Li Mu frowned, already exasperated by Lao Sun's antics, and suddenly became annoyed.

"Old Sun, you've gone too far. Your son-in-law is the hotel manager and should abide by the hotel's rules. How can you use your son's official position to threaten General Manager Lu?"

Li Mu rebuked Lao Sun with a stern face.

"Old Li, you have no right to speak now! Get out of here! Besides, what the hell gives you the right to lecture me? If it weren't for Old Mu and his gang, I wouldn't even bother with a nobody like you!"

Old Sun rolled his eyes and retorted to Li Mu without any politeness.

Li Mu's cheek muscles twitched with anger. He never expected that Lao Sun, whom he used to play with in the park, would turn on him so suddenly.

But thinking about it, it makes sense. In the past, it was just a few old people getting together to chat when they were bored, and there wasn't much of a relationship between them.

"Sir, whether your son is a bureau chief or a mayor, your son-in-law violated the hotel's rules and should be punished. This is the management mechanism of our Lu Group. If what I did offended you and your son in your eyes, I will explain it to Director Sun afterwards."

After a few seconds of silence, Lu Ming looked at Old Sun and spoke loudly.

She certainly didn't want to offend officials, but she couldn't relax her management of the group just because she was afraid of offending them.

She cannot tolerate Liao Haitao's abuse of power for personal gain. If she lets him go today, how will she manage such a large family group in the future?

Of course, she also tried to keep her tone calm and did not show any coldness or arrogance in front of Director Sun's father.

Logically speaking, Lu Ming's words were quite appropriate, showing no disrespect whatsoever to Old Sun and his bureau chief son.

However, in the eyes of Lao Sun and his daughter, this Boss Lu was too arrogant and did not take Sun Jiancheng seriously at all!

"Hmph! So you're the president of the Lu Group, huh? You're so impressive! You just have a little money, right? Go ahead and try firing my husband!"

Old Sun's daughter also started to lose her temper.

This woman was a pampered second-generation official, and her domineering and arrogant nature was even stronger than that of Old Sun.

Her words immediately enraged Lu Ming.

"In my capacity as President of the Lu's Group, I hereby announce that, due to Liao Haitao's serious violation of hotel management regulations by abusing his position for personal gain, he is being removed from his position as General Manager of Wantai Hotel, and all employment relations between him and the hotel are hereby terminated!"

Lu Ming announced this loudly to Liao Haitao and the hotel staff and managers who had gathered around.

"President Lu...please stop..."

Liao Haitao was so anxious he was about to cry, but he knew President Lu's style of doing things and knew that pleading at this point would be useless.

"Fine! Mr. Lu, you've got guts! You just wait!"

Old Sun's daughter was also furious, her face turning pale. She immediately picked up her phone and dialed her brother's number: "Brother! Dad, Haitao, and I are being bullied! Come quick! We're at the Wantai Hotel's catering department!"

Li Mu was speechless; he hadn't expected that a meal would turn into such a mess.

He and Lu Ming exchanged a glance.

But Li Mu seemed to realize that although Lu Ming maintained her authority in the group, the occasional furrowed brows indicated that she was also very worried.

Li Mu was too lazy to consult the oracle about how to resolve this matter today.

After all, he felt that this matter didn't really concern him much.

However, the hotel manager, Liao Haitao, violated regulations, which was accidentally revealed by his arrogant father and wife, and Lu Ming overheard it.

As the CEO, it is perfectly reasonable for Lu Ming to manage the company's internal affairs.

This was a matter within Luming Enterprise, and Li Mu felt he shouldn't interfere or meddle.

To Lu Ming's surprise, Sun Jiancheng, the director of the Market Supervision Bureau, actually came, and not alone, but with five or six people, including a man in a hat.

Judging from their posture, it's clear they're there to protect their own.

"Brother, it's them! A poor old man and the president of some Lu Group! They bullied us! They even said they'd fire Haitao! Dad mentioned your name, and she still said you're nothing, the director of the Market Supervision Bureau! Your monthly salary isn't even enough for her to buy a bottle of perfume!"

When Old Sun's daughter saw her brother arrive, she immediately went up to him and exaggerated his story.

Hearing Old Sun's daughter spouting baseless nonsense, Li Mu and Lu Ming exchanged helpless glances and shook their heads.

"Dad, what happened?"

Sun Jiancheng probably knew what kind of person his sister was, so he didn't completely believe her and went directly to ask his father.

He did not greet Lu Ming.

He still displayed an air of officialdom quite obviously.

"Jiancheng, your brother-in-law is the general manager of this hotel. He gave us a discount when we came to eat, which I think is only fair. But this General Manager Lu is insisting on firing him. I tried to reason with her, but she was very stubborn and insisted on firing Haitao. I had no choice but to ask you to come and put in a good word for me."

Old Sun said to his son.

Although his words weren't as outrageous or absurd as his daughter's, he still downplayed the issue and acted aggrieved, shifting all the blame onto Lu Ming.

Anyway, the father and daughter are the same kind of people: the guilty party accuses the innocent first, and the thief cries "stop thief!"

At this moment, Sun Jiancheng turned his gaze to Lu Ming's face.
