"Haha, boss, don't worry, I understand!"
"By the way, boss, I told Gates Barlow, my subordinate, today to meet you and see if you have any instructions. He will get it done as soon as possible!"
"Where and when do you want to meet?"
Gu Laheng Deli looked at Lu Yang and continued to speak.
"Just tell me his location, and I'll go over now!"
Lu Yang thought for a moment and said directly.
"Okay!"
After Gu Laheng Deli finished speaking, he sent Gates Barlow's address to Lu Yang's phone.
Lu Yang glanced at it, then drove his car to Gates Barlow's address.
Gates Barlow was staying at the Hongfeng Hotel, a place in Jiangbei City specifically for receiving foreign guests.
At the entrance of the Hongfeng Hotel, many wealthy businessmen had already arrived, all carrying gifts, wanting to meet Gates Barlow.
A middle-aged man with a hooked nose blocked the entrance, looking at these wealthy businessmen and examining their gifts. With a smiling demeanor, he accepted the gifts, and soon, a pile of luxurious gifts had accumulated behind him, worth at least several million.
This middle-aged man with a hooked nose was Gates Barlow's assistant, Holiday Dono. Only by flattering him could one get to meet Gates Barlow. This method fostered Holiday Dono's corrupt practices. He would only accept high-end gifts and promise to arrange meetings, while gifts of slightly lower quality were directly thrown out by Holiday Dono.
Lu Yang, of course, was unaware of this. After parking his car, he walked forward and looked at Holiday Dono, who was blocking the entrance, and said, "Is this where Gates Barlow is staying?"
"That's right, are you also here to see Mr. Gates Barlow?"
Holiday Dono sized up Lu Yang. Seeing that his hands were empty, he asked disdainfully.
"Yes!"
Lu Yang said directly.
"You came empty-handed? Don't you have too much disregard for Mr. Gates Barlow!"
"See that? All these gifts behind me are from these wealthy businessmen. Only then will I arrange a meeting. Your behavior makes it difficult for me!"
Holiday Dono said directly.
"Still need to give gifts?"
Hearing this, Lu Yang burst into laughter. He hadn't expected Gates Barlow's assistant to be using his name to engage in such a scheme. It truly left Lu Yang speechless.
"Does your boss know you're doing this?"
Lu Yang asked Holiday Dono.
"Why are you talking so much nonsense? If you have a gift, take it out immediately, and I'll arrange a time for you. If not, then scram. Our boss doesn't meet with poor people!"
Holiday Dono yelled coldly.
"I don't have any, and I won't leave. Let Gates Barlow come out to see me immediately!"
Lu Yang said directly to Holiday Dono.
"What? You want our boss to come and see you? Who do you think you are? Do you think you're worthy of our boss coming out?"
"Look at them, they're all driving luxury cars and are worth tens of millions or even hundreds of millions. Even with such status, they don't dare to ask my boss to come out; they all wait obediently for me to arrange it. You, a young brat in your twenties, have such a big mouth! Hurry up and get lost, or I'll have my bodyguards kill you!"
Holiday Dono glared at Lu Yang and roared coldly.
"Who is this kid? Is his brain faulty? He wants to see Mr. Gates Barlow without bringing anything. Does he really think he's some big shot?"
"Yeah, there aren't any young talents this young in our Jiangbei City. This kid is definitely showing off!"
"Hurry up and let him leave, don't affect Mr. Gates Barlow's mood. It would be troublesome if we can't even meet him then!"
"..."
Several wealthy businessmen nearby heard the conversation between Lu Yang and Holiday Dono and immediately began to discuss Lu Yang with disdain.
Lu Yang ignored these wealthy businessmen and continued to speak to Holiday Dono, "I'm giving you one last chance. If you don't let me see Gates Barlow now, you won't even know how you died later!"
"Haha, you idiot, how dare you speak to me like that? Doesn't China have an old saying, 'Your foot odor is worse than your temper,' and you are a typical example!"
"Since you are so stubborn, then let my bodyguard give you a lesson you'll never forget!"
After Holiday Dono finished speaking, he waved his hand. A tall, dark-skinned man walked over. He was over two meters tall and very strong, giving off a strong sense of threat.
"Yellow-skinned monkey, how dare you speak to my esteemed Lord Holiday Dono like this? You're tired of living. Then let me teach you a good lesson!"
The bodyguard sneered, considering Lu Yang to be a plaything he could easily manipulate.
At this moment, a Bentley stopped at the entrance of the Hongfeng Hotel, and Bai Hao and Xiao Wuji stepped out of the car.
"Young Master Xiao, isn't that the good-for-nothing Lu Yang? I didn't expect this good-for-nothing to also receive the news and come to see Mr. Gates Barlow for the eighth time!"
Bai Hao pointed at Lu Yang with his finger and said to Xiao Wuji.
"It seems they're not letting this good-for-nothing in, and this good-for-nothing insists on forcing his way in!"
Xiao Wuji also noticed and sneered. He ignored Lu Yang and walked directly towards Holiday Dono.
"Mr. Holiday Dono, I am Xiao Wuji from the Xiao family in Yanjing. Please help me introduce me to Mr. Gates Barlow. I wish to meet him!"
After Xiao Wuji finished speaking, Bai Hao handed a check to Holiday Dono.
Seeing the amount on the check, Holiday Dono's eyes instantly lit up. He called his bodyguard back, no longer paying attention to Lu Yang, and focused his gaze on Xiao Wuji.
"Haha, so it's the eldest young master of the Xiao family. You are indeed generous. Don't worry, I'll take care of this. Mr. Gates Barlow has half an hour of rest this afternoon, and I will definitely arrange it for you. No one will disturb your meeting with Mr. Gates Barlow this afternoon!"
Holiday Dono said with a fawning smile to Xiao Wuji.
"Good, then I'll trouble you with this."
Xiao Wuji nodded.
"Mr. Holiday Dono, I also gave gifts. Why wasn't I arranged for this afternoon?"
"Yes, everyone gave gifts, so why is he arranged for such a good time, and I don't have such a good opportunity?"
"It's unfair, it's really unfair!"
"..."
The wealthy businessmen who had just given gifts immediately started to complain.
"Can you compare to Young Master Xiao? He handed over a five-million check with one move, what did you give? It was only a few hundred thousand, at most a million worth of items. I do things based on priority. I have already ranked you according to the value of the gifts you gave. If the boss has time, I will let you see him. If not, then forget it!"
Holiday Dono shrugged and said indifferently.
Hearing this, these wealthy businessmen's faces turned red with anger, but the gifts had already been given. There was no reason to take them back!
"See? This is the strength of our Young Master Xiao. It's not something you trash can compare to. You can't even get through the door, and you want to see his boss? You're really daydreaming!"
"Don't even look at what you are, just a good-for-nothing live-in son-in-law!"
Bai Hao deliberately looked at Lu Yang and mocked him disdainfully.
