Chapter 58: Chapter 58 Making Progress at Work (Seeking Recommendations)

"Ling Feng, do we really not need to keep an eye on them?" After leaving Keller, Bai Feifei asked with some concern, "What if they’re still plotting something?"

Ling Feng said indifferently, "Don’t worry, didn’t that middle-aged man in the robe say that Keller and his group’s intentions have already been noticed by our people? If they’re smart, they’ll behave themselves. But if they insist on challenging Huaxia, I’m afraid it won’t be so easy for them to get away!"

"Ling Feng, do you think I’m a failure?" Suddenly, Bai Feifei spoke with a trace of melancholy, "I’m supposedly in charge of the security here, but things keep going wrong. I’m supposed to be a criminal police officer, but I can’t see through the ways of the world like you do! I even doubt myself sometimes!"

Ling Feng said indifferently, "You don’t have to feel that way, you are already very accomplished among your peers. It’s just that you have too little experience and aren’t fully aware of the treacherousness of human hearts. Given some time, I believe you will become an excellent criminal police officer!"

Bai Feifei took a deep breath and then nodded solemnly, "I will definitely become a great police officer! Master Ling Feng, I’ll need your guidance in the future!"

Ling Feng stumbled, almost falling over, "What? What did you call me?"

"Master!" Bai Feifei said as a matter of course, "Didn’t you say that once we catch the assassin, you’d agree to take me as your disciple? Now that it’s all settled, I naturally want to keep my promise!"

"When did I agree to that?" Ling Feng felt a headache coming on; seeing Bai Feifei’s sly gaze, he realized that she was bound and determined to stick with him!

"I don’t care, from now on, you are my master!" Bai Feifei declared, "Master, I’m going to do the final inspection, so you don’t have to. You better go back and enjoy the evening event!"

Having said that, Bai Feifei’s figure disappeared.

At that moment, on the roof of a building adjacent to the Double Twelve event venue, stood a distinguished-looking man. The strong wind blew through his clothes, rustling softly. Shrouded by the night sky, his entire presence was filled with a mysterious aura.

"Ok, everything is settled!" At that time, the middle-aged man in the robe appeared, saying cheerfully, "I never expected the Dragon King to enjoy the evening breeze like this. Don’t catch a cold—if you do, this divine doctor won’t treat you!"

The Dragon King turned his head, looking at the carefree middle-aged man and said with a bitter smile, "Dong Fengyue, how did things go?"

Dong Fengyue, the man in the robe, replied, "With this divine doctor on the case, the remedy was at hand. But I have to admit I admire that old woman for daring to come to Huaxia to face death. Tsk, I may disdain her approach, but I do admire her courage."

"Even if we admire her, we can’t let our Huaxia boys become their pawns!" The Dragon King said calmly, "Now that this matter is over, are you planning to return to the Dragon Group with me, or..."

"As if I would go back to the Dragon Group with you!" Dong Fengyue refused outright, "Why should I go back? To obey your commands? Dragon King, don’t think that just because I helped you this time, it means our grudges are settled. For what you’ve done to Lan Xin, I will never forgive you!"

"Lan Xin..." The Dragon King fell silent, a trace of sorrow flashing across his eyes.

"By the way, how is the boy?" After a moment of silence, the Dragon King changed the subject.

Dong Fengyue curled his lip, his own heart aching at the mention of Lan Xin, "Hmph, not bad, quite strong! Definitely much better than you were back then! What about it? Thinking of recruiting him into the Dragon Group?"

The Dragon King hesitated for a moment, then shook his head, "Forget it, although he is powerful, his mysterious identity makes it unwise to rashly enlist him into the Dragon Group. However, doesn’t he seem to be a bit too popular with the girls? What’s the story with Bai Feifei and Yun Hanrui?"

Dong Fengyue sneered, "I see you’re sticking your nose in quite broadly, caring about whether he can attract girls or not. As long as the girls who follow him have no regrets in their hearts, isn’t that enough? Who are you to know the joy of fish?"

"That’s true, but after all, he is..."

"Mind your own business!" Dong Fengyue said coldly, "To have a standoff with your daughter to this extent, I really wonder how you manage it! With your emotional intelligence, that you could have Lan Xin’s unwavering devotion, is truly unbelievable!"

"I’m off, don’t bother looking for me unless it’s important!" Dong Fengyue waved his hand, and in a flash, he disappeared.

Dragon King sighed, gazing down at the venue with a complex look in his eyes.

...

Ling Feng felt a chill on his skin, as if something was watching him. He looked around, but didn’t spot anyone suspicious.

"Ah, Bai Feifei is driving me to the brink of nervous breakdown!" Ling Feng thought helplessly.

When he arrived at Yun Hanrui’s spot, thankfully, Chen Ningxue had already left, and Yun Hanrui was idly fiddling with her wine glass out of boredom.

"Hey, I’m back!" Ling Feng said with a big grin as he sat down.

Yun Hanrui gave Ling Feng a cold look, and said with a sarcastic tone, "Oh, you’re back? You were gone so long, I thought you had a prostate problem!"

Ling Feng looked at Yun Hanrui in surprise. Was this the kind of thing that a frosty goddess like Yun Hanrui would say? It was completely mind-blowing!

"Not at all, my prostate is just fine!" Ling Feng said with a forced laugh.

Seeing Ling Feng’s reaction, Yun Hanrui felt even more repulsed. He had come with her but at the first opportunity, he ran off to flirt with the police officer girl. What about a little professionalism?

"Stinky Ling Feng, dead Ling Feng, why don’t you stay with your police girl, why come back at all!" Yun Hanrui thought furiously.

"Oh, Han Rui is here!" A man around fifty spotted Yun Hanrui and walked over, smiling, "When does President Yun have time to give a talk at your alma mater? I’ve invited you so many times."

Yun Hanrui stood up and smiled, "Dean Chen, I was just planning to visit you, I didn’t expect to see you here! I couldn’t get away before because of the laboratory work, I’m sorry!"

Dean Chen said with a smile, "That’s nothing. You are our faculty’s pride. By the way, it’s true that you’re going to give a talk at your alma mater soon, right? Don’t play me, if you do, I might have to go have a word with Old Yun!"

Yun Hanrui blushed slightly and said, "Dean Chen, with such an invitation from my alma mater, it would be too arrogant of me not to accept, wouldn’t it? You set the time for the talk. I will fully cooperate with your arrangements!"

"That’s great!" Dean Chen said cheerily, "In that case, how about the morning of Christmas Eve?"

Yun Hanrui nodded, then said, "Dean Chen, there is a favor I would like to ask."

Looking at Ling Feng, Yun Hanrui continued, "This is my cousin. I would like to arrange a position for him at our school, if that’s convenient for you?"

Dean Chen looked at Ling Feng and then said with a smile, "Well, what position were you thinking of for him?"

"A librarian. I want my cousin to experience the cultural atmosphere of our alma mater," Yun Hanrui said with a smile.

"No problem!"
