The car didn't travel for long before arriving at its destination.
The hotel rented a three-story building from a government agency, and the exterior walls were painted in striking red and white.
Li Bin alone certainly wouldn't have that much power.
Gu Wei heard about it, so he found someone's brother-in-law and a successful person to partner with him.
With one person providing the money, another providing the connections, and yet another handling other aspects, the three quickly reached an agreement.
Gu Wei and Gu Hongjie left their things in the car untouched. Since Li Bin had just said he was also going back to the Forestry Bureau, they figured they could just give them a ride.
This was Gu Wei's first time here. He carefully observed the exterior and interior decorations and found that Li Bin and his group had some taste.
Looking at it from the perspective of decades later, it would certainly seem quite ordinary, but in the 1980s, it was fashionable enough.
Gu Hongjie's only time doing this was when the business opened. Now, after a period of operation, he has added many new and unfamiliar items.
When they went up to the third floor, they found several heavily made-up women sitting on a long sofa.
Some people, with cigarettes still dangling from their mouths, stood up in unison, shouting "Hello, boss!" and looking at Gu Wei with gleaming eyes.
Thinking this was a guest who had just arrived and was so handsome, some of the bolder ones had already started flirting and striking poses.
Gu Wei looked at the group of people. Although not all of them had thick, white faces covered in makeup, thin eyebrows, and bright red lips, and some women had less heavy makeup, everyone was wearing tight sweaters and leggings, which fully revealed their figures. He frowned in displeasure and said, "There doesn't seem to be anything interesting on the third floor. Let's go down."
Gu Hongjie also felt uncomfortable with the way these women were raising their eyebrows and winking at them, so he turned around and followed them without saying a word.
Li Bin was still holding onto the idea that he wouldn't give up until he got what he wanted, in case Gu Wei took a fancy to someone else, then he'd see if Gu Wei would still be so stubborn.
Seeing this, he had no choice but to follow behind and go downstairs.
However, as he was about to descend the steps, he turned back and waved to the woman inside who was wearing light makeup, indicating that they could talk about it later.
The woman could only nod obediently, then walked back to the sofa and sat down again.
The other women began to whisper among themselves:
"Who's that? He looks so handsome!"
"I didn't see the boss being followed around like a servant; he must be someone important."
"Hey, I thought I could choose one of us to accompany you."
"I also……"
"..."
The black sedan drove on the road covered with thick ice and snow, occasionally kicking up snowflakes that rustled against the windshield and the car body.
Zhou Kai, who was driving, and Gu Hongjie, who was sitting in the passenger seat, were chatting.
Gu Wei and Li Bin also chatted casually, but they tacitly avoided talking about sensitive topics.
After all, everyone has different ideas and beliefs, and everyone has their own path to walk.
