“Although the Qiao Group isn’t as large as the Zunjue Group, it still has many projects, but…” Qiao Qiao suddenly flicked her wrist, sending the business card flying into a nearby trash can. “Our company has an unwritten rule: we only cooperate with people and companies who have sound values.” She chuckled. “Actually, divorce is normal for men and women, but someone like President Cui, who keeps mistresses outside his marriage, and they’re twins at that, and he even has threesomes—not to mention me, even my mother wouldn’t approve. So, sorry.” She then pulled Le Yao along. “Let’s go, half an hour of training at the boxing gym.”

Le Yao followed Qiao Qiao with a smile.

Cui Peng was trembling with anger, but he was helpless. In the end, he could only vent his anger on the roadside plants. Just as he was kicking them hard, a group of security guards ran over: "Sir, you have wantonly damaged public flowers and plants. Please come with us to the security room for processing."

"I'm a guest staying here, how dare you?" Cui Peng glared, then turned to leave.

"I am Li Bing, the captain of the hotel's security team. Sir, please rest assured that we will not conduct any unauthorized interrogations. We work in conjunction with the police, and the police will come to interrogate you. If necessary, you will be detained, and if necessary..." A tall security guard stopped the man.

"It was an accident, I can at least compensate you, right?" Cui Peng swallowed.

“That works too,” Li Bing nodded. “We also have regulations regarding compensation and penalties.”

"Here's a thousand yuan, consider it my compensation." Cui Peng simply pulled out a wad of cash from his pocket and threw it over.

Li Bing did not take it, letting the banknotes fall to the ground.

“Distinguished guest, damaging public plants is wrong, but damaging RMB is a crime.” Li Bing said without changing his expression, “We have surveillance cameras here the whole time. If you don’t want to add to your punishment, you’d better pick up the banknotes.”

"You..." Li Bing was so angry he wanted to explode on the spot, but after glancing at the people around him, he had no choice but to bend down and pick up the money one bill at a time.

“All the Phalaenopsis orchids here are from Beijing Orchid Garden. The wholesale price of each one is around 500 yuan. Now, sir, you have destroyed a total of 32 orchids. In addition, the annual maintenance fee is about 100 yuan per orchid. These flowers have been planted here for two years, so each one will cost an extra 200 yuan. So the total is 22,400 yuan. We also have a clear rule here that those who intentionally damage the plants will have to pay double the compensation. Therefore, sir, you need to pay 44,800 yuan.” Li Bing finished speaking very seriously, and then pointed to a notice board next to him, “These are all clearly stipulated here. If you don’t believe me, you can see for yourself.”

Cui Peng's face twitched involuntarily.

“If you have no objections, then please pay the compensation and vent your anger. Of course, if you feel this is inappropriate, you can also report it to the relevant departments. We have posted the reporting hotline here, which includes the phone numbers of various departments such as the public security bureau, procuratorate, and court, and even the mayor's public hotline.” Li Bing walked to the bulletin board and pointed to the location of the reporting hotline.

At this moment, a security guard behind him quickly handed two QR codes to Cui Peng: "This esteemed guest, WeChat and Alipay are both acceptable. Of course, if it's still inconvenient for you, we can also accept card payments and cash." As he spoke, he reached behind his back and pulled out a miniature POS machine.
