Hong Kong Storm: The King of Jobs

Chapter 779, Page 369: A show of force needs to be measured.
Chi Mengli stood in front of the mirror, carefully adjusting her sportswear. Today was a big day.

一旁茶几上放着卡西欧的电子时钟，上面清晰地显示：1979年4月6号9点15分。

Today's ruling deity is Gouchen, so it's not auspicious for any activities!

The day of "closed sun" refers to the day when heaven and earth are closed off.

An old book says: This day is unlucky for everything; one can only do things like breaking walls and damaging houses.

After tidying up her sportswear, Chi Mengli picked up her pager, glanced at the battery level, put it in her pocket, and left the bedroom.

When Spinach Dong, Xizai, and Acong saw Chi Mengli come out of the hotel's private room, they all stood up and stubbed out their cigarettes in the ashtray.

These three scumbags were also dressed in sportswear and shorts.

"Let's go!"

Everything that needed to be said has been said, and everything that needed to be done has been done without fail.

There is no point in talking more!

Chi Mengli smiled, waved her hand, and led the way out of the long room at the Sheraton Hotel.

The door opened, and Xiren was leaning against the wall smoking, her signature cheongsam highlighting her curvaceous figure.

May everything go smoothly and bring you great fortune!

Xi Ren threw the cigarette in her hand into the trash can, walked up to Chi Mengli, and helped her tidy up the zipper.

"Thank you! Be careful too!"

Chi Mengli kissed Xiren's forehead. Xiren was also one of the main characters today, so she needed to be extra careful.

Xi Ren nodded and escorted Chi Mengli and her group of four to the elevator. After seeing that all four had boarded the elevator, she returned to the VIP room, turned on the TV, and watched the morning news.

Leaning against the elevator's metal walls, Chi Mengli took out a cigarette case, put a cigarette in her mouth, and lit it.

The elevators at the Sheraton Hotel are express elevators; they're so fast that you can go from the twentieth floor to the first floor before you've even finished a cigarette.

The elevator doors opened, and Chi Mengli threw her cigarette butt into the elevator's trash can before being the first to step out.

"Chi Sheng, good morning!"

Are you going to the gym?

The Sheraton Hotel's front office manager greeted Chi Mengli immediately upon his arrival. Seeing that Chi Mengli was dressed in sportswear, he quickly said, "Mr. Chi, you don't need to go to so much trouble."

"The hotel has just renovated its gym. As a VIP customer of our hotel, you can use the gym 24 hours a day."

"If you prefer a quiet environment, we can also clear the area for you, Mr. Chi."

Sheraton Hotels, a global chain of five-star hotels, has never relied on individual guests for profit.

Clearing out rooms specifically for long-term clients is also standard practice.

"Damn! The gym was just renovated, the formaldehyde levels are definitely too high. You should open it for free, so everyone can have a taste and the formaldehyde will dissipate faster."

Excessive formaldehyde can cause cancer, and Chi Mengli didn't want to be a human air purifier. After giving the front desk manager a suggestion, he continued, "I'm going to play golf."

"Also, it's best to change the water in the swimming pool once a day."

After Chi Mengli finished speaking, she took out her wallet, pointed out a Red Snapper bill, and handed it to the front desk manager as a listening fee.

"Thank you, Mr. Chi. I guarantee that the water in the pool will be clean every time you swim, and will be purified at least once."

Chi Mengli's annual room rate is over 100,000 yuan. For such a wealthy guest, even if you said the sun rises from the south, the front desk manager would agree.

Moreover, the big clients are very generous, and the tips they give each day are more than my daily wage for a hard day's work.

The front desk manager stepped forward, opened the hotel doors, and respectfully saw Chi Mengli and her entourage out.

Xizai's henchmen had already driven out in their cars, and the Volvo sedan was parked in front of the Sheraton Hotel's main entrance.

When the doorman saw Chi Mengli and her entourage come out, he quickly stepped forward, opened the door of the Volvo sedan, and invited Chi Mengli to get in.

"Drip drip"

Chi Mengli took a step forward, but then heard a beeping sound. A Land Rover Range Rover drove out from the other side of the passage and headed straight for Chi Mengli.

At that speed, even Superman wouldn't be able to avoid it.

Since she couldn't avoid it, Chi Mengli didn't try to dodge. Instead, she stood still, calmly watching the Range Rover SUV that was about to approach her.

A-Cong and Bo-Cai Dong, who were standing next to Chi Meng-Li, immediately sensed something was wrong. They both took a step forward and stood in front of Chi Meng-Li.

The Range Rover, which was moving at full speed, began to slow down when it was ten meters away from Chi Mengli and the others. When it was three meters away, it came to a complete stop.

The powerful wind generated by the massive body of the Range Rover stirred up the little dust on the ground and blew it onto Chi Mengli's face.

He took out a wet wipe and wiped his face, his expression remaining calm, and no one could see the slightest bit of panic.

The driver's side door of the Range Rover opened, and Snotty jumped out of the car, walked casually to Chi Mengli, and gave him a thumbs up: "Brother Sheng, you're awesome."

"He remained calm in the face of danger, truly displaying the demeanor of a great general!"

"I wasn't satisfied with the original selection of you as the Double Flower Red Stick. I thought the old man in charge was old and blind, so I gave you the position of Double Flower Red Stick."

"But after what happened today, I'm completely convinced. I have nothing to say about being Sheng-ge's little brother and stepping stone."

"But Sheng-ge, I don't understand why you didn't back down?"

Seeing that this slut dared to swagger up to her, Chi Mengli smiled and replied, "Because I'm not afraid."

"Since I'm not even afraid of death, why should I hide!"

After saying that, Chi Mengli took out a cigarette case, picked out a Double Happiness cigarette, and put it in his mouth.

Snotty quickly pulled out a lighter, leaned over, and prepared to light a cigarette for Handsome Sheng to calm him down.

"Snapped"

Chi Mengli started with zero frames and slapped the snotty-nosed man across the face.

The snotty-nosed boy, with one hand covering his face and the other holding a lighter, stood there, somewhat bewildered.

"Trying to build a big plane? Are you even up to the task, you slug?"

Chi Mengli blew smoke into the slug's face, took a big step forward, and stood in front of the slug.

"You bastard, you dare to scare me with your car! If I, Handsome Sheng, die, you're lucky. If I don't, I'll definitely kill your whole family."

"Go to hell, you trying to test my strength? You don't know what's good for you."

After Chi Mengli finished speaking, he lit another Double Happiness cigarette, took a puff, and then pressed the whole cigarette against the snotty-nosed man's face.

"what"

The heat of the cigarette butt made the snotty-nosed man squeal, but he immediately stopped yelling. If he made a sound in public, he would never be able to work in Hong Kong again.

His eyes were red, and he reached down to his lower back, ready to deliver a fatal blow to Chi Mengli.

Standing to the side, Ah Cong saw that the slug was about to use its weapon, so he stretched out his hand and placed the thin, sharp knife on the blood vessel in the slug's neck.

"Let's see who's faster!" Slug felt a chill on his neck, followed by the stinging pain of his skin being cut.

He quickly stopped, looked down, and found a five-centimeter-long gash on his neck. Meanwhile, Ah Cong across from him issued a challenge to a duel.

"Let's see which one will surprise you."

Slug's eyes were bloodshot. He pulled out the short dog tucked into his waistband and aimed it at Ah Cong's head.

People in the underworld walk a tightrope every day, betting their lives. If they shrink back when faced with trouble and become cowardly when they see people, they will never escape the vast rainforest of the Golden Triangle.

"enough!"

The door of the Range Rover opened, and Biao Jin stepped out of the car. He was thinner than the last time we met, but he was in good spirits and looked radiant.

This famous Waterway King walked between the two groups, pressed the short dog in Snotty's hand down, and then turned to look at Chi Mengli: "Asheng, you've vented your anger."

"Let's put this matter behind us! Give Uncle Jin some face!"

Chi Mengli didn't even look at the snotty-nosed guy opposite him. He looked at Biao Jin and said, "Uncle Jin, you've made this plane too big."

"Since Uncle Jin is not sincere about doing business, I will take my leave and inform Miss Jiu and Professor J that the transaction is canceled."

Biao Jin sighed inwardly. It was fine for the snotty bug to give them a warning, but he didn't handle the timing well, and Chi Mengli caught him red-handed.

"Business is business, and bickering is bickering; they are two different things."

The fatty meat was about to be in his mouth; now was the final push. Biao Jin certainly couldn't let that handsome guy back down.

He glanced at the slug whose eyes were still blazing with anger, raised his hand, and delivered a resounding slap to the slug's face.

"Is it enough?"

After slapping the slug, Biao Jin looked at Chi Mengli to observe the scoundrel's reaction.

Chi Mengli remained silent. He took out his cigarette case, lit a cigarette, and quietly watched Biao Jin's one-man show.

Is that enough? Is that enough? Is that enough?

Biao Jin slapped the slug more than a dozen times, making it bleed from its nose.

"enough!"

Even if the slug were killed, Chi Mengli wouldn't be upset in the slightest.

But it's getting late, and Ninth Sister should have already set off, so they need to hurry.

Biao Jin shook his swollen hand. Slapping someone is hard work, and his hand would hurt. But he didn't have time to find a bucket of ice water to cool his hand down.

"Apologize to Ah Sheng right now!"

He shook his hands a few times and looked at the bruised and swollen snotty-nosed guy, demanding that he apologize to Chi Mengli across from him.

"Brother Sheng, I'm sorry!"

The snotty-nosed kid, who was beaten senseless, could only lower his head and apologize to Chi Mengli under the murderous gaze of the sect leader.

"Ah Sheng, this is a big deal. Get in my car, and your car will follow behind. We're all in this together. I guarantee you'll be fine. Trust me."

Biao Jin glanced at the time; it was almost nine o'clock. He told Liangzai Sheng to get into his car and gave him a guarantee.

I believe you!

Believe it or not!

You old rascal, you're really wicked!

Chi Mengli sneered, threw the cigarette butt on the ground, stomped it out with the sole of her shoe, and said, "Since Uncle Jin has spoken, of course I have nothing to say."

"Ah Dong! Come with me to one of your cars and experience Uncle Jin's luxury car."

"Brother A-Cong, Xi-Zai, you two ride in my car, give me the suitcase in the trunk."

Ah Cong nodded and withdrew his hand. Xi Zai, who was standing behind him, took a small briefcase out of the trunk.

Chi Mengli took the small suitcase, nodded to Acong, and then led Bo Cai Dong toward the Range Rover.

Seeing that Chi Mengli was giving him such face, Biao Jin personally opened the car door for this promising junior with the same surname.

Looking at the bruised and swollen snot-nosed guy, Spinach East started mocking him: "Damn you, you're a spineless coward. You can only act tough in front of other stinky guys."

"Are you out of your mind? You're trying to show off in front of Sheng-ge, but you've picked the wrong person! Are you kidding me?!"

Spinach Dong mocked the snotty-nosed boy, then opened the passenger door and plopped down in.

Having lost face, the snotty-nosed man looked extremely ugly, but he remained silent and didn't utter a word. He opened the car door, got in, and slammed the door shut.

Ah Cong watched as Sheng Ge and Bo Cai Dong got into the Range Rover, then opened the passenger door of his Volvo sedan, waved, and told Xi Zai to get in quickly.

Chi Mengli adjusted her position to make herself more comfortable and handed the small handbag to Spinach Dong.

Spinach Dong took the small suitcase, pulled out handcuffs, and linked his left hand to the suitcase.

Seeing that the small suitcase was tied to the good-for-nothing Spinach Dong, Chi Mengli felt a little relieved. He took out his cigarette case, picked out a cigarette, put it in his mouth and lit it.

Biao Jin was unwell and quit smoking three years ago.

He can't stand the smell of smoke now, because it will trigger his nicotine cravings. He rolled down his car window to let in fresh air.

“Ah Sheng, things have come to this point, there’s no need to hide anything anymore.”

Biao Jin took out a handkerchief and covered his mouth and nose, speaking in a muffled voice.

"Where are we going! Uncle Jin, you should have known all along, there's no need to pretend you don't."

"Slug, go to the Oak International Terminal Area, we're going to inspect the goods."

Chi Mengli exhaled a smoke ring, pointing the way for the slug.

The destination was the same as the one he knew, and Slug breathed a sigh of relief.

With a destination in mind, he had a direction. He released the handbrake, started the engine, floored the accelerator, and drove straight away from the entrance of the Sheraton Hotel.

Seeing the Range Rover drive away, Xi Zai quickly followed and they headed towards Tsing Yi together.

A Jaguar four-door coupe was parked in the open-air parking area at the entrance of the Sheraton Hotel.

Peach Blossom Girl sat in the driver's seat, a Dunhill women's menthol cigarette dangling from her lips, her eyes gleaming as she stared intently at the Sheraton Hotel entrance.

"Sister Peach Blossom, take a break. It's morning now, the pink guys won't go crazy, it's time to make a trade."

Lighter rolled down the car window and touched Peach Blossom Girl's newly bought Jaguar sports car. This super sports car, worth HK$300,000, had a dashboard made of top-quality solid wood.

The seats and steering wheel are wrapped in top-grain lambskin, and the car features the latest electronic systems and a fully functional in-car phone.

Comparing people with others will lead to death, and comparing goods with goods will lead to throwing away.

The handsome young man they had to keep a close eye on was staying in a long-stay room at the Sheraton Hotel, and his direct supervisor, the team leader, drove a Jaguar sports car worth HK$300,000.

I worked myself to the bone my whole life, and the pension I received after retirement wouldn't be enough to buy this car.
