"Huh? Dinner?"
This sudden change of topic caught him off guard, but it was best that he didn't get fired. The manager quickly agreed, "Okay, I'll have someone send it to you right away."
Before the phone was hung up, Qin Hezhou's cold voice came.
"Tell Qin Yu that if it happens again, he won't have to be called Qin anymore." After saying that, he looked at the cabinet of special props in the corner and added, "If you can't manage this hotel well, I can replace you."
"No, no, no! Mr. Qin, if you give me another chance, this kind of problem will never happen again! I promise!"
The manager was frightened, but fortunately Qin Hezhou didn't say anything more and hung up the phone directly.
He held his breath, not daring to relax, thinking that he would go and settle the score with that reckless bastard after delivering dinner to Mr. Qin. But who would have thought that the receptionist would come to him on his own initiative and even try to take credit for it.
"Have you got any brains? I was supposed to take care of this for Mr. Qin, removing everything before the inspection. And yet you took it straight to the big boss, offending both Mr. Qins! Don't you know they don't get along?!"
"I was just thinking about opening the best one for Mr. Qin, and I forgot that I had already..."
The front desk tried to explain but the manager didn't want to listen.
"Did Mr. Qin bring anyone with him when he came?"
The receptionist nodded, "Yes, he brought a woman and a dog."
"Okay, top-notch food and red wine, with some candles and stuff, go deliver it to Mr. Qin." The manager stroked his chin and sternly said to the receptionist, "If you mess up again, you'll be out right now!"
Mr. Qin had just returned to China and was already in the highest position in the group. He had never been interested in women, but he could bring a woman and a dog to the hotel, so their relationship must be unusual.
I shouldn't have listened to that nonsense from Mr. Qin in the first place. He thought he had real power when he had the position, but now it seems that he is just a small follower who depends on Qin Hezhou.
Alas, I can only hope that this meal will help the big shot calm down.
When Pei Zhiyu came out of the bathroom, the receptionist happened to knock on the door with a carefully prepared dinner.
When Qin Hezhou said he wanted to order food, she naturally thought it was takeout, but when she opened the door, she saw this exquisite candlelight dinner and expensive red wine.
Pei Zhiyu turned around to look at Qin Hezhou and asked in surprise: "You ordered it?!"
"...Yes, aren't you hungry?"
"But, how much did you spend on this?" Pei Zhiyu gritted his teeth.
She knew that he had some money left after selling his house, but he couldn't spend it so recklessly. She had just lost her job and her house had burned down, so she was already extremely short of money.
It will take a year to get that inheritance.
Now she was in a dilemma. Seeing Qin Hezhou being so extravagant, she felt angry but she couldn't slap him in the face in front of others.
Qin Hezhou sensed something was wrong. Why did this hotel always act on its own? It seemed like it was time for a change of personnel.
The woman at the front desk was extremely nervous. Noticing the aversion in the atmosphere, she immediately explained, "Ms. Qin ordered a standard set meal, but we're having a promotion, so we've upgraded it for free. If you're satisfied, just give us a good review."
"Uh..." That's ridiculous.
But the receptionist's determined look startled Pei Zhiyu. She took the cart and returned to her room, muttering to herself, "I'm really unlucky sometimes and lucky sometimes. They gave away such expensive red wine during an event. It must be worth tens of thousands..."
“The idea of the hotel is quite unique.”
"But how does she know your last name is Qin?" Pei Zhiyu changed the subject.
Qin Hezhou coughed lightly and changed the subject: "You have something to say to me tonight, right?"
Otherwise, I wouldn't have sent you a message saying I wanted to see him.
"Yes, I resigned." Pei Zhiyu confessed.
As she spoke, she began to transfer the steak and red wine to the table. Qin Hezhou came over to help.
He saw what Pei Zhiyu was thinking at a glance, "You want to start a business."
"How do you know?" she asked in surprise.
Qin Hezhou placed the knife and fork for her and calmly explained his reasoning, "You are not someone who will be bullied. You listened to what I said the other day."
She sat down at the dining table. The light in the room was no help, so she could only look at the other person in the ambiguous light.
"Didn't you say you believed me?"
"Yeah." Qin Hezhou nodded.
"Then I can't let you down," she said.
After he finished speaking, Pei Zhiyu's expression turned from joy to sorrow, not knowing what he was thinking about.
"Worried about funds?" Qin Hezhou gave her the cut steak.
Pei Zhiyu couldn't help but laugh, very calmly, "Yes. Although I have some savings, it's barely enough to make ends meet. If I want to start a business..."
He understood Pei Zhiyu's difficulties. He had asked someone to check before. Although her previous job as R&D director had a high annual salary, Ward never approved the funds, so she had to pay for the project all year round.
In addition, the Pei family did not treat her well, and her only grandfather passed away early, so she could not even think about receiving financial support from her family.
Thinking of this, Qin Hezhou suddenly had a question in his mind.
"Didn't your grandfather leave you anything before he passed away? Lin's shares are worth a lot of money." How could he let her live such a hard life?
Now that things have come to this, Pei Zhiyu doesn't intend to hide it from him.
"I married you just to inherit the inheritance."
"What's the meaning?"
"My grandfather's will said that to inherit the estate, I must have a stable marriage for at least one year," Pei Zhiyu explained.
So that's how it is, so I was anxious to get the certificate and sign the agreement.
No wonder she looked down on me back then, but now she is willing to live with him in the same house... It turns out that he is the bargaining chip for Pei Zhiyu to exchange for the inheritance.
Qin Hezhou leaned back in his chair, feeling inexplicably sad.
He even had a momentary impulse just now, wanting to confess the truth about his "bankruptcy". If she didn't have enough funds, he would provide her with them.
Looking at it now, it’s a bit stupid.
The heater is clearly not broken, so why is it so cold? Pei Zhiyu leaned against the head of the bed and lost in thought.
Just now, after hearing what she said, Qin Hezhou suddenly laughed and said something like "No wonder, no wonder". He didn't even eat and went into the bathroom.
It hasn’t come out yet.
Pei Zhiyu didn't understand what words irritated him. Was she marrying him for the inheritance?
But, they are a contractual couple, so is there any need to care about the purpose?
The sound of an incoming call interrupted her. Pei Zhiyu picked up the phone and thought it was Zhong Yue calling, but when she looked closely, she saw it was Fang Tuo.
——The lawyer who is responsible for handling inheritance-related matters.
