Chapter 142: Moving! Boshe Hotel!

Chapter 142: Chapter 142: Moving! Boshe Hotel!

Celestial Paradise Holiday Hotel.

After returning with a designated driver, Su Yunzhou rested for a moment and packed his personal belongings. He then began searching for nearby hotels.

He had to admit that the internet was a magical thing, allowing people to know everything in the world without stepping out of their homes. After Su Yunzhou inputted his requirements, a few options popped up on his phone screen.

The second one especially caught his eye. He took a liking to it at first glance—the Rongcheng Boshe Hotel.

The hotel was a twenty-minute drive from his current location. Although it was a bit further from Liu Yiyi’s home, it was much closer to the company where she worked. Besides, given their current Affinity, distance wouldn’t make the heart grow fonder—it wouldn’t do anything else for them.

After he made an online reservation, the account manager at the Boshe Hotel immediately called him. Upon understanding Mr. Su’s needs, she enthusiastically introduced their offerings.

"Mr. Su, our hotel has over a hundred guest rooms and thirty-six serviced apartments. If it is convenient for you, you can come to the hotel..."

Her pitch left Su Yunzhou somewhat tempted. A serviced apartment, which even included access to a private gym, an indoor heated swimming pool, the Mi Xun Spa, a mini-bar, and other amenities.

After agreeing to go over and take a look a bit later, Su Yunzhou called Jian Shan. Hearing the news that he was checking out, the other man rushed over in a flurry of anxiety.

On the road, Jian Shan felt a bit apprehensive and reluctant. After all, a client as excellent as Mr. Su was truly rare; he put on no airs and was extremely polite to everyone. Of course, the most important thing was that he had made quite a lot of money off him.

He wondered if Mr. Su had discovered something.

With a heart full of nervous anxiety, Jian Shan rang the doorbell.

"Come in."

Jian Shan took a deep breath, pulled out his room card, and entered.

Su Yunzhou’s expression was impassive as he pointed at his suitcase. "Help me take my things down, and then settle the bill."

"Understood!"

Jian Shan originally wanted to say something, but noticing the indifference in Mr. Su’s tone, he instantly clamped his mouth shut, only hoping to leave a good impression before the man departed.

At the front desk.

Jian Shan waited to the side, dragging the suitcase. Su Yunzhou checked the bill, only then realizing that he had unknowingly stayed for over a month. Food and drinks added together, he had spent a little over one hundred thousand yuan.

He hadn’t even finished spending the money he had deposited; he was still being too frugal. It didn’t fit the ultra-rich persona Tong had given him.

He’d just leave the remaining balance for meals! Eating at that Western restaurant occasionally was still quite nice.

After wrapping everything up, Su Yunzhou called for a designated driver. Then, under the reluctant gazes of Jian Shan and the front desk receptionist, he smoothly and stylishly left the hotel.

"Sigh." Jian Shan let out a heavy breath.

The receptionist asked, "Brother Shan, Mr. Su was staying here just fine. Why did he suddenly check out?"

Jian Shan knew the reason in his heart, but on the surface, he shook his head. "Rich people are all like this. Once they get tired of living in one place, they move on to the next. They just do it to experience the service."

"I’m so jealous! It would be great if I could spend a hundred grand a month on accommodation without batting an eye!" the receptionist had just finished speaking when another receptionist chimed in.

"I have a way for you to do that. Go out the door, turn right, and then take a left. There’s a lottery shop over there. Wasn’t there a beautiful girl who won ten million a while back and even live-streamed claiming the prize? I believe you are the next one."

Boshe Hotel.

Reservations Department.

A sweet-looking woman with a somewhat sharp and sassy voice asked curiously, "Bai Ying, why haven’t you gotten off work yet?"

"Sister Mei, I need to work a little longer. My sales performance this month is too poor!"

The woman was named Zhang Xiaomei. She was the department’s top salesperson and had excellent numbers every month. Her favorite thing to do was to feign concern while secretly making sarcastic, passive-aggressive remarks to her colleagues.

"Then you really need to step it up. I heard from upper management that starting this quarter, they are going to implement a ’last-place elimination’ system!"

Upon hearing this, Bai Ying’s face stiffened. Naturally, she had heard this news too. With her sales numbers at the bottom, if this was truly put into effect, she would definitely end up "Liangliang"—completely doomed.

In truth, she knew exactly why her performance was so poor. There were factors like the broader economic environment and the tourism off-season, but most importantly, it was because she refused to take "that step."

She had always firmly believed that relying on her professional abilities would surely yield good results, rather than having to sacrifice something in exchange for success.

"Sister Mei, I will work hard!"

Zhang Xiaomei smiled, swaying her well-rounded hips as she left the office to meet a client.

In her eyes, it wouldn’t be long before this self-proclaimed pure little woman would end up just like her, sinking into the ocean of worldly desires. Actually, she didn’t think there was anything wrong with that. Youth and beauty were inherently weapons to be used. Furthermore, deep down inside, she felt that since she had already stooped to such methods, shouldn’t everyone else do the same?

And the most satisfying part was that even if they did resort to those methods, their performance would still fall short of hers.

Hehehe.

Who could possibly understand this twisted sense of satisfaction!

Bai Ying sat at her cubicle, looking at the promotional brochure while analyzing the information the client had revealed over the phone earlier.

RING RING RING.

She picked up the phone swiftly at the very first ring.

"Mr. Su, you’ve arrived?

"Okay! I’ll be right down!"

She stood up, smoothed out the wrinkles in her tight pencil skirt in front of a mirror, and quickly hurried downstairs.

Su Yunzhou emerged from the open-air parking lot and walked toward the Boshe Hotel.

Despite being situated in a bustling downtown area, the place was exceptionally tranquil and understated. The hotel’s exterior walls incorporated an elegant bamboo design, with traditional architectural elements—such as blue bricks and flagstone pathways—showcased everywhere.

As Su Yunzhou stepped inside, walking along the flagstone path flanked by tasteful landscaping, he felt as if he had been transported to an ancient town.

"This design is quite interesting," Su Yunzhou praised inwardly, stepping into the lobby.

A woman in a fitted black uniform immediately approached him, her high heels going CLICK CLACK against the floor.

"Excuse me, are you Mr. Su Yunzhou?"

Su Yunzhou gave a slight nod. The woman before him had a lovely face, a graceful figure, and fair skin. Though not stunningly gorgeous, she was certainly very pleasing to the eye.

During their previous phone call, Bai Ying had guessed that the other party was young, but she hadn’t expected him to be quite this young.

She flashed a professional smile. "Mr. Su, my name is Bai Ying. Please come this way."

"Alright."

Su Yunzhou took a seat on the sofa. She promptly brought him some tea, then picked up an iPad and began her presentation. "Mr. Su, based on your requirements from our phone call, I’ve selected a few suitable room types for you. Please have a look."

Su Yunzhou took a sip of tea and casually swiped through the options a few times. Pointing to a picture labeled ’Luxury Serviced Apartment’, he asked, "Could you show me around this one?"

Joy bloomed in Bai Ying’s heart. She nodded. "Of course, Mr. Su. However, out of consideration for guest privacy, I can only take you to view the model room. But please rest assured, the layout is fundamentally identical."

Su Yunzhou gave a grunt of affirmation. He then stood up and followed Bai Ying’s lead further inside.

A moment later, the two arrived at an apartment roughly one hundred square meters in size.

The interior decor was elegant and refined, adopting a retro style. It came fully equipped with a living room and a kitchen. Outside, there was a spacious balcony featuring a suspended hanging chair.

The sight made Su Yunzhou’s eyes light up.

"A hanging chair!" he thought. "Hehe... perfect for... enjoying an enchanting evening..."

By comparison, the room at the Celestial Paradise Holiday Hotel felt like an ordinary residence, whereas this place was a fully-furnished luxury suite.

"Mr. Su, what do you think?" Bai Ying looked at Su Yunzhou expectantly.

Su Yunzhou nodded in satisfaction. "Let’s go with this one."

"Understood!" Bai Ying felt a surge of secret delight. "Mr. Su, this room type goes for 4,088 yuan a night, and it comes with complimentary access to the gym, swimming pool, Mi Xun Spa, and other facilities..."

Su Yunzhou spoke calmly, "Alright! Book it for a month to start."

"Hm? Ah?"

Bai Ying, who had still been introducing the room’s features, froze, a look of bewilderment washing over her face. She had assumed that by "long-term stay," he meant around a week. Who would have guessed he would book a whole month right off the bat?

She cautiously confirmed his request. Upon receiving a definitive answer, she was so thrilled she wanted to spin in circles.

"Mr. Su, if you are staying for a month, I can apply for a promotional discount for you. Calculated that way, it will come out to roughly 3,888 yuan a night."

Su Yunzhou looked at the woman who had voluntarily offered to help him apply for a discount, an amused glint appearing in his eyes.

"Alright!"

A moment later, Bai Ying put down her phone and said, "Mr. Su, the store manager has agreed. I’ll need to ask you to head downstairs with me to go through the check-in procedures."

Meanwhile, during the brief interval while Su Yunzhou was handling the paperwork, the Reservations Department’s night shift colleagues had collectively exploded into an uproar.

"Sister, what do we do? If Bai Ying signs this deal, I’ll be at the bottom of the rankings for the quarter!" a short-haired girl lamented dejectedly.

A girl next to her remarked sourly, "What can we do? Ugh! I just dropped from third from the bottom to second from the bottom!"

Zhang Xiaomei chuckled, an indescribable look in her eyes. "It seems Bai Ying has finally figured it out!"

No one replied. This was mainly because they didn’t know what she meant by "figuring it out."

However, a girl with thick black-framed glasses, who had a good relationship with Bai Ying, immediately sent her a message, giving her a real-time report on the situation.

Bai Ying found a spare moment to glance at her phone. With irrepressible joy in her eyes, she spoke respectfully to Su Yunzhou, who had just paid 120,000 yuan.

"Mr. Su, from this moment on, I am your dedicated customer service representative. If you have any needs at all, you can call me at any time to have them resolved!"

Su Yunzhou shifted his gaze, a teasing look on his face. "Are you sure you mean any needs?"

Hearing this, Bai Ying’s expression changed. Her fingers unconsciously gripped the hem of her shirt, and the joy on her face morphed into conflicted apprehension.

"Hahaha!" Seeing her reaction, Su Yunzhou smiled broadly. "I have some matters to attend to outside in a bit. Later, a Lala delivery driver will drop off a road bike. Just help me have it sent up to my room."

"Oh! Of course!" Bai Ying’s expression instantly relaxed.

She then led Su Yunzhou up to Room 708.

"Mr. Su, I’ll go back to work now!" After saying this, she gave a slight bow and took her leave.

Upon entering the elevator, she let out a long exhale.

Inwardly, she rejoiced. "This is great!" she thought. "With this order, even if they implement the elimination system, it won’t be me!"

"Hmph." She looked at the message her best friend had sent and let out a smug hum, imagining how, once she got back, those colleagues would definitely ask her where she found such a big client and tell her how lucky she was.

She had already planned out exactly how to respond.

Sure enough, when she returned to the office, everything played out just as she had expected.

Bai Ying gave her explanation with a beaming smile.

"Oh, I just got lucky. I’m still far behind you girls.

"I still need to work hard and learn from all of you."

A colleague teased, "Yingying, shouldn’t you show your appreciation now that you’ve closed a massive deal?"

Having prepared for this, Bai Ying pulled out her phone and said, "The client instructed me earlier to help him receive a bicycle, so I can’t leave right now. Because of that, I’ve ordered milk tea and snacks for everyone."

"Ooh!"

Everyone’s eyes lit up.

"Thanks, Yingying!"

"I definitely won’t hold back then!"

"Hehe, drinking milk tea in the afternoon is just perfect!"

Someone remarked sourly, "It isn’t from that particular brand, is it? There was news online about them recently..."

Before the sentence could even land, Bai Ying’s best friend in the thick black-framed glasses spoke up languidly. "If you aren’t drinking it, I’ll have two cups. Yingying ordered Nayuki’s new seasonal release, along with handmade desserts!"

The short-haired female colleague beside her gasped, "Wow, Nayuki’s new release!"

"Props to our generous Yingying! A huge like for you!"

"Hehehe."

In truth, Bai Ying felt a bit of a pinch in her wallet. A few cups of milk tea and some desserts had cost her over four hundred yuan. She was usually very frugal, but considering the snobbish tastes of these female colleagues, she had steeled herself to make the purchase.

After all, the commission on this lucky order was quite substantial.

Thank you, Mr. Su!

The target of her current gratitude, Su Yunzhou, took a lap around his new room before sitting on the soft sofa, pondering what kind of gift he should buy for Liu Yiyi.

That wristwatch from last time had earned him a massive profit. Although he had already rewarded her handsomely with cash, he still needed to show his appreciation.

But what exactly should he buy?

He couldn’t think of anything.

Since the commercial district was right downstairs, he decided to just go for a stroll first. He took the elevator down and exited the hotel.

After a short three-to-five-minute walk, he arrived at the Taikoo Li Commercial Center.

The crowd before him was bustling, the area lined with an endless array of high-end boutiques and teeming with foreign tourists. It was evidently a thriving hub of prosperity.

Su Yunzhou was just about to head toward the Rolex store up ahead when, suddenly, a beautiful figure appeared before his eyes.

"Hello there, handsome. I’m Tao!"

"A street challenge?"

"Do you want a hundred yuan, or do you want to experience a boy’s ultimate joy?"
