NOVEL WEB Chapter 110 Platinum Member
"Look at the scenery outside the window, you can see the best views in Celestial Sea City. Just staying in this suite for the trip is already worth it."
In front of the floor-to-ceiling windows of the suite's living room, Li Fuguo was having a video call with his wife, looking radiant.
He managed to stay calm in front of Li Jing and others, but the moment he called his wife, he couldn't help but brag: "I told you to come, but you didn't want to. See, now you're regretting it? Li Jing has made it big, and he's put us up in a presidential suite..."
"Oh, enough, enough. It's not like you got rich, what's there to be excited about? With you, just finding a place barely to avoid the rain would be enough, and you're even asking Li Jing to spend money on a presidential suite..."
"What you said is obviously out of jealousy."
"Jealous of what? Jealous of your snoring at night? Jealous of you not showering for days? Even your daughter can't stand your sweaty smell, you know..."
"Alright, alright, talking to you is no fun."
Seeing the other side start to air out his dirty laundry, Li Fuguo hurriedly switched off the video speaker, looked around to make sure no one was nearby, and finally relaxed a bit.
He picked up his phone again, thought for a moment, then his lips curled in a smile as he dialed another long-time old friend for a WeChat video call...
Meanwhile, in the master bedroom, Li Weijun was walking around with his hands behind his back, inspecting the room. He approached the wardrobe, touched it, and clicked his tongue: "Looking at the texture and color, this cabinet is made of mahogany, it's certainly a level above what we have in our hotels..."
"Don't touch everything, you can't afford to break things here. Don't expect to rely on your son to clean up your mess."
Liu Mei glared unkindly at Li Weijun, who was wandering around the room, then continued speaking to her friend on the phone: "Oh, Sister Liu, I'm so sorry, I've already arrived in Celestial Sea City, so I can't come over to yours to play cards for a while."
"Hehehe, Sister Liu, your son is also excellent. I heard your son became a doctor, right? Doctors earn well. My son is just messing around in Celestial Sea City, didn't expect he actually made a name for himself, hahaha."
"You're totally right on that, our Li Jing has been really well-behaved since he was a kid, didn't need Li Weijun and me to manage him at all, he's very self-disciplined.
And let me tell you a secret, my son has been popular with girls since he was little and this time I came, I saw two girls working as his assistants. They're so pretty, even more than celebrities!
Now I'm not worried about him finding a girlfriend, but more afraid that he'll choose a partner too casually, hahaha..."
"Hehehehe, are you laying eggs there?"
Standing nearby admiring the room's decor, Li Weijun heard Liu Mei continually talking on the bed and muttered impatiently under his breath. Then he turned to leave the room: "Forget it, these women talk too much, I'd rather go outside for some peace..."
But as he reached the living room, he heard hearty laughter.
It was Li Fuguo holding his phone and laughing loudly: "Look at this view, you can see the entire business center! Old Hu, at your age, you gotta come to Celestial Sea City and check it out for yourself, especially staying in a suite like this gives you the real experience, the other rooms don't have this view..."
Watching Li Fuguo boast to his old friend, Li Weijun twitched the corners of his mouth, fearing the other would suddenly turn the camera on him to say a few words, he quickly turned and retreated back to his bedroom...
...
At this moment, outside Li Jing's closed suite door, Zhang Xinxin and Ge Qin were standing face to face.
Noticing Zhang Xinxin's uneasy expression, Ge Qin realized something and quickly explained awkwardly: "Sister Xinxin, I just wanted to have a casual chat with Li Jing. After all, he invited me to stay in the hotel, and not saying a word to him would be too impolite."
Hearing this, Zhang Xinxin, still unsure of the other's intentions, smiled generously: "You can talk to President Li anytime, it's just that right now he's discussing something with An Tong, and even I'm not in a position to go in."
"I see, then I guess I'll head back to my room for now."
Hearing this, Ge Qin glanced at the tightly closed door and nodded, preparing to leave. But then she noticed out of the corner of her eye that the housekeeper was approaching quickly.
Seeing Zhang Xinxin and Ge Qin, the female housekeeper smiled and greeted them, then rang the bell of the suite.
Seeing this, Zhang Xinxin initially wanted to stop her, but then inexplicably lowered her hand.
Since it was the housekeeper who knocked, it's not my fault, it shouldn't count as me disturbing Brother Jing...
As she was thinking this, the door slowly opened.
An Tong came out, saw it was the housekeeper, looked slightly surprised, then opened the door fully: "You're here to see Li Jing, right? He's inside."
"Thank you." The housekeeper nodded with a smile and walked into the room.
Seizing the moment, Zhang Xinxin moved in front of An Tong, quickly sizing up her collar, buttons, and other details, but found nothing amiss.
"What are you doing?" Seeing her sniffing around like a puppy, An Tong couldn't help but frown and push her away.
Zhang Xinxin squinted her eyes, staring into An Tong's eyes: "You weren't just doing anything with Brother Jing, were you?"
"W-what could we be doing?" An Tong's eyes flickered slightly.
"Really?"
"Really."
An Tong, unable to stand the questioning, whispered: "There are others here, be careful."
Seeing her glance at Ge Qin, Zhang Xinxin finally withdrew her gaze and said: "Alright, I'll let it go this time."
Then she turned to Ge Qin and said: "You wanted to talk to President Li, right? Let's go in together."
"Oh, can I go in?"
Ge Qin was initially surprised, but seeing both An Tong and Zhang Xinxin entering the room, she didn't hesitate anymore. She instinctively took a deep breath, adjusted her clothes, and followed in.
At this moment, the housekeeper was speaking respectfully to Li Jing, who was sitting on the sofa: "Mr. Li, we've just completed the statistics and calculations on your member account points, and your spending points have already met the criteria for our highest level, the Platinum Member Card."
Saying so, the housekeeper sat beside Li Jing, taking out a tablet which displayed the hotel's membership website.
She enthusiastically introduced: "We've upgraded you to a Platinum Card Member of our Tianyue Group, and the relevant information has been sent to the email address you provided earlier."
Hearing this, Li Jing raised an eyebrow: "Platinum Card Member? Are there any special privileges?"
"To become a Platinum Card Member requires staying a total of thirty nights within a year and reaching a certain spending amount. Mr. Li, your cumulative expenditure in our hotel exceeds a million, meeting our points standard for the Platinum Card."
The housekeeper especially explained the rarity of the Platinum Card, then introduced the benefits: "Our Platinum Card Members can use it at any hotel under Tianyue Group, with privileges including free late check-out until 4 PM, complimentary breakfast, hotel executive lounge, swimming pool, gym, and free room upgrades..."
The three who just walked in happened to hear the conversation between Li Jing and the housekeeper.
An Tong, already aware of the suite's price, remained relatively calm but was still secretly stunned at the amount Li Jing had spent. Thankyouforreading.ThiswasbroughttoyoubyM|V|L*EMPYR.
Zhang Xinxin, however, had shining eyes. In her eyes, Li Jing became more and more handsome, more and more perfect. If it weren't for others being present, she would have found it hard to resist another passionate moment with him.
Among the three, Ge Qin was the most shocked.
Especially upon hearing that Li Jing had spent over a million just on hotels during this period, her worldview shattered.
The confidence and vanity she had built up in her small town suddenly seemed like a joke at this moment.
She stared blankly at Li Jing, who remained calm and composed as he listened to the housekeeper's introduction, her eyelashes gently fluttering. For some reason, although Li Jing was still the same, in her heart, he seemed to be cloaked in a magnificent robe, deeply attracting her gaze.
If she saw rich second-generation heirs or wealthy people on the internet or TV, Ge Qin would just feel they were too far from her, inducing no significant emotions.
However, Li Jing was vividly in front of her, and his spending power far surpassed those internet celebrities who flaunt wealth as a gimmick.
Most crucially, such a person, who she once fantasized as her perfect partner, was only a few meters away from her, and they had even exchanged smiles face to face before.
This feeling brought about by such close contact stirred slight ripples in her heart that had never liked other boys her age.
