Lin Jinsheng had seen all sorts of situations. He knew instantly that he had been set up. The large vase was deliberately placed by the door, and if anyone touched it, it would fall and shatter.
Even though he knew he was being framed, Lin Jinsheng didn't have many options. Since the other party dared to do this, they must have prepared countermeasures.
He forced himself to calm down, cleared his throat, and said, "My name is Lin Jinsheng, and I live nearby. Your vase is probably not worth eight million."
The manager looked at Lin Jinsheng with a forced smile. "So you are Mr. Lin, a pleasure to meet you. As for how much this vase is worth, we have the purchase invoice as proof."
Lin Jinsheng frowned, "Are you saying you want us to pay eight million?"
The manager said indifferently, "At least 8.8 million, not a cent less!"
Lin Jinsheng laughed in anger, "Eight million? Do you think I, Lin Jinsheng, am an unsophisticated nobody, easy to bully?"
The manager's tone also turned cold, "Mr. Lin, this hotel belongs to Master Hu! If you don't know who Master Hu is, go ask someone who does!"
"What? Master Hu!" Lin Jinsheng gasped, and immediately knew he had to pay this more than eight million!
Because in Haicheng, everyone knew Master Hu! This Master Hu was the king of Haicheng's underworld! Those who offended Master Hu often met a bad end.
But eight million was not a small sum. Lin Jinsheng hesitated for a moment and said, "Brother, I've heard of Master Hu's great name. But you're asking me to pay eight million, and I really don't have it."
The manager's gaze swept over Lin Ni and Lin Ziyi, and he said with a sinister smile, "It's alright, you can leave them here as collateral, and you can go back and slowly gather the money."
Zhu Yuting was instantly furious, "What? Hold them hostage? Let's see who dares!" Su Dan Novel Network
The manager's expression darkened, "Madam, let me remind you again, speak to me politely."
Zhu Yuting also understood that she had been tricked. Hearing the manager's words, she became even more enraged, "I'm being impolite to you, so what? You hit me, hit me..."
As she spoke, she thrust her head towards the manager. The manager raised his hand and slapped her directly across the face, making Zhu Yuting spin around and then fall to the ground.
She was stunned for a second, then clutched her face and started crying.
Seeing his wife being hit, Lin Jinsheng shouted and lunged at the manager. Several security guards rushed over and restrained him.
The manager sneered, "What, you want to fight me?"
As he spoke, he kicked Lin Jinsheng in the stomach. The latter broke out in a cold sweat from the pain and slowly bent over.
Lin Ni was terrified, Zhang Weiguang's eyes darted around, and he kept backing away.
Lin Ziyi wanted to go rescue Lin Jinsheng, but Ye Tian stopped her. He said calmly, "I'll do it."
Lin Jinsheng lowered his head, thinking it was over, he was definitely going to pay this more than eight million!
Seeing Ye Tian walk over, the manager sneered, "What, you're not convinced either?"
Ye Tian said indifferently, "Have your boss come see me."
The manager chuckled sinisterly, "Want to see my boss? Who do you think you are?"
"Boom!"
Ye Tian raised his right foot and then gently stepped down. The entire hotel floor trembled slightly. Not far away, the second large vase wobbled, fell, and shattered on the ground.
Seeing this, Zhu Yuting almost fainted. Another eight million!
Zhang Weiguang shivered in fear and shouted, "Ye Tian, you broke this, but it has nothing to do with us!"
At this moment, Ye Tian stood there, neither humble nor overbearing, but he gave off an aura of immense presence. The smile on the manager's face disappeared, replaced by one of surprise and uncertainty. After a few more seconds, he confirmed something, and his surprise turned into fear and shock!
He suddenly bent over, his expression instantly changing to a smile, and then he looked at Ye Tian with immense reverence, saying, "I was blind and didn't recognize your greatness, please don't be offended!"
