Addendum
The push has a force of 0. Damage independent from the source (e.g. Imperial Artillery Targeteer's artillery strike) is considered to be from outside Lee's range even if the enemy who deals it is inside Lee's range, thus can be dodged by Honored Guest's Physical/Arts dodge.

Description

"Master Lee, take a look at these... Do you see anything?" Old Lee takes out a compass from the suitcase and carries it around the room three times forward and three in reverse. He gestures with one hand, muttering some incantation. "Your friend is right. That your business troubles are down to a problem with this house." "Just take a look at this room. There is no window in the east, so it lacks sunlight. The north side is suspended, making it difficult to accumulate wealth. The south faces another office building, which is an invitation of foes. But the worst thing is, there's a farmers' market to the west... Tch." "What's wrong with a farmers' market?" "It reeks of death." "Indeed, it all makes sense! You are a true master!" The client leans over to Lee and looks at the compass. The disk's surface is like a mirror, a frowning face reflected within it. "The qi of all things heaven and earth are not in alignment. When the qi is in harmony, auspice is invited. When the qi is in disharmony, evil is invited. That this house fails to be in alignment in every direction means it is a cursed house. Stay here for too long, and I'm afraid that business aside, the owner of this house will..." "Master, Master! You must help me!" "Don't panic. You are my very first client in Lungmen, and it appears that the two of us will share a bond. I'll send you an after-sale service today - if you move out within three days, I will find another place for you. I'll take care of this house for you." "Thank you so much, Master! Thank you!" "And that's how you rented this house for less than half its original price?" Later, when Lee told this story to the three youths at the dinner table, Hung clutched his belly in uproarious laughter, Aak was rolling on the floor, and Waai Fu was staring intently at the boss, as if at a swindler. "Can you really get Feng Shui from a compass?" Lee took a sip of tea and brought out the compass, the three kids gathering around him. Reflected on its surface are three curious noggins. "That guy opened a remodeling business, but all the buildings in the area were recently-built and newly furnished. Where was he going to get his business? I didn't swindle anyone."

Description

The heat is blazing, and it's mid-afternoon—the streets are deserted. Carrying a food box, Lee knocks on an unassuming ■-marked door at the Federation of Enterprises. "Can't you see yourself? Who acts so politely bringing someone their last meal? Hurry, get it in here." "Sorry to bother you. I'm delivering your food on Mr. Lin's behest." "...You? So you ARE doing his work?" Without answering, Lee takes out dishes from the box, one by one, laying them out at the man's table. "You remember our tastes pretty damn well." "Of course I do. Very peculiar tastes for Shangshuites, you boys. None of them except you like spice, and you all clamor for the regional dishes of home or nothing." Staring at the table devoid of a single chili, he sighs. "But they're all dead now." "I thought you'd avoid that topic." "I thought you'd know your hands aren't any cleaner." "A coup's a far cry from murder. You made the choice." "We're street thugs. By advising us to seize power, you gave me no other choice." Lee shakes his head, and brings out the final dish from the box. The man's eyes light up. "Oh, you had Shangshu mapo tofu too—wait, wait, I don't see any red on this plate at all. This is obviously some Lungmen cook's lousy take on it. Thanks, but no thanks." "I made it myself." The man skeptically picks up a piece of tofu with his chopsticks, places it in his mouth, and rolls it around. The spice promptly launches him into a coughing fit. "*hack*, *hack*... Masterfully done, Mr. Lee. I admit defeat." "There's always a way to feed someone spice without showing it." "Of course, of course. You replaced me without lifting a finger, now you're the one arm-wrestling that old rat. Trust you to have a plan for every occasion, Sir Lee. May your future always glitter gold." "Forget about gold, I just want to have a peaceful day or two here in Lungmen, that's all." "You think I'd believe that?" "You were doubtful of me from the get-go, but you still did what I said in the end—because you know that everything I say is actually true." "...You read me that far, just to make your own life easier?" "Not just my own." "Catching me means you're the lou syu's beloved guest from now on, Mr. Outsider. You can have your quiet days if you want. But 'not just my own'? What's that about?" "After you fall, there won't be an underworld setting Lungmen's tune anymore. Mr. Lin says he has a plan to get the rest of the troublemakers to back down from a full-blown riot, and I trust him." The man spends a long while reeling, and after that, picks up his chopsticks. "Go on and leave, sir. Your heart lies elsewhere—even less reason to get your hands dirty." "One last thing." Lee flicks something out of his pocket. It lands in the man's lap. "What is this?" "Car keys. If you really want to do something good, get in the car. That's the thing about cars—once you're in one, you just naturally know where to go... ...Now, don't go wasting any more good meals."
