Chapter 297 Pretending to be mysterious
Seeing that Gu Mingyue spoke English so fluently, and with more and more people gathering around, the front desk felt that they had caused trouble and was afraid that they would not be able to handle it, so they called the manager in a panic.
After a while, a middle-aged man in a neat suit, thin but looking very smart, came hurriedly.
Before coming, he got a general understanding of the situation and said to the people around him, "Everyone, I am the general manager Zhai Xiangdong. Due to our management omissions, the staff has not been able to do their job well. Please forgive me for the trouble I have caused you. I will handle it immediately. Please make way for me."
After pacifying the people who were watching the fun, he looked at Gu Mingyue. From the intentional or unintentional complaints from the front desk, he knew that this person was the most difficult one.
He said in a friendly manner, "Hello, I understand the situation. It is true that our staff is not very professional. So, I see that you have all booked standard rooms. I will give you a 30% discount. Normal standard rooms only provide breakfast. I will make an exception for you. The restaurant has a buffet. You can go whenever you want. Do you think this solution is satisfactory?"
Whenever she heard his name, Gu Mingyue always had a sense of familiarity. Fortunately, she had a good memory and quickly remembered the black market boss she had dealt with when she went to Harbin to resell goods.
He couldn't help but raise his eyebrows and asked, "Do you know Zhai Xiangnan?"
Zhai Xiangdong's pupils shrank, and he secretly looked at the young girl opposite him. Although the second son in their family had been with many women, they often broke up with him either because of his bad temper or because they were driven away by his deadly mouth.
In the early years, he and the third brother tried to persuade him, but anyone would get tired of being scolded by his younger brother's girlfriend every day, so let it be, whatever happens. Anyway, with them around, the second brother would not be left alone for the rest of his life.
However, the past still haunted him. Zhai Xiangdong thought the person in front of him was someone he had dated before and was looking for revenge. He immediately denied it three times, "I don't know, I don't know him, I haven't heard of him."
Then he asked tentatively, "Are you looking for this person?"
Even if they were face to face, the other party would not be able to recognize her. Gu Mingyue just suddenly remembered this and asked casually, but she had no idea that it would make the person on the other side so worried.
"Just asking casually, he's not an important person." Then he pointed at the front desk and said, "I am half satisfied with the manager's handling of the matter, and the other half is dissatisfied with the front desk. Not to mention that her attitude of judging people by their appearance makes people uncomfortable, the trade fair is coming soon, and I believe that more and more people will come. If such a person is allowed to continue to work, it will seriously affect the attitude of foreign businessmen towards our people. The country that our ancestors worked so hard to build was to make the Chinese people stand up straight. Now it is open again to break the blockade, open the door to the world, and exchange what we have with other countries on an equal footing and mutually beneficial basis. So, to be frank, I believe that the dignity of the Chinese people must not be trampled on by those who worship foreigners and fawn on foreigners."
The impassioned speech drew continuous applause from the people around him. Someone stood up to support him and pointed at the male translator and said, "I just heard you and the foreigner making fun of him for being a country bumpkin. Look at how servile you are. It's really shameful."
Once one person stands up, more people will come out to help fight.
Zhai Xiangdong had a better impression of the girl in front of him. He was profit-driven, but he also found it particularly annoying to see his own people being servile to foreigners.
After the crowd quieted down, he said solemnly, "Comrade, rest assured, I will have someone take over her job. As for whether she will stay or go, we will make a decision after the investigation is thorough, but she will definitely not continue to hold such an important position as the front desk. In the future, we will also strengthen the training of our staff to ensure that we will not judge people by their appearance. In addition, thank you for your advice and understanding. In this way, I will give you a 50% discount on your accommodation fee."
Gu Mingyue deliberately said, "Manager, we won't stay here for just one or two days, at least a week, or even longer. Are you sure you can afford it?"
Zhai Xiangdong said modestly, "I do have this ability."
If you don't take advantage of an opportunity, you'll miss it. I didn't take it anymore. "Then I'd rather obey you than be respectful."
The most embarrassed people at the scene were the male translator and the foreigner. They were angry and scared. Zhai Xiangdong turned around and apologized, "You two, all the suites here are fully booked. Only the standard rooms are left. If you agree, I will check you in right away. If you don't like it, you can only look forward to visiting next time."
Yangcheng Hotel is the best hotel here, so naturally they don't want to look for another place.
Knowing that he would not get any good result at the moment, he could only swallow his anger and agree. However, he secretly glared at Gu Mingyue, obviously telling her that this matter was not over yet.
Zhai Xiangdong frowned slightly and deliberately arranged them on floors that were farther apart.
It's just that enemies often meet on a narrow road. When they were taking the elevator, they happened to be together because of Gu Mingyue and Bai Fenglai's family of three.
The male translator snorted, and the foreigner cursed directly in English, "China pig."
Gu Mingyue's expression froze and she looked at the other person, but the person opposite her was still unrestrained.
She raised the corners of her mouth, and recalled some heroic gestures she had seen in movies and TV dramas before. Then she began to gesture towards them, muttering to herself.
The male translator was okay. After all, the country has been resisting feudal superstition for so many years. He didn't quite believe it and thought the other party was being mysterious.
Foreigners are different. They have always had different opinions about China's mysterious power and they believe in it without a doubt.
Therefore, it took only a second for this person to go from being stunned to being terrified. Especially when Gu Mingyue pointed at him twice in the air and said in a deep voice, "Your doom is coming soon..."
Suddenly, the elevator made a dinging sound, which frightened the foreigner so much that he broke out in a cold sweat.
Gu Mingyue walked out and turned back to challenge him, "Enjoy it."
Bai Fenglai asked in surprise, "You also know Taoism?"
Gu Mingyue laughed softly and said, "It's scary. What was it like just now? Wasn't it very stylish?"
Gu Laoliu heaved a sigh of relief and said, "Oh my god, it's so weird to me. You made it look so real."
Gu Mingyue chuckled, "Just wait, that foreigner will scare himself to death."
She said she was waiting, but how could she, who holds such a grudge, wait overnight...
Bai Fenglai's family of three stayed in one room, Gu Laoliu and Li Dayong stayed in one room, Sun Shugao and Liu Gaiwa stayed in one room, and Guanglei and she stayed in one room.
After being tired for so many days, I asked everyone to take a shower and rest for half a day before going out for a walk tomorrow.
After Guanglei fell asleep, Gu Mingyue thought about what the two people had just said about going to eat after putting down their luggage.
So she packed up and went upstairs, dodged the staff and ran to the roof. When the two of them turned the corner outside the hotel, she took out a large bucket of water from the space and poured it directly down.
Then he went downstairs quickly, bypassing the people. When the two were cursing, he appeared behind them silently, "Oh, I haven't practiced for a long time. I thought I was rusty, but I didn't expect it to come true so soon. Haha, it seems that you are in water trouble this time. I wonder what will happen next time? How about fire trouble?!"
The male translator pointed at her and said, "It must be you who did this. I'm going to report it to the police."
Zhai Xiangdong came over to help, "This gentleman must have misunderstood. I just came down from the rooftop, and there is no trace of water there. And judging by the amount of water on you, it must be at least a bucket. Even a man would not be able to hold it steady in that position, let alone this thin woman. Even if she is strong, it is impossible for there to be no trace of water. If you two don't believe me, you will know it at a glance."
The foreigner was at a loss at this time, shouting, "I'm not going out, I'm staying in the hotel, I'm not going anywhere..."
