Simultaneous Transmigration: From Douluo Continent to the Pinnacle

Chapter 43 Hong Kong Student, Wang Fengyi

Hong Kong variety shows.

Under the neon-lit night sky of Hong Kong Island, the chairman's office on the top floor of the Star Tower, located in the heart of the Tsim Sha Tsui business district, offers a stunning view of Victoria Harbour through its floor-to-ceiling windows.

The dazzling lights, shining through the huge glass curtain wall, cast dappled shadows on the mirror-like marble floor.

Lin Yao slowly opened his eyes, his fingertips twitching slightly as he felt the surging power within him coming from the superposition of the power of "himself" from six parallel worlds.

Lin Yao smiled with satisfaction at the feeling of winning without lifting a finger.

However, he deliberately suppressed the leakage of his power, simply because there were outsiders standing in front of his desk.

A lawyer in a tailor-made black suit is carefully putting away the signed employment contract.

Fine beads of sweat glistened on the man's forehead as his gaze swept over Lin Yao.

To Lin Yao, a man who was ostensibly the head of the Hung Hing triad but controlled several completely legal and massive financial chains, exuding an aura of intimidation, the tone became increasingly obsequious: "Mr. Lin, rest assured! From now on, no matter what legal problems you encounter, or even the compliance review of triad affairs, I can handle them flawlessly for you!"

"I naturally trust the lawyer's expertise."

Lin Yao stood up, extended his hand and lightly shook hands with the lawyer, the pressure from his fingertips carrying an undeniable sense of authority.

"I'll be troubling you from now on."

As soon as he finished speaking, he turned his head to look behind him.

The beautiful secretary, dressed in a champagne-colored tight-fitting bodycon dress, was massaging his shoulders and neck with her head bowed, her long, black hair falling smoothly over her fair neck.

"Hong Kong student, take the lawyer downstairs and invite Mr. Li in while you're at it."

"Yes, boss."

Hong Kong student looked up in response, her delicate features appearing even more radiant under the warm yellow light. She slightly bent her knees, the hem of her skirt outlining her graceful curves.

As she rose, her long legs, encased in black stockings, moved with an elegant curve. She gestured with her hand, indicating "please," and said in a soft yet decisive voice, "Mr. Lawyer, this way please."

Gang Sheng is the female lead in the movie "Righteousness Over the Clouds". However, her fate had already been rewritten when she met Lin Yao.

Originally, she was a girl with a tragic fate.

Born in Hong Kong Island, but due to a hospital oversight, she was unable to obtain a birth certificate and lived with her mother in mainland China from a young age.

On her deathbed, her mother trembled as she handed her a faded old photograph, urging her to go to Hong Kong Island to stay with her aunt.

But as soon as she stepped onto the Hong Kong Island pier, she was targeted by a greedy smuggler. Fortunately, she met Lin Yao, which led to a change in her life.

Lin Yao also found all the people who caused his tragic fate in the original work.

On a stormy night, the smuggler and his uncle were submerged in cement and sunk into Victoria Harbour.

Hong Kong students, under Lin Yao's tutelage, underwent a complete transformation.

Not only did he learn business etiquette and financial management, but he also practiced basic combat skills under Lin Yao's arrangement.

The timidity that once lingered in his eyes has long since faded, replaced by composure and competence.

At this moment, she exuded the charm of a career woman in every gesture, but the look in her eyes when she looked at Lin Yao still carried a hint of dependence that was hard to detect.

"Knock knock knock—"

—"

A crisp knock on the door interrupted my thoughts, and Gang Sheng walked in with a dark-skinned young man wearing a gray jacket.

The young man had dark skin and an ordinary appearance, but his eyes were shrewd. He was Li Jiayuan, nicknamed "Jimmy," the male lead in "Harmony is Precious."

"Hello Mr. Lin, I am Li Jiayuan."

Jimmy walked into the office, his eyes quickly scanning the luxurious interior decor.

After a slight pause, Lin Yao stepped forward and respectfully shook hands with the Italian leather sofa, the German-made desk, and the famous oil paintings hanging on the wall.

"Mr. Li, there's no need for such formalities. Please have a seat."

Lin Yao pointed to the sofa opposite him, his tone indifferent.

When Jimmy sat down, his back was slightly tense.

Unlike other gangsters, he joined Wo Luen Shing not to fight and kill his way to the top, but to protect his business.

Hong Kong Island is plagued by disorder, and idle triad members can be seen everywhere on the streets.

Ordinary businessmen without gang connections may face anything from daily harassment to having their shops vandalized and goods stolen.

He gritted his teeth and joined Wo Luen Shing in order to keep the business afloat.

Over the years, using the name of Wo Luen Shing, his business has grown bigger and bigger, but he has long harbored the idea of ​​"laundering" his business.

He quietly moved most of his business to the mainland, attempting to sever ties with the triads, but Director Shi on the mainland presented him with a difficult problem.

Unless he can become the head of Wo Luen Shing, he can forget about gaining a foothold in the mainland market.

Therefore, I greatly admire Lin Yao's ability to steadily develop as a member of the club.

"Mr. Li, I have never liked beating around the bush."

Lin Yao picked up the Pu'er tea on the table, the rising steam blurring his expression.

"I am optimistic about the development prospects of the mainland and want to set up a business there. I heard that you have many connections in the mainland, so I would like to partner with you."

"Furthermore, I know you're vying for the position of head of Wo Shing Wo. To show my sincerity, I can do everything I can to help you get that position. What do you say?"

Jimmy's fingers curled slightly, and he remained silent for a moment.

While waiting in the reception hall, I had already noticed the security guards from Xingchen Security Company.

They all stood with upright postures, sharp eyes, and bulging waists, clearly veterans who had experienced the battlefield.

Lin Yao's ability to recruit such people speaks volumes about his financial resources and connections. What he needs most right now is assistance, and Lin Yao's suggestion is exactly what he's been hoping for.

"Mr. Lin, it's a pleasure doing business with you!"

Jimmy stretched out his hand, a resolute glint in his eyes.

After reaching an agreement, Lin Yao immediately made a phone call: "Wang Jianjun, take your team to help Mr. Li handle the matter with Wo Luen Shing. Remember, be efficient and clean."

A deep voice replied from the other end of the phone: "Understood, boss."

Wang Jianjun was the most "special" person under Lin Yao. Compared to Li Jie and Li Fu's bottom line, his bottom line was incredibly low.

As long as the money is right, he wouldn't even flinch if he were to storm into the police station with a knife.

For this reason, Lin Yao assigned him to an independent security team, specifically to handle those "shady" matters.

At this moment, three people in Wo Luen Shing are qualified to compete for the leadership position: Jimmy, Tung Tung, and Lok Siu.

Jimmy is a businessman, but he lacks capable fighters. In the original story, he hired "Money Guy" at a high price to deal with the other two.

But now, with Wang Jianjun's team, Jia Qian Ge is no longer needed. These people who came from the battlefield are ten times more ruthless than Jia Qian Ge.

Several days later, Stanley Prison.

The air conditioning in the warden's office was blasting.

Lin Yao sat on the sofa, looking at the man in prison clothes in front of him.

Xiahou Wu, a former disciple of the He Yi Men martial arts school in Foshan, was hired as a martial arts instructor for the Hong Kong police force six months ago. However, he accidentally killed his opponent in a fight and was sentenced to prison.

Xiahou Wu was tall and upright, and even in prison clothes, he could not hide his sharp spirit. He was the male protagonist of a martial arts novel.

Not only was he highly skilled in martial arts, but he was also adept at teaching others. In the original story, Feng Yuxiu became a top master after three years of self-study based solely on the notes he left behind.

Even though Feng Ganxiu was very talented, his teaching ability was also evident.

"Mr. Xiahou."

Lin Yao got straight to the point.

"I know you have a junior sister waiting for you outside. As long as you're willing to join Star Security Company as an instructor and teach my people your martial arts without reservation, I can let you out immediately."

A flicker of emotion crossed Xiahou Wu's eyes as his junior sister's smiling face flashed through his mind. He paused for a moment, then nodded emphatically: "Alright, I promise you."

Lin Yao immediately contacted a lawyer, and after some "manipulation," Xiahou Wu was released from prison on "medical parole."

That same day, he changed into the instructor's uniform from Xingchen Security Company and began training the veterans.

"Breaking news! An explosion occurred at the Galaxy Shopping Mall of the Real Estate Group half an hour ago. Thick smoke billowed from the scene, suspected to be a terrorist attack. Police have cordoned off the area."

Lin Yao was leaning back on the sofa, continuing to familiarize himself with the surging power within his body, when a news report suddenly popped up on the TV and made his eyes narrow.

The Galaxy Mall bombing is the plot of Police Story 2.

Now that the second part of the story has begun, the third part is not far behind—that's a windfall of 330 million US dollars, which Lin Yao naturally won't miss.

But the bombing also reminded Lin Yao that, not to mention anything else, the world of Hong Kong variety shows is far more dangerous than he imagined, especially with all kinds of modern technology.

Even with Li Jie watching over them, caution is still necessary.

While Lin Yao's current strength is enough to withstand ordinary bullets, he would still be in danger if he encountered a weapon of mass destruction with a wide coverage area.

"We still need to play it safe and develop stealthily."

On a dark and windy night, the waves crashed against the rocks with a dull thud.

In a secluded area of ​​water at the southwest corner of Hong Kong Island, two speedboats quietly approached each other under the cover of night.

The people on the speedboat were all wearing black raincoats and face masks, and they were quickly carrying heavy wooden crates full of smuggled weapons.

The transaction was completed quickly, and the two speedboats departed separately, their engine sounds soon fading into the night.

One of the speedboats circled around for a long time before finally stopping at a deserted beach.

The leader of the men in black was the first to jump off the boat. The rain soaked his raincoat, outlining his muscular physique.

He waved behind him, and his men immediately carried the wooden crates ashore and moved them to a secret underground room in a nearby warehouse.

After all the weapons were in place, the man in black removed his hood, revealing himself to be Wang Jianjun.

He took out his phone and dialed Lin Yao's number: "Boss, it's done."

"Hmm, well done."

Lin Yao's voice came through the receiver, and there seemed to be soft laughter in the background.

"Tell the brothers that everyone will receive triple their bonus as a reward for their hard work."

"Thank you, boss!"

Wang Jianjun's eyes lit up, and he quickly thanked him.

After hanging up the phone, Wang Jianjun looked at the weapons in the secret room and a sinister smile crept onto his lips.

The other party in this transaction was He Shichang, a confidant of Dong Shu, the head of the Quanxing Society.

Quanxing Society is a second-rate organization with thousands of members.

In recent years, Uncle Dong has been trying to legitimize the triad and has gradually stopped its shady businesses, which has angered many of the gang leaders.

Not long ago, Uncle Dong was imprisoned, and the power of the gang fell into the hands of his daughter, Wang Fengyi.

However, Wang Fengyi was a pampered young lady who had never been involved in gang affairs. As soon as she took office, she announced a complete ban on all shady businesses.

This completely offended those leaders who made their living through shady means. They outwardly complied, but inwardly they had long been secretly defying them.

"The people below want to rise to the top, but unfortunately, the boss has now interfered."

Wang Jianjun had some understanding of the intricacies involved, sneered, and turned to lock the door to the secret room.

Meanwhile, Lin Yao was quite interested in Wang Fengyi's innocent and pitiful appearance.

"It's a good opportunity to help her out; besides, it's a win-win situation."

Lin Yao smiled, picked up the red wine on the table, and handed a glass to Gang Sheng next to him.

Office of the head of the anti-triad unit in Tsim Sha Tsui.

Lu Jianda rubbed his throbbing temples, a stack of Quanxing Society documents spread out in front of him, but he couldn't read a single word.

More than half a month ago, he personally arrested and imprisoned Uncle Dong. When his girlfriend Wang Fengyi found out, she had a big fight with him on the spot, and their relationship dropped to a freezing point.

What troubled him even more was that after Wang Fengyi took over the Quanxing Society, his situation at the police station became extremely awkward. His colleagues suspected that he would abuse his power, and his superiors even called him in for a reprimand, ordering him to either break up with Wang Fengyi or apply for a transfer.

"On one hand, there's my future; on the other, my girlfriend—"

Lu Jianda scratched his hair in frustration, caught in a dilemma.

"Knock knock knock————"

A knock sounded at the door, and a beautiful policewoman in uniform walked in, handing over a letter: "Team leader, we'd like to receive an anonymous letter from you."

Lu Jianda opened the letter, and his face grew increasingly grim as he read it.

The letter detailed He Shichang's arms smuggling activities. Although there was no substantial evidence, the report was detailed and convincing, and it was clearly not fabricated out of thin air.

"Wang Fengyi!"

He jumped to his feet, dialed his girlfriend's number, and said with suppressed anger, "You're coming to my office right now!"

Half an hour later, Wang Fengyi, wearing a white dress, stormed into the office. "Lü Jianda, what's wrong with you?"

"Why are you getting angry?"

Lu Jianda slammed the whistleblower letter on the table. "Look at this! He Shichang is smuggling arms. How can you be the head of a triad? Either give up on the Quanxing Society immediately, or keep your men in line! Don't make things difficult for me!"

Reprimanded in public, Wang Fengyi's eyes reddened, but she stubbornly bit her lip: "I'll handle it!"

After saying that, she turned and left, heading straight for Jinxing International Company, a subsidiary of Quanxing Society, where He Shichang's office was located.

Meanwhile, in the conference room of Jinxing International Company.

Wearing a sharp suit, He Shichang looked at Lin Yao across from him with a big smile: "Mr. Lin, you have also investigated Jinxing International. This company was built by Uncle Dong and is valued at 30 million Hong Kong dollars, but there is still a lot of room for appreciation. You are willing to pay 50 million to acquire it in full, which must be because you see this aspect."

Lin Yao held his coffee and stirred it slowly: "Manager He, I have plenty of money, but I'm very busy."

Upon hearing this, He Shichang cursed inwardly as a sucker. What was this young man, this guy who'd been helped up by some bigwig, acting all high and mighty?!

However, selling a company worth 30 million for 50 million would give him enough money to buy more weapons, and he would soon have a cash flow of over 100 million.

At that time, he will be able to step out of high society and earn a sum of money that Jinxing Group could not earn in twenty years, even if they worked their hardest.

It's fair to say that Jinxing International's business is insignificant compared to its arms smuggling operations.

"Mr. Lin, rest assured, I guarantee all the formalities will be completed within three days!"

He Shichang patted his chest and guaranteed it.

"Knock knock knock————"

A rapid knocking sounded suddenly, and Secretary Aida strode in and whispered a few words in He Shichang's ear.

He Shichang's expression changed drastically as Wang Fengyi burst into his office and began rummaging through drawers and cabinets.

"Mr. Lin, I'm so sorry, I have some personal matters to attend to. Please wait a moment."

He Shichang stood up and instructed Aida, "Pour Mr. Lin a fresh cup of coffee and treat him well."

After saying that, He Shichang left in a hurry without waiting for Lin Yao's reaction.

Lin Yao didn't take it to heart. Looking at his somewhat disheveled back, a playful smile appeared on his lips.

That letter of denunciation was precisely what Lin Yao had sent to Lü Jianda—to force Lü Jianda to turn against Wang Fengyi and accelerate the development of He Shichang's desires.

As for acquiring companies, it's merely to conceal their true intentions and to create opportunities for interference.

Otherwise, it would be too conspicuous for the dignified leader of the Hung Hing Causeway Bay branch to go to another triad.

Meanwhile, in He Shichang's office, Wang Fengyi was bending over and flipping through a filing cabinet.

The red miniskirt was pulled up by the movement, outlining its rounded curves, and the long legs encased in black stockings were particularly eye-catching.

At this moment, Wang Fengyi held a stack of photos in her hand, all of which showed He Shichang making deals with arms dealers, and she was so angry that she was trembling all over.

"Young Miss, what are you looking for?"

He Shichang quietly closed the door and locked it, his voice carrying a hint of malice.

Wang Fengyi whirled around and slammed the photo on the table: "He Shichang! How dare you smuggle arms behind my back!"

"Knowing it from you?"

He Shichang sneered and approached step by step.

"Ever since you stopped all your shady businesses, which of those bosses hasn't been complaining? Without money, how are we supposed to survive? My arms smuggling was to help you keep the gang afloat."

As he was speaking, he suddenly reached out and grabbed Wang Fengyi's wrist, pulling her forcefully and pushing her down onto the sofa.

"Besides, Miss, I've liked you for a long time, ever since the first time I saw you."

"Let me go! Help! Help me!"

Completely unprepared for the turn of events, Wang Fengyi struggled desperately, but He Shichang held her down firmly, and tears welled up in her eyes instantly.

"Go ahead and scream, even if you scream your lungs out, no one will come to save you. My men are everywhere outside. Just submit to me, young lady—"

He Shichang grinned maliciously and reached out to tear off her skirt.

"Bang!"

Just then, the office door was kicked open, sending splinters flying.

Li Jie and Li Fu rushed in instantly, pulled He Shichang away, pinned him against the wall, and rained down punches on him.

Lin Yao walked in, took off his custom-made suit, and gently draped it over Wang Fengyi.

Her skirt was torn, revealing a small patch of fair skin. "Miss Fengyi, are you alright?"

Amidst the ups and downs, Wang Fengyi looked up and saw the gentle gaze of Lin Yao, a stranger with a handsome face. The arrest of her father, the misunderstanding from her boyfriend, the betrayal from her subordinates—all these events caused her inner strength to crumble instantly. She threw herself into his arms and burst into tears, sobbing loudly: "Waaah—"

"————"

Lin Yao didn't say anything to this. He gently patted her back and gave Li Jie a cold wink.

Li Jie understood and gestured to Li Fu to gag He Shichang. He then pulled out a dagger, and with a flash of cold light, He Shichang let out a whimper and fainted.

His little brother was crippled, which was terrifying for a man; the pain was enough to knock any man unconscious.

Seeing this, Lin Yao remained unmoved, took out his phone, and dialed the police: "Hello, is this the police? There has been an attack at Jinxing International Company. The suspect has been apprehended. Please come immediately."

Not long after, Lü Jianda rushed over.

Seeing that Wang Fengyi was alright, he breathed a sigh of relief, then frowned again. Seeing Lin Yao's suit on her, his tone became even more displeased: "Fengyi, how many times have I told you to stay away from these gangsters!"

"Lü Jianda!"

Wang Fengyi pushed him away abruptly, her eyes filled with disappointment.

"I was almost bullied, and he saved me. Instead of thanking me, you're blaming me? We're finished!"

Lu Jianda was stunned, then sneered: "So what if it's over? I've had enough of being pointed at and talked about by my colleagues because of you."

After saying that, he turned and left without looking back.

It wasn't just because she wanted to cut ties as soon as possible, but also because Wang Fengyi was a rather traditional woman who rarely held hands in daily life, preferring to wait until marriage, let alone any intimacy between lovers.

Watching Lü Jianda's retreating figure, Wang Fengyi cried even harder. Lin Yao gently patted her back. Everything was going as he had expected. As night fell, Lin Yao accompanied Wang Fengyi back to her villa.

In the living room, wine bottles were scattered all over the floor. Wang Fengyi's cheeks were flushed and her eyes were glazed; she was clearly drunk.

Actually, it's not the wine that makes people drunk, it's the people themselves. The experiences he's had recently had a huge impact on him, and some of his inner convictions have begun to waver.

"Mr. Lin, thank you—I really don't know what I would have done without you—"

"Miss Fengyi, you can just call me Lin Yao."

Lin Yao supported her, his tone gentle.

"Don't think about those unhappy things."

"Lin Yao, you can call me Fengyi, and also—"

Wang Fengyi raised her head, looked into Lin Yao's clear eyes, and felt an impulse well up in her heart. Suddenly, she stood on tiptoe and kissed him.

Seeing this, a hint of surprise flashed in Lin Yao's eyes. "That was a bit too fast, wasn't it?"

However, Lin Yao didn't have any physical problems, and since it wouldn't hurt to hurry, he didn't push Wang Fengyi away. Instead, he picked her up by the waist and carried her towards the bedroom.

Everything fell into place naturally.
