Chapter 531: Don't Help

I don't know how I fell asleep. When I woke up, it was already the next morning. I was sleeping on a big, soft bed.

I didn’t drink much wine last night, and all I drank was red wine, so I didn’t feel any discomfort when I woke up.

I looked around the room, but there was no one there.

I picked up my phone and checked the time. It was already past nine in the morning, so I got out of bed and found the bathroom.

The decoration here is so good, even the bathroom looks so luxurious, I even studied the shower system for a while before draining the water.

After a comfortable hot bath, I just dried myself and came out wrapped in a bath towel when I found Huang Li standing outside.

Fortunately, I was wrapped in a bath towel. Fortunately, I didn't come out naked like this.

Huang Li naturally acted as if nothing was wrong, looked at me and said, "Are you awake? Put on your clothes and have breakfast."

"When did you come? I didn't see you there just now." I said with some fear.

"What are you afraid of? Aren't you still wearing a bath towel?"

"Then if I come out without a bath towel, wouldn't it be embarrassing?"

Huang Li snorted again: "What's the matter? If I look at you as a man, will you suffer a loss?"

There seems to be some truth to this statement, and I can't even refute it.

I then went back to the room and put on my clothes. When I came outside again, Huang Li was already sitting at the table and eating.

I walked over and took a look. It was quite rich, including soy milk and fried dough sticks, steamed buns and porridge, as well as sandwiches and milk.

"There's so much, can we finish eating?" I said, pulling out a chair and sitting down.

"I don't know what you're eating, so I just take some and throw it away when I can't finish it."

"What a pity!"

"What's a pity? Don't you have to finish it if you can't finish it?"

Of course, that's what I thought. I picked up a bun and started eating it. It was filled with red bean paste.

While I was eating, Huang Li asked me: "How does it taste?"

"It's very good. Where did you buy it?"

"I didn't buy it, my hotel chef made it."

I nodded and praised: "It's pretty good, delicious, but isn't your hotel not open yet?"

"The hotel is not open, but the employees are already at work."

"Then you're at a loss! We haven't opened yet, and we have to pay wages."

Huang Li laughed and said: "Is it possible to wait until the opening to recruit people? Isn't that a joke?"

That's right, it's good to have a trial opening now.

While we were eating, Huang Li asked me again: "Do you have any plans today?"

"My friend is getting married tomorrow. I'll go over today to see if I can help."

"Then when will you return to Chengdu?"

"You have to go back the day after tomorrow at the latest, what's wrong?"

"It's okay, just asking casually, it's the Chinese New Year soon. Are you planning to celebrate the Chinese New Year in Chengdu?"

I shook my head and replied: "No, I am going back to my hometown to be with my mother this year. I will come back in a few days. Chengdu is not far from Chongqing anyway."

Huang Li nodded and said no more. I just finished eating all the food and there was nothing left.

Huang Li looked at me speechlessly and said, "What do you think? These things are all made by the hotel chef and they cost no money."

"That's a waste. Do you know that there are many, many people who may not even be able to afford food?"

"How is that possible? Is there such a poor place now?"

"Yes, it's just that you don't know."

Huang Li nodded thoughtfully and said, "Okay, save a little more in the future."

I can clearly feel that she has changed, and the change is quite big.

After I cleared away the finished dishes, I habitually lit a cigarette after a meal. As soon as I took a puff, Huang Li said to me: "Smoking after a meal is not a good habit."

"We're all used to it, don't worry about it."

She reached out and took the cigarette away from my mouth, then took out a box of gummy candies from her bag and said to me: "Eating this can not only clean your mouth, but also replace cigarettes."

"Is it useful?" I looked at Huang Li with doubt.

"You'll know after you try it. I usually eat this when I want to smoke, but now I don't smoke very much."

I opened the box, took out a candy and put it in my mouth. It tasted sour and sweet, just like vitamin C tablets, but also had a fruity taste.

"How is it?" Huang Li asked me immediately.

"It's okay, but I'm afraid it won't work as a substitute for cigarettes."

"Just don't think about smoking. It's best not to smoke after meals."

"Okay, I'll be more careful in the future."

"Just keep this box of candy. If you want to smoke after a meal, take one out and eat one."

I nodded and put it into my pocket.

I took out my phone and looked at it. It was already 10:30, and there was a message in the WeChat group set up for Li Feng.

Several people have already arrived at the place I told them before, which happens to be not far from here.

I then said to Huang Li: "Sister Li, I have something to trouble you with. I organized a motorcade for my friend who is getting married tomorrow, but the wedding is tomorrow. I want to open a few rooms at your place.

Do you think it’s okay to let the people in the convoy rest here tonight?”

Huang Li refused without thinking: "No."

I suddenly felt a little embarrassed, but I could understand it. Her place had just been renovated, and there were even some decorations that were not finished, making it not suitable for people to live in.

I had no choice but to smile and said: "That's okay, I'll do it again"

Before I could finish speaking, Huang Li glanced at me and said, "Do you know why I disagree?"

"You haven't finished it here yet?"

Huang Li snorted: "It seems that you have forgotten all the words I told you last night."

I looked at Huang Li in confusion, recalling what on earth I had said to her last night.

At this time, Huang Li said to me again: "I told you, don't call me Sister Li in the future. I'm obviously younger than you, but you call me that as if I'm older than you."

Only then did I realize that it was because of this title. I smiled bitterly and said, "I'm used to calling you Sister Li, so I didn't react for a while."

"Then say it again."

I gave another wry smile, and then said again: "Lily, I have something to trouble you with."

This time, before I could finish my words, she replied: "Okay."

"I haven't even finished speaking yet, you're kidding me!"

"I don't want to hear the rest. I just want to hear you call me Lily."

I smiled again, and she asked me again: "How many of you are there?"

"About twenty people."

"That's no problem. I have triple rooms, double rooms, and a mahjong room. Just call them over and I'll make arrangements."

"Thank you very much. Look at the rent."

"I won't do it anymore."

"This is not good. You are always open for business."

"Don't ask me for money. If you feel sorry for me, just treat me to a meal later."

I knew I couldn't refute it, she just had such a personality, so I had no choice but to nod and agree.

Next, I got in touch with the team members in the group, and then sent the hotel address to the group and asked them to gather here directly.

I waited in front of the hotel in advance. The location I gave them was not far away from here. A few minutes later, several red Porsches drove over.

Even though only a few cars came, they looked quite impressive and immediately attracted the attention of the people around them.
