Chapter 1005: Chapter 1046: Strong Alliance

Li Yifei slightly smiled and said, "It seems Brother Meng is convinced that his fist is harder than mine?"

Meng Qianjun blinked and replied, "I’m no match for you. You are the real Head Eagle of the Flying Hawk Squad. Not just in our country but worldwide, you’re recognized as the top expert. How dare I act foolishly before you?"

Li Yifei shook his head and said, "Brother Meng, you’re mistaken. We just tested each other, and it’s clear you have profound skills, and your strength exceeds everyone’s imagination. I don’t understand; considering the Meng Family has an expert like you, why would you let someone like Meng Xiaojun harm the Battle Bear Squad? Could it be that the Meng Family has other plans?"

Wei Zijun and Gu Yanan immediately turned their gaze toward Meng Qianjun. They knew Meng Qianjun was skilled in martial arts, although not a secret, they didn’t know how strong he indeed was. To them, Meng Qianjun was just a bit stronger than an average person, nowhere near extraordinary. Now, hearing Li Yifei say this, could it be that Meng Qianjun had always hidden much of his potential?

Meng Qianjun rolled his eyes and said, "I knew sparring with Brother Yifei would just be asking for trouble. But, Brother Yifei, you don’t have to be so harsh, do you? My little skills compared to yours are like heaven and earth. You deliberately raising suspicions in Young Master Wei and Young Master Gu about me is not quite fair."

Li Yifei had purposely said it. He knew that if they didn’t genuinely fight and let Wei Zijun witness it, they may not believe Meng Qianjun was an Unparalleled Expert. So he chuckled and said, "Brother Meng is so secretive. How could we know how strong you really are?"

Meng Qianjun pursed his lips and replied, "Acting strong in front of ordinary people like me is somewhat fair, but comparing me to an expert like you is impossible. You’re harming me without actually harming me. Now, Young Master Wei and Young Master Gu will be more cautious toward me. Ah, you used a good tactic there."

Having achieved his goal, Li Yifei laughed again and said, "Since everyone here has ill intentions towards my wife, I obviously can’t let you just manipulate us. It’s only right for me to strike back occasionally."

Everyone also laughed along, but what everyone was thinking was unknown to others. These were no weak individuals; though not completely concealing emotions, they were experts at hiding their real intentions.

"Ugh..." At that moment, Su Mengxin suddenly covered her stomach and dry-heaved twice. Li Yifei and Su Yiyi gently patted her back from each side, drawing everyone’s attention to her.

Everyone knew that these reactions were due to Su Mengxin’s pregnancy. Hearing Su Mengxin say it was one thing, but everyone still felt she was deliberately speaking for Li Yifei, killing Wei Zijun’s hope and letting everyone understand the relationship between the Su Family and Li Yifei. But seeing her reaction was another matter; it was now clearly confirmed, and especially for Wei Zijun, it was hard to accept.

Su Mengxin’s condition seemed stronger today and continued dry-heaving. Li Yifei had no mood to continue being hypocritically polite, so he said, "Excuse us, Mengxin is feeling uncomfortable, I need to take her back to rest early. Young Master Wei, Young Master Gu, Brother Meng, another day I’ll host you all until we drink under the table."

"If you are leaving, taking the beauty with you, what fun is left for us? Let’s disperse," said Meng Qianjun with a wave of his hand.

Gu Yanan and Wei Qianjun agreed, and Song Zhentao immediately said, "Alright, let’s end it here for today. Since the three of you wish to expand in Mile City, we’ll have plenty of opportunities to meet again, not just today."

After a final toast, Li Yifei left with Su Mengxin and Su Yiyi. The Saintess pouted and said, "You promised to spend today with me, I’ll go back with you too," and followed Li Yifei.

Wei Qianjun and the others also stepped out of the hotel, and after Song Zhentao left, Meng Qianjun said with a smile, "Let’s find another place to have a drink."

Gu Yanan and Wei Zijun smiled and agreed. Although the three were not allied, having Li Yifei as a common enemy in Mile City made them not mind joining forces. To them, profit was paramount; for the sake of benefits, even former enemies could enjoy a drink together and become friends.

Before coming, they hadn’t thought about forming an alliance, but upon witnessing the relationship between Su Mengxin and Li Yifei, and that Angel Group was aligned with Li Yifei, they realized how strong Li Yifei was. If just one of them alone, or just one family, they couldn’t overcome Li Yifei.

The three found a bar and after a couple of drinks, Wei Qianjun said, "It seems Li Yifei is not that easy to deal with."

Gu Yanan lightly smiled and said, "Young Master Wei, aren’t you being a bit hypocritical? Young Master Wei is almost invincible in South Su, how could a mere Li Yifei be a problem for you?"

Wei Zijun took a sip of his drink, slightly swirling his glass and said, "Young Master Gu, do you think I’m stronger than Su Mengxin? Li Yifei has Su Mengxin as a backer, along with the support of Angel Group. Not to mention me, even you two probably don’t have much of a chance."

Gu Yanan lightly smiled and said, "It’s true that the Su Family stands with Li Yifei, but I think Miss Yanzi from Angel Group is rather questionable. If she was that close to Li Yifei, she wouldn’t start a new venture in Mile City; she would have invested in whatever Li Yifei was doing."

Meng Qianjun chuckled, saying, "Young Master Gu always has more information; we can’t compare with you."

Gu Yanan took another sip of his drink, maintaining his usual smile, said, "You don’t need to flatter me. When it comes to information, the Gu Family is indeed more connected since we handle a few departments related to these matters. But to say that you haven’t investigated Li Yifei, I wouldn’t believe that. So I hope we can be frank and open about what we know and what we plan to do, then we can all work out how to proceed together."

Wei Zijun and Meng Qianjun exchanged looks then burst out laughing and raised their glasses, followed by Gu Yanan lifting his. The three clinked their glasses together and drained them, effectively agreeing to unite their thoughts.

But whether everyone could truly be open and honest was another matter. For people like them, revealing all their cards was clearly out of the question.
