After Wang Yuyan emerged from the garage, she arrived at the hotel entrance.
Seeing Qin Xuan standing there, waiting for her obediently like a block of wood, for some reason, her mood instantly lifted. She smiled and said, "Let's go. Sister's in a good mood today. I'll take you to a premium room. Rooms like this aren't for just anyone, you know."
The layout of the Isy Grand Hotel was somewhat similar to ancient times.
It was divided into ordinary rooms, deluxe rooms, premium rooms, VIP rooms, and top-tier VIP rooms.
The better the room, the better the service.
VIP rooms were not only luxurious but also provided impeccable service, offering anything you could imagine and more.
Even the companionship services were top-notch, incomparable to streetwalkers.
For those attending the gemstone auction, arrangements had been made in advance.
Since Wang Yuyan's grandfather hadn't come, they were only assigned a premium room this time.
However, in Wang Yuyan's opinion, even a premium room was an incredibly luxurious space for Qin Xuan, something he had likely never seen in his life.
Qin Xuan remained silent but tossed Wang Yuyan a set of keys.
"I've already booked it. Let's go."
"You've booked it?" Wang Yuyan raised her delicate eyebrows.
"You can book a room here?"
Rooms at the Isy Grand Hotel weren't easily obtainable.
Even an ordinary room required a white card issued by Millennium Jewelry.
Those with white cards were either partners of Millennium Jewelry or prominent figures.
Qin Xuan shrugged and casually said, "An old classmate of mine happens to work at this hotel. I just ran into him, and he got me a room."
Wang Yuyan nodded, a hint of regret in her voice. "No wonder. I was thinking of letting you experience a premium room today. But since you've already booked one, we'll just have to make do for tonight. It's a shame you won't get to enjoy the high-class service. Their abalone is the most delicious I've ever tasted. You've missed out."
They entered the elevator together.
Qin Xuan directly pressed the button for the eighteenth floor.
This was the highest floor of the Isy Hotel.
"Qin Xuan, why did you press eighteen? Did you press the wrong button? The eighteenth floor is for top-tier VIPs. Quickly cancel and press three," Wang Yuyan urged.
The third floor was for ordinary rooms.
In Wang Yuyan's estimation, Qin Xuan's classmate could at most get him an ordinary room, and Qin Xuan must have made a mistake.
Even her grandfather, when he visited, only stayed on the fifteenth floor.
Qin Xuan smiled. "I didn't press the wrong button. It's the eighteenth floor. My friend booked an eighteenth-floor room for me."
Just then, a woman with heavy makeup, who was passable in appearance, standing nearby in the elevator, sneered. "You're trying to make me laugh. The eighteenth floor? Why don't you say you're staying on the rooftop? The view is better there, you can feel the natural wind, and it's more suitable for your bragging. If you're really staying on the eighteenth floor, I'll kneel down and polish your shoes for you!"
Wang Yuyan felt like her face had been completely disgraced by Qin Xuan. This guy bragged without thinking. The eighteenth floor, was that something an ordinary person could afford?
Qin Xuan moved slightly closer to Wang Yuyan, a look of distaste on his face. "No need. Your face is covered in so much powder, I'm afraid it'll get on my shoes and be difficult to clean."
"Pfft..." Wang Yuyan couldn't help but let out a snort that sounded like a pig.
"You!" The woman stomped her foot in anger. Some of the powder indeed fell from her face, but she ignored it, furious. "Today, I'm going up with you to see if you're really staying on the eighteenth floor, you poor pretentious braggart." With that, the woman canceled her own selection for the eighth floor.
Qin Xuan smiled playfully and said, "And if I am staying on the eighteenth floor? Forget the shoe polishing. Your face has too much powder; let's do something else."
The woman gritted her teeth, suppressing her rage. "Fine. Then let's bet a million! If you're really staying on the eighteenth floor, I'll give you a million! But if you lose, judging by your attire, you probably can't afford a million. So, if you lose, you'll kneel and lick my shoes, how about that?"
Upon hearing this demand, Wang Yuyan was incensed. A million, who couldn't afford a million? Although she knew Qin Xuan was just trying to save face and brag, this was too insulting. She was about to offer to pay the million for Qin Xuan.
But Qin Xuan cut her off decisively. "Alright, it's a deal."
A sly smile flickered across the woman's lips. Hmph, still bragging about the eighteenth floor. When you're kneeling to lick my shoes, I'll record a video and post it online. That will be quite the spectacle.
Wang Yuyan was surprised that Qin Xuan agreed without a second thought. Was he an idiot? Agreeing to such a humiliating bet? Even if he lost, it was just a million. Didn't her grandfather give him a hundred million? Couldn't he spare a million?
"Hmph, I don't care about you anymore, you scoundrel. Don't say you know me later." Wang Yuyan hugged her arms petulantly and turned her face away, ignoring Qin Xuan.
The elevator soon reached the eighteenth floor. The three of them stepped out. Qin Xuan glanced at the corridor, which was both familiar and strange. Relying on his memory, Qin Xuan led Wang Yuyan and the woman to a room named "Splendor."
"This is it," Qin Xuan said to Wang Yuyan, pointing to the room. "Open the door. I gave you the key earlier."
"Hmph, still pretending. Fine, I'll see today how you manage to open this door," the heavily made-up woman behind them snorted coldly.
Wang Yuyan felt as if her face had sunk to the eighteenth level of hell. Open it, open what? This was utterly humiliating, embarrassing him to the extreme. Helplessly, Wang Yuyan took out the key and, with great reluctance, inserted it into the door lock.
Instantly, all three pairs of eyes fell on Wang Yuyan's hand.
"Click!" As Wang Yuyan turned the key, the door swung open!
Wang Yuyan's pretty face was filled with astonishment. It... it opened! It actually opened!
The woman's face was also one of disbelief. "This... how is this possible!"
Qin Xuan pushed the door open and said to the woman, "The door is open. Isn't it time for you to fulfill your promise?"
"Impossible, this is impossible!" The woman shook her head frantically. "How could you possibly have the key to the eighteenth floor? Impossible, you must have stolen it! Yes! You stole it! I'm going to report you, I'm going to report you! You're finished if you steal things here!"
"Go ahead and report me if you want. I'll be waiting," Qin Xuan said, too lazy to argue with this clown. He gently nudged Wang Yuyan inside, then smiled at the woman. "Remember this room number. I'll be here whenever you decide to bring the million."
The woman stood frozen, unable to comprehend. How could this guy afford to stay on the eighteenth floor?! Was he some young master from a wealthy family? But his clothes and appearance didn't suggest that. Could he have actually stolen it? No, I have to report him! With that, she quickly turned and hurried back to the first floor.
