"Indeed. The Jiuhua Hot Springs Resort is where Shen Cong entertains his most important guests. I can't believe you're good friends with him, Mr. Jiang. Please take care of me in the future." Many parents smiled fawningly and lavished praise and flattery onto Jiang Fengguang.

Clearly, they could see the benefit of befriending Jiang Fengguang or his mysterious friend, Mr. Chu.

Chu Feng was standing some distance away from the crowd. He smiled knowingly to himself as he listened to the parents' conversation.

It'd be very interesting to see their reactions when they replace out that influential "Mr. Chu" is actually me!

"Of course, that won't be a problem." A brilliant grin was plastered all over Jiang Fengguang's smug face. He was basking in the spotlight.

He waved his hand and said, "It'll be a two-and-a-half-hour drive to the Jiuhua Hot Springs Resort. I have some ready-to-eat meals in the trunk. Why don't we eat now so we won't starve on the way?"

The parents were even happier than ever. They had finished the snacks they brought to the trip, and they were already tired and hungry. The meals were like a godsend.

Almost all the families received something to eat. When it was Chu Feng and Yang Gang's turn, Jiang Fengguang smirked sarcastically and said, "Oh, I'm so sorry. There's not enough food for you two. You'll have to bear with it for a bit."

"What's the meaning of this, Jiang Fengguang?" Yang Gang said angrily. "You're deliberately picking on us!"

"Yes, I'm deliberately picking on you," Jiang Fengguang said with a grin, as though he had succeeded in getting back at the man. "I was the one who procured the food, and I don't feel like giving it to you two. What are you going to do about it? You two were so loud and brash when attacking me earlier, right? Go replace your own food if you're so capable."

"I wasn't planning on receiving your charity anyway. It's beneath me to do that," Chu Feng said calmly.

He patted Yang Gang's shoulder, hinting that they should leave.

"Stubborn idiots! You'll grovel at my feet for food when you're starving!" Jiang Fengguang scoffed and muttered to himself.

He felt vindicated when he saw Chu Feng and Yang Gang walk away defeatedly. That's for insulting me earlier!

Yang Gang clenched his fists tightly and glared at the other parents. "Pah! What's going on with the others? Did they forget how we stood up for them when Jiang Fengguang forced them to pitch in for Ms. Luo's new car?"

The parents were quietly eating after receiving food from Jiang Fengguang. None of them spoke up for Chu Feng and Yang Gang, as though they had gone mute and blind.

"Isn't that so? How could they so shamelessly befriend Jiang Fengguang? How disgusting!" Yun Muqing said indignantly.

Chu Feng seemed unbothered. "That's normal. People will never root for the underdog, and I'd advise you not to challenge that fact," he said calmly.

If the other parents had a backbone of their own, they would have stood up against Jiang Fengguang instead of letting him bully them into buying gifts and giving money to the teachers. Jiang Fengguang was a born sycophant, and the others became his enablers by not speaking up.

"I'm with you, Chu Feng. I'd rather starve to death than take a bite of his food!" Yang Gang said proudly while thumping his chest.

However, their children were suffering. They could only look helplessly while the other people ate happily. The wafting aroma of roast chicken and sausages made their stomachs growl.

Jiang Fengguang's daughter, Jiang Lili, waved a chicken drumstick at Duo Duo and grinned smugly, as though saying, "My father is better than yours! Look, I have food. What about you?" She stuck her tongue out at Duo Duo and said, "You're not getting any. Serves you right!"

Like father, like daughter.

"Hmph!"
