Chapter 749
Now that he knew that the call was coming from within the confines of the island, although Ji Feng did not yet know who exactly had such a great hatred for him that he had to put himself to death before he was willing to do so, it did not stop him from taking this matter extremely seriously.
Because he could not guess who the person who made this threatening phone call to him was, Ji Feng could not come to any conclusion for the time being, so Ji Feng just put this person into a separate party and was on high alert, no different than he was with Dynasty in general.
“No matter who you are, as long as you dare to come, don’t even think about going back.” Ji Feng coldly snorted, and as soon as his foot stepped on the accelerator, the BMW x6 sped off and raced down the road.
“Ding ……”
Ji Feng had just picked up speed when his mobile phone suddenly rang again, and couldn’t help but shake his head with a smile as he slowly slowed the car down and parked it on the side of the road before finally putting on his headphones and picking up the phone, “Who is it please?”
As he spoke, he turned his head and looked around, noticing that the snow on the ground had become very deep and that the flakes were falling more and more rapidly outside. Under such circumstances, it was already quite good to be able to bring the car up to speed, one could not drive and talk on the phone, otherwise, God knows when his hands would shake and the car would slide into the deep puddles on both sides of the road.
“Young Ji?” A crisp and sweet woman’s voice suddenly came over the phone with a hint of sweetness.
“Hmm?!”
Ji Feng was suddenly stunned, a woman looking for himself? Moreover, this voice seemed somewhat familiar, but he just couldn’t remember where he had heard it for a while.
“Which one is the lady?” Ji Feng asked indifferently.
“Young Ji, nowadays, when addressing a girl, you can’t directly address her as Miss Oh, these two words now have an extremely special meaning!” The slightly sweet voice on the phone said softly with a hint of laughter.
Ji Feng shook his head a little, snapped, and hung up the phone directly. At the same time, he started the car and cursed, “Nuts, why do these people like to hide their heads so much on the phone, is this interesting?”
After half a day of talking, he still didn’t know who the other party was. With Ji Feng’s character, he naturally wouldn’t bullSh*t with the other party any further, although he had a lot of time, but there was no need to waste it on such things as if he was hiding. Xiao Yuxuan and Tong Lei had always restricted him from talking on the phone while driving, not to mention the fact that the roads were so difficult now, and Ji Feng naturally wanted to concentrate on driving.
“This is ……”
In a luxurious hotel room in Jiangzhou, a voluptuous and beautiful woman with a beautiful posture was sitting stunned at the head of the bed, holding the handset of the bedside landline phone in her hand, her originally beautiful and matchless pretty face was filled with consternation at this time, and only after a long time could she not help but say, “He, he hung up the phone?”
“Could it be that Ji Feng heard that it was me, so he just hung up the phone? Or was it for some other reason?” The gorgeous woman couldn’t help but hesitate a little, if the other party really heard out that it was himself and still hung up the phone so directly, then this was a question worth playing around with.
But this gorgeous woman could not be sure whether Ji Feng had hung up the phone because of himself, or whether he had hung up the phone for some other reason.
The specific reason, however, was related to what he should do next, which was the most important thing.
“Beep beep beep ……” The gorgeous woman’s white fingers pressed on the telephone keypad several times in succession, but then stopped, she thought about it and still pressed the hang-up port, then quickly pressed a few more numbers, “Shao He, this is Fei Fei ah, it’s like this, there’s something I want to bother you with ……”
It turned out that this gorgeous woman was no other than the eldest lady of the Jiangzhe Zhou family, who had once dealt with Ji Feng, Zhou Fei Fei!
Her younger brother, Zhou Shilin, is still in prison to this day because of Ji Feng’s ‘meddling’. Ji Feng would never have thought that Zhou Fei Fei, who he thought in his heart would surely hate him to death, would actually come to Jiangzhou to look for him, which is really strange.
“Who is this phone call from?”
Ji Feng restarted the car, but in his heart he was secretly wondering if he hadn’t read the calendar today, how come he was receiving such inexplicable calls. Before, it was the threatening phone call from that hatred almost from the bone, and now it was from this woman who sounded like she knew him well.
…… Well, Ji Feng also knew that this last caller’s voice did sound somewhat familiar, but who exactly it was, he couldn’t remember for a while …… A woman that you can’t even remember can also be called familiar with you?
If not, then why did she speak to him in such a familiar tone as a matter of course? Is it because she wants to get close to herself?
Ji Feng couldn’t help but snicker, but he didn’t think that the other party was really trying to get close to him!
After looking at the sky, which was already getting dark, Ji Feng was in no hurry to drive, so he picked up the phone and called Tong Lei first.
“Ji Feng, when are you coming back?” Tong Lei’s brittle voice came out, making Ji Feng feel much better at once.
“Lei Lei, I have some things to do over here, I might have to come home a little later, so you guys don’t have to wait for me.” Ji Feng smiled and said.
“Mm, then pay attention to safety when you drive, it’s snowing so hard outside.” Tong Lei softly admonished.
Ji Feng smiled and nodded his head, saying, “Don’t worry, I’ll pay attention.”
“Then you come back as soon as you can oh.” Tong Lei once again admonished, before hanging up the phone.
“It’s really nice to have a home.” Ji Feng hung up the phone and couldn’t help but smile faintly.
Afterwards, he dialed He Hongwei’s number again. Originally, the two of them had agreed to meet in the evening, but looking at the current weather conditions, it would definitely be difficult to go at night, so he planned to move up the time of their meeting.
“What do you say, old brother?” He Hongwei picked up the phone and asked with a smile.
“It’s like this, I don’t know if Mr. He has time now, I might not be able to spare the time in the evening, if you have time now, why don’t you come out and sit down?” Ji Feng simply stated his purpose.
“Good, I was just about to call you!” He Hongwei laughed, “I’ll go to the Flavour and Fragrance Residence now.”
“Call me?”
Ji Feng asked with a smile, “What, do you have other plans for the evening as well?”
“That’s not true.” He Hongwei laughed, “I came to Jiangzhou with no other business on my side, mainly to find old brother for a few drinks. I say, old brother, your temper is not small, you just hang up the phone when one is not as good as you want.”
Ji Feng was stunned: “What do you mean?”
“Oh, it’s nothing, then I’ll go to the Flavour and Fragrance Residence first, and wait for old brother’s arrival!” He Hongwei said with a smile. He then hung up the phone, leaving a bewildered Ji Feng behind.
“What does that mean? Whose phone did I hang up on?” Ji Feng couldn’t help but be a bit stunned, He Hongwei was obviously not talking to himself about this without a reason, but, from this morning until now, he had only taken the initiative to hang up on that woman just now …… The woman?
The woman who called just now couldn’t be related to He Hongwei, could she?
When you think about it, if the two of them really had a relationship, or even if that phone call itself was made by that woman at the behest of He Hongwei, then it would not be difficult to explain why He Hongwei said that to himself.
“Sh*t!”
Ji Feng couldn’t help but cursed, what’s the logic of not being able to call me personally to tell me what’s going on and having to have a woman call herself!
He shook his head slightly, started the car, turned around and headed in the direction of the Flavor and Fragrance Residence on Jinling Road.
……
Once again, when he arrived at the Taste and Fragrance Residence, Ji Feng could not help but feel a bit emotional. About a year ago, it was here that the first conflict between himself and Dynasty took place, and it could even be said that it was a sudden encounter. From that time onwards, the dynasty’s ghosts have been appearing around himself from time to time.
And the series of events that followed could all be said to have started from here.
This time, almost a year had pa*sed, and while one was now a sopH*more, Dynasty had suffered a heavy blow in China and now moved to the island country.
“D*mn Dynasty, D*mn Island!” Once he thought of the island country, Ji Feng couldn’t help but be filled with resentment, this island country was really a place where dirt was hidden, all kinds of cats and dogs were running to the island country, thinking that if he hid in the island country, there was nothing he could do?
These thoughts flashed through his mind as Ji Feng parked his car and walked into the Taste and Fragrance Residence with big steps.
Even though it was still snowing heavily outside, the Taste and Fragrance House was not cold and even the streets were as busy as ever, as if those pedestrians were not affected by the snow at all, which could not help but make Ji Feng a little puzzled, was shopping more important than the body?
Naturally he couldn’t understand the mentality of those people, for many people, feeling the prosperity of Jiangzhou was what they were most happy to do.
“Hello sir, do you have a reserved seat?”
A waitress asked politely as soon as Ji Feng walked into the Taste and Fragrance Restaurant, her face, with a sweet smile, was completely devoid of the professional smile Ji Feng had seen before.
This was still a good shop, and you could tell how the owner of this place was from the waitress’s attitude.
At once, Ji Feng had a good impression of this Flavour and Fragrance Restaurant, he shook his head slightly and said, “There’s no reservation, I’m here to find someone, my friend’s surname is He.”
“You are Mr Ji, right?” The waitress immediately asked and when she saw Ji Feng nodding, she immediately said, “Sir, please follow me, your friend has arrived and is waiting for you in the private room upstairs.”
“Many thanks!” Ji Feng smiled and nodded, after thinking about it, he still took out a few notes and handed them over, “This is for you!”
“Sir is too polite, however, your friend has already given a tip just now, we have a rule in the shop that we are not allowed to charge double, please forgive me sir!” The waiter said with a sincere attitude.
Ji Feng was instantly impressed and said with a smile and a nod, “So that’s how it is.”
“This way please, sir!”
Led by the waiter, Ji Feng arrived outside a box on the third floor, and along the way, he walked past, but wherever there was a waiter, when he saw Ji Feng, he would politely say, “Welcome!”
This made Ji Feng feel no less than a restaurant that could survive on Jinling Road, the attitude of these waiters alone was enough to fill this restaurant to capacity.
Ji Feng had been to quite a few restaurants, but to be fair, he had never seen any restaurant whose waiters would have the sincerity and warmth of the attitude of the waiters at this Taste and Fragrance House!
Chapter 750
In fact, what impressed Ji Feng the most about those waiters in big hotels was still the image of two waiters in a movie he had once seen – ‘Crazy Race’.
In this movie, several gang members asked the two front desk attendants of a five-star hotel when they were looking for that Thai athlete they were meeting with.
As a result, out of impatience, one of the waiters slams the table and grimaces, questioning, “This is a five-star hotel, where are your attitudes and manners!”
In the end, instead, it was the gangster who hurriedly apologised, which prevented the two waiters from continuing to lash out again.
This strongly ironic image made Ji Feng laugh at the first sight.
It had to be said that although this was only an exaggeration in the movie, in reality, there were countless waiters with such arrogant attitudes that they thought they were much more bullish than the customers.
Many waiters who work for other people think that they are just getting a dead salary, and that if their attitude is good, they won’t get a bonus, and if their attitude is bad, many customers won’t be able to say anything, so their attitude is often very bad.
For those who run their own shops, it doesn’t matter if they have a bad attitude, I don’t want to do your business, right?
It’s hard to buy money to make me happy!
This has become their reason and motto for branding themselves.
Ji Feng’s impression of this film was extremely deep, and coupled with his usual contact with some waiters, it made him not discriminate against these people, but he definitely did not have a lot of good feelings towards them either, he just turned a blind eye to them and tried his best not to see them.
Of course, Ji Feng also knows very well that such bad attitude waiters are actually only a small number of people, many of them actually have a very good attitude.
It is only because there are a lot of unreasonable customers that those waiters with smiling faces are gradually wearing out their smiles when they encounter rude customers, and eventually turning cold and icy.
This is one of the reasons why the attitude of the service industry is getting worse and worse. As the saying goes, it is not a day’s cold to freeze three feet of ice, and this is the truth.
“Sir, we are here, your friend is waiting for you inside!” Following the waiter to the third floor, Ji Feng arrived outside the door of a private room called Yong Hua Ting, and the waiter said politely.
“Hm? Oh, thanks!” The waiter’s voice made Ji Feng, whose thoughts had drifted far away, snap back to his senses, he couldn’t help but shake his head and smile, what was he thinking about, in this materialistic society, it was better not to think about it, it was better not to see it.
At the entrance of the box, there were two young men dressed in black, when they saw Ji Feng, one of them immediately asked, “Excuse me, is this Mr. Ji?”
Ji Feng nodded slightly, “It’s me.”
“Please come in, sir, our boss is waiting for you inside.” The youth immediately opened the compartment door and said respectfully.
“Thank you!”
Ji Feng nodded politely and walked in with big steps.
However, when Ji Feng took a good look inside, he was a little stunned.
In the box, He Hongwei was sitting on the sofa opposite the door, fiddling with a tablet computer in his hand, not knowing what he was working on. Opposite him, however, sat a gorgeous lady, surprisingly, it was Fei Fei Zhou!
Apart from that, there was also a middle-aged man wearing gold-rimmed gla*ses, who was sitting not far next to Zhou Fei Fei, looking a little restrained and was whispering something to Zhou Fei Fei.
“Young Ji!”
Zhou Fei Fei was the first to spot Ji Feng coming in, she immediately stood up, smiled sweetly and said, “Once again, we meet again, Ji Shao’s aura is even better than before.”
“Don’t patronise me indiscriminately, I’ll take it seriously!” Ji Feng smiled faintly, collecting the stunned emotions in his heart, and couldn’t help but joke about it.
Zhou Fei Fei couldn’t help but purse her lips and smile, but in her heart, she was slightly relieved, since Ji Feng could joke, it proved that he didn’t have a big prejudice against himself, even if he only did so because he was giving face to He Hongwei, it could be said that it was a good sign.
“Here it comes!” He Hongwei put the tablet down in his hand and laughed, “You wouldn’t be around here, would you? Why did you come so quickly?”
“Your Young Master He summoned me, do I dare not come quickly?” Ji Feng snickered.
“You brat!”
He Hongwei couldn’t help but lose his smile, “I haven’t offended you, have I?”
Ji Feng waved his hand with a smile and said, “You are now my god of wealth, even if you offended me, would I dare to say anything?”
“Ji Feng, that’s a bit of a slap in the face.” He Hongwei laughed, “Now nearly ten percent of Tian Yao Group’s profits come from the special effects current produced by the Tengfei Pharmaceutical Factory, so technically speaking, you’re my god of wealth.”
“I say, you two young masters should stop boasting about each other, both of you are dragons and phoenixes among men, if you continue to praise each other, this little Flavour and Fragrance Residence will not be able to accommodate you two.” Zhou Fei Fei giggled and joked at the side.
Ji Feng laughed and casually sat down on the sofa and asked, “Say, what would you like to eat, I’ll be the host today, you don’t have to be polite, just order.”
“Ji Feng, that’s not right, I’m the one treating you today, how can you take away from the host!” He Hongwei laughed.
“I seem to be the host in Jiangzhou, right?” Ji Feng said.
“Today is different!”
He Hongwei waved his hand with a smile and said, “The main reason for inviting you here today is to thank you, so naturally I’ll be the one to treat you, Ji Shao, you must give a chance to return the favour, right?”
“Hmm?” Ji Feng was stunned, did He Hongwei owe himself a favour?
“Let’s eat first, we’ll talk while we eat!” He Hongwei didn’t explain in detail, he just greeted with a smile.
Ji Feng nodded slightly and said, “It’s fine, you’re a big boss, since you’re so sincere in treating us, it’s natural to rip us a good meal. Mr Zhou, whatever you want to eat, don’t be polite, saving money for Big Boss He would be like not giving him face!”
Zhou Fei Fei smiled and nodded, but didn’t answer, just pursed her lips and smiled. She knew very well that the conversation between Ji Feng and He Hongwei was not something that she could get involved in now, and perhaps which seemingly ordinary sentence between these two might have some hidden mystery in it.
Zhou Fei Fei, a businessman like her, was not in touch with high-level matters.
However, she could tell that what He Hongwei had just said about inviting Ji Feng to dinner was true. Perhaps, He Hongwei really owed Ji Feng a favour, and it was impossible to say.
But if that was the case, it was hard to say whether Ji Feng would give himself face later.
For a while, countless thoughts flooded through Zhou Fei Fei’s mind.
But Ji Feng did not know the thoughts in Zhou Fei Fei’s mind, he came to the table and sat down, he casually picked up the menu, looked at it for half a day, but did not order a single dish, only slightly frowned at the menu, “Hold the moon in your arms, four seas family …… What kind of dishes are these?”
“Huh ……” He Hongwei laughed, “These menus are all just for show, I’ve already ordered the dishes.”
“You didn’t say so earlier!” Ji Feng couldn’t help but hum.
At this time, He Hongwei and Zhou Fei Fei had already sat down at the table, but the middle-aged man who had spoken to Zhou Fei Fei did not follow him, instead, he smiled and said, “A few of you chat first, I’ll go and see if the food is ready!”
In fact, he left at this point. On such occasions, he, an outsider, could not intervene, nor did he have anything to say. The main characters of today’s meal were Ji Feng and He Hongwei, and even Zhou Fei Fei could only be considered a companion.
“Young master He, why did you say before that I hang up on others?” Ji Feng was a bit puzzled, “Whose phone number did I hang up?”
Zhou Fei Fei suddenly blushed slightly and looked more or less embarra*sed, but did not say anything, just filled up the wine for Ji Feng and He Hongwei first and sat aside in silence.
He Hongwei chuckled and said, “When Fifi called you earlier, you didn’t even ask her name and just hung up.”
“Fifi?”
Ji Feng was stunned, then suddenly reacted and immediately looked at Fei Fei Zhou, frowning, “You made the previous call?”
Only then did it dawn on him, no wonder he heard that voice sounded so familiar at that time, it turned out to be Fei Fei Zhou calling.
“Yes, but I didn’t know that young Ji was busy at the time, so I’m sorry for the disturbance!” Zhou Fei Fei said with some embarra*sment.
Ji Feng shook his head and laughed: “Sorry, I didn’t know it was you, I wasn’t busy at the time …… Next time if you call with me, please just give your name, I don’t like to guess!”
This man!
Zhou Fei Fei was instantly embarra*sed beyond words in her heart, she said that Ji Feng was busy at that time, but she only wanted to find a step for herself, but unexpectedly Ji Feng was directly tearing down her step, making her unable to get off the stage.
“You B*****d!”
He Hongwei immediately laughed: “So tough with a girl too?”
Ji Feng said with a serious face, “I’m not being competitive with Miss Zhou, what I said, is true, I hate guessing calls, if I can’t hear the voice, I’ll just hang up! My time, I won’t waste on that!”
“That’s right, I don’t really like guessing calls either!” He Hongwei, however, nodded in deep agreement.
Only then was Zhou Fei Fei’s heart slightly relieved, it seemed that Ji Feng wasn’t really targeting himself, but just had this distinctive habit.
“Young Ji, I’m sorry!” Zhou Fei Fei said.
Ji Feng waved his hand and laughed, “Far from it, if I knew it was you calling, how could I not hang up, otherwise, Young Master He would not spare me!”
“Hmm?!”
Zhou Fei Fei and He Hong Wei were both stunned, both of them glanced at each other and then looked at Ji Feng strangely. Zhou Fei Fei’s pretty face was even redder as she opened her mouth to say something, but in the end nothing came out.
He Hongwei, however, lost his smile: “Older brother, where are you thinking, Fei Fei and I, we are just friends.”
“That’s right, it’s friends, I didn’t think of it in other ways either!” Ji Feng harrumphed and said, “Absolutely not!”
