Chapter 152: Ye Feng Challenges Five
Chapter 152: Ye Feng Takes on Five
Hearing Chen Liang's words, Ye Feng's heart skipped a beat. Judging from Chen Liang's description, the perpetrators must be professionals; otherwise, they wouldn't have acted so swiftly without leaving a single trace. It was clearly not a simple matter. After a moment of thought, Ye Feng said, "President Chen, I have an idea!"
"Oh, Mr. Ye, please go ahead and share it!" Chen Liang had been waiting for Ye Feng to speak, and now that he finally did, anticipation filled his heart. Chen Liang couldn't quite explain why, but he held a deep admiration for this young man—first because of the powerful aura he exuded, and later because he completely disregarded his high-salary offer. Both instances had left a profound impact on Chen Liang.
"Well, judging by what President Chen just said, the other party must have planned this in advance, and their skills are quite formidable. I suspect this is the work of some professional killer organization. Therefore, I propose this: I will escort President Huang to and from work, and then I will come here to protect you. I wonder what President Chen thinks of this arrangement?" After all, Chen Liang could not afford to suffer any mishaps right now. If anything were to happen to him, it wouldn't just cause economic losses for the Huang Group; it would also deal a massive blow to the company's reputation.
"That's a wonderful idea! I'm completely in favor of it, but I'm not sure if President Huang has any objections," Chen Liang asked with a faint smile. After all, since Ye Feng had already declared his intention to follow Huang Shan, how could he possibly have the nerve to take someone else's man? Besides, trusting his own judgment, Chen Liang believed that the relationship between Huang Shan and Ye Feng was far from ordinary.
"Of course I have no problem with that. President Chen's safety is of the utmost importance. President Chen can take this period to observe and evaluate us, and once the time is right, we can proceed with signing the contract!" Huang Shan said with a radiant smile. She hadn't expected Chen Liang to value Ye Feng so highly, but Ye Feng's abilities were indeed superior to those of Chu Yun and the others.
"Very well, everything will follow President Huang's arrangements. For all the security work moving forward, I must thank Mr. Ye and Mr. Chu for your hard work!" Chen Liang smiled slightly. However, toward this formidable businesswoman of the Huang Group, a sliver of admiration welled up in his heart. She truly was a heroine among women—decisive in her actions and magnanimous in her style—which quietly solidified a certain decision in Chen Liang's mind.
"President Chen, I'm afraid this won't do!" One of the bodyguards stepped forward in objection. If it were someone from Xingfeng Security Company, he might have accepted it, but how could he submit to a wet-behind-the-ears kid like this? Judging by his appearance, he was only in his early twenties with fair, tender skin—where was a bodyguard's demeanor? He looked more like a kept man.
"Oh? Do you gentlemen believe you are more formidable than Mr. Ye?" Chen Liang retorted. In truth, Chen Liang was quite eager to witness Ye Feng's abilities himself. Although he had always sensed that Ye Feng was extraordinary, he had yet to see just how powerful the young man truly was, making this the perfect opportunity to find out.
"We... we refuse to accept this!" the bodyguard said with evident displeasure. Ye Feng merely smiled faintly. It seemed he needed to display a bit of his prowess; otherwise, these men would never submit. He pointed at the five bodyguards and said, "All five of you, come at me together. If you can knock me down, I will consider myself defeated."
The five men exchanged glances. Had this kid lost his mind? To utter such an arrogant boast made anger flare up in their chests. Hearing this, Chen Liang was equally stunned. He had originally thought Ye Feng would spar with two or three of them at most, but to challenge all five bodyguards in a direct one-on-many brawl completely shattered his expectations.
Huang Shan, sitting on the side, appeared much calmer. She held a great deal of confidence in Ye Feng's strength; a few men were simply no match for him. Of course, deep down, she still hoped Ye Feng wouldn't get hurt. As for Chu Yun and the others, they watched with looks of eager anticipation. Big Brother Feng was about to make a move—what kind of techniques would he use? Everyone began to guess excitedly.
"You may begin!" Ye Feng stood rooted to the spot, speaking in a calm tone. Although the five men were emitting a certain aura, Ye Feng felt not the slightest concern. While an aura could often represent a person's strength, there was also a state where someone who had trained to a certain level could completely conceal their presence—as the saying goes, a true master hides his depth within, while a novice flaunts his arrogance on the outside.
The five men rejoiced inwardly. *Damn it, after being humiliated by those guys earlier, if we team up now, we're definitely going to crush this punk! So what if he looks a little handsome? What's so great about that?* The five of them lunged forward simultaneously. Determined to establish his authority, Ye Feng no longer held back.
With palms flying horizontally through the air, Chen Liang was left dumbfounded. *Good heavens, what is happening?* Xingfeng Security Company had already given him a massive shock earlier, but now Ye Feng's display completely terrified him. Chu Yun, Liu Zhenhua, and Wang An were equally petrified. *Heavens, what is Big Brother Feng doing?*
Ye Feng's palm strikes were blindingly fast. Before the five men could even register the movement, they were each struck squarely in the chest. At the same time, Ye Feng pressed downward with his hand, instantly making them feel a suffocating pressure. Following a swift counter-attack, the five bodies were sent crashing violently to the ground.
Within mere minutes, Ye Feng had laid out all five opponents. Spontaneous applause erupted from the onlookers, especially from Chen Liang, whose heart overflowed with pleasant surprise. It turned out his judgment had been spot on; he had seen right away that Ye Feng was extraordinary. Ye Feng had now proven his exceptional worth to Chen Liang.
"Mr. Ye is truly a hidden master—truly remarkable! I am convinced that with Mr. Ye protecting me, any and all problems will cease to be problems," Chen Liang said with a beaming smile. He had encountered far too many pleasant surprises today, and he was now confident enough to call his headquarters and tell them not to send anyone else. With Ye Feng protecting him, there was nothing left to worry about.
"President Chen flatters me. Actually, your bodyguards are quite capable as well. However, moving forward, we will need your bodyguards to fully cooperate with our work and follow our instructions entirely. Can President Chen agree to this?" Ye Feng asked with a faint smile. After all, full cooperation from Chen Liang's side was essential for him to carry out his duties effectively.
Hearing this, the bodyguards felt a sudden surge of goodwill toward Ye Feng. After all, the kid possessed genuine skill and knew how to speak tactfully, which greatly improved their impression of him. Hearing Ye Feng's request, Chen Liang thought for a moment and readily agreed, "Very well, Mr. Ye. From this moment on, I entrust my life and livelihood entirely to your hands!"
"Haha, President Chen, rest easy. As long as we are here, no harm will ever come to you!" Ye Feng promised with a slight, confident smile. It seemed the provincial capital was about to lose its peace. *Damn it, I'd actually love to see what kind of person dares to play tricks behind the scenes.*
