Meanwhile, inside the Crimson Lotus Restaurant, Li Yue, still fuming after being slapped and humiliated, angrily dropped back into his seat across from his best friend, Zhang Wei.
"How dare she!" Li Yue shouted, slamming the table. The force caused it to shake violently, producing cracking sounds and spiderweb-like fractures on the surface.
However, the table didn't break—Li Yue had managed to restrain his strength. "Who does she think she is? One slap and she thinks she can walk away like that?"
Zhang Wei, momentarily startled by his best friend's display of power, let out a sigh and shook his head before speaking.
"Calm down, Brother. Venting your anger at her won't do any good. She's the daughter of the Deputy Commissioner General of Beijing."
His tone was steady as he tried to diffuse the situation while simultaneously receiving detailed information about Wei Feng and Shen Zeming on his phone.
