Chapter 142 - The Impostor Boyfriend
To secure Ye Hao's forgiveness, Faang Qiming didn't just present him with a billion yuan; he also gifted him a five-star hotel and a clubhouse.
This clubhouse was none other than the Immortals Retreat they were currently standing in front of.
Ye Hao took over the Immortals Retreat without making any personnel changes, opting to run it just as it had been.
“What's the matter?” Xu ngng inquired with curiosity.
“I've been to the Immortals Retreat once before,” Ye Hao replied, his voice carrying a hint of amusent.
“Only those with a bank balance exceeding ten million yuan are eligible to beco mbers of the Immortals Retreat,” Ye Hao remarked. No sooner had he finished than a derisive voice rang out. A young man then stepped out of an Audi A6.
The youth sported black sunglasses and his hair was impeccably styled. Dressed in black trousers, a shirt, and leather shoes, he cut a dashing figure.
”ngng, did you really think you could fool with so yokel posing as your boyfriend?” he said with a smirk.
A middle-aged woman, adorned with a pearl necklace, spoke up in discontent, “ngng, this is not the ti for foolishness.”
“Indeed. ngng, apologize to Mr. Liang this instant,” a middle-aged man chid in.
Xu ngng responded firmly, “Dad, Mom, I'm not being foolish. I brought Ye Hao here to show you that I have a boyfriend now.”
“Nonsense,” the middle-aged man snapped, anger rising as he moved to slap Xu ngng.
Liang Bin intervened, holding back the man's hand, and said with a smile, “Mr. Xu, while I understand ngng's rebellious streak, I'm confident that I'll win her over in ti.”
Turning to Xu ngng with a tender gaze, Liang Bin continued, “The music at the Immortals Retreat is unparalleled. As a distinguished student from Riverdale College, I'm sure you'll appreciate its quality.”
Without giving Ye Hao another glance, Liang Bin proceeded to escort Xu ngng's parents toward the entrance.
Biting her lip, Xu ngng asked, “What do we do now?”
“Put your arm around my shoulder, and we'll head inside,” Ye Hao said with a calm smile.
After a brief pause, Xu ngng wrapped her arm around Ye Hao's shoulder and hurried to catch up with her parents.
Xu ngng tensed up noticeably when she pressed close to Ye Hao.
“Is this your first ti embracing a man?” Ye Hao whispered.
Xu ngng nodded.
“Try to relax,” Ye Hao murmured. “Otherwise, it'll be obvious to everyone that we're just pretending to be a couple.”
“Alright.”
They had just entered the lobby when they overheard Liang Bin arguing with the front desk manager.
“I reserved a room a day in advance. Why was my reservation canceled?”
“There was an unforeseen issue.”
“No excuses. I need an explanation.” Liang Bin had booked a room at the Immortals Retreat to impress his future in-laws, and he was taken aback to find it had been given away.
The lobby manager explained with resignation, “Per the club's policy, gold card mbers have priority.”
Liang Bin scoffed, “Priority? If we had made reservations at the sa ti, I'd understand giving the room to a gold card mber. But I booked first. This isn't right.”
The lobby manager was at a loss for words.
Indeed, it wasn't right.
But the gold card mber in question wielded significant influence in Glento.
He was sure that even the owner would turn a blind eye to such a decision.
“Get your boss out here,” Liang Bin demanded, emboldened by the manager's silence.
“You're not entitled to et the owner of the Immortals Retreat,” interjected a middle-aged man in a business suit, looking at Liang Bin as if he were an imbecile.
“What did you say?” Liang Bin bristled.
“Keep causing a scene, and I'll toss you into the river!” the middle-aged man warned, eyeing Liang Bin dismissively. “With 4,203 silver card mbers, 581 gold card mbers, and 28 diamond card mbers, even those with diamond cards need an appointnt to see the boss. I'm curious how a silver card mber like you has the audacity to make such a demand!”
Liang Bin was taken aback.
It was then that he truly grasped the formidable nature of the Immortals Retreat.
Silver card mbership indicates that an individual's bank savings have reached tens of millions of yuan. Gold card mbers have bank savings in the hundreds of millions, while diamond card mbers boast savings of a billion yuan.
What does it an to have a bank deposit of a billion yuan?
It signifies that the account holder possesses assets well over ten billion yuan!
Yet, even the wealthiest individuals must schedule an appointnt to et the owner of the Immortals Retreat.
Liang Bin shuddered at the thought.
His recent behavior was nothing short of looking for trouble.
“I don't care whether that person holds a silver, gold, or diamond card. If we reserved that private room, we're going to use it now,” Xu ngng's mother declared, clearly not grasping the gravity of the situation. Seeing Liang Bin's lack of response, she stepped forward and bellowed.
In fairness, Xu ngng's mother wasn't entirely at fault.
Liang Bin's constant bragging had convinced her that her future son-in-law could do anything in Glento.
“Be quiet,” Liang Bin interjected sharply when he heard Xu ngng's mother.
She was taken aback.
What was happening?
Why was Liang Bin yelling at her?
Realizing he had lost his composure, Liang Bin quickly pulled Xu ngng's parents aside and quietly explained the significance of the different card mberships.
Now, Xu ngng's parents grasped the imnse influence wielded by the owner of the Immortals Retreat.
A silver card mber like Liang Bin stood no chance, let alone a diamond card holder.
“We should leave quickly,” Xu ngng's mother suggested, recognizing her mistake.
“Alright. I'll take you to Mumbles,” Liang Bin agreed.
“Why leave when you've just arrived?” Ye Hao chid in with a smile.
“Don't create problems for yourself,” Liang Bin warned, his expression turning grave.
He thought, “Can't you see the predicant? This is not an event for you to ddle in.”
“The club has its rules, and you're expected to abide by them,” Ye Hao said, addressing the middle-aged professional. “You shouldn't dismiss him just because he's a silver card mber.”
“Who are you?” asked the middle-aged man with a furrowed brow.
“Have Zhang Jinsong co to see ,” Ye Hao stated calmly.
“Mr. Zhang?” the middle-aged man responded, taken aback.
Zhang Jinsong was the general manager of the club, but he was essentially just the person in charge.
It was common knowledge that only soone with connections would be aware of Zhang Jinsong's na.
“Is there a problem?” Ye Hao fixed his gaze on the middle-aged man.
Feeling a sense of foreboding, the man replied deferentially, “One mont, please.”
He then promptly took out his phone to call Zhang Jinsong.
At this, Liang Bin was stunned.
Xu ngng and her family were equally astonished.
What was happening?
Did Ye Hao know the manager of Immortals Retreat?
