The City’s Strongest Son-in-law

Chapter 1177: Chapter 1176: Too Many Obstacles

”Chang Feng, I have wronged you in this matter, but I really had no other choice.” Yang Junming sighed and temporarily found a place to stay.

Every move in Jiang City naturally couldn’t escape Zhu Lie’s eyes, so the moment Yang Junming appeared in Jiang City, he knew about it.

As for Yang Junming’s true identity, Zhu Lie wasn’t clear, but he knew that only Yang Junming knew where Su Changfeng had gone. Now, Shen Hanxue’s situation was getting worse, and Shangguan Sichen had been trying to contact Su Changfeng, but hadn’t found a way yet.

Now that Yang Junming suddenly came to Jiang City, he should be able to contact him and inform Su Changfeng about Shen Hanxue’s situation.

”Boss, are you planning to find Yang Junming?” Feng Bin asked.

”Yes, but I can’t just openly look for him. His visit to Jiang City this time didn’t alarm anyone. He probably has his own reasons. So, I’ll go personally.” Zhu Lie nodded and said.

Not daring to delay, Zhu Lie quickly went to the hotel where Yang Junming was staying. He walked to the front desk and asked, ”Could you check for me which room a person named Yang Junming is in now?”

The girl at the front desk, wearing lipstick, continued her actions without a pause and didn’t even look up, just waved her hand, ”Sorry, this is guest information, it’s not convenient to disclose.”

Protecting guest privacy was a basic requirement in their line of work. Usually, Zhu Lie didn’t want to use his power to intimidate others, but he had to meet Yang Junming as Shen Hanxue’s situation couldn’t wait.

”How about calling your manager to see if they would want to tell me?” Zhu Lie said coldly.

The girl at the front desk raised her head slightly disdainfully, glanced at Zhu Lie in front of her. So he’s an old man? Looking so proper, but who would’ve thought he’d be this arrogant? Who does he think he is? Is the manager someone you can just meet?

”Sorry, it’s the rule. No one can break it.” The girl’s attitude was very firm.

”Manager won’t do? If that’s the case, tell your boss. What kind of broken rules are these? It’s about time for a change!” Zhu Lie said.

The girl at the front desk nearly burst out laughing when she heard this. This old man is really something. Who does he think he is? Wants to see the boss? In this day and age, what kind of people don’t you meet!

”Old man, sorry, are you joking with me? Is the boss someone you can just meet? You better leave quickly, or I’ll really call security!” The girl also got a bit angry. This old man was being quite unreasonable.

Bam!

The next second, Zhu Lie clenched his fist and slammed it heavily on the desk. The girl seemed not to have expected Zhu Lie to do this, and her body shook uncontrollably.

”What’s the meaning of this? Causing trouble? Do you even know whose place this is?” The girl at the front desk couldn’t hold back anymore, glaring angrily at Zhu Lie.

”Whose place is it? Tell me so I can hear! If there’s a chance in the future, I’ll be sure to pay them a visit!” Zhu Lie snorted coldly.

At this moment, a middle-aged man appeared in the hotel corridor, dressed in a suit and tie, with a badge on his neck with the word ”Manager” written on it, obviously the manager here.

He was actually inspecting the hotel environment, and he noticed Zhu Lie from afar, almost popping his eyes out.

That, that looks like Brother Lie?

What good reason would he have to come to their hotel? Did he seem very angry? Did he see wrong?

Looking at the girl at the front desk again, he instantly felt a bad premonition. Could it be that she provoked Zhu Lie?

Thinking of this possibility, the manager only felt his legs go weak. If Zhu Lie was offended, and if the boss found out, his job would not be safe. Maybe he wouldn’t have a place in Jiang City anymore.

Walking briskly over, his already plump body almost exerted the potential from his younger days.

The girl at the front desk also noticed the manager rushing over, and her mind, which had been dumbstruck by Zhu Lie, finally responded. She looked at Zhu Lie with pride, ”Weren’t you demanding to see the manager earlier? Now he’s here, but I kindly remind you, he’s not so easy to talk to!”

Upon hearing this, Zhu Lie turned straight around, eyes fixed on the man running from afar.

Not easy to talk to?

”The thing I do best is dealing with people who aren’t easy to talk to.” Zhu Lie said expressionlessly.

”Kindly reminding you, whether you believe it or not is none of my business.” The girl at the front desk said, with an indifferent expression.

”Brother, Brother Lie, is it really you? How come you have time to come today? Why didn’t you inform me beforehand, so I could welcome you properly!” The manager ran over, huffing and puffing, speaking very respectfully.

This person in front was the boss of the underworld in Jiang City, even if the hotel owner came, they would listen obediently to him. Naturally, as a manager, he didn’t dare to be presumptuous in front of Zhu Lie.

The girl at the front desk, who was preparing to watch the show, was utterly dumbfounded.

What is going on? Did she see it wrong? Is this still the manager she knows who throws his weight around?

She knew their hotel’s boss was a big shot in Jiang City, so the manager often acted smugly, and ordinary guests were nothing in his eyes.

Normally, if anyone dared to cause trouble, he would have security throw them out. He definitely wouldn’t be so agreeable, let alone speak so cautiously.

In the girl at the front desk’s eyes, Zhu Lie actually came to make trouble at their hotel, and the manager would definitely not let him go. But never did she expect the manager’s attitude to be so respectful.

”I really didn’t know the threshold of your hotel was so high that I couldn’t even come.” Zhu Lie said coldly.

The manager trembled uncontrollably upon hearing this, and at that moment, what was not clear to him? Presumably, the front desk said something earlier that offended Zhu Lie, making him angry.

”You blind person, haven’t you heard of Brother Lie? Now, apologize to Brother Lie, did you hear?” The manager glared at the front desk girl angrily.

Not yet recovered from the shock, the girl at the front desk showed a touch of panic on her face, hurriedly explaining, ”Manager, I really didn’t do it on purpose. It was him, no, this gentleman insisted on seeing the guest’s information, but guest information cannot be disclosed. That’s the rule!”

”Rule? You’re talking rules in front of Brother Lie, are you mad?” The manager said angrily, his eyes almost popping out.

After scolding the front desk girl, the manager looked at Zhu Lie again, his face immediately showing a fawning smile, ”Brother Lie, which information do you want to see? I’ll check it for you now.”

Zhu Lie didn’t come to cause trouble, he just wanted to quickly find out where Yang Junming was. Since there was a way to know now, he naturally wouldn’t continue to make things difficult for them.
