The hotel manager, hearing Qi Heng speak that way, instantly understood that Qi Heng and Xu Hao were at odds. His complexion towards Qi Heng imdiately soured, and he scoffed, "This is an order from above. If you have any problems, go ask our Wei family's higher-ups!"
He made a "please" gesture towards Xu Hao and said, "Mr. Xu, this way, please."
"Yay! Ti to eat!"
The morning's rushing around had clearly left Anna famished. Thinking that she was finally going to eat, she beca instantly elated, appearing to everyone like a silly and naive young girl.
Xu Hao nodded slightly and said, "Then I'll be in your care."
The hotel manager was imdiately flattered. He hadn't expected Xu Hao to be so young and, instead of being arrogant, to be so approachable. This, to the man who was used to all kinds of situations, was sowhat disconcerting.
However, with his excellent professional deanor, he personally led them upstairs.
Murmurs spread among the crowd.
"Alas, I thought the one who shouted the loudest would be the most formidable, but who would have thought that the one who never spoke would be the true hidden bigshot!"
"Right, he didn't say a single word, yet he managed to get the hotel manager to bring out the special private room, which is reserved only for VIPs and the higher-ups of the Wei family!"
"You all know nothing. This is called being low-key, subtly luxurious with depth. Without making a fuss, but invisibly he smacked Qi Heng in the face. That kind of showing off is the most satisfying."
"Invisible arrogance is the most deadly!"
Qi Heng stood in place with clenched fists, listening to everyone's comnts. His face turned alternately green and white, looking extrely unsightly.
Wang Wei said on the side, "Brother Heng, don't overthink it. I'm sure this kid is just a nobody. Just look at his clothes, they're all cheap street stall stuff. As for the girls' clothing, I don't know much about won's brands, so I can't tell, but they're definitely not that expensive.
Think about it, people judge by clothes, horses by their saddles. Although my family's situation is ordinary, I would still spend a few thousand on an outfit to make a statent, but this kid is wearing street stall rags. You can imagine how poor his family is, so we don't have to be afraid of him."
While speaking, Wang Wei kept an eye on Qi Heng's expression. He knew that Qi Heng was definitely not over Anna, just like he wasn't over Jiang Xuezhun. However, if he relied solely on his own abilities to get Jiang Xuezhun, it'd be a pipe dream. Only by pushing Qi Heng to continue with his ways would he have a chance with Jiang Xuezhun.
Hearing Wang Wei's words and thinking about what he had just seen, Qi Heng realized that Wang Wei seed to be right. He imdiately nodded and said, "You're right! Xu Hao must be from a poor family, but he's managed to latch onto the Wei family and even holds such a high status, surely because he helped an important mber of the Wei family.
But what can a poor country bumpkin like him help with? I think probably he just happened to help Elder Master Wei or soone else out of a difficulty, and the Wei family, grateful, began treating him as an honored guest."
The more Qi Heng thought about it, the more he felt he was right. He imdiately said, "Follow them up! I can't let go of two top-grade beauties just like that. It's just the Wei family, am I really scared of them? Since they've opened their private room, I'll just go as a senior."
Wang Wei was instantly overjoyed. Without Qi Heng's help, he would never have had the chance with such exceptional beauties.
The two ran off, and under the astonished gazes of the crowd, they made their way up to the top floor's private room.
The door to the private room was open. Just as the hotel manager had led Xu Hao and his party there, Qi Heng and Wang Wei caught up.
Seeing the two, the hotel manager imdiately asked, "Qi Heng, what are you doing chasing after us?"
Qi Heng cleared his throat with a light cough and smiled, "Today was supposed to be on , I'm the one treating them to a al, of course, we should be the ones to pay, so we ca chasing up here to arrange paynt."
The hotel manager said, "I'm sorry, but Mr. Xu is a respected guest of our Wei family, so all his expenses at any of our Wei family-operated venues are on the house."
Qi Heng was montarily stunned upon hearing this. Just what was Xu Hao's background, for him to enjoy such high-level treatnt by the Wei family? L*o*ve thi*s s$to@r*y?# S%ho!w y!o*u.r s$uppor%t^ on M&9 VL@E@MPY-R.
Could it be that he saved Elder Master Wei?
Qi Heng had no idea of Elder Master Wei's strength, let alone how Xu Hao, if he were an ordinary person, could have managed to save Elder Master Wei.
However, his eyes darted around, and he smiled, "Everything on the house? That's great, since we're all classmates, I suppose I can also eat here for lunch and have it on the house, right?"
The hotel manager was about to refuse, but Jiang Xuezhun laughed and said, "Tell , Young Master Qi, if even you aren't paying for a al, how would that be fitting for your status? Are you really concerned about such a trivial amount of money for a al?"
Qi Heng imdiately puffed out his chest, exuding extre pride as he said, "Who are you kidding, why would I care about that kind of money?"
