Chapter 1087 1063: The Unpromising Situation in Western Europe
Ren Feng took the invitation and glanced at it.
"So it's from the Sima Family. Didn't expect your young master would invite me over. I thought my reputation in Yanjing was that everyone wanted a piece of me."
"How could that be." The servant forced a smile.
"Alright, I'll accept."
"Very well, then we'll await your honored presence."
The man left, and Ren Feng also pushed open the door. Liou Rumei still hadn't come back.
He looked at the invitation again. It said it was a family banquet.
Ren Feng shook his head. People in Yanjing were interesting—whether there was something going on or not, they had to hold a banquet, just like those bloated bureaucratic institutions that have to hold a meeting no matter what.
He tossed the invitation aside. The time was tomorrow night; there was still a whole day.
Seeing that Rumei hadn't returned, Ren Feng started making dinner himself. His cooking wasn't bad either.
By the time dinner was ready, Liou Rumei happened to push the door open and come in. Seeing the neatly arranged small dishes on the table, along with candles and red wine, she couldn't help but be stunned for a moment.
"You're back? Tired?"
Ren Feng walked over from the side and gently helped her take off her coat.
"Hehe, little brother, are you trying to butter big sis up again?" Liou Rumei shot Ren Feng a sultry look, though she was obviously very pleased.
"Rumei, when it comes to you, do I still need to 'butter you up'?"
Ren Feng smiled.
Just that short sentence, combined with her lip-licking motion, and Ren Feng felt she had teased him again.
"Alright then, Rumei, if you're willing, maybe we can try something else."
"Knew it, you little bastard never have any good intentions."
Liou Rumei smiled and sat down on the chair. Ren Feng pulled the chair out for her, then sat down and poured the wine.
"Why are you back so late?"
"Because I thought you'd be spending the night at that little starlet's place, and wouldn't be needing big sis, of course."
Ren Feng couldn't help laughing and crying. "Alright, Rumei, I'm asking seriously."
"Seriously, I'm busy of course. The Liou Family is a huge monster; it's not easy for me to bring it down."
Ren Feng nodded. "It's fine, take it slow. Oh right, I got an invitation from Sima Lang today. There's a family banquet tomorrow night. Do you want to come with me?"
"I won't go. Me going to a place like that would just be asking for boredom, wouldn't it?" Liou Rumei rested her cheek on her hand in a charming pose, looking at Ren Feng. With the red wine in her, she looked even more alluring.
Ren Feng nodded. "Then I'll go by myself. Also, tomorrow night… I have a feeling this banquet won't be simple. No such thing as a 'good' banquet."
"It's fine. Since when have you ever been afraid of anything? Ever since I met you, you've never been scared of anyone."
"I have. I've been scared."
"What have you been scared of?" Liou Rumei giggled.
Ren Feng said seriously, "I've been scared of you."
"Scared of me?" Liou Rumei looked at Ren Feng curiously. "Little brother, you're actually scared of me?"
"Of course. 'The land of tenderness is the grave of heroes'—and you are my land of tenderness."
Liou Rumei burst into tinkling laughter, her body trembling like flowers in the wind. "You really know how to talk."
Seeing Ren Feng very obviously swallow a mouthful of saliva, Liou Rumei rolled her eyes at him. "So, little brother, do you want a reward?"
"I do!"
"Knew it, you little bastard, always having dirty thoughts."
...
The next day, when Ren Feng opened his eyes, Liou Rumei had already gone out. When it came to work, she was even more demanding than Xia Wenxue.
Climbing out of bed, just as Ren Feng was about to get up, his phone rang.
"Feng! Things are looking a bit bad." Chen Fenghuo's tone was extremely grim.
Ren Feng's heart sank at once. "Something happened over in Western Europe?"
"Not yet for the moment, but according to Catherine's intel, several major powers in Western Europe have their eyes on us, and they've been moving a lot. Even some local gangs on our turf are mobilizing their men. I feel something big is coming. Wind God Hall is already on full alert; all our people are pulling back."
Ren Feng's expression grew somewhat solemn. He hadn't expected it to escalate this fast.
"Feng, this time it's really 'the mountain rain is about to come and the wind fills the building.' I can feel that, for Wind God Hall, it's going to be very hard to get through this."
Ren Feng nodded. "I'll head to Western Europe before the end of this week. You guys hold on for now."
"I know. It's just that we've also dug up another piece of bad news."
"What news?"
"The organization is making moves too. It seems to be related to the United Kingdom. In a few days, the princess is coming to Spain for a trip."
"What's that got to do with us?" Ren Feng asked.
"A lot." Chen Fenghuo's tone was extremely serious. "Her travel destination is right within our sphere of influence."
"What?"
Ren Feng was stunned. He could smell the stink of a conspiracy from this.
"We don't have a specific plan yet. For now, all we can do is send people to protect her when the time comes," Chen Fenghuo said.
Ren Feng took a deep breath. It looked like the situation in Western Europe was about to blow up.
"Feng, how are things on your side?"
"I'm in Yanjing right now. The situation is a bit messy too, and I can't get away yet. Once I finish up here, I'll head to Europe immediately—this week at the latest," Ren Feng said.
"Alright, Feng, then make sure you get here as soon as you can when the time comes."
After hanging up, Ren Feng's face was still heavy. He hadn't expected that in just a few days, the other side would make so many moves. It seemed the organization had joined forces with other powers and set a trap for Wind God Hall.
Even so, Ren Feng still couldn't pull himself away right now. The threat from the Liou Family was still there, and in a few days it would be Mo Yuqi's concert.
It seemed he had to first cow the Liou Family into submission before he could safely leave Yanjing. Otherwise, even with Dragon Group's protection, they would eventually make a move on Liou Rumei.
Ren Feng had already made up his mind inside; he needed to find an opening.
After getting up and having breakfast, with nothing else to do, Ren Feng went to watch Mo Yuqi's rehearsal.
He stayed with Mo Yuqi for a day, and after confirming that Su Xin hadn't come to cause trouble again, Ren Feng left.
Time quickly approached seven in the evening. Ren Feng headed to the place written on Sima Lang's invitation.
Though Sima Lang called it a family banquet, the scale of this "family banquet" was even higher than that night at the Emperor Heaven Hotel.
It was set in a very famous manor in the northern part of Yanjing.
When he arrived at the entrance, Ren Feng found that several of Yanjing's young masters were already there chatting. The moment they saw him, they all turned to look his way.
"Isn't that the Ren Feng from the other night?"
"It really is him. What's he doing here?"
