The receptionist was startled by the boss’s oppressive roar and quickly tapped on the computer: "Manager, room 808 was booked a quarter of an hour ago by a woman surnamed Sun, and later a man surnamed Liu took the room card."
"What?" Shen Jianxiong’s eyes suddenly narrowed, suppressing the tremor in his heart as he asked, "When did the man surnamed Liu take the room card?"
"About five minutes ago." The receptionist remembered clearly, the man surnamed Liu
had just entered the elevator when the manager came rushing out from another elevator.
Who exactly was staying in room 808 to make the manager so flustered?
Shen Jianxiong let out a sigh of relief after listening, picked up the intercom at the reception and instructed, "All staff members on the eighth floor immediately go to room 808; no one may enter room 808."
He put down the intercom and rushed into the elevator like the wind, leaving the two receptionists looking at each other in shock. Did the manager see a ghost?
On the eighth floor of the Tianxue Hotel, Liu Songyuan, dragging his fat body, fiddled with the room card in his fingers, humming a little tune as he headed straight for room 808 after getting out of the elevator.
Before he even reached the door, he saw a circle of staff members. Liu Songyuan looked past the black heads one by one at the room number and then at the room card in his hand. It was indeed 808.
"Make way." Liu Songyuan said a bit impatiently. Time was precious; he didn’t want to keep the person inside waiting.
"Sorry, sir, you can’t go in there." The floor supervisor stepped out and said.
"What do you mean I can’t go in? I booked this room." Liu Songyuan said, waving the room card in his hand.
"I’m sorry, sir, but no one can enter this room from now on." The supervisor stood at the door of room 808 like a guardian deity.
"It’s my booked room, why can’t I go in?" Seeing the door of 808 right in front but being unable to enter, Liu Songyuan’s anger flared up.
"Sorry, sir." The supervisor apologized but didn’t move an inch.
This time, Liu Songyuan was really furious: "Do you know who I am? Believe it or not, I’ll have you kicked out of this hotel, kicked out of Xiping City immediately."
Without the Ye Family, there was still someone in Xiping daring to block him, Liu Songyuan. If he didn’t take this opportunity to assert his authority, people might not know who the real boss of Xiping was now.
Sure enough, seeing Liu Songyuan’s anger, the supervisor didn’t dare speak further but still guarded the door.
Just then, the elevator door opened. Shen Jianxiong saw the person at the door of 808 and his expression changed slightly. Was today meant to push him to the brink? He couldn’t afford to offend either the land gods or King Yan.
"Calm down, President Liu, calm down." Shen Jianxiong greeted with a chuckle, "I was the one who stationed people here, I didn’t expect the guest in 808 to be you, President Liu."
Seeing it was the hotel manager, Liu Songyuan’s aura intensified: "Manager Shen, are you planning to shut this hotel down in Xiping?"
"No, no, President Liu, I did it for your own good." Shen Jianxiong continued to smile, but internally he thought: Luckily, I intercepted in time, otherwise, the Liu Family might become the second Ye Family tomorrow, and this hotel would not be spared either.
"What do you mean?" Liu Songyuan asked with a puzzled look.
Shen Jianxiong didn’t bother with more words, he whispered a few words in Liu Songyuan’s ear, Liu Songyuan’s face trembled with terror, beads of sweat forming on his forehead: "Is this true?"
"Do you think I would joke with you about such matters?" Shen Jianxiong stopped smiling, speaking seriously.
