The middle-aged man’s wife jabbed at his forehead angrily. “Do you think my nephew is as useless as you are? Is there anything he doesn’t know?”
As she said this, she turned her face and forced a smile at Zhang Cunyi. “I’m sorry that you have to witness this. Cunyi, you’re so capable. Do you have a way to deal with that group of shameless b*tches? At least get back my money!”
Zhang Cunyi pondered for a moment and did not reply immediately. One of the men next to him gently touched his arm and winked at him.
Zhang Cunyi understood and went to one side with him. The man asked in a low voice, “Leader, is this the Disanxian that Li Yundong owns?”
Zhang Cunyi nodded. “It should be!”
The man opened his mouth wide. “So it’s that Li Yundong who runs the tea house and invited half of the province’s leaders to his opening ceremony? Please don’t tell me he’s the Li Yundong you fought with at Fox Zen School on Tianjiao Mountain?”
A cold chill flashed through Zhang Cunyi’s eyes. He snorted and said, “It must be the same person! Only he would be running around with a group of fox spirits. Only they could do such a thing! Hmph, I don’t know how Li Yundong, the leader, controls his disciples. He shouldn’t ask them to bring chaos to the world especially when he knows full well that they are fox spirits!”
A trace of anger appeared quickly on his face, and he continued in a deep voice, “I’ve only heard that the Fox Zen School is harmful to the human world, but I’ve never seen it for myself. I hadn’t expected that we would meet at this time! Li Yundong can’t control this group of fox spirits, and I’ll help him!”
The man next to Zhang Cunyi whispered, “Leader, are we really going to take it over?”
Zhang Cunyi said without hesitation, “Of course! Otherwise, why have we been learning kung fu?”
The man said cautiously, “But leader, we are no match for Li Yundong. Last time…”
A defiant look flashed over Zhang Cunyi’s face. He snorted and said, “I’ll go back to ask my father for his Sanhuang Sword. Humph, he used to be afraid that I would do something evil with it. This time, I’ll kill demons with that sword and enforce justice on behalf of heaven. He won’t discipline me, will he? I don’t believe that I will lose to Li Yundong with the Sanhuang Sword!”
The man was immediately overjoyed. “Great! The Taoist assembly of our Qingcheng sect will increase its chances of winning!”
Almost at the same time, Li Yundong, who had flown to Dongwu City, was still unaware that Su Chan and the little foxes had caused a big disaster. He followed the name card Du Fei gave him and found the location of the Quanzhen Dragon Sect in Long Men Building, Dongwu City.
Li Yundong came to the towering building and looked up at it. He could see that it was about twenty floors high, with a unique shape and an extraordinary style. In particular, the two imposing words “Long Men” at the top were very conspicuous.
Seeing this, Li Yundong sighed in his heart. “It’s worthy of being the second largest Taoist sect. It has such a magnificent building in this downtown area where every inch of land is worth its weight in gold! It’s amazing!”
As soon as Li Yundong stepped through the entrance, he saw that the front hall was decorated magnificently. The huge chandelier above his head was bright and elegant, like an inverted galaxy, dazzling all of the visitors. Under his feet was a layer of high-hanging glass, under which there was a mist surrounded by clouds, making everyone feel like they were stepping on clouds and stepping into a fairyland.
Li Yundong’s heart was filled with wonder as he walked further in. After taking a few steps, he heard a noise coming from the front desk of the hall. Three gorgeous women were gathering around the front desk and shouting, “He is not free? Are you kidding? Last time we came, you said we needed to make an appointment. When we asked you about an appointment, you told us that you had already made an appointment for the month after next! Well, we’ve come again the month after the next. Isn’t it now the month after the next? You’re actually telling us again to wait until the month after the next? Hey, you can’t make fools of us like this, okay? Where’s Du Fei? Have him come out. It seems he doesn’t dare to take our business!”
The lady at the front desk was being besieged by these women. There was a trace of disdain in her eyes, but she still maintained a polite and respectful smile on her face as she said, “Mrs. Li, Mrs. Ma, Mrs. Sun, we didn’t lie to you on purpose, the appointment book really is full, and it is simply packed until the month after the next. Mr. Du is not available, there is nothing we can do!”
Li Yundong looked over and saw that Mrs. Li in a mink coat was obviously a person with authority. She was about thirty-seven or thirty-eight years old, but because she was well-maintained, she looked like she was twenty-seven or twenty-eight years old. Although her figure was tightly wrapped in the mink coat, he could still see the exquisiteness beneath. Out of the three women, she looked the youngest, her voice was the highest, and she was the most open-minded.
Mrs. Li shouted, “I don’t care. Let me take a look at the appointment. I can’t believe that I came here twice and you’re still fobbing me off. How can anyone be that busy?”
The lady smiled and replied, “I’m sorry, Mrs. Li. We have a rule that says we can’t reveal Mr. Du’s appointments. They’re his own private affairs.”
Mrs. Li was furious. Her voice was so loud that everyone in the hall turned to look at her. “What can’t be revealed? I think you are making fun of us! We came all the way from Tiannan City to Dongwu City because of his reputation. Why does Du Fei treat us like this? Do you even know who I am?”
The lady smiled reservedly and said, “I know. You are the fourth concubine of the chairman and president of Shen Wancai from the Wancai Group. Am I right, Mrs. Li?”
Hearing this, Li Yundong, who was standing to one side, almost laughed aloud.
It turned out that she was an acquaintance, Shen Wancai’s fourth wife… Mrs. Li? What was going on? If she was Shen Wancai’s wife, why was she called Mrs. Li?
Li Yundong thought for a while, but soon understood. “Oh, fourth concubine. She has no status. She can’t be called Mrs. Shen like the eldest wife, so she can only be called by her surname——Mrs. Li…”
Upon understanding this, Li Yundong smiled and thought in his heart, “You don’t need to make fun of others in this way. The lady at the front desk is so eloquent! Awesome!”
This title “Mrs. Li” obviously dug at Shen Wancai’s fourth concubine’s sore spot. It was understandable for someone to call her this in daily life, but she hadn’t expected to be humiliated by a receptionist!
Mrs. Li was suddenly filled with anger, so enraged that she trembled all over. She pointed at the receptionist and said in a shaky voice, “What, what did you say? I want to see your boss Du Fei. I will complain about you!”
The lady’s face remained unchanged, and she simply smiled politely. “Mrs. Li, I welcome your complaints about me, but you have to make an appointment in advance and then tell them to Mr. Du directly!”
Mrs. Li’s voice suddenly rose by an octave. “Why do I need to make an appointment just to complain?”
The receptionist carried on smiling politely as she said, “That’s just the way it is. He’s fully booked until the end of next month!”
Hearing this, Li Yundong finally couldn’t help laughing loudly.
His obvious amusement immediately made Mrs. Li and the others look at him unkindly. Mrs. Li angrily shouted at Li Yundong, “What are you laughing at? Who are you?”
Li Yundong calmed himself, turned serious, and said gravely, “My last name is Li. Hello, Mrs. Li.”
As soon as he said that, he unconsciously took advantage of the rich lady and the receptionist couldn’t help laughing. The two women beside Mrs. Li also couldn’t help cracking up, but soon as they stopped. “What nonsense are you spewing! You can’t make such a joke!” Mrs. Sun spat.
Li Yundong looked aggrieved. “I’m not talking nonsense. My last name is Li…” After that, he smiled at Mrs. Li and said, “Mrs. Li, am I right?”
The receptionist couldn’t help tittering again. She covered her mouth and turned around, trying to hide her response. Mrs. Li, however, was trembling with anger. She pointed at Li Yundong and said angrily, “You, you, you little b*stard! who do you think you are? How dare you humiliate me like this? Just wait for me to get my revenge!”
With that, she pointed to the receptionist and said, “You may also wait for my revenge!!”
Mrs. Li took out her phone from her small bag and dialed while shivering and cursing. “Deep breath. You are brave. Keep it in mind!”
The receptionist glanced at Mrs. Li with deep contempt in her eyes, then turned to Li Yundong and said with a smile, “Mr. Li, how can I help you?”
Li Yundong responded good-naturedly, “I’m here for Du Fei.”
Mrs. Li, who was dialing and waiting for the call to connect, suddenly interjected with a sneer, “You need to make an appointment! I can’t even see him, so forget it!”
The lady on the front desk ignored her and asked with the same courteous smile, “Do you want to see Mr. Du Fei? Have you made an appointment?”
Li Yundong shook his head with a smile. “No.”
The receptionist could only say apologetically, “In that case, I’m sorry, Mr. Li. I can’t let you see Mr. Du without an appointment. Why don’t you register and I’ll make an appointment for you?”
At this time, Mrs. Li interrupted abruptly, “You’ll have to wait two months!”
Li Yundong glanced at her, shook his head wryly, and said to the receptionist, “Seeing Du Fei sure isn’t easy. This guy, next time he comes to find me, I will also make him book an appointment and have him come back the month after next!”
Standing next to him, Mrs. Li heard Li Yundong’s proud tone. It was as difficult as climbing up to the sky for an ordinary person to see Du Fei. He was actually acting as if he was talking about some small vendor at a roadside stall. He had come to Du Fei because he looked up to him.
Mrs. Li couldn’t help but sneer. “You? Why don’t you take a good look at yourself? Who do you think you are?”
Li Yundong turned around and smiled politely. “I’m Li Yundong, Mrs. Li. Nice to meet you…”
Mrs. Li hadn’t been expecting to be taken advantage of by this guy again. She was so angry that she rolled her eyes and almost stopped breathing.
At this time, the receptionist suddenly stared at Li Yundong with wide eyes, asking tentatively, “Mr. Li, just now you said your name is… Li Yundong?”
Li Yundong smiled and said, “Yes, Li Yundong, meaning cloud from the east.”
The receptionist suddenly became excited. She quickly rushed out from the front desk, producing a notebook and a pen from behind her like a magician. She smiled and said, “You are the famous Zhenren Li. Oh, I have heard a lot about you! I had thought that you looked a little familiar just now! I admire you so much! Hurry up and sign this for me, please!”
Li Yundong was stunned. He looked at the notebook and pen being proffered to him and asked in confusion, “What, what do you mean? Do you know me?”
The receptionist winked at Li Yundong and whispered, “Our Great master Du Fei has told me about you. He says he admires you very much, and the battle of Mount Tianling made you known to all, let alone at Mount Gezao. Ah, we all feel the yearning for these things! No matter what, you have to give me your autograph. You are the most popular person in our generation now!”
Only then did Li Yundong realize that the receptionist at the front desk, who was dressed professionally and looked beautiful, was actually practicing Xiuzhen!
But, a Xiuzhenist was also pursuing a star?
