Chapter 131 Misunderstanding As soon as I walked to the entrance of Lan Kwai Fong, a doorman came out and asked me if I had an appointment and asked me to show my membership stumped me because I didn't have any membership and of course had no way to prove it. I had no choice but to say, "It's a reservation for a friend of mine. He hasn't come yet. Can I go in and wait for him first?" "Then please give your friend a call and we will check and arrange it for you." I dialed Chu Yucheng's number, but it showed that the number was busy. I called several times in a row, but no one answered. The doorman bowed to me and said apologetically, "Sorry, we are open for members only. You can wait for your friends to come, or you are welcome to come again next time." Actually, I can understand him. If I came here to cause trouble and he just put me in there, if something really happened, he would also need to take responsibility. I had no way to prove my identity, so it was reasonable for him to politely ask me to leave. However, as soon as he finished speaking, a young lady at the front desk came up and pushed the doorman behind her. "Sorry, the doorman is new here, so he doesn't know you. Please follow me..."
My parents were very surprised that a hotel receptionist knew me, and I was surprised too. But after thinking about it, the only possibility is that he saw me the last time Chu Yucheng and I came here together. The scene of the last time I came here came to my mind. At that time, I still had some grudges and...had evil intentions. I remembered the time when he was drunk and unconscious, and his warm breath when he fell on my shoulder. I remembered that I carried him downstairs, attracting a lot of people's attention, and I think the receptionist was among them. After all, it is hard not to be remembered if they just carry their boss and walk out in a swagger. I also remember the pose I made in his arms at that time for the photo. Later, he discovered it by watching the surveillance video. When I think about it now, my face still gets a little hot and my heart beats faster. "We haven't even met yet, are you so tempted?" Ou Bingjun's voice was somewhat teasing: "When he shows up in front of you, your heart will burst out of your chest!" I didn't want to pay attention to him and let him tease me. Soon after I sat down with my parents, a waiter brought us a platter of cold food and a menu. The menu only has samples of dishes but no prices, but you can tell from the gorgeous presentation that they are expensive. Seeing my parents struggling with their feelings, I simply took the menu and ordered all the rare things that I had tried last time and thought tasted good. My parents hesitated, "Isn't this a bit too much? Although we have paid off such a large sum of money and the burden has been lightened a lot, we still have to save some money to redeem the house we sold." "Just eat well and don't worry. If I can earn one million, I can earn another million. In the future, you can also enjoy a good life with me." I was quite complacent. "So girl, how did you make that one million?" Mom followed up on my question. My smile froze on my face. If I had known this would come up, I would not have said this. It is really irrelevant. The key is that I am the one who brought up this issue! What a rotten mouth!
"She helped me a lot. If it weren't for Senior Sister Su, my family would have lost more than a million." I heard Chu Yucheng's voice. He is here at last. The heart that I just raised was suddenly soothed. Chu Yucheng pushed the door open and came in, wearing a brown suit. He didn't comb his bangs up like he usually did when meeting clients, nor did he let his hair down like he usually did when attending classes at school. He had just trimmed his hair and looked very neat, giving off a mature and well-behaved vibe. "Hello uncle, hello auntie." After greeting my parents, he found a seat to sit down and went straight to the point, starting to talk about the origin of the one million. Chu Yucheng made up a short story, which roughly meant that there were rumors of ghosts and deaths in a shopping mall developed by his family. Thanks to me saving a person who wanted to jump off the building that day, no bad rumors spread. Out of gratitude, he paid me so much money. "Once the news that someone jumped off the building and died in my mall spreads, I'm afraid no one will dare to come to my mall anymore." I finally understand why he dresses like this. Because this look always gives people a very reliable feeling. In the eyes of elders, I am probably like a very capable and outstanding young man, for example, my parents. They were already eating and praising Chu Yucheng for being young, promising and mature, and even asked me to learn from him... Perhaps it was because the debt burden that had been weighing on their minds was finally lightened, or perhaps it was because they finally figured out where my money came from and were no longer worried. My parents were in high spirits tonight, chatting with Chu Yucheng and drinking some wine. "Uncle and aunt, there are rooms upstairs in Lan Kwai Fong. All toiletries are available. How about I show my hospitality and stay here today?" My parents readily agreed. After settling my parents, Chu Yucheng and I went downstairs, and the front desk clerk handed Chu Yucheng a bill. Chu Yucheng handed me the bill. The above records the expenses for tonight's meal. Thirty-four thousand in total. I gasped, "Why is it so expensive?" Chu Yucheng: "Because I opened a few bottles of decent wine." I felt bad: "Can you give me a discount and then...write me an IOU?" Chu Yucheng smiled and said, "Perhaps you can help me catch ghosts to pay off my debt. According to what we agreed before, one ghost costs eight thousand, plus the interest, so I'll count it as five ghosts for you." ...As expected of a capitalist. I nodded slowly, agreeing. "Words are not enough. Write a letter of guarantee." He motioned to the receptionist to bring paper and pen. I blurted out, "Wow! We've lived together for so long, and you don't believe me! You even want me to sign a guarantee?" Even though I did take advantage of him because of He Feifei's matter before, after all, we had lived together in empathy for more than two years. I didn't expect that he could say such cold and heartless words. As soon as I said it, I regretted it. The receptionist was standing not far from us, about to hand us a pen and paper.
I looked in that direction somewhat embarrassedly. The young lady suddenly became very busy. She first tidied her meticulous hair, then tidied her wrinkle-free clothes. Finally, there was nothing else to tidy up, so she began to look around with a wandering look and coughed from time to time in an attempt to cover up her mistake. It was obvious that she had heard what I had just said. I looked at Chu Yucheng's expression. I couldn't say he looked good, nor did I say he looked bad. He glared at me fiercely, but I didn't see much anger in him. It seemed more like he was reproaching me. He took a deep breath and explained to the receptionist who was busy with something, "It's not what you think." The young lady nodded frantically: "I know, I know." But it was obvious that he looked like, "Boss, I know everything, no need to explain." I quickly tried to make up for it: "No, I just meant... that we had a chance encounter. Two years is just... an adjective I used. In reality, it was less than two days..." The young lady looked at me sincerely and continued to nod: "Yeah, every day feels like a year. I understand, I understand." "Stop talking." Chu Yucheng looked at me speechlessly and said to the receptionist: "From now on, your salary will be increased by 200 yuan every month. Just report it to the finance department." The young lady smiled happily: "Boss, don't worry, I will keep this matter to myself and won't say a word to anyone!" After the young lady left, I was a little unconvinced: "You gave her money to shut her up, so isn't that admitting that it really happened?" "What else? Let you make things worse?" …Okay, he has a point. Chu Yucheng Scheming Boy: Actually, I know this employee is a big leaker. 200 yuan can't "shut" her up. I hope the receptionist can understand what I mean...
