Chapter 2278: Chapter 2278: Custom-Made Lover (13)

Possibly bolstered by Chuzheng’s beauty, the hotel staff led the manager directly to Chuzheng’s room after two hours.

The manager looked somewhat fatigued but was surprised upon seeing Chuzheng.

The manager perked up a bit: "Hello, may I ask what you need from me?"

Chuzheng gestured for the manager to sit.

The young girl crossed her legs; though casual, her posture exuded a subtle sense of nobility.

The manager was indeed tired, wanting to rest, so he didn’t refuse.

Chuzheng: "I sent you an acquisition intent email, but you didn’t respond, so I had to come personally."

The manager uttered an ’ah’.

Their public email received many messages, most of them inexplicable.

Claims of intent to purchase via email... there were lots of those.

However, anyone with genuine intent wouldn’t merely mention it in an email; they’d contact them directly, so they generally ignored such emails.

The manager scrutinized the person opposite him again, though her presence was strong, she was alone...

"Miss, our hotel does not have any plans to sell, I’m afraid you will be disappointed."

"Money isn’t an issue."

"Miss, it’s not about the money. Our hotel has adequate funds and is operating well..."

The manager rambled on, and Chuzheng summarized: "So if your funds were inadequate and your operations were poor, you’d sell?"

The manager: "..."

Why did those words seem off?

"Miss, I sincerely apologize..."

"I’d like to speak with your boss."

"...Seeing the boss isn’t a matter of mere asking."

Perhaps her aura was overwhelming, the manager hesitated and asked Chuzheng to wait while he consulted.

By chance, Chuzheng visited today when their boss was present, agreeing to meet her.

The manager quickly arranged a meeting for the two.

"Manager, is she really going to buy the hotel?" The hotel staff moved closer as the manager left the room.

"How would I know?"

That young girl... did not look like an easy affair.

The words she said earlier were quite eerie!

The hotel staff looked starry-eyed: "She’s so pretty, wouldn’t it be great if she were our boss..."

"Beautiful, beautiful, all you think of is beauty." The manager scolded: "The more beautiful something is, the more dangerous; haven’t you heard this saying?"

"..."

He merely thought the young lady was pretty.

Who doesn’t like beauty?

The hotel staff didn’t dare talk back.

-

Chuzheng chatted with their boss about what, the manager didn’t know.

He only saw the boss’s face wasn’t good when entering; he seemed both angry and fearful.

The blond girl sat calmly across, leaning her chin on her hand, her gaze as still as death.

The atmosphere seemed... off!

What happened?

The manager gulped: "Manager Fan..."

Manager Fan’s face was ashen, gritting his teeth as he spat out a few words: "Call someone from the legal department here."

"...Alright."

Chuzheng had already prepared the contract, both in electronic and paper versions, ready for signing.

The manager saw their Manager Fan’s hand trembling as he signed.

"The item?"

"Once the handover is complete, it will naturally be given to Manager Fan."

"..." Fan glared at Chuzheng as if she wasn’t a fair-skinned young girl before him, but a terrifying demon.

He felt both hatred and fear.

The manager dared not breathe heavily.

What exactly happened in such a short time?

Ignoring Fan’s gaze, Chuzheng’s tone remained calm: "Pleasant cooperation, my team will handle the handover with you." Where to find my team... a bit worried.

Fan spoke darkly: "Young lady, it’s best to leave some room as a human."

Too bad, I’m not human.

Chuzheng slightly altered his words and returned them: "Manager Fan, having a bottom line is best as a human."

Fan: "..."

Why did he come here today!

How did that girl get those things... if leaked, he’d be finished.

"Manager Fan, goodbye."

Fan: "..."

He didn’t want to meet again.

As Chuzheng stepped out of the room, King’s Account popped up.

[Young lady...] King’s Account seemed weak: [Can’t you buy it normally? We have the money, throw enough at him until he sells, wouldn’t that be better?]

Spending money, isn’t it delightful?

Chuzheng: You mind how I buy it, isn’t purchasing it all that matters, so much fuss.

[Young lady, civility!]

Chuzheng: I didn’t say it out loud.

[...]

King’s Account collapsed into tears, sending Chuzheng a hidden mission.

[Hidden mission: Obtain one Fong Yan’s Good Person Card, prevent Fong Yan from becoming evil.]

[Young lady, please head to the hotel’s twelfth floor now.]

[Young lady, move it! Charge!] King’s Account suddenly got excited.

Only Good Person Card can cure her!

Chuzheng: "..."

She exhaled, seeing the hotel staff quickly move toward the manager, saying something that changed his expression. He left while making calls.

Chuzheng’s eyes narrowed slightly, checking the hotel surveillance as she proceeded to the twelfth floor.

The hotel’s staff seemed tense, checking the halls and various spots, unsure of what they were searching for.

Chuzheng quickly discovered what they were looking for.

Two employees were searching and talking; the sound reached Chuzheng.

"Could there really be a bomb?"

"No idea... shouldn’t we call the police? I’m scared, what if there’s actually a bomb."

"But they said not to call the police yet..."

"Why not call the police, if there’s truly a bomb, aren’t we doomed?"

"Which of those people who came today isn’t an influential figure? If not, our hotel’s reputation would be ruined."

"But we can’t joke about this many lives for the hotel’s reputation, now there are over a thousand guests here!"

The person seemed helpless: "Telling me won’t do anything; it’s not my decision..."

Bomb?

Who’s bold enough to place a bomb here?

Ding—

Chuzheng reached the twelfth floor.

The elevator doors opened, and chaotic noises filled the space.

Screams, shouts, and mediating voices mingled, almost shaking the ballroom.

Chuzheng saw Fong Yan in the crowd.

Fong Yan was restrained, his expression extremely grim.

A man was restrained opposite him too.

Clearly, the disturbance was caused by these two...

The Good Person Card was amazing, even leading to a fight.

Chuzheng’s thought had just passed when, out of the corner of her eye, she saw someone approaching amid the chaos, a glint of coldness flashing.

Chuzheng’s heart skipped, pushing through the crowd toward the inside.

"Fong Yan!"

Chuzheng called softly.

Fong Yan looked outside the crowd; the young girl was making her way through, her golden hair flowing behind her.

Fong Yan’s expression slightly changed, naturally calming and breaking free from those restraining him, discreetly adjusting his clothes.

Not wanting her to see him in a disheveled state.

...But why? Just a robot.

"Careful!"

Careful about what?

Fong Yan’s thought had just passed when suddenly someone bumped into him.

His body sensed danger instinctively, yet surrounded by people, no direction seemed like a good choice.

A cold item pressed against his waist.

’Buzz’ went through Fong Yan’s mind, but he swiftly calmed down again.
