"Rest assured, Mr. Yan, when the new product is released, we'll definitely send some to you."

Miaoqiu smiled brightly.

"Great, if it works well, I'll help you promote it and maybe buy some more myself," Yan Xinrou said with a smile.

The effects of these new products are quite extraordinary, with a price to match. But gifting some to someone like Yan Xinrou, whose endorsement could elevate the product's value beyond its price, is invaluable.

It's very possible that a single word from Yan Xinrou could bring in an important client. If the client has a good experience, that means another big order.

Money breeds money; it's as simple as that.

After exchanging a few more pleasantries, Miaoqiu turned her gaze to Lin Tian, smiling, "Who are these ladies and gentlemen? I feel like they look somewhat familiar."

Every gesture she made was filled with a distinct charm that tugged at the heartstrings of men.

Truly a rare beauty.

Lin Tian sighed inwardly but dared not look too long, as his official girlfriend was next to him, equally stunning. Looking any more could only bring trouble upon himself.

"Oh, I forgot to introduce them. This is my daughter, Qingcheng, and her husband Lin Tian, who is also Bai Shishi's brother. You could say he's your boss," Yan Xinrou said with a smile.

The circle is inherently small since everyone is at the top of the pyramid. Bai Shishi used to only be the owner of Xianglong Tea House, but things are different now; her status and fame have quickly risen.

Yan Xinrou and Bai Shishi had interacted before, and they both had a good impression of each other, so further business cooperation was only natural.

"Lin Tian, this beautiful lady is Miaoqiu. She's the general manager of the Celestial Dragon Hotel, and she's the hotel's most valuable asset. Without her, the business wouldn't be what it is today," Yan Xinrou introduced to Lin Tian.

As Yan Xinrou said, the success of the Celestial Dragon Hotel owes a lot to Miaoqiu.

Whether it's beauty, figure, demeanor, wisdom, sweetness of voice, or communication skills, she is truly one-of-a-kind. With such a socially adept beauty, it's no wonder that business is booming.

"Lin Tian?" Miaoqiu's captivating eyes began to size up Lin Tian, looking very curious.

Liou Qingcheng merely frowned slightly at this. She didn't like other pretty women looking at her man like that. However, she said nothing and did nothing because she was confident this woman was no match for her.

This was confidence, and also pride.

"So you're Lin Tian. You're even more handsome than in the photos, no wonder I didn't recognize you right away." Miaoqiu covered her mouth and giggled.

She then extended her delicate hand, soft as lotus root, and said, "Hello, I'm Miaoqiu, the general manager of this hotel. If you need anything, just let me know."

Lin Tian shook her hand, noting its silky smoothness and moderate warmth, and after a slight touch, he promptly let go, asking curiously, "You know me?"

"Of course I do, you're now the fourth-largest shareholder of our group. I may not need to know others, but how could I not know you?" Miaoqiu said with a smile.

"Fourth-largest shareholder?" Lin Tian was completely puzzled, scratching his head. "Since when do I have shares?"

"I'm not too sure about the specifics; you could ask Mr. Bai. But all your expenses in our hotel are free of charge," Miaoqiu said.

"Free?" Lin Tian was stunned for a moment, then said, "No way! Tonight there's absolutely no free stuff. Charge the regular rate, or better yet… charge a bit more." Lin Tian said.

"Huh?"

This time it was Miaoqiu's turn to be speechless, "Why?"

She didn't understand, and probably no normal person would understand. Is this guy so rich he's burning money? Or just showing off to me?

"It's hard to explain, but tonight we're not footing the bill. Just remember to charge a bit more. Twenty percent extra should suffice," Lin Tian said.

"Alright." This time Miaoqiu didn't ask why, as she was already at a loss for words, and as a subordinate, she shouldn't question, only execute.

"Alright, this kid just likes to complicate things, Miaoqiu, don't mind us, go about your business," Liou said, feeling uncomfortable with such a beautiful woman nearby. Whether to look at her or not was a dilemma, and it wasn't even an option to send her away.

"Alright, if you need anything, just call me. Waiter, please take these honored guests to their room."

A waitress in a cheongsam walked over with small steps, looking very pretty. She gave Lin Tian and the others a professional smile and then led the way.

The reserved private room looked quite high-end, with two maids in European-style maid outfits already inside, who bowed as Lin Tian and the others entered.

The lavish decoration featured an aristocratic European style, with a large and magnificent chandelier spreading soft light across the room. The windows, made of some unknown material, reflected a warm orange light, accentuating the ornate carvings and exuding a sense of supreme luxury.

Behind the dining table hung a massive mural of a group of handsome men and beautiful women, although they were all foreigners, and Lin Tian didn't appreciate it much.

Suddenly, Lin Tian noticed a wine cart placed next to the dining table, carrying twelve bottles of world-renowned wines.

"Sir, would you like to open a bottle?" the maid asked in a European accent.

Lin Tian nodded enthusiastically, "Of course, which one is the most expensive?"

The maid seemed a bit taken aback. "Do you mean the best bottle?"

"No, isn't the most expensive the best?"

The maid was speechless. Who says the most expensive is always the best? The quality of wine cannot be judged by price alone; this is an industry consensus.

Looks like a country bumpkin.

The maid picked up a bottle and introduced it, "This one is a 23-year-old XO, priced at 138,000."

Nearly thirteen thousand per bottle was a sky-high price. It might not be this expensive elsewhere, but this was the Celestial Dragon Hotel. Besides, Lin Tian had asked Miaoqiu to mark up the room price by twenty percent earlier.

"Open it!" Lin Tian said without hesitation.

The maid didn't hesitate either, skillfully opening the bottle and pouring half a glass for each of the four.

Yan Xinrou swirled the wine in her stemmed glass, tasted a sip, and nodded, "Not bad."

Lin Tian also took a sip, finding it didn't taste particularly good. It was quite strong, better than beer. It would be even better with some skewers at this moment.

"Waiter, open all the remaining bottles for me to try," Yan Xinrou instructed.

"Huh?" The maid's eyes widened, and her mouth fell open.

All… all of them?
