Lin Feng lay beside Wu Mei, his mind racing with thoughts, until he eventually drifted into a restless sleep.

Early the next morning, Lin Feng was shaken awake by Wu Mei.

"Great Slacker, wake up…" Wu Mei stood by the bed, looking at Lin Feng with a playful smile. She wore a coat, and her hair showed signs of her having been out. In her hand, she held two passports.

Still a bit groggy, Lin Feng sat up and stared at the passports in Wu Mei's hand, asking distractedly, "Do we need passports to board the ship?"

"Of course. Cruises are international trips…" Wu Mei nodded and said with a smile, "I knew you wouldn't have prepared a passport, so I got one for you."

With Wu Mei's connections, forging a passport was simple. Helping Lin Feng get one was a small way she bent the rules for personal reasons.

Lin Feng took the passport from Wu Mei and casually flipped through it. The information matched his ID perfectly, and it looked so authentic that Lin Feng suspected it might actually be real—perhaps a green light given by Wu Mei's superiors to aid her case.

"The ship departs at three this afternoon. We need to get there early to board! Long Jiu is already waiting outside…" Wu Mei urged him.

Lin Feng scrambled to wash up and get dressed. Once he was done, he noticed a brand-new men's casual suit lying on the bed. Judging by the size, it would fit him perfectly.

"This is?" Lin Feng looked at Wu Mei quizzically.

"Your clothes were torn, weren't they? I just bought this for you from the mall downstairs. It's been dry-cleaned. Try it on!" Wu Mei said generously, looking at Lin Feng.

Who would have thought Wu Mei could be so considerate? A warmth spread through Lin Feng's heart as he quickly put on the white suit Wu Mei had prepared for him.

Half a minute later, Wu Mei gasped in admiration at the sight of Lin Feng in his new clothes, clicking her tongue and saying, "Well, look at you! I didn't realize you'd be so handsome in a suit! A pair of sunglasses would make it perfect…"

A white suit always made a man look sharp. This white casual suit filled Lin Feng with a heroic air, and his every move seemed to exude masculine charm.

The adage "clothes make the man" certainly rang true.

"I've always been handsome, alright…" Lin Feng always defended himself earnestly whenever his appearance was discussed.

"Alright, alright… You're handsome, very handsome. Happy now?" Wu Mei seemed quite pleased and didn't mind Lin Feng's boasting in the slightest.

"The suit fits perfectly, and it's very comfortable…" Lin Feng was satisfied with Wu Mei's taste; choosing clothes that fit him so well was quite a skill.

"Let's go then. Long Jiu is already waiting outside," Wu Mei said with a light laugh after giving Lin Feng one last look.

Lin Feng followed Wu Mei out of the room and saw a visibly weary Long Jiu. Poor Long Jiu had barely dared to close his eyes the previous night, terrified Lin Feng would slip out of the hotel. He had no idea Lin Feng had climbed out the window a long time ago.

"Ahem, Brother Feng, did you sleep well last night?" Long Jiu grinned when he saw Lin Feng, then glanced suggestively at Wu Mei as he asked.

Of course, Long Jiu wasn't actually asking about Lin Feng's quality of sleep…

"You're quite the curious one!" Lin Feng certainly didn't need to give face to Long Jiu, who had offended him and was now responsible for monitoring him. He asked coldly, "Do you really want to know the answer?"

Startled by Lin Feng's icy tone, Long Jiu remembered Lin Feng was no pushover. He quickly shook his head, saying with a crestfallen expression, "Just asking, Brother Feng. Don't mind me…"

Seeing Long Jiu so thoroughly subdued by Lin Feng, an indescribably smug smile appeared on Wu Mei's face. That's my man, so domineering!

「...」

Lin Feng drove Wu Mei directly to the exclusive parking lot for the M Princess Cruise at Shengang Port in the Hexi District. After paying the parking fee for half a month, Lin Feng and Wu Mei got out of the car.

Led by Long Jiu, Lin Feng and Wu Mei went through security and entered a VIP waiting lounge, where they saw Long Shaotian and his men chatting and laughing.

"Lord Dragon, I've brought Lin Feng!" Having successfully delivered Lin Feng to Long Shaotian, Long Jiu let out a huge sigh of relief. Dealing with Lin Feng all day was incredibly stressful; he was constantly afraid Lin Feng would either run off or beat him up. This job was simply not for humans!

"Mm!" Long Shaotian looked pleased. He glanced at Long Jiu before turning his gaze to Lin Feng, smiling faintly. "Lin Feng, are you holding up alright?"

"Rest assured, Lord Dragon, everything is fine," Lin Feng replied with a smile.

"That's good. You're my secret weapon; don't disappoint me!" Long Shaotian patted Lin Feng's shoulder warmly and sincerely.

Truly befitting a gang leader! He's so skilled at currying favor! Lin Feng thought, smiling and nodding while inwardly criticizing Long Shaotian.

Behind Long Shaotian, Long Tianyi was also present. His face turned sour at the sight of Lin Feng with Wu Mei. Long Tianyi still held a grudge against Lin Feng for his defeat in their last competition; he firmly believed he would have won if Lin Feng hadn't used a Silver Needle in a surprise attack.

Long Tianyi had planned to find an opportunity to retaliate against Lin Feng as soon as they boarded the ship. However, he didn't know that Long Shaotian had given him strict orders not to make a move on Lin Feng until after he had completed the ten scheduled matches!

For some unknown reason, Long Shaotian had suddenly become exceedingly confident, leaving Long Tianyi no room to disobey his orders.

Unable to get his revenge immediately, Long Tianyi's resentment towards Lin Feng deepened. At this moment, his eyes seemed to burn with fire.

"Lin Feng, I'll challenge you after your ten matches are over. You'd better not lose before then!" Long Tianyi said coldly, taking advantage of a moment when Long Shaotian was greeting others to approach Lin Feng.

"I won't lose. But you should be careful not to capsize in a gutter yourself!"

Lin Feng responded to Long Tianyi's provocation with a calm smile. He was well aware of Long Tianyi's deep resentment but felt no pressure. If it came down to it, he would just fight him again. His previous victory gave him confidence.

Suddenly, with a THUD, THUD, the double doors of the waiting lounge were forcefully pushed open. A group of burly men in black suits strode in—at least twenty or thirty of them.

At the head of the group was a short and stocky man with a fleshy face. His eyes, glinting coldly, swept over everyone in the VIP lounge before finally landing on Long Shaotian. He burst into an exaggerated laugh. "Haha… Lord Dragon, long time no see! I must say, I'm disappointed to see you're still alive!"

Long Shaotian glanced at the man, a disdainful smile playing on his lips. "Chen Ming, you're becoming more and more pathetic. Since you can't do anything to me, you resort to cursing me to death?"
