Urban Divine Doctor Descends the Mountain

Chapter 415: Chapter 415: Still Boasting

As soon as he said those words, everyone’s gaze instantly turned toward him.

The general manager frowned slightly and said impatiently, ”This is a members-only establishment. Are you a member?”

Qiao Guoting shook his head. He naturally wasn’t a member here.

”If you’re not, then please leave right away,” the general manager huffed.

Seeing this, Qiao Guoting’s complexion turned unsightly, but since Lin Dong had already made the claim, if they couldn’t hold the banquet here, the Qiao Family would inevitably be laughed at.

He had no choice but to pluck up his courage and say, ”I used to work as a Medicine Supervisor, and my granddaughter is Qiao Xue, the CEO of Qiao Group...”

”I hope you can extend some courtesy to the Qiao Family.”

”Pfft—” As soon as these words came out, the general manager burst into laughter.

”I thought you were somebody of importance, oh my, a retired Medicine Supervisor, a CEO of a company with a market value of just a billion or so, and you have the nerve to bring this up.”

”Alright, I’ll be blunt. The Qiao Family will not be able to book a banquet here for this birthday event!”

Having said that, he immediately turned to Zhou Na, Zhou Ming, and the others.

With a beaming smile, he said, ”Miss Zhou Na, this way, please. I’ll have someone brew a pot of tea for you, and we can sit down and talk.”

”We’ll make sure to host Elder Zhou’s major birthday in style!”

Upon hearing this, a smile appeared on Zhou Na’s face.

She then looked toward the Qiao Family, what a shame that Lin Dong and Qiao Bing weren’t there.

Otherwise, she would have made sure they witnessed this scene.

And understand the gap between the two families.

”Elder Qiao, there are some things you shouldn’t force too much. At your age of sixty, you surely understand one principle: do not take on more than you can handle,” she said.

”If you cannot hold a banquet at Misty Vacation Hotel, then just go to another hotel. I remember there’s a Four Star Hotel nearby—it might not compare to the Misty Vacation Hotel, but it’s still quite decent.

”They certainly won’t refuse you there!”

Upon hearing this, Elder Qiao’s face turned even uglier.

Chu Yunxiu could hardly suppress her urge to scold. Having competed with the Zhou Family for the better part of her life, she never imagined she’d see the day when their younger generation would mock her own.

It was truly humiliating.

”It’s all that damn Lin Dong’s fault for making such claims. Now our entire family has lost dignity because of him!”

Chu Yunxiu inwardly fumed, directing all the blame onto Lin Dong.

”Remember, don’t let Lin Dong make such boasts again in the future. Lest your family lose even more dignity because of him.”

Leaving these parting words, Zhou Na followed the general manager into the hotel.

Chu Lan also wanted to follow them in but was stopped by Chu Yunxiu.

”Chu Lan, whose relatives are you exactly?”

With no other option, Chu Lan had to stop in her tracks and joined the Qiao Family gathering.

”Sigh, let’s go home,” Elder Qiao sighed and turned to head back.

On the way, Chu Yunxiu complained:

”Lin Dong has already bragged, and all our friends and relatives expect us to host the banquet at the Grand Hotel.”

”But they just won’t give us any respect, what do we do now?”

”We can only ask Xiaoxue to find a way again,” Elder Qiao said and called Qiao Xue again.

On the other end, Qiao Xue replied, ”Grandpa, don’t worry. I just thought of a friend who, if willing, can definitely help us!”

The ’friend’ she was thinking of was naturally Lin Tiance, whom she had encountered on the airplane.

She thought, if Lin Tiance would speak up for them, wouldn’t this matter be a piece of cake?

”Okay, we’ll wait for your good news!”

After hanging up the phone, everyone from the Qiao Family walked to the entrance of the resort.

Chu Lan and Chu Yunxiu were cursing Lin Dong all the way.

Chu Lan said, ”Auntie, you have no idea, I just bumped into Lin Dong a moment ago.”

”A dog can’t change its nature to stop eating filth. He has to boast every day, or he’d die. Just now, he was clearly delivering food to someone in the villa area, yet he claimed that Villa Number 1 was his...”

She shared the incident that had just occurred, in front of everyone.

After listening, Chu Yunxiu was so furious she was fuming.

Meanwhile, someone suddenly remarked,

”Hey, isn’t that Lin Dong over there?”

Hearing this, everyone turned to look in the direction pointed out.

Indeed, they saw Lin Dong carrying a medicine jar, approaching from a distance.

Upon seeing Lin Dong, Chu Yunxiu became even more enraged.

She blocked Lin Dong’s path and berated him, ”Lin Dong, look at the mess you’ve made.”

”Because of your boasting, our Qiao Family has to clean up after you.”

”Do you realize that even Elder Qiao suffered humiliation just now because of you?”

Hearing this, Lin Dong’s expression changed and he asked coldly, ”What happened?”

Chu Yunxiu proceeded to explain the situation in detail to Lin Dong.

After she finished, she didn’t forget to continue scolding Lin Dong, ”All of this, it’s your fault for showing off.”

Seeing this, Lin Dong turned to Elder Qiao and said,

”Grandfather Qiao, please relax. I’ll go have a word with the Zhou Family right away and ask them to clear the best banquet venue for us.”

”As for the manager who just humiliated Grandfather Qiao, I think he doesn’t need to keep working here anymore.”

Hearing this, Chu Lan snickered.

”Lin Dong, you really talk tough. To be boasting at a time like this!”

Chu Yunxiu was also furious, her face reddening as she pointed at Lin Dong and said,

”Who do you think you are? Dismissing that manager, by what right do you have?’

”Just because this entire resort now belongs to me,” Lin Dong replied indifferently.

Then, without bothering to say more, he continued on with a stern face, carrying the jar inside.

Someone asked, ”Should we follow to see what happens?”

”What’s there to look at? Want to lose face with them?” said Chu Yunxiu dismissively.

Everyone else thought so too.

As for Elder Qiao, he just sighed heavily.

Even he felt that Lin Dong’s recent proclamation was nothing but hot air.

After all, what he said was just too unrealistic—claiming that the entire resort belonged to him, when clearly it was the Zhou Family’s.
