Chapter 260 Friend Boy?
Wei Shihong was scolded by his nephew. Instead of getting angry, he humbly apologized: "I'm sorry, Chairman."
Then he pointed to the elderly and children: "They came from Chonglou to visit relatives. They lost their mobile phones and wallets. Now they are desperate. I want to help them and let them stay in the hotel temporarily."
"Help them? We are a hotel, not a charity! There is no charge for food and no charge for accommodation? The two of them are penniless, who will pay for it!"
What Wei Jiajun said immediately made the old man feel very embarrassed and ashamed.
The old man held the child's hand and was about to leave the hotel, but was stopped by Wei Shihong again.
"Wait a minute!"
Wei Shihong turned to Wei Jiajun and said: "Chairman, I will pay for all the expenses they spent in the hotel. I will never let the hotel lose a penny."
Wei Jiajun looked at Wei Shihong with disdainful eyes and said with a sneer: "I didn't see it, Manager Wei. It turns out that you still have a heart of Bodhisattva, but even if you are willing to help them pay for the hotel, our hotel will not accept beggars."
At this time, the dirty little boy suddenly spoke: "We are not beggars!"
The old man also said nervously: "We are really not beggars, we are farmers in Chonglou County, and our families are all farming."
"Farmers? What's the difference between them and beggars!" Wei Jiajun said disdainfully.
This sentence immediately aroused dissatisfaction from people around him, including the hotel's doormen and security guards, as well as waiters and cleaning staff.
Most of them are farmers, working in provincial cities and doing menial occupations, but they all feel that they are self-reliant and are not inferior to others.
After hearing what Wei Jiajun said, they all felt uncomfortable and panicked.
But Wei Jiajun is the chairman of the hotel, so they can only be angry and dare not say anything, pretending not to hear anything.
The old man said anxiously: "I have planted several acres of land at home and planted some fruit trees, so I can support myself.
I have never asked anyone for a penny before, but now we are really desperate, so we asked this gentleman to help us.
This gentleman is a good man. Chairman, please don’t embarrass him. We’ll leave right now. We’ll leave right away.”
Seeing the old man holding the child's hand and turning away, Wei Shihong felt very helpless and let out a long sigh.
After all, Wei Jiajun is the chairman, and he is just the lobby manager. He wants to help the elderly and children, but is unable to do anything.
Just when the old man and the child were about to walk out of the door, Lin Hao walked in from the outside and blocked their way.
Wei Zuer seemed unwilling to meet Wei Jiajun, so she stood behind the Roman columns outside the hotel and did not enter the hotel with Lin Hao.
"Old man, please wait a moment." Lin Hao stood in front of the old man and said with a smile.
"What's the matter with you?" The old man looked at this extraordinary young man doubtfully, not understanding what he was going to do.
Lin Hao said: "The hotel is open for business, so there is no reason not to receive customers! I will be responsible for your food and accommodation in this hotel until you contact your relatives."
He had witnessed the scene where Wei Shihong helped the old man and the child just now, and he felt deeply sympathetic to the suffering of the old man and the child.
After getting off the bus and walking outside the hotel, I heard what Wei Jiajun said to Wei Shihong again.
Even after Wei Shihong expressed his willingness to pay for the elderly and children's stay in the hotel, Wei Jiajun still insisted on kicking them out, which made Lin Hao angry.
However, the old man did not want to cause trouble to others because of himself. His wrinkled face showed an honest smile, looked at Lin Hao and said:
"Thank you young man, but we really don't need to stay in a hotel. We have been sleeping under the overpass for the past two days. Just under the overpass."
Lin Hao comforted him: "It's okay, old man. Just treat the money you spent in the hotel as something I borrowed from you, and you will pay it back to me after you find your relatives."
Although he said this, Lin Hao never thought about actually asking the old man to pay back the money.
He had the same idea as Wei Shihong, he just sincerely wanted to help the poor old people and children.
However, Lin Hao's actions aroused dissatisfaction from Wei Jiajun, because he had just made it clear that the hotel would not entertain this old man who looked like a beggar.
Lin Hao obviously heard what he said, but he deliberately opposed him and did not take him, the young master of the Wei family, seriously at all.
"I have already said that our hotel will not accept these two beggars, even if someone pays for them!" Wei Jiajun said unceremoniously.
Lin Hao's eyes instantly turned cold, giving people an indescribable sense of oppression.
He stared at Wei Jiajun coldly and said: "Are you unable to understand human language, or do you have a problem with your understanding? Others have already said that he is a farmer, not a beggar. Even if you are the young master of the Wei family, you are not necessarily nobler than a farmer.
Why do you look down on him?"
What Lin Hao said was so popular that the waiters and security guards around him couldn't help but praise him in their hearts.
It's just that because they are all employees of the hotel and they don't dare to offend the chairman, they don't dare to show it.
Wei Jiajun was not ashamed of what Lin Hao said, but was sure that Lin Hao had heard what they just said.
Otherwise, Lin Hao would not know that he was the young master of the Wei family, nor would he know that the old man was a farmer. Lin Hao was 100% deliberately going against him, so Wei Jiajun was even more angry.
"I don't care whether he is a farmer or a beggar, our hotel just won't entertain him!
I am the chairman of this hotel and I have the final say on everything here, what can you do?"
Wei Jiajun spoke in an extremely arrogant tone, with an attitude of not taking Lin Hao seriously at all, as if he might beat Lin Hao at any time.
At this moment, Wei Zuer, who had been watching outside for a long time and couldn't bear it anymore, walked in.
"Wei Jiajun, don't go too far? You are the chairman of the board, but you can't mess around in the hotel!"
Wei Jiajun suddenly smiled when he saw it was Wei Zuer.
"It turns out to be Zu'er. How could I be messing around? I'm doing this for the sake of the hotel. What if those two beggars stayed in our hotel and scared away other guests?"
"Strong words!" Wei Zuer immediately retorted.
Thinking that she had also encountered the same thing at Longjiang Longcheng Hotel, she felt the same for the elderly and children.
So she spoke very rudely to Wei Jiajun.
"You insulted the farmer uncle as a beggar and refused to let him stay in the hotel. If this matter spread, how much impact would it have on the hotel and how much impact would it have on the family's reputation?
If you don’t let them stay in the hotel today, then I will tell Grandpa and other elders in the family about this matter and let them comment!"
Wei Jiajun was speechless and said angrily: "I don't have the same experience as a woman like you!"
Then he walked out of the hotel directly, and the waiter opened the door of a blue sports car for him. He got in and drove away without looking back.
In fact, Wei Jiajun was not afraid that Wei Zuer would tell the elders in the family about this matter, because the elders in the family would definitely turn to him and would never speak for Wei Zuer.
She was just worried that Wei Zuer's unruly and willful temper would take advantage of the situation and use the power of the Internet to hype up the matter.
Maybe it will really affect the reputation of the hotel and the Wei family, and then I really won't be able to explain it to the elders of the family.
After Wei Jiajun left, Wei Zuer walked up to Wei Shihong and called out in a delicate voice: "Dad!"
Wei Shihong asked: "Where have you been these days? Why don't you answer your phone calls!"
Wei Zuer lied casually: "I went out to play for a few days and accidentally lost my phone."
Wei Shihong never thought that his daughter had lied to him. He just scolded him with concern and then turned his eyes to Lin Hao: "He is?"
Before Lin Hao opened his mouth, Wei Zuer answered first: "He is my friend. When I lost my cell phone and ran out of money, he was the one who sent me back."
