"Hmph! Lin Feng, don't push it! I just wanted to remind you... things between you and my cousin have already reached a certain stage. Don't mess things up too badly! Otherwise, even if my cousin forgives you, my uncle won't. Given his status, he would never allow you to be with my cousin!" Li Liping sternly warned Lin Feng. She knew Wu Mei was important to Lin Feng, so she didn't dare direct her anger at her. However, Li Liping couldn't help the disdain in her eyes as she looked at Wu Mei, clearly mistaking the disguised woman for a real call girl.

Wu Mei's eyes filled with even more resentment. Although she often encountered such misunderstandings in her line of work as a special agent, men, upon seeing her fiery appearance, usually didn't care about her identity and just wanted to get closer. But Li Liping, herself a beautiful woman, showed such obvious disdain that Wu Mei felt a pang of discomfort.

"My business is none of your concern, alright?" Lin Feng felt a headache coming on. After Li Liping's words, he knew he'd have to spend a long time explaining things to Wu Mei. What a pain!

"If I weren't so close to my cousin, I wouldn't bother meddling. You can fool around all you want!" Li Liping said earnestly. She rarely interfered in other people's business; speaking so much to Lin Feng this time was already an exception for her.

As for why Lin Feng was on the ship, Li Liping didn't press further. He must have pulled some strings through a friend to sneak aboard with Wu Mei to fool around... she guessed. No matter what, Li Liping would never believe Lin Feng had any direct connection to these underworld figures.

Lin Feng shook his head with a wry smile. He really hadn't come aboard to fool around. But before he could speak, his phone began to ring insistently in his pocket...

It was Long Jiu again.

"Brother Feng... why aren't you at the Tulip Hall yet? Lord Dragon has been waiting for you! I'm begging you, please hurry up and show yourself. If you don't, you'll be the death of me!" Long Jiu's voice on the phone was starting to tremble.

"I'll be right there..." Lin Feng casually hung up and said to Wu Mei with a smile, "It's about time. We should go."

Wu Mei nodded and stood up, following Lin Feng.

"Senior Sister Liping, I have some things to attend to. We'll talk next time! Bye..." Lin Feng casually greeted Li Liping, then grabbed Wu Mei's hand and scurried away as if escaping.

"Lin Feng... Hmph! He just left without even finishing his sentence!" Li Liping stared resentfully at Lin Feng's retreating back, muttering to herself in dissatisfaction, "You disrespected me first, so don't blame me for being ruthless. I'm going to tell my cousin everything..."

Li Liping took out her phone, about to dial Cao Ying's number. Her thumb hovered over the call button for a moment, but ultimately, she didn't press it. I should first see what exactly Lin Feng is doing on this ship, then I can give my cousin all the details... Consider it something to do since I'm bored! I'll even take some incriminating photos of Lin Feng and that Wu Mei as proof, so no one can say I'm framing him... Hmm, I'm such a genius!

Li Liping put her phone away, beckoned to her bodyguard, and then, with light steps, followed in the direction Lin Feng had gone.

When Lin Feng and Wu Mei appeared outside the Tulip Hall on the ninth floor, Long Jiu, who had been anxiously waiting, was pacing like an ant on a hot griddle. The moment he saw Lin Feng, he didn't even have time to complain, almost silently grabbing Lin Feng's hand and pulling him into the Tulip Hall.

The Tulip Hall was a medium-sized conference room that could hold up to a hundred people. Although it wasn't full, there were seventy to eighty individuals present. Lin Feng scanned the room, recognizing many prominent figures from the underworld, including familiar faces like Long Shaotian, Long Tianyi, Chen Ming, and Zhang Yi of the White Tiger Gang, along with many others he didn't know.

Quite a crowd! Lin Feng was a bit surprised. Anyone holding a meeting in this hall had to be an influential figure. With so many people, if each group averaged about three members, didn't that mean there were leaders from nearly thirty organizations in this small conference room? So many gang bosses hiding here... If ten kilograms of C4 were to go BOOM right now, public safety in China would probably improve by at least thirty percent! Lin Feng mused maliciously.

Wu Mei was even more excited than Lin Feng. In her eyes, these underworld bigwigs were like walking achievements. Catching just a few could mean a promotion by a rank or half-rank. They were all valuable targets!

Seeing Lin Feng and Wu Mei suddenly enter, Chen Ming, the Qingzi Sect's Battle Hall Master, couldn't help but feel a twinge of guilt. He subconsciously lifted the coffee cup in front of him, pretending to drink, to hide his face.

"Boss, that's the guy! He's the one who injured me, Little Zhong, and Little Cheng last night... He even stole my Poison Sting Dagger! This guy has absolutely no respect for our Tianlang Gang in the Southern Central Province! Boss, you have to stand up for me!" An extremely shrill voice, laced with sobs, wailed from a corner of the conference room.

Lin Feng turned his head and saw a man with his head wrapped in bandages pointing at him.

So it's you! The man with the bandaged head was indeed Xiao Lang of the Sky Wolf Gang, the one who had disrespected Xue Qingyi the other night and been taught a lesson by Lin Feng.

Lin Feng almost burst out laughing at Xiao Lang's pathetic state. Did this guy hit the back of his head last night? His head was now so tightly bandaged it looked quite comical.

Beside Xiao Lang sat a serious-looking man in his fifties. He sported a small mustache, and his eyes, sharp as lightning, gave him a very capable air.

This was Fu Chuanqi, Gang Leader of the Tianlang Gang in the Southern Central Province.

After hearing Xiao Lang's tearful accusation, Fu Chuanqi didn't react immediately. Instead, he carefully sized Lin Feng up before turning to Long Shaotian and asking gravely, "Lord Dragon, might I inquire about this young man's background? Xiao Lang is immature, and there might have been some misunderstanding between them last night. I would appreciate it if Lord Dragon could mediate!"

Fu Chuanqi was a shrewd man. Seeing Lin Feng in the Tulip Hall meant he was no ordinary person. He couldn't ignore Xiao Lang's plea, yet he dared not rashly offend Lin Feng. Thus, asking Long Shaotian to mediate was the best option. After all, Long Shaotian was a Hall Master of the Qingzi Sect and the host who had invited all these figures from the martial world onto the ship.

Seeing Fu Chuanqi question Lin Feng's origins, Chen Ming, the Battle Hall Master, suddenly perked up. He knew Lin Feng possessed astonishing combat strength. If more people wanted to go up against Lin Feng, that would be perfect!

Long Shaotian didn't know what had transpired between Lin Feng and Xiao Lang. However, he was aware that beyond asking Lin Feng to fight for him in the boxing match, he had little control over Lin Feng's other affairs.
