Meanwhile, Liu He arrived beside the hotel manager while reeking of alcohol.
“Are you the ones who were fighting?”
The manager had a headache. He looked at the two groups of people and asked loudly.
“They were the ones who hit us. We didn’t even retaliate!”
Upon hearing this, Yang Xiao immediately stood up and protested in an inarticulate manner while covering his mouth.
Liu He immediately glared at him, and Yang Xiao immediately jumped in fright. Then, Yang Xiao hid behind the crowd like a frightened rabbit.
Then, after observing the situation, Yang Xiao seemed to have already determined that the other party wouldn’t have the chance to attack again. Thus, he stood back up.
He looked at Liu He and said bravely, “What are you doing? There are so many people here. Do you still want to fight?”
“Enough!”
Seeing that the two parties were about to start arguing again, the hotel manager waved his hand and said, “Captain Wu, bring them to the security room. Try not to disturb the other guests.”
“And the rest of you, return to your positions. There’s no need for you to care about this.”
When the surrounding waiters heard this, they immediately dispersed into groups of twos and threes.
Meanwhile, the security captain surnamed Wu nodded and signaled to his men. Then, a few strong men stepped immediately forward.
“Brothers, come with us.”
Wang Ge straightened his clothes. As the victim, he felt that he should speak louder. However, before he could open his mouth, the security guard glared at him and he cowered on the spot.
Liu He straightened his clothes and looked indifferent.
“Those three are your accomplices, right? Bring them back to the security room too.”
Captain Wu looked at Ye Feng and the other two people beside him. Then, he called for his brothers to make their move.
Seeing this, Liu He immediately stopped them. “Didn’t you see that they are taking care of someone? Besides, if anything happens, I alone am enough to settle it!”
Captain Wu took a look. Indeed, the two of them were holding onto someone. Meanwhile, the person who was being held was obviously unable to stand properly. If anything were to happen to him, he would have to bear the responsibility again.
After thinking for a moment, he said, “Alright, then come with me!”
‘Why does only one person from their group need to go!” Upon seeing this, Wang Ge immediately panicked and pushed Yang Xiao out. “Can he be the only one from our group who goes as well?”
“No!”
The security captain glared at him. “Hurry up and follow me!”
…
“Fourth Brother, Second Brother left with the security guards. Are you alright?”
Yang Chao struggled to support Fan Jiawei. At the same time, he was worried about Liu He.
Ye Feng was actually not very confident. However, when he thought about how the hotel would not call the police so easily, he relaxed a little.
“It shouldn’t be a problem. At most, we’ll compensate the hotel for their losses. As long as his attitude is good, the hotel won’t make things difficult for them.
“What we need to do now is to send Boss to the hospital.”
“Oh,” Yang Chao replied to him. “Fourth Brother, why am I the one holding Boss? He’s so heavy.”
“A person who weighs over 50 kilograms is not too heavy…” Ye Feng consoled him. “Those who are capable should do more.”
…
In the security room of Yanghe Hotel.
The hotel manager was about to leave when someone stopped him.
“Let’s find a place to chat, shall we?”
Liu He pouted and waved his phone. “It’s a call from your boss.”
When the hotel manager heard this, he did not dare to be negligent. He took a deep look at Liu He and led him out.
Outside the door…
“Yes… Yes, yes, yes. It’s nothing serious, boss. I understand. I understand.”
“Did they affect anything?”
“No. The guests were fine.”
“What? Not the guests… Oh, I understand, I understand. Don’t worry, nothing happened to Young Master Liu.”
“Yes, yes, yes… I’ll release him now.”
(He couldn’t clearly hear the pronunciation of the Young Master’s surname over the phone, so the hotel manager assumed that it was Liu.)
After putting down the phone, the hotel manager wiped the sweat off his forehead.
Initially, he was wondering who the “boss” Liu He had mentioned was, but he didn’t expect it to actually be the company President.
The hotel manager didn’t know what kind of person the President was. He only knew that Yanghe Hotel was just a very small part of his business.
“Young Master Liu.” The hotel manager said respectfully, “This was a misunderstanding. If I had known that you knew our boss, I wouldn’t have brought you here!”
“I’m really sorry.”
“It’s all right. You did what you had to do.”
Liu He waved his hand and said, “I’ll compensate you double the damage I caused at your hotel today.”
“Don’t refuse. This is another matter altogether. This I can tell.”
“Can we leave now?”
“Alright, alright. Take care, Young Master Liu.”
The hotel manager immediately spoke.
…
“Has the matter been resolved?”
Ye Feng sighed in relief when he saw Liu He walk out.
“Yes, it’s settled.”
Liu He nodded.
“The hotel didn’t call the police, did they?” Ye Feng asked.
“No!”
Liu He shook his head.
Just as they were about to leave, Ye Feng suddenly thought of something and hurriedly said, “That’s good. Right, how much did you pay? We’ll split it amongst the three of us and transfer it to you.”
“Fourth Brother, why are you so wishy-washy!”
“Don’t talk about such things between brothers!”
Liu He was instantly unhappy. “Oh right, where are Boss and Third Brother?”
“Hehe.” Ye Feng smiled as he scratched his head and said, “Third Brother brought Boss to the hospital first. I was worried, so I waited for you here.”
“Can we leave now?”
“Sure…”
However, before Liu He could finish speaking, the hotel manager rushed over.
“Is something the matter?”
“It’s like this…” The hotel manager cautiously looked at Liu He and made up his mind. ” Just now, one of our new security guards called… called the police. ”
“What?”
Liu He immediately felt anxious. “Why didn’t you look out for him!”
“I was careless. I was careless.”
The manager hurriedly apologized.
He was so wronged that he felt like he was going to die. He didn’t expect the new security guard to be a fool and simply call the police.
“Then, how do you think this matter will be resolved?!”
Liu He knew very well that if the police were called, the nature of the matter would change.
“This… I…”
The hotel manager could not come up with a plan at the moment.
“How about this?”
At this moment, Ye Feng stood up. “Second Brother, you can leave first.”
“Third Brother drank a lot and is not clear-headed. Go and help him.”
“What about you?”
Liu He asked.
“I’ll stay behind.”
Ye Feng pretended to be relaxed and said, “Don’t worry, it’s nothing. Trust me!”
“I…”
Seeing that Liu He still wanted to say something, Ye Feng hurriedly pushed him away. “Boss is more important.”
“Alright then.”
Upon seeing this, Liu He could only nod and agree. “If there’s anything, get the hotel to cooperate. We’re all friends.”
…
After sending Liu He off, Ye Feng sighed.
In the end, trouble had occurred as a result of this meal.
The reason why he let Liu He leave was because even if Liu He stayed, it would be useless. Instead, it would implicate another person in the matter.
Instead of being punished together, it was better to bear the consequences alone.
After all, in the end, this mess happened because of his birthday.
However, Ye Feng was not the type to wait passively. Hence, he thought for a moment and said to the hotel manager beside him, “Do you have cigarettes here?”
“Give me a pack of Chunghwa cigarettes. I’ll cough if I smoke any other brands1.”
