Chapter 116: was too far away, and it was too expensive! 1
In a western restaurant three to four kilometers away. A man in a suit rubbed his hands excitedly. “How is it? When did Young Master Biao say he would be coming over?” The restaurant manager in a tuxedo said, “Young Master Biao can’t make it.” The man was completely stunned. “Why?” The restaurant manager said, “It’s too far away, and it’s too expensive!” The man’s expression cracked, indicating that he did not understand, “What’s so far? I told him to send Old Liu to pick him up, but he wasn’t willing. He said it was just a small distance away. Also, how is it expensive? He doesn’t have to pay for his meals! Did he forget that this restaurant also has his own shares?” The restaurant manager thought for a moment.”… He’s with his classmates. Maybe this is what his classmates think?” Young Master Biao was studying at Shengyang High School.
Although that school was a noble high school and the annual tuition fees added up to more than a hundred thousand yuan, it would specially recruit students from ordinary or even poor families. This group of students were smart and had top grades. Some were sponsored by the school-led foundation, and some relied on their smart minds to earn some scholarships to cover a large portion of the tuition fees. For example, Young Master Biao had been studying for so many years. Not only did he not spend a single cent, but he also earned quite a lot of money from the school every year. Since that student was able to participate in that competition with Young Master Biao, his grades must be impressive. There was a high probability that he was a specially recruited student. The man muttered, “I heard from the program team that there seems to be a philanthropist among the students participating in the Shengyang competition. His performance was very eye-catching…” He turned around and made a call. A moment later, he got the name of the philanthropist. “Chen Xiangxiang?”The man stared at the picture of the girl on the phone. He felt that her features were very familiar. The other party also praised Chen Xiangxiang very highly. “All her abilities are very balanced. She is steady and steady. She is also very eye-catching when she bursts out occasionally. After passing the level, she was neither arrogant nor impatient. She even kept comforting the contestants who failed.
It can be seen that her personality is very gentle, understanding, and generous.” The man thought for a long time and finally matched this face with the little girl in his memory. “It’s her!”He suddenly understood. No wonder his cousin refused to leave in north bridge city. It was for her, right? He could see that she was a very considerate girl. Even when her classmates treated her to a meal, she took into account her financial situation. She was not the kind of person who loved vanity. “Pass the message down. In the future, if this girl named Chen Xiangxiang comes to our company’s restaurant for a meal, the bill will be directly waived.” Since his cousin did not want to bring anyone over, then he would treat this little girl to a meal himself. Anyway, he had opened several famous restaurants and restaurants in Beiqiao City. He was not afraid that he would not have the opportunity to treat her. — The Western restaurant that the hotel brought was average. Of course, the price was also very close to the people. A meal for two people only cost over 300 yuan. Yan Xi didn’t have any objections this time, and asked Xie to pay the bill. After finishing the meal, she cleaned up and went to check out. The front desk smiled and said, “The two standard rooms cost 1,992 yuan for two days. Would you like to pay in cash or by card?” “Wait, this isn’t right, right?”Yan Xi was about to pay by card, but she paused when she heard that. “It should be 996 yuan.
The program team paid for one of the days.” She had just asked Zhao Qingxuan and the others. The program team had considered that the contestants were all students and did not plan to let the students pay for the room before reimbursing them, so they had specially sent the logistics staff to pay for the room today. The front desk was stunned. “But director Zhang of the program team said that the two rooms are on your own. Also… Director Zhang paid the room fee and wrote the invoice and left.” What she meant was that even if they wanted to look for her, they couldn’t find her. The receptionist remembered that director Zhang had said with a face full of mockery, “Isn’t she rich? Isn’t she arrogant? Then I’m sure she won’t care about this little bit of money, so I’ll let her pay for it herself!” The hotel didn’t really want to deal with this kind of thing. Director Zhang had dealt with them many times, and he wasn’t someone easy to deal with. The other party was unbridled, and he had made up his mind that the contestants would not dare to offend him. The receptionist looked at the little girl in front of her sympathetically. The other party was very beautiful, the kind of beauty that would make one’s eyes shine. Her clothes did not look ordinary either, so she probably would not care about this little bit of money. Just like manager Zhang had said, the little girl could only admit defeat in the end. Yan Xi also understood that it was useless to look for the receptionist. She smiled and said, “Then can I trouble miss to provide manager Zhang’s phone number?” The front desk felt her entire body go limp from the smile. She came back to her senses and nodded. “Sure.” It wasn’t a big deal, but she felt that manager Zhang might not pick up. Sure enough, Yan Xi made a few calls, but the other party didn’t pick up. Yan Xi sent a message instead. Similarly, the stone sank into the sea. Manager Zhang sat in the car. When he saw the message, he smiled smugly. He wanted to beg him at this time, but in his dreams. How could there be such a good thing in the world. Since the other party wanted to take advantage of him so righteously, he could only bear the consequences.
When he went to help the contestants check out of their rooms at noon, he was already very unhappy. It was a big weekend, and he still wanted to go home and sleep a little longer. Why should he care about such trivial matters. The hotel stipulated that the check-out time was twelve o’clock in the afternoon. Under special circumstances, he could apply for an extension until two o’clock in the afternoon. At half past one, he asked the contestants to knock on the door one by one to remind everyone to check out quickly. Otherwise, there would be an extra day’s fee. A female contestant ran over to him and told him that her sister was still sleeping. She asked him if he could be lenient and pay for an extra day’s room fee. She also emphasized that the other party was the champion of this preliminary competition and should be able to receive preferential treatment from the program team. She made it sound like she was taking advantage of him, but he wasn’t going to let it go. — After Yan XI made the call and sent the message, she didn’t expect the other party to really reply. Anyway, she had done enough, so she didn’t have to worry about anything else. Yan Xi immediately made a call. The other party picked up and said in an excited voice, “Miss…” “Uncle Wei, there’s a small matter that I need to trouble you with. Yes, it’s not a big matter. There’s no need to alarm anyone. It’s just a matter of you appearing…” On the other side, Chang Xie tapped his finger lightly and finally replied to a certain person who had been harassing him on wechat. “Since you’re so free, the program team won’t reimburse me for the room fees. Help me inform the program team…” When the program team’s producer received the call, he was completely dumbfounded. What happened! Why did the investors call to ask about the payment of the contestants’room fees! Not long after, the leader of the television station also called, the first thing he said was about the room fees. “Old Ling, how do you do this logistical work? Why Don’t you pay for the room fees of individual contestants? Aren’t you deliberately bullying the students?” The leader’s tone was neither fast nor slow, but the producer knew that the other party was angry.
He was instantly shocked and broke out in cold sweat. The producer did not dare to be careless and immediately contacted the director to confirm which two contestants were. After understanding what had happened, the director wiped his face, “Is this old Zhang’s brain damaged? These two contestants are the trump cards of our show. I was still counting on these two contestants for the show, but in the end, he played dirty tricks on me behind my back?”
