Lin Hao was thinking about these things and was about to go out with Xiao Hei.
Liu Yongchang's phone suddenly rang.
"It's Zhou Renjie!" Liu Yongchang glanced at the caller ID and was startled.
"It's fine, answer it," Lin Hao said calmly, looking at Liu Yongchang.
Liu Yongchang took a deep breath and answered the call.
But when he finished listening to Zhou Renjie's words on the phone, his face changed instantly.
"What did he say?"
"He said..." Liu Yongchang hesitated for a moment, looking at Lin Hao, then said, "He asked if I had seen you. If I had, he said to tell you he was waiting for you at Jin Huang Restaurant."
"Jin Huang Restaurant?"
"Yes."
Liu Yongchang nodded, then looked at Lin Hao anxiously and said, "Is he setting a trap?"
"Yeah, brother, why don't we not go? This is definitely a Hongmen Banquet," Lai Qingsheng also looked at Lin Hao and quickly said.
"It's fine, I was going to find him anyway. Since he's already booked a place, it will save a lot of trouble."
"But..." Liu Yongchang looked at Lin Hao. Seeing that Lin Hao's mind was made up, he immediately said, "Since we're going, we'll go with you."
"I'm going too!" Lai Qingsheng also looked at Lin Hao and said.
Lin Hao smiled when he saw the determined look on Liu Yongchang and Lai Qingsheng's faces, as if they were determined to follow him to the death. "Alright, let's go together then."
After Lin Hao finished speaking, he drove towards Jin Huang Restaurant with Liu Yongchang, Lai Qingsheng, and Xiao Hei.
Jin Huang Restaurant was one of the famous top restaurants in Modu.
The entire Jin Huang Restaurant operated on a membership system. Only members could dine there.
The highest level of membership at Jin Huang Restaurant was the Five-Star Member.
Those who held a Five-Star Membership at Jin Huang Restaurant were usually famous figures nationwide or dignitaries from the capital.
Only such people could possess a Five-Star Membership at Jin Huang Restaurant, which was very strict.
Of course, according to legend, Jin Huang Restaurant also had a Supreme Member.
However, this Supreme Member had never shown their face, nor had they ever dined at Jin Huang Restaurant.
Therefore, many people had already forgotten about the Supreme Member of Jin Huang Restaurant, and many even believed that it was just a gimmick deliberately put out by Jin Huang Restaurant to reserve the Supreme Member for their own family and thus inflate their own prestige.
Lin Hao, Xiao Hei, Liu Yongchang, and Lai Qingsheng arrived at Jin Huang Restaurant.
Fortunately, Liu Yongchang and Lai Qingsheng were both Three-Star Members of Jin Huang Restaurant. Otherwise, if Lin Hao and Xiao Hei had come alone, they would have likely been stopped by now.
At first, Lin Hao didn't understand why Zhou Renjie chose this place, thinking he just wanted to highlight his status.
Only after entering did Lin Hao understand Zhou Renjie's little scheme.
Lin Hao shook his head with a smile and, led by the service staff, headed towards the Three-Star private room.
Lin Hao looked around as he walked.
The entire restaurant had twelve floors. The one-star private rooms for one-star members were the most numerous, occupying three floors.
Then came the two-star private rooms, occupying two floors.
Next were the three-star private rooms, occupying one floor.
After that were the four-star private rooms, occupying two floors in total area.
Finally, there were the five-star private rooms, occupying three floors in total area.
As for the top floor, it was rumored to be the location of Jin Huang Restaurant's Supreme Private Room, but no one had ever seen it opened or used.
Moreover, the fact that one private room occupied an entire floor seemed too exaggerated.
Therefore, not many people believed such rumors.
After about two to three minutes, Lin Hao, Xiao Hei, Liu Yongchang, and Lai Qingsheng arrived at the door of the private room booked by Zhou Renjie.
Xiao Hei was about to kick the door open, but Lin Hao stopped him.
Lin Hao pushed the door open and walked in.
Xiao Hei, Liu Yongchang, and Lai Qingsheng followed closely.
Zhou Renjie was reclining on a leather sofa, with his legs crossed, already waiting for Lin Hao.
Xiao He stood to his left, and a young man in a suit stood to his right.
Judging by the aura emanating from the young man in the suit, it was clear that he was no ordinary person.
Seeing Lin Hao enter, Zhou Renjie immediately looked at Lin Hao and said with a playful smile, "Oh, I didn't expect you to be so quick. I thought you would be stopped at the main entrance."
Lin Hao listened to Zhou Renjie's sarcastic words and shook his head with amusement.
At this moment, Lin Hao felt as if he were facing a child.
However, as Lin Hao shook his head with a smile and remained silent, Lai Qingsheng looked at Zhou Renjie and immediately cursed, "What the hell are you pretending for? If you're so capable, why are you in a three-star private room?"
"If you have the guts, book a four-star or five-star room!"
Upon hearing this, the smile on Zhou Renjie's face froze.
However, Zhou Renjie immediately looked at Lai Qingsheng and sneered, "For today, I will temporarily let you, this old dog, continue to linger for a few more hours."
"After a few hours, your company and all your assets will belong to me."
"And you, our Modu's richest man, Mr. Liu."
As Zhou Renjie spoke, he sneered at Liu Yongchang and Lai Qingsheng, then turned to Lin Hao and said, "Of course, if Mr. Lin makes certain choices, then we can sit down and talk about the affairs of Chairman Liu and President Lai's companies."
"Mr. Lin, what do you say?"
Lin Hao looked at Zhou Renjie's smug expression and smiled slightly, "You want me to leave Modu?"
"Hoo, you said that, I didn't," Zhou Renjie said, spreading his hands and smiling at Lin Hao.
"You!"
"You are shameless!"
"Despicable scoundrel!"
Before Lin Hao could speak, Liu Yongchang and Lai Qingsheng became enraged.
They had been wondering why Zhou Renjie would mobilize the Zhou family's power to suddenly attack them.
Initially, they thought Zhou Renjie just wanted to make Lin Hao uncomfortable and embarrassed by suppressing them.
But they never expected that Zhou Renjie's true intention was to force Lin Hao to leave Modu.
After realizing this, Lai Qingsheng and Liu Yongchang first cursed Zhou Renjie furiously, then immediately looked at Lin Hao and said, "Brother, don't listen to him!"
"Don't worry, even if we go bankrupt, we will never let you leave!"
"You want to use us to force you to leave Modu? No way!"
"Damn it, if you can't win in a competition, you resort to these low-class tactics. How truly vulgar and despicable!"
Zhou Renjie looked at Lai Qingsheng and Liu Yongchang, his face turning somewhat grim, and said, "I advise you to speak properly."
"Perhaps then I will consider leaving you some assets."
"Otherwise..."
"Otherwise, your mother's ass! If you have the guts, take all my assets right now!"
Lai Qingsheng, who already had a fiery temper, jumped up in anger upon hearing Zhou Renjie's words.
At the same time, Zhou Renjie looked at Lai Qingsheng, and his expression completely turned grim.
