章節 144: Chapter 144 A Wasted Opportunity
Chu Yuxuan recalled that during his last visit with Chu Zhiqing, the security didn't specifically report the membership card level. But this time, the mention of the red card was pointed out. What could be the meaning behind that?
After receiving the membership card, the two walked through the gate and along a cobblestone path. Halfway down, two elegant greeters in cheongsams came out from the main hall to greet them.
"Welcome, Mr. Chu!"
Following the greeters' lead, Chu Yuxuan didn't head to the main hall's reception desk but directly took the elevator to a presidential suite on the seventh floor.
It seemed the highest level of service was indeed something special.
After seating them, the greeters left without saying a word.
As Chu Yuxuan was wondering what was happening, there was a knock on the door. In walked a young woman — the same one who had been with Situ Jingyao when she gave Chu Yuxuan the red card last time.
Seeing Chu Yuxuan, the woman seemed surprised to find him as the guest. She paused for a moment, a mysterious smile flashing across her face before she spoke in a sweet voice, "Mr. Chu, what a pleasure to meet you!"
Chu Yuxuan lit a cigarette and got straight to the point, "Where's your manager? I have something to discuss with her."
With a somewhat gossipy expression, the woman smiled, "So early in the morning, Mr. Chu, what urgent matter do you need to discuss with my manager?"
Chu Yuxuan simply nodded without offering further explanation.
"Well…" The woman looked troubled. "My manager hasn't arrived yet. I'm afraid you'll have to wait."
Chu Yuxuan smirked and said, "Could you call her and tell her I want to discuss something about 'Ink and Wash Painting' with her?"
"Of course!" the woman nodded and clapped her hands. Two seductive, scantily clad young girls, no more than 20 years old, entered the room. Their pure and delicate faces couldn't hide their worldly air.
"Mr. Chu," the woman said with a smile, "these two girls just joined the Red Mansion recently. They're both university students. If you find them appealing, they can accompany you and your guest for a relaxing bath. If not, I'll find someone else for you."
The fourth brother stared blankly at Chu Yuxuan with no expression.
Chu Yuxuan sighed, "Why are you looking at me? I didn't arrange this..."
Frowning, he turned to the woman and said, "There's no need. Just bring us some tea."
"They'll prepare the tea for you," the woman smiled, pausing before adding, "and they'll obey all your commands. They're very well-behaved."
"Forget it, there's really no need. All of you can leave," Chu Yuxuan said calmly, "and don't forget to call Situ Jingyao."
The woman giggled, "It seems this is your first time on the seventh floor, Mr. Chu. Let me explain — the service here works differently. Everything is provided by the princesses. If you insist on not having them, not only will they not be able to serve you, but they'll also have their wages docked."
As soon as she finished, the two girls moved closer, looking at Chu Yuxuan pitifully, pleading, "Mr. Chu, please choose us. We promise to make you happy."
The two girls' coquettish tones left Chu Yuxuan feeling a bit dizzy. Anyone with a weaker will would probably have lost control by now. Just based on their looks and figures, they were undoubtedly top-tier beauties, and to make matters worse, they were so young, full of vitality.
With things said to this point, Chu Yuxuan didn't want to waste more time. He casually agreed, again reminding the woman to call Situ Jingyao.
After leaving the room, the woman's smile turned mocking. Shaking her head, she muttered, "The famous playboy of Jiangcheng, pretending to be upright? Hypocrite! Your father was far more straightforward than you."
She muttered as she headed to the top floor.
Having stayed up late drinking with an important guest the previous night, Situ Jingyao was still asleep in her room on the top floor. Hearing a knock, she sat up groggily, leaned against the headboard, massaged her temples, and said, "Come in."
The woman entered with an odd expression. "Sis, guess who's here?"
Situ Jingyao, feeling parched, pointed to the water dispenser and asked, "Who?"
The woman handed her a cup of water, smiling, "Chu Yuxuan, here just to see you."
At the mention of his name, Situ Jingyao froze for a moment before smiling slightly. After taking a sip of water, she remarked, "So eager, showing up first thing in the morning."
The woman was puzzled. "Sis, did you know he was coming? Did you two arrange this?"
"Not exactly," Situ Jingyao replied, "but I knew he'd come to confront me eventually."
"Confront you?" The woman grew more confused. Suddenly, she remembered seeing bandages on Chu Yuxuan's forehead and neck and asked, "Sis, I noticed he had some injuries. Could it be… related to you?"
"Injured? Badly?" Situ Jingyao's eyes showed a hint of concern.
"Not badly, just some bandages on his head," the woman said, pointing to the corresponding spots on herself.
Situ Jingyao pondered for a moment, downing the rest of her water. "Did you place him on the seventh floor?"
"Yeah," the woman said, eyes gleaming with mockery, "he's probably having a good time by now… You wouldn't believe it, but he was pretending to be all proper, refusing the girls at first. What a hypocrite."
"Maybe he didn't find the ones you arranged appealing," Situ Jingyao laughed. "Don't forget, his company is full of beautiful actresses, and his wife is the number one beauty in Jiangcheng. He's got high standards."
"Hah! I still think Zhao Yanan isn't as pretty as you."
"Flatterer…" Situ Jingyao continued massaging her temples, clearly in some discomfort. "Let him enjoy himself for a while. I'll see him in an hour."
The woman noticed the smile lingering on her sister's lips and remarked, "Sis, ever since Chu Yuxuan visited the Red Mansion, you've been acting strange. Every time he's mentioned, you smile. When I told you he was hurt, you even looked worried… Could it be that you really have feelings for him? What happened between you two before? I'm so curious."
Situ Jingyao shot her a glance but didn't explain. "Go back to work. I'm going to catch a bit more sleep; my head hurts."
An hour later, Situ Jingyao had finished getting ready. She stepped out of her room wearing an exquisitely tailored cheongsam. Women who wear cheongsams tend to be confident in their figures, but for Situ Jingyao, confidence was unnecessary. Her full chest, narrow waist, and long, slender legs were a testament to her stunning, natural beauty.
She took the elevator to the seventh floor, sashaying confidently towards the suite where Chu Yuxuan was staying. She knocked on the door.
After an hour, that playboy should've had enough fun, right?
A princess opened the door. Seeing that it was Situ Jingyao, she quickly bowed her head, "Good morning, Manager."
Situ Jingyao noticed the princess was fully dressed and found it odd. Shouldn't she be in a bathrobe by now? Just then, Chu Yuxuan's voice echoed from inside the room, "I win! Pay up!"
Situ Jingyao couldn't help but chuckle as she stepped inside, where she found Chu Yuxuan sitting proudly at a mahjong table. One of the princesses, seeing her enter, quickly stood up and respectfully greeted her, "Good morning, Manager."
Looking at Chu Yuxuan's smug face, Situ Jingyao shook her head with a smile, "Mr. Chu, you really are wasting resources. I gave you two beautiful women, and here you are playing mahjong with them?"
Chu Yuxuan responded nonchalantly, "Hey, together they owe me 12,000 yuan. Should I add it to your tab?"
The two princesses exchanged confused glances. In all their time in the business, they had never encountered a guest who came here to win money from them. Was he crazy?
"Alright, put it on my tab," Situ Jingyao chuckled, then glanced at the two princesses and motioned for them to leave.
