President Sun never imagined that after a lifetime of hunting eagles, he would end up being pecked in the eye by one.

He could hardly believe that such a plot, which only existed in movies and television, would actually happen to him.

What's even more outrageous is that while others might be photographed sleeping with women, he was photographed with men.

"Was this planned from the beginning?" Sun Gang knew he had indeed been tricked, but he still couldn't help wanting to know the truth.

"No, it was a spur-of-the-moment idea," Gu Feng said calmly. "If you guys weren't so cunning, I wouldn't have come up with this plan either."

Sun Gang: "..."

"Given my old temper, I would never let this go easily. If you dare to touch my woman, I'll kill you. At the very least, I'll cripple you. But since you like playing dirty tricks, I guess I'll just have to play along." Gu Feng said, then abruptly changed the subject, actually shouting rudely towards the kitchen, "Hey, tell your woman to get moving and cook. I haven't eaten yet."

Bank Manager Sun sneered, "Coming here to drink my wine is one thing, but you also want to eat my food? Do you really think this place is your home?"

Gu Feng didn't get angry; instead, he laughed: "If I said I would still dare to sleep with your woman, would you believe me?"

Sun Gang: "..."

Gu Feng laughed even more unrestrainedly: "Hehe, while you and Director Zhao were busy last night, I had plenty of opportunities to come in. The reason I didn't make a move wasn't because I was afraid, but because I didn't think much of it. The kind of person you treasure, I wouldn't even bother to glance at."

Sun Gang's face turned pale and then red, and in the end he could only resign himself to his fate, calling his mistress out and asking her to cook.

"Hey Gu, what exactly do you want?" Sun Gang had seen villains before, but never one this wicked. Not only did they barge into his house, but they also acted like they owned the place.

"First of all, the loan was approved."

"No problem," Sun Gang agreed readily, "but you have to give me the negatives."

"You think you have room to bargain?" Gu Feng sneered.

"I……"

"President Sun, get this straight. I'm not discussing this with you, I'm informing you. Approving the loan is only one aspect. Besides, I don't necessarily need to take out this loan. But if this scandal gets out, neither you nor that guy surnamed Zhao will be able to recover."

"No! No! I'll do it, I'll do it all!" Sun Gang was sweating profusely and nodded vigorously.

Gu Feng nodded in satisfaction, but didn't mention any other conditions. He was the kind of person who naturally possessed an aura; the moment he sat down, he was the protagonist, firmly controlling the entire situation. Even a seasoned veteran like Sun Gang couldn't withstand that.

"Do you...do you have any other conditions?" Sun Gang couldn't hold back any longer.

"Yes," Gu Feng thought for a moment, "but I haven't decided yet."

Sun Gang was on the verge of tears. "You haven't even thought of any terms, what kind of extortion are you trying to pull?"

When it was time to eat, neither Sun Gang nor his wife Lin Lina had any appetite. Only Gu Feng ate with gusto.

It took Gu Feng a full twenty minutes to put down his chopsticks, wipe his mouth with a napkin, and say, "No wonder people say other people's food is so delicious; I ate quite a lot today."

Three bowls of rice, two bowls of soup, and more than half of the vegetables were gone. For Sun Gang, this was already considered overeating. He and Lin Lina barely touched their food, watching Gu Feng's monologue the whole time.

"Aren't you afraid I'll poison your food?" Sun Gang sneered. He hated Gu Feng's youth, and even more so, his good appetite. He had lost both of those qualities long ago.

"Director Sun, you're old and shrewd. I don't believe you're that stupid. If I die, you'll benefit nothing. On the contrary, if I'm gone, your little affair with Director Zhao will be on public display worldwide immediately." Gu Feng said, laughing to himself, "So, only if I live can you live. Speaking of which... I'm suddenly getting a little impulsive."

Sun Gang and Lin Lina both turned pale. Having eaten and drunk their fill, could this old man really be thinking of…?

Seeing their reaction, Gu Feng laughed heartily: "What are you thinking? I mean, I nominally have thousands or even tens of thousands of men under me, but I haven't personally recruited a single one. Sun Gang, you may be a bit old, but you have power. How about this, you'll work for me from now on."

Sun Gang's face froze. This lawless guy actually wanted to take him as a lackey? It was truly laughable and infuriating.

"Alright, Sun Gang. We've had our drinks and dinner, I have to go. Get on with the things I'm telling you." Gu Feng's tone was calm, as if Sun Gang had truly been with him for years.

"Wait a minute!" Sun Gang said urgently, "Have you spoken to Director Zhao yet?"

"Not yet," Gu Feng shook his head. "I was just about to go."

"I... could you please not look for him for now? At least, not for the time being." Sun Gang's voice lowered.

"Heh, Sun Gang, you've learned your lesson. You said 'ask,' not 'demand.' Fine, give me a reason. If it sways me, I'll leave him alone for now. But—" Gu Feng shook his finger, "Don't try to fool me with some chivalrous code."

"I need him to do me a favor right now. He can't afford to get into trouble right now," Sun Gang confessed honestly.

Gu Feng knew exactly what was going on. The old fox hadn't dared to try anything funny, but he hadn't let his guard down either. Taming this old fox was far more difficult than crushing him.

"You're currying favor with him because you want something from him, right? I guessed that. Otherwise, why would a high-ranking bank president bother sucking up to a mere deputy director? But this guy surnamed Zhao is really blind, daring to set his sights on my woman. Letting him go is out of the question. But now that you're with me and have made your first request, I have to give you some face. So, how many days will it take to get it done?"

"Three days! Three days is enough."

"Okay, I understand." Gu Feng nodded, got up and left without looking back.

The roar of the sports car gradually faded into the distance. Sun Gang wiped away his cold sweat and quickly pulled out his phone to dial: "Captain Chen? This is Manager Sun. Help me check the license plate. It's from Shenzhen, PK888."

Not long after, the call came back.

"Sun Xing, is that Spyker C8 you're talking about?"

"A two-seater sports car, silver-gray, with doors that open upwards, quite an odd design. The logo is an oval with a horizontal bar inside that extends outwards like a mustache. Captain Chen, you know I'm not particular about cars, so I can't recall the brand."

"According to you, it should be a Spyker C8. The vehicle registration information shows that this car belongs to the Ding family."

"The Ding family? Which Ding family?"

"Sun Xing, how many Ding families are there in Shenzhen?"

"You mean... Ding Lisheng, that gangster?"

"Hmm. What's wrong, Sun Xing? Did you mess with them? These people are not to be trifled with; you should know that better than I do."

"No, no. Just asking. Thanks, Captain Chen."

"It's nothing. Just let me know if you need anything."

"I'll treat you to drinks another day."

After hanging up the phone, Sun Gang slumped onto the sofa, unable to recover for a long time. He had thought the person who came to his door was just a hothead, but he never expected it to be someone from the Ding family.

"The Ding family of Shenzhen is practically the face of the underworld. Getting involved with them means endless trouble," Sun Gang sighed. He'd dismissed the guy's boasting about having thousands, even tens of thousands of men as bragging. But now, with the license plate information on display, he realized he'd really bitten off more than he could chew.

"What should we do?" Lin Lina panicked.

"What else can we do?" Sun Gang slumped there, as if his bones had been removed. "We can only see what they want to do."
