The Kaiyue International Hotel was not considered particularly luxurious in Longdu, but because of its good location and the owner’s ability to handle affairs, business had always been good.
Of course, the people who could come here to spend were definitely not ordinary people.
This time, Lan Beier had booked the best Imperial Hall here. Five hours, and the room fee alone was five hundred thousand. That meant the Imperial Hall cost one hundred thousand per hour just for the room fee. This was only the room fee, not including drinks or food.
Such consumption was truly unaffordable for ordinary people.
But entering from the lobby, you would find that a high-end private room like the Imperial Hall was indeed classy. The spacious room was nearly one hundred and eighty square metres. The long Western-style dining table almost stretched across the entire room. It was magnificent inside, with brilliant lights. In one private room alone, there were more than a dozen fixed attendants on duty.
Lan Beier, arm in arm with Luo Chen, pushed open the door to the private room. Luo Chen raised his eyes and saw that there were more than thirty people inside at the moment, including Xu Shuiyao.
“They are all from the production crew.” Lan Beier spoke softly by Luo Chen’s ear, her breath like orchids.
And when those people saw who Lan Beier was arm in arm with, they immediately understood who it was.
“Hello, Mr Luo!” The production crew was very enthusiastic. With a rustle, they put down what they were holding, stood up, and greeted Luo Chen.
“Hello everyone, don’t stand on ceremony. Eat and drink as you please, have fun.” Luo Chen smiled. In a sense, these people were also his employees.
So Luo Chen also acted very approachable. After all, this was a celebration banquet, mainly for having a good time.
“Come, come, let’s all toast Mr Luo together!”
Just as these words fell, a person dressed as a supervisor pushed open the door to the private room.
“Um, everyone, sorry about this, but this room of yours was booked by someone else yesterday. Would you mind changing to another place?”
Booked by someone else, change places?
“That is not right. I booked this room three days in advance!” Lan Beier said doubtfully.
The Kaiyue International Hotel’s business was indeed very good, and sometimes it was truly not easy to book a private room.
But this Imperial Hall was different. Firstly, Lan Beier had booked it in advance. Secondly, ordinary people rarely booked this Imperial Hall.
After all, this Imperial Hall was somewhat not worth it. Generally, people who truly cared about face would not come to Kaiyue International, but would go to places like Yuewang Tower instead.
And people who did not care about face would even less likely book it, because the price was too high, not practical at all.
So, this Imperial Hall was actually somewhat of a white elephant for the entire Kaiyue International.
Therefore, Lan Beier was somewhat puzzled. How could someone be competing with her for this room?
“Everyone, I am truly sorry, but this room of yours was indeed booked by someone else.” The supervisor still insisted.
“Wait, you had better go and check. You have almost finished serving our dishes, and you are telling me now that someone booked it. Don’t you find that strange?”
“If someone really booked earlier than me, how would you have served our dishes?” A production crew staff member stood up and questioned.
“Everyone, I checked very clearly, this room was indeed…”
“Forget it, I won’t make things difficult for you either. I have already paid the deposit. If someone really booked earlier than me, how could you have accepted my deposit?”
“Go and get your manager to speak with me.” There was a hint of anger in Lan Beier’s voice.
After all, today was a celebration banquet. Everyone was here to have a good time. She had even fantasised about taking this opportunity to get Luo Chen drunk, so that she could… you know.
Now, someone suddenly came and said they should change places. Naturally, this made Lan Beier somewhat unhappy.
“It should be aimed at me. Sit down.” Luo Chen reached out and pulled Lan Beier to sit down.
Just at this moment, a person walked in from outside.
“No need to look for the manager, not even the owner. This Imperial Hall, I have booked it today!”
The head of the Li family, Li Tianyou!
“Quite lively here. Are you celebrating?” Li Tianyou said in a strange tone.
“Oh, isn’t this Mr Luo?” Li Tianyou suddenly put on an exaggeratedly surprised expression.
“Oh my, my apologies, my apologies. I didn’t expect Mr Luo, that you would actually be here today?”
But just as Li Tianyou finished speaking, another voice sounded from outside.
“Li Tianyou, what nonsense are you talking? How could Mr Luo, that number one person in Huaxia, come to a small place like Kaiyue International?”
“Can a place like this be worthy of his status?” Lan Feihu swaggered in, fiddling with the cultural walnut in his hand.
“Oh my, it really is Mr Luo!” A mocking smile appeared at the corner of Lan Feihu’s mouth.
“Whoever it is, one must still observe first come, first served, right?” The head of the Hong family also walked over.
“I think Mr Luo should not be as unreasonable as he was at the airport that day, right?” The head of the Hong family put on an appearance of great cultural depth, after all, he came from a scholarly family.
It was just that these words were deliberately mocking Luo Chen about the incident at the airport that day.
“Who was being unreasonable?”
“The ones being unreasonable were clearly you lot!” Lan Beier was somewhat angry and prepared to stand up again.
“I saw this Imperial Hall clearly that day, and asked about it clearly too!”
“Is that so?” A mocking smile flashed across the corner of Li Tianyou’s mouth.
“Come, Boss Zhang, tell us, what exactly is going on?” Li Tianyou shouted to a fat man behind him.
That fat man was fair and clean. Previously, he should have looked quite prosperous, but at this moment he appeared somewhat wretched.
He was the owner of this Kaiyue International Hotel.
“Miss, this Imperial Hall was indeed booked by someone else. As soon as you came in, you went straight inside. I thought you were together, otherwise how would I have let you in?”
“Did you hear that clearly?” Li Tianyou let out a cold laugh.
“No, I have the deposit receipt here. Can you deny that?” Lan Beier was truly angered this time. She had prepaid a deposit of nearly eight hundred thousand.
“Miss, with the number one person in Huaxia, Mr Luo, right here, would I dare to talk nonsense?” The owner of Kaiyue International, Boss Zhang, said with his head lowered.
“Beier, sit down.” Luo Chen gently pulled Lan Beier again. From beginning to end, Luo Chen was very calm.
Lan Beier sat down huffily.
“Ah, you lot, really, even this old man can’t stand watching anymore!” Another voice rang out.
An old man with long hair and a long beard walked in from outside. A Transformation Realm expert, ranked third on the Huaxia Tianlong List, Yu Xinghe!
“After all, Mr Luo is the number one person in Huaxia, someone standing at the pinnacle of Huaxia. How could you lot compete with Mr Luo for a private room like this?”
“You lot, you people are really not taking Mr Luo, this number one person in Huaxia, seriously at all, are you?” Yu Xinghe spoke coldly, especially biting down hard on the words “number one person in Huaxia”.
“Have you eaten leopard’s gall?”
“Why aren’t you apologising to Mr Luo?”
“Old Yu, your news is too outdated. Is he, Luo Wuji, still the number one person in Huaxia?”
