From Jiangnan City to the place where his old man lives, it also takes some time, and the trouble is—there is no direct route.

So, Ren Feng needs to take a train first, then transfer to a bus, and finally head into the mountains.

The mountain is called Fucheng Mountain, a sprawling mountain in the Jiangnan area with exceptionally well-preserved ecology, and the villages in the mountains seem like a world apart from the outside.

At the moment, on the train.

Ren Feng sits by the aisle, frowning in thought.

He's thinking about who is behind Laine, recalling the members of the team, but coming up empty.

Ren Feng's team is not large, with only a dozen or so members, but each of them is elite, and they are usually like brothers and sisters, so for Ren Feng to guess who that person might be is difficult.

Rubbing his temples, Ren Feng feels a bit of a headache and simply closes his eyes to rest; he still has a long way to go before reaching his destination.

Next to Ren Feng sits a girl. This girl is quite delicately pretty, exuding a youthful aura.

Sitting across from Ren Feng is a man around thirty, not old, but not particularly young either.

His gaze frequently shifts to the girl, feeling a stir of interest.

This chick isn't bad, probably a student, should be easy to fool.

The man makes up his mind and then gives the girl a slight smile: "Hello."

The girl is taken aback, glancing at the man, and seeing the smile on his face and that he is not ugly, a hint of shyness passes over her face.

"Hello."

The girl says softly.

"Where are you heading? Maybe we're going the same way." The man says with a smile.

"Linjiang City." The girl replies.

The capital of Jiangnan Province is Jiangnan City, while Linjiang City is a prefecture-level city in a neighboring province.

"What a coincidence, I happen to be going to Linjiang City too." The man's face is full of smiles.

"Really?" The girl is evidently a bit surprised.

"Of course, hey, I haven't introduced myself yet, my name is Fang Shaojie." The man holds out his hand.

The girl extends her hand: "Xv Qiu."

Listening to their conversation, Ren Feng remains with his eyes closed, just shaking his head inwardly: Girl, do you really believe such a low-level lie?

This man is definitely not going to Linjiang City. As far as men are concerned, if they're pursuing a girl, anywhere is on the way.

Of course, this also shows that the girl next to him is a bit naive, likely a student, because only a student would be so easy to fool, uh, no, I mean the most innocent.

"What are you going to Linjiang for?" Fang Shaojie asks.

"For an interview." Xv Qiu, no longer reserved, says with a slight smile: "I'm about to graduate, so I want to apply at Lijiang Middle School."

"A teacher?" Fang Shaojie laughs, "What a coincidence, I happen to know the principal of Jiangnan Middle School. Do you want me to put in a word for you to teach at Jiangnan Middle School?"

"Really?" Xv Qiu's eyes light up, Jiangnan Middle School is much better than Lijiang Middle School.

"Naturally." Fang Shaojie pats his chest, "Although I'm just in small businesses, I do have a wide network. Just last night, I had drinks with the director of the education bureau."

Hearing this, Xv Qiu's eyes show a trace of admiration.

Fang Shaojie's heart swells with pride, thinking this type of girl is the easiest to fool.

At this moment, Fang Shaojie notices Ren Feng opening his eyes, a thought crosses his mind, and he smiles slightly: "Brother, what's your surname?"

Ren Feng glances at him and says indifferently: "Surname Ren."

"Mr. Ren, what kind of work do you do?"

Ren Feng responds casually: "No job."

Fang Shaojie continues enthusiastically: "Oh, brother, you must be unemployed, don't worry, these days the financial crisis pressure is high, unemployment is normal, I recently heard on the news that a large number of workers are unemployed. But you probably haven't found a job yet, I happen to know someone who runs a construction company, I could introduce you, there's no problem with moving bricks."

Fang Shaojie wears a smile, but in his heart, he looks down on Ren Feng immensely, yet Xv Qiu's admiration visibly increases.

Ren Feng narrows his eyes; he understands what this person is up to, but bringing him down to flirt with a girl and dragging him into it is just intolerable.

Ren Feng's face breaks into a smile as he points a finger at Xv Qiu: "You're trying to pick her up?"

"Ah?" Fang Shaojie's face still holds a smile, but he's suddenly stunned, not expecting Ren Feng to ask so directly.

Beside them, Xv Qiu's face turns an impossibly bright red, the pink spreading from her face to her neck.

Fang Shaojie is awkwardly looking at Ren Feng, but suddenly Ren Feng's expression turns icy cold: "What the hell do you think you're dragging me in for while you're trying to pick up chicks? Who do you think you are? Using my poverty to highlight your wealth? Using my handsome face to contrast your pig face?

You've got a round face like a football, believe it or not, I'll smack your size 40 face with a size 39 shoe? Is your own insecurity so bad you try to find confidence from me? Who do you think you are? Keep showing off in front of me, and I'll bury you in cash in no time!"

A tirade of insults delivered, Fang Shaojie's face turns pig-liver red, his hands trembling in anger as if livid.

Xv Qiu stands there with her mouth agape, shocked, and the surrounding passengers are also dumbfounded: Damn, this guy's mouth is sharp.

"Bravo!"

But all of a sudden, someone loudly applauds, as bystanders watching the fun are never afraid of escalating situations.

"You, you…" Fang Shaojie points at Ren Feng furiously, seeming almost overwhelmed: "How could you behave so rudely?"

"Rudeness?" Ren Feng lets out a cold laugh, "You wet the bed at five, peeked at the neighbor's sister bathing at ten, learned to call hookers at sixteen, were involved in a hundred flings by twenty, and made nothing of yourself by thirty, yet still all you do is trick young girls. And you talk to me about rudeness? You piece of garbage!"

Cold sweat breaks out on Fang Shaojie's forehead as he glares at Ren Feng: "You, you're lying!"

"I'm lying?" Ren Feng says calmly: "Take a look at your ticket, and you'll see you're not even going to Linjiang, you said it's on your way just for picking her up!"

At this, cold sweat trickles down Fang Shaojie's face, and he forcibly argues: "What does it matter whether I'm going to Linjiang or not?"

"Didn't you say just now you're also going to Linjiang?" Ren Feng looks at Xv Qiu, "Am I wrong?"

Xv Qiu nodded, and the people around started jeering: "Show the ticket, show the ticket."

Amidst the crowd's coaxing, Fang Shaojie doesn't dare to stay any longer and slinks off to another train compartment.

The surrounding people cast amazed glances at Ren Feng—how did he know Fang Shaojie's ticket wasn't for Linjiang?

Xv Qiu also looks at Ren Feng in astonishment, but Ren Feng calmly closes his eyes again.

Just earlier, he noticed something different after running his True Qi; when he focused it in his eyes, he could see through things.

That's how he saw that Fang Shaojie's ticket wasn't for Linjiang.

But before this, when he used True Qi, he couldn't see through anything. Apart from focusing on his eyes, he found that when True Qi gathered in his limbs, it felt distinctly sharper, more sensitive than before.

What's really going on?

Ren Feng closes his eyes deep in thought, but after a while, he can only wait to consult with his old man about it.
