Chapter 407: Chapter 407: Men of the World are Similarly Unscrupulous
Zhu Kun’s attitude was poor, so naturally the front desk had no good temper with him either.
"I don’t know why you are blacklisted, you probably are the only one who knows the reason."
Although the receptionist did not say it outright, their words suggested that Zhu Kun must have been up to some unsavory business during his previous stays at the hotel, which led to his blacklisting.
Enraged, Zhu Kun exploded, "What the hell do you mean? Say that again to my face, I dare you!"
The front desk couldn’t be bothered to argue with Zhu Kun and promptly called the next guest.
Zhu Kun wanted to argue with the receptionist but was pushed aside by the customers behind him.
"You’d better spend this time checking out other hotels!" the customer reminded him gruffly.
Zhu Kun was furious but also recognized there was some sense in the advice, so he quickly grabbed his luggage and took a taxi to other hotels.
However, after checking nearly a dozen nearby hotels, Zhu Kun found that his ID had been blacklisted by all of them!
Zhu Kun completely fell apart.
He couldn’t understand what was happening at all!
After all, Zhu Kun had only been to Qiantang a few times before and hadn’t stayed in many hotels.
Being blacklisted by one hotel was one thing, but over a dozen? It was simply unbelievable!
After two or three hours of back and forth, Zhu Kun was so exhausted he could barely stand, and finally, his gaze fell on a small lodge not far away.
It was exactly the one he had intended for Chen Xuan to stay in!
Zhu Kun had already asked all the mid-to-high-end hotels nearby, leaving him with no other choice.
Ultimately, Zhu Kun entered the small lodge with a try-and-see attitude.
This time, things went very smoothly; the owner didn’t even look at his ID and let Zhu Kun check in immediately.
Zhu Kun was overjoyed and went up to his room with his luggage.
But when he opened the door, he collapsed.
The walls in the room were mottled and peeling, the furniture dirty and old, the air tainted with a musty smell, and the bathroom reeked.
Such living conditions were comparable to a refugee camp.
But Zhu Kun had no other choice and had to make do.
He was too tired to care about anything and just collapsed on the bed with his luggage.
Bang!
The bed instantly fell apart, and Zhu Kun almost broke his back.
"Fuck this shit!"
Zhu Kun roared in despair.
Elsewhere, inside the Maybach luxury car, Gu Chen’s lips curled into a smug smile.
All this, of course, was his doing!
Gu Chen had already realized that Zhu Kun was intentionally giving Chen Xuan a hard time.
Chen Xuan might not care, but that didn’t mean Gu Chen would tolerate it!
So, Gu Chen had just made a call to his people, instructing them to blacklist Zhu Kun.
Given the Gu Family’s status in Qiantang, a word from him, Gu Chen, meant no hotel owner in Qiantang would dare to disregard his request.
As a result, nearly all the major hotels in Qiantang had already blacklisted Zhu Kun.
Only those unregistered small lodges would let him stay.
Half an hour later, the Maybach stopped at the Huangchao Grand Hotel on the Qiantang River.
The towering hotel building loomed into the clouds, majestic and resplendent, obviously many times better than the Milan Hotel they had been to before!
In fact, this entire Huangchao Grand Hotel belonged to the Gu Family.
That was exactly why Gu Chen could easily book a room here.
Under Gu Chen’s lead, Chen Xuan and Song Qiuhan received a warm welcome from all the staff as soon as they entered.
Afterward, Gu Chen took Chen Xuan and Song Qiuhan to the presidential suite on the top floor.
The entire presidential suite was the epitome of luxury, featuring huge floor-to-ceiling windows. Being the tallest building in Qiantang, not only could one overlook the entire city, but the magnificent Qiantang River was also right beside it!
"Brother Xuan and Doctor Song must be tired from the journey, so I won’t bother you two anymore. You guys rest first."
After saying that, Gu Chen was about to leave directly but was stopped by Song Qiuhan. "Wait a minute, where’s my room?"
Gu Chen was stunned for a moment, "What, aren’t you two staying in the same room?"
Song Qiuhan’s face flushed with embarrassment, "Who... Who said I was going to share a room with him..."
Gu Chen had intended to play dumb to help his Brother Xuan and this Doctor Song get together, but it seemed the other party wasn’t willing.
"Sorry, my mistake. Well, the room is already prepared, just downstairs."
Saying this, Gu Chen handed over the room card.
Song Qiuhan took the room card, blushing, and took the elevator down.
Watching Song Qiuhan’s shy figure from behind, Gu Chen approached Chen Xuan with a sly grin, "Brother Xuan, you’ve got quite the eye. My potential sister-in-law is pretty good!"
Chen Xuan was speechless, "What sister-in-law, don’t talk nonsense, Doctor Song and I are just ordinary colleagues!"
"Ordinary colleagues? Who are you kidding? Let me tell you, Brother Xuan, I, Gu Chen, may not be good at other things, but I’ve never been wrong about relationships between men and women!"
"Just now, the way Doctor Song looked at you, with her eyes conveying feelings and sending secret glances, if she’s not into you, I, Gu Chen, will write my name backward!"
"Tell me the truth, how far have you and Doctor Song gone? Have you held hands? Have you kissed?"
"I..." Chen Xuan was at a loss for words.
He had wanted to deny it outright, but then he remembered everything that had happened between him and Song Qiuhan that night and hesitated.
Gu Chen noticed all this and started making a fuss, "Holy shit, don’t tell me you’ve already, you know... Damn, men are all the same! But no wonder, Doctor Song is so beautiful, who wouldn’t be overwhelmed..."
Before Gu Chen could finish, Chen Xuan slapped him on the head, "What do you mean ’men are all the same’? You think I’m like you? Alright, there’s nothing for you here, you can roll out now!"
In the entire Qiantang, probably only Chen Xuan dared to talk to Young Master Gu like that.
Gu Chen grimaced and had to leave.
Before he left, Gu Chen didn’t forget to tell Chen Xuan that today was his birthday, and there would be a grand banquet at the restaurant in the evening, insisting that Chen Xuan must attend.
Chen Xuan couldn’t be bothered and agreed noncommittally.
In the evening, Chen Xuan said goodbye to Song Qiuhan and took a taxi to the Guanchao Pavilion for Gu Chen’s birthday banquet.
Guanchao Pavilion was the most famous restaurant in the whole of Qiantang.
It was situated against the Qiantang River, making it an excellent spot for watching the tide during the annual tidal bore.
Apart from that, the food at Guanchao Pavilion was also incredibly famous, always attracting a full house.
However, today, to celebrate his birthday, Gu Chen had booked the entire place.
Upon arriving at the entrance, Chen Xuan saw many diners being turned away. When he mentioned he was there for the birthday party, he was also stopped on the pretext that he did not have an invitation card.
Chen Xuan, having no choice, had to call Gu Chen.
"What? Brother Xuan, you’re already there? Alright, just wait a moment, I’ll have someone come to get you!"
Gu Chen was currently stuck in traffic, so he directly made a phone call.
