Chapter 749: They Behaved After Being Tidied Up
The Old Monster was very understanding of Nangong He’s feelings, but at the moment he could not leave Capital City. All he could think about was setting aside all his affairs and waiting until he truly had the time and opportunity to deal with this matter. However, after discussing with Nangong He, even the Old Monster was at his wit’s end. In the end, with no other choice, he could only give the Jade Stone that contained a sealed portion of Sword Qi to Nangong He and also provided Nangong He with some strategies to handle it.
But the Old Monster’s thoughts were always on Lin Feng. Lin Feng’s emergence could be said to have turned everything in the Cultivation World upside down. Naturally, the Old Monster was extremely curious about Lin Feng and wanted to know why such an unimaginably powerful young man had suddenly appeared—someone who could kill an S-level expert in his early twenties. Such ability was truly against the natural order!
Thinking of this, the Old Monster couldn’t help but inwardly sigh, "Lin Feng, Lin Feng, who are you exactly? If it weren’t for the fact that I cannot leave Capital City, I would truly like to meet you."
......
The next day, Lin Feng unexpectedly received a call from Ding Wan’er, telling him that she and Leng Mei were going shopping that evening and did not need him to take them home, asking Lin Feng to head home by himself. After getting the call, Lin Feng agreed without overthinking and, after finishing his classes in the afternoon, directly called Huang Shi over to drive him.
The events from last night had Lin Feng organizing his thoughts ever since, pondering how to best approach and explain the situation to the women around him. This issue was different from others; each woman by his side had her own personality, and he just wanted to do his best so as not to make any of them feel sad. The matter was giving Lin Feng a lot of trouble, and no matter how he thought about it, he found it incredibly difficult because, from the outset, he felt he owed the other women.
Sitting in the car with Lin Feng, Huang Shi also remained deep in thought and did not say much more. Having been with the Boss for so long, he had never seen the Boss take on anything so seriously, so Huang Shi quietly drove without disturbing Lin Feng’s thoughts.
The car continued on its silent journey toward Lin Feng’s home, with no sound inside except for the breathing of Lin Feng and Huang Shi...
Just as the car had left the school not too far behind, a group of people suddenly overtook them, flaunting various luxury sports cars—it was Zhang Xing and others they had encountered at the racing track. As each of their cars sped past Huang Shi, they ostentatiously honked the horn, and upon seeing Huang Shi driving, they immediately began to talk.
"Isn’t that Young Master Huang? Why aren’t you driving a supercar anymore?"
"Young Master Huang, when did you start liking cars like this?"
"Young Master Huang, how can such a crappy car match your status!"
"This car is way too old, Young Master Huang, you should stick to your original one."
...
As everyone from Zhang Xing’s group drove past Huang Shi, they couldn’t resist commenting. They had not expected such a coincidence to encounter Huang Shi here, and were even more surprised to see him driving an A7—a car they deemed unworthy of Huang Shi. In the circles of the young elites of Tianhai, everyone knew Huang Shi’s former supercar was unrivaled. Driving such a car seemed like a fall from grace, and they all couldn’t help but scoff at him, feeling that Huang Shi was not living up to his status and was embarrassing the elite of Tianhai.
Seeing Zhang Xing and others act this way, Huang Shi was at a loss for words and felt incredibly childish. Seeing Lin Feng looking at him made Huang Shi even more uncomfortable.
"Boss, was I like this before?" Huang Shi asked awkwardly while driving. Recalling the past, he, just like them, used to roam the city in a supercar. Back then, he hadn’t felt anything wrong with such behavior, but the current Huang Shi no longer felt the arrogant excitement of the past. In his eyes, the behavior of Zhang Xing and his group was truly juvenile.
"Yes," Lin Feng replied indifferently. He remembered what Huang Shi was like when he first knew him—indeed, Huang Shi had been just like that. Nonchalantly, Lin Feng nodded and responded to Huang Shi.
Upon hearing Lin Feng’s answer, Huang Shi was overcome with shame. Now, seeing things from the perspective of others, he finally realized how foolish and juvenile his past actions had been. Back then, he had never given a second thought to how repulsive such behavior was to others, always believing it was the height of impressiveness. Little did he consider how his actions affected other people. Now, witnessing the behavior of Zhang Xing and the others, which was a reflection of his past self, Huang Shi felt utterly ashamed!
Huang Shi felt incredibly fortunate in his heart, grateful that he had met Lin Feng. It was under Lin Feng’s guidance that he had completely changed from his original, immature self to the steady person he had become now. This transformation was what made Huang Shi the happiest. If he had not met Lin Feng, perhaps he would still be acting as arrogantly as these people, yelling and making a fuss here. Thinking of this, Huang Shi felt even more ashamed and embarrassed, truly regretting his past behavior.
At that moment, the car driven by Huang Shi turned off the ring road and headed towards Lin Feng’s home. However, just after leaving the ring road, several supercars suddenly overtook him, quickly passing Huang Shi’s car and forcibly blocking him, leaving Huang Shi with no choice but to stop his car.
"What do you guys want to do?" Huang Shi’s face turned very ugly when he saw several people blocking his car. He had no clue what these people intended. It was beyond him why Zhang Xing and his crew would dare to stop his car. Even though he had stopped street racing, he was still one of the top young masters in Tianhai. Didn’t these people fear making him angry? Moreover, the Boss was in the car, which made Huang Shi even less able to accept the situation.
"Young Master Huang, don’t be mad; I don’t mean anything else. I just want to race with you today. You set such an impressive record last time at the racetrack—don’t you dare accept my challenge today?" Zhang Xing spoke with a chuckle. Truth be told, he really couldn’t stand that Huang Shi had achieved professional-level results at the racetrack and had even caught Mike’s attention. His jealousy was aflame; after Huang Shi had disappeared for several months and then suddenly made a comeback, Zhang Xing felt strongly inferior and was adamant about defeating Huang Shi.
He had been wondering how to force Huang Shi into racing with him when he saw Huang Shi driving the A7 tonight. A plan formed in his mind: this was the perfect opportunity. Where else would he get such a chance? His car couldn’t possibly compare with Huang Shi’s broken A7; they were not even in the same league. No matter how good Huang Shi’s driving skills were, he couldn’t possibly win against him. This way, he could defeat Huang Shi fair and square, and Huang Shi wouldn’t be able to say a word about it. It was an opportunity sent from heaven!
The only thought in Zhang Xing’s mind now was that he must force Huang Shi to race with him today, to beat Huang Shi, and become the number one among the racing young masters of Tianhai. Then, his goal for the night would be achieved.
"That’s right, Young Master Huang, you’re so good at driving. Why not show us?"
"Let’s see which of you, Young Master Huang or Young Master Zhang Xing, is more formidable."
"Young Master Huang, you’ve set such records on the racetrack; how could you not dare to accept a challenge?"
"Don’t talk nonsense; Young Master Huang is so famous in Tianhai, he would never refuse a challenge!"
...
All the people Zhang Xing had brought were echoing his words. They, too, understood Zhang Xing’s thoughts perfectly. At the racetrack, Huang Shi had achieved professional standards driving Mike’s backup car. But now, Huang Shi was driving a mere A7. Under no circumstances could such a car run faster than theirs.
So, as long as Huang Shi agreed to race Zhang Xing tonight, there was no doubt that Huang Shi would take a fall. None of them believed that Huang Shi truly had the skills of a professional racer. Otherwise, why hadn’t he accepted Mike’s invitation much earlier, given his love for cars? It seemed obvious that Huang Shi’s past performance must have been a fluke. Even Huang Shi himself lacked confidence. If he accepted the challenge today, Zhang Xing would certainly defeat him—there was no question about it!
"Boring!" Huang Shi felt even more speechless upon hearing their words and simply responded indifferently, preparing to start the car and turn around to leave. He really didn’t want to deal with them.
But before Huang Shi could start the car, it was at this moment that Lin Feng spoke up.
"Huang Shi, when it’s time to tidy things up, there’s no need to be polite. Just like I straightened you out, they’re just a bunch of idle people who can’t all be killed, right? A little discipline will calm them down. If you don’t handle it once and for all, they’ll keep coming back to you."
Seeing Huang Shi’s intention to ignore these people, Lin Feng immediately advised him. Although racing with these people was pointless, if they weren’t taught a lesson, they would look for Huang Shi again in the future. Just like when he first met Huang Shi, Lin Feng understood the psychology of these people quite accurately. So, he stated there was no need to be polite to them; a lesson would ensure they stayed in line afterwards.
"Boss, I understand," Huang Shi was enlightened by Lin Feng’s words. He thought, that’s right, Zhang Xing and his friends had already been pestering him since last night. If it was the same today, then it was clear—if these people weren’t disciplined, they would continue to trouble him repeatedly. That was not the outcome Huang Shi wanted. Although racing with them was truly pointless, to avoid future troubles, it would be best to do as the Boss had suggested.
Having said this, Huang Shi got out of the car and stood outside, considering how to teach these people a lesson and ensure they wouldn’t bother him again.
