70: Chapter 69 Trade Secrets, Lin Feng Saved Me

The entrance to Xiyangyang Private Kitchen was crowded with people.

A dozen or so electric scooters were parked at the entrance in an orderly fashion.

The owner's face was beaming with joy; ever since he joined the food delivery platform, he had been earning more and more money.

Yet, he felt less tired than before.

Seeing Lin Feng and Wang Jun arrive, he was so excited.

"Boss Lin, I thought I wouldn't be able to see you again."

"With the food here tasting so good, how could I not come back?"

"Sigh, you're different now."

"It's all the same, just with more money than before, so I can alternate between delicacies and simple meals."

"Come on, let's go sit in a private room upstairs."

"This... there are only two of us."

"People are just here for lunch, no one is drinking, the private rooms are all empty. It's fine, just take one."

Some of the riders at the entrance were students from Shen University, and they recognized Lin Feng at a glance.

"Holy crap, that guy is Lin Feng, the founder of Fengda."

"I've seen him in person. Is he really just a sophomore?"

"Absolutely true. I'm also a student at Shen University. His presence was zero during his freshman year, but he suddenly exploded in his sophomore year."

"The main thing is that he's an arts student, from the Literature Department, yet he's so fierce in business."

"Ever since the food delivery platform started, I registered as a rider and I'm no longer afraid of not having money to eat at the end of the month."

"Have you guys checked the website? They just launched an errand service, and that pays even more."

"Right, the errand fee for ten kilometers starts at 25 yuan. The company's commission is the same as the delivery fee, and customers can also tip, which the company doesn't take a cut of."

"I saw the flyer too. I'll try it tonight to see if I can pick up orders in the task hall."

Entering the private room, Lin Feng ordered a few signature dishes and asked the owner to bring a bottle of Wuliangye. After opening it, he poured a glass for Wang Jun.

"Cheers..."

The two drained their glasses in one go, a flash of grimace crossing Wang Jun's face.

"Uh... can't you drink?"

"I usually drink more red wine."

Lin Feng smiled without saying anything extra; red wine was the standard accessory for high-society socializing.

In reality, it was just grape juice with alcohol added; how could it be better than baijiu?

"Lin Feng, how did you come up with the idea for food delivery? And now you're doing second-hand trading and errands. The average person wouldn't think of this."

"This kind of thinking is at least 10 years ahead of its time. It's a pity our family doesn't do e-commerce."

No one in the industry thought much of it, but those outside saw its value immediately.

The saying "the onlooker sees most clearly" continues to prove its worth.

Unfortunately, even if he were to identify his parents, they couldn't possibly know his secret of being reborn.

"Wang Jun, we are friends. You just need to know that I won't harm you."

He was stunned, glanced at Lin Feng, and gave a bitter smile.

"Sigh, it seems I was being rash. My dad told me not to get to the bottom of things. I was too hasty."

"Wang Jun, don't misunderstand. There are some business secrets I really can't disclose, including matters regarding the stock market."

Lin Feng's sense of mystery was pushed to the extreme. If Wang Jun's aura had been stronger than Lin Feng's before, the situation was now reversed.

He felt as if there was an impenetrable mist around Lin Feng, and this mist gave Lin Feng's identity a kind of inviolable buff.

Being able to predict the stock market and having such an advanced business mind—these things simply didn't belong to a young man in his early twenties.

Unless...

Wang Jun's heart skipped a beat, and a terrifying thought popped into his mind.

Standing at his level, it seemed that only that kind of identity could cause such emotional fluctuations in Wang Jun.

[The rich second generation, currently trying to fathom your identity, is shocked by mistakenly identifying you as a person from the Heavenly Palace.]

Lin Feng chuckled inwardly; this was good, it would save quite a bit of trouble.

Wang Jun was relieved in an instant. He let out a breath of stale air and smiled, "That's right, everyone has secrets. Besides, the business world is like a battlefield. Then, I wish you rolling wealth and success soon."

"Thanks, cheers."

The meal didn't end until 2 PM.

After the half-drunk Wang Jun was picked up by his driver, Lin Feng hailed a taxi and headed straight for Tian Xue's home.

It was the weekend, and Tian Xue was off. Lin Feng planned to find her and relax.

At 10 PM, having slept for 8 hours, Wang Jun sat up in bed.

Outside the window, it was windy and rainy. The strong wind made the glass windows rattle, and the bedroom door was being pounded on.

He had drunk too much in the afternoon, so he had slept soundly.

"Xiao Jun, Xiao Jun, open the door quickly."

There was an urgent urging sound from outside the door.

Wang Jun's consciousness gradually cleared. He put on his pajamas and got up to open the door.

"Secretary Chen? Why are you here?"

"Something happened at the construction site."

This sentence gave Wang Jun a fright, and his remaining drunkenness completely vanished.

He asked nervously, "What happened at the construction site?"

"Half an hour ago, the weather changed suddenly, and there was severe convective weather. The building on the south side of the construction site collapsed."

"Were there any casualties?"

Wang Jun's heart leaped into his throat, his expression tense.

"The fortunate thing in the misfortune is that it's good you called this afternoon and had the construction site undergo a safety inspection."

"Originally, there were many unsecured steel pipes and cement slabs placed on that building. We cleared them in advance; otherwise, the consequences would have been unimaginable."

"No one was hurt?"

Secretary Chen shook his head, still feeling lingering fear, "There were indeed a few people working below at the time, but the area of the wall that collapsed was not large, so they weren't affected."

"If those cement slabs and metal building materials hadn't been moved this afternoon, the consequences would have been unimaginable."

Wang Jun swallowed hard, and the scene of drinking with Lin Feng in the private room that afternoon surfaced.

If it hadn't been for his reminder, if he hadn't taken it seriously, then now...

He shuddered, breaking out in a cold sweat, not daring to think further.

This mysterious roommate not only had an unfathomable background, but his personal ability also inspired awe.

"Xiao Jun, Xiao Jun, you did well. Construction site safety is of the utmost importance. I heard you arranged a safety inspection this afternoon. That was close; we escaped a disaster."

Outside the door, Wang Jianyun walked over quickly, his face unable to suppress his excitement.

His son arranging the inspection in advance was a sign of maturity.

And he had successfully avoided a disaster. This way, not only could he stabilize his position as chairman, but it would also add points for Wang Jun.

In the future, handing the group over to Wang Jun would also lead to less gossip.

Power struggles in wealthy families have always been cruel; if you don't perform well enough, you'll be kicked out in a minute.

Wang Jun looked at his father, a bitter smile appearing on his face. He said helplessly, "Dad, it's good that everything is fine, but we have to thank Lin Feng for this."

"Lin Feng? That roommate of yours?"

Wang Jianyun looked puzzled. Although Lin Feng was outstanding, what did he have to do with this matter?

"Dad, it was he who reminded me to conduct the safety inspection, and he also warned me about the severe convective weather tonight and to make sure to check the safety of objects placed at heights."

...

Wang Jianyun was stunned. Was it just a coincidence, good luck, or did Lin Feng really have such safety awareness?

It seemed that his son getting closer to this somewhat mysterious roommate wasn't a bad thing.

"Big brother, Xiao Jun, something happened at the construction site, and you're still here chatting? Aren't you going to take a look?"

Wang Jiancheng walked over, looking anxious, but anyone with eyes could see that his expression was as fake as could be.
