After Being Betrayed I Married the Glamorous CEO-Chapter 101, You’re Just a Toad, Please Have Some Self-Respect!
According to the manager’s explanation, Wang Lan’s attitude was extremely forceful. She even invoked the name of Han Feng’s father, Han Long, stating that if the hotel didn’t cooperate, she would make them regret it.
Threatening Yunxiao Hotel? There really is nothing new under the sun!
If not for the fact that she spoke clearly and seemed perfectly sane, one might have thought Wang Lan was drunk and spouting nonsense.
Because the situation involved Shen Fanyun, the manager didn’t dare act rashly. He made a special trip to consult Shen Fanyun on the next steps.
"Go on and handle your own business," Shen Fanyun said. "I’ll take care of this."
After the manager left, an image of Wang Lan surfaced in Shen Fanyun’s mind. Has it really been over ten years since I last saw Auntie Wang? Time flies.
Wang Lan had made her position clear from the start, yet the hotel didn’t intervene promptly. Instead, they brazenly made up an excuse about needing to ask their higher-ups. Is it really that much trouble to expel a scoundrel who snuck in?
"Does the management of Yunxiao Hotel have rocks for brains? They simply don’t know how to treat people."
"We are Han Long’s in-laws. As long as they suck up to me today, Yunxiao Hotel’s business in Hangcheng City will surely improve in the future!"
To put it bluntly, they were now the number one elite family in Hangcheng City. Even the highest authority would rush to curry favor with them here. After all, their relationship with Hangcheng’s wealthiest man, Han Long, was undeniable.
"They just had to provoke me." Wang Lan was not the type to keep her feelings to herself. The more she thought about it, the more frustrated and infuriated she became, her displeasure written all over her face.
"What’s wrong?" an elder asked Wang Lan with concern.
Li Qiuchan shook her head helplessly and shared her long history with Shen Fanyun with the other elders present. She confessed partly to seek their opinions on how to handle the complication that was Shen Fanyun. After all, the wedding was fast approaching. If Shen Fanyun ruined this momentous event in her life, the loss would far outweigh any gain.
Furthermore, she also wanted to show off a little.
What kind of exceptional woman could make a man remain obsessed with her for over a decade?
Li Qiuchan never hid her vanity and pride. The more men who couldn’t let go of her, the happier she was. It gave her a sense of accomplishment!
"He is definitely a problem."
"These days, the last thing you want is a stubborn man who won’t listen to reason. He’ll just do as he pleases and, what’s worse, is adept at self-dramatization," a gray-haired elder lamented.
Another woman around Wang Lan’s age immediately scoffed crudely, "Qiuchan’s current husband is so outstanding, so wonderful. Does that bastard have any self-awareness at all? Is he worthy of Qiuchan? Can he even compare to her husband?"
"A toad lusting after a swan’s flesh. Utterly shameless!"
Wang Lan shrugged and said with feigned helplessness, "What can I do? Our Qiuchan is just that beautiful and outstanding. Who knows how many men she’s charmed over the years!"
She sounded helpless, but inwardly she was ecstatic. After all, her daughter’s beauty was a credit to her as a mother!
"Let’s not get sidetracked," Li Qiuchan interjected, steering the conversation back on topic. "The problem now is how to make this man give up on me completely."
The woman who had spoken earlier asked, "Can’t you just tell him to his face and make it clear?"
"No! Who knows if that maniac will lose it and hurt Qiuchan," Wang Lan was the first to object. If he were to act recklessly, intending to die for love and drag Li Qiuchan with him, the outcome would be unbearable for anyone.
"This..."
The group looked at one another, stumped by the difficult situation.
Finally, Wang Lan had a flash of insight. "Why not let Han Feng handle it? He’s just a worthless nobody. With Han Feng’s methods, I guarantee that guy will disappear without a trace and never bother you again in this lifetime!"
Before Li Qiuchan could respond, the manager pushed the door open and began instructing the staff to serve the food.
Although the private room afforded them a degree of privacy, Li Qiuchan’s fame was so great that it had already attracted the attention of guests in other rooms. Numerous local dignitaries came over to offer a toast, hoping to become a familiar face.
"Thank you all for your good wishes. Han Feng isn’t here today, so I’ll drink on his behalf and thank you all!" Li Qiuchan’s beautiful eyes shimmered as a blush crept onto her cheeks.
Just as Li Qiuchan finished her glass, her brow furrowed, her triumphant expression vanishing in an instant.
Shen Fanyun! He had actually shown up, and his target was obvious—he was heading straight for their private room!
Why must you be like this? Li Qiuchan murmured to herself.
She understood Shen Fanyun’s love and obsession for her. But knowing it was impossible for them in this life, his persistent and desperate behavior only made her find him more and more repulsive. Li Qiuchan was afraid Shen Fanyun would cause a scene. She feared he would express his love and inability to let her go in some incredibly childish manner in front of all her family’s elders.
Therefore, she took the initiative to step forward and block his path.
"Please, don’t be like this," she said immediately.
Shen Fanyun could only stare, completely baffled. What in the world is she talking about?
"Today is a rare occasion for me to have a meal with my family elders. Please, try to understand my position and don’t make this awkward for both of us. If we really need to talk, let’s find another time. I’ll give you that chance to speak with me alone! I don’t know how you managed to get into Yunxiao Hotel, but... please have some self-respect and leave now!"
Li Qiuchan appealed to his reason and emotions, hoping he would get the message and stop. Even if he only came for one more look at her, he had seen her now. He should be satisfied and leave!
Shen Fanyun’s brain couldn’t keep up. What on earth is this woman rambling about? What does she mean, I’ve seen her and should be satisfied? What’s so great about looking at a woman anyway? Is she as beautiful as Aunt Meiqing? Does she have Aunt Meiqing’s charm?
"Are you drunk?" Shen Fanyun asked.
"I’m not! I’m perfectly sober!" Li Qiuchan’s voice rose an octave.
Shen Fanyun was utterly speechless.
"Shen Fanyun, why don’t you take a piss and look at your own reflection? Are you worthy of our Qiuchan?"
"If you truly love her, then be brave and let go, instead of clinging to her obsessively and trying to completely ruin her life and future!"
Wang Lan could no longer hold back and unleashed a torrent of abuse.
At that moment, the elders finally realized who Shen Fanyun was. No wonder Li Qiuchan had reacted so strongly.
I came down personally to handle Wang Lan’s complaint. How did things turn into this? And on top of that, there’s obviously a huge misunderstanding. It’s a good thing I came down, otherwise I would have missed the chance to clear things up!
