Chapter 104: You’re Still Not Qualified! (First update, asking for monthly votes)

“Do you know what kind of background this Chen Feng has?” In the BMW trailing behind the white Maserati, Liu Kaifeng’s expression was extremely ugly.

The driver was a sharp-faced, weaselly little man. Hearing the question, he hurriedly said, “I don’t know where that brat comes from, but Young Master Liu, you don’t need to take him seriously. He doesn’t seem to have any real backing. I remember that today, during the college entrance exams, he even gave a speech on his own. His family circumstances are very ordinary. Heaven knows what kind of dogshit luck he had to catch Chairman Xiao’s eye. He’s nothing but a pretty boy. Young Master Liu, there’s no need to worry about him.”

Liu Kaifeng let out a cold laugh. “So this Xiao Yu is supposed to be some ice-cold female CEO, and yet she actually has this sort of taste. She likes keeping pretty boys on the side.”

The driver chuckled. “Young Master Liu, I don’t think this Xiao Yu is all that easy to handle either. But as long as you make a move, wouldn’t it be effortless? Looking at her, she’s clearly unsatisfied. That pretty boy probably can’t satisfy that cheap woman Xiao Yu at all!”

Liu Kaifeng narrowed his eyes, then casually took out a small medicine bottle from his pocket, about as thick as a thumb. Inside it swirled a little deep-blue liquid. Looking at the driver, he said, “Wang Zuo, later mix this medicine into some wine and send it over to Xiao Yu.”

“Young Master Liu, this is?” Wang Zuo asked in surprise.

“This is a top-grade aphrodisiac I had a friend bring back from overseas.” Liu Kaifeng chuckled obscenely. “It works wonderfully. Later on, I guarantee that Xiao Yu will be dripping with desire.”

“This...” Wang Zuo hesitated. “Young Master Liu, isn’t that a bit improper? However you look at it, Xiao Yu is quite famous in Jiangzhou, and she also has a pretty solid network in Donghai. Our Chairman Liu actually values this collaboration a great deal.”

“Rubbish.” Liu Kaifeng gave a sneer of disdain. “This Xiao Yu is obviously just trying to latch onto our Liu family’s coattails. Working with her is merely because our family thinks she has some value. What is she, really? Give her a little courtesy and she starts forgetting her own surname. Sleeping with her is already giving her face.”

Wang Zuo said respectfully, “Yes, yes, Young Master Liu, you’re right.”

A vulgar smile tugged at the corners of Liu Kaifeng’s lips as he continued, “Don’t worry. We won’t ruin this deal. After I’m done with her, I won’t just toss her aside. I’m going to marry her.”

Wang Zuo froze, then asked in disbelief, “Young Master Liu, you, you’re not joking, are you?”

“Of course not.” Liu Kaifeng grinned. “Her company is no small thing. If I marry her, then such a large company will be within my reach. Once I’ve taken her group for myself, I can kick her away with one foot.”

As he said this, Liu Kaifeng licked his lips and lightly patted the area beneath his waist. “Relax. I really don’t believe that in this world, there’s any woman who could taste my big manhood and still resist my advances.”

Wang Zuo laughed. “Congratulations, Young Master Liu. Once that cold female CEO gets heated up, I’m afraid no ordinary man will be able to handle her.”

“That goes without saying.”

Xiao Yu’s private club

“Please, Young Master Liu.” Xiao Yu casually made an inviting gesture.

A smile remained on Liu Kaifeng’s face. “Chairwoman Xiao, please go ahead.”

Xiao Yu merely glanced at him, then led Liu Kaifeng up to the second floor. The two of them entered a warmly decorated room. After Xiao Yu sat down, her gaze fell on Liu Kaifeng. “Young Master Liu, what would you like to eat?”

Liu Kaifeng curled his lip and glanced at Chen Feng, who was seated beside Xiao Yu, then said carelessly, “Anything’s fine. Let him cook it.”

Chen Feng remained unmoved in his chair. On the side, however, Wang Zuo could not hold back any longer. Jumping up, he pointed at Chen Feng’s nose and barked, “Kid, we’re talking to you. Get in the kitchen now!”

“Heh.” A dry, mocking sound came from Chen Feng. He looked at Wang Zuo and said, “You want me to cook? Young Master Liu doesn’t seem to be my boss, does he? Chairman Xiao hasn’t said a word yet, so when did it become an outsider’s turn to point fingers at me?”

“You?” Wang Zuo was instantly choked speechless.

Liu Kaifeng’s gaze fell on Xiao Yu instead. He shook his head with false ease and said, “Chairwoman Xiao, your company’s employees are really quite arrogant. Looks like you should seriously manage them.”

Xiao Yu only smiled faintly, her expression unreadable. Calmly, she said, “Young Master Liu, you’re joking. Chen Feng isn’t my employee. He’s my partner. The exploding fish balls we developed together this time actually include a forty percent share for him. He’s a major shareholder.”

Liu Kaifeng was taken aback.

Xiao Yu continued with a smile, “So I certainly wouldn’t dare casually send one of the company’s major shareholders into the kitchen.”

Hearing this, Liu Kaifeng’s mouth twitched slightly. He had not expected Chen Feng to hold forty percent of the shares. He smiled and said, “In that case, I suppose I underestimated Mr. Chen. I had no idea Mr. Chen was such a major shareholder. I wonder if you could show me a few skills?”

“Young Master Liu needn’t mind it. I only hold shares through my technical contribution. As for showing off my skills, let’s forget it. When I cook, it depends on who I’m cooking for. Sometimes if I like someone, I wouldn’t mind cooking three meals a day for her every single day of my life and never feel the slightest bit tired.”

As he spoke, Chen Feng did not look at Liu Kaifeng at all. His eyes remained fixed on Xiao Yu.

Then he turned his gaze back to Liu Kaifeng. “As for some other people, I simply don’t like them. For someone I don’t like, it’s already generous enough of me to sit at the same table and eat with him. As for cooking, I’m afraid I might not be able to resist adding a little laxative or something.”

Chen Feng smiled brightly at Liu Kaifeng.

From the beginning, he had held no goodwill toward Liu Kaifeng. The way the man looked at Xiao Yu was far too brazen, and that was absolutely intolerable. So Chen Feng naturally showed him no courtesy. Besides, Xiao Yu had already said it herself: if there were no Liu family, there would still be plenty of people crying and begging to cooperate with them. Why should he bother giving Liu Kaifeng a pleasant face?

Liu Kaifeng’s pupils contracted slightly as he stared at Chen Feng. “Chen Feng, are you saying I’m one of the people you dislike?”

“I never said that. Young Master Liu, don’t misread things. I just happen to be looking at you and, coincidentally, I don’t feel like cooking.” Chen Feng shrugged at him, making a helpless gesture, deliberately stressing the word “coincidentally.”

“You!” Liu Kaifeng was instantly enraged. He never would have imagined Chen Feng would dare speak to him like this. What did he mean, he just happened not to feel like cooking after seeing him? In plain terms, the brat was saying he simply found him displeasing and wasn’t going to cook for him, yet not a single dirty word had actually been uttered.

That only made Liu Kaifeng feel even more unable to bear it. He had grown up with a silver spoon in his mouth. When had he ever suffered such humiliation? In that moment, he felt a violent urge to lose control.

“Damn it, kid, what did you say? Say that again!” Wang Zuo, beside him, shot to his feet in fury and pointed at Chen Feng’s nose. “You little bastard, don’t be so shameless when we’re giving you face!”

Whoosh.

Chen Feng also rose to his feet at once and glared at Wang Zuo. “What do you mean, shameless when we give you face? Did I curse your Young Master Liu? Did I say he was sinister to the bone? Did I say this brat had a filthy mind and nothing but dirty thoughts in his head?”

“Shut up!” Liu Kaifeng roared furiously, nearly exploding on the spot. “All of you, shut up!”

“Brother, sit down first.” Xiao Yu glanced at Chen Feng, then looked back at Liu Kaifeng with a smile. “Young Master Liu, don’t take it to heart. My younger brother is still too young and doesn’t know any better. Please don’t take it to heart.”

“Doesn’t know any better?” Liu Kaifeng glared at the tall, broad-shouldered Chen Feng. This guy was even taller than he was, and she still said he didn’t know any better? It was obvious Xiao Yu was taking Chen Feng’s side. He looked at Chen Feng with such malice that he nearly wanted to tear him apart limb from limb.

But Chen Feng really was young. Sixteen.

A boy that age truly could be dismissed as immature and thoughtless. What could anyone do about it?

At that point, Xiao Yu said in a calm, measured tone, “As for Young Master Liu, the one at your side is already this old. He must have followed you for quite some time, and by rights he ought to have seen his share of major occasions. Yet at such an age, why are his words and actions still so reckless? The master hasn’t even spoken yet. Since when is it a servant’s place to open his mouth?”

Wang Zuo was instantly dumbfounded. Xiao Yu’s few unhurried words left him with not a single thing he could say.

Liu Kaifeng immediately shot Wang Zuo a glare, then said, “Chairwoman Xiao’s lesson is well taken. When I get back, I’ll make sure to give this brat a proper lesson.”

Only then did Xiao Yu smile brightly again and continue, “Young Master Liu, Chen Feng is just a bit young and willful. There’s no need for you to take it to heart. How about this: I’ll have the chef make something at random instead.”

“Fine.” A faint smile appeared on Liu Kaifeng’s face. “Chairwoman Xiao is truly joking. How could I possibly stoop to the level of a child?”

Chen Feng’s lips carried a trace of mocking amusement. He did not care in the least about trading verbal blows with Liu Kaifeng. What he was worried about was that Liu Kaifeng was full of rotten intentions; what if he tried something against Xiao Yu? He was the one getting overly anxious. Xiao Yu’s level was something even the system could not probe. With her methods, how could she possibly be taken advantage of?

Youth really was this willful.
