Yun Zijin had originally planned to just tag along for the ride, but after hearing Lu Yunque’s arrangements, she had a vague feeling that something wasn’t right.
Then, with a flash of insight, she finally posed the million-dollar question.
"The suite has more than one bedroom. I’d worry about you staying by yourself.
If you’re worried, you can lock your door from the inside. I won’t enter without your permission."
"You could put me in a room next to Zero One and the others. If something really happens, they can come over from next door to help me."
’Staying near Zero One and his team would be much safer than staying with Lu Yunque.’
But Yun Zijin couldn’t say that out loud.
After all, they were technically potential partners getting to know each other. She couldn’t come across as too cold-hearted.
"Miss Yun, it’s peak tourist season during the National Day holiday. Our hotel is already fully booked.
I’m very sorry, but we can’t accommodate your request to change rooms."
The hotel manager had noticed Lu Yunque’s special treatment of Yun Zijin from the moment they stepped into the hotel. Hearing now that Yun Zijin wanted to change rooms, he immediately stepped forward to smooth things over for Lu Yunque.
The general message was clear: it wasn’t that they wouldn’t make the arrangements, but that the current circumstances made it impossible.
He wasn’t exactly lying, though. The rooms at Jinsheng Hotel had, in fact, all been booked up.
Lu Yunque then turned to Yun Zijin. "He’s not lying. During the holidays, the Lu Family’s Jinsheng Hotel is almost always at full occupancy."
It wasn’t just because staying at Jinsheng Hotel was prestigious, but also because everything about it, from the ambiance to the service, was top-tier.
With both of them saying so, Yun Zijin felt a bit resigned.
A hotel being fully booked during the National Day holiday was, admittedly, a perfectly reasonable and valid excuse.
"Alright, then. Let’s go up and take a look first."
Jinsheng Hotel had no other rooms, and other hotels were most likely in the same boat. Yun Zijin had no choice but to compromise.
’But it was her own fault. She’d been too lazy to bother asking Lu Yunque about the accommodations, which led to this awkward situation.’
Since Yun Zijin didn’t press the issue, the hotel manager let out a huge sigh of relief.
’Thank goodness this Miss Yun wasn’t the unreasonable, pestering type. If she had made a scene, it would be us working folks who would suffer.’
Lu Yunque also breathed a sigh of relief. If Yun Zijin had refused to back down, he would have been the one to give in.
’He couldn’t just leave Yun Zijin with nowhere to stay, after all.’
The group stepped into the elevator. The hotel manager dutifully stood by the control panel and quickly pressed the button for the 81st floor.
The elevator doors closed, and a sweet, feminine voice rang out: "Elevator ascending. Approaching the 36th floor..."
The elevator ascended quickly, stopping on the 36th floor. A man and a woman stepped in from outside.
They both looked a bit surprised to see Yun Zijin’s party.
But people who could afford to stay at Jinsheng Hotel were not clueless paupers. Both parties maintained a tacit silence.
The man and woman got off on the 56th floor, and the elevator continued straight up to the 81st, arriving shortly after.
The group filed out of the elevator. The hotel manager led them to the suite’s entrance and used a master keycard to open the door for the couple.
"Why don’t you take them to their rooms?"
Before the hotel manager could follow them inside, Lu Yunque spoke up, telling him to take Zero One and his men to their rooms.
The hotel manager instantly understood Lu Yunque’s intention. He went along with the request and prepared to lead Zero One and the others to the rooms that had been arranged for them.
Zero One and his men didn’t follow, as their duty was to ensure Yun Zijin’s personal safety.
"It’s fine. Just leave one person here. I’ll let you know if I need anything."
’She didn’t want Zero One and his team to be unable to do anything just because of her.’
’It wasn’t like she needed someone guarding her every single moment.’
