The next day, an eerie atmosphere permeated the hotel lobby. Representatives from various countries gathered in small groups, their voices lower than usual, but their eyes were unusually alert, glancing towards the elevator every now and then.

"Have you heard? That guy from the Makino family last night..."

"Two female students were kicked out in the middle of the night, and they cried so hard..."

"It's said to be completely unacceptable, and they got really angry..."

Random whispers drifted to Han Feng's ears, and he picked up his coffee cup to hide a smile. Beside him, Su Wanwan, under the guise of fixing her hair, whispered, "Looks like your methods yesterday were pretty ruthless. Now the whole venue is talking about how Mu Ye Tianji has lost the joy of being a man."

Liu Xiaoran stood expressionless to the side, but a subtle twitch at the corner of his eye betrayed his suppressed laughter. Han Feng coughed lightly: "Watch your expression, that guy's here."

The elevator doors opened, and Makino Tenki stepped out with a grim face. The dark circles under his eyes indicated that he hadn't slept all night. Upon seeing this, several members of other national delegations who were chatting in the lobby immediately fell silent, pretending to be focused on the documents in their hands.

"That piece of trash, Takeshi Ota!" Makino Tenki cursed through gritted teeth, recalling how Takeshi Ota had nervously reported back that morning that he had found nothing from the surveillance footage. Just as he was about to utter a few more curses, a piercing laugh suddenly came from the other end of the hall.

"Oh my, isn't this young master Makino?" Miyamoto Kojiro leaned against the champagne tower, his silver-gray suit open, revealing a burgundy vest underneath. "I heard he was quite the big shot last night, even making those two girls cry. Apparently, they were crying very pitifully."

The hall fell silent instantly. All eyes darted back and forth between the two young masters, the air thick with anticipation for a good show.

Makino Tenki's fingers dug into his palms, his father's warning before his departure echoing in his ears: "Before the arrival of the family's expert, Kurosaki, remember not to confront the Miyamoto family head-on." He took a deep breath, pretending not to hear, and continued walking forward.

"Why did Young Master Makino leave?" Miyamoto Kojiro persisted, deliberately raising his voice, "Ms. Lu Qian is still here. Didn't you always want to get to know her?"

He pointed to Su Wanwan, who was standing next to Han Feng disguised as a technical expert. Clearly, he didn't intend to let Mu Ye Tianji leave so easily.

Makino Tenki abruptly stopped. Turning around, the anger in his eyes was almost tangible: "Miyamoto Kojiro, you don't need to worry about my affairs." He said each word slowly and deliberately, his voice extremely low, "I hope you can stay this happy... be careful that one day you don't end up like me."

Miyamoto Kojiro exaggeratedly clutched his chest: "Oh dear, what are you saying, young master Makino? Our Miyamoto family has always been upright and honest." He turned to Han Feng, "Mr. Zhang, you be the judge. I was just trying to be kind to him, and not only did he not appreciate it, he even turned around and threatened me."

Han Feng, adopting a conciliatory demeanor, said, "Mr. Miyamoto, perhaps Young Master Makino thinks... last night's incident happened on Miyamoto family territory, so it's understandable that he might make connections." He added with feigned concern, "You should still be careful; what if Young Master Makino immediately assumes you did it?"

Su Wanwan bit her lip under the guise of organizing documents, her shoulders trembling slightly. Liu Xiaoran turned away, feigning a cough, but actually trying to hide his impending breakdown.

"Who does he think he is!" Miyamoto Kojiro was indeed enraged, his voice rising eight octaves. "He's always been so arrogant and domineering; I wonder who he's offended this time!"

Han Feng added fuel to the fire: "I'm just afraid... the Muye family won't think so."

These words struck a nerve with Miyamoto Kojiro. As the second son of the Miyamoto family, he hated being looked down upon. "What's there to be afraid of?" he sneered, completely ignoring the anxious look in his assistant's eyes. "Do you think the Miyamoto family is someone anyone can bully? If he dares to come, I'll take him on. Does he really think the Miyamoto family is a pushover?"

Hearing this from afar, Makino Tenki's face turned from red to green, and he finally turned and left. A suppressed murmur rippled through the hall. The conflict between the two major families of R Country was nothing new, but such a confrontation was unprecedented, and it seemed to be the biggest news of the day.

Han Feng took a sip of coffee and, concealed by the rim of his cup, winked at his two companions. The first step of the plan had been perfectly accomplished; these two brainless rich kids had turned into a dog-eat-dog world with just a few words.

"Mr. Zhang, you are truly a reasonable person." Miyamoto Kojiro warmly put his arm around Han Feng's shoulder. "If anything happens during the summit, just come to me. I, Miyamoto Kojiro, will absolutely not hesitate to ask for your help."

"It would be my honor." Han Feng smiled and nodded, a cold glint flashing in his eyes.

After Miyamoto Kojiro left triumphantly, Su Wanwan finally couldn't help but whisper in Han Feng's ear, "You're so mean... that Makino Tenki probably wants to kill someone."

"Perfect." Han Feng responded softly, "The angrier a person is, the more likely they are to make mistakes."

Liu Xiaoran glanced at Han Feng and said, "The Muye family won't let this go."

"I was worried he wouldn't come," Han Feng shrugged and said to Su Wanwan, "When you see Chi Shangling later, see if you can get her to take you out for a walk."

"What?" Su Wanwan asked, completely bewildered.

Liu Xiaoran interjected, "There are several shopping malls near the hotel, and one of them happens to be owned by the Miyamoto family."

Han Feng nodded in agreement, it seemed that Liu Xiaoran had already guessed what he was going to do.

"It just so happens that we don't have anything to do today, and it's our first time in R country. Let's take this opportunity to explore, buy some things, experience the scenery of R country, and even get Old Man Lin to reimburse us from the budget. Why not?" Han Feng said with a mischievous grin.

Upon hearing this, Su Wanwan's eyes lit up. Finding such a good opportunity to exploit Old Man Lin was something she never dared to dream of.

The group acted immediately. Liu Xiaoran was left at the hotel by Han Feng to provide them with intelligence at any time, and also to monitor Mu Ye Tianji.

Han Feng then led Su Wanwan to Chi Shangling and explained their purpose. Chi Shangling readily agreed and said to Su Wanwan with a smile, "Miss Lu, it seems Mr. Zhang cares about you a lot. He even bought you a gift while visiting R country. I envy his love for you."

Han Feng said arrogantly, "Absolutely. The woman I love must have the best. You can shop around today, it's all on me."

Su Wanwan blushed upon hearing Han Feng's words, but still said, "Then I'll trouble Miss Ling."

“Not at all. There’s a shopping mall owned by Miyamoto-kun nearby. I’ll have him come with us,” Aya Ikegami said with a smile.

Han Feng nodded: "That would be perfect."
