Chapter 095 【Decline of Martial Arts?】
by 我本瘋狂Hong Kong is one of the world's most developed places, so land prices are extremely high, especially in prime downtown locations, where the costs are astronomical. It can be said that anyone who owns property in Hong Kong's prime downtown area is undoubtedly wealthy.
At the top of the Wanda Group building in downtown Hong Kong, inside the chairman's office.
Zhou Jingming stood by the window, holding a cigar between his fingers, a vacant look on his face as he gazed at the distant sky.
Ever since learning that his son had been beaten so badly he was castrated and would spend the rest of his life in prison, Zhou Jingming had aged overnight.
His eye sockets were deeply sunken, his eyes bloodshot—he hadn't had a good night's sleep in days.
Initially, after hearing the news that his son would never get out of prison, Zhou Jingming planned to use his wealth to hire the best hitmen money could buy from around the world to kill Gu Feng and Qiao Gang.
Although he knew this could blow up in his face, he was willing to risk it all to avenge his son.
However, just as he was about to make his move, Xiang Tianhua learned of his intentions through special channels. Afterward, Xiang Tianhua set up a meeting with him.
Following the conversation with Xiang Tianhua, Zhou Jingming scrapped his plan to hire assassins.
Because Xiang Tianhua told him that once the Red Star Gang was destroyed, Gu Feng and Qiao Gang were as good as dead.
As a member of Hong Kong's high society, Zhou Jingming naturally knew Xiang Tianhua's status and influence. Although he didn't understand why Xiang Tianhua wanted to wait until after the Red Star Gang's downfall to deal with Gu Feng and Qiao Gang, he respected Xiang Tianhua's arrangement.
After all, he couldn't afford to offend Xiang Tianhua, and more importantly, with Xiang Tianhua taking action, Gu Feng and Qiao Gang's days were numbered.
Just now, Zhou Jingming called Xiang Tianhua again and received his reply: in three days, they would move against Gu Feng and Qiao Gang.
Xiang Tianhua's response excited him. Whenever he thought about Gu Feng and Qiao Gang—the ones who had ended his family line—leaving this world, he felt like laughing, a cold, bitter laugh.
Without realizing it, the cigar in his hand went out. He narrowed his eyes slightly, then abruptly snapped the cigar in half, muttering to himself, "You Gus and Qiaos, in three days, you'll end up just like this cigar!"
...
Over the past ten days, although the people sent by the Old Boss hadn't yet arrived in Hong Kong, Gu Feng learned from Qiao Gang that Thailand's Shui Lian Gang had sent a bunch of their top people to Hong Kong.
Upon hearing this news, Gu Feng immediately called the Old Boss, who told him that the people would arrive in Hong Kong the next day, which gave Gu Feng some relief.
Today was the 20th-anniversary celebration of Zifeng Middle School. Since morning, the campus had been decorated with colorful flags and banners, and even a giant inflatable balloon was set up at the entrance, the place buzzing with celebration.
In the afternoon, all classes were suspended as teachers and students prepared for the evening celebration ceremony.
Originally, as the homeroom teacher of Class 8, Grade 4, Gu Feng was responsible for his class's performance. However, Xu Qin assigned him a more important task: to go to the airport to welcome the visiting delegation from South Korea's San Yuan Middle School.
San Yuan Middle School is a well-known private school in South Korea, even considered an elite institution. Unlike Zifeng Middle School, all of San Yuan's students are young masters or young ladies from wealthy families.
Outside the airport terminal, Gu Feng wore an Armani suit personally chosen by Lin Jiaying, paired with a white shirt inside.
As the saying goes, clothes make the man, and a saddle makes the horse—this couldn't be more true.
Gu Feng naturally had a good physique, a natural-born clotheshorse. Wearing the brand-new Armani suit, he turned quite a few heads at the airport. This kept Xu Qin smiling all the way, as if the more attention her son-in-law received, the prouder she felt.
Since the San Yuan Middle School delegation was a key part of the celebration, Xu Qin wasn't taking any chances. Over a dozen school leaders accompanied her to the airport.
Soon, a group of teenagers walked out of the airport terminal. Each was fashionably dressed, exuding an air of nobility and arrogance.
As soon as they emerged, they caught the attention of many people outside the terminal. Some young girls even looked excited upon seeing these stylish boys.
Meanwhile, some men stared wide-eyed at the angelically beautiful girls.
However, if they knew that more than half of these boys and girls were artificially enhanced "beauties," they might have had a different reaction.
After the twenty-some students walked out, they gathered in a group, sneering at their surroundings while chatting among themselves.
Following them were the principal and teachers of San Yuan Middle School. Seeing them come out, Xu Qin immediately went up to meet them.
Compared to the students, San Yuan had sent only a few teachers: four teachers and one principal.
Among the five, Gu Feng's attention was drawn to a man with a crew cut.
The man was nearly 1.9 meters tall, with a robust build, broad shoulders, and a strong back. He wore a Taekwondo uniform with a black belt tied around his waist. Despite his sturdy physique, he walked with silent steps, as if treading on cotton, exceptionally agile—giving the impression of floating. His expression was cold, his dark eyes revealing a faint killing intent, his sharp gaze making it hard for others to meet his eyes.
Black belt, ninth dan?
This man has impressive leg skills.
Gu Feng thought to himself, about to look away, when the man suddenly narrowed his eyes and gave him a cold glance. Just as Gu Feng intended to avert his gaze, the man seemed to notice something and couldn't help but glance at Gu Feng's hands. The corner of his mouth twitched slightly into a contemptuous smile.
Meanwhile, Xu Qin was smiling as she conversed with the principal of San Yuan Middle School. The leaders from Zifeng Middle School behind her also put on their most ingratiating smiles, afraid of leaving a bad impression.
After a brief exchange, under Xu Qin's lead, the group left the airport terminal exit.
Staying in his place, Gu Feng walked at the very back of the group.
Behind him, the burly man was accompanied by three people, likely his students.
Noticing the curious looks from those around them directed at the man, one of the students said in Korean, "Teacher, everyone is looking at you!"
"Of course!" another student chimed in. "Teacher is a renowned Taekwondo master in our country. These Chinese people have probably never seen a real black belt expert!"
"Uncle Li is one of the top three experts in the country. These Chinese probably just find his outfit surprising and can't even gauge his true skill," a handsome young man about 1.8 meters tall beside the man sneered.
Clearly, his relationship with the man was special; unlike the other two students who called him "teacher," he addressed him as "Uncle Li."
In response to the students' praise, the man calmly said, "Although you three aren't my formal disciples, I've personally taught you Kung Fu. This competition may not hold much significance, but I don't want any of you to lose."
"Don't worry, Teacher, we will definitely win the match!"
"Uncle Li, didn't you say that Chinese martial arts have declined? With our skills, it's hard to find opponents among our peers, let alone in a small private middle school."
After the other two finished speaking, the handsome young man smiled dismissively.
The man seemed to agree with the young man's words and didn't comment further.
Hearing their conversation, Gu Feng frowned slightly, lost in thought.
P: The second update is here. There will be another one in the afternoon. Friends who enjoy the book, please add it to your bookshelf. Also, for those experiencing a book shortage, you can check out Crazy's older urban novel, "Wandering in the Flower World."
