By the time the two of them got back in the car and reached the mountaintop B&B Ma Qingqing had booked, Liu Zhizhong was feeling a bit sulky.
Liu Zhizhong even had a stern face, looking at Ma Qingqing, "Hey, my Little Sister Qingqing, why must it be like this?"
Ma Qingqing spread her hands, a sly smile flitting across her lips, yet her expression was harmlessly innocent, "Brother Zhizhong, I didn't have a choice! Look...this mountaintop B&B is among the top ones on Taohua Island. It just happens to be the weekend, the prices are very, very high, but it's still a scarce commodity. Raising prices at a time like this is similar to the stock market..."
After her explanation, it seemed almost flawless, alas...
The room Ma Qingqing managed to book was, astonishingly, an ultra-luxurious single room with a king-sized bed that cost 1200 yuan.
