Chapter 426: The wealthy Zeng Mingming
"While I was just chewing on a chicken drumstick, I took a look at the surrounding hotels. I think Xunyi Hotel is good! It's close, just a ten-minute taxi ride away. The reviews are good too, and apart from the price, there are almost no disadvantages."
Jiang Duoduo said this as she picked up the canvas bag in her hand and poured the garbage inside into the trash can outside.
"As long as the environment is comfortable, it's fine. It's a bit pricey, though! We rarely go on road trips. If it's no problem, I'll just take a taxi!"
"Wait! I have a question!"
Just as Zeng Mingming took out his cell phone to hail a taxi, Zhu Xiaoxiao raised her hand and said there was a problem.
"what?"
Jiang Duoduo and Zeng Mingming looked at Zhu Xiaoxiao at the same time.
"I just looked up the room rates at Xunyi Hotel. A standard room costs 588 yuan per day, not to mention the better rooms. The price is a drawback for me!"
"The price is indeed a bit high. Xiaoxiao, where do you think we should stay?"
Jiang Duoduo had been poor before, so she could understand Zhu Xiaoxiao's concerns.
In fact, when Jiang Duoduo said that Xunyi Hotel was nice, she was planning to pay for Zhu Xiaoxiao's room as well, and didn't want Zhu Xiaoxiao to spend any money.
But since Zhu Xiaoxiao said so, Jiang Duoduo and Luckin can just name a hotel where she and Mingming can stay.
"This one……"
When asked by Jiang Duoduo, Zhu Xiaoxiao felt a little embarrassed to answer.
Because the hotels she looked at were far away from the scenic spots, and the environment and facilities were very average.
The only advantage is the cheap price, a double room is only 188 yuan per night.
"Duoduo, how about you and Mingming stay at Xunyi? The hotels I've seen are all quite far away, and the facilities are average. I'm not as picky as you are. Honestly, if I brought a tent with me, I could just find a place to camp."
"That won't work! We're all three traveling together, why do we need to stay in separate hotels? It's only a few hundred bucks! I can just pay for it!"
When Zeng Mingming heard Zhu Xiaoxiao say that they wanted to live separately, he was the first to object.
Didn’t they agree when they were taking photos in the desert that they would have delicious food together in the evening, lie in bed together to edit photos, and she and Jiang Duoduo would also watch Zhu Xiaoxiao’s live broadcast together.
How could Zhu Xiaoxiao want to share a hotel with her and Duoduo just for a few hundred dollars? How could she think of that!
"I... then I'll go all out and stay at the Xunyi Hotel. But Mingming, we have a deal: I'll pay for the room myself! You may be rich, but I can still afford over five hundred. It's just... I'm a little reluctant!"
Zhu Xiaoxiao gritted her teeth and agreed to stay with them at Xunyi Hotel.
It's a rare opportunity to meet two friends I get along with while hiking, so I'm happy to spend a little more money. At worst, I can save the money back later.
"Xiaoxiao, it's a deal! I'll treat you to a delicious meal tonight!"
Zeng Mingming smiled and started hailing a taxi on his phone.
Seeing that there was no disagreement about staying in the hotel, Jiang Duoduo said she would go and pick up the checked luggage.
"Oh my God! Duoduo, if you hadn't told me, I would have forgotten that we also have a travel bag."
"It's okay! I just need to remember it! You can take a taxi first, and I'll get the bag. It'll be quick."
After Jiang Duoduo finished speaking, she ran towards the luggage storage area in the scenic area.
"Alas... Duoduo is still reliable. My brain is really not good sometimes."
Zeng Mingming was complaining about himself to Zhu Xiaoxiao while taking a taxi.
"When you get older, you tend to forget things sometimes! I often lose things too!"
Zhu Xiaoxiao responded casually.
During her hike, she lost her pot, socks, spicy strips, and once she almost lost her cell phone.
"Uh...Xiaoxiao, what are you saying? I'm only 24! How can I be considered old?"
Zeng Mingming frowned. Zhu Xiaoxiao's EQ... Is she really not going to offend anyone when she does live broadcasts? She can't even beat around the bush when she speaks...
"Huh? You're only twenty-four! I thought you were thirty like me! Sorry for calling you old!"
Zhu Xiaoxiao looked at Zeng Mingming and said apologetically.
"My face... everyone says it looks a bit like a baby face, but why do you think I look thirty?"
Zeng Mingming's face was full of depression.
After hearing what Zhu Xiaoxiao said, she began to wonder if she really had a baby face.
Just as Zeng Mingming took out a small mirror to look at her face, the car she had booked arrived.
Coincidentally, Jiang Duoduo was also carrying two travel bags and coming towards Zeng Mingming and the others.
Since the distance was relatively close, Jiang Duoduo and the other two got in the car and the driver told them they were heading to Xunyi Hotel not long after.
"If we had known it was so close, we would have walked over!"
After getting off the car, Zhu Xiaoxiao stood at the door of the hotel and said depressedly.
Although the taxi fare was only ten yuan, and Zeng Mingming paid for it, Zhu Xiaoxiao still felt that she had lost out. It wasn't a long distance to walk here.
"No, no, I can't move at all!"
Zeng Mingming waved to Zhu Xiaoxiao and walked into the hotel lobby first with his travel bag on his back.
“I don’t want to leave even if I can take the bus!”
Jiang Duoduo smiled faintly at Zhu Xiaoxiao and followed Zeng Mingming to the hotel lobby.
"Well...you two rich people...you really don't know how hard money is to earn!"
Zhu Xiaoxiao followed behind them, chattering like an elder.
"Hello, do you have any standard rooms available?"
Zhu Xiaoxiao said she wanted to stay in the cheapest standard room, so Zeng Mingming asked for her first.
"Sorry, we don't have any standard rooms. We still have deluxe king-size rooms and top-tier suites."
The front desk clerk said with a smile.
"Ah? Are standard rooms so popular? Then what are the prices for king-size rooms and premium suites?"
Zeng Mingming basically doesn't consider standard rooms when staying in a hotel. His first impression is that the bed is too small.
She could only tolerate such a small bed in the school dormitory, but she couldn't tolerate any other bed.
But Zeng Mingming didn't expect that the standard rooms at Xunyi Hotel would be so popular!
"Hello, the Deluxe King Room is 998 yuan per day, including buffet breakfast for 2 and a fruit platter in the room. The Premium Suite is 5888 yuan per day, including buffet breakfast for 6 and buffet lunch and dinner for 3."
"The buffet dinner is a deluxe seafood buffet that our hotel charges 588 yuan per person. If you have a large group, staying in a top-tier suite is a good deal."
When the front desk clerk introduced the top suite to Zeng Mingming, Jiang Duoduo and Zhu Xiaoxiao also walked to the hotel front desk.
Jiang Duoduo felt that the top suite was just right for the three of them, as they could have a luxurious seafood buffet for three in the evening.
"Even though the top suite is so expensive, I can't even make more than 5,000 a month!"
"Duoduo and Mingming, how about we get a deluxe king-size room together? That way we can split the price and it's more acceptable. You two can sleep on the bed, and I can just sleep on the floor."
Unexpectedly, as soon as Zhu Xiaoxiao finished speaking, a discordant voice sounded behind them.
"Oh my God! Are there still three people sharing a king-size bed room these days? This is the first time I've seen someone so poor staying at Xunyi! I remember there are a lot of small hotels around the station that cost around a hundred yuan per room! Zhu Xiaoxiao, that's the one for you!"
