While it was only a possibility, it was still something Feng Nan could not accept. He wanted to strike once and bury Qin Fang, to relentlessly crush him into the ground under his foot...

Feng Nan was even fantasizing about making Qin Fang kneel before him, weeping and crying, calling him "grandfather" while begging for mercy.

Brother Junhao was a sharp observer; he had been around Feng Nan long enough to understand his pettiness. How could he not be aware of it?

In fact, anyone who was involved in Ninghai's circles, more or less, knew about Feng Nan's pettiness, which is why people usually hesitated to interact with him. Even those who had to interact with him out of necessity would flatter him non-stop, aligning their words with his because every sentence had to be carefully considered several times to avoid any mishaps.

For someone like Brother Junhao, who was familiar with Feng Nan, he not only knew what topics were taboo for Feng Nan but also knew how to speak in a way that would make Feng Nan even more furious without implicating himself.

"Hmph, there aren't many people in Ninghai who dare to speak to me like this..."

As expected, stimulated by Brother Junhao, an already enraged Feng Nan became utterly uncontrollable, his handsome face twisting into something utterly ferocious, and the rage in his eyes gradually turned into a venomous flame.

This guy was known for playing dirty; it was rare for him to confront someone openly. But when that look appeared in his eyes, those familiar with him knew he had a plan.

Naturally, Brother Junhao noticed this. A glint of ruthlessness flashed in his eyes as he watched the direction in which Qin Fang, barely visible now, was leaving, and the corners of his mouth couldn't help but curl into a malevolent smile.

"If you're seeking your own death, then you can't blame me..."

Brother Junhao had already mourned for Qin Fang in his heart; he knew all too well how vicious Feng Nan's underhanded tactics could be, and being targeted by him was no good thing.

...

It didn't take long for Qin Fang and his group to arrive at the Number Seven Hot Spring Pool, with Xiao Tang and the other two following behind. As for the beautiful server, she really wanted to take back the room card, but Xiao Gu, who was last in line, gave her a fierce glare, immediately frightening her into hurriedly fleeing back.

In her eyes, Qin Fang seemed more approachable, but Xiao Gu was undoubtedly the most intimidating. She didn't get a chance to speak with Qin Fang before being scared off by Xiao Gu.

In fact, even if she had managed to talk to him, Qin Fang wouldn't have given up the room card. After going this far, if he returned the card, wouldn't it be like slapping his own face and delighting Feng Nan even more?

Such foolishness was not something Qin Fang would do.

So Xiao Gu's mere action not only saved Qin Fang from reprimanding him but also resolved a minor annoyance for him. Qin Fang didn't want to trouble the server, but he couldn't compromise with Feng Nan in the slightest.

The Number Seven Hot Spring Pool was the largest of the twelve spring rooms, with a diameter of more than four meters, making it a fairly large pool that could comfortably accommodate a dozen people or more—only getting slightly crowded.

This hot spring room was like a standalone villa, with the pool situated inside the building. The ceiling was specially made, like a sports car's convertible top, remotely retractable. If desired, you could open the roof, effectively turning it into an open-air setting.

Of course, it was usually closed to retain the hot spring's warmth effectively. The room itself was equipped with a highly sophisticated ventilation system that automatically regulated the air, preventing any accidents.

Outside the hot spring pool, there were changing rooms, rest areas, and more. If guests had enough of soaking, they could rest there or even call over a masseuse for a massage... or even request some special services.

In any case, here you can enjoy the most luxurious of pleasures, an emperor's adoration and indulgence...

Of course, the premise is that you can afford such a hefty price... The hourly fee for such a private room is calculated in tens of thousands, especially for the biggest Number Seven Hot Spring Room, where the hourly fee reaches a staggering one hundred thousand.

In other words, to stay here for a day would cost enough to buy a luxury sports car...

But of course, such a trivial amount of money is nothing but a drop in the ocean for Ninghai's richest young master, Feng Nan, who deals in hundreds of thousands every minute...

Although Qin Fang did feel a bit heartache about the money being spent so quickly, he also had a fortune worth hundreds of millions and didn't frequently visit such places. An occasional splurge like this didn't bother him, especially since he had a strong ability to make money...

"Young Master Qin, this time you've really offended that Feng Nan badly... He's notorious for being petty, I'm afraid he's holding a grudge against you! He didn't follow up just now, I reckon he's already planning some dirty tricks..."

The four of them changed into their garments and entered the hot spring to soak together. The temperature wasn't very hot, at most it was like warm water, but just a slight soak made Qin Fang feel quite different.

Xiao Tang was frowning with worry, still concerned about Feng Nan's matter for Qin Fang. With Feng Nan's big and somewhat rotten reputation, they couldn't help but worry.

"No worries, I know what I'm doing..."

Qin Fang didn't seem to care at all, dismissing it with a light sentence, then he lay back in the hot spring, closing his eyes slightly to enjoy the comforting baptism of the spring water on his body.

"Exactly, what is there to be afraid of? So what if he, Feng Nan, has some dirty money? He's got a heart as small as the eye of a needle, pettier than a woman, getting worked up over such trivial issues! It's only because his father is still around. If the Haijiang Group really fell into his hands, I reckon it wouldn't last two or three years before going bankrupt..."

Xiao Tang was quite worried, Xiao Liang nearly the same, but Xiao Gu was quite dismissive as he made this comment. He had very little respect for Feng Nan, and while he couldn't afford to offend Feng Nan, such words would only be said here in private. Facing Feng Nan, he wouldn't dare to make a peep, all because Feng Nan was as petty as they come!

Though what Xiao Gu said made some sense, Feng Nan's personality ensured he would offend many people. Even if he were to run a company, it was likely he'd create countless enemies. With such pettiness, who would dare to work under him? Who knows how many would be forced to wear "small shoes" (receive petty treatment).

Furthermore, even though the Haijiang Group bore the Feng family name, it had many other shareholders. With Feng Nan's personality, he'd be fine as a dictator, but if he were running a board meeting, he would undoubtedly make all the shareholders despise him...

Speaking of which, it might indeed be possible for Feng Nan to easily run the company into the ground if Old Feng handed over the management to him... But that would be a matter for the future. Old Feng was only in his fifties and could still manage for many more years. Feng Nan wouldn't be able to control Haijiang Group anytime soon.

Not to mention, this was the Feng family's internal affair; it had nothing to do with them as outsiders.

"By the way, Young Master Qin, what did you mean by that phrase 'you're of the same generation as my son'?"

Xiao Gu suddenly remembered the statement Qin Fang had made earlier. After thinking about it for a while, he couldn't figure out its meaning and asked curiously.

"That phrase... Don't get mad when I say this! It's like you're the second generation of an official, he, Feng Nan, is the second generation rich, and I, all I make is mine alone, so at most I'm the first generation rich. My son would be the second generation rich... Same second generation, isn't that the same generation?"

When asked by Xiao Gu, Qin Fang just laughed and explained the sentence to them, immediately causing Xiao Tang and the others to look at each other with peculiar expressions, realizing that Qin Fang's statement had dragged them into it too...(To be continued.
