At this moment, the shop door was pushed open again.
"Boss, we've come to get our free coffee!"
Sun Yuqing arrived at the store before her voice could even reach her.
He was clearly taken aback when he saw that there was already a customer in Chen Feng's shop. After realizing what was happening, he casually walked up to Chen Feng.
"Wow, boss, you're open for business today? I'm not trying to be mean, but your prices are outrageous! If I weren't rich, I wouldn't dare come here."
Why don't you lower the price a little? With your skills, it'll definitely sell out! Don't you think so, Sisi?
Rosie behind him nodded in agreement.
Chen Feng smiled and said, "I'm not short of money. I opened a coffee shop purely to kill time when I'm bored."
As they were talking, Chen Feng had already prepared the latte Lin Qingyao had ordered, placed it on a tray, and brought it to Lin Qingyao.
Please enjoy your meal.
Sun Yuqing and the other person also sat down at the table next to Lin Qingyao.
"Boss, we'll both have half-sweet mochas."
"Okay, just a moment," Chen Feng replied with a smile.
Just then, the public television in the cafe turned on:
"Here's a breaking news report: the white jade mask stolen by Chen Feng, a contestant from China Region 3, on the day of the Mask Festival has been found at the Sunshine Orphanage in the west of the city."
This impoverished orphanage has thus gained social attention and received over 500 million yuan in donations in a short period of time. The orphanage also expressed its gratitude to Chen Feng.
In addition, just yesterday, with the help of enthusiastic citizens, the eighth 'fugitive' from Huaxia District 3 was arrested, leaving only two participants from Huaxia District 3..."
Chapter 29: A Challenge to Chen Feng
"Huh? Only two of the ten contestants in Zone 3 are left? That was fast."
Rosie rested her chin on her hand and said with some surprise.
Sun Yuqing waved her hand dismissively.
"It's perfectly normal. There are surveillance cameras everywhere now, so there's no way to hide. Do you think everyone is as good as Kidd? That he can just run away whenever he wants?"
"In my opinion, the other contestant is about done for too. Who knows, he's probably scavenging for food next to some trash can right now."
Clang!
The crisp sound of the coffee cup hitting the table immediately drew the attention of Sun Yuqing and the other person.
"Sorry, my hand slipped."
Lin Qingyao forced a smile.
Inwardly, however, he was already cursing, wondering what he meant by "the other contestant is about the same" and what he meant by "who knows, maybe he'll be looking for food next to some trash can."
I'm sitting right here, perfectly fine!
Lin Qingyao was screaming inwardly, but on the surface she could only appear calm and suppress her anger with sips of coffee.
It's all that Kid's fault! One day I'll defeat him with my own hands!
Lin Qingyao thought to herself.
He then finished his coffee in a few gulps, picked up his bag, and left the store.
……
at the same time.
The meeting room of the pursuit department was deathly silent.
Wei Jingyang sat in the main seat of the conference room with a dark face. The old captain Sun Luo, the two new captains Su Luoxue and Zheng Qiang, as well as Huangfuzhen, Lu Yi and a dozen other team members sat upright in their seats.
As they listened to the news broadcast, the veteran members of the pursuit team all turned their attention to Wei Jingyang, who was sitting in the main seat.
The mockery in his eyes was self-evident.
Weren't you confident? Weren't you capable? Weren't you mocking us for not being able to catch people? And now? Why are you silent?
Although Chen Feng stole the items right under their noses again, the group had never felt so comfortable.
Hmm... actually, I'm quite grateful to Chen Feng...
The veteran members of the pursuit team thought to themselves.
Seemingly unable to bear the atmosphere any longer, Wei Jingyang slammed his hand on the table and stood up.
"Gentlemen, let's summarize the failure of this operation."
As soon as these words were spoken, someone below immediately muttered, "Does it even need a summary? You devised everything from the actions to the overall plan, and now you want to blame us? Why didn't you do this earlier?"
The murmurs weren't loud, but they were exceptionally clear in the already small conference room.
"Who! Who's talking nonsense! Don't they know what it means to respect their superiors?"
Wei Jingyang flew into a rage, and due to his superior status, everyone who had originally intended to make a few jokes shut their mouths.
Just as the meeting room fell silent again, a bell rang.
Ring ring, ring ring—
The irritating ringtone further enraged the already irritated team leader: "Whose phone is ringing? Don't you know you have to silence your phone during a meeting?!"
Ring ring—
Even with Wei Jingyang's furious voice, no one turned off the ringer.
Just as Wei Jingyang was about to speak again, someone reminded him, "Captain, it looks like your phone."
"Ok?"
Wei Jingyang was taken aback. He looked down and flipped his phone over. Sure enough, someone was calling him.
He coughed awkwardly, said "Please wait a moment," and then turned and left the meeting room.
Upon entering the hallway, Wei Jingyang answered the phone:
"Hey, Dad, what's wrong?"
No sooner had he finished speaking than a roar came from the other end of the phone.
"What else?! How dare you ask!"
"What's going on with all the news these days? I gave you four helicopters and you couldn't even keep an eye on one mask? Are you an idiot?"
"I told you repeatedly to keep a low profile. As long as you get through this period, I can help you get promoted smoothly. But you had to be so flamboyant. Now look what you've done!"
Wei Jingyang's face turned bright red, and the tips of his fingers gripping the phone so tightly that they even turned white.
Seemingly tired of talking, the person on the other end of the phone paused, followed by a gurgling sound, as if drinking water.
After a long silence, the other end spoke again: "Take your work off for now. I'll get someone to transfer you away from there as soon as possible. Just behave yourself and get through this period."
By the way, I've already taken care of what happened last week when that girl recorded you. We'll get your things back soon, so don't cause me any more trouble!
“I know, Dad.”
Wei Jingyang lowered his head, his right hand clenched into a fist.
"Alright, that's all, hang up now."
"and many more!"
Wei Jingyang abruptly raised his head, interrupting Wei Shanhe who was about to hang up the phone, a fierce glint flashing in his eyes:
"Dad, I've never lost to anyone since I was a child. I'm begging you, I want to try again, please help me!"
Inside the chairman's office of Shanhe Group, a middle-aged man was sitting in his boss's chair, receiving service from his beautiful secretary who was kneeling in front of him.
Upon hearing the words on the phone, Wei Shanhe frowned deeply.
As Wei Jingyang's father, Wei Shanhe certainly knew what his son meant.
His excellence and ruthlessness are almost identical to his own, a trait that was evident even in his childhood.
For example, when he was in elementary school, a child surpassed him at a sports meet and won first place. At that time, Wei Jingyang, who was only eleven years old, had someone break that child's leg.
I had to step in to resolve that matter myself.
After a moment of contemplation, Wei Shanhe finally spoke slowly: "What do you need?"
"I want our group's collection, that gem that once caused a sensation, the Moonlight Eye."
"Moonlight Eyes?"
Wei Shanhe suddenly stood up, eliciting a chorus of skepticism from his secretary.
However, Wei Shanhe had no time to pay attention to her at this moment. He put his pants back on and said with a serious expression:
"Are you sure?"
"Yes!" Wei Jingyang answered decisively.
Another silence followed.
Just as Wei Jingyang was about to speak again, Wei Shanhe's voice finally came through the phone again:
"Okay, I'll prepare the things for you. Come and pick them up tomorrow."
"Thank you, Dad."
The call was disconnected.
Wei Jingyang slowly straightened up, his eyes narrowing slightly, the ruthlessness in them growing even stronger: "Chen Feng..."
……
The following day, an article suddenly appeared and topped the charts with overwhelming popularity.
[Shocking! Wei Jingyang, the captain of the Third Patrol Division, has challenged Chen Feng to a duel, betting his Moonlight Eyes on it! He simply asks Chen Feng if he dares to accept!]
The report also included a photo of Wei Jingyang holding a gemstone.
The gemstone is milky white with a touch of purple in the center. The openwork purple-gold base supports the gemstone, making it look very valuable.
This explosive news immediately went viral across the internet.
