Once Xing Yin had understood what the manager had instructed the hotel staff, she took a few steps backward and moved closer to the hall's door. She must not allow them to detain her at all cost. So, she stared straight into the manager's eyes and spoke. "No, you can't do that. That's illegal detention. Yes, I have no proof that I am Xing Yin at the moment. But you don't have solid evidence to prove that I am not who I claim myself to be, right?" Xing Yin said with a barely concealed smirk on her face. After hearing her words, the crowd of guests and hotel staff started to have different opinions about the situation. "She's right! She is innocent until proven guilty!" Yelled one male guest. "Looks can be deceiving though!" Another guest spoke out loud. "Maybe someone from Xing Airlines can verify her identity!" "Uh-huh! Mr. Manager should ask someone from Xing Airlines to confirm. The lady seemed sincere when she said she's the daughter of Xing Airlines' CEO." As the chatter of the crowd of guests grew louder, Xing Yin had finally turned the tides of the argument into her favor and she even gained support from the bystanders. "I agree... Why don't we call someone from Xing Airlines, CEO Xing's secretary perhaps, to help us clear out the confusion?" Xing Yin brimmed with confidence once again. "We can call Secretary Mo's mobile phone but I am afraid she'll not pick up. Party started two minutes ago." Xing Yin added as she placed her arms across her chest. "If that is the case then, are you telling us that CEO Xing's secretary will just ignore the phone call?" The manager asked. "Most probably, so the next best option left is for the two of us to get inside and look for the CEO's secretary." "How would I know if the person we'll be talking to is the real secretary? What if you have an accomplice inside?" The manager asked, putting up a fight till the very end. "So what do you suggest? Do you still want to detain me in your office? Will you take responsibility if my father sued the management of this hotel for illegal detention?" Xing Yin's voice was calm yet carried a strong impact on the manager. Upon hearing the word sue, the manager started to look agitated. At that moment, Xing Yin's words earlier had now completely sunk into his thick skull. Now, he'd rather apologize to this lady before it was too late for him to do so. "I sincerely apologize for my actions earlier. But please bear with me for I am just doing my job as the hotel's manager. And since you are really determined to get inside to prove your identity, this manager shall accompany you to the banquet hall." Due to the pressure, the manager had finally given up and granted Xing Yin entry to the hall. Xing Yin slightly smiled as she watched the manager approach the door of the banquet hall and held it open for her to enter. Just when she was about to enter, secretary Mo was about to get out. The two were then startled on the incident. "Miss Xing! What took you so long? Oh my! Please get inside quickly. CEO Xing had been waiting for you the entire time! Did you encounter a problem?" Secretary Mo said as she pulled Xing Yin inside the hall. The manager suddenly found it hard to breathe as his heart started to race. He couldn't believe what he just saw with his eyes and heard from the person who was about to step out the banquet hall. The woman whom he thought was a hooker, was in fact, the real heiress of Xing Airlines! His doubt on Xing Yin had completely faded and not even a small trace of it was left. But actually, that doubt didn't vanish it turned to worry and fear suddenly. What if the daughter of CEO Xing got back at him and reported him to the hotel administration? Oh no! He even dared to detain the heiress right? Sh*t! He even threatened her by having her arrested! What if the heiress sue him with oral defamation because he accused her of fraud? Thinking about the multitude of negative possibilities that can happen to him as well as definitely losing the job and career he worked hard for his 15 years of service to the hotel, the manager felt weak on the knees as little beads of sweat started to form on his forehead. Based on the amount of humiliation the young heiress went through a while ago, the manager was sure that even though he rendered a thousand full bows, they will never suffice. "Secretary Mo! I got stuck in a traffic jam caused by a vehicular accident." Xing Yin replied then turned her eyes to the now profusely sweating manager and said, "Good thing that this kind sir here accompanied me to this hall." The manager who felt his one foot was already inside his grave earlier suddenly felt relief. Thinking that his burden had already been lifted, the manager was able to smile a little. However, his smile instantly faded when Xing Yin spoke again. "Secretary Mo, please send a token of appreciation to this good manager. I OWE him this night." The way Xing Yin put emphasis on the word owe sent shivers down the manager's spine. Maybe it was his instinct but it seemed like the heiress meant it the other way around. It wasn't Xing Yin who was indebted to him. But it was him who became indebted to her when she did not tell her father's secretary the accusations he hurled against her earlier. "Thank you, Miss Xing. It's my responsibility as a manager to make sure that guests are well taken care of." The hotel of the manager forced himself to smile. "Let's not make your father wait any longer, Miss Xing. I promise we'll get back to this manager after the party." Secretary Mo said as she extended her arm, gesturing Xing Yin to walk further into the banquet hall.
