"Don't ask too much. I'm busy right now. Call me when you're done."
Jiang Xiaobai hung up the phone.
After a while, Jiang Xiaobai finished packing, carried his suitcase and went out, putting the key on the table, looked back at this room full of memories, and slammed the door shut.
As I went downstairs and walked out of the building, I saw the door of the building next door opened, and the girl with glasses, Susan, also came out carrying a suitcase.
"Eh…"
Jiang Xiaobai was stunned.
"ah!"
Susan was also stunned.
"Where are you going with that suitcase?"
Jiang Xiaobai asked.
"I had no money to pay the rent, so I was kicked out by that fat landlord."
Susan looked frustrated.
"And you?"
Susan then asked.
"It can be considered as being kicked out by the landlord."
Jiang Xiaobai said lightly.
"Oh, what a coincidence."
Susan smiled awkwardly, pulled her big red suitcase, and walked a few steps towards Jiang Xiaobai.
"Hmm... coincidence."
Jiang Xiaobai responded, turned around and walked forward with his suitcase.
"that..."
Susan stood there and hesitated, swallowing the words that came to her lips. She stared blankly at Jiang Xiaobai walking further and further away, and her eyes unconsciously turned red.
Jiang Xiaobai walked to the intersection, hailed a taxi, put the suitcase in the trunk, opened the door and got in the car, then looked back in the direction of Susan.
"What are you doing standing there? Come here!"
"ah!"
Tears were welling up in Susan's eyes. When she heard these words, a look of joy instantly appeared on her face. She trotted over with the suitcase, opened the trunk, stuffed the suitcase in with all her strength, and got into the taxi, panting.
"Master, Shangri-La, Jinhua Road."
Jiang Xiaobai said.
"OK."
The taxi driver nodded.
…
"You're going to the hotel?"
Susan seemed a little nervous.
Jiang Xiaobai nodded and used his phone to search for information about Jiang Shulin. The information he found on his phone showed that in addition to Hongsheng Group, there were 78 other companies associated with Jiang Shulin. In these 78 companies, he was either a shareholder or other person.
I randomly clicked on a few related companies and found that there was a person named Gao Ru who had many connections with him. The name Gao Ru could basically be seen in all the companies related to Jiang Shulin.
He seemed to remember that Jiang Shulin's current wife was called Gao Ru.
I clicked on the companies associated with Gao Ru out of curiosity and was shocked to find that there were more than 3,000 companies associated with this name!
"Why don't you ask me anything? For example, why was I kicked out?"
Susan was a little confused when she saw Jiang Xiaobai just looking at his phone and not asking anything.
"Didn't you say you didn't have money to pay the rent? How about this? If you think that place is nice and want to go back, I'll transfer some money to you via WeChat, and you can go back and pay and continue to live there?"
Jiang Xiaobai said lightly.
"No way! You should have money now, why were you kicked out?"
Susan was curious.
"Well... not for any reason."
Jiang Xiaobai didn't look up and continued looking at his phone.
"Haha, when people leave, the tea gets cold, you must be despised..."
Susan gloated.
"If you keep talking so much, you won't be able to live with me anymore."
Jiang Xiaobai rolled his eyes at her.
"Who wants to live with you? Can you be less narcissistic?"
Susan fought back decisively like a little hedgehog.
"All right."
Jiang Xiaobai ignored her.
Susan was angry and didn't say anything.
Ten minutes later, they arrived at the entrance of Shangri-La Hotel. The two of them pulled their suitcases into the hotel and came to the front desk.
"You really don't live with me?"
Jiang Xiaobai looked at Susan.
"You're so funny. We're not lovers, why should I live with you?"
Susan spoke righteously.
"Okay, one presidential suite and one ordinary single room. Book it for a week first."
Jiang Xiaobai handed his ID card to the front desk.
"You live in the presidential suite? Give me a regular single room?"
Susan glared at Jiang Xiaobai.
"If you pay for it yourself, you can also stay in the presidential suite. I have no problem with that."
Jiang Xiaobai said lightly.
"you..."
Susan was so angry that she was speechless.
"Sir, Madam, our presidential suite has two bedrooms, one main and one secondary, each with a bathroom, so it can accommodate two people."
The receptionist thought it was a quarrel between two young lovers and introduced them with a smile.
"No need, just give me a single room."
Susan glared at Jiang Xiaobai and took out her ID card.
"Okay. The deposit is fifty thousand, and the rent is seventeen-five thousand, a total of two hundred and twenty-five thousand. Card or cash?"
the front desk clerk asked with a smile.
"How much? Two hundred and twenty-five thousand?"
Susan's eyes widened as she subconsciously looked at the room rate on the wall. The presidential suite was 22,500 yuan a night, and her small single room was also 2,500 yuan...
"Swipe the card."
Jiang Xiaobai handed the bank card to the front desk, and the two checked in. Two hotel waitresses came to lead the way, and two male waiters helped carry the suitcases, and several people entered the stairs.
"Jiang Xiaobai, are you sure we want to live here?"
Susan pulled the corner of Jiang Xiaobai's clothes and asked in a low voice. I thought to myself, this place is too expensive... One day's rent is enough to buy a square meter of house.
"The room fee has been paid, do you think you can stay here?"
Jiang Xiaobai answered.
"oh."
Susan hesitated.
The elevator arrived at the corresponding floor. Susan's single room was on the left side of the elevator entrance, and Jiang Xiaobai's presidential suite was on the right side of the elevator entrance.
One of the waitresses and the waiter carrying Susan's suitcase took Susan to the left, and the remaining waitress and the waiter carrying the suitcase took Jiang Xiaobai to the right. Jiang Xiaobai vaguely heard a noise in the corridor at the corner in front. After turning the corner, he saw a hotel security guard and two waitresses arguing with a fairy-like woman dressed in ancient costume.
"Please make way."
The waitress who led the way said this as she walked past.
"Hey, Jiang Xiaobai?"
The fairy-like woman in ancient costume recognized Jiang Xiaobai at once.
"Oh, is that you?"
Jiang Xiaobai also recognized the woman dressed in ancient costume. She was the female short video anchor on the small platform whom he met in the provincial library yesterday. Her name was "I'm Not Xiao Tiantian".
I have to say that this girl is followed by thousands of people in the live broadcast room and has become the goddess in the hearts of many otaku friends. She does have the ability.
The appearance is absolutely online.
"Where do you live?"
The woman in ancient costume said, "I'm not Xiao Tiantian" and glanced at the other side of the corridor, which was the exclusive area of the luxury suite.
"Well, you are...what's wrong?"
Jiang Xiaobai asked casually.
"I wanted to go over there to shoot a video, but they wouldn't let me."
"I'm not Candy" is a somewhat awkward explanation.
"Sir, that is the check-in and activity area for our luxury suite guests. This lady is staying in an ordinary room, so she cannot enter that area."
The waitress who had argued with "I'm not Xiao Tiantian" saw that Jiang Xiaobai was a guest staying in the luxurious area over there. Most of those who could afford to live in the luxurious area over there were either officials or rich people, not ordinary people, so she hurriedly explained.
"Uh, if she's my friend, can she come with me?"
Jiang Xiaobai asked.
"Of course you can."
The waitress nodded quickly.
"I'm not only his friend, I'm also his girlfriend... If you have the guts, stop me..."
"I'm not Xiao Tiantian." He glared at the waitress with dissatisfaction and took Jiang Xiaobai's arm affectionately.
