Chapter 231: Calamity Of Own Making

Bei Feng could barely hold back from laughing aloud. It was actually this fellow.
A few months had passed, and he had already forgotten about this insignificant character. Who would have thought that he would appear before him again?
Dong Chengmo released Nan Ming and went back to Bai Song, recounting the entire sequence of events to him. His face was filled with worry for having alarmed Bai Song.
Bai Song nodded after listening to the story. Since the other side did not come here with the intentions of stirring trouble and was just an ordinary person, it would be fine to just send them away.
“Is this how you do business? How is your hotel still surviving?!”
Nan Ming rubbed his wrists which had already turned red.
“How I conduct my business is none of your concern; I do not need you to teach me! You may leave now. Also, you don’t have to foot the bill.”
Bai Song furrowed his brows and flung his arm out with annoyance.
“What do you mean by that? Do you think that I can’t afford to pay for the meal?!”
Nan Ming nearly fainted on the spot. The humiliation in the other party’s words was too much. Did he just get labelled as a person who eats and runs?
“Zhao Zhen?” Bei Feng’s voice floated over at this moment.
“You are?”
Zhao Zhen turned his head over when he heard his name called, only to see a youth looking at him.
“What era is this already? What’s with that outfit?”
Zhao Zhen mumbled to himself as he looked at Bei Feng’s strange dressing and the long black hair which flowed to his waist.
“Esteemed Lord, you know this person?”
Bai Song asked with uncertainty as he turned to look at Zhao Zhen as well. There was nothing special about the lad at all.
“I suppose you can say that. We’ve even interacted for a brief period before, so my memory of him is rather fresh!” Bei Feng said with a light smile.
“That guy is so handsome! He’s even dressed in some ancient clothing? Perhaps he just finished filming a movie?”
A small crowd had gathered due to Nan Ming’s antics. At this moment, a small group of girls squealed as they fell prey to Bei Feng’s cool light smile.
“Che, he’s not even as good looking as me!” Some guys among the crowd said with saltiness.
Granted, Bei Feng was indeed not a handsome person. However, he was not bad-looking either. In addition, the carefree and calm mannerism he brought out naturally was extremely charming.
Many a time, a person’s temperament and attitude could cause others to look past their physical appearances. Unless of course, one had very distinct looks, strong enough for others to be unable to forget them.
“I don’t wish to see this person still hanging around in Fuzhou in the future. Alright, I’ll leave this to you to settle. Let’s go.” Bei Feng turned his head and said nonchalantly before continuing on his way.
“Understood!”
Bai Song nodded rapidly in acknowledgement. After throwing the matter to Dong Chengmo to settle, he followed behind Bei Feng.
“Oh my god, who is that young man? To think that even the Clan Head is so respectful to him!”
Dong Chengmo had an incredulous look on his face. This was the first time he had seen the Clan Head being so respectful to another person! In that moment, he immediately committed Zhao Zhen’s face to his mind as he prepared to deal with him.
“Lunatic.”
Zhao Zhen cursed under his breath as he looked at how Bei Feng ignored him completely after asking him one question.
“Stop! Are you people treating me like I’m invisible?!”
Nan Ming’s face was red with rage. ‘What kind of broken hotel is this?! Why does everyone from the top management to the waitresses have such rotten attitudes!’
With smoke coming out of his ears, Nan Ming moved to block the group again. However, two security guards quickly ran over and barred his way. At the same time, a pressuring force gushed towards him, causing him to lose all defenses.
Thereafter, he was swiftly ‘escorted’ away and thrown out of the hotel. Zhao Zhen also came running out in a hurry to help Nan Ming and his female companion up.
“Get lost!”
Nan Ming’s face was as black as the bottom of a wok. He pushed Zhao Zhen’s hand away and helped the girl up before storming away.
From his point of view, it was Zhao Zhen who had chosen this sh*tty place to dine at, which caused him to lose so much face. To actually still hope that he would buy the villa from him? Get the hell to the side!
Zhao Zhen was the only person left standing outside of the hotel. His face was completely ashen and filled with depression. The deal which he had spent so much effort to secure was gone just like that?! The tens of thousands he’d sunk into the project had not even surfaced yet!
To Bei Feng, this was merely an interlude in his daily life. But to Zhao Zhen, it was a life-changing event.
Bei Feng was no longer interested in a person like Zhao Zhen right now, because the distance between them was already too vast! Zhao Zhen was like an ant along the road, unable to enter his sights at all.
If he didn’t see the ant, it wouldn’t mean anything. But if he saw it and remembered that this ant once bit him before, he wouldn’t mind sticking a foot out to squish it to death either!
Just a few months ago, when he had nothing to his name and was working as a salesman, because he did not treat Zhao Zhen and the other seniors to a meal, he was suppressed by them and singled out. Zhao Zhen led the others to make things difficult for him, even going as far as to snatch his clients and ruin his deals.
In the end, he did not manage to close a single deal within the few months that he was there, and was even fired from the company due to the designs of Zhao Zhen.
But fast forward a few months, Bei Feng could now directly decide the life or death of Zhao Zhen with a single word! This was the authority and influence he wielded now that his strength had reached a certain level!
As for Nan Ming, the more he thought about the events earlier, the angrier he felt. He was prepared to retaliate with vicious might against it.
“Hello? Is this Chief Feng? Ah, this is Nan Ming, we ate together before!”
Nan Ming scrolled through his phone’s contact list, dialed a number and greeted in a respectful voice.
“Haha, so it’s President Nan, what’s the matter?”
Feng Yang searched his memory for a brief moment before a smile appeared on his face. This was the God of Fortune calling!
“It’s like this, I wish to ask Chief Feng to help me vent my anger and fix a certain hotel. I want to see them wrecked thoroughly! After the matter’s done, I’m willing to fork out five million yuan for Chief Feng to buy some tea!”
Nan Ming said with a vicious gleam in his eyes. Since his face had been slapped so crisply in public, he needed to go back to that place to regain it!
“Haha, everything can be discussed. Which hotel is so blind, to offend President Nan?”
Feng Yang laughed. The method of dealing with the hotel was still up to him in the end. Wrecking it entirely was out of the question, but messing it up should be more than enough. In the end, the hotel would not be able to avoid paying some money to avert the disaster too. By then, both Nan Ming and the hotel would both be eaten up by him.
“White Rainbow Hotel!” Nan Ming gritted his teeth and spat out.
“Okay! I’ll give you a call once the mission is settled.”
Feng Yang sneered as he ended the call. Nan Ming only had vengeance in his heart, and did not even managed to hear the odd tone in Feng Yang’s voice.
“Truly not knowing life from death!”
Feng Yang chuckled coldly as he chucked his phone to the side. It was fine to find trouble with anyone else, but to actually target the Bai family!
Fuzhou was a capital city, and housed all kinds of crouching dragons and hidden tigers. These mighty powers usually behaved in a low-profile manner, but once aggravated, the people who offended them would not even know how they died!
Every government official stationed in Fuzhou had a list of names for the powers that should not be provoked. This was so that the lower level staffs would not offend some troublesome people due to their ignorance. Unless they had concrete evidence of these people committing crimes, even the government would not move to provoke them without reason!
And the Bai family was placed on the top 30 names of those who must not be offended! They could already be considered a peak tier-two family clan in Fuzhou!
After some thought, Feng Yang reached out for his phone again and dialed the number for the Bai family. On the surface, he was still speaking cordially with Nan Ming. But in the blink of an eye, he’d already sold Nan Ming out to the Bai family!
Early the next morning, a group of police officers turned up at Nan Ming’s house and took him away directly.
For a business to grow to such a scale, how could one’s dealings be completely clean? With a bit of investigation, every shady business was dug out with ease. This time, Nan Ming could forget about getting out of jail without spending at least 10 to 20 years squatting inside!
At this moment, Bei Feng’s group was sitting comfortably on a private plane heading to Shennongjia. Indigestion was staring slacked jawed with its doggy eyes glued to the plane’s window. This metallic structure was actually flying in the air! And not only that, it was flying at such a great height! Such a thing was completely inconceivable to it!
