I suddenly became a yakuza boss.

"Welcome to Chibayama Guesthouse. I'm the owner. Are you all satisfied with the food? At this time of year, the scenery of Chibayama, a famous skiing and mountaineering mecca behind the guesthouse, is exceptionally beautiful. You can swim safely and cool off at the waterfall. About 20 miles away is Narita Dream Ranch, where you can also experience farm and ranch life. In short, I hope you all have a wonderful three-day trip."

Li Xuan, dressed in a suit, sat in his seat and delivered a speech to the more than thirty girls in front of him.

In fact, the guesthouse's location was quite good. Li Xuan knew the surrounding tourist attractions like the back of his hand. However, the most important thing was the snow scenery. When heavy snow closed the mountains, the place would attract the most snow-viewing and hiking tourists. In summer and autumn, the 27-meter-high mountain spring waterfall in Chiba was a major attraction for tourists. After the market development in Chiba Prefecture, Li Xuan began to work on tapping into the international tourist market.

"If anyone has any questions or concerns about our restaurant during this banquet, please raise your hand and ask."

As the innkeeper, Li Xuan, out of courtesy and humility, was responsible for answering questions and providing guidance to the innkeeper during welcoming occasions.

As a result, many girls started raising their hands.

I never expected these students to have so many questions about his shop.

As a result, after the first girl was called on, she asked, "Will the store manager come over to play cards with us at night?"

This doesn't seem like a proper question.

"I won't be in the shop at night."

Li Xuan remained silent for a moment before replying.

The second girl asked, "Does the manager knock on our room doors to wake us up every morning?"

"Will the store manager offer us a sake-pouring service later?"

"Does the manager treat us like this for every meal?"

I have a feeling that these girls aren't really interested in tourist attractions and guesthouses...

After the incident at the Joint School Festival, this senior student officially surpassed Hayama Hayato in popularity at Saitama Girls' Middle School during the bonfire party. It seems that because Soubu High School regarded them as a school for underachievers, Hayama Hayato, despite being a good person, was perceived as being aligned with the elite students of Soubu High School. As a replacement, the senior student of unknown origin quickly rose to prominence, and Saitama Girls' Middle School naturally welcomed him with great enthusiasm.

With Li Xuan completely bewildered and confused by the situation, the hospitality at the guesthouse came to an end after Waseda's stern warning.

※※※※※

As Mount Chiba gradually faded into the night, it grew closer and closer to 5 p.m.

Li Xuan nominally left the guesthouse and began to hide in the shadows of the hotel.

Sure enough, a line of black cars pulled up in the parking lot, and another group of guests arrived at the entrance of the guesthouse.

The leader was Baba Kiyoshi. As the young master of the Ashikawa Group, Baba was a true fighter. As a high-ranking member of the Ashikawa Group, Baba Kiyoshi was loyal and devoted to him, but in fact, when he was in a bad mood, especially when he was certain that Baba had thoughts of leaving, he would not hesitate to use any means to achieve his goal.

But Li Xuan didn't recognize the middle-aged man who got out of the back seat next.

He was a tall man with a gloomy face.

His full beard and somewhat haggard appearance suggested he had endured considerable suffering...

"!"

Li Xuan, who was hiding by the office window, suddenly realized his identity!

Naito Tatsuhiko, the head of the Ashikawa Group and the boss's executioner, was involved in a fierce battle with a rival gang two years ago. He single-handedly took down four armed members with a knife, which was faster than a gun. He is a ruthless character who has killed countless people for the boss. The "Dragon of Kansai" even considered whether Naito was present when they attacked Chikura, which shows how terrifying he is.

Li Xuan had never met the third-in-command in the group before. He didn't expect that Chief Steward Naito had been released from prison. It seemed that Baba had come here for a vacation to welcome him back.

"..."

Li Xuan was not particularly pleased with the return of the chief steward.

Because he had heard what others had said when he sat in seat number four.

The future young master will be chosen between him and Naito.

The sky gradually darkened.

Inside the guesthouse, the students of Kijitama Girls' Junior High School quickly noticed that a group of men with menacing faces had arrived in the right wing at some point.

Although they couldn't determine where they came from, it made the group of girls a little wary.

"Lugong, who are they? They seem scary."

A short-haired girl inquired about the guesthouse's management, Hebi Palace.

Lu Gong remained calm and composed. After a moment of silence, he reassured her, "It's alright. They are not dangerous people. Please don't panic. They are all employees from a legitimate company."

After managing to calm her classmates down, she looked at Hitomi Mishima again.

Mishima was professional in his hospitality, showing no fear as he led them to the other side of the area, appearing quite reliable.

The shop manager called her "Phoenix Chick" and Mishima "Sleeping Dragon".

It seems to mean that their abilities are roughly equivalent.

Shiori Sagamiya looked at the girl four years younger than her, observing the figure of a girl who could stand shoulder to shoulder with her...

I hope everything goes smoothly tonight.

Inside the venue, after Baba Kiyoshi and "Executioner" Naito Tatsuhiko soaked in the hot spring, in the changing room, both of them had ferocious totems tattooed on their backs.

After putting on their bathrobes, the two sat on a soft cushion in the courtyard.

"After you take a shower, you can officially go to the company tomorrow. You've had a tough two years in prison, Longyan."

Baba sipped his sake and said to Naito.

Looking at the night sky, Naito Tatsuhiko said, "Baba, I heard a lot about the Ashikawa Group while I was in prison."

Baba fell silent.

"The battle with the Kansai gangs, and... the Omi-kai have both attacked."

Naito smiled and said, "The battle was really dangerous. I was sweating bullets for you guys. But it seems that a promising young man has joined our group. Because of him, all the dangers were blocked."

"That's right, such a person has come. Dad thinks highly of him."

Kiyoshi Baba seemed cautious about this topic, agreeing as he spoke.

"He has repeatedly distinguished himself in battle and is at the height of his fame; even his father greatly admires him..."

"【The War Ghost of Ashikawa】......."

"Make arrangements for me, young master. I wish to meet the legendary ghost."

Naito Tatsuhiko made his request with a somewhat sinister tone.

Chapter 109 Family Gathering; The Ghost of the Inn (5.5k)

6:30 PM.

The atmosphere at the guesthouse was fraught with danger!

Li Xuan stayed in his office, watching the closed-circuit television the entire time, observing everything happening in every corner of the guesthouse.

This is the most chaotic situation to date, and he is on high alert against his own people!

When it was time for dinner, Li Xuan was eating the snacks that Shiori Lugong had given him while drinking strong coffee when he noticed a small van parked in front of the camera.

It's strange; this is the first time I've ever seen guests staying overnight at his shop at this time of day.

As a result, a girl wearing a blue hoodie and with short, dark orange hair jumped out of the car—it was Yui Yuigahama!

"Mom, here it is! This is the guesthouse I told you about before, the one run by a senior I know. Isn't it great?" Yui Yuigahama's voice could still be faintly heard by the window. The mother she was talking about was a middle-aged woman in her early forties with a similar appearance to Yui. She had the air of a homemaker, but she was also the kind of cute woman who was quite likable.

Li Xuan didn't understand why Yui Yuigahama had come at this critical moment, but before he could be surprised, the mother and daughter were already walking towards the door with simple luggage.

To avoid any unforeseen complications, Li Xuan had no choice but to set off to pick up the mother and daughter he had unexpectedly encountered.

Just as Yui Yuigahama stepped through the doorway, Li Xuan suddenly appeared, startling Yui and her mother so much that they turned pale and took a step back!

Soon, after recognizing the other person, Yui immediately smiled with delight and exclaimed, "Senpai!!"

Li Xuan asked, "Yuigahama-san, what brings you here?"

Upon hearing this, Yui Yuigahama immediately put an arm around her mother, and the two of them smiled. Yui explained, "By the way, this is my mother! My mother recently heard about your guesthouse, and she said that your place has hot springs and nice decor. My mother has been busy with housework lately, so she decided to come here for a vacation and support you!"

From the moment they met, Yuihama's mother kept staring at Li Xuan, seemingly quite interested in him.

Mother, this atmosphere is more like that of sisters.

"Nice to meet you, you must be Nitta-kun. It seems my daughter has been taken care of by you."

Yuihama's mother smiled and gave a slight bow, her expression kind and gentle, and said...

"No, no, you're too kind."

Li Xuan looked at the mother of another female high school student, his expression somewhat restrained, and said.

What's going on? He's been seeing the high school girl's mother quite frequently lately.

"Besides talking about Xiaoxue and Xiaoqi at home, my daughter always talks about you too. She says you saved her when she was being harassed by thugs, and that you're an overly honest and handsome guy... mmm..."

Yuihama's mother was still gossiping when Yui covered her mouth tightly. Yuihama's cheeks flushed red, and she nervously said to Li Xuan, "My mother can be quite talkative sometimes, so she didn't say any of this. Please don't mind her, senpai!"

I had recently met Yukino and Yukino's mother, and experienced the beauty and danger of the Yuki-onna (snow woman) during a blizzard. Now, Yui's mother is completely different, possessing a warm and beautiful charm reminiscent of the sun.

Facing the mother and daughter who looked like sisters, and learning the purpose of their happy vacation, Li Xuan felt quite awkward. However, the atmosphere here was a bit different from usual, so he said, "I'm sorry, two tour groups have arrived today, and all the rooms have been booked."

As soon as the words were spoken, the mother and daughter, who were standing at the door of the guesthouse with their luggage, had the exact same reaction: blank stares.

"Huh..."

"Eeeeeeeee!!"

Yui gasped in shock.

"Yes, it's unfortunate that it's full today."

With a slightly apologetic expression, Li Xuan asked Yui, who seemed a little skeptical, for confirmation.

Yuihama's mother was also a little helpless, glancing at her daughter who looked disappointed.

Li Xuan said, "I'm sorry, but next time you come, I'll provide you with the best room, completely free of charge..."

Yui waved her hands, refusing, and said, "No, it's okay, there's nothing we can do about it. Besides, I'm here to spend money. We would feel bad if you gave us something for free, so please don't do this. Just treat us as ordinary customers."

They also saw that the parking lot was full of cars and the surrounding noise suggested that it was packed with customers.

With a regretful expression, Yui turned to leave.

Upon seeing this, Li Xuan fell silent.

I don’t know why, but lately he’s become more and more soft-hearted.
