"You?"

Wei Lan bit her cherry lips, her eyes shimmering with a watery gaze, "Are you really treating my sprain?"

It feels more like you're flirting with me.

Couldn't we just get this over with? Do you have to "torture" me like this?

"Does it hurt here?"

Li Feng looked up at Wei Lan, and Wei Lan bit her lips without making a sound. Li Feng could roughly guess her thoughts.

"It seems this isn't it!"

Li Feng said, changing positions, adding a bit more force with his fingers, and Wei Lan could no longer hold it in.

Hmm.

"That's more like it, you need to cry out when it hurts, otherwise, you shouldn't shy away from seeking treatment."

Li Feng continued to knead Wei Lan's ankle as he spoke.

Meanwhile, outside Li Feng's room, Dragon Guards were secretly standing guard, while Wang Qian had a room opened next door.

The hotel manager stood behind Wang Qian.

"Master Qian, the people in the conference room have mostly left, but some still want to see Young Master Feng."

Wang Qian took a sip of his drink, "Only a few?"

"Yes."

"What about those who went over there?" Wang Qian asked.

"Just a few, including that Wang Kaixuan." The hotel manager reported, "Master Qian, here's the list. Most seem to have adopted a neutral stance."

Wang Qian glanced at the list and sneered repeatedly.

"Neutral?"

"Since when is neutrality not a kind of betrayal? If they can't see the situation clearly now, it just means they're asking for trouble. Since they think they have more people and we can't do anything to them."

"Hah, let's wait and see. If we don't make them feel the pain this time, they'll think of betraying us again."

Wang Qian sneered coldly.

"Master Qian, about the few people outside wanting to see Young Master Feng?" The hotel manager observed Wang Qian's expression, aware this was the man handling finances for Young Master Feng, who acted like a bootlicker in front of him.

But here, he's the Master Qian.

One of the four kings of Huacheng, and one of the patrons of the four major banks.

"Let them wait. Mistakes come with minor lessons; thinking a simple apology will resolve things isn't right."

"Master Qian, should we appease them a bit? After all, coming to express loyalty now shows they're siding with Young Master Feng." The hotel manager carefully suggested.

Wang Qian stared coldly at the hotel manager: "I said let them wait outside. Just because they want to see Young Master Feng doesn't mean he has to see them."

"Is it that you don't understand the situation, or was I not clear enough?"

"Yes, yes."

The hotel manager, sweating profusely, quickly exited the room.

"Hmph, real gold doesn't fear the test of fire. It's in hardship that true sentiments are revealed. A perfect opportunity to see who's genuinely siding with Young Master Feng, who's just a fence-sitter, and who's the enemy."

Wang Qian said with a sneer while picking up the name list from the table and then picked up his phone.

"Are you looking for Li Feng?"

In the Outer Heaven hotel lobby, the receptionist looked at a stunning woman standing before her, hesitating a bit.

"Yes, can you check which room he's in?"

"Beautiful lady, we can't disclose guest information at will. If you know the person, you can contact them directly."

"Hmph, don't waste my time. Contact Li Feng immediately. I know this place is his, don't tell me you can't reach him."

"Also, tell him my name is Xiao Mingyue, and he will see me."

Xiao Mingyue asserted towards the receptionist.

"What?"

The receptionists exchanged glances.

"If you don't want me to wreck your hotel, you'll contact him right now."

Xiao Mingyue swept her gaze over the receptionists, void of any pleasantries. She had taken the subway back to Huacheng early in the morning, just to find Li Feng and calm things down.

"Notify the manager."

In no time.

The hotel manager emerged from the elevator hurriedly, walking to the reception with a grim face: "Who wishes to see Young Master Feng?"

The receptionist pointed at Xiao Mingyue not far away.

Xiao Mingyue also saw the hotel manager and stepped forward directly: "I want to see Li Feng, is there a problem?"

The hotel manager sized up Xiao Mingyue.

Her attire was evidently not cheap, and her aura far exceeded the value of her clothes.

Branded clothes can be bought with money, but cultivating such a demeanor takes much longer than a day or two.

"And who might you be?"

Outer Heaven is after all a five-star hotel, and as the hotel manager, reading people is a top-notch skill; otherwise, he wouldn't have this position. Her aura and attire were certainly not something a common socialite would possess.

"Xiao Mingyue."

The moment the hotel manager heard the name Xiao Mingyue, it rang a bell. At this point, the female bodyguard behind Xiao Mingyue snorted coldly.

"Perhaps you haven't heard of my boss's name, but her renown must be familiar to you, the Sea City Demon."

Gulp.

The hotel manager instantly recognized who she was, swallowing hard. This woman had just the same impressive reputation as Master Qian.

No, she was even more formidable than Master Qian.

While Master Qian held control over a quarter of Huacheng's banking shares, this Sea City Demon oversaw over eighty percent of Sea City's banking.

This was tantamount to a regional financial monopoly.

Sea City is one of the four top-tier cities of Yan Country, and as an economic hub, Huacheng couldn't compare to it.

"Miss Xiao, I can't decide on you meeting Young Master Feng. I can pass the message along for you, would that be acceptable?"

The hotel manager became significantly more deferential because she wasn't someone to be offended.

Xiao Mingyue said to the hotel manager, "Hmm, I've never had to go this far to meet someone. If you can't decide, then forget it."

"Go and check which room Li Feng is staying in."

"Yes, Miss."

The female bodyguard behind Xiao Mingyue nodded and directly leapt over the front desk. The receptionist gasped but was pushed aside by the bodyguard, who then began typing rapidly on the computer.

"Miss, found it, the Presidential Suite Number One."

Xiao Mingyue didn't waste any time and led her people towards the elevator. Seeing this, the hotel manager became anxious and quickly picked up the internal phone to inform Wang Qian of what had happened in the lobby.

"Miss Xiao, is there a reason you're looking for Young Master Feng?"

Wang Qian stepped out and intercepted Xiao Mingyue in the corridor. Xiao Mingyue glanced at Wang Qian: "Fatty, move aside, I'm here to see Li Feng, none of your business."

"What you're saying isn't quite right, Miss Xiao. Young Master Feng isn't someone you can just see if you want...!"

Before he could finish, Xiao Mingyue raised her hand and slapped him.

Smack.

"Move."

Wang Qian was stunned after getting slapped, not having been hit in the face for years. His chubby face turned grim and variable.

With any other woman, Wang Qian would make sure she knew his strength.

But with this woman, Wang Qian didn't dare show any temper.

"Miss Xiao, you really can't go in."
