Xiao Hei saw Chu Tian’s appearance, like a furious lion.
His initially smiling expression turned awkward.
“Uh… Boss, it seems we, uh, can go in now!”
Xiao Hei pointed towards the empty entrance of the Qing Hua Hotel.
From this vantage point, they could see Brother Hua standing on the steps, nodding slightly at Chu Tian.
Upon seeing this, Chu Tian slowly composed himself.
He suddenly changed his mind, deciding to see what the Qing Hua Hotel was up to.
What was the identity of that singer, Jing’er?
Chu Tian then focused his thoughts.
Without saying a word,
He stepped through the entrance of the Qing Hua Hotel.
Xiao Hei followed closely behind him.
The previous awkwardness vanished.
“Boss, boss, we’ve hit the jackpot this time! We can eat so much roast chicken!”
“Roast chicken? When did you become so fond of that?
And do you know how many roast chickens your billions could buy to stuff you silly!”
Chu Tian gave him a stern glare.
Chu Tian was still calculating based on five million per person.
That was why he had mentioned billions.
“Billions? He’s Mr. Chu, underestimating, just now, this brother’s earnings!”
As they spoke, they had already reached the second floor.
Brother Hua happened to overhear Chu Tian’s conversation with Xiao Hei.
“Not billions?”
In fact, Chu Tian had been distracted from the very beginning.
He eventually poured all his attention into investigating the fifth floor of the Qing Hua Hotel.
He was unaware of what happened afterwards.
“370 million, plus 16 billion! That’s enough to buy all the roast chicken in the world, eating it every day!”
Brother Hua said with a smile.
Chu Tian examined him carefully. This man gave him the impression of someone who navigated social circles expertly.
Extremely smooth, that kind of person.
But he didn’t give off an annoying vibe.
Hearing his words, Chu Tian was also shocked.
16.37 billion!
This was no small sum.
He carefully recalled.
Although his soul had been entirely focused on tracking Jing’er.
Some consciousness still remained in his main body.
He suddenly remembered what had happened earlier.
Xiao Hei had colluded with Black Shark to swindle sixteen big shots out of a billion each.
A total of sixteen people.
Adding the scattered individuals from before, five million per head.
This move by Xiao Hei was a huge score!
Chu Tian was even tempted!
Why bother selling gold?
Wouldn’t it be better to just rob people!
As this thought occurred,
Chu Tian instantly thought of a target.
The Huang Corporation…
Yes, with that in mind, he felt it was feasible.
It was time to settle some matters from a past life with them.
He exchanged pleasantries with Brother Hua.
The latter directly led them upstairs.
Chu Tian already knew the route they were taking and the elevators they were using.
When everyone entered the elevator, Brother Hua pressed the button for the fifth floor.
Chu Tian narrowed his eyes.
Going there?
The place he had almost forcefully blasted open earlier.
Let’s see what tricks you have up your sleeve.
As expected, upon reaching the fifth floor, Brother Hua led them directly towards the door that Jing’er had entered earlier.
Chu Tian already knew that there was only this one door on the fifth floor.
Brother Hua entered the password and opened the door.
However, to Chu Tian’s surprise, there was no one inside.
The interior of this room was also made of that special material, which had prevented him from detecting other rooms yesterday.
Brother Hua spoke at this point.
“Please wait here for a moment. Soon, my… boss will personally receive you!”
After saying this, Brother Hua bowed slightly and retreated.
“What? Brother Hua, you have a boss?”
Black Shark was extremely surprised to hear this.
However, Brother Hua did not reply, merely smiling at him.
Then he prepared to open the door and leave.
“Your boss is Jing’er, isn’t she!”
Just as Brother Hua was opening the door, Chu Tian calmly uttered these words.
Brother Hua’s body suddenly stiffened.
He then turned to look at Chu Tian, revealing a hint of surprise.
“Brother Chu, you are indeed extraordinary!”
After saying this, he nodded at Chu Tian and opened the door to leave.
After he left,
Black Shark and Tian Qi, being local natives,
Looked at Chu Tian with surprised eyes, like curious babies.
“Big Brother, are you mistaken! Jing’er is the boss of Qing Hua Hotel?”
It was Black Shark who spoke, he found it hard to believe.
“Hey, Old Hei, are you brain-dead? Brother Hua’s words just now already confirmed it, and you’re still asking Big Brother?”
Although Tian Qi looked at Chu Tian with curiosity, he would never miss an opportunity to taunt Black Shark.
After all, their relationship had been adversarial for so many years.
Even though they were now like old friends,
Those past habits were hard to change.
Black Shark rolled his eyes at being retorted.
He also knew that Brother Hua’s reaction was an admission.
But he couldn’t have imagined that Jing’er was the true behind-the-scenes boss of Qing Hua Hotel.
He had indeed always had unusual feelings for Jing’er.
He also knew that Jing’er might be an ancient monster.
When he was mixing in this triangular area in his twenties,
Jing’er looked the same as she did now.
He had met Jing’er many years before Tian Qi.
He was now 48 years old.
He had reached middle age.
If not for the life of danger in this triangular zone,
He would have long been married with children, perhaps his children would be in high school.
Maybe even graduated from university.
And Jing’er always had the appearance of an eighteen or nineteen-year-old.
More importantly, over the years,
Black Shark had encountered danger several times.
And Qing Hua Hotel had secretly provided assistance.
He had always treated Brother Hua like a brother.
Now that he knew Jing’er was the ultimate boss of Qing Hua Hotel,
His heart couldn’t help but stir with emotion.
Because twenty years ago, when he first met Jing’er, there were some stories involved.
This matter had always been buried in his heart.
Now that he learned of this,
His heart was inevitably stirred!
After waiting for a few minutes with no one appearing,
Everyone sat down.
About ten minutes later,
Chu Tian and the others were chatting.
Suddenly, with a click,
A door within this suite opened.
Everyone turned their gaze towards it.
“Jing’er…”
Black Shark spoke directly upon seeing the person emerge.
Jing’er, who came out now, was not wearing her singer’s attire.
Judging by her hair, she must have just showered.
She still exuded the fragrance of shower gel.
Her body was completely enveloped in a loose, casual outfit.
“Little Shark! Long time no see!”
Jing’er, unlike her appearance when she was singing and performing as a singer in front of everyone.
Before, she had been heavily made up,
Possessing a worldly charm.
Now, without any adornment,
She was as beautiful as Zhang Chengcheng and Chen Yu’er.
“Uh… I’m 49 already! Can you stop calling me Little Shark?”
Black Shark, addressed as Little Shark by this girl who looked eighteen or nineteen,
Felt extremely awkward.
“49? You’re 49 already? Then how old am I?”
Jing’er was also taken aback when she heard this.
She even muttered to herself, tilting her head in thought.
I don’t seem to recall anything.
“Never mind… Let’s talk. Mr. Chu, what do you need me for?”
She changed the subject.
And turned her gaze towards Chu Tian.
