Chapter 227: All Men Are Pigs
Yue Guodong was stunned on the spot. His first reaction when he heard Lu Yiming say this was: These mainlanders must be crazy because of poverty. They cross the river and the sea to come to Hong Kong. Could it be that they are here to fleece our Huangren College?
It's okay to stay in a hotel, but he has to stay in the most expensive hotel. What kind of shameless bumpkin would say such a thing?
However, Yue Guodong was a good-tempered person after all. Although he secretly despised him , he did not get angry with Lu Yiming. He kindly reminded him, "The best hotel nearby is the Bonning Hotel at 310 Gloucester Avenue. But it is a five-star hotel. The cheapest suite costs nearly a thousand dollars a night..."
The implication is that Huangren College should not be such a big wronged person.
When they heard that the cheapest suite would cost one thousand per night, Lin Yuzhen and others were shocked.
"What? A thousand bucks for one night?"
"Is this bed made of money or gold?"
“Isn’t this too expensive?”
Even Zhu Hanwen himself calculated in his mind that his monthly salary, without food or drink, would not be enough to stay in this hotel for one night?
It's so fucking outrageous!
Seeing the shocked expressions on the faces of these students and teachers, as if they had never seen the world before, Yue Guodong couldn't help but look at Lu Yiming with a meaningful smile on his lips.
Although he liked the depth of Lu Yiming's thoughts, he regarded Lu Yiming's self-confidence as arrogance, which made him unhappy.
At this moment, he even thought with some gloating. Lu Yiming had already said this, and Huangren College would not pay for it anyway. If Lu Yiming had the ability, he could pay for it out of his own pocket. If he didn't have money, he had to shut up and live in the hotel arranged by Huangren College.
"Five-star..."
Lu Yiming raised his head slightly to look at the sky, thinking of the seven-star Burj Al Arab Hotel in Dubai that he had often seen on TV and in magazines in his previous life. He sighed and said, "It's five-star, so I'll just make do with it. After all, I'm here to study, so it's okay to be a little frugal. If Huangren College doesn't have money, I can pay for it myself, right?"
Make do?
Hard work and simplicity?
Why does this sound so harsh?
Not to mention Yue Guodong, even Zhu Hanwen couldn't help but complain about his students.
Then he really complained.
"Lu Yiming! Don't try to get any special treatment! We came here together, how can you stay in a hotel alone? Anyway, I won't agree."
Lu Yiming said in surprise: "Ah? Aren't we going together? I'll treat you."
Yue Guodong: “…”
Zhu Hanwen: “…”
Lin Yuzhen: “…”
Wu Qiuya: “…”
Lv Jiajia: “…”
Li Zhengkai: “…”
Sure enough, if you have money you can do whatever you want.
Zhu Hanwen held it in for a long time, not knowing what to say. In the end, he could only pretend that nothing had happened: "Oh, that's fine. I thought you were going to live alone."
Then, he kindly reminded me, "That hotel is very expensive. One room costs one thousand dollars a day! We will study and exchange for a week."
Lu Yiming waved his hand and said nonchalantly: "If I don't get enough rest, it will affect my study state. What if it causes me to fail the college entrance examination? Is this a matter of money?"
When Yue Guodong heard Lu Yiming said he would pay for it out of his own pocket, he breathed a sigh of relief. While he was surprised that there were rich people in the mainland, he enthusiastically led the way for everyone: "If that's the case, then I'll take you to the Boning Hotel."
Soon after, everyone arrived at the Boning Hotel.
Looking at the magnificent lobby, Zhu Hanwen had the illusion that he was in a palace. If it weren't for his students, how could he afford to stay in such a five-star hotel?
Le Guodong, who followed over, had eyes full of envy. He passed by this place every day but had never lived here. Then he looked at Lu Yiming's back with burning eyes, a look of curiosity on his face.
Who is this young man?
He is polite but also confident and proud, humorous and thoughtful, and he is also very rich.
When will the mainland be able to produce such talents?
Not to mention Zhu Hanwen, even Li Zhengkai opened his mouth wide and couldn't utter a word for a long time.
Although his family is rich and his parents even bought him a 10,000 yuan computer, if he dared to spend his own money and treat everyone to a five-star hotel like Lu Yiming did, his father would probably break his legs.
Several people entered the front desk hall, just like Granny Liu entering the Grand View Garden, looking around, unable to stop their curiosity.
Although Lu Yiming was not rich in his previous life, when he went out to handle large orders, he was basically arranged to stay in five-star hotels. This now no longer attracted him.
Lu Yiming walked straight to the front desk, knocked on the counter lightly, and said casually, "Please arrange a few connected single rooms for me. There are six of us."
Because it is the peak tourist season, there are many tourists coming to play, and many rooms are booked. The lady at the front desk said very politely: "I'm sorry, the ordinary single rooms connected together are no longer available. For the time being, only the deluxe full sea view king-size bed rooms are still available. They are all single rooms. The price is 1,399 per day. Do you need them?"
When Lin Yuzhen heard this, she couldn't help but scream, "One thousand three hundred and ninety-nine for a room a day? Why don't you just go and rob it?"
Upon hearing this, Wu Qiuya pretended to be considerate of Lu Yiming and gently advised: "Why don't we change places? This one is really too expensive. There's no need to waste it."
Zhu Hanwen counted with his fingers in a serious manner, "One thousand three hundred and ninety-nine per day for a room. There are six of us here, so we need to stay for seven days... No, we will leave on the evening of the end of the exchange, so we can stay one day less. Or if we can share a bed with two people and squeeze together, we can have three rooms - but that will cost at least twenty-five thousand!"
This is already the most economical option, and the calculation gave Zhu Hanwen a shock.
My goodness, 25,000 yuan! He would have to go without food or drink for more than two years to be able to afford this place!
Lu Yiming looked at Li Zhengkai with disdain: "I'm not used to sleeping in the same room with a man. If it's a girl..."
Lu Yiming's eyes swept over the girls in front of him. Only Wu Qiuya was full of anticipation, and her bright eyes even showed a hint of eagerness to try.
Isn’t this exactly what we want?
Don't even think about tarnishing my innocence!
Of course Lu Yiming knew what Wu Qiuya was planning. No man could stand the test of such a young and beautiful girl throwing herself into his arms.
But Lu Yiming also knew that Wu Qiuya was a beautiful snake, beautiful but poisonous. If he really wanted to "eat her up", it would be difficult to get away in the future. Lu Yiming had a bright future, so he naturally didn't want to get into trouble just because of a few days of happiness.
"Let's have a room for each person. Since no one has ever stayed here before, let's just enjoy it. It's just a few tens of thousands of dollars, there's no need to haggle over it."
Lu Yiming looked at the hotel receptionist again and said, "I just saw that I can apply for a card. Please apply for a card for me and top up 100,000 yuan. All expenses for these rooms will be on me."
Although the customers who come to this kind of five-star hotel are generally not short of money, it is rare to see a rich man like Lu Yiming who charges 100,000 yuan right away.
At this moment, not only the girl at the front desk who was handling business was flirting with Lu Yiming, but the lobby manager not far away was also alarmed. He ran over to serve tea and water, and personally led everyone to the room.
Lu Jiajia, who had been quiet all this time, looked at Lu Yiming with curiosity.
How come Lu Yiming is so rich?
Lu Jiajia had only 500 yuan in her hand. Before she left, her mother asked her father who was on a business trip abroad and gave it to her for emergency use.
Li Zhengkai also couldn't believe that Lu Yiming, who was ordinary and unremarkable in school, was actually a rich second-generation?
However, what made Lu Jiajia and Li Zhengkai even more incomprehensible was that Wu Qiuya and Lin Yuzhen had no expression at all.
My dear ladies, that is one hundred thousand dollars! Not ten dollars!
Do you think it's normal for Lu Yiming to casually take out 100,000 yuan?
Lu Jiajia whispered to Lin Yuzhen, "Lu Yiming is spending so much money, will his family agree? Will he be scolded when he returns home?"
Lin Yuzhen blinked, looking puzzled: "What's so strange about that? Lu Yiming spent his own money, so of course he didn't need to ask his family for permission. My uncle also knows about this."
In her impression, Lu Yiming made $300,000 by selling software, so 100,000 Hong Kong dollars is just a drop in the bucket.
Wu Qiuya had read Hong Kong newspapers, so she knew Lu Yiming's history of making a fortune, and even knew it more thoroughly than Lin Yuzhen. She knew that 100,000 yuan was not even a drop in the bucket for Lu Yiming.
"You earned it yourself?"
Li Zhengkai didn't believe it at all, and said with disdain: "How is this possible? I have read a lot of books, don't try to fool me!"
Lin Yuzhen curled her lips and looked at Li Zhengkai with disdain: "What's impossible about this? Lu Yiming wrote a software by himself and sold it to Microsoft, so he made $300,000. My uncle also knows about this. Lu Yiming wrote the code in my uncle's house. The world's richest man Bill Gates even called our house. Could it be fake?"
Lu Jiajia looked at Lu Yiming in surprise, exclaiming: "You are amazing. You actually made $300,000, and it was from Microsoft! As far as I know, Microsoft is a world-class company, and its founder Bill Gates is the world's richest man. How can you make money from the world's richest man?"
Li Zhengkai opened his mouth and wanted to find fault, but after thinking for a long time, he found that he had nothing to say. He was not even jealous. After all, what Lu Yiming could do was beyond his imagination, let alone catching up and surpassing him.
Wu Qiuya silently looked at the profile of Lu Yiming who was paying the bill, and thought to herself: Sure enough, men are the most handsome when they are spending money.
Especially the man who spent huge sums of money without even frowning, was so handsome that it made the world cry and the ghosts cry. She couldn't help but squeeze her long white legs together.
Soon, the girl at the front desk checked everyone in. With their room cards, everyone took the elevator to their rooms on the 17th floor under the personal guidance of the lobby manager.
The corridor was covered with soft carpets, and people walked without making any noise, so as not to disturb the guests in the rooms passing by. The entire corridor was in the middle of the building, so the noise from the outside world could not be heard. In such a quiet environment, everyone's breathing slowed down involuntarily.
"Everyone, we have arrived at your rooms. These are the rooms. I will go down first. If you have any questions, just pick up the phone in your room and it will be automatically transferred to the front desk. I wish you all a pleasant journey and a pleasant stay."
As soon as the lobby manager left, several people excitedly swiped their cards to enter their own rooms.
The room was very large, more than a dozen square meters, with not only a comfortable big bed, but also a large bathtub. The floor-to-ceiling windows provided good lighting, and one could directly see the sea. The floor was covered with a thick blanket, which was very comfortable to step on.
Some girls even took off their shoes as soon as they entered the room, feeling the delicate touch of the blanket with an intoxicated look on their faces.
Lu Yiming entered the room, closed the door, took off all his clothes and started to take a shower.
This is his habit. Whenever he goes on a business trip, he likes to take off all his clothes and take a shower. He is not afraid of cameras in the room. If someone wants his photos and videos of naked beauties, he, a grown man, will not be interested, right?
After taking a comfortable hot bath and changing into clean clothes in his suitcase, Lu Yiming called Zhao Tiezhu: "Are you guys outside the hotel now? Just go to the front desk and report my name to check in."
"Okay boss."
Zhao Tiezhu, who was drinking coffee outside the hotel, poured all the coffee in the cup into his mouth in one gulp, then spit the ice cubes into the flower bed like a pea shooter, then wore sunglasses and took his backpack to go into the hotel to check in.
Now, no matter where Lu Yiming went, he would always take Zhao Tiezhu with him. Along the way, Zhao Tiezhu did not ride in the same car with Lu Yiming, but just rented a car and followed behind. He waited outside when he entered the school.
After following him all the way, Zhu Hanwen and others didn't even notice him.
Wu Qiuya entered the room and fell on the soft big bed, feeling very sorry.
After all, she was just a little bit away from convincing Lu Yiming to live in the same room with her. By then, they would be alone together for six or seven days, and she didn't believe that she couldn't win Lu Yiming over.
But Lu Yiming was not moved at all.
She was a little confused.
Why was Lu Yiming so obsessed with me in the beginning, but now he chose to stay away from me? What did I do to provoke him?
For a moment, Wu Qiuya even began to doubt her appearance. Could it be that she was not as pretty as before?
In front of the dressing mirror, looking at her still beautiful and elegant face in the mirror, Wu Qiuya couldn't figure out the reason no matter how hard she tried. She could only curse inwardly: Humph, men are all pigs, they get tired of the old and love the new!
