Chapter 43 Sooner or Later I'll Conquer the She-Devil
"Which gentleman swiped the card just now?"
The middle-aged store manager hurried in and asked urgently.
"It was..."
Before the female salesperson could finish, Gu Lili immediately spoke up.
"You must be the store manager, right? You've come at just the right time."
She pointed at Qin Feng and seized the opportunity to say, "This man beat up a diamond member of your store, and even snatched the clothes we had our eyes on. Why don't you have people take him down immediately?"
The middle-aged manager was momentarily stunned, then looked over at Qin Feng.
The other party was still holding that card with the black dragon pattern.
Instantly, the manager's pupils contracted sharply. His legs went weak, and his instincts almost made him drop to his knees before this person.
Seeing this, Gu Lili persisted relentlessly. "I said, what are you standing there dazed for? I'll give you one minute. If you don't take this person down right now, we will never buy a single piece of clothing from your store again."
"Slap!"
Almost instantly, the middle-aged manager raised his hand and delivered a fierce slap across Gu Lili's face, shouting angrily, "You damn woman, shut your trap right now!"
Not only did this slap knock out two of Gu Lili's teeth, but it also left her completely bewildered and stunned.
"You... how dare you hit me?"
Gu Lili grabbed Qiao Sen's arm and said with grievance, "Honey..."
Qiao Sen's expression turned ugly.
His woman had been beaten repeatedly; where was his face and dignity supposed to go?
Besides, he was a diamond member of this store.
"Manager, I need an explanation."
"Is this how you treat your diamond members?"
Qiao Sen brandished his membership card and demanded aggressively.
Little did he know.
The middle-aged manager didn't even spare him a glance.
What the hell was a diamond member?
Only he knew what kind of identity was held by someone possessing the Black Gold Dragon Card.
That was the only black card in the entire world issued by the Wolong Bank, universally accepted globally, with an unlimited credit limit that regular card readers couldn't even recognize.
Yet, the moment any transaction was made with it, a transaction record would be generated in the banking system. Just moments ago, the largest domestic bank had called to inform him that the owner of the Black Gold Dragon Card was making a purchase inside his store.
Therefore, he had rushed over without stopping to catch his breath.
You must know that the last time the Black Gold Dragon Card had appeared in the world was several years ago, and the owner of this card could only be the creator of the Wolong Bank and the master of the gathering of all worldly powers under the underworld—Lord Underworld.
"My... My Lord..."
"Please forgive your lowly servant for arriving late."
"I will throw these people out right away."
The middle-aged manager said tremblingly to Qin Feng.
Qin Feng glanced at him and said indifferently, "You arrived quite fast, beyond my expectations."
"Yes..." The manager was already breaking out in a cold sweat of terror.
***
Qin Feng then looked at the dumbfounded Gu Lili and Qiao Sen, his tone indifferent:
"What were you saying just now? If these clothes belonged to me, one of you would kneel down and apologize, and the other would eat shit."
"So, please begin."
Gu Lili and Qiao Sen exchanged glances, their faces turning pale.
They never imagined why the store manager would stand on Qin Feng's side when they were clearly the diamond members.
"Manager, you must have made a mistake, right?" Qiao Sen asked, refusing to give up.
"Make a mistake your grandpa's ass!"
"Lord commanded you to kneel and eat shit, do you not understand human speech?"
"Or do you need me to send people to help you along?"
Seeing the manager acting aggressively and summoning a large group of security guards, Gu Lili and Qiao Sen felt their hearts turn to ash...
"I... I'm sorry..."
Gu Lili knelt down and apologized to Qin Feng and the others.
"Your voice is too soft, I can't hear you." Qin Feng was not buying it.
"I'm sorry, it was my fault. Miss Xu, Mr. Qin, please forgive us."
Gu Lili buried her head very low.
Even though she felt humiliated, she had no other choice.
Xu Banxia was already too shocked to speak.
In less than five full minutes.
The situation had undergone such a dramatic reversal. What on earth was going on here?
Xu Banxia looked at Qin Feng with a head full of bewilderment, unable to figure out how the latter had managed to pull this off.
"What are you standing around for?"
"The restroom is on the east side, go eat!"
When the middle-aged manager saw Qiao Sen lingering and refusing to move, he directly ordered his men, "Drag him out, let him eat his fill and eat to his heart's content!"
"No, you can't treat me like this! I'm a diamond member of this store, why are you treating me this way?" Qiao Sen was carried away by the security guards, his face filled with reluctance and grievance.
"My Lord, the clothes have been packed for you."
The manager turned back and respectfully handed the suit over to Qin Feng.
Qin Feng took it and waved to the dazed Xu Banxia, "Director Xu, let's go."
"Oh... right."
Xu Banxia snapped back to her senses and followed Qin Feng out of the shopping mall.
***
Outside the mall entrance.
Xu Banxia could no longer hold it in, feeling like a curious child: "Qin Feng, how on earth did you pull that off?"
"Heavenly secrets cannot be divulged." Qin Feng chuckled.
"Tsk, as if anyone cares to know." Xu Banxia scoffed.
She just couldn't stand his smug look.
"Starting from tomorrow, work overtime one day every weekend to make up for the leave you took previously."
"If you don't show up, it will be treated as an unexcused absence."
After saying that, Xu Banxia got into her car and drove away directly.
Qin Feng's eyes widened in disbelief: "You female devil, you're abusing your power for personal revenge!"
When a higher official crushes you by a rank, it's fatal.
Damn it!
Sooner or later, I'll be the one crushing you!
Thinking this with lingering resentment, Qin Feng returned to the mall to pick out underwear for Lan Fang...
***
On the other side.
Within the Li family residence.
Inside the luxurious and opulent hall, Li Ao suddenly smashed his teacup onto the floor, cursing angrily, "Trash! A bunch of trash!"
"You couldn't even manage to kill a single person, what else are you good for?"
Standing before him, Sun Zihang was recounting every single word of the message Qin Feng had sent back, without missing a beat.
"Young Master Li, please calm your anger!"
"This matter really can't be blamed entirely on me. Who could have expected that guy Breaking Army to act like a brain-damaged fool and actually commit suicide in public?"
"I beg you to give me one more chance, and I will definitely get the job done right."
Sun Zihang dropped to his knees and pleaded.
"Give you another chance?"
Li Ao sneered coldly and asked, "What good ideas do you have?"
"It's like this."
Sun Zihang said slowly, "That brat is full of weird tricks. We don't necessarily have to target him directly; we can start with the people around him first."
"Oh?" Li Ao's eyes flashed.
"That Song family heiress, Song Yuting, is very close to this guy, and she recently gained massive momentum by securing investment from the Wolong Bank. We can start with her first, using that to find the brat's soft spot and take him down in one fell swoop."
"Go on." Li Ao's interest was piqued. He knew about Song Yuting; she was rumored to be a rare and exceptional beauty.
"It will require wronging Young Master Li a bit. Please send a betrothal gift to the Song family under the pretext of marrying Song Yuting, and the Song family will definitely agree."
"That way, the Song family is bound to come into conflict with that brat, and everyone knows the Song family miss has a deeply intertwined relationship with Qin Feng."
"Then I will have people Photoshop some indecent photos of that brat to ruin his ability to work normally at the hospital. Multiple troubles will throw him off balance, and when his mind is in complete chaos, finding an assassin to take him out will be as easy as pie."
Sun Zihang said with a sinister smile.
"You've certainly learned your Thirty-Six Stratagems quite well."
"We'll do just as you said."
Li Ao nodded in agreement.
