Trillionaire's Slice of Life-Chapter 395 - 292 Confrontation (Begging for Subscriptions)

Chapter 395 -292 Confrontation (Begging for Subscriptions)

The full moon hung high, stars twinkled resplendently.

November’s midnight in the metropolitan was already tinged with a chill that made hearts shiver. Bursts of night breeze prompted uncontrollable shudders.

Located in Lujiazui of the metropolis, this could be said to be the most bustling segment of the entire city, hosting all three of the tallest buildings in the metropolis, and among its ninety-six five-star grand hotels, two of the top three were situated in this area.

The Tianxiangyuan Grand Hotel, near the Financial Tower, was the only seven-star grand hotel in the entire city, with a market value of twenty-two billion, and Tianxiangyuan was a gathering place for the top tycoons of the metropolis.

Not far from Tianxiangyuan, the second-ranked super five-star grand hotel of the entire metropolis, Tengwang Pavilion International Hotel, also stood erect here.

With a market value of eighteen and a half billion, the ninety-eight-story Tengwang Pavilion Grand Hotel also had three underground parking levels and two subterranean shopping floor levels, forming a mega hotel that combined leisure and entertainment.

It was this very mega hotel, just a hair’s breadth away from Tianxiangyuan, that was now enveloped in a shadow of an impending storm.

Not only had the entire hotel suspended services to outsiders, the hotel perimeter, too, was surrounded by dozens upon hundreds of black-clad muscular men.

In the first-floor lobby of Tengwang Pavilion Grand Hotel, Zhan Bingxue, dressed in a blood-red long dress, sat gracefully beside a massive floor-to-ceiling window. Behind her stood a dozen bodyguards in suits, men and women equally divided, each with a trace of caution and solemnity in their eyes.

Across from Zhan Bingxue, the general manager of Tengwang Pavilion Grand Hotel led a group of night shift department heads, all present at the scene.

The general manager, Kong Zhengyi, a middle-aged man in his forties, in the prime of life, was personally promoted by the chairman and ranked as the second high-level leader of Tengwang Pavilion Grand Hotel, right after Su Zhengxiong.

“Ms. Zhan, our chairman is on his way here. Before Chairman Su arrives, I’m in charge here. Whatever you want to say, just go ahead. Sealing off our entire hotel in the dead of night doesn’t seem quite right!”

Behind Kong Zhengyi followed a dozen department heads. As his eyes passed through the massive floor-to-ceiling window in front of him and looked outside, he could clearly see the hundreds of black-clad figures gathering outside the hotel.

All the security personnel of the entire hotel were mobilized, confronting the black-clad bodyguards, with both sides on the verge of escalating into a bloody incident.

Zhan Bingxue, who sat quietly at the dining table, was unmoved. Her stunningly beautiful face was filled with calmness, and she indifferently said:

“Tengwangge knows what it has done, and you should have anticipated this outcome from the moment you decided to act. The situation is too serious, you don’t have the authority to handle it. Wait for your Family Head to arrive; we will have our conclusion.”

As Zhan Bingxue’s words fell, she gently closed her eyes, unwilling to speak another word.

The man in front of her, Kong Zhengyi, was just one of Su Zhengxiong’s workers who could be replaced at any time, and Zhan Bingxue was not willing to waste her breath on such an insignificant figure.

She was here now to settle things with Su Zhengxiong once and for all.

Previously, when Su Zhengxiong had extended his reach towards Bafang International and even continuously threatened and tempted two senior managers of Bafang International, and had also enticed one of Tianxiangyuan’s four main affairs managers of the Zhou family, Zhan Bingxue did not feel as impulsive and angry as she did now.

This past week, she had been busy identifying traitors and had no energy to pay attention to Su Zhengxiong’s actions.

However, Zhan Bingxue had never imagined that Su Zhengxiong would not only target her Bafang International but even dared to strike at Mr. Chu. The moment she learned that Mr. Chu had been attacked, Zhan Bingxue exploded with rage. Despite Mr. Chu’s admonitions to restrain herself, Bingxue, who had never been so angry in her life, simply couldn’t control her emotions.

Even if Su Zhengxiong had targeted her personally, Zhan Bingxue wouldn’t have been as enraged as she was now. But Mr. Chu was her taboo, her untouchable, akin to her reverse scale, and anyone daring to lay hands on Mr. Chu had touched Zhan Bingxue’s raw nerve.

Therefore, when frenzy overpowered reason and she was on the verge of eruption, Zhan Bingxue for the first time defied Chu Mo’s command. She brought all the bodyguards from the entire Bafang International Chain Hotel and directly locked down Tengwang Pavilion Grand Hotel!

At this moment, Zhan Bingxue was bereft of any capacity to think; she simply yearned to find Su Zhengxiong and savagely tear apart this person who’d dared to provoke her wrath!

At the Tengwang Pavilion Grand Hotel, a group of receptionists and hotel staff—each with considerable charm—stood obediently behind the general manager. In this moment, no one dared to speak, as if fearing a single misstep would enrage the fierce gods before them.

The wait was not long as a series of car brakes screeched to a halt outside, immediately stirring a commotion by the once-quiet hotel entrance.

Meanwhile, Kong Zhengyi, the only one who had been sitting across from Zhan Bingxue, promptly rose to his feet. Accompanied by a cadre of hotel executives, he approached the entrance of the lobby, his face embodying reverence as he said:

“Chairman!”

“Good afternoon, Chairman!”

“Chairman.”

…

More than a dozen hotel senior managers and several dozen service staff all lowered their heads to greet him as Su Zhengxiong, clad in a beige suit, strode into the grand hall under the protection of numerous bodyguards.

With his sharply-angled eyes, Su Zhengxiong stood tall and imposing. Unlike the welcoming smile of last time, his face was now as grim as dark waters. As he marched forward, his eyes—cold and ferocious—were firmly fixed on the woman in red by the window of the lobby.

With a net worth of fifty-seven billion and ranked forty-fifth on the Forbes list, Su Zhengxiong, who had operated in the city for decades, carried a solemn and austere aura. He squinted slightly, his triangular eyes emitting a fierce and icy vibe.

People instinctively avoided the gaze of Su Zhengxiong, who commanded such a formidable presence. Before his overwhelming aura, no ordinary person dared to meet his eye.

However, Zhan Bingxue, whose eyes were also replaced with coldness, naturally disregarded the formidable aura emanating from him.

Her beautiful eyes intently gazed at the fearsome man opposite her as she said with a detached voice:

“Mr. Su, what a strategy.

Covertly controlling two department managers of Bafang International, seducing the steward of Tianxiang Garden, and planting over a dozen spies within Bafang International—that’s not all. You even dared to make a move on Mr. Chu. Mr. Su, you truly live up to the name of the Devil of Magistrate Su of this city!”

Su Zhengxiong, who had just arrived at the floor-to-ceiling window, stared directly into Zhan Bingxue’s eyes, a cold gleam flickering in his triangular eyes as he said with sheer indifference:

“President Zhan, I recall having warned you not to do anything you would regret, yet you chose not to heed my advice. Hence, I took action to form a thirteen-hotel alliance. It didn’t have to be this way, but, unfortunately, President Zhan, you ignored my good intentions.

However, I, Su Zhengxiong, am one to own up to my actions. It was indeed I who planted spies within Bafang International and threatened your two senior executives. I did that, I’ll bear the consequences. But as for the assault on Mr. Chu, I had no involvement and will not let someone slander me without cause.

President Zhan, I’m laying it out here today. I had no idea regarding the attack on Mr. Chu—believe it or not, that’s your concern, and I’ve no time to prove my innocence.

If President Zhan is wise, you’ll leave with your people immediately, and I will pretend nothing happened today. But should you persist in your delusions, I, Su Zhengxiong, won’t be pushed around!”

As Su Zhengxiong’s words concluded, the dozens of bodyguards behind him had already surrounded the entire hall.

At that moment, over a dozen male and female bodyguards surrounding Zhan Bingxue were all on high alert, watching their surroundings with grave expressions!
