Chapter 84: 084: Attending a Wedding (2)
Lotte Tower Hotel
Hotel Manager's Office...
After settling the Lin family and her friends into their rooms, Yue Xuexia came to the manager's office as Hotel Manager Lee requested. A hot strawberry rose milk tea set and a few bite sized desserts were served on the table. Inside the office, not only the hotel manager was around but all the important hotel personnel were waiting for her arrival. They couldn't believe that such a young lady owned one of the biggest hotels in Korea. Manager Lee waited for Yue Xuexia to speak first.
Yue Xuexia noticed his intention and asked, "Even though I am the owner of the Lotte Tower, I'm sure that I told you before that everything in the hotel will be left to your care. For you request my presence, there must be something that is out of your power. Speak, why did you summon me?"
Hotel Manager Lee Hyuntae stepped forward and reported what happened. "Mistress, It's the Han Family. They wanted us to decline the wedding reception for Miss Lin Ruri and Young Master Han Yoonjun."
Clang!
Suddenly the whole office was quiet, and as Yue Xuexia put down her tea cup with force, a sound of glass echoed in the room. Everyone flinched at that sound and they wouldn't help but sneak a peek at that young owner of the Lotte Tower. They saw the beautiful lady with carefree demeanor before turning completely cold. They couldn't control shivering at sight.
Yue Xuexia said, "Han Family? Are they against the wedding of my friend and their descendants?"
"Yes. They said that Miss Lin is not only a foreigner but also a commoner," responded Hotel Manager Lee Hyuntae.
Upon hearing these common words of disdain, Yue Xuexie couldn't help but sneer. Making everyone inside the office uncomfortable. It seems that this young lady isn't simple after all. She looks down on the Han Family.
Yue Xuexia said, "The wedding shall not be postponed. Is there anyone from Han checked in the hotel? Refund them and throw them out. Anyone from the Han Family except for Han Yoonjun is banned from using Lotte Tower Facilities and from all my business here in Korea. Sister Bingyu, arrange it please."
"Yes, Mistress," Tan Bingyu responded.
Yue Xuexia narrowed her eyes at Hotel Manager Lee and said, "Do you understand, Manager Lee Hyuntae?"
"Yes, Mistress. I will listen to your command," Hotel Manager Lee said.
Yue Xuexia said, "Sister Bingyu, I want information about the families stronger than the Han Family and the rivals of the Han Clan."
"I will gather everything tonight and report to the Mistress everything tomorrow," said Tan Bingyu.
Yue Xuexia stood up and lost her appetite to enjoy the tea. She left the office in a bad mood, while Tan Bingyu stayed to clean up after her mistress. There are also a lot of things to investigate, and everything must be arranged before the next morning.
Everyone sighed in relief the moment the owner left. The aura of the young lady was too suffocating, especially when she got angry just now. Even those who were used to serving chaebols that checked into their hotel felt overwhelmed just being in front of their owner.
Tan Bingyu said, "Mr. Lee Hyuntae, send the others away, and you stay. I have a lot of questions for you."
"Yes, Miss Tan." Hotel Manager Lee Hyuntae bowed his head before turning back to look at his subordinates. "You've heard the Mistress' command just now. Send away everyone from the Han Clan who had checked in the Lotte Tower. Refund them! If they don't agree, ask the guards to send them out!"
"Yes!"
After a while, the whole Lotte Tower Hotel was in chaos as a few of the Han family members fought back as they were thrown out of the hotel. In the end, the people of the Tan Clan step forward and forcibly throw them out. The difference in strength between a mortal and a cultivator is large. Even a child cultivator can drag away an adult mortal. The commotion at the hotel stopped when the cultivators stepped in and the other guests who were frightened by the scene were compensated accordingly by the hotel.
Meanwhile, at the Manager Lee's office,
Tan Bingyu had just sent more of her clansmen to gather all the information her mistress asked of her. That night, all the branch of Mystic Guardian branch in Korea had been mobilized. Those who were watching at the foreign cultivation branch in Korea were all informed. What happened tonight had given the Han Clan humiliation they might not easily forget.
"Gather all the information about the Han Family for me," said Tan Bingyu.
"Yes, Young lady." A cultivator from the Tan Family saluted before disappearing on the spot after giving Manager Lee a glance.
Once Tan Bingyu and Hotel Manager Lee were the only ones left inside the office, they had a conversation about their mistress. They both have the same master though one is a mortal and the other is a cultivator, it didn't change the fact that they are both from the same side.
Manager Lee asked, "Will the Mistress be alright?"
"Don't worry about her. She has someone to accompany her. But you did good in reporting about the Han Family. I've already suspected they will do this when I heard that Han Yoonjun is from the Han Clan. Even though the Mistress looks easy to befriend with, she is also an overprotective person. She only has three true friends in her life. Miss Lin Ruri is among them. That's why she would never let go of the Han Family so easily," Tan Bingyu said.
Hotel Manager Lee recalled the young lady named Miss Ru and the young man called Xiao Muen. "Are the two others, Miss Ru and Sir Xiao, then?"
"Yes. The family from before is Miss Lin's family. That's why you should make sure to treat them well," Tan Bingyu said.
The Hotel Manager of the Lotte Tower Hotel nods his head in agreement. He plans to make the arrangements needed for serving the guests the owner has come with. This time, he decided to treat them as the hotel's noble guests.
Then he asked, "Is there something you need me to do?"
"The Wedding Reception. Don't let anyone from the Han Clan get involved. Only accept the request of the groom, your priority is the choices of the time bride," said Tan Bingyu.
The Hotel Manager Lee said, "Yes. I listen to the orders. Please excuse me for now as I need to resume my duties."
"Go ahead. If you see a man in the Mistress's room don't be surprised. That man is not a mortal." Tan Bingyu warned.
"Yes."

Meanwhile, in the other Presidential Suite…
Yue Xuexia who was in a bad mood, was now lying on the bed annoyed with Yangyang in his little sun form, hovering worriedly for her.
[Don't take it to heart. A mere mortal clan, Tan Bingyu can handle it easily.]
Yue Xuexia said, "I'm worried. Xiao Ru had been waiting for this marriage all her life. She finally found the person she loves with all her heart. Even though she and Mumu had a history, this is the first time she is willing to bear a child for someone and she would inform us of such happy news with a delighted voice. So, I know that she truly likes Han Yoonjun. How can that Han Clan destroy her wedding day!? They are making me angry."
[Don't get angry at things that can be solved. Didn't you still have intermediate gift bags from doing missions? Open those for fun and forget about the Han Family.]
Without even Yue Xuexia agreeing to anything, eight purple gift bags with golden vines patterns appeared on the bed. These are Intermediate-grad gift bags from the system after completing some task. She hasn't done many novice tasks, which is why she didn't have many novice grade gift bags in her system's inventory.
Yue Xuexia said, "System, please help me open my gift bags."
[I can open it too, Xue'er] said Yangyang, but before he can open the gift bags, the system had already made a move.
[Xue'er had opened eight intermediate grade gift bags.]
[Congratulations Xue'er for obtaining 15% shares of Samsang Electronics.]
[Congratulations Xue'er for obtaining 25% shares of Hyunda Motors.]
[Congratulations Xue'er for obtaining 35% shares of MIA Automotive.]
[Congratulations Xue'er for obtaining 55% shares of Han Finance Corporation.]
[Congratulations Xue'er for obtaining Jeju Island's Seaside Resort.]
[Congratulations Xue'er for obtaining 65% shares of Wookmin Bank.]
[Congratulations Xue'er for obtaining Moon Lotus Dance Foot Techniques.]
[Congratulations Xue'er for obtaining 500 years for cultivation.]
[Xue'er Cultivation has now reached the 5th level of Qi Refinement Stage.]
Yue Xuexia was dumbfounded by the things she got from the gift bags. She suddenly became one of the richest people in Korea as soon as she arrived in the country. She is especially delighted about the shares that involve the Han Clan, the Han Finance Corporation.
"System! T-This Han Finance Corporation. Is it the one owned by the Han Family that is annoying me just now!? You are really giving it to me?" asked Yue Xuexia in excitement and delight.
[Um. It's all yours. That's why don't be in a bad mood anymore. They wouldn't dare stop the wedding of your friend now.]
Yue Xuexia smiled in happiness and said, "Thank you, System. You're so good to me. I love you~"
Yangyang retorted, [Your love is quite cheap. You gave it away so easily.]
"I only gave it to you and the system. I like you two the most! Hahaha~" said Yue Xuexia as she passed all the new assets lists that entered her pockets to Tan Bingyu to handle.
Tan Bingyu was dumbfounded by the list and an hour later after she received the list she started receiving calls from these companies checking on her Mistress who bought the shares tonight. Her phone was ringing all day thanks to her tasks as Yue Xuexia's secretary.

On the other hand, in the Han Family's Main Mansion…
The news of their descendants and people being thrown out of the Lotte Tower Hotel had finally reached the ears of the Han Family's head, Han Daehyun. This man is Han Yoonjun's grandfather and the owner of Han Finance Corporation. Inside a luxurious office, a glass cup came flying towards the door which terrified the secretaries and subordinates of the old man. There is also Han Yoonjun's father, mother and younger brother. They were among the people who were thrown out of Lotte Tower Hotel under the command of Yue Xuexia.
CRASHED!
Old Han Daehyun said while gritting his teeth, "Bang-geum gyeongbiwondeul-ege losdetawo-eseo jjochgyeonassdaga hwanbulbad-assdago hadeongayo!? Dodaeche neohuideul-eun museun jis-eul han geoya!?"
Translation: [Did you just say you were thrown out of Lotte Tower by the guards and were refunded out of nowhere!? What the hell did you guys do!?]
Father Han said, "Abeoji, ulineun amu jisdo an haess-eoyo!? Geu yeoja gajog-i dochaghaeseo gyeolhonsig-eul chwisohagil gidaligo iss-eoyo!"
Translation: [Father, we didn't do anything!? We are waiting for that girl's family to arrive and cancel the wedding!]
Old Han got angrier when he heard his son's words. "Gyeolhonsig-eul chwisohasigessseubnikka? dodaeche museun solileul haneun geoya? Nae sonjaui sinbuga imi imsinhaessneunde gyeolhonsig-eul chwisohago sipnayo?! Neo jejeongsin-iya?"
Translation: [Cancel the wedding? What the hell are you talking about? My grandson's bride is already pregnant, and you want to cancel their wedding?! Are you insane?]
Mother Han complained, "Abeoji, jeo yeojaneun jeongmal bulssanghan salam-ieyo! Geu salam-eun nae yunjun-ihante jagyeog-i eobs-eo! Agiga taeeonamyeon agileul deligo don-eul jugo bonael su iss-eoyo."
Translation: [Father, that woman is just a poor person! She doesn't deserve my Yoonjun! We can take the baby after she gives birth and send her away with money.]
The old man finally flared in anger and shouted, "Ib damul-eo! geu salam-eun dangsin-ui myeoneuliibnida! Neohui dul-i ileonikka keun-adeul-i gajog-eul tteonan geoya. deudda! Gamhi nae sonnyeottal-ege son-eul daemyeon neohui dul-eul jjoch-anaegessda!"
Translation: [Shut your mouth! That's your daughter-in-law! It's because you two are like this that your eldest son left the family. Listen! If you dare make a move on my granddaughter-in-law I will send you two away!]
The middle-aged couple turned mute under this shout. Only then did the old man remember that these three were thrown out of Lotte Tower Hotel by the management. This only means that the owner itself had issued for them to be sent away.
Old Han looked at his youngest grandson, Han Yeonjun. "Yeonssineun losdetawohotel-eseo jjochgyeonagi jeonhue museun il-i iss-eossneunji malhaejuseyo."
Translation: [Yeon, you tell me what happened before and after you were sent away from the Lotte Tower Hotel.]
The man who was called Han Yeonjun is just a few years younger than Han Yoonjun. He nods towards his grandfather. He told him how his parents want the Lotte Tower to reject the wedding reception of his elder brother, and he declined many times, leading to his parents causing commotion in the hotel. Then they heard from one of the hotel staffs that Lin Ruri's family will be checking in the hotel. His parents wanted to meet them and forced the Lin family to cancel the wedding. But we couldn't even meet the Lin family. Afterwards, the hotel management refunded them of their money, and they were sent out by the guards since his parents don't want to live.
The more Han Daehyun listens, the angrier he gets and glares at the couple whose heads were lowered in fear of the old man's fury. In the end, the middle-aged couple were sent out of the office, leaving only Han Yeonjun to talk with the old man.
