The surveillance footage quickly identified the private room where Li He was located.
Wang Zhenbo put down his phone and said, "Director Yang, we've found him. The kid who made a move is in the private room opposite ours."
"Let's go, Director Yang, we need to teach this kid a lesson—some people are not to be messed with."
Yang Kangji was very satisfied with Wang Zhenbo's handling, which restored some of his pride.
As the two walked out of the private room, the club's lobby manager had already been waiting with the security guards.
Mr. Peng was not at the club and couldn't make it over, so he assigned the lobby manager to handle the matter.
"Director Yang." The manager was a bit surprised and angry when he saw Yang Kangji's swollen face.
Where did this reckless young man come from, daring to assault the deputy director of the National Development and Reform Commission? Is he tired of living?
Wang Zhenbo said, "Manager Zhang, lead the way."
"It's this way."
Manager Zhang pointed to the room opposite and instructed the security, "Go, open the door."
The security guard went up and kicked the door open.
Li He and his group were happily singing and drinking with the girls.
The door was suddenly kicked open, and they pretended to be surprised and looked over.
In the next second.
Over a dozen security guards streamed in and stood against the wall, each resting one hand on their batons, fiercely eyeing the group.
Manager Zhang stood at the door, bowed, and said, "Director Yang, please come in."
Yang Kangji walked in front, with Wang Zhenbo following. After they entered, Manager Zhang followed suit.
Once inside the room, Manager Zhang immediately turned off the music and turned on all the lights.
The room suddenly became quiet and bright.
The sudden entry of security guards frightened the girls a bit, causing them to sit on the sofa, unsure of what to do.
Yang Kangji scanned everyone in the room, finally landing his gaze on Li He, squinting as he said, "Kid, do you remember me?"
Li He sneered, "What, you called people to beat me up?"
Zhao Qian and the others feigned confusion, "Li He, what's going on?"
Li He calmly said, "This bald guy bumped into me in the bathroom. Before I could say anything, he started cursing and even wanted to hit me, but he was no match, so I beat him up instead."
Yang Kangji was furious!
This kid actually called him a bald guy!
Zhao Qian and the others suddenly understood and said, "That's it?"
They looked at him and said, "Hey, old man, you're in the wrong here. How do you have the nerve to come looking for trouble?"
"What, just because you have more people, you want to bully us?"
Zhao Qian chuckled, taking out his phone, "This is a governed society. If you act rashly, we'll call the police, okay?"
"Call the police?"
Wang Zhenbo looked at them as if they were fools, "Kid, do you even know who you're messing with?"
Li He asked, "Who?"
"The deputy director of the National Development and Reform Commission!"
"Oh, I'm so scared."
Li He sarcastically replied, "What? The deputy director of the National Development and Reform Commission hits people, and I can't hit back? What era is this, using your status to pressure people, isn't that disgraceful?"
"If there's nothing else, get out quickly, don't disturb me while I'm singing, or I'll call the police."
Wang Zhenbo laughed loudly, "Call the police? Go ahead, do it now. Let's see when the police come, if they arrest us or you!"
"A bunch of ignorant brats, don't even know where they are!"
He pointed at Li He and said, "It was you who did it, wasn't it? Come over here, kneel, and kowtow a few times to Director Yang. Once Director Yang feels satisfied, he might let you off."
He continued, "Don't say I didn't warn you, Director Yang is not someone you should cross. If you really piss him off, selling your parents' house might not even save you!"
Yang Kangji stood there silently smoking, looking like a big boss behind the scenes.
Li He's face darkened, releasing the girl in his arms as he walked up to Yang Kangji, saying, "Director Yang, is it?"
Yang Kangji gave a slight snort without replying, as if speaking even a word to him was an insult to himself.
"The deputy director of the National Development and Reform Commission, quite impressive?"
Li He tilted his head, sneered, "I'm here to have fun, not to look for trouble."
"Better disappear from my sight before I get angry, or don't blame me for taking you out."
Li He's words sounded arrogant, but to them, it was a bluff, putting on airs.
In their eyes, if this kid really had means, he wouldn't joke about calling the police.
"Not leaving?"
Li He nodded and then looked at the lobby manager, "You're from the club, right? Does your club help others bully guests?"
Manager Zhang looked at him as if he were looking at a dead man, "Kid, kneel down and admit your mistake, stop struggling. Director Yang is not someone you can afford to cross."
"I can't afford to cross him?"
Li He laughed heartily and turned to Zhao Qian and the others, "Did you hear that? This guy says I can't afford to cross a small deputy director of the National Development and Reform Commission."
He suddenly stopped laughing, pointing vaguely at Director Yang, "Baldy, I'm telling you, you messed with the wrong person!"
After speaking, he took out his phone and scrolled for a number.
Before dialing, he said, "Baldy, I'm giving you one last chance, leave now and I won't hold it against you. Otherwise, once I make this call, you'll have no chance to regret."
However, the more arrogant he sounded, the more it seemed like a pretense, a desperate struggle in Wang Zhenbo and the others' eyes.
"You won't cry until you see the coffin, I'll fulfill your wish."
Li He pressed the dial button.
This call was to Song Guanchao.
It was mainly to stall for time.
The call connected, and Li He directly said, "I'm having some trouble here..."
Song Guanchao said, "I'm already here, hold on for another two minutes."
"Okay, got it."
Song Guanchao hung up the phone, watching Director Huang get out of the car.
"Secretary Song, that Mr. Li..."
"Mr. Li is in room 310." Song Guanchao quietly said, "Director Huang, this is a rare opportunity, make sure you seize it."
"Understood, understood."
Director Huang nodded gratefully, "I'll treat Secretary Song to a meal later, but I need to hurry up now, or it'll be too late if they really get into a fight."
Watching his hurried figure, Song Guanchao smiled faintly.
Yang Kangji, this time you're done for.
...
Director Huang didn't take the elevator but used the stairs, reaching the third floor and turning a corner, he saw several security guards standing outside room 310.
He quickly walked over and slowed his pace as he passed the door.
Inside the room, Li He had finished his call, sneering, "Yang, you're dead."
Wang Zhenbo sniggered, "This brat really knows how to act tough."
He raised his hand slightly, "Press him onto the coffee table."
Several security guards immediately stepped forward.
Just as they were about to make a move, a puzzled voice suddenly sounded from the doorway, "Yang Kangji?"
The security guards stopped, and both Yang Kangji and his group looked outside.
Yang Kangji was stunned, and Wang Zhenbo was also taken aback.
"Director Huang, you're here too." Wang Zhenbo quickly stepped forward.
"Mr. Wang?"
Director Huang expressed surprise as he walked in, scanning the room and asking, "What's going on?"
As he spoke, his gaze swept over, and when he saw Li He, his expression suddenly turned serious.
