"Alright. I’ll ask my uncle again."

"Chen, if we can negotiate this price, I’ll give you an extra twenty bucks as a referral fee. Promise kept."

"Alright, thanks boss. I’ll try to persuade my uncle for you. Just wait for my news."

This wait stretched to half an hour, with no call from Chen, but instead a call from Wu Mengting, inviting him downstairs for dinner.

The five-star hotel obviously has its own restaurant, and the variety of dishes at this five-star place are quite tasty. These days, if they couldn’t catch dinner time, they’d eat at the hotel restaurant upon returning from their outings.

Even though Chen Feng was anxious about the other two oracle bones, he didn’t want to go hungry and agreed to be there in ten minutes.

After showering and changing clothes in ten minutes, Chen Feng still hadn’t received a call from Chen, so he temporarily put the matter aside.

By the time he arrived at the restaurant, the two women had already arrived and ordered a table full of dishes, but hadn’t started eating yet, clearly waiting for Chen Feng. It wasn’t because they were gluttonous, but Chen Feng’s appetite had greatly increased; the two of them combined would at most eat only a third, with the rest all being eaten by Chen Feng.

It was the same this time. Once Chen Feng sat down, the three started eating, with Chen Feng eating three bowls of rice and at least three-quarters of the dishes on the table.

After Chen Feng finished eating, Wu Mengting couldn’t help but exclaim, "Bro, why do I feel like you’re eating more and more?"

Sun Xiaorui also nodded, then looked Chen Feng up and down, laughing, "Though eating more, you don’t seem to be gaining weight, actually getting slimmer."

The speaker had no intent, but the listener took it to heart. Hearing Sun Xiaorui say "getting slimmer," Wu Mengting suddenly thought of Chen Feng’s cancer, feeling a pang in her heart and turning pale, instantly rendered speechless.

Chen Feng didn’t notice Wu Mengting’s thoughts and said with a smile, "I’ve been busy every day, consuming a lot of energy, so naturally I’m eating more. Don’t worry, once I’m not so busy, I won’t eat so much. I’ll gradually control my diet."

As he was saying this, the hotel’s female manager walked over, holding a bottle of wine in both hands.

"Mr. Chen, ladies, hello. This is a Cabernet Sauvignon from a private winery in France, cellared specifically for guests like you." Our hotel is thankful for the three of you staying these days, so we brought this for you to taste. It’s a complimentary gift from our hotel, please accept it graciously."

The female manager bowed slightly, wearing a humble expression.

"Thanks a lot."

Chen Feng didn’t decline, accepting it graciously. They had booked two luxurious suites here, staying for ten days, and the accommodation fees amounted to tens of thousands.

Chen Feng, as such a lavish guest, spending his own money, was quite rare.

"Shall I open it for you now?" the female manager asked politely.

Chen Feng looked towards the two women, saw they were silent, and nodded, saying, "Sure, please open it."

The female manager adeptly opened the bottle of red wine, poured it into a decanter, and smiled, saying, "Please enjoy."

After the female manager spoke and backed away to leave, Chen Feng suddenly sensed something and, quite mysteriously, told her, "Take the stairs instead of the elevator later."

The female manager was momentarily puzzled but professionally maintained a smile, nodding, "Alright, sir."

As the female manager left, Wu Mengting and Sun Xiaorui gave him strange looks, unsure why he would suddenly say this to the manager. If the manager wasn’t around her forties, slightly chubby, and not very attractive, they might have suspected Chen Feng was intentionally hitting on her.

"Don’t look at me like that. I just had a sudden intuition that she’d be unlucky if she took the elevator. So I kindly reminded her to use the stairs."

The two women exchanged glances, unsure what to say.

Meanwhile, after the female manager exited the restaurant, she initially planned to take the elevator to the lobby, but suddenly recalled Chen Feng’s words, opting to take the stairs. After all, it was going down, not up, and only two floors, not too exhausting.

Once she reached the first floor, she heard commotion near the elevators and frowned, going over.

She saw a hotel staff member lying on the ground in pain, surrounded by scattered dishes and a group of people, some hotel staff trying to carry him to the hospital.

Upon inquiry, she learned the staff member had just pushed a cart out of the elevator when suddenly the cart tipped over, crushing his foot.

The cart had quite a few things on it, not light, and the staff member was injured severely, possibly a fracture.

The female manager initially felt sympathy but quickly recalled Chen Feng’s warning, and her heart shuddered, her skin tingling.

Such a coincidence! So mysterious!

Had it not been for Chen Feng’s sudden warning, she would have instinctively taken the elevator, likely descending with the injured staff member and possibly getting her foot crushed too.

Only by taking Chen Feng’s advice and opting for the stairs did she avoid a hospital visit.

It was truly unfathomable!

Could he foresee the future or read fortunes?!

Driven by these thoughts, the female manager quickly returned to the staircase, her high heels clicking rapidly towards the restaurant.

Unfortunately, by the time she reached the restaurant, Chen Feng and the two women had already left.

She hesitated for a moment, then summoned courage to knock on Chen Feng’s room door, but received no response.

She speculated Chen Feng might be in the women’s room, but with them present, she wasn’t sure how to express gratitude or investigate further.

The hotel’s policies strictly forbade her from disturbing guests, especially ones as valuable as Chen Feng. A complaint could jeopardize her job.

After some hesitation, she decided not to press the women’s room bell and left, puzzled.

At that moment, Chen Feng indeed was in the women’s room. The three had finished the hotel’s wine, enjoyed its taste, and drank quickly, now feeling the effect. At least the two women felt it, their faces flushed, looking exceptionally beautiful.

"This hotel has a good touch, and the wine tastes nice. I found it quite pleasant, lacking the sourness of previously tasted wines and very smooth."

Wu Mengting said, sitting on a chair, sipping water.

Sun Xiaorui lay on the bed, slightly tipsy, saying, "Next time we should stay here again. Their food tastes good too."

Chen Feng gazed at her reclining curves appreciatively, about to speak when his phone rang.

The displayed number was the awaited call from Chen.
