It’s been almost two years since Xia Yu came to Shanghai, but because he has no money, he has not yet experienced the real nightlife of Shanghai!
Today is a good opportunity. Tomorrow is Friday. If he skips the English practical writing test which can earn him full marks, he will have a day and a night.
As for whether skipping classes will deduct regular grades.
Tsk, he has been rushing to answer questions these past two weeks and has maxed out his regular scores!
After mentioning it in the dormitory group, Xia Yu went home, packed a set of clothes, and drove onto the highway into the city.
It happened to be the evening rush hour, so Xia Yu checked for hotels near Xintiandi while stuck in traffic.
In addition to the Jing'an Shangri-La Hotel where he stayed last time, Xia Yu saw a hotel called Langham.
Xia Yu doesn't know much about the hotel industry, but he knows a lot about food.
There is a Michelin three-star restaurant in Shanghai called Tang Court, and Tang Court is located inside this hotel.
Based on this point alone, Langting's status in Xia Yu's heart suddenly surpassed Xiangji.
Most people who love food are not bad people, and hotels that serve good food are definitely not bad.
Thinking of this, Xia Yu made a decision in his mind. After the traffic jam ended, he followed the navigation and drove towards Langting.
At around 6 o'clock, Xia Yu successfully arrived at the Langting underground parking lot.
Taking the elevator to the hotel front desk, Xia Yu took out his ID card.
"I'm sorry sir, we are now fully booked as you didn't make a reservation."
The front desk clerk said apologetically.
Located at the entrance of Xintiandi, the Langham's superior geographical location has attracted a constant stream of customers. Coupled with the addition of the Michelin three-star restaurant Tang Court, the Langham's rooms have always been in short supply. If you don't book in advance, it is easy to encounter a situation like today.
But who is Xia Yu? Now that he is here, how can he go out and find a new hotel?
"Full house? Your presidential suite is still empty, right?"
Xia Yu's unconventional response startled the receptionist, who then smiled brightly and said, "Sorry, sir, we are being rude. The presidential suite is indeed vacant. Would you like me to check you in?"
It is impossible to book a presidential suite in a five-star hotel through apps like Motuan.com or Moucheng.com. Even if you go to the hotel front desk, you won’t see any information about the presidential suite on the room rate list.
Only if you ask, the front desk will help you.
When Xia Yu stayed at Xiangji before, he had been complaining about not being able to stay in the presidential suite. Today, he was able to stay in the presidential suite at Langham because the ordinary rooms were full. It was no coincidence.
"Since you mentioned it, you must live here. Let's go through the formalities!"
Xia Yu threw his ID card and bank card on the stage and said in a calm tone.
"Mr. Xia, how many nights are you planning to stay?"
Holding Xia Yu's ID card in both hands, the receptionist took a look and changed the address.
"Stay for three nights first!"
There was nearly 300,000 yuan in the card, so Xia Yu was not worried at all. Besides, it was rare for him to go to the city, so he spent this weekend in the city.
"Okay, I'll do it for you right away!"
"Ding, your card with the last digit 0607 spent 207,000 yuan at 18:29 on March 27th, and the balance is 78,574.27 yuan. [Industrial and Commercial Bank of China]"
"Ding, respected host, your level has been successfully upgraded to Lv6!"
Two messages popped up on the phone in succession, one was a deduction message, and the other was an upgrade reminder. The upgrade task that Xia Yu had been unable to complete due to his usual low consumption was completed at once.
Xia Yu was surprised and also lamented the expensiveness of the presidential suite.
60,000 yuan a night, 5,000 yuan more expensive than the presidential suite at the Pudong Shangri-La next door.
In addition to this, a 15% service fee is required, which is 69,000 yuan. Booking for three nights will result in a total expenditure of 207,000 yuan on the card.
"Mr. Xia, this is your room card. We have someone to accompany you to your room. Please come this way!"
The person in charge refers to the management staff at the lobby manager level, but a low voice sounded from behind Xia Yu.
"Let me do it!"
Xia Yu turned around and saw a white old man wearing glasses. He looked quite kind and had an approachable feeling.
"Okay, Mr. Yi Siwen!"
The lobby manager on the side made way and said respectfully.
"Sir, I'm glad you chose the Langham Hotel. I'm the general manager, Yi Siwen!"
The old man stretched out his hand and said.
"Nice to meet you too, Mr. Isvin!"
Xia Yu stretched out his hand to shake it. He didn't expect that the person serving him would be replaced by the general manager from the lobby manager, and his B-character instantly became prominent.
"Choosing a Lange watch shows that you, Mr. Xia, are a person of great style. It is the pride of us Germans!"
Although he was holding it with his right hand, Yi Siwen lowered her eyes and saw the watch on Xia Yu's left hand.
"It turns out Mr. Isven is German."
Xia Yu nodded and did not continue the topic of watches.
Although he was happy to be complimented, this watch was opened from a gift package. His knowledge of Lange was limited to a certain encyclopedia. Wouldn't he be exposed if he talked too much about it?
"Yes, Mr. Xia, please go this way."
Seeing that Xia Yu didn't want to continue chatting, the old man tactfully raised his hand and invited him to leave.
"drop!"
When they arrived at another elevator, the old man used his card to open the elevator and let Xia Yu go in first.
This was not the same elevator that Xia Yu took from the basement. It was obviously the legendary VIP elevator. As he watched the ground slowly getting smaller, the elevator arrived at the top floor, the 28th floor, in the blink of an eye.
When the elevator door opened, I saw the presidential suite's exclusive butler was already waiting at the door.
"Hello, Mr. Xia, I am your personal butler, Ethan. Hello, Mr. Yi Siwen."
