In the security room…

Wang Ge and the rest were gathered here. As there were not many chairs, they could only stand.

“Where’s that person!”

Seeing that Liu He had not returned, Wang Ge questioned the security captain.

“Stand properly. Don’t ask so many questions!”

The security captain roared at him.

Wang Ge was furious after being scolded for the whole night. Thus, he was indignant and immediately said, “You… I know your boss. You should be polite when speaking to me!”

Actually, he didn’t know any boss here. He was just scaring the security captain.

“It doesn’t matter who you know. Stand properly!”

The captain of the security team was still annoyed, so he simply rebutted Wang Ge. He was completely unconvinced by his statement.

“So you even know our boss? Look at how cowardly you are. The one who knows our boss has already gone home to sleep!”

“Are you trying to scare me, you idiot?”

The security chief thought to himself.

…

“Little brother, he was the one who called the police.”

The hotel manager brought Ye Feng to the security room and saw two people standing at the door.

The older one of the two was scolding the other person.

“Little Chu, what’s wrong with you? Why didn’t you use your brain?”

“Brother Zhang, I was just doing things according to the rules.” Little Chu said aggrievedly, “The first rule of security that Captain asked me to memorize was to call the police immediately if something like this happens.”

“You… blockhead!”

Brother Zhang said angrily, “Why are you so silly, always following the rules?”

“Are there so many law-abiding people in this world?”

“Rules are dead, but people are alive. You have to be more flexible!”

As he spoke, Brother Zhang saw the hotel manager walk over and immediately shouted, “Hurry up and apologize to the manager. You’d better promise not to do it again next time!”

“Next time? Will there be a next time?”

“Come over tomorrow and settle your salary at the finance department. After that, you don’t have to come over anymore.”

The hotel manager pointed at Little Chu with an unhappy expression and spoke angrily.

He had promised the President over the phone that it would be fine, but now, this happened. If the President knew about this, he might punish him!

“Manager, Little Chu is new here… How about giving him a chance? I’ll take care of him later…”

Brother Zhang immediately tried to smooth things over upon hearing this.

“Alright, don’t blame him.”

Ye Feng watched from the side for a while and spoke up for Little Chu.

The reason why he helped Little Chu was very simple.

Indeed, there were not many people who abided by the rules in this world. Therefore, everyone who abided by the rules should not be treated this way.

When Little Chu heard this, he cast a grateful gaze at Ye Feng.

Since Ye Feng had spoken, the hotel manager naturally wouldn’t make things difficult for Little Chu. Hence, he said, “You heard him. Let me tell you, there won’t be a next time!”

“If something like this happens again in the future, you will have to ask for instructions first. Do you understand?”

“Why are you still standing there? Go and get a pack of Chunghwa cigarettes for my brother.”

After chasing Little Chu away, the hotel manager said to Brother Zhang, “Old Zhang, you go on duty first.”

“Also, you’re a veteran in the team. Teach them well!”

“Yes, yes, yes.”

Old Zhang nodded upon hearing this and left.

Then, Ye Feng looked around and asked a strange question. “Are there surveillance cameras in your private rooms?”

“No.” The hotel manager immediately said, “Our hotel has always prioritized the privacy of our guests…”

However, before he could say anything else, he seemed to be lacking in confidence, so he made a call.

After a while, the hotel manager hung up the phone and said, “I’ve asked the room manager at our hotel. There are no surveillance cameras.”

“There are no surveillance cameras…” Ye Feng rubbed his face and muttered to himself, “Then I can still manipulate the matter.” ”

“By the way, do you have surveillance cameras at your security room?”

Closely after, Ye Feng added on, “I meant, do you have surveillance cameras inside your security room?”

“There used to be surveillance cameras inside, but they just spoiled recently. I haven’t changed them yet,” said the hotel manager.

“How about this?” Ye Feng pondered for a moment. “Get your people to go out first, then wait outside for a few minutes.”

Although the hotel manager found it strange, he still nodded and did as he was told.

“Brother Wang, what should we do?”

Yang Xiao asked quietly when he saw the security captain walk out.

“What else can we do? Didn’t you hear the hotel call the police? Let’s wait for them.”

Then, a fierce glare flashed past Wang Ge’s eyes. “When the police arrive, our chance will come!”

“Let’s see how they will explain themselves after beating others up like this!”

“But Brother Wang…” Yang Xiao was not happy. Instead, he was worried. “We made Fan Jiawei drunk. If the police come, won’t we be in trouble?”

“You were the one who gave him the drinks. It has nothing to do with me.” When Wang Ge heard this, he quickly cleared his name. Then, after considering that he could not easily abandon Yang Xiao, his bootlicker, he comforted him. “Don’t worry. At most, I’ll pay for his treatment.”

“Anyway, let’s get these people detained first!”

Wang Ge was filled with anger today. When he talked about the other party being detained, he instantly felt much better.

He seemed to have already seen Ye Feng’s dejected expression when he would be detained.

Upon hearing this, Yang Xiao sighed and didn’t say anything else.

At that moment, the door opened and Ye Feng walked in.

Wang Ge panicked upon seeing this.

Wasn’t this the leader of the thug trio?

Wang Ge treated Ye Feng as the leader.

His men had been so aggressive. How could their leader be any better?

There was no one else in the security room.

Seeing Ye Feng walk towards him, Wang Ge quickly took a few steps back. “What are you trying to do?”

However, Ye Feng ignored him and walked towards Yang Xiao.

Although Yang Xiao had been beaten up quite badly, only the left side of his face was slightly swollen. If one didn’t look closely, they wouldn’t be able to tell that he was injured.

Thus, Ye Feng immediately felt more confident.

This wouldn’t even be considered as a severe injury.

Then, Ye Feng took a deep breath and said, “Hit me.”

“What?”

Yang Xiao was stunned.

“I said, hit me.”

Ye Feng spoke fiercely.

Unexpectedly, Yang Xiao shook his head like a rattle-drum. “No. I know that you’re just looking for an opportunity to beat me up.”

“Are you really not going to fight?”

“No!”

“Heh!” Ye Feng was anxious. Then, he grabbed Yang Xiao’s hand before punching himself in the face.

Then, he took out his phone and took a photo. However, he seemed unsatisfied. After thinking for a while, he closed his eyes and made the painful decision to punch himself.

Bang!

This punch could be said to be full of strength. It simply caused his nose to bleed.

This time, Ye Feng nodded in satisfaction and left without even wiping the blood from his nose or looking back.

Yang Xiao was stunned by Ye Feng’s actions. He was simply dumbstruck.

“Is this person an idiot?”

Wang Ge touched his head and became even more determined.

To be so ruthless to himself… Indeed, Ye Feng was a vicious person!

…

Outside the door, the lobby manager looked at Ye Feng and panicked. “Little brother, did they hit you?”

“No.” Ye Feng chuckled. “I did it myself.”

“This…”

The manager was also a little confused.

“This is proof that we fought each other!”

Ye Feng pointed at the blood on his face and was about to laugh when he took a deep breath.

“Ouch! Ow… It hurts.”

Upon hearing this, the hotel manager quickly reacted.

“Ah, yes, yes, yes. You fought each other. You guys fought each other!”

With that, he glanced at the security captain. “You should know what to say now.”

“Got it.”

At that moment, the security captain reacted and quickly nodded.

“Yeah.”

Ye Feng thought for a moment. There seemed to be nothing else he could do, so he found a stool and squatted down, quietly waiting for the police to arrive.
