Chapter 1031: Chapter 1048: Ma Jinhong
Guo Xuefeng was afraid of displeasing Ye Feng and quickly spoke out. At this moment, Guo Xuefeng was completely intimidated by Ye Feng. In Guo Xuefeng’s mind, Ye Feng had long become a mysterious, powerful, and invincible presence.
Therefore, in front of Ye Feng, Guo Xuefeng was reverent and respectful, completely lacking the arrogance he had yesterday.
Ye Feng gently shook his head: "No need. Since it’s work, let’s go together..."
After hearing Ye Feng’s words, Guo Xuefeng gratefully nodded: "Thank you, Mr. Ye..."
The friction with Guo Xuefeng yesterday wasn’t taken to heart by Ye Feng. Ye Feng also noticed that Guo Xuefeng wasn’t a petty person, and today he saw that the way Wu Kexin and Li Xue’er looked at each other had completely changed.
There were no other ideas anymore, just as if looking at ordinary friends or as partners.
After a short while, Ye Feng and the others boarded the luxury cruiser, and their rooms were the most upscale on the ship. Inside the room, Ye Feng inquired about the small island they were heading to.
Wu Kexin said, "Ye Feng, brother, the island we’re going to is called Dongxuan Island. In the history of our Dragon Country’s East Sea, there’s never been any record of this island. It’s as if the island suddenly appeared out of thin air last year and was discovered by our people, so we named it Dongxuan Island.
And the herbs we’re going to find, after being refined by Elder Liu Shengyuan, can produce a miraculous beauty and skincare cream. We’re going to find those herbs this time!"
"Oh?" After hearing Wu Kexin’s words, Ye Feng’s eyes showed a hint of interest.
An island that suddenly appeared, with magical herbs, perhaps this journey would lead to some interesting discoveries.
To reach the island, it requires two days and nights on the cruiser, so Ye Feng and his crew spent those two days and nights on the Eastward Thousand Miles. Shortly, it was time to eat.
Ye Feng brought Wu Kexin and Li Xue’er to the restaurant, where Guo Xuefeng was already waiting for them. At that moment, Guo Xuefeng had booked the best private dining room and had ordered an abundant feast.
Delicacies from land and sea, premium wines, everything one could wish for. It’s undeniable that Guo Xuefeng is a very capable person.
Ye Feng and his group sat down, eating and chatting.
But at this moment, a commotion came from outside the door.
"Damn it, didn’t I already tell your manager before that I want to book a luxury private room and asked you to wait for me for half an hour? I’m telling you now, I just arrived, and you’re saying there’s no private room left?" At this time, outside the door, a young man with yellow hair, accompanied by a few young men and women, was shouting loudly and angrily, a look of madness in his eyes.
This man’s name is Ma Jinhong, son of a rich businessman from Guangdu, with family assets worth over a billion. He is the son of a nouveau riche, acting wildly and arrogantly.
At this moment, the restaurant’s manager came to Ma Jinhong’s side and quickly said, "Mr. Ma, please don’t be angry. Our luxury private rooms are not available for reservation; it’s first-come-first-served. Didn’t I already tell you over the phone? Now the private room is occupied by guests, but I can immediately arrange an upscale room for you; it’s not much different. Is that acceptable?"
"To hell with that!" Ma Jinhong shouted angrily, raised his hand, and slapped the manager heavily. A scorching sensation descended, making the manager extremely uncomfortable and very angry.
The manager looked at Ma Jinhong with fury, while Ma Jinhong, also enraged, lifted his hand and slapped the manager’s face again, cursing loudly: "You dog! What’s with your look? Are you not satisfied after I hit you? I’m telling you, my cousin is Guo Xuerui, the third young master of the Guo Family from Guangdu. Don’t forget that the Eastward Thousand Miles belongs to the Guo Family.
If you’re not convinced, believe me when I say I’ll call my cousin and have him fire you!"
After hearing Ma Jinhong’s words, the manager’s face changed drastically.
The manager knew that his entire family’s livelihood depended on this job. If he were really fired, then who would support his family? The manager absolutely wouldn’t allow such a thing to happen.
Ma Jinhong shouted loudly: "Don’t doubt what I’m saying; Guo Xuerui is indeed my cousin!"
After speaking, Ma Jinhong took out his phone, flipped to a photo, and showed it to the manager, who saw it was indeed the third young master of the Guo Family, Guo Xuerui. The photo was not Photoshopped.
Immediately, the manager’s anger completely dissipated, and he looked at Ma Jinhong with fear: "Mr. Ma, don’t make things difficult for me. These are the rules set by the Guo Family themselves. Now the private room is occupied by guests, and I really have no other options. I can’t possibly make them leave in a rush!"
At this moment, a man and two women walked out of the private room. This man and these two women were none other than Ye Feng, Wu Kexin, and Li Xue’er.
Seeing the three of them, the restaurant manager froze, while Ma Jinhong’s eyes were completely fixed on Li Xue’er and Wu Kexin. He was deeply attracted by the beauty and temperament of Li Xue’er and Wu Kexin.
His eyes continuously scanned Li Xue’er and Wu Kexin, looking very lecherous.
Wu Kexin and Li Xue’er saw Ma Jinhong’s gaze and their eyes clearly showed a look of disgust.
Ye Feng looked at the manager indifferently and asked, "What’s going on that’s so noisy?"
At this moment, the restaurant manager ran to Ye Feng’s side and whispered in his ear: "Sir, it’s like this. This Mr. Ma is interested in your private room. Could you please finish your meal quickly? We really have no other options; Mr. Ma is not an ordinary person. He’s someone we cannot afford to offend. After you finish, please quickly vacate the private room for him!"
After hearing the manager’s words, Ye Feng coldly smiled, feeling inexplicably amused: "There’s actually a time limit for dining at the restaurant, huh? How many minutes do you need us to finish and leave?"
The manager said helplessly: "Sir, could you please finish in ten minutes? Vacate the private room in ten minutes. We’ll give you a 50% discount on today’s expenses; would that be acceptable?"
At this moment, Li Xue’er and Wu Kexin felt a surge of anger rising from the bottom of their hearts.
