Volume 1: The Golden Years Chapter 015 Meet at the Hotel
"Master, this car looks a lot like a Passat from the outside, but I didn't expect the interior accessories to be so high-end. Are all the Yiyuan cars this low-key?"
In the Yiyuan special car, Zhu Suosuo asked curiously while looking at the luxurious accessories in the car.
Hearing this, the driver of the special car said reservedly:
"I don't know much about cars, this is provided by the company, only for the lifetime members of Yiyuan!"
Hearing the special car driver say this, Zhu Suosuo naturally thought that Master Ma was the lifetime member he mentioned, and that the reason she received such courtesy was all because the restaurant was doing so for Master Ma's sake.
Thinking of this, she asked casually:
"I'm not a lifetime member of your Yiyuan. Could it be that Mr. Ma...?"
"Miss Zhu, you are joking. You are a lifetime member of Yiyuan!"
Before Zhu Suosuo could finish, the driver interrupted her, remembering what the boss and a young man had said. He picked up a black metal lifetime membership card and a white message card from the passenger seat and handed them to Zhu Suosuo in the back seat, saying:
"Ms. Zhu, this is the lifetime membership card that the distinguished guest asked me to pass on to you, and there is also a message card!"
Zhu Suosuo, with a confused but tinge of joy on her face, reached out to take the membership card handed to her by the special car driver, as well as a white message card with a cartoon image of a giant crab printed on it.
Touching the black metal lifetime membership card, Zhu Suosuo could hardly contain the joy and excitement in her heart. It was a small metal card, but it was a symbol of status. It was the most valuable gift she had ever received.
Opening another message card, Zhu Suosuo frowned slightly, her eyes full of panic and nervousness. On the card was written:
"Tonight at 10:30, room 520 of the Park Hyatt Hotel, there's a surprise waiting for you, see you there!"
A middle-aged man in a high position of power invited a young, beautiful girl who had something to ask of him to his hotel room in the middle of the night. He also gave her a lifetime membership card of a high-end restaurant which was obviously worth a lot of money. In Zhu Suosuo's mind, it was obvious that Master Ma, whom she had just met for the first time today, was Sima Zhao's intention.
After a slight hesitation, Zhu Suosuo lifted her hair, a little nervous but pretending to be indifferent. She looked at the driver in the front row and asked tentatively:
"Master, how much is this membership card?"
He glanced calmly at the charming Zhu Suosuo in the rearview mirror. He had seen many beautiful women like her. On the surface, they were goddesses with high looks, but behind them there were countless men, especially rich men.
The driver, who had seen countless people, thought maliciously in his heart, but he unconsciously flattered like a dog :
"Ms. Zhu, I don't know the exact amount, but based on my experience, tens of thousands of yuan is too little, just the cost of a rich person's meal, and millions are too much, it would be a waste to put it on the card. So, if we compromise, I estimate that your card is worth between 500,000 and 1 million yuan!"
"I understand. Thank you, Master!"
"You're welcome, it's my pleasure!"
…
After the conversation, the soundproofed private car fell completely silent. Zhu Suosuo carefully stacked the membership card and message card in her hand together, and then carefully put them into her handbag. Looking at the lights and feasting outside the window, Zhu Suosuo gritted her teeth, looked at the private car driver in the front row, and said with determination:
"Master, we're not going to the old alley. Please go to the Park Hyatt Hotel. My friend is waiting for me there!"
Male friends, huh?
Or is he a handsome, young and wealthy young man?
I knew it would be like this!
The special car driver secretly praised her in his heart, his eyes filled with unspeakable envy and jealousy. Who wouldn't like such a young, beautiful and hot woman?
Unfortunately, he had no money, so he could only watch the rich young men wantonly enjoy the goddess like Zhu Suosuo, who was high and mighty in the eyes of ordinary people. He glanced at the graceful Zhu Suosuo through the rearview mirror, secretly suppressed the restlessness in his heart, swallowed his saliva, and the driver of the special car said attentively:
"Got it, Miss Zhu, you can take a rest for a while. It's still thirty minutes from here to the Park Hyatt Hotel!"
"Okay, thank you, Master!"
Zhu Suosuo nodded slightly in thanks, then looked out the window without saying a word, her eyes moving around with a sad expression, but a smile on the corner of her mouth.
"You're welcome, it's my pleasure!"
After taking a last look at Zhu Suosuo with a complicated expression, the special car driver responded casually and then concentrated on driving. After dropping Zhu Suosuo off, he could go off work. His wife and children were still waiting for him at home.
Thinking of this, a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, and his face was filled with happiness. His imagination about Zhu Suosuo faded a little, and finally disappeared, leaving only the ordinary person's amazement!
…
At the same time, in front of the Yiyuan Garden.
After Zhu Suosuo left in a special car for a while, Yuan Xudong, who had been hiding in the dark and observing the enemy situation, tidied his clothes a little, then walked out of the gate of Yiyuan, pretending to look around and then discovered Master Ma.
Master Ma, who had been waiting not far away, saw Yuan Xudong walk out of Yiyuan and hurriedly stepped forward, bowing and saying:
"Hello, Mr. Yuan. Mr. Ye asked me to come here to follow your arrangements. Where do you want to go?"
"I'm sorry to trouble Master Ma to make a special trip so late at night!"
Yuan Xudong first pretended to be polite, and then explained randomly:
"I just arrived in Shanghai and am staying at the Park Hyatt Hotel. Considering that I will be in frequent contact with Mr. Ye in the future, I would like to borrow Mr. Ye's car tonight to keep in touch with him!"
What a mess?
What does borrowing a car have to do with keeping in touch?
Looking at Yuan Xudong's nonsense, Master Ma was upset that his good thing was interrupted by him, but he couldn't get angry, so he had to smile and compliment him:
"What are you talking about, Mr. Yuan? Mr. Ye is a man of great talent and Mr. Yuan is young and promising. If you two join forces, you will surely be invincible and make great achievements in the business circle of Shanghai. Borrowing a car to keep in touch with each other now will become a legend in the future!"
"Master Ma, I was right about you!"
After witnessing Master Ma's superb acting skills, Yuan Xudong patted him on the shoulder and sighed, saying that it was a waste of talent for such an outstanding performing talent to stay in Jingyan Group as a driver. Hengdian should be his final destination!
"Thank you Mr. Yuan for the compliment!"
Although Yuan Xudong is not his direct superior and is a generation younger than him, he is a person that Mr. Ye values and is a young man from a wealthy family. Praise from a superior can always make the inferior complacent, and this is the case with Master Ma at this time.
Master Ma led Yuan Xudong to the Mercedes-Benz car, and then he quickly walked to the front of the car, opened the door and said:
"Mr. Yuan, please come in!"
"Um!"
Yuan Xudong nodded slightly, then got into the car without any hesitation. Master Ma closed the door, quickly went to the other side, opened the door and sat in the driving seat. When he started the engine and was about to leave, the owner of Yiyuen just ran out of the store, followed by Zhao Ruoxi with a professional smile on her face.
"Mr. Yuan, Mr. Yuan, please wait a moment!"
Rolling down the car window, Yuan Xudong looked at the enthusiastic Yiyuan boss and joked:
"Boss, did I forget to pay?"
"Mr. Yuan, look at what you are saying. It's not me who wants to see you. It's Xiao Zhao who wants to talk to you!"
After saying that, without waiting for Yuan Xudong's response, he moved a few steps away, exposing Zhao Ruoxi behind him, and ordered anxiously:
"Xiao Zhao, don't you want to say a few words to Mr. Yuan?"
“Hmm~~”
Zhao Ruoxi timidly glanced at her boss and nodded slightly. Then she blushed and walked to the car window. She looked at Yuan Xudong and said in a low voice:
"Mr. Yuan... Mr. Yuan, welcome... welcome to visit us next time. I... I..."
Seeing Zhao Ruoxi's flushed face and stuttering, Yuan Xudong knew that it was not Zhao Ruoxi who wanted to talk to him, but the boss of Yiyuan who wanted to leave him some thoughts so that he would come here more often to take care of his business.
It is obvious that the owner of Yiyuan is very good at doing business. Even Yuan Xudong, who doesn't like seafood, thinks this restaurant is good and is willing to visit next time. He used to come once a month, but forget it, he might as well come once a week!
Thinking of this, he interrupted Zhao Ruoxi and said in a gentle voice:
"Miss Zhao, I understand. I will come here to eat often in the future!"
After that, he glanced at the boss of Yiyuan again, and then continued to smile at Zhao Ruoxi:
"Call me if you have any problem. As long as money can solve the problem, it's not a problem for me. Got it?"
After saying this very pretentious sentence, Yuan Xudong silently gave himself a thumbs up in his heart, as if he saw a series of barrages of comments. Damn it, he got it wrong again!
"Got it, Mr. Yuan!"
Zhao Ruoxi blushed and said, she didn't know what she was thinking of, but a smile appeared on the corner of her mouth. Realizing that it was not appropriate to laugh out loud in this occasion, she quickly held it back and vividly demonstrated in front of Yuan Xudong what it meant to be unable to hold back laughing!
Looking at Zhao Ruoxi's charming smile, Yuan Xudong silently said a few words, "If your heart is as clear as ice, you won't be startled by the sky falling." With a serious face, he said:
"I'm leaving now, see you next time!"
After that, he looked at the owner of Yiyuan and said goodbye:
"Boss, see you next time. Remember to pack a few golden crabs for Miss Zhao to take back and share with her roommates!"
Hearing this, the boss of Yiyuan, who was standing by, quickly assured:
"Got it, Mr. Yuan, don't worry, I will take good care of Xiao Zhao, welcome to visit next time!"
Blushing, Zhao Ruoxi bowed and said respectfully:
"Mr. Yuan, welcome to visit us next time!"
"Well, see you next time!"
Yuan Xudong nodded slightly, then rolled up the car window and told Master Ma to drive away.
"Master Ma, let's go directly to the Park Hyatt Hotel. It's best if we can get to the hotel room before 10:30. My friend and I have an appointment to meet there!"
Seeing that Yuan Xudong could meet a top-notch girl like Zhao Ruoxi just for a meal, Master Ma said enviously while driving:
"Don't worry, I promise to arrive at the hotel at 10:20. You still have ten minutes, and you will definitely be able to enter the hotel room before 10:30. Mr. Yuan, do you still have an appointment with your business partner so late?"
“Not a business partner!”
Yuan Xudong shook his head slightly, with a mysterious smile on his face, and said:
"It was a female friend who had just been cheated by a bad guy. I rushed to offer my warmth and then took advantage of the situation and got both the money and the person!"
Master Ma's eyelids twitched, and he suddenly felt guilty. Afraid that Yuan Xudong would notice something unusual, he quickly covered it up with a smile and said:
"Then I wish Mr. Yuan to get his beautiful lady tonight!"
Hearing this, Yuan Xudong smiled reservedly:
"Thanks!"
…
There was no conversation along the way, and Master Ma drove Yuan Xudong quickly towards the Park Hyatt Hotel.
Ahead, about five minutes' drive away, Zhu Suosuo, with mixed feelings, was sitting in the low-key special car of Yiyuan, also rushing to the Park Hyatt Hotel in silence.
