However, what no one knew was that Sun Decong had obtained more information about Xu Hao from his father. The more he learned about Xu Hao's background, the more fearful he became. The vast network of power and influence was something his Sun Family could not afford to offend!
And Xu Hao was the very scion of that superpower!
Although the vast majority were unaware, in Sun Decong's eyes, this was undoubtedly an excellent opportunity. Their Sun Family knew this news in advance and could completely seize the chance to build a good relationship with Xu Hao.
This was precisely why he had issued the command to all members of the Sun family to respect Xu Hao unconditionally. However, some people, for various reasons, did not receive this order.
When the incident with Sun Jianwei occurred, Sun Decong was somewhat frightened. He hurriedly had Sun Hanren apologize to Xu Hao, and Sun Hanren took over the orphanage's affairs, which greatly relieved Sun Decong, feeling that Sun Hanren had handled it well.

Sun Decong said with a smile, "Young Master Xu, Sun Jianwei had an unpleasant encounter with you this afternoon. I have already removed him from the Sun Family's genealogy."
His words stunned everyone, including Zhang Zilong.
Disowning a family member from the family genealogy is not a simple matter; it requires the consent of all the elders of the family.
And Sun Jianwei was disowned because he had offended Xu Hao.
This also indirectly showed how high Xu Hao's status was in the eyes of the members of the Sun family!
Xu Hao nodded slightly. Sun Jianwei was not worth his concern, and Zhang Pangde and others had apologized. Xu Hao couldn't be bothered with them and said, "The wind is strong outside, and Xiao Lan is thinly dressed. Let's go inside and talk."
"Please." Sun Decong quickly stepped to the side, making a welcoming gesture.
Under the dumbfounded gaze of the security guards, Xu Hao, leading Xiao Lan, walked ahead of the rest and entered the hotel.
But upon reaching the fifth floor, Xu Hao suddenly stopped and went to the window, looking down from his high vantage point.
Sun Decong and the others were puzzled but had no choice but to follow and found Xu Hao looking towards the entrance.
Meanwhile, at the entrance.
After Xu Hao and his group had disappeared from sight, a man approached the guard and said, "You don't need to come to work here tomorrow."
"I..." The guard pointed at himself, confused, and said, "Manager, why?"
The manager glanced at the now absent crowd and whispered, "Because you blocked Young Master Xu's way! He is someone even the Patriarch of the Sun Family doesn't dare to offend, yet you dared to stop his way, pushing our hotel into the line of fire! Our hotel cannot afford such high-profile figures. You'd better look elsewhere for work."
The guard's face showed a look of misery, and he said in a low voice, "I have been working in the security industry since graduating from the martial arts school three years ago. I have not been promoted all this time, and just when I finally found a well-paying job here, I got fired for something that wasn't even my fault. I can't accept this! I was the top student at our martial arts school, the strongest in actual combat!"
The manager said disdainfully, "You, the strongest in actual combat? Who do you think you're impressing here? If you don't get lost now, I swear I'll call people to take care of you right now!"
No sooner had he finished speaking than five or six tall and burly men in security uniforms emerged, eying the guard ominously, ready to strike at a word.
The manager sneered, "Kid, you've been here for less than a month, right? Don't you know I'm the real power here? I can't afford to offend the big bosses upstairs; I have to serve them well. But you, just a young fool, really think I wouldn't dare to discipline you?
If you can knock all five of these men down today, I'll let you keep working here as a guard and even double your salary! If you can't, then you lose this month's salary. Ready to take a gamble?"
The young guard looked at the burly men and his slim stature, taking a step back.
But he immediately stopped retreating because the manager mentioned doubling his salary!
The condition was to beat them!
The young man was torn. His current salary was five thousand per month, which would be ten thousand if doubled.
Thinking of his mother, sick and the Family Head of his household and his disabled father, he took a deep breath, his eyes filled with determination. Clenching his fists, he shouted, "Come on! If I beat you down, my salary will double! Manager, you must keep your word!"
The manager immediately replied, "Of course, I will! Just make them all unable to fight back, admit defeat, and you win. You can not only continue to work here, but I will also double your salary, I promise!"
