"Okay, that's enough." Shi Jiu put away the 500 crystal cores. Her wallet was now much fatter, but it would be better if the punishment was less. She didn't want her hotel to get into any trouble.
"Come over here and talk." Shi Jiu pointed to the rest area nearby, wondering, wouldn't it be better to just handle long-term activities at the counter? Is there anything I need to ask her?
It was not until they sat down to talk that Shi Jiu realized that he had set his sights on other things.
"Hello, Boss. My name is Yan Yue. My father is the head of the Anhe base. Perhaps we could collaborate. The base could take over your long-term activities. Boss, you can bring out all the space bracelets. We'll exchange the crystal core for the goods."
Yan Yue had just failed to attract the boss with his appearance, and he felt a little unhappy. Now that he had revealed his identity, he had taken care of the entire event. He was secretly proud of himself, thinking that he should be able to win over the boss.
Just when he thought everything was foolproof this time, Shi Jiu shook his head.
"That promotion is long-term and won't be withdrawn." Shi Jiu didn't agree to his request. Even though he was well-connected, the promotion was meant to attract customers. What was the point of booking it? She wasn't just trying to make a few crystal cores.
"Don't you just want crystal cores? We can provide them to you. Besides, your hotel is so remote, not many people come here. You might as well cooperate with us. You will definitely get the benefits."
When Yan Yue heard Shi Jiu reject his suggestion, his tone became much heavier. As he said this, his originally handsome face instantly became mean in her eyes, and even the gentleness between his eyebrows turned into a subtle mockery.
"Really? But I don't need it. If you can collect all the crystal cores in the end of the world and trade them with me, I will cooperate with you without saying anything. Can you do that?" Shi Jiu leaned her arms on the armrest of the sofa, stretched out her right hand and looked at her hand. She was not angry at Yan Yue's words that looked down on the hotel, but she was not so good-tempered.
"So, there's nothing to talk about?" Yan Yue put away his smile. He thought Shi Jiu was trying to trick him into collecting the crystal cores from the entire world. That was not the way to joke. "Boss, this opportunity doesn't come around often."
"If you want to participate in the event, go to the front desk and find my staff. If there is nothing else, I'll go back first." She thought there would be some big orders today, but what a pity.
"Xiao Qin, come and greet the guests. I'm going back to rest." She had no desire to continue talking to Yan Yue. She stood up and called Qin Lou over. She put on the airs of a boss and didn't even glance at Yan Yue. She closed the door and blocked everyone's sight.
Qin Lou didn't react to Shi Jiu calling him Xiao Qin. He came to the rest area and asked them directly, "Excuse me, guests, is there anything else you need?"
What else do we need? Didn’t you hear it just now? Except for Yan Yue, the other three thought resentfully in their hearts. Yan Yue sat in his original position, looking at the closed door, with no expression on his face, but the irregular tapping of his fingers revealed his restless heart. After a long time, he spoke.
"No more, let's go!" After saying that, he quickly stood up and walked towards the door.
Just as they were about to leave, the door of the next room opened, and it was Jiang Xiao who had fainted twice last night.
After getting up this morning, she planned to go to the restaurant to have a meal and then see if there was any possibility of upgrading her superpowers. The two fainting episodes last night made her worried about her personal safety, and she had not yet mastered the switch of her superpowers, which was too unsafe.
She went out to find her teammates to have dinner together, and she would feel more at ease with one more person watching her. When she looked up, she saw Yan Yue and his gang were about to leave.
When Yan Yue saw Jiang Xiao, he thought of how Shi Jiu had just ignored his charm and wanted to regain his confidence in this girl. Moreover, this girl was also very good, with a well-proportioned figure, shoulder-length hair, a quiet and easy-going temperament, and she looked like a beautiful girl next door but also revealed a tough temperament.
His mood brightened immediately, and he approached Jiang Xiao in a familiar manner, "Hello, are you also a guest of this hotel?"
Jiang Xiao was a little dazed. When she heard Yan Yue's conversation unfold, she didn't want to respond to him. "I'm sorry, I have to go to the restaurant to eat now. I don't have time to chat with you." She originally wanted to knock on Zhao Jin's door, but now it was not appropriate to stay at the door.
She hurried towards the restaurant. Yan Yue didn't expect that he couldn't even successfully strike up a conversation with a girl. Did this hotel block his charm?
"Hey! Wait a minute!" Yan Yue was furious. Normally, in Anhe Base, no one would ignore his existence like this. "Let's go to the restaurant and take a look!"
He suddenly changed his mind and decided to go to the restaurant first to check out the hotel. The three people following him looked at each other and had no choice but to follow him.
After returning to the room, Shi Jiu threw herself directly onto the bed, hoping to get some more sleep within the limited time. However, her mind had already been awakened by the conversation just now, so she had no choice but to get up.
"Forget it, just think of it as going to work early!" After she tidied herself, she picked up the tablet to see what happened today.
"The featured products have been updated!" Shi Jiu remembered the new benefits that came out yesterday, and clicked in to see what can be purchased today.
At a glance, it was the same configuration as yesterday, with three new items and three coupons.
"Clock... this one is quite useful. I can hang it on my back. It's only 2 crystal cores. Buy it!"
"Seven-Colored Flower Seeds with a planting area and tools?" Shi Jiu looked at the item in surprise. How come they were just mentioned yesterday, and now they're available today? Is there surveillance?
She thought for a while and thought it was probably just a coincidence. It was only 5 crystal cores. She had agreed to give Qin Lou a welcome yesterday, so this was it!
"What else is there... a purification tree? What is this?" Shi Jiu slid to the last product, which showed: if planted on the land, it can purify 5 square meters of land. The purification effect will only be seen when planted for the first time, and the purification time is one day. When planted for the second time, it will become an ordinary ornamental tree.
Does the hotel need purification as well? Or is this for the apocalypse?
Shi Jiu was thinking vaguely, generally the products released by the system are first used in the hotel, they are not likely to be used directly to purify the land in the end times, and there is only one tree, it doesn't seem to be of much use?
Never mind, I'll buy it first. When I saw the price, it's only 1 crystal core. I would be sorry if I don't take advantage of this bargain!
Shi Jiu bought all six items above, took out the clock, walked out of the room, and planned to hang it on the wall for Qin Lou so that he would have a reference for time.
"Xiao... ahem, Qin Lou, hang this clock next to the blackboard so you can have a reference for the time." Shi Jiu handed the square electronic clock in her hand to him and almost slipped up and said Xiao Qin again. Just now, in order to suppress the arrogance of that guy Yan Yue, she put on the aura of a boss, and now she felt a little guilty when she thought about it.
"Okay." Qin Lou didn't say anything. He took the electronic clock and used his height advantage to hang it up. It was not too late now. It was not even nine o'clock.
"Have you had breakfast?" As a boss, she should care about her subordinates, so she asked casually. She planned to have breakfast later and was a little hungry.
"Not yet. Boss, if you want to have breakfast, I'll get it for you. The group of people just now haven't left yet. They went to the restaurant to eat." Qin Lou reminded her.
"So strong?" Shi Jiu was surprised. Just before she returned to her room, she had clearly seen Yan Yue's expression froze, and now he could go to dinner without any grudges? Was there some conspiracy behind this?
Please forgive her for feeling uncomfortable when she first met Yan Yue. Unlike her usual social anxiety, he looked handsome, but the more she talked to him, the more uncomfortable she felt, so she ended the topic so early.
On the one hand, the other party really does not have the ability to take care of the entire activity. What she said just now was not entirely a joke. If it were possible, she would definitely agree without hesitation, and the task could be completed early. Why would she need to be here?
On the other hand, her intuition told her that this person would make her very uncomfortable. Why should she continue to do something that would make her uncomfortable? He was not someone who could strangle her life.
"When he was about to leave, he happened to meet a female guest coming out, and then he tried hard to strike up a conversation with her. The guest didn't want to chat with him, so she said she was going to the restaurant to eat. As a result, he changed his mind and went to the restaurant to eat as well. Now he has been in there for about ten minutes." Qin Lou recounted what had just happened.
When Shi Jiu heard that he was going to a restaurant to eat, she had a bad feeling in her heart. They were all people with special abilities and would be able to sense something was wrong as soon as they ate. If she didn't catch him later, she would say she wanted to cooperate or something.
When she thought about how Yan Yue looked gentle but was actually a conceited guy, she was afraid that he would come to her and say some arrogant words again, and she would not be able to help but beat him to death. It was better to stay away from him.
"Qin Lou, if that guy comes out and asks to see me again, just refuse him. I don't want to see him for the time being." Shi Jiu thought about the situation and decided to avoid it first. "When he leaves, come find me again!"
"By the way, calling you Xiao Qin just now was really unintentional!" Shi Jiu explained the situation just now. The other person looked older than her, so it was better not to call him that.
"It's okay, boss. If necessary in certain circumstances, you can still call me that." Qin Lou didn't mind the title. From another perspective, it was... pretty good.
"Is that so? Okay, thank you!" She didn't insist any further. It was nice to be called that. She really got a taste of being a boss just now!
"Since you support me as a boss so much, I will give you a surprise after that guy leaves!" Shi Jiu thought. She didn't expect that she could fulfill her promise so soon.
The author has something to say:
I ate so much last night that I stayed up a bit, and ended up having a headache this morning. But the novel is so good. When will I be able to have free time to write novels?
