The Strongest Dandy in the City-Chapter 477: You’re Doomed

"This idiot actually dares to cause trouble at Jingming Grand Hotel? I bet his head was kicked by a donkey when he left home this morning."

"Wasn’t it his girlfriend who stepped on the lobby manager, and they didn’t even ask him to apologize, but he had the audacity to get cocky instead?"

"This dumbfuck probably doesn’t know that Jingming Grand Hotel is owned by the Victory Sky Society, which is the reigning king of Tianhai’s underworld. Tell me, coming to Jingming to cause trouble, if not to find discomfort for himself, what else can it be?"

...

In the lobby of Jingming Grand Hotel, five or six customers pointed and whispered about Ma Xuewen and his group. They had witnessed Ma Xuewen’s unreasonable actions firsthand and weren’t about to meddle or call the police for them. Besides, even if they called the cops, it wouldn’t be much use; with the connections Victory Sky Society had in Tianhai, the police couldn’t touch this matter. Furthermore, the whole incident was entirely Ma Xuewen’s own fault.

"Xiner, Feifei, look, heaven does have eyes. This insufferable fool has naturally found someone to teach him a lesson without us lifting a finger." Ye Chenfeng, Zhao Wanting, and three other girls also entered the hotel lobby, only to see Ma Xuewen being punched and kicked by five burly security guards, while Ma Xuewen’s two male classmates just stood anxiously aside.

Curled up on the ground, Ma Xuewen wished he could slap himself hard. But more than that, he hated Ye Chenfeng deeply. If it hadn’t been for Ye Chenfeng irritating him, would he have vented all his frustration on that skinny and short lobby manager?

Ma Xuewen’s girlfriend, Xia Mengqi, was so anxious she was on the verge of tears. Seeing Zhao Wanting and Ye Chenfeng entering the lobby, she quickly said to the lobby manager, "What my boyfriend did earlier was wrong, and for that, I apologize here. My friend is the daughter of Zhao Qihua of the Zhaos from Tianhai. Can you please forget this incident today for the Zhaos’ sake?"

Xia Mengqi hoped that since Jingming Grand Hotel was located in Tianhai, and Zhao Qihua wielded a certain influence in the city’s business circles, maybe today’s issue wouldn’t escalate further.

Who knew the lobby manager would just coldly snicker? Zhao Qi’s daughter was Ye Chen’s woman, a fact known by only a few within Victory Sky Society. Who had Victory Sky Society ever feared in Tianhai? Besides, today’s fuss was all because of Ma Xuewen’s own making, so the lobby manager had no intention of letting him off the hook: "Sister, what’s the point of your boyfriend pretending to be something when he’s really nothing? You’re going to suffer if you stick with a guy like that. As for the Tianhai Zhaos you mentioned, they’re of no importance here. I suggest you ask around, see if anyone in Tianhai dares to make a scene at Jingming Grand Hotel?"

Xia Mengqi turned pale, sensing the daunting background of Jingming Grand Hotel. She bowed frantically to the lobby manager, pleading, "I’m sorry, I’m sorry, I’m sorry, please let my boyfriend go!" It seems Xia Mengqi was truly sincere about Ma Xuewen, or else she wouldn’t be desperately begging the lobby manager on his behalf.

The skinny and short lobby manager waved his hands, saying, "Sister, I’m not unreasonable. You seem like a decent person too, so today I’ll allow you to see your boyfriend’s true colors."

The lobby manager turned to the five hulking security guards, "Bring that idiot over here."

The guards dragged Ma Xuewen by his clothes to the lobby manager. By that time, Ma Xuewen’s face was covered in bruises, and his body seemed to have gone limp, the very picture of someone beaten senseless.

With a resounding "smack," the lobby manager didn’t hesitate to slap Ma Xuewen’s face, asking, "You’re not dead, are you? If you’re not, make a peep, or I might as well toss you into the Huangpu River to feed the fish."

Ma Xuewen trembled all over, quickly coming to his senses. Seeing that bystanders in the lobby had no intention to intervene and guessing that Jingming Grand Hotel had a complicated background, he adopted the saying ’a wise man does not fight when the odds are against him’. Especially for a villain like himself – he whimpered, "Big brother, it’s my fault, all my fault. Please have mercy on me and let me go!"

The people around, upon hearing Ma Xuewen begging for mercy, showed faces full of disdain, including his girlfriend Xia Mengqi, who also showed a trace of displeasure in her eyes. It was one thing for her to beg for mercy on his behalf—after all, she was a woman and did it out of love for her boyfriend. But Ma Xuewen’s actions were just a bit too unmanly, weren’t they?

"You seem quite sensible, kid. Is this your girlfriend? Let her spend a night with me, and I’ll let today’s matter slide. Otherwise, even if the Emperor of Heaven himself showed up in Tianhai, no one could save you," the hall manager said with a smirk.

Ma Xuewen hesitated for only three seconds, "Big brother, okay, I agree to any of your requests. Even if it means letting her stay with you forever, I’m more than willing."

In Ma Xuewen’s mind, Xia Mengqi was someone he had grown tired of playing with long ago. He had been planning to find an excuse to dump her after a while. So why not just go with the flow today? After all, he had no way out.

Upon hearing Ma Xuewen’s almost unhesitant response, Xia Mengqi’s eyes instantly reddened as she swore, "Ma Xuewen, you bastard, you big bastard, you cold-hearted beast!"

Ma Xuewen’s other classmates also looked down on him for his behavior. They hadn’t heard the hall manager’s earlier comment about letting Xia Mengqi see her boyfriend’s true colors, and now everyone assumed that the hall manager really had taken a fancy to Xia Mengqi. Despite their contempt for Ma Xuewen, his classmates didn’t dare to stand up for Xia Mengqi, knowing that today’s incident was not something they could afford to get involved in.

Ye Chenfeng and Zhao Wanting, along with three other girls, were heading towards Ma Xuewen’s group when they happened to overhear his beastly words. Zhao Wanting had been very close to Xia Mengqi during their college days. Just for the sake of their past friendship, she felt obliged to help Xia Mengqi and took the hall manager’s words seriously.

"Chenfeng, why don’t you help Mengqi out? Ma Xuewen is simply not a man," Zhao Wanting said, her contempt rising from the core of her being. Any man who could offer his woman to another man was utterly despised by every woman.

"Chenfeng, actually Jingming Grand Hotel is owned by the Victory Sky Society. Just a word from you and they surely won’t trouble Mengqi anymore. As for Ma Xuewen, just let him reap what he sows," Zhao Wanting knew that Ye Chenfeng was the founder of the Victory Sky Society and that his status within the organization was unparalleled.

Seeing that Zhao Wanting had put it that way, how could Ye Chenfeng not act? His palm secretly squeezed Zhao Wanting’s firm rear end as he said, "Wanting, remember to perform well tonight. I didn’t get enough of you yesterday!"

Of course, Zhao Wanting understood the implied meaning of Ye Chenfeng’s words. Her cheeks flushed red, and she shot Ye Chenfeng a blaming glance with her beautiful eyes. After yesterday’s intense experience with Ye Chenfeng, her lower body was still sore!

"Friend, let’s just forget about today’s business, shall we? It was this bastard who offended you. Why bother with a woman?" Ye Chenfeng approached the hall manager and, with indifference, glanced at the bruised and battered Ma Xuewen.

Seeing Ye Chenfeng, this so-called pretty boy, daring to speak up made Ma Xuewen secretly rejoice. He blamed his current predicament and shattered image entirely on Ye Chenfeng. So he hoped Ye Chenfeng would have a conflict with the hall manager and then get a good beating—which would be so satisfying!

"Are you blind, kid? Daring to speak to this big brother like that? You must have a death wish," Ma Xuewen said, regardless of the hit his image had taken, driven purely by a desire for revenge.

The hall manager furrowed his brows upon seeing Ye Chenfeng. He had once had the fortune to see President Ye up close and had even secretly taken photos of him with his phone. President Ye was the idol of every member of the Victory Sky Society. After being silent for a minute, the hall manager’s body suddenly trembled. He hastily took out his phone; he had set a picture of Ye Chenfeng as his wallpaper to be able to admire it at any time. Seeing that the man in the photo and the man in front of him were exactly the same, he could no longer remain calm.

As for Ma Xuewen, seeing the hall manager’s series of incomprehensible actions, he guessed that the manager was probably just getting angrier. His lips curled up slightly as he said to Ye Chenfeng, "You’re done for." (To be continued.
