Chapter 4 Gathering

  A train rumbled into Shanghai Station, and Cheng Feng stood outside the station, holding a sign to pick up people, waiting to welcome three like-minded heroes. The time was so long that Cheng Feng was getting impatient. He muttered: "Why is time going by so slowly, damn it, it's almost noon, I'm starving!"

  Just then, Cheng Feng heard someone calling him: "Cheng Feng?" Cheng Feng raised his head and saw a sturdy man of about 27 or 28 years old standing in front of him. Cheng Feng smiled and said: "It's me! Let me guess, you must be Zhao Tie, right? I can tell it's you just by looking at your face!" Zhao Tie burst out laughing and said: "Haha, this is also a result of our military training! How come they haven't arrived yet?" Cheng Feng nodded and smiled, saying: "Soon, your arrival times are all about the same. Let's wait here for a bit!"

  Zhao Tied nodded and carefully looked up and down at Cheng Feng, then suddenly smiled. Cheng Feng was somewhat puzzled and looked himself up and down, his suit was perfectly pressed, his leather shoes were polished to a high shine, what's wrong with that?! Cheng Feng laughed: "Brother Zhao, what's wrong with me?"

  Zhao Tie shook his head and laughed, "I thought you were a rough and tough guy like me, but I didn't expect you to be so handsome! Haha!" Cheng Feng also burst out laughing and joked, "Haha, what can I do? My parents wanted me to be this handsome, I had no veto power!" The two of them laughed loudly.

  At this time, another young man walked over with a smile, wearing all white casual clothes, looking healthy and slightly majestic. Cheng Feng's eyes lit up, and he laughed: "Ling Ge?" "Cheng Feng?" Cheng Feng laughed loudly: "I knew you were a civil servant, otherwise how could you be so arrogant!" Ling Ge smiled awkwardly: "Can't help it, I'm from the Commercial Inspection Bureau, some habits have become second nature!" Cheng Feng and Zhao Tie burst out laughing.

  Cheng Fengdao said: "Let me introduce, Zhao Tie! We all know each other online!" Zhao Tie and Ling Ge were both generous and open-minded, after chatting for a few sentences they immediately became close like old friends.

  Look, it's already 12:30 and Yang Nan still hasn't shown up. Ling Ge said with some dissatisfaction: "Yang Nan is really something, he'll definitely get drunk a few cups later!" Just as the words fell, someone came running over, panting heavily, laughing loudly: "No need to force me to drink, just let me eat more dishes! Sorry, sorry everyone. The train was a bit late!" It turned out to be Yang Nan wearing camouflage military uniform, with dark skin and a robust physique, looking like a military enthusiast!

  Cheng Feng laughed and said, "You little rascal thinks you can play tricks on me? The door isn't even open yet, I'll deal with you later!" Then I introduced Ling Ge and Zhao Tie to Yang Nan. We were all die-hard hot-blooded youth, so we quickly became familiar with each other! Cheng Feng laughed and interrupted the conversation that was just getting interesting: "Enough, let's talk about it at the hotel later. You guys aren't hungry, but I'm starving!" Everyone burst out laughing. Cheng Feng said, "You all go wait by the road, I'll go get the car!" The three of them responded in unison and left first.

  Ling Ge and the others were waiting on the road, chatting and laughing, when a luxurious BMW sedan quietly stopped in front of them. Cheng Feng rolled down the window, looking at the three who were still somewhat stunned, and said with a smile: "What are you still standing there for? Hurry up and get in!"

  The three of them responded in unison and hastily got into the car. Ling Ge teased, "Wow, I knew you were rich, but I didn't think you were this rich! This BMW must be worth at least 70 or 80 million!" Cheng Feng smiled and said, "About that much." However, money isn't everything to us, is it?" Everyone's expression turned serious for a moment, and they nodded in agreement.

  Zhao Tie saw the atmosphere was a bit dull, and hastily said: "Haha, since Cheng Feng is so rich, we don't need to be polite with him later, let's just go all out and order, after all, it's not like us poor people are paying!" "Hehe!" The three of them burst into sly laughter. Cheng Feng also laughed and said: "Alright, I'm not afraid you'll eat too much, I'm only afraid you won't be able to finish!" "Tsk!" The three of them simultaneously raised their middle fingers, leaving Cheng Feng no choice but to smile wryly and rub his nose!

  When a group of people arrived at the 'Hongzi Chicken' hotel, Ling Ge was still okay, after all, because of his work, he often went to such high-end places. Yang Nan and Zhao Tie were a bit dizzy! Zhao Tie poked Cheng Feng's arm in surprise and whispered: "Brother, eating here for one meal will probably cost several hundred yuan!" Cheng Feng smiled and said: "Several hundred yuan? You can only eat in the hall! The elegant seats upstairs don't have thousands of yuan, you can't get out!" Zhao Tie and Yang Nan were shocked and stuck out their tongues.

  Cheng Feng led the group to the second floor's Lotus Pavilion private room, where a beautiful waitress hastily presented them with menus. Cheng Feng casually tossed the menus at the three of them and said with a smile: "The right to order is yours. Order whatever you want! Don't hold back for your brother's sake!" This time, life and death are uncertain, if we don't eat our fill, it would be unforgivable to heaven and earth, and unkind to ourselves!

  Zhao Tie and the three men opened the menu with a sly smile, and after taking a look, they couldn't help but roll their tongues: damn, there are hardly any dishes under 50, basically all over 100! However, the three of them knew that Cheng Feng was rich, so they boldly ordered, in one breath ordering more than a dozen seafood dishes, abalone, crab and whatnot, making the waiter's face light up with joy.

  "'Red Son Chicken' dishes are served quickly, and in a short while, more than half of them are ready. Cheng Feng smiled and said: 'What would you like to drink? White or red?' Zhao Tie puffed out his chest and said: 'Of course, we big guys will drink white!' Ling Ge's face changed as he said: 'Red wine, red wine!'"

  Zhao Tie grasped Ling Ge's neck: "You old masters drink red wine, and you really dare to say that!" Yang Nan also chimed in from behind: "Drink white wine, drink white wine!" Cheng Feng smiled and shook his head: "These three are indeed familiar with each other!" He said to the waiter: "Alright, bring us four two bottles of 52-degree Xifengjiu, and a bottle of the best Great Wall dry red wine!" The waiter nodded and left.

  In a short while, the wine was served, and the three of them immediately dug in with gusto, devouring everything on the table as if swept away by a whirlwind. The waiter watching from the side was stunned, and if Cheng Feng wasn't a regular here, he estimated that the waiter would have called security already, because the way these three were eating made it seem like they had never eaten before! Cheng Feng just smiled and told them to eat as much as they wanted, but for him, these dishes were old hat, and he didn't find them particularly tasty.

  Finally, they were full and satisfied. The three of them rubbed their round bellies, belched loudly, and let out a sigh of relief. Cheng Feng smiled and called the waitress over: "Miss, the bill please!" "The total is 2,540 yuan, thank you!" Cheng Feng casually swiped his credit card and paid without batting an eye. Zhao Tie and the others were shocked, their tongues hanging out in amazement: "Damn, one meal cost over 2,000 yuan, that's equivalent to our salary for a month or two!"

  Cheng Feng's villa was very large, so he brought the three of them back home. Then Cheng Feng carefully explained his plan and purpose to the three of them again, and seriously said: "This is a matter of life and death, it's still possible to quit now, you guys think about it carefully!"

  Zhao Tie didn't say a word, his face stern as he stretched out his right hand and said: "For China!" Ling Ge and Yang Nan didn't hesitate for a moment, stretching out their right hands to clasp Zhao Tie's. My heart surged with hot blood, I tightly grasped the three men's hands, four large hands instantly coming together to form a new Great Wall: "For China!"
