He's Actually A Sexy Girl? I Erected!

Chapter 545: [545] Weren’t you acting all high and mighty just now? _1

Tang Feng smiled and waved at Zhou Kai but did not step forward.

“Is it really you? Why didn’t you let me know in advance that you were coming?”

Upon recognizing him, Zhou Kai’s aloofness toward others instantly vanished, and he spread his arms wide, ready to give him a big hug.

“Hold on a second, Mr. Zhou,” Tang Feng suddenly raised his hand to stop him.

“Ah? What’s wrong?” Zhou Kai instantly froze, not understanding the situation.

“You better not come over here; we are currently suspects of fraud. If you get involved because of us, I couldn’t bear the responsibility,” Tang Feng’s words were laced with barbs.

Who wouldn’t be upset if they were wrongfully accused of being a fraud in public for no reason at all?

Zhou Kai, shrewd as he was, could certainly grasp the intricacies of the situation, and his expression darkened, “Mr. Huang, what exactly is going on here?”

With his status, he naturally would not lower himself to question a junior manager, so he directly asked the hotel’s general manager, Huang Shengcai.

Upon being questioned by Zhou Kai, Huang Shengcai was so scared that he broke out in a cold sweat, “Mr… Mr. Zhou, please wait a moment. I will immediately get to the bottom of this.”

Internally, he was cursing Fang Qin back to her eighteenth ancestor.

This woman, she usually performed so well, why did she suddenly act like she was possessed today, making so many stupid mistakes in a row?

He walked over to Fang Qin with a gloomy face, “Mr. Fang, what exactly is going on here?”

Fang Qin’s face was already ashen. Struggling to speak after being questioned by Huang Shengcai, she stuttered, “Mr… Mr. Huang, there might be… might be some misunderstanding…”

“What do you mean ‘might be’? Is there a misunderstanding or not? Please, clarify,” Huang Shengcai’s face was extremely unpleasant.

Even a fool could see how close Tang Feng was to Zhou Kai at this moment.

Tang Feng personally called Zhou Kai “Uncle,” regardless of whether it was a blood uncle or an honorary uncle, this “Uncle” was indeed worth a fortune.

Furthermore, considering Zhou Kai’s enthusiasm toward Tang Feng, it was clearly not feigned.

Frankly speaking, Zhou Kai had never been seen behaving this affectionately even with his own son, Zhou Bingrui.

Could it be… this young man, was Mr. Zhou’s illegitimate son?

Once this thought crossed his mind, Huang Shengcai almost wanted to kneel down and call Tang Feng “godfather.”

And this Fang Qin, who was as dumb as a pig, had actually offended his “godfather;” how could she be easily let off?

Fang Qin was on the verge of tears, “I’m sorry, Mr. Huang. I misunderstood this gentleman. I… I thought he was… a fraudster…”

Huang Shengcai was almost fainting with anger, “Fang Qin, oh Fang Qin, you’re usually so capable and the leaders all think highly of you. They were even considering promoting you to vice president in a few days. Tell me… how could you fail at such a critical moment?”

Fang Qin was completely stunned now.

The position of vice president had been her dream for many years.

Just when it was within her grasp, it now seemed likely to slip away.

Seeing she was genuinely scared, Huang Shengcai, feeling somewhat sorry for her, could only remind her, “Aren’t you going to hurry up and apologize to Mr. Zhou?”

Only then did Fang Qin come to her senses.

For her now, it wasn’t a question of becoming a vice president but of keeping her job.

And Mr. Zhou was the one who held her fate in his hands.

She hurriedly stumbled toward Zhou Kai, bowing deeply while sobbing, “I’m sorry, Mr. Zhou. There has been a grave negligence in my work. Please give me a chance to make it right. I promise to work hard in the future and never make such a mistake again.”

Zhou Kai, with a cold face, did not even glance at her, “Appealing to me is useless. If you want to ask for forgiveness, go to Mr. Tang. If he forgives you, I can give you another chance. But if he refuses, you need not come in tomorrow.”

Fang Qin shivered and then rushed to Tang Feng, “Mr… Mr. Tang, I’m sorry, please forgive my stupidity.”

Tang Feng looked at her tearful expression and couldn’t help but sneer, “Save your crocodile tears. Weren’t you quite pompous just now?”

“I still prefer that unyielding attitude of yours. Please show it again,” he added.

Fang Qin bowed repeatedly toward him, “I’m sorry, Mr. Tang, please forgive me. I’m a single mother raising a child, and my child just started high school, I can’t lose this job…”

“What does that have to do with me?” Tang Feng looked at her coldly, “I’ve explained to you many times just now, and yet you repeatedly harassed me. You can only blame your own stupidity.”

By then, Fang Qin deeply regretted her actions.

She had prejudged Tang Feng as a fraudster due to her trust in Guo Caixia.

In fact, if it had been any other ordinary customer, her rough handling might not have been entirely wrong.

But this young man before her was not an ordinary customer.

He was the great-nephew of their boss’s boss!

Guo Caixia, who was also aware that her impulsiveness had implicated her close friend, joined in pleading for mercy.

“Tan…”

“Scram!”

Tang Feng cut her off before she could finish speaking.

It was because of this brainless woman that he had wasted so much time.

He felt that wasting even one more word on her was a waste of breath.

Xu Xinling, Han Xiaoxiao, Liu Xingxu, and the employees of Star Studio all felt a weight lifted from their hearts.

They had thought they might have to spend the night in a police station today.

Who would have expected such an abrupt turn of events?

Their new financier actually knew such a high-status, powerful big shot.

Setting aside his vision and ability for the moment, just this network alone made him an invincible presence.

It seemed they had truly latched onto the right ‘big leg’ this time.

After scolding the two idiotic women, Tang Feng turned to Zhou Kai, “Mr. Zhou, as this is your hotel’s affair, it’s not proper for an outsider like me to interfere. Please handle this fairly, and don’t punish her more severely just because of our relationship. That would make me uncomfortable.”

Although he spoke righteously, he simply didn’t want to leave Zhou Kai with an image of being petty and vengeful.

In his heart, though, not firing this idiotic woman would not satisfy his sense of justice.
