"Scan the QR code! Scan the QR code! Scan the QR code!"
Almost simultaneously, three mobile phones were shoved onto the payment terminal. Sun Xiaoman reacted quickly, being the first to tear the payment slip off the machine and rushing towards the stairwell.
Now is the time to race against time. The short-haired girl and the girl in the pure white swimsuit followed closely behind, neither daring to lag behind even a step. If they were late, and Meng Yuwei changed her mind at the last minute, or that Young Master Li changed his mind, their 860 yuan for the expedited medical examination would be wasted.
The nurse at the blood-drawing window watched calmly as three scantily clad young women, panting from running all the way, simultaneously extended their arms through the blood-drawing window.
She worked at the First People's Hospital of Luhai City for five years and had seen this scene too many times. Every year during peak season, batches of beautiful young women would rush in with urgent medical examination forms, have their blood drawn, and then rush out like a whirlwind, their destination invariably being those private docks where luxury yachts were moored.
She skillfully inserted an injection into each of her three arms, applied cotton balls, and then gestured towards the waiting area to indicate where they should go to report their results. "You can pick up your report at the self-service machine in half an hour. If you miss your turn, it will be invalid."
The three of them, clutching the cotton balls on their arms, sat on plastic chairs in the waiting area, and no one spoke.
Yesterday's silver needle scraping treatment, which supposedly lasted only three seconds, and all those sarcastic remarks still echoed in our ears, but no one was in the mood to bring them up again.
Jealousy is fine, but to miss an opportunity just to save face is truly foolish.
Although they didn't know what Li Xiao's family did or how much money they had, they could get a general idea from the video Meng Yuwei showed them. Their assets were at least A10.
For rich young men of this caliber, even a small amount of food they casually display is enough to feed them to their hearts' content.
Moreover, it was definitely not Meng Yuwei's idea to invite them. They had been together for four years in college and still didn't understand Meng Yuwei. She usually gave them scraps that she didn't care about, but now that such a delicious piece of meat was placed in front of her, how could she not eat it all by herself?
Since Meng Yuwei invited them, what does that mean? It means that the rich young man is interested in them.
In the awkward silence, Sun Xiaoman was the first to lose her composure. She touched up her lipstick with the hand that wasn't having her blood drawn, muttering, "Twenty minutes have passed already. It takes at least fifteen minutes to get from the hospital to the private dock at Atlantis by taxi. If we're late, that woman Meng Yuwei will definitely use it as an excuse to cause trouble."
"Shut your mouth!"
The short-haired girl was fixing her hair in front of the phone camera. She had never expected such an unexpected discovery today, so she hadn't even washed her hair, which was a mess. She was currently thinking of ways to fix it.
"Once we're on the boat, everyone keep your eyes peeled. Nobody mentions what happened on the beach yesterday. If Meng Yuwei can get something out of him all by herself, surely the three of us combined can't appease this rich kid?"
The girl in white nodded repeatedly, silently pulling her already low-cut neckline down even further.
The more vicious their words were yesterday, the more obsequious their bodies are now.
Faced with the absolute temptation of money, that ridiculous sense of self-respect is nothing at all.
With three minutes left in the countdown to pick up the report, the three of them stuffed their temporary medical records into their bags and jogged toward the self-service printer in their high heels.
The machine produced three expedited medical examination reports much slower than usual. Sun Xiaoman grabbed her report, glanced at the row of negative test results in the test item column, and finally felt relieved after an hour of anxiety.
The short-haired girl and the girl in white also received their reports one after another. The three of them looked at each other and breathed a sigh of relief. This time they had to stick together; one of them alone would definitely not be as good as Meng Yuwei.
The taxi sped along the coastal highway in Luhai City, the coconut groves and seascape rushing past the window as the three people inside made their final preparations.
Sun Xiaoman readjusted the straps of her leopard-print bikini twice, ensuring every inch of her curves was displayed at the perfect angle. The short-haired girl repeatedly checked her makeup in front of her phone's front camera, touching up her nose repeatedly with powder.
The girl in white took out a bottle of perfume from her bag, sprayed it on herself four times, then thought for a moment and sprayed it on the other two as if distributing the last ammunition to soldiers about to go into battle.
As the car turned into the entrance of the private dock, all three of them simultaneously looked through the windshield at the three-story pure white yacht moored at the end of the pier.
The ship was larger than any they had seen in the short videos, its streamlined hull gleaming with a pearly matte finish in the sunlight, and the flags on the masts fluttering in the sea breeze.
The hydraulic diving platform at the stern has been lowered, and several crew members in uniform are conducting final checks before setting sail.
"Could this be the yacht we're going to build next?!"
Sun Xiaoman clung to the car window, her mouth agape, "This is the first time I've ever seen such a big yacht."
"Azimut Grande 35 Metri."
As the one with the best English among the three, the short-haired girl stared at the row of chrome letters on the ship's hull, read them aloud, and then searched on her phone. The search results on the screen made her gasp.
"This ship is an original import from Italy. There are no more than three ships of the same class that can be rented in the entire Luhai City. The daily rental fee starts at six figures, not including fuel and crew costs. And look at that hydraulic platform at the stern—that's been modified. The original ship didn't have this feature. The cost of this modification alone could probably buy an apartment in the provincial capital."
What she didn't know was that the Azimut Grande 35 Metri, named Poseidon, was booked by Li Xiao a week in advance through the Atlantis Hotel's private butler.
As one of the most popular seaside resorts in China, Luhai City has always had a shortage of top-class yachts, especially during peak season. For example, a super-luxury yacht like this, which is 35 meters long and equipped with five suites and a full set of audio-visual entertainment system, often requires a month's advance booking.
However, the Atlantis butler team managed to secure the booking from a reclusive tycoon who had canceled his trip at the last minute, thanks to the hotel's extensive network of contacts in the Deer Bay area.
The captain and first mate on board are long-term exclusive crew members of the hotel. They are extremely discreet and never inquire about or reveal the identities of guests. Their only task is to ensure that every sea voyage is an impeccable experience.
As for the food and beverages on board, they are delivered directly from the hotel via cold chain a day in advance, all to provide passengers with the most comfortable experience.
