Chapter 068 The Sixty-Eighth Melon
Zhang Pingfeng comforted her bestie while giving Gu Xicao an embarrassed smile, "Ms. Gu, since we have figured it out, we will take our leave now and not disturb you any more."
She should take her bestie somewhere else to cry.
If you cry here, others might think something is wrong if they don't know.
Gu Xicao said gently, "No hurry, Miss Zhang, since you are here, do you plan to have your fortune told together?"
ah?
Zhang Pingfeng was stunned: "Me?"
Her mind worked quickly, and she realized that Gu Xicao might know something. Without saying anything, she took out the money and asked, "Is there something I can do for you?"
"Yes, and it would be best if you could contact your mother to come over here." Gu Xicao put his hands on the table and said seriously, "This matter is not only related to you, but also to your mother."
Huang Meigui raised her head from Zhang Pingfeng's shoulder, was stunned for a moment, and sniffed, "Master Gu, it won't be the same as mine and my mom's situation, right?"
"Not quite the same." Gu Xicao looked as if she wanted to say something but hesitated. She cleared her throat and said, "Anyway, it would be more convenient to ask your mom to come over. It would be best if it were right now."
If someone else said this, Zhang Pingfeng would just think that the other person was crazy.
Her mother is in charge of the management of several hotels. How could she have so much free time to meet people at any time?
But since Gu Xicao said so, she must have her reasons. After hesitating for a while, Zhang Pingfeng borrowed the phone and called Lan Yun.
"Excuse me, wait a minute, I have a call."
Lan Yun looked at the newcomer and waved her hand, "You go upstairs first, I'll be there later."
"Okay, Mr. Huang." The visitor considerately closed the door and left.
Lan Yun picked up the phone: "Hello?"
"Mommy, it's me." Zhang Pingfeng's voice was very sweet. "Are you free now?"
"What are you doing here? You have several meetings today. Where have you been?" Lan Yun recognized her daughter's voice at once. A smile and tenderness appeared on her usually serious face. She no longer had the aura of a female mall tyrant in her daily life.
Zhang Pingfeng said, "Rose and I came here to ask the master for fortune-telling. Mommy, can you spare some time to come over now? The master seems to have something to tell us."
When Zhang Pingfeng said this, she vaguely guessed that her mother would definitely not agree immediately.
As expected, Lan Yun's first reaction was to laugh out loud. She laughed so hard that she couldn't stand up. She sat on the desk with the microphone in her hand, "Ah Feng, what are you crazy about? It's too early for you to get involved in these superstitions at your age. Besides, no one in our family believes in this. I think you've been deceived. Go home quickly."
"Mommy, this time is really different." Zhang Pingfeng said coquettishly: "If you don't trust others, you should trust me. I never speak nonsense. You must come. This matter is..."
"It's about Miss Zhang's feelings." Gu Xicao said, "Didn't someone introduce Miss Zhang to a guy recently? That guy is not a good guy."
Lan Yun frowned slightly when she heard what Gu Xicao said. She asked Zhang Pingfeng, "Who is that person who is talking?"
"It's the Master, Mommy."
Zhang Pingfeng held the microphone and looked at Gu Xicao in surprise, then said into the microphone: "She said Huang Zhan is not a good person."
Lan Yun felt something was wrong. She hesitated for a moment and said, "Okay, I will rush over as soon as possible. Just promise me that you will never agree to anything from that master."
"I understand." Zhang Pingfeng also knew that Lan Yun was afraid that she would be deceived, but as long as the goal was achieved, why should she care about the process.
Huang Meigui and Zhang Pingfeng were both full of doubts, and from time to time they asked Huang Zhan what the problem was.
But Gu Xicao kept silent and just said, "You will know in a moment."
Lan Yun rushed to the Divine Calculation Office with a few assistants. Seeing such a large group of people coming in, Wang Laoshi, who was writing a novel, was startled and stood up to greet them: "Who are you here for--"
"I'm here to find my daughter, where is she?"
Lan Yun asked directly without any greetings.
In the office, Zhang Pingfeng heard the voice, hurriedly opened the door, and waved to Lan Yun: "Mommy, we are here!"
Lan Yun saw that her daughter was fine and didn't seem to have experienced anything bad. She felt relieved and made a gesture to the assistant before walking towards the office.
"You, you suddenly asked me to come over, which really scared me. What? Did you really ask me to come over because of fortune-telling?" Lan Yun poked her daughter's forehead with her finger.
Zhang Pingfeng covered her forehead and smiled: "Mom, there is really something wrong. The master said that you must come over before he will tell us what is going on."
master?
Lan Yun looked at Gu Xicao, "Are you the master who told me to come here? Now that I'm here, just tell me what you want to say."
The expression on her face is clear, she wants to see what you are up to.
As the general manager of several large hotels, Lan Yun has seen too many evil and low-class people.
She kept a respectful distance from these people, with a little contempt.
"I'm sure you won't believe me if I tell you this now."
Gu Xicao stood up and said, "Why don't we go and see it for ourselves?"
"What do you want to see?" Huang Meigui couldn't help but ask curiously, leaning her head over Zhang Pingfeng's shoulder.
Gu Xicao put on gloves, smiled, and said, "Let's go catch the adulterer. Do you want to go?"
Caught in adultery?!
Lan Yun and Zhang Pingfeng were both stunned, and Zhang Pingfeng's face turned pale: "The adulterer you're talking about, isn't it Huang Zhan?"
"I have met this young man Huang Zhan several times. He is young, well-educated, and comes from a good family. How could he do something to let Ah Feng down?" Lan Yun sneered, "I don't care who you are. If you want to scare people by being mysterious, then don't waste your time."
"Ms. Lan, I have already collected the money for your daughter's fortune-telling." Gu Xicao was not angry either. "I won't charge any more extra fees, but you, are you really not going with us? Isn't Huang Zhan going to be your daughter's fiancé soon?"
"Fiancé, Ah Feng, why don't I know about this?"
Yellow Rose covered her mouth in surprise and said.
Zhang Pingfeng whispered, "That person was introduced to me by Uncle Deng. We have known each other for less than two months. Of course, it is not appropriate to tell others before the matter is settled."
Uncle Deng?
Huang Meigui was stunned. Isn’t that Aunt Lan Yun’s current boyfriend?
"Okay, we'll go with you. I want to see what you're up to."
Lan Yun stared at Gu Xicao for a while, and finally relented.
She just happened to bring two cars with her friends, left a few people behind, and drove to the place Gu Xicao mentioned.
That place is not somewhere else.
It just happened to be the rival of Lan Yun’s hotel - the Whale Hotel.
As soon as they got off the car, the hotel front desk recognized Lan Yun and her daughter. After all, they were their enemies, so it was hard not to recognize them.
The front desk clerk called the manager without further ado.
Lan Yun frowned, and after entering the elevator, she said to Gu Xicao, "If you want to play a trick on us, it's not too late to quit now. Don't play any tricks."
"Mommy!" Zhang Pingfeng stamped her feet and said angrily, "You're going too far."
"It doesn't matter. Ms. Lan will know why I insisted on letting her come over later."
Gu Xicao said good-temperedly.
Lan Yun's eyes became more and more suspicious. When the elevator reached the 29th floor, they walked to Room 01 and stopped.
"The person is inside, ring the doorbell."
Gu Xicao motioned Wang Laoshi to go over.
Wang Laoshi obediently went over and rang the doorbell.
Huang Meigui was behind everyone and couldn't help but whisper, "This is the presidential suite. What if this person isn't the one we're looking for? That would be embarrassing."
As soon as she finished speaking, someone in the room asked loudly, "Who is it?"
As soon as that familiar voice came out, Lan Yun and Zhang Pingfeng's faces changed instantly.
Huang Meigui was stunned for a moment and asked in confusion: "Strange, this voice doesn't sound like that of a young person, could it be that we really went to the wrong place——"
Before she could finish her words, she saw Lan Yun, with a stern face, walking up in twelve-inch high heels and knocking on the door.
"Who is it?"
In the suite, Deng Qirong had just poured two glasses of red wine and was enjoying the aroma of the wine. When he heard a knock on the door outside, an unhappy look appeared on his face.
He tightened his bathrobe and thought to himself that he would definitely complain to the Whale Hotel for its poor management.
Someone knocked on the door of the presidential suite so rudely. If it was a hotel staff, I would complain to him!
Deng Qirong walked over and opened the door without thinking.
But when the door opened and he saw several people outside, he was so frightened that his face turned pale in an instant. He hurriedly stood at the door and smiled at Lan Yun outside, "Alan, why are you here?"
"Uncle Deng?!"
Yellow Rose exclaimed, covering her mouth with her hands, her eyes widened.
"What? We can't be here?"
Lan Yun's face was as black as the bottom of a pot, as if a storm was about to come.
She stared at Deng Qirong, "Didn't you say you were inspecting the hotel in Japan? How come you are here?!"
"I, I thought that the Whale Hotel is our mortal enemy. Knowing ourselves and the enemy will ensure victory in every battle, so I secretly came here to inspect."
Deng Qirong's palms were covered in cold sweat. He said loudly, "Alan, after coming here today, I realized that other people's hotels are not as good as ours. The supporting facilities here are really too poor."
"Boss Lan, Mr. Deng, what a coincidence."
Just as □□ finished saying this, Lan Yun's arch-enemy, the owner of the Whale Hotel, Hu Zhiyong, came over with a few people, smiling.
Hu Zhiyong raised his eyebrows when he heard this. "Mr. Deng, I don't agree with what you said. Although our Whale Hotel is not as big as your Blue Maple Hotel, it also has a good reputation, especially our presidential suite. Everyone who has been here says it's good."
Seeing Hu Zhiyong and others coming over, Deng Qirong's heart skipped a beat.
His scalp was tingling, and he couldn't understand why all these people gathered together today?
"We'll talk about this later, Lan. Wait for me to change my clothes, and then I'll go back with you."
As he spoke, he reached out to hold Lan Yun's hand.
Lan Yun shook off Deng Qirong's hand and pushed open the door. "It's just a change of clothes. Let's go in and wait. It's the same. You are hiding it like this. Maybe there is someone hiding in there."
She led the group directly into the presidential suite.
Deng Qirong couldn't stop them. He saw that not only Lan Yun and her group came in, but even Hu Zhiyong and others followed in. His head was buzzing.
But at this moment he had to pretend to be calm, "How could that be? Everyone can come in and sit down, there's nothing here."
His voice was so loud that it echoed throughout the entire suite.
Huang Meigui and others looked around the entire suite. The suite was very spacious, with a living room in the middle and bedrooms and study rooms on the left and right.
There was nothing to be seen in the living room. Lan Yun walked straight into the bedroom, and Zhang Pingfeng heard the sound of water splashing in the bathroom.
Zhang Pingfeng glanced at Deng Qirong and said with a half-smile: "Uncle Deng, why is there a sound of water in the bathroom? Aren't you outside?"
Deng Qirong's forehead was covered with sweat, and he smiled dryly: "I, I'm going to turn on the water and take a bath."
"Take a bath?" Lan Yun narrowed her eyes and looked at Deng Qirong. "You always take a shower, so when did you develop the habit of taking a bath?"
"It's a rare opportunity to come to the presidential suite. It's so expensive, of course you have to experience your return on investment." Deng Qirong said with a wry smile.
Lan Yun's smile disappeared completely. "You still want to lie to me? There are two wine glasses here. There is clearly another person in this room. Tell me, who is it?!"
Although Hu Zhiyong had already guessed it, he still showed a curious look after hearing what happened, and calmly signaled his men to wait and see the situation.
Deng Qirong was sweating profusely. "Alan, why do you think of me like this? I have been with you for so many years, but have I ever looked at other women? You are really disappointing me!"
Lan Yun's eyes wavered slightly, but Zhang Pingfeng was furious. She rushed to the bathroom and opened the door.
The sound of water vapor hit my face.
"Ah Feng!" Deng Qirong hurriedly chased after her, and the others also hurried to check what was going on, but there was no one in the bathroom.
The hot water in the bathtub is crystal clear, and there is no place to hide in the bathroom, so you can see everything.
A hint of surprise flashed across Deng Qirong's eyes. He caught a glimpse of the corner of a bathrobe outside the bathroom window and his heart skipped a beat.
Deng Qirong immediately walked to the front of the bathtub, revealing an angry face, "Ah Feng, Ah Lan, have you guys had enough of fooling around? Ah Lan, Ah Feng is young, so it's ok for them to fool around, but you are already this old, why are you still fooling around with children!"
"It's impossible, how could there be no one here?"
Zhang Pingfeng frowned, the suspicion on her face not fading at all.
It's not just about the wine glass. Deng Qirong's secretive attitude just now clearly shows that there is definitely someone hiding in the bathroom.
Zhang Pingfeng was about to ask about Gu Xicao, but when she looked up, she found that Gu Xicao was not there. She was stunned for a moment and asked, "Where is Master Gu?"
"I'm here. The balcony here is nice with a great view. I can even see a man's abdominal muscles." Gu Xicao whistled with a hint of sarcasm in her tone.
"nude?!"
Zhang Pingfeng reacted immediately, pushed Deng Qirong away, stepped over the bathtub, opened the curtains, and looked to the left. She saw a man standing on the edge of the window, holding on to it with both hands.
"Huang Zhan!!" Zhang Pingfeng lost her voice, "Why are you here?!"
"What?" Lan Yun hurried over and looked outside. The man who was smiling at them awkwardly was none other than Huang Zhan.
"Auntie, please let me in first."
The 29th floor was so high that Huang Zhan’s legs were trembling and his face was as pale as wax.
Lan Yun and her daughter looked unhappy, but they still made way for him to come in. Lan Yun gritted her teeth and said, "Go out and tell me, you must give me an explanation for what happened today!"
Deng Qirong and Huang Zhan hurriedly changed their clothes before returning to the living room.
"Alan, I, I made an appointment with Huang Zhan to come to the hotel." Deng Qirong stammered, and had to look up at Lan Yun's face several times after saying a word.
"Why are you going to the hotel to get a room?" Lan Yun's tone was very calm at this moment, but people who were familiar with her, such as Hu Zhiyong, knew that this meant that the lioness was very angry.
Huang Zhan said quickly: "Auntie, we didn't do anything else, it's just that my uncle asked me to come here to inspect the decoration of the hotel."
"You all seem willing to invest a lot. It would cost about two thousand yuan a night here, right, Boss Hu?" Lan Yun raised her eyebrows and looked at Hu Zhiyong.
Hu Zhiyong coughed and said, "Yes, our presidential suite is 2888 per night."
"Two thousand and eight, that's not a lot, but do you think we are fools?!"
Lan Yun was furious. She stood up and kicked the coffee table. "Two grown men, you checked into the presidential suite and drank red wine together. Do you two really think that the parts above our necks are pigs' heads?!"
Zhang Pingfeng opened her mouth, "Mommy, you mean they are, are——"
"It's glass." Hu Zhiyong kindly reminded.
Lan Yun glared at Hu Zhiyong. Hu Zhiyong coughed and turned his head away, but he just sat on the sofa with no intention of leaving.
"Nonsense, how could we be glass?!"
Deng Qirong suddenly became anxious. He rushed towards Lan Yun, knelt on the ground, and hugged Lan Yun's legs: "Alan, I have only loved you all this time. Don't believe what others say."
"Ah Feng, I like women, how can it be made of glass!"
Huang Zhan explained anxiously.
Hu Zhiyong sneered and crossed his arms, "Boss Lan, you and your daughter are not really stupid enough to believe it, right? I have never heard of two stinky men checking into a room together and drinking red wine. It's really romantic."
Lan Yun and Zhang Pingfeng's faces darkened.
Zhang Pingfeng gritted her teeth and looked at Gu Xicao: "Master, you want me to ask my mommy to come with you, is it because of this reason?"
"That's right." Gu Xicao nodded.
Zhang Pingfeng understood everything now. She looked at Deng Qirong and said, "Uncle Deng, you couldn't have been with Huang Zhan for a long time. You introduced me to Huang Zhan for some other purpose, right?"
Lan Yun also came back to her senses at this time.
yes.
It's fine if this pair of gay men are together, but what's the point of introducing Huang Zhan to her daughter?!
"No, no, we really have nothing to do with each other!"
Deng Qirong panicked and waved his hands quickly: "It's even more impossible that I have other intentions."
"So what you mean is that you introduced Huang Zhan to my daughter, and then got together with Huang Zhan?!"
Lan Yun went up and slapped Deng Qirong in the face: "I've spent a lot of money on you over the years, and you treat me like this!"
Deng Qirong was beaten, but he didn't dare to say anything. On the contrary, Huang Zhan felt distressed when he saw Deng Qirong being beaten. He rushed over to protect Deng Qirong and pushed Lan Yun away: "That's enough, you women, A Rong didn't do anything to let you down, and besides, you didn't suffer any loss, did you?"
Lan Yun and her daughter were speechless. They had seen shameless people before, but they had never seen anyone so shameless.
This pair of bastards deceived the mother and daughter into marriage, and they even had the nerve to say that they didn't suffer any loss!
It was fortunate that they realized something was wrong. If they hadn't realized that they were a pair of glass, they would have suffered in silence.
"Diu, I can't stand it anymore, beat these two glasses and throw them out!"
Hu Zhiyong was so disgusted that he asked the security guard to take the man away and teach him a lesson.
Deng Qirong and Huang Zhan's faces changed. Huang Zhan said sternly, "Why did you hit me? What does this have to do with you?"
Hu Zhiyong snorted, "I can't stand scum like you. I'm enforcing justice for the heavens! What are you still standing there for? Drag these two away!"
The security guards reacted and pulled the man out without saying a word.
Zhang Pingfeng hurried over to calm Lan Yun down, "Mommy, don't be angry. It's not worth it to get angry at these two scums and ruin your health."
"I'm not angry at myself, I'm just scared. I didn't expect Deng Qirong to be a glass and introduce him to you." Lan Yun got goose bumps when she said this: "Those glass guys are so messed up, I don't even know what disease they have. Ah Feng, are you okay?"
"Mommy, he and I haven't reached that level yet. But you, Uncle Deng..."
Zhang Pingfeng bit her lower lip, looking a little panicked and worried.
Gu Xicao said: "You don't have to worry about this. At present, they are not sick."
"For now, do you mean later?" Huang Meigui raised her eyebrows in surprise.
Gu Xicao said: "If they stop while they are ahead, then it's fine. But if they continue to mess around, it's hard to say."
"It's disgusting. These two people actually tricked us, mother and daughter!"
Lan Yun was getting angrier and angrier the more she thought about it. She pounded the table and said, "No, I can't swallow this. I must teach these two idiots a lesson!"
"Then count me in."
Hu Zhiyong stretched his suit.
"You?" Lan Yun looked at Hu Zhiyong with some suspicion.
People in the same industry are enemies. Lan Feng has been competing with Whale Hotel for so many years. Logically, it would be good of Hu Zhiyong not to add insult to injury at this time. Why would he help her?
"Boss Lan, don't get me wrong. I just can't stand those people being so mean." Hu Zhiyong waved his fat hands. "Our business grudges are business. I think everyone would be upset when encountering something like this."
Lan Yun looked at Hu Zhiyong with mixed feelings.
She had always thought that this fat guy was full of bad intentions, but she didn't expect that he actually had some human touch.
"Since you said so, I won't be polite. I want the entire industry to ban these two scumbags, and I hope that what happened today won't be spread out."
"That's easy." Hu Zhiyong said with a smile: "But, Boss Lan, I have a plan. Isn't your group planning to invest in Japan..."
No one expected that Lan Yun, who originally came to catch a cheating couple, ended up talking business with Hu Zhiyong.
Zhang Pingfeng was relieved. She was worried that her mother was feeling upset. When she saw that she was still in the mood to talk about business, she knew that the matter was over in her mind.
"Master Gu, thank you so much." When Zhang Pingfeng sent Gu Xicao back, she stuffed a specially prepared gift into Gu Xicao's hand without saying anything: "I originally wanted to help your business today, but I didn't expect that I still owe you a favor. We will definitely repay this favor."
When Gu Xicao was about to refuse, the car had already left.
She looked at the back of the car, shook her head and smiled.
