Chapter 672: Chapter 672: Treat with Courtesy
Ling Feng stared at Inoue Sakura, and Inoue Sakura looked back into Ling Fengâs eyes without the slightest retreat.
Ling Feng released his grip and faintly smiled, "Interesting, if I donât agree, you wonât let it go, right?"
Inoue Sakura seriously responded, "I will keep bothering you unless you kill me; otherwise, I will not give up!"
"Why choose me? Or rather, why do you think I can help you?" Ling Feng asked.
A bitter expression appeared on Inoue Sakuraâs face: "Because... because I have no other choice now!"
Ling Feng glanced at Haruko, then at Inoue Sakura, and smilingly said, "Indeed, you have no other choices now! Fine, since I am free anyway, Iâll accept your request! But before that, should you not have an honest discussion first?"
Just as Inoue Sakura was about to say something, the door to the cabin opened, and Third Brother walked in with a group of people.
"Good lad, I didnât expect you to be the deepest hidden one!" Third Brother stared intently at Ling Feng, "Who exactly are you? Are you sent by the superiors to capture us?"
Ling Feng chuckled, "Capture you? You are too full of yourselves. If the people from above wanted to capture you, do you think you could escape? Rest assured, I just want to go to Fusang, and I have no interest in you!"
Third Brother looked into Ling Fengâs eyes, and from them, he saw no panic, only calmness.
"Does he have no fear of us at all?" Third Brother narrowed his eyes.
In this line of work, they were all people walking on the edge of a knife; they werenât afraid to die, but they didnât wish to die either.
"You, kid, keep it real!" Meanwhile, a man next to him pulled out a handgun and aimed it at Ling Feng, shouting.
In his eyes, being aimed at by a handgun meant Ling Feng had only one way out: to surrender!
Ling Fengâs eyes narrowed, and his right hand swung, sending a silver flash flying.
With a loud bang, the handgun in the manâs hand exploded, and subsequently, a ten-cent coin fell to the ground.
Breaking a handgun with a ten-cent coin? Third Brother was shocked, thinking that even the War King couldnât have such ability!
At this moment, Third Brother truly let down his guard because using such a skilled person to catch them would indeed be like using a cannon to kill a mosquito.
"How dare you! Who allowed you to pull out a gun?" Third Brother shouted, then turned to Ling Feng with a smile, "Mr. Lin, I am sorry. My subordinates are undisciplined; my apologies!"
Ling Feng looked deeply at Third Brother; this man was indeed something, able to yield and adapt as necessary.
"No matter!" Ling Feng said faintly, "I am not so petty as to argue with a mere thug."
Third Brother laughed heartily, "Exactly, Mr. Lin, itâs true that we donât meet without a fight. Come on, letâs go up and have a drink; the smell here is indeed a bit unpleasant."
Ling Feng smiled faintly and stretched out his hand towards the mother and daughter, saying, "They are with me!"
Third Brother glanced at the girl and gave a look that said âI understand,â then said, "Thatâs easy to handle, letâs all go up together. The boat may be small, but it will surely not neglect Mr. Lin!"
Ling Feng left with the Fusang people, and he gave no indication to take care of Sun Jun.
Although Ling Feng thought Sun Jun was a strong man, he also realized that Sun Jun was no good either; such people, he did not like.
"Tiezhu, come and pay your respects to Mr. Lin!" Third Brother came up with his men, speaking to Tiezhu beside him, "If Mr. Lin hadnât shown mercy just now, youâd already be lying in the sea feeding the sharks!"
Tiezhu said in a deep voice, "Mr. Lin, just now Tiezhu was blind to Mount Tai and caused great offense!"
Ling Feng was very strong, and Tiezhu saw nothing wrong in showing submission to such a powerhouse.
"Mr. Lin, Iâve prepared some food. Shall we have a drink?" Third Brother asked with a smile.
Ling Feng shook his head, "Forget it, Iâm already very tired from being below, I want to rest early. Could you prepare a room for us, Third Brother?"
Showing some regret, Third Brother replied, "In that case, I wonât insist on keeping you. Once Mr. Lin has rested well, letâs drink to our heartâs content, how about that?"
"Thatâs an honor I canât refuse!" Ling Feng said with a smile.
At Third Brotherâs command, one of the crew members led Ling Feng and two others to a room. Although the room was small, it was clean, importantly devoid of any unpleasant odors, and even had a bathroom.
"Mr. Lin, why only one room?" Haruko couldnât help stepping forward, "And thereâs only one bed, this..."
Ling Feng laid down on the bed directly, looking at Haruko disdainfully, "First off, youâre here because of me, you got out of the shipâs hold. So, know your place. If you annoy me, do you believe I can send you back to the hold?"
"You..." Haruko was about to say something but was held back and silenced by Inoue Sakura shaking her head.
"Brother Lin, Iâm sorry!" Inoue Sakura bowed deeply and said, "Auntie Qingzi is just too worried about me, I apologize to Brother Lin on her behalf!"
Even though Ling Feng didnât like the Fusang people, Inoue Sakura had apologized so sensibly, and naturally, he wouldnât hold a grudge.
"Fine, I wonât hold it against her," Ling Feng said indifferently. "Youâre lucky to have such a fool for an aunt, and yet you managed to board the ship successfully, truly a fortunate event in life!"
Harukoâs face flushed in anger as she glared at the irritating young man.
"The captain gave me face because he thought you were my women!" Ling Feng said coolly, "Moreover, staying together allows me to protect you more conveniently, doesnât it?"
Inoue Sakura let out a sigh of relief, joyfully saying, "I knew it had to be like that, thank you so much, Brother Lin!"
After speaking, Inoue Sakura looked at the bathroom, her expression showing interest, "Brother Lin, would you like to take a bath?"
Ling Feng shook his head, "I donât need to, but if you want to, go ahead."
Given Ling Fengâs strength, if he wished, not even the dust or smoke in the surroundings could settle on him.
"Thatâs great!" Inoue Sakura happily darted into the bathroom, and soon the sound of water hitting the floor could be heard.
"Sheâs quite a bold girl!" Ling Feng knew well that Inoue Sakuraâs action was a way to show, to him, her complete trust and transparency.
But Haruko watched Ling Feng warily, as if he could transform into a beast and charge into the bathroom at any moment.
"Let me tell you, though we are a bit destitute now, we are members of the Inoue family!" Haruko spoke seriously, "You just need to protect us well, and we will definitely pay you a large sum! But if you have other ideas..."
Ling Feng waved his hand dismissively, "Old woman, although you are much older than Inoue Sakura, you are far inferior to her! Donât forget, this isnât Inoue Family territory, so keep your arrogance in check, or the deal is off at any time!"
