Chapter 298: Chapter 292: Be Good, President Zhou, Don’t Listen—It’s Just Malicious Gossip

Zhou Jinyuan felt the other person’s odd glance, and his thin lips lightly pursed.

The cashier finally turned her gaze to Chen Xixi, smiling brightly as she spoke, "We don’t have a standard rate for just ten minutes of stay, and... our environment here is very good. If you stay for a day, you can not only rest but also enjoy the beautiful natural scenery which is much more comfortable than the city!

Then tomorrow morning, you can go up to the mountain top to watch the sunrise. Cui Feng Mountain is known for having the best sunrise view in Huaguo! Many tourists stay here just to conveniently catch the sunrise tomorrow!"

The cashier tried hard to promote the homestay, hoping they would stay.

Additionally, she wanted to figure out what was up with this stingy handsome guy. How could such a beautiful girl be so thoughtless?

Could it be just for his looks?

Today, Zhou Jinyuan was dressed in a black T-shirt and dark grey casual pants provided by the show crew, with white shoes on his feet. His unstyled short black hair naturally draped over his brows and eyes, adding a youthful rebelliousness compared to his usual formal attire.

Yet his prestigious and indifferent temperament was still present.

He didn’t look like a man without money at all.

But having money doesn’t necessarily equate to generosity.

To be honest, if one is a face-connoisseur, the handsome face of this guy in front could indeed make one forgive everything...

The cashier seemed to suddenly understand the beauty.

Chen Xixi wasn’t seriously here for a vacation, spending 238 yuan for a photo was too nonsensical, not something she would do.

But the request for a ten-minute room was rather ludicrous.

Chen Xixi’s eyes turned slightly, and she looked at the cashier with sparkling eyes, "Beautiful sister, can we take a look inside the homestay first?"

"Of course!"

The cashier picked up the walkie-talkie and called a staff member to take Chen Xixi and Zhou Jinyuan inside for a tour.

[Chen Xixi is too clever, right? Such a difficult task seems effortless for her to complete!]

[Search the website for the full picture, get into the homestay without spending money to take the photo, wow! This lady is really smart! An ordinary person would probably still be foolishly climbing around the mountain, tired to death, blindly searching.]

[Zheng He and the guests: To the person above, who are you targeting!]

Under the staff’s guidance, the two successfully entered the homestay to appreciate the environment.

Not sure how long they had been wandering around, when Chen Xixi saw an artificially formed mountain spring next to a cliff swing, she immediately took out her mobile phone, switched it to silent mode, pretended to play with the phone, and quickly took several photos.

Zhou Jinyuan’s task was completed!

Chen Xixi felt bad for letting the staff bustle about for nothing, so she took out a bottle of cola from her bag and handed it to them with a smile, "Thank you for your hard work."

The staff member was somewhat embarrassed by Chen Xixi’s enthusiasm, her face turned red as she quickly waved her hand to refuse, but couldn’t resist Chen Xixi’s excessive warmth.

Chen Xixi successfully placed the cola in the staff’s hand, and after walking a bit more, she smiled and said, "The scenery is indeed very nice, but can I consider it a bit more?"

There was more than one homestay in the mountains, and it was common for customers to be indecisive. The staff calmly accepted, "Sure, do you want to continue looking around?"

Chen Xixi smiled politely, "No need for now."

"Then I’ll take you out."

"No bother, we can find our own way out."

The staff patiently smiled, "It’s no trouble."

The three retraced their steps to go back.

As they passed by a cabin with an impressive exterior, Chen Xixi couldn’t help but turn around and walk over.

She leaned forward with her upper body and glanced through the large floor-to-ceiling windows into the cabin.

Earlier, when she looked at the room prices, she saw that the most expensive room was 1288 yuan.

Upon looking, a row of wooden cabins catches the eye, with the buildings on this side appearing the most Western and high-end, and with substantial size to boot. It seems these rooms must be the ones that go for a thousand a night.

As someone impoverished and unworldly, she was very curious about what sort of fancy rooms warranted a stay for over a thousand yuan.

Unfortunately, to protect the privacy of its guests, the homestay had applied anti-peeping film on all the floor-to-ceiling windows. Standing outside, she couldn’t see anything inside; it was pitch-black.

Seeing nothing, Chen Xixi was slightly disappointed and pursed her lips.

But at this moment, the person in the room was having a different experience.

Xu Nianying was gleefully holding a beauty in front of the floor-to-ceiling window.

When he inadvertently looked up and saw Chen Xixi’s face suddenly magnified in front of him, he damn nearly went limp in the eyes!

Then the next second...

"Fuck!"

The beauty, discontented, rubbed against Xu Nianying and moaned, "Are you too tired lately?"

Just started and it’s over, the beauty unsatisfied. She didn’t dare speak directly, fearing that the wealthy young master would be unhappy.

The fun being interrupted, Xu Nianying lost the mood to continue, scowled and casually pulled out several red bills from his wallet and tossed them to the beauty, "Get out."

The beauty took the money and immediately became joyous, clinging to Xu Nianying’s side with wide-open eyes and falsely flattering, "Okay, Young Master Xu is so mighty, make sure you call me next time～"

"..."

Xu Nianying wasn’t some greenhorn fresh out of the oven; this brainless flattery couldn’t excite him in the slightest.

He waved his hand, signaling her to leave impatiently. Then he dressed himself, lit a cigarette, and sat on the sofa with knitted brows.

Actually, the issue with the Chen Family could have been easily resolved, but Chen Xixi getting involved with Zhou Jinyuan made things complicated.

Now that the Chen Family had backing, the emboldened troublemakers were harder to handle, turning it into a big problem.

Especially Chen Xixi, just one glance at her and his head buzzed with pain.

He had no idea how this damned girl managed to hook up with Zhou Jinyuan!

He thought to come out for a bit of relaxation, but now suddenly he had no mood for it.

He glanced at Zhou Jinyuan, who was standing not far behind Chen Xixi, his frown deepening.

However, in the next instant, his brows quickly relaxed, and the corners of his lips slowly curled up.

Thanks to the thoughtful homework he did last time for Zhou Jinyuan’s mother, she must be more anxious than him right now.

So, the backing for the Chen Family shouldn’t last long, and the big problem should also be resolved soon.

...

Chen Xixi, who saw nothing outside the window, walked away.

As soon as she stepped back into the lobby, she vaguely heard the whispers of gossip.

"They booked a room for only ten minutes; that guy didn’t seem poor, probably has some personal issues."

"Ten minutes includes the time for taking off and putting on clothes! Oh my, are they charging by the second?"

"After what you’ve said, I’m dying of curiosity to see what he looks like, to make the girl put up with so much!"

As an adult, Chen Xixi’s face turned red and then pale, cycling between colors as she listened.

Subconsciously, she turned her head and saw Zhou Jinyuan with a dark complexion, and she seemed to feel an aura even darker than his face enveloping him.

Chen Xixi blinked, raised both hands to cover Zhou Jinyuan’s ears, and said with a tone like cajoling a child, "President Zhou, be good, we won’t listen to the malicious gossip."
