I run a hotel in Huangshan

Chapter 55 Overt and covert fighting
"Hey, Peng Ruilin, this is what I want to buy, don't fight with me!" Lu Siqing stood in front of him, fearing that he would have a chance to pay.

"I didn't compete with you. You bought what was in her hand, and I bought what was in her basket!" Peng Ruilin pushed him away, walked to the little girl, and winked at her.

Although the girl was only sixteen or seventeen, she was already at the age of falling in love. Seeing such a handsome older brother winking at her, her face flushed for a moment. Moreover, she felt that this older brother looked very familiar, as if she had seen him somewhere before, so she couldn't help but hand over the payment QR code.

Peng Ruilin took the opportunity to scan it and paid a price that he thought was very reasonable. Of course, it was also a price that made the little girl's eyes light up.

The flower girl looked at Peng Ruilin gratefully and said, "Brother, you don't need so much money. I'll give it back to you!"

Peng Ruilin smiled gently and said, "No, it's a bit cold at night. Let's go home early after selling these flowers."

Lu Siqing wanted to continue arguing with him, but after hearing his words, he changed his mind instantly. If he bought flowers just for Han Qingyue, he wouldn't let him, but he was so caring that he paid more just to let the little girl go home earlier.

However, although he stopped arguing with him, he still scanned the QR code and paid a sum far exceeding the price of the roses.

The little girl was about to say something when Lu Siqing stopped her. He smiled and said, "It's okay. Go home quickly and be careful on the road."

With tears in her eyes, the little girl bowed deeply to Lu Siqing and Peng Ruilin, then left, looking back every few steps.

In a rare moment of unison, the two men handed flowers to Han Qingyue. Han Qingyue smiled, took the bouquet in one hand, held it in her arms, and walked towards the park exit.

"Qingyue, do you think my flower is more beautiful?" Lu Siqing immediately followed and asked while jogging.

"Lu Siqing, you are so childish. You even want to compete with me in this!" Peng Ruilin laughed right after him.

"Your flowers are all very beautiful, I like them all! Is that okay?" Han Qingyue was at a loss whether to laugh or cry.

"Han Qingyue, why are you so unprincipled! It's obvious that the one I bought looks better!" Lu Siqing was not convinced.

"Han Qingyue, ignore him. Isn't he childish?" Peng Ruilin was helpless.

When the three of them returned to the hotel, Feng Guotao had already prepared dinner. Knowing his boss's friend was coming, he had someone open a bottle of red wine. Unable to refuse the hospitality, Han Qingyue joined in for a drink.

After dinner, Peng Ruilin returned to his room. Lu Siqing helped Han Qingyue, who was a little dizzy, back to the suite and helped her put the flowers in the vase.

Lu Siqing poured a cup of hot water for Han Qingyue. Seeing that it was getting late, he came up to her and asked with a smile, "Qingyue, I think you seem a little unwell. How about I stay and take care of you?"

"What's wrong with me? I'm fine!"

Han Qingyue asked back in confusion, not understanding what he meant, but with Lu Siqing's wicked smile, she instantly understood.

Peng Ruilin lived next door. Seeing Lu Siqing enter the suite with her, she must have started to daydream. Lu Siqing wanted to stay, just to make him misunderstand and make him uncomfortable.

Han Qingyue didn't want to talk any more with this childish man, so she stood up and pushed him towards the door.

"I'm sleepy and just want to sleep. Go back quickly!"

"Qingyue, let me accompany you!"

Han Qingyue waved his fist and made a threatening gesture. Lu Siqing didn't dare to provoke him and quickly left in disgrace.

As Han Qingyue slammed the door shut, Peng Ruilin's voice came from behind Lu Siqing: "Mr. Lu, I feel a little unwell. How about you come and keep me company?"

Lu Siqing rolled his eyes at him and headed towards his room. In the corridor, Peng Ruilin's frantic laughter could be heard.

The next day, Han Qingyue woke up to the loud ringing of her cell phone. She reached for the phone with sleepy eyes and put it to her ear to answer: "Hello——"

"Miss, what time is it now? Why haven't you gotten up yet?" Li Qiufeng's disdainful voice came from the other end of the phone. Han Qingyue opened her eyes and glanced at the time on her phone. It was already past nine o'clock.

"I drank last night and I feel sleepy." Han Qingyue said.

"I saw the news. The big star Peng Ruilin is with you, right? Tell me, have you done anything you shouldn't have done?" Li Qiufeng chattered, and his words sounded very noisy to Han Qingyue, who was still not awake.

"What can we do? Don't use your habits to speculate about me!" Han Qingyue did not forget to tease him.

"Okay, I won't tease you anymore. Let's get down to business. I'm going to Huangshan in two days. You can pick me up at the airport then." Li Qiufeng's tone was a bit coquettish.

"We'll see how the situation is when the time comes. I may not have the time. Okay, no more words, I have to get up." After saying that, she hung up the phone without waiting for Li Qiufeng to say anything else.

After washing up, Han Qingyue went to the restaurant on the first floor for breakfast and found that Lu Siqing and Peng Ruilin had already arrived.

After breakfast, Han Qingyue didn't want to stay in the room anymore and suggested going to Lin City for a walk. The two men happily agreed.

The three of them went back to their rooms, changed their clothes, and gathered in the lobby. They were accompanied by Peng Ruilin's assistant and bodyguard, Ashan.

Han Qingyue's destination was Lin City's famous snack street. Foodies are always very specific in their choices.

"Han Qingyue, you are really a foodie." Peng Ruilin exclaimed.

"What's wrong? What's wrong with being a foodie? I just like foodies!" Before Han Qingyue could say anything, Lu Siqing defended her.

"Haha, what a coincidence, I like food too!" Peng Ruilin calmly walked to Han Qingyue and gently put his arm around her shoulders.

Lu Siqing domineeringly pushed his arm away, preventing him from getting close to Han Qingyue.

Peng Ruilin smiled, didn't argue with him, and went to the hotel entrance to take a taxi.

Han Qingyue didn't want to cause trouble for the hotel, so she didn't ask Feng Guotao to arrange a car. The four of them got into a taxi together. To avoid an argument, Han Qingyue sat in the passenger seat, and the three men squeezed in the back.

In less than an hour, the taxi stopped at the entrance of the snack street. Han Qingyue was in a good mood as soon as she got off the car. Grilled skewers, duck necks, hot pot... various plaques were arranged in an orderly manner, and the aroma wafted over her, teasing her taste buds.

"Siqing, I remember you said the skewers here are the best?" Han Qingyue asked.

A funny smile appeared on Lu Siqing's face. This girl in front of him was undoubtedly a top foodie. He couldn't even remember when he said the skewers here were delicious, but she actually remembered. However, this snack street is famous throughout the country, so the food here must be delicious.

After thinking for a moment, he said, "Yes, the skewers are delicious, and the other snacks are good too. Besides, it's very lively here. Besides the locals, there are also tourists like us who come here for its reputation."

"Lively? This is clearly noisy!" Peng Ruilin laughed out loud, "Qingyue, are you sure you're the general manager of Qingxin Hotel and a rich lady? Why are you so down-to-earth? You love to eat these!"

Regardless of what he said, Han Qingyue walked forward quickly, her movements light and graceful, like a cheerful bird. Lu Siqing and Peng Ruilin hurried to follow.

"Rui Lin, I feel like someone is watching us!" Ashan's voice came from behind Peng Ruilin.
