Chapter 475: Chapter 475: It’s Easy to Meet the King of Hell, but Hard to Deal with His Minions

Outside the private room.

Lin Fan and Lu Feifei were actually stopped.

Facing the genteel young man with a fair complexion, Lin Fan frowned slightly.

"The guests inside were invited by my friend, and now the boss can’t go in to serve dishes and offer drinks? If you can’t make the decision, go and ask the people inside, don’t dawdle out here."

It’s really easier to meet the King of Hell than to deal with his little devils.

Being stopped in his own restaurant, and moreover, the look he gave to Lu Feifei clearly contained disdain.

"I can make that decision."

Unexpectedly, the other party crossed his arms with an insolent face.

"Do you think eating here is giving you face? Do you really think you’ve transformed from the lower rung of society and can just join the ranks? Right now, people like you are at most the dishes on the table, get it? Daring to claim you’re delivering dishes while holding a bowl of lousy soup, truly a country bumpkin who doesn’t know his place, hurry and scram."

The man waved his hand dismissively.

As if shooing away flies, "Oh right, there’s one more thing you’d better listen to carefully. The City Lord gave you face by letting you dine here; you’d better swallow that fact down and not spread it around. If your excessive promotion tarnishes the City Lord’s reputation, I will make sure you can’t bear the consequences!"

"Since when did you have the qualification to lecture people here in the Phoenix Building?"

The man’s arrogant words darkened Lin Fan’s face.

So this is what the people around the City Lord are like.

"Giving you a lesson is already giving you face. Bringing a garishly dressed woman, you really think you’re something, eh? At the end of the day, you’re just a ruffian from the brothels, destined never to see the light of day. Scram at once, or I’ll make you regret it!"

The bespectacled man, crossing his arms, glared at Lin Fan insolently.

And at this moment, several bodyguards behind him were also glaring furiously.

They looked ready to throw a punch at any moment.

"Master, let’s just forget it."

Lu Feifei hastily grabbed Lin Fan’s arm.

The other party was the City Lord’s secretary.

It might not seem like an important position, but he has authority second only to the City Lord himself.

She couldn’t let her own background cause Lin Fan serious trouble.

"Very good, very good indeed."

Lin Fan laughed and encircled Lu Feifei’s slender waist.

These few were not strong, if he made a move, he could take them down in an instant.

However, considering they were the City Lord’s guards, it wasn’t appropriate for him to act.

"Since you won’t let me through this door, then you’d better never set foot through mine!"

As he spoke, Lin Fan picked up the soup bowl from behind him.

Right in front of the four-eyed man, he smashed it on the ground.

"Crash!"

The soup bowl shattered, and the White Jade Soup spilled all over the floor.

Lin Fan, not bothering to argue further with the man, simply wrapped his arm around Lu Feifei’s waist and strode away.

"You... you country bumpkin... truly shameless... do you really think your restaurant could succeed, huh? Offend me, and I can shut your place down within minutes!"

The bespectacled man never expected Lin Fan to be so brazen.

He cursed loudly in his anger.

However, right now he still had to cater to the situation.

But in his heart, he resolved to ensure this young upstart could not escape his retribution.

Being the City Lord’s secretary, he was naturally not a position to be taken lightly.

Picking up the phone, he dialed a number.

Soon, the person on the other end answered the call.

"Cousin, what’s got you calling me, off work already?"

Upon connection, an obsequious voice immediately came through the line.

Although calling ’cousin’, the speaker clearly sounded submissive.

"Cousin, I’ve just been bullied by a country bumpkin."

The bespectacled man looked angrily at the shattered bowl on the ground.

"Cousin, you must be kidding. As the secretary to the City Lord, who in Jiangning wouldn’t respectfully call you Secretary Qiu and dare to bully you? Do they no longer want to mix in Jiangning?"

The cousin asked in disbelief.

Secretary Qiu is none other than the personal secretary of the City Lord.

He takes him along to every event.

Therefore, his words carry more weight than many leaders.

On holidays and festivals, there would be a long queue at his doorstep.

Anyone with a bit of social status, who would dare to offend him?

"Just a clueless bumpkin and a bunch of insignificant girls opened this Phoenix Restaurant, somehow deceiving the City Lord to come. They think they’re all that. Just now, in front of me, he smashed a bowl to pieces, an absolutely reckless act."

Secretary Qiu recounted the entire incident.

One could hear the righteousness and indignation over the phone.

"There’s such a matter? That’s audacity of a high order, it’s like slapping me in the face. What do you think we should do, cousin?"

"What to do? You just handle it yourself. Anyway, I don’t want to see that Phoenix Building able to do business tomorrow!"

Secretary Qiu’s face darkened.

Being at such a level, he naturally did not want to speak too overtly.

"All right, I’ll take care of this for you, just be at ease. I promise by tomorrow the Phoenix Restaurant will be as pitiful as a tailless chicken!"

The cousin on the phone spoke with a surety that was unmistakeable.

As the person in charge of patrolling the city, dealing with a restaurant was not a problem for him.

Only then did Secretary Qiu hang up the phone, satisfied.

A smug smile emerged at the corner of his mouth.

"Secretary Qiu, the City Lord calls for you!"

Just then, a guard near the door spoke to Secretary Qiu in a hushed tone.

Hearing the City Lord’s summons, Secretary Qiu immediately and carefully pushed open the private room door.

At that moment, there weren’t many people seated in the spacious private room.

The City Lord was naturally sitting in the main seat, with Zhou Yizheng sitting beside him.

Beside them were Divine Doctor Li Yizhen, Martial Alliance Alliance Hierarch Luo Jiuying, and the big boss of the antique world, Zheng Tianxiang.

The remaining few were also prominent figures in Jiangning.

"City Lord, do you have any instructions for me?"

Secretary Qiu hurriedly walked over to the City Lord’s side.

At that moment, he was as docile as a little lamb.

"What was that noise outside just now?"

Jiang Baoguo looked at Secretary Qiu with puzzlement.

The sound of the bowl smashing to the ground had been very clear.

"Nothing serious, a clumsy waiter dropped something."

Secretary Qiu did not mention anything about Lin Fan.

Hearing this, Jiang Baoguo did not pursue the matter further.

"By the way, just now Mr. Li mentioned that the owner today would send over a bowl of exquisite fresh soup. Go and see why it hasn’t arrived yet?"

Jiang Baoguo had heard from Li Yizhen’s mouth earlier this evening that the finale was to be a bowl of clear soup.

That had made him quite curious.

After all, it was personally concocted by his granddaughter.

It was said to be an extraordinarily delicious delicacy.

"The soup... that bowl of soup..."

Secretary Qiu never expected the City Lord would take an interest in that bowl of soup.

For a moment, he was so anxious he did not know how to respond.

"Is there a problem?"

Jiang Baoguo looked at Secretary Qiu, who appeared quite troubled.

The others also turned their curious gazes toward him.

"City Lord, the bowl that was just smashed... it wasn’t anything special... Moments ago, the owner of this restaurant, along with that improperly dressed woman, tried to barge in... When I said to report back, he refused... When he saw me blocking them, he actually picked up the soup and threw it at me, which is why it smashed!"

Secretary Qiu didn’t dare to hide it and quickly responded.

But of course, this wasn’t him being deliberately difficult.

Upon hearing this, the expressions of Li Yizhen, Luo Jiuying, and Zheng Tianxiang changed abruptly.

"You actually managed to infuriate the boss; you’re in big trouble this time!"
