Chapter 1787 (2/2)
”Ding … …”
As he was speaking, Ji Feng's phone suddenly rang. He took it out and saw that it was Ji Yu.
Ji Feng raised his eyebrows as he guessed the purpose of Ji Yu's call.
He answered the phone. ”h.e.l.lo, Jade?”
Ji Yu's voice came from the other side of the phone: ”Ji Feng, do you have time to come out for a meal?”
Ji Feng smiled, ”You're in such a hurry? Didn't you say that you'd treat me to a meal when I have time to spare? ”
”Ji Feng, to be honest, I have urgent business with you.” Ji Yu's tone was filled with unconcealable anxiety, and said: ”Can you come out to meet me? I won't hold you up for too long! ”
”This...” Ji Feng muttered to himself. Ji Yu had finally lost his patience.
Thinking for a moment, Ji Feng nodded his head. ”Fine, but let me explain first, I really don't have much time left today...”
Ji Yu immediately said: ”I won't take up too much of your time. Where are you? I'll go find you.”
Ji Feng smiled and gave him an address. It was a leisure plaza not too far away from Ji Nanyue's villa. During the day, Chu Yue brought him there. There weren't many people there and it was more convenient to talk to him.
Ji Yu immediately said: ”I will immediately go, stay in touch!”
Withdrawing his thread, Ji Feng shook his head and smiled. It seemed that Ji Yu was under quite a lot of pressure.
Ever since Li Guoliang told Ji Feng about the situation outside, Ji Feng knew that the Bamboo Gang must have taken on a lot of pressure. Almost all the important figures of the big gangs were killed, and only the Bamboo Gang, Qing Gang and a few other gangs remained safe and sound.
As for the bamboo a.s.sociation, they took advantage of the moment when the Shankou gang was annihilated to seize the Shankou gang's territory, reaping great benefits. This made the other gangs even more suspicious.
Thus, the Bamboo Alliance was pushed into the limelight.
In fact, when Ji Feng heard the news, he was stunned for quite a while before he shook his head with a bitter smile. This time, the Bamboo Alliance had truly suffered from an unexpected calamity.
The Zhuan Alliance did not target the Widal Corporation. In addition to the relations.h.i.+p between Ji Yu and Ji Feng, it was impossible for him to lay his hands on the Zhuan Alliance. There was no reason for him to do so!
However, he had not expected that just because of this point, the Bamboo Gang would almost become the target of public criticism!
Ji Feng originally wanted to communicate with Ji Yu, but after some thought, he gave up on this idea. If he were to communicate with Ji Yu just like that, wouldn't that mean he would directly tell her, ”I was the one who did all the things outside. I'm really sorry for implicating you!”
Regardless of whether or not Ji Yu guessed that it was him, Ji Feng would not take the initiative to admit it. His relations.h.i.+p with Ji Yu had yet to reach that step!
Moreover, from a different perspective, this matter would at most place the Bamboo Alliance under a certain level of pressure, but it wouldn't cause any great loss. With this incident, he could instead remind the Bamboo Alliance to keep a low profile even if they were to occupy the territory of the Shankou gang.
At the same time, from the reaction of the outside world, Ji Feng came up with a new idea.
Now that Ji Yu had called, it was a good timing.
Not even an hour after the call, Ji Yu called again, stating that they had arrived at the agreed location.
Ji Feng couldn't help but shake his head with a smile.
He rushed over with the white spider and saw Ji Yu standing beside a car. Ji Yu was walking back and forth anxiously. Next to her, Addie was looking around.
”Jade!”
Ji Feng smiled as he walked over. ”You came very quickly.”
Ji Yu opened the door and said, ”Should we talk inside the car or find a place to sit?”
Ji Feng laughed, ”It's too stuffy inside the car. Let's talk while we walk.” There aren't many people here anyways, so it's a good place to talk. ”
Because it was already late winter, a cold wind blew across the plaza from time to time. There were very few people staying in the originally lively plaza, so there was no need to worry about anyone eavesdropping.
Ji Yu slightly nodded and said, ”Alright.”
Ji Feng smiled and made a inviting gesture. Ji Yu was just about to raise his foot, when Adai suddenly said, ”Eldest Miss, I want to follow by your side. I won't be able to rest easy if you go by yourself!”
Ji Feng frowned slightly, but he did not say anything.
Ji Yu said, ”What's there to worry about? You can stay here. It's fine.”
However, Adai said, ”That won't do, Miss. I must consider your safety. I can't let someone with unknown motives be alone with you!”
With that, he pointed at Ji Feng and said, ”Miss, this person is very likely related to everything that has happened recently. We have to be careful of him!”
Swis.h.!.+
The spider's face darkened, and a cold light flickered in its eyes. Adai's actions, his demeanor, was clearly an insult to Ji Feng!
