"What is this?" Du Qingyue asked in confusion.

Xiao Feng laughed and said, "This card has five hundred million in it. You can use it to open a store and invest the rest in some financial management. I'm not really sure about this stuff, just don't squander it all."

"You're underestimating me," Du Qingyue replied irritably. "How much do you have in your other card?"

"I haven't checked. Wang Lubo gave it to me, I'm keeping it for pocket money." Xiao Feng said very frankly.

Du Qingyue nodded, thinking it's quite good like this. At least Xiao Feng didn't hide his money from her, which is better than secretly stashing money away.

However, Du Qingyue couldn't help but ask, "How did you earn these five hundred million?"

"This is a long story..." Xiao Feng briefly explained the process. After listening, Du Qingyue realized and said, "I knew from the newspapers before that the Shen Group definitely had cash flow problems, but I didn't expect some of the funds ended up with you."

"There was nothing I could do, Shen Tianze brought it upon himself," Xiao Feng shrugged, looking quite innocent.

Du Qingyue smiled, "If you need more money, just ask me. I'll hold on to this card for now."

"Aren't you surprised?" Xiao Feng asked in confusion, "This is five hundred million, five hundred million!"

"What's so special about five hundred million?" Du Qingyue replied casually, "Money is just a number. Some things money can't buy, like life, and also... happiness."

...

After leaving the hospital, a few snowflakes drifted down from the sky, marking the first snow of the year in Jiangcheng.

Children on the street ran around with bright smiles, trying to catch the falling snowflakes with their hands.

As the snowflakes fell slowly, they brought cold to the adults, making them put on more layers, and parents worried if their children might catch a cold or fever. But to the children, it was pure joy.

The snow was the same, but the emotions it evoked in adults and children were entirely different.

Xiao Feng watched the smiles on the children's faces and seemed to be infected by it, his mouth unconsciously curving upwards. Once upon a time, he too had run through the snow like this...

This sudden sentiment made Xiao Feng pause, wondering why he felt like he was already old.

Walking to the agreed hotel, Xiao Feng noticed from afar a group of people standing outside braving the snow, among them a tall and slender young man in a woolen coat, who seemed to be the center of the group.

This person was Chang Xinyan. Upon seeing Xiao Feng, Chang Xinyan quickly stepped forward to greet him from afar, "Brother Feng, what an honor to have you here for a meal. It's truly my privilege. I'm Chang Xinyan, let's talk inside."

With that, he led Xiao Feng into the hotel, and the others at the door nodded and greeted Xiao Feng.

Xiao Feng didn't stand on ceremony and followed him inside directly, without any small talk, whereas the people at the door exchanged glances watching Xiao Feng's back heading into the hotel, silently acknowledging that a big shot is indeed different from ordinary people!

These people were all partners of the Chang Family. Chang Xinyan inviting them was similar to the previous actions of the Du Family, just showcasing his connections to let them see how influential a person he could invite!

"Be careful with your words later. Shen Tianze got into trouble because he messed with him and brought the entire Shen Group down with him."

"What's his background that he can bring down the Shen Group?"

"No one knows his exact background, but he has very deep connections with Kyoto. I have a little insider info that Song Zhengbo visited Jiangcheng Public Security Bureau before, and this person was a consultant there."

The moment these words were spoken, everyone at the hotel entrance fell silent with a chill. Song Zhengbo, a person of that caliber, actually visited a small local bureau, and Xiao Feng just happened to be at that bureau — what this implies couldn't be clearer.

Perhaps even Song Zhengbo wouldn't have expected that a simple visit to see his daughter would end up with rumors of his close relationship with Xiao Feng, a twist of fate, indeed.

In fact, Song Zhengbo wasn't exactly the kind to wear emotions on his sleeve as Xiao Feng saw him, but perhaps every father-in-law and son-in-law naturally harbor some hostility. So when Song Keren was clearly partial to Xiao Feng, Song Zhengbo became somewhat displeased with Xiao Feng.

"Brother Feng, what do you think of the style of this hotel?" Chang Xinyan asked very politely, positioning himself humbly from the start, but no one dared to underestimate him because of it.

On the contrary, in the eyes of the accompanying people, the ability to strike up a conversation with Xiao Feng already speaks volumes about his strength.

"Is this hotel owned by your family?" Xiao Feng glanced around and asked casually.

"Brother Feng has sharp eyes, it just opened last month," Chang Xinyan flattering without showing any sign.

Xiao Feng looked around and said, "It's alright. I've been thinking about opening a hotel myself lately... Hmm, not bad, really not bad. I'm quite satisfied."

Chang Xinyan and the others were momentarily speechless. Clearly, there was more to his words, constantly emphasizing how satisfied he was, almost as if he's worried others wouldn't know he has set his sights on this hotel.

At this moment, everyone's eyes were on Chang Xinyan, curious about how he would respond.

After all, a star-rated hotel, from acquiring the land to construction, and setting up elevators and other facilities, plus the decoration, couldn't be done under tens of millions, even a billion isn't impossible.

But unexpectedly, Chang Xinyan boldly said, "Since Brother Feng likes it, I'm making the decision to give this hotel to you as a package."

With that, he told the lobby manager, "This gentleman is the new owner of the hotel now!"

The hotel staff were shocked, just a few words, and the hotel was given away. Is this the craziness of the rich world?

However, no matter how you look at it, the hotel changing hands was inevitable. The well-dressed lobby manager quickly summoned all visible staff over, and they lined up to bow, saying, "Hello, boss!"

The following employees also followed suit, bowing and greeting.

Xiao Feng was so pleased he couldn't stop grinning, "Great, great, all good!"

After the greetings, the group exuberantly headed towards the top-floor private room, while the staff were all abuzz, expressing an almost dreamlike sense of unreality.

Following Chang Xinyan and Xiao Feng, the wealthy individuals exchanged glances, thinking about how Xiao Feng's behavior seemed incredibly brazen.

Of course, to put it frankly, it's shameless.

But who would dare to say it openly? Xiao Feng could easily bring down the Shen Group, messing with him is akin to courting disaster!

Inside the private room, after everyone was seated, Chang Xinyan continued to exchange pleasantries, all centered around one theme: flattering Xiao Feng.

Xiao Feng suddenly started to enjoy this feeling, remembering that old saying, why earn money?

Just so at meals and gatherings, when I pick up my chopsticks, no one dares to turn the table!

Now it seems, not only do they not dare to turn the table, but if Xiao Feng didn't say they could start eating, they might not even dare to pick up the dishes.

As the rounds of drinks continued and the dishes were tasted, Xiao Feng seemed to mention casually, "I heard there's some Rich Young Man's Club in Jiangcheng, and someone set up a wager before. Altogether, the bet exceeded a billion. Xin Yan bro, do you know about this wager?"

As he was pouring wine for Xiao Feng, Chang Xinyan's body stiffened. The inevitable had finally come.

Originally, he thought that by giving away the hotel, Xiao Feng would drop the matter, but from the situation, it seemed Xiao Feng was not planning to let it slide.

The others, sensing the off atmosphere, set their chopsticks down, not daring to breathe out of fear that the conflict between titans might affect them, mere mortals.

"I've heard a bit about it, but I don't know the specifics. Actually, I rarely go to that place," Chang Xinyan coughed twice, speaking carefully as he wasn't sure about Xiao Feng's attitude.

Because saying he knew nothing about it would be an insult to intelligence, he could only give a vague answer.

Xiao Feng shook the glass in front of him, watching the wine swirl inside, and smiled, "That's not right, I heard Xin Yan bro was involved and even bet a limited edition sports car, is my info incorrect?"
