Gutina Hotel.
The lobby is spacious and bright, with luxurious and dazzling decorations.
The receptionist confird with Li Jing, "Sir, would you like to book the presidential suite for three days?"
Seeing Li Jing nod, the receptionist kept smiling and continued the check-in process for him.
Having worked in a high-end hotel for several years, she wasn’t completely surprised, although clients booking the presidential suite were rare.
It was Li Jing’s youthful appearance that caught her eye, but nothing more.
"The total is fifty-four thousand yuan. I’ve processed it for you, and a personal butler will take you to your room shortly."
Li Jing raised his eyebrows as he took the room key card, surprised to find that the suite ca with a personal butler.
anwhile, a new system prompt popped up in his mind:
[Expense of a high-end hotel suite, experience a different lifestyle.
Positive emotion: Two stars.
Reward: Refund of 1.08 million yuan.]
Even though Li Jing had anticipated it, he couldn’t help but twitch his eyebrows at the information in his mind.
This money can’t be spent, it’s just too much...
He previously wondered if his rewards would decrease over ti due to a lack of emotional fluctuation.
But now it seems there’s no need to wait for the future; after rewarding himself for a while longer, the money he accumulates will be enough to enjoy a lifeti.
Li Jing never thought about becoming the richest man, nor about creating any business empire.
Since heaven has given him the opportunity to enjoy life, why should he expend energy and effort on hard work, rather than fully experiencing the beauty and joy of this world?
Life is short. Without the worries of survival, exploring and experiencing this rich world is what Li Jing finds aningful.
Just as Li Jing was still reveling in the system rewards, the receptionist’s earlier voice drew the attention of many people around.
After all, spending tens of thousands to stay in a hotel isn’t sothing commonly seen in real life.
Especially standing beside were three stylishly dressed young won, who, upon hearing the amount of tens of thousands, all turned around in unison and looked at Li Jing with so surprise.
"Over fifty thousand, oh my, this person is really wealthy..."
"He looks so young, doesn’t quite seem like a big company boss."
"Bosses usually don’t handle hotel check-in themselves, do you think he might be a driver or secretary?"
"Ladies, a driver can’t afford a Gucci worth tens of thousands."
Before the three girls could finish speaking, a mature and charming female voice ca from behind, shocking them into quickly turning around.
They saw a woman with thin-frad glasses and exquisite makeup standing behind them.
The woman’s white suit was slightly open, revealing a hint of beige silk V-neck camisole inside, paired with loose casual trousers and light-colored pointed low-heeled shoes, which gave her a casual yet formal look, like an executive from a company.
"Ladies, have you finished booking your room?"
Wei Jia gave a slight smile, but there was a hint of authority in her eyes, causing the three girls to quickly move aside and say, "Yes, finished. You can book now."
"Thank you."
Wei Jia squinted her eyes and smiled once more, yet the occasional strong aura she exuded made the three young ladies instinctively reluctant to make eye contact with her, causing them to quickly walk away.
"Please book a night view king suite, I have mbership."
Wei Jia skillfully communicated her needs to the receptionist, her beautifully made-up phoenix eyes intentionally or unintentionally glanced at Li Jing, slightly evaluating him with a smirk.
"That Gucci ensemble is quite well coordinated, among the wealthy people I’ve seen recently, it’s considered to have good taste.
Especially since he’s so young, with a gentle deanor, neither arrogant nor nonchalant, it’s sowhat intriguing."
...
Li Jing could sense that his room booking attracted attention from those around him, greatly satisfying his vanity.
Though Li Jing wasn’t particularly flamboyant or showy, being the focus and envy of others still brought him a unique sense of happiness and satisfaction he’d never felt before.
Once the personal butler arrived, Li Jing followed her to the elevator area.
The personal butler was a middle-aged woman about thirty-five years old; her appearance wasn’t outstanding, but her attitude and professional conduct sufficed.
In the brief ti it took to ascend the floors, the butler had already given Li Jing an overview of the hotel and the additional services of the presidential suite.
This provided Li Jing, a first-ti guest, with a basic understanding, preventing him from being entirely ignorant.
And regarding Li Jing, the butler was subtly surprised by his deanor.
Typically, guests of this spending level display so degree of aloofness or distance, often treating her introduction as trivial, not paying attention.
But Li Jing was different; he not only remained calm and gentle, he also exuded no sense of distance.
Especially his attentive look while listening to her introduction, made the butler feel unexpectedly honored, raising a sense of being recognized and needed.
"Sir, based on your needs, I have arranged the best spa package from our hotel, and in an hour, I’ll take you there."
The butler, who held a favorable impression of Li Jing, proactively arranged for the hotel’s top technician, even using her authority to book a package that typically required reservations a day in advance, unable to be experienced by the previous guest.
Li Jing was unaware that his deanor prompted the butler to assist him proactively, and rely continued to thank her as per his nature.
Upon hearing this, the butler’s smile beca increasingly sincere.
Seeing they were about to reach the presidential suite, the butler hurriedly sped up her pace, opening the door first for Li Jing.
The presidential suite’s door is of double door design, doubling the size compared to a standard room door.
As Li Jing stepped inside, a grand living room appeared before him, spacious, clean, exquisite, and tidy.
On either side were corridors, respectively containing two bedrooms, a dining room, a reception room, a bathroom, and a toilet.
Before Li Jing could finish surveying this room, whose area was twice the size of his ho, the butler had already received an exquisite platter from the waiter delivering food outside.
"Mr. Li, this is a welco gift prepared for you by our presidential suite."
Upon hearing this, Li Jing turned around, showing a look of surprise. In the other’s hands was a tray adorned with exquisite pastries and a bottle of champagne covered in English writing.
"We hope you enjoy your stay at our hotel. Do not hesitate to contact if you need anything at any ti."
The butler bowed and sincerely offered his blessings before respectfully exiting the room.
anwhile, Li Jing sat on the expansive, soft sofa, surveying the vast, luxurious room, feeling a strong sense of unreality.
Is this the life of the rich...
From the elevator to the room, Li Jing had been enjoying all-encompassing services, an experience he had to admit was extrely pleasant and comfortable.
Li Jing stood up again, opened the champagne and poured it into a flute, holding the glass in one hand and a snack in the other, standing in front of the massive floor-to-ceiling window, overlooking the now night-clad main district of Celestial Sea City.
He suddenly felt as if he were a successful person, admiring everything he had earned through hard work.
In reality, less than a day had passed since he acquired the system.
This feeling is really nice...
Isn’t this the life I used to envy?
Looking at the lights below like stars and the city roads twisting like fiery dragons, Li Jing felt much more at ease, understanding why the wealthy liked to stand in high places to see the view.
The view here is genuinely amazing...
No wonder everyone strives to earn money, because people with different economic statuses, even in the sa city, live worlds apart, almost like two different worlds.
A phrase popped into Li Jing’s mind:
Those without money are rely surviving.
Those with money are truly living!
...
A mont later, Li Jing finished his spa package.
He had to admit, after finishing, he felt much lighter, refreshed, and completely relaxed.
But since he was used to staying up late, he wasn’t in the mood for sleep yet; he put on a coat, planning to take a walk downstairs.
The night sky was dotted with stars, and the streets were bustling with traffic.
Even at night, as a comrcial center, this place was still lively and bustling.
The landscape lights of the tall buildings illuminated the entire area brilliantly, with exquisite greenery and flashing comrcial screens, filling the surroundings with a luxurious atmosphere.
Li Jing strolled below the hotel, watching the busy receptionists and courteous concierges at the entrance, recalling those late nights when he had to work overti.
Outside, a hotel porter helping a guest with heavy luggage might have stumbled due to the weight, nearly falling over.
Seeing this, Li Jing reflexively reached out to steady him, leaving the porter astonished and profusely apologizing and thanking him.
After noticing Li Jing’s upscale attire, the porter beca even more apologetic and grateful, bowing and repeatedly expressing thanks before hurriedly leaving with the luggage.
At this mont, two figures walked in from the outside.
"Thank you, President Liu. I’ve reached the hotel where I’m staying, so I won’t take up more of your ti."
With slightly flushed cheeks from drinking, Wei Jia walked in from outside the hotel, accompanied by a portly, balding middle-aged man in a suit.
"President Liu, I’m not drunk; I really don’t need help."
"President Wei, everyone says they’re not drunk when they are. Trust , I’ve been drinking for years and I can tell you’re already drunk."
The balding man in a suit continued to hold Wei Jia’s arm, grinning: "Tell your room number, and I’ll walk you up, so you don’t fall."
"President Liu, really don’t..."
"President Wei, don’t be polite. I have nothing else tonight, so I’ll walk you up, just a few minutes."
"I..."
Wei Jia was about to refuse more firmly when she suddenly saw Li Jing passing by from the corner of her eye, a thought flashing through her mind.
"President Wang, why did you personally co down to et ?"
"President Wang?"
Li Jing, who was about to head back, noticed a mature and beautiful woman walking towards him, raising his eyebrows in confusion.
Thinking she had mistaken him for soone else, Li Jing realized she was walking directly and quickly towards him, blinking repeatedly.
Is she... signaling to ?
"President Wang, I’m really sorry, I drank a bit too much and ca back a bit late."
Wei Jia, having reached Li Jing, wore a face full of apology as if she were a subordinate who had made a mistake.
Behind her, seeing this, the balding man slowed his approach, looking Li Jing up and down, "President Wang?"
"Ah right, I forgot to introduce him."
Wei Jia imdiately turned back and respectfully explained: "President Liu, this is my direct superior, President Wang. He also ca to Celestial Sea City for business, so we’re both staying at the sa hotel.
Since President Wang ca down to et , we won’t trouble you to escort upstairs, President Liu."
Upon hearing this, the balding man, noticing Li Jing’s youthful appearance, was a bit skeptical but seeing the Gucci logo on his clothes, beca unsure.
Quickly weighing the pros and cons, the balding man lost interest in continuing, imdiately squeezing out a smile: "That’s good then. Since President Wang is here, I’m not worried about you falling upstairs, I’ll head back first."
"Goodbye, President Wang, and thank you very much for bringing back to the hotel. Take care on your way."
After seeing him off with a smile, Wei Jia quickly collected herself, turned, and apologized and thanked Li Jing beside her:
"Sir, I’m sorry, it was unavoidable just now. Thank you for helping..."
"It was nothing."
Li Jing, surprised to suddenly be perceived as a boss, didn’t mind and was about to turn towards the elevator hall.
Seeing him leave without asking for anything in return or expressing any dissatisfaction, Wei Jia was surprised and beca even more curious about him.
She tidied her hair and clothes, regained her original confident and spirited deanor, and quickly joined Li Jing into the elevator.
Seeing Li Jing look at her, Wei Jia explained: "I also live upstairs, it’s just on the way."
As she spoke, she looked at his distinct, angular face, stretched out her fair and slender right hand, and with a smile, proactively said:
"My na is Wei Jia, since we’ve t by chance, can we beco friends?"
