Chen Feng saw him say this, and of course he wouldn't persuade him further. Instead, he asked with concern, "Have you received the final payment for your foreign trade order this time? Has that company responded?"

Jin Yongnian immediately beamed and said, "We got in touch with them yesterday. It's a fairly decent company. Moreover, I received support from the embassy and our compatriots' chamber of commerce here. The other party has already stated that they will remit the remaining funds to our company's account within three days. More than half an hour ago, they already transferred 3 million US Dollars into our company's account."

Chen Feng was slightly surprised to hear that the other party wasn't a scam company, but he was happy for him to get the final payment.

"That's good. I was really worried before that you had encountered a scam company."

Jin Yongnian laughed and said, "The other party is still a pretty decent company. Before I signed a trade contract with them, I checked them out through multiple channels. However, if they could renege on our final payment, over 9 million US Dollars, of course they'd be willing and happy to do so.\"

But since the other party is also a big company, they need to maintain business credibility, and with our compatriots' chamber of commerce here putting pressure on them, such a big company naturally wouldn't dare to pull any tricks."

In short, the reason we're able to secure this payment is thanks to our powerful country. With our nation as a backer, the other party quickly sent the money to us."

"That's true. You really turned misfortune into a blessing this time. If not for your kidnapping, you might not have been able to get the final payment back so quickly."

"Yes. The reason the other party sent the money so quickly this time is also because of the efforts made by our compatriots' chamber of commerce here."

"That's good then. Once all the final payments are received, we should be able to leave here and return home."

"Yes, I escaped a narrow escape this time. After returning, I'm planning to change careers. Although this trade order was a success, the risks were too high; I almost lost my life. Moreover, foreign trade has been sluggish for the past two years, and your auntie and Xinyan firmly oppose me continuing in the foreign trade business.

It's just that after doing foreign trade business for over a decade, if I stop after going back, I suddenly won't know what kind of business to run. Do you have any good suggestions?"

Chen Feng thought to himself, what good suggestions could I have?

"It mainly depends on your interests, what you are particularly interested in, and whether you have any special advantages, etc."

"Yes, I think so too. Actually, when I was younger, I loved singing and even thought of becoming a singer. But fate played tricks on me, and when I was in my teens, a sudden calamity at home left my parents ill and they passed away one after another, leaving a sales company for me to take over. That's how I inadvertently embarked on the business path, later transforming the sales company into a trading company. If it were based on my interests, I would actually want to open a record company and release an album myself, haha."

Chen Feng was a bit speechless.

"Of course, now there's not much profit in running a record company. If I actually opened one, nine times out of ten, it would lose money. So, I think I could invest in the industry related to singing and music, such as the entertainment industry. You now own a film and television company, right? And you've produced a very popular TV series. Do you think you could let me invest in your company and join you in developing the entertainment business?"

Ah, so that's what you're waiting for.

"Our company is not accepting external investments at the moment." Chen Feng directly declined, but still offered a brief explanation, "Our company's growth momentum is good now, and I've rejected numerous potential buyouts and investments from different capital sources."

Jin Yongnian wasn't upset and said with a smile, "I'm definitely different from those people. If I were to invest in your film and television company, Xinyan would hold the shares for me. You understand what I mean, right? In fact, I know nothing about the domestic entertainment industry, and being older, I don't wish to start learning new things. So, it's better to have Xinyan represent me."

Chen Feng heard this and could somewhat guess that Jin Yongnian was trying to deepen the relationship between him and Jin Xinyan. If he bought into his film and television company, it would entangle them in interests.

Such is the heart of a parent.

Unfortunately, Chen Feng certainly didn't want to be bound with Jin Xinyan in interests, nor did he want Jin Xinyan to be in the same company with his other three women.

"I cannot make a decision on this at the moment. Although I am currently the owner of the company, my hired professional manager is responsible for the daily operations, and she also holds shares in the company. Let's talk about it in the future."

Involving Jin Xinyan, Chen Feng found it difficult to directly decline in front of him but still tactfully expressed his refusal.

Seeing this, Jin Yongnian felt somewhat helpless. Through conversations with his daughter in the past two days, he subtly found out that his daughter and Chen Feng weren't truly a couple yet.

Moreover, from the little interactions over these past two days, he truly deemed Chen Feng as brave, wise, and wealthy, with important connections behind him.

This time Chen Feng was able to ask personnel from the embassy to rescue him together, and afterwards, the embassy was willing to aid him in pressuring the company; in his opinion, it was mainly thanks to Chen Feng and Qin Zhen's connections.

Thus, at this moment, Jin Yongnian was very satisfied with Chen Feng. In his heart, he had already regarded him as a future son-in-law.

However, he also noticed Chen Feng's excellence and his attractiveness to the opposite sex.

The foreign girl who initially acted as Chen Feng's guide seemed to be continuously flirting with Chen Feng. As someone with experience, Jin Yongnian vaguely saw that the two might already have some kind of relationship.

This naturally aroused a strong sense of crisis in Jin Yongnian.

He didn't want such a golden son-in-law like Chen Feng to slip through his fingers.

Therefore, he had the thought of investing in Chen Feng's company, wanting his daughter to be more deeply tied to Chen Feng.

Unfortunately, Chen Feng wasn't accepting.

Seeing this, Jin Yongnian didn't insist and instead began talking about some old stories from his family, including some about Jin Xinyan.

Chen Feng patiently listened to him for more than half an hour. Finally, unable to stand it any longer, he excused himself to take a shower and thus left his room.

The next day, Chen Feng, Qin Zhen, and Anna were touring Brussels as usual. At noon, they chose a seafood restaurant.

According to reports, this restaurant has a hundred-year history and prepares all kinds of seafood flavors, specializing in mussels.

Chen Feng tried it, and it was indeed quite good.

After their meal, as they walked out of the restaurant, they were met by a group of people, among whom was a blonde lady in her twenties. She had fair skin, graceful manners, and was very beautiful, surrounded by five men who looked very formidable, clearly elite bodyguards.

Judging by the setup, this blonde lady undoubtedly had significant background, either a celebrity or a wealthy heiress.

Chen Feng couldn't help but curiously ask Anna in Mandarin, "Who is this woman? Is she a celebrity?"

Seeing Chen Feng's previously unblinking gaze at this blonde, Anna was already a bit unhappy, and now hearing Chen Feng actually asking her, her face darkened and she replied with irritation, "How would I know? Why don't you ask her yourself?"

Qin Zhen, standing nearby, saw Chen Feng getting snubbed and burst into laughter, "Why are you so curious? This woman is beautiful, sure, but clearly she's out of your league."

Just as he finished speaking, Chen Feng's expression suddenly changed. He abruptly grabbed Anna and turned to run back towards the restaurant, shouting to Qin Zhen, "There's danger, get inside the restaurant quickly."

Chen Feng had just finished speaking when gunshots were heard, and those seemingly formidable bodyguards immediately fell to the ground, shot.

In this busy area, the surrounding crowd instantly erupted into chaos, with people screaming and scattering in terror.

At this point, without Chen Feng needing to remind him again, Qin Zhen also bolted back toward the restaurant.

The three of them successfully rushed into the restaurant in succession, finally having a moment to turn back and see what was happening outside.

They saw the previously elegant blonde lady now disheveled, chasing after them, and quickly entered the restaurant too. She also rushed towards them, shouting loudly, "Call the police! Help me, someone's trying to kill me!"

Damn it!

Chen Feng and Qin Zhen almost swore out loud.
