The happiest person was Xiao Song, whose customer rented a seven-seater van from him for 500 yuan a day. He said that it's the off-season now, and vans are rarely available for rent, so today was definitely his lucky day.
After that, three more groups of guests arrived at our guesthouse, and he picked them up from the airport with great enthusiasm. Two of the guests even rented two Smart cars from him, which made him very wealthy that day. So how could he lose out by cooperating with our guesthouse? After all, there is so much hidden value waiting for him to discover.
...
By evening, I had finally finished dealing with the affairs of the inn. Although it was only the first day, I felt like I couldn't breathe because I was so busy... I even missed the opening luncheon at noon because I was busy picking up guests.
I really wanted to lie in bed and sleep for a while, but then I remembered that Ye Zhi was still in the hospital, and that the box of fireworks was still under her bed, so I couldn't sit still. So I briefly explained things to Tie Nan and then drove to the hospital in Xiaguan.
On the way, I sent Ye Zhi a WeChat message. She told me not to worry and that her fever had subsided, but the doctor suggested that she stay in the hospital for another day of observation. I felt that was necessary because the nurses said that her high fever was not only due to catching a cold, but also related to long-term fatigue, which caused her to have a low level of immunity.
She really needs to rest, even if it's just staying in the hospital.
...
When I arrived at the hospital, she was sitting on the bed reviewing some documents. I peeled an apple and handed it to her, then said, "Which is more important, your health or your work? Can we rest for a while?"
"It'll be ready soon."
I glanced at her, then lay down and looked under the bed, but the box of fireworks was gone. I asked her again, "Where are my things?"
"The nurse took it away; she said flammable and explosive materials are not allowed in the hospital."
I immediately panicked and said, "Didn't you see it's wrapped in such a big box? It can't come into contact with a fire source, so how can it be flammable and explosive?"
That's what they say.
"Then you have to compensate me... I don't want money, I just want the exact same thing."
Ye Zhi smiled and then pointed to the locked cabinet and said to me, "Take the key and go inside that cabinet."
I unlocked the cabinet, and the box containing the fireworks was indeed there. I pointed at her and laughed, "You, Ye Zhi... You look so upright, I never thought you could lie like that!"
"I did this to protect your work, not to lie to you on purpose... Don't you think that only putting it in that locked box is absolutely safe?"
I praised, "Careful!"
Ye Zhi seemed to be in a good mood. After placing the folder in her hand on the bedside table, she took the initiative to ask me, "Have you eaten? If not, I'll treat you."
"It's not right for a patient to treat you to a meal. I'll treat you."
As I spoke, I took the box of fireworks out of the cabinet. Then Ye Zhi got off the bed and said to me, "I've been cooped up all day. After dinner, come with me for a walk around Erhai Lake."
I looked at her with some surprise. I always felt that she wasn't the type to be so proactive, but I couldn't quite put my finger on what her intentions were... Just as I was about to ask her another question, she had already put on her coat and walked out of the ward before I could.
I subconsciously looked out through the floor-to-ceiling window and saw only brilliant neon lights and twinkling stars, so it looked like a beautiful night.
So I didn't want to investigate or speculate about her anymore, and just treated it as a slightly more formal date between friends.
