn't strike a smiling person. As long as we host them warmly, we can then seize the opportunity when he's drunk at the banquet and take his life!"

The woman's face contorted into a vicious expression, as if killing someone was as simple as crushing an ant.

Park Seung Jun nodded in great satisfaction. "I didn't expect you to come up with such a brilliant idea! Tsk, tsk, wonderful! Let's do as you say!"

As he spoke, he unceremoniously groped the woman with considerable force.

Mu Feng, accompanied by Park An Lin, arrived at the Park family's residence.

The entire Park family estate spanned tens of acres, with imposing ancient Goryeo architecture. It was clear at a glance that this was a wealthy family.

However, what surprised Mu Feng was that a group of people were standing outside the main gate of the Park family mansion, seemingly welcoming someone with great enthusiasm.

Park Seung Jun was among them. He greeted Mu Feng with a beaming smile and extended his hand. "Esteemed guest from afar, hello, hello!"

Mu Feng was somewhat taken aback by this scene. What exactly was the Park family planning?

"Do we know each other? Are we very familiar?" he asked, frowning and not extending his hand.

Park Seung Jun chuckled awkwardly. "Ah, acquaintances are made through repeated interactions, Mr. Mu. Actually, the misunderstandings that occurred earlier were due to the impetuousness and recklessness of some of our younger family members. Here, I would like to offer an apology and hope you can let bygones be bygones!"

He paused, gesturing towards the interior of the mansion. "I have also prepared a banquet, and I sincerely hope you will grace us with your presence so that we may host you!"

Mu Feng waved his hand, his expressionless face saying, "There's no need for a welcome banquet. Do you think a single apology can resolve this?"

"Ah, Mr. Mu, you are also a prominent figure. You should have a broad perspective. Having a meal wouldn't hurt. It's a good opportunity for me to explain everything to you over drinks!"

Mu Feng, unsure of their true intentions, decided to play along and nodded. "Since you insist, I shall reluctantly accept."

Upon hearing this, Park Seung Jun breathed a sigh of relief and gestured warmly, "Mr. Mu, please, this way!"

Upon entering the Park family's courtyard, several high-ranking members of the Park family took their seats.

At a round table, Mu Feng's cup was filled with strong liquor, the alcoholic aroma stinging his nostrils.

Park Seung Jun immediately raised his cup to toast him. "Come, come, President Mu, please drink, please drink..."

"I'm afraid your status is not yet high enough to be toasting me while seated!"

The Park family's peculiar behavior was clearly a wolf trying to appease a chicken.

Although Mu Feng didn't know why they were acting this way, he was certain they had some hidden agenda. Thus, he didn't offer them much courtesy, as respect, after all, was mutual.

Park Seung Jun was taken aback. Suppressing his anger, he stood up with a fawning smile. "Come, Mr. Mu, I will toast you!"

"Don't you understand what I mean?" Mu Feng's lips curved slightly.

He asked with a hint of surprise, "Ah? I... I don't quite understand!"

"Do I need to be any clearer? Honestly, none of the people present here are qualified to drink with me!"

"Of course, I am a relatively accommodating person. I invite you to kneel and toast me!"

Mu Feng's words were startling, causing everyone present to freeze in shock. Following that, numerous glares of fury were fixed upon him across the table.

Park Seung Jun's facial muscles twitched uncontrollably. "Kneel? Kneel to toast?"

"Indeed. In our China, we place great emphasis on etiquette. If you don't toast, wouldn't that be improper?"

Mu Feng intended to provoke these people, to expose their true colors.

"This... this might not be appropriate. We in Goryeo do not have such customs!"

Park Seung Jun stood frozen, caught in an awkward predicament, unsure of how to proceed. However, kneeling was absolutely out of the question for him.

After all, the Park family was a chaebol lineage, a supremely influential entity in Goryeo. How could they possibly tolerate such an insult and kneel to someone else?
