Several people were arguing outside. One of them, a middle-aged woman, looked furious. Her hair was disheveled, and she was pointing her finger at the bodyguard's nose and cursing loudly.

"You think you're so great just because you're big stars? In the past, you'd just be trash for people to play with, and now you're putting on airs." The middle-aged man next to the woman was holding a filming prop.

Zheng Tianming pulled his assistant, who was still arguing, aside. With his height and build giving him a huge advantage, he walked up to the man, tightened his wrist, and the veins on the back of his hand bulged.

"ah--"

Saliva dripped from the corner of the man's mouth. He was in so much pain from his dislocated jaw that he couldn't speak. A middle-aged woman nearby immediately went to help him.

Zheng Tianming, supporting the man's chin, put the dislocated jaw back into place. People as kind as him are rare...

He had just finished making his move when a few people walked out from around the corner. Zheng Tianming frowned; it seemed they had come prepared.

"I'm so sorry, I've already told the guests about this private room, but they won't listen, and there are so many people, we really can't do anything about it," a man in a suit said with a helpless expression.

It means that someone is bullying others by taking advantage of their power, and there's nothing they can do about it.

Behind Shen Yunxi's agent stood several bodyguards and staff. She raised her hand and sighed, "Forget it. Who told her to be Xu Mengyu? She dares to kill people, what else wouldn't she dare to do? Let's get another private room."

The bodyguard standing behind Zheng Tianming stepped forward and pointed at Shen Yunxi's manager, saying, "Who are you saying killed someone? Shen Yunxi, that..."

Before he could finish speaking, Zheng Tianming slapped him so hard he staggered back several steps, leaving the people nearby stunned.

How did I end up getting beaten up?

Zheng Tianming glanced at it, then smiled and walked over: "I didn't expect to meet Miss Shen's agent here. When we booked the private room, the hotel manager said that a wealthy man with extravagant tastes had verbally reserved this room."

If Xu Mengyu had continued speaking, she would have been committing murder. Not only that, she had also humiliated Shen Yunxi, who was in the intensive care unit. The consequences would have been dire if the video had been released...

Furthermore, not a single word he said was true, just like the man in the suit earlier. Before he came in, Zheng Tianming had noticed that he was probably the hotel manager, and he was reprimanding other service staff at the time.

Before getting off the bus, Xu Mengyu grumbled about why she didn't stay at her own hotel, but instead chose a hotel just across the street with limited facilities and services.

"You're talking nonsense! When did I say that? Didn't you insist on coming here with your people?" The hotel manager stepped forward to argue with Zheng Tianming.

Zheng Tianming said in a calm voice, "There are three private rooms in total. You have to pass the first two rooms when you come down from the elevator. It's already lunchtime and no one has come yet, which means no one made a reservation. If you weren't leading the way, why would we have chosen the innermost room?"

"This is the one you requested!"

Shen Yunxi's agent pursed his lips. "Idiot, isn't this obviously setting a trap for him?"

“We specifically requested this room. As the manager, don’t you know that this private room has already been booked?” Zheng Tianming said, pretending to think. “Also, you just said that we forced our way in with our men and insisted on having this room.”

“Yes, Xu Mengyu originally didn’t book this room. When she arrived, she heard that it was a private room booked by Miss Liu, so she changed her mind at the last minute.” The middle-aged woman who had just been arguing stepped forward.

So many people, and not a single one of them used their brain...

"Sorry, technology is so advanced now, we support online booking, and we have a record of it." After Zheng Tianming finished speaking, his assistant couldn't help but laugh out loud.

After watching someone make a fool of themselves, they kick them while they're down. How can you describe this person? They look perfectly respectable, but they're full of bad intentions.

Zheng Tianming looked at Shen Yunxi's agent: "It seems to be a misunderstanding. There's a problem with the hotel's management." He then gestured for her to proceed: "Today's expenses will be on Ms. Xu's behalf. Please."

The manager panicked. They knew in advance that Xu Mengyu was coming and that she was Xu Sichen's daughter. The hotel across the street had driven the surrounding businesses to the brink of collapse. They had originally planned to take this opportunity to cooperate with someone to suppress them, but they didn't expect this outcome.

Once it was posted online, it caused quite a stir, especially since he also received a bribe privately!

Shen Yunxi's agent was terrified that Xu Mengyu would make a comeback. Knowing that she was having dinner today, she sent someone over overnight to negotiate and even bribed the bodyguards. Unexpectedly, the man in front of her easily resolved the situation with just a few words.

Why is this grown man talking so much and even getting into a confrontation? Can't he be a little more profound? She had seen his live stream videos before, and he seemed like a rather aloof person. How come he's changed so much in such a short time?

Not only that, he also showed Xu Mengyu's magnanimity, immediately putting aside past grievances and treating her to a meal right after being smeared, and the key point is that he invited her, his rival.

Just now, there was a man standing in the crowd carrying a toolbox. He lowered the cover of the camera.

"It's all a misunderstanding. Miss Xu, today's meal is on me." After saying that, Shen Yunxi's agent looked at the manager next to her and said, "It's on my tab."

"Then we won't stand on ceremony. It's only fair to return the favor. We'll invite Miss Liu next time, as a way of making friends..." Zheng Tianming said as if he were serious.

Anyway, she's determined to spend this money today; as for next time, only heaven knows.

Shen Yunxi's agent didn't expect Zheng Tianming to be so impolite. The thought of actually having to spend money to treat Xu Mengyu to dinner made her feel disgusted.

The others were also stunned. Why would someone actually treat them to a meal? Wasn't that a bit beneath them? Did a big star like Xu Mengyu really care about the cost of a meal?

"Enjoy your meal. We're going to the next private room." Shen Yunxi's manager glanced over. Today was the start of filming for their new drama. They originally wanted to celebrate and take the opportunity to put down Xu Mengyu to pave the way for the new drama, but they ended up getting very angry.

Fortunately, she didn't say much throughout the whole thing, which was a stroke of luck amidst misfortune.

Zheng Tianming took a step back and grabbed the bodyguard who was still covering his face, saying, "Miss Liu, you forgot to take this person with you." As he spoke, he forcefully shoved the bodyguard, causing him to stumble.

“...”

He was certain that he would make it impossible for him to work in the bodyguard industry. There was also the manager who had just left, and he was still trying to make amends, but nobody wanted to listen to what he had to say.

After handling the situation, Zheng Tianming opened the door and returned to the private room.

Xu Mengyu and the others were chatting while waiting for the food to be served.

"What's the situation outside?" Xu Mengyu leaned back in her chair, looked up at Zheng Tianming, and was 100% confident that he could handle the matter.

With so many people outside, as a celebrity embroiled in scandals, going out would only cause trouble.

Zheng Tianming bent down, his lips close to Xu Mengyu's ear, and whispered two words before straightening up.

Xu Lu tilted her head and asked, "What does 'miscellaneous food' mean?"

The boy sitting opposite Xu Mengyu seemed a little uncomfortable. The bodyguard who had just spoken up must have been his.

Zheng Tianming stared at him coldly.

When it came time to pay the bill, Xu Mengyu realized that she had ordered four bottles of top-quality red wine for this meal, which was treated by Shen Yunxi's manager...

Those who remained silent received the heaviest slaps.

But these were minor matters. After carrying Xu Lu to the parking lot, Zheng Tianming pulled the driver out of the driver's seat. With his future mother-in-law about to be born, he didn't have much time left...
