Chapter 71.2

Jing Li, Fang Zhenzhen, and Chen Wenbin were assigned to support the Banquet Hall No. 1. Jing Ran had made arrangements with the HR supervisor to ensure that the three of them would work together.

The Banquet Hall No.1 was hosting a large wedding banquet with a hundred tables, and Jing Li and the others would be assisting the waiters in moving tables and chairs. The tables for the banquet were quite large, requiring three people to carry and place them at the venue.

Fang Zhenzhen said, “I saw on the hotel’s official WeChat account that they have been offering discounts recently. One table for the banquet costs 5,000 yuan. If they set up a hundred tables, that would be half a million yuan, and that doesn’t even include the cost of drinks. It takes hundreds of thousands of yuan just to have a wedding banquet. They must be really wealthy.”

Jing Li chimed in, “If they’re setting up a hundred tables, it’s probably not for ordinary families, right? It’s likely for business purposes, and they must know a lot of people in the business world.”

Chen Wenbin said, “Zhenzhen, if you like this place, let’s have our wedding banquet here in the future!”

Fang Zhenzhen rolled her eyes and replied with a disgusted tone, “Who said I’m going to marry you!”

Jing Li looked at the two of them speechlessly. They had been arguing for a while now, but still hadn’t reconciled. Previously, Fang Zhenzhen had thoughts of getting back together, but it seemed that Chen Wenbin had done something foolish again, angering her. And now she still hadn’t calmed down.

The hotel industry has many young people, and Chen Wenbin was afraid that Fang Zhenzhen would be approached by other guys during her internship. That’s why he sought Jing Ran’s help to let him intern together with Fang Zhenzhen.

When Chen Wenbin’s family heard that he wanted to work at a hotel during the summer, they were shocked. Chen Wenbin was the only boy among his peers in the family and had always been spoiled by his elders. He never had to do any household chores and only focused on studying. Suddenly, he said he wanted to work at a hotel during the summer, and his family thought something had happened to him. His parents were worried that he would suffer and tried to persuade him to change his mind. However, he believed that enduring some hardship was worth it to win back Fang Zhenzhen. Jing Ran, the heir of a chain hotel group, had also worked at various positions during many summer vacations. Chen Wenbin, on the other hand, was the son of a small construction business owner, which made him seem too pampered.

Jing Li felt that Chen Wenbin’s way of pursuing a girl was really lousy. When a girl is clearly angry, he should reflect on his own mistakes, make corrections, and ensure that he won’t repeat them in the future. While Fang Zhenzhen was still angry, he was daydreaming about their future together.

Come on, you have to win back your girlfriend before you can daydream. It’s pointless to daydream if you haven’t won her back. Who can guarantee that your girlfriend won’t run off with another man?

Because the No.2 and No.3 Banquet Halls had events as well, there weren’t enough waiters. The employees responsible for the Banquet Hall No 1 had returned to the hotel two hours early today, and it took them the entire morning to set up a hundred tables and chairs. They hadn’t even laid out the tablecloths or placed the utensils yet.

Just in one morning, Jing Li felt completely exhausted and didn’t have the energy to stand up anymore.

Lunch break was half an hour, and Jing Li, Fang Zhenzhen, and Chen Wenbin went to the cafeteria to eat. She sent a WeChat message to Jing Ran, seeking comfort.

[Jasmine]: I’ve been moving tables and chairs all morning, I’m so tired. I need a hug and a kiss, please comfort me!

[Ranran]: Come to room 2109.

[Jasmine]: Why? I still need to eat. After lunch, I want to go to the staff rest area and take a nap, or else I’ll be exhausted in the afternoon.

[Ranran]: Come over here first.

Jing Li put down her phone and patted Fang Zhenzhen’s shoulder, saying, “Zhenzhen, you go ahead and eat. I have something to do.”

“Hey, senior, don’t go!” Fang Zhenzhen reached out towards Jing Li, who was walking away. If Jing Li left, she would have to face Chen Wenbin alone! She was still angry with him and didn’t want to be alone with him.

Jing Li took the elevator to the 21^st floor and found room 2109. She pressed the doorbell.

Jing Ran opened the door wearing a white bathrobe, with a white towel hanging around his neck. His body emitted a pleasant scent of shower gel, and there were water droplets on the ends of his hair. He stepped aside to let Jing Li in.

After Jing Li entered, she asked, “Why are you dressed like this?” She caught a glimpse of the luxurious interior decoration and exquisite furniture in the room. It truly lived up to its five-star hotel status. Moreover, the balcony of this room faced the river, making it a particularly good room.

The coffee table in the room had several plates of delicate Chinese dishes, as well as bowls and chopsticks.

Jing Ran used the towel to dry his wet hair and said, “I went on an errand this morning and got all sweaty. I just finished showering.”

“Tsk, you even booked a room to take a shower. How pampered.” Jing Li teased. She had also sweated a lot from moving tables and chairs in the morning and planned to take a shower in the staff rest area during her lunch break.

“This is actually my room.” Jing Ran walked over and sat on the sofa in front of the coffee table. He wasn’t wearing anything under his bathrobe, and when he sat down, he instinctively spread his legs slightly.

Jing Li saw something between his legs and quickly covered her face with both hands, anxiously saying, “Ah… why aren’t you wearing underwear!”

Jing Ran closed his legs and used the hem of his bathrobe to cover his thighs, saying, “It’s fine now, come and have some food.”

Jing Li put down her hand and saw that Jing Ran had only briefly covered himself with the bathrobe. She said, “No, you must put on underwear quickly. What if it’s exposed again later?”

Jing Ran pursed his lips, looking at Jing Li, and said reluctantly, “Anyway, you’ll see sooner or later.”

Unable to tolerate his dirty jokes, Jing Li covered her ears and said, “Ah… I’m not listening, I’m not listening, I’m not listening… Put on your underwear quickly!”
