"Who cares if I have money? What can you do about it?"
In his anger, Xue Haoling spoke these domineering words. In this world, money was indeed an incredibly important thing. In such matters, it was natural to compete with financial power. What else was there to compete with?
Upon hearing Xue Haoling's words, a smile appeared on Lü Jingqi's face. It was a confident smile because they were wealthy.
Xiao Lanmei showed a hint of impatience in her expression. Arguing about this matter was a waste of time. She said, "Forget it, it's just one night. It doesn't matter if we stay in the same inn."
After leaving the previous restaurant, the nearest inn was this one. Xiao Lanmei believed that the students from Canglan Academy hadn't intentionally followed them here. Besides, their mentor was not far away, so there shouldn't be any problems.
However, Lü Jingqi persisted stubbornly, "That won't do. They've entangled themselves with us this time. If we agree, where would the face of North Sea Academy be?"
A sense of dissatisfaction rose within Lü Jingqi. She felt that Xiao Lanmei had agreed to let the other party stay because of Bai Li Hongzhuang. As a result, Bai Li Hongzhuang shouldn't stay here anymore!
"Xue Haoling, drive them out!" she exclaimed.
Hearing this, Xiao Lanmei glanced coldly at Lü Jingqi and didn't bother to say more. She went straight back to her room, clearly not interested in wasting time on this matter.
Xue Haoling nodded and another bag of money appeared in his hand. He said, "I'll pay you double the price. Drive them out."
The innkeeper looked at Xue Haoling and Bai Li Hongzhuang with a troubled expression. He didn't know how to decide in this situation!
If he had known earlier, he would have preferred not to do this business today rather than encounter this situation.
"Sir, please don't trouble me. I'm just a small business owner, an ordinary commoner. I can't afford to offend any of you!" the innkeeper pleaded.
However, Xue Haoling seemed to ignore the innkeeper's words and continued, "Triple the price."
Xia Zhiqing and the others exchanged glances, feeling extremely speechless about Xue Haoling's extravagant behavior. This guy just wanted to use money to crush them!
"Hongzhuang, why don't we find another inn?" Zhan Yunfeng couldn't help but suggest.
Xue Haoling and Lü Jingqi wore smug expressions upon hearing Zhan Yunfeng's words. They wanted to make the other party retreat!
They were currently blocked by Xue Haoling and his group, and they couldn't get in for a while. Continuing to stay here would only trouble the innkeeper.
Upon hearing Zhan Yunfeng's words, Bai Li Hongzhuang shocked everyone with a surprising move.
Another bag of money appeared in Bai Li Hongzhuang's hand as she said, "Innkeeper, we're buying this inn."
As soon as she spoke, everyone looked at Bai Li Hongzhuang in astonishment. The faces of Xia Zhiqing and the others couldn't hide their shock.
Now, that was true dominance!
That was true dominance!
What Xue Haoling did earlier was nothing compared to this. Hongzhuang had directly bought the entire inn!
