Chapter 455: There’s Actually a Competition (Part 1)

Miao Jia’s words only added to the amusement of the muscular coach and the deputy manager. Oh, another one playing the same tune, huh? How impressive must their friend be that they’re eager to show off? As for the muscular coach and the deputy manager, they weren’t exactly pushovers.

Especially the deputy manager, who managed such a large ski resort and had a wide network in the provincial city, including company CEOs and business leaders. To expand the ski resort’s business, he would negotiate deals every winter, offering tickets as benefits to their employees, which also benefited the CEOs and managers, maintaining good relationships with them.

What gave the deputy manager even more confidence was his recent acquaintance with a ‘big boss’ named Wang, who was very wealthy. Wang’s background was said to be very impressive, having connections with high-ranking officials in the province. Wang had even told him that he could contact him anytime if there was an issue he couldn’t solve.

Thinking about it, the deputy manager was even a bit eager to escalate the situation, curious about the capabilities of these young men and women in their twenties. More importantly, he saw this as an opportunity to pave his way to becoming a CEO himself. After all, it’s one thing to have connections, but utilizing them effectively is another. Winning this battle could enhance his reputation and facilitate his upward mobility.

After hearing Miao Jia’s words, the deputy manager remained dismissive and even pushed her to the ground, causing her to twist her foot.

“Ouch…” Miao Jia cried out in pain.

A young and handsome ski instructor, already smitten by her ‘charm,’ rushed to help.

“Little Sun, get lost!” the deputy manager shouted, intimidating the instructor named Little Sun into retreating after helping Miao Jia up.

The crowd, now numbering over a hundred, was eagerly waiting to see who would make the call and show who was more powerful.

“I think this guy is just bluffing,” someone commented.

“Look at him, he’s just a university student. His clothes are nice, so maybe his parents are in business?”

“But that’s useless here. This is their territory.”

“Unless he’s a high-ranking official, and a significant one at that, given the deputy manager’s demeanor, it seems he really can’t be swayed.”

Almost no one was optimistic about Zhao Qingfeng’s chances.

Listening to the murmurs of the crowd, the deputy manager and the muscular coach became even more smug.

Zhao Qingfeng laughed, holding Shen Lingyao’s hand, “Lingyao, do you think this ski resort needs some discipline?”

Shen Lingyao nodded seriously, “Yes, they’ve gone too far, even daring to insult me. This time, I won’t stop you, Brother Qingfeng. Take revenge for me.”

Even a mud man has his limits, let alone Shen Lingyao.

No girl wants to be called a ‘prostitute,’ even if she were one.

Zhao Qingfeng nodded lightly and called Wang Yang.

He didn’t even need to contact Deputy Mayor Gao; Wang Yang was enough. Meanwhile, the deputy manager wasn’t idle either, fearing the other party would reach out to the resort’s CEO first. He called ‘Boss Wang,’ “Big Brother Wang, there’s a bit of trouble here. Can you come over? Yes, at the ski resort. Someone’s threatening to get me and my cousin fired.”

Whatever was said on the other end, the deputy manager hung up the phone, chuckling.

Now, it was a waiting game. The Changbai Ski Resort was in the suburbs, and with snow on the roads making driving difficult, it would take at least an hour to get there.

It wasn’t that Wang Yang couldn’t settle things with a phone call.
