Jiang Yi found the reporters strange.
They knew that Zhangsun Hao was someone they could not afford to offend, yet they still came to the Royal Hotel to make trouble, making Zhangsun Hao's reputation increasingly notorious.
If his guess was correct, someone must have been orchestrating them from the shadows.
Otherwise, they wouldn't have had the audacity.
"Mr. Jiang, the young lady wants you to go to her office upstairs," the hotel manager walked over to Jiang Yi.
"Is she the one helping me and Shen Lu?" Jiang Yi asked.
"Yes!"
The hotel manager nodded. "The young lady was originally here to inspect the hotel, but she saw Zhangsun Hao causing trouble for you and was angered. So, she helped you deal with Zhangsun Hao and vent your anger."
Upon hearing this, Jiang Yi understood everything!
"Were those reporters also brought by her?" Jiang Yi continued to ask.
"Yes!"
The hotel manager nodded, then said, "Mr. Jiang, I'll handle the situation in the lobby!"
"Alright!"
Jiang Yi smiled and walked upstairs with Shen Lu.
Soon, Jiang Yi and Shen Lu arrived at Dongfang Mei's office.
Dongfang Mei was admiring her handiwork on her phone.
Seeing Jiang Yi arrive, she placed the phone on the desk and looked at Jiang Yi and Shen Lu, saying, "Now, I estimate that everyone in the capital knows that Zhangsun Hao is a scoundrel who bullies the weak. There are videos of Zhangsun Hao bullying people all over the internet. This is more satisfying than beating him up."
"It is indeed very satisfying!" Jiang Yi chuckled.
"This matter has blown up quite a bit, and I estimate Zhangsun Xiong will be displeased. You should go and see Zhangsun Xiong!" Dongfang Mei said to Jiang Yi.
Dongfang Mei was worried that she might enrage Zhangsun Xiong.
"Alright!"
After speaking, Jiang Yi left Dongfang Mei's office.
At this time, in a private room on the second floor.
Zhangsun Xiong was sitting in a chair, drinking tea.
Zhangsun Xiong was already aware of what had happened in the lobby.
"Jiang Yi clearly colluded with the Royal Hotel to tarnish Young Master Zhangsun's reputation. This time, not only Young Master Zhangsun, but I'm afraid even you, Chairman, will be implicated by public opinion," Xu Yun said with a frown. "Jiang Yi has gone too far this time. The Chairman should immediately put a stop to this, otherwise..."
"This is what that unfilial son brought upon himself! It's good that Mr. Jiang didn't kill him. That unfilial son is about to drive me to death!"
"I've warned him many times not to trouble Mr. Jiang, but he just wouldn't listen!" Zhangsun Xiong said.
Xu Yun was stunned!
"I had already agreed with Mr. Jiang that he could deal with this unfilial son however he wished, and I wouldn't interfere. If this unfilial son isn't taught a lesson, he won't reform."
Zhangsun Xiong continued, "Let alone Mr. Jiang making him lose face; even if Mr. Jiang killed him, I wouldn't dare say anything. I don't want our entire Zhangsun family to be ruined because of this unfilial son."
Zhangsun Xiong's attitude was clear.
He would not interfere with Zhangsun Hao's affairs.
Xu Yun was stunned again!
"Knock knock..."
There was a knock on the door outside the private room.
"Please come in!" Zhangsun Xiong called out.
As soon as he finished speaking, the door to the private room was pushed open, and Jiang Yi walked in from outside.
Seeing Jiang Yi arrive, Zhangsun Xiong stood up from his chair.
Just as Jiang Yi was about to speak, Zhangsun Xiong spoke first, "Mr. Jiang, you don't need to say anything. I'll say it again, no matter how you deal with that unfilial son, I won't question it."
"This unfilial son has disappointed me too much. Our relationship cannot be ruined by this unfilial son."
"You want to use me to discipline Zhangsun Hao and make him reform, right?" Jiang Yi asked.
Zhangsun Xiong panicked upon hearing this.
He hadn't expected that his inner thoughts would be seen through by Jiang Yi.
"Mr. Jiang, I didn't mean to use you..." Zhangsun Xiong quickly explained.
"No need to be so nervous. It's fine even if you have such thoughts. Don't worry, I will definitely help you with this. In the future, I will teach Zhangsun Hao a good lesson and help him reform and become a new person," Jiang Yi said with a smile.
Seeing that Jiang Yi wasn't angry, Zhangsun Xiong breathed a sigh of relief.
"Thank you, Mr. Jiang!"
Zhangsun Xiong said, "This unfilial son is too out of line. He deserves to be taught a lesson."
Jiang Yi's lips curved upwards.
Zhangsun Xiong was indeed a reasonable person.
He liked dealing with people like him.
"I originally wanted to hold a proper gathering today, but I didn't expect it to turn into this because of that unfilial son!"
Zhangsun Xiong said to Jiang Yi, "Mr. Jiang, if there's nothing else, I'll take my leave. When there's an opportunity, we'll have a few drinks together."
"Mmm!"
Jiang Yi nodded.
Zhangsun Xiong did not linger and left directly.
In the afternoon, Jiang Yi, Dongfang Mei, and Shen Lu drove home together.
After dinner, Dongfang Mei brought up Zhangsun Hao's matter.
"In everyone's eyes, Zhangsun Hao has become an unspeakable villain! Shen Lu, you mustn't make a move in front of others during this period. If people find out you're not a weak woman, it will be bad," Dongfang Mei said to Shen Lu while drinking tea.
"I know!"
Shen Lu smiled.
Dongfang Mei then turned her gaze to Jiang Yi.
"Since Chairman Zhangsun asked you to help discipline Zhangsun Hao, you don't need to hold back from now on."
After speaking, Dongfang Mei sighed.
"Why are you sighing?" Jiang Yi asked.
"Actually, what I'm saying is all nonsense."
Dongfang Mei said, "Zhangsun Hao is infatuated with Ye Yanran. Zhangsun Hao dares to have designs on Ye Yanran. Even if I don't remind you, you won't go easy on Zhangsun Hao."
"It's like when you dealt with Han Kai before, anyone who messes with the woman you care about won't get away with it, right!"
Jiang Yi was speechless upon hearing this!
Dongfang Mei was deliberately saying this to tease him.
"That's right. Anyone who dares to have designs on Ye Yanran, I won't let them off," Jiang Yi said deliberately.
"Good!"
Dongfang Mei glared at Jiang Yi. "You're still thinking about Ye Yanran..."
"I wasn't thinking about Ye Yanran originally, but now that you've reminded me, I'm thinking about her again," Jiang Yi smiled.
Dongfang Mei suddenly understood that Jiang Yi was toying with her.
"You've gotten brave, actually tricking me!" Dongfang Mei snorted.
"You can't blame me for this. You teased me first," Jiang Yi shrugged.
Seeing Jiang Yi and Dongfang Mei bantering, Shen Lu quietly left the hall.
"By the way, there's something I must tell you!"
Dongfang Mei's expression turned serious.
"You must stop Ye Yanran from getting together with Zhangsun Hao. I can see that Ye Yanran has no interest in Zhangsun Hao. The reason she's approaching Zhangsun Hao is because she wants to use him to deal with us."
"Zhangsun Hao is Zhangsun Xiong's son. Although he doesn't have much power in the Beijing Chamber of Commerce, I estimate that many people in the Beijing Chamber of Commerce will help him. We shouldn't underestimate Zhangsun Hao."
