29: Secretly pleased
The Marriott Hotel's main entrance features a marble portico with automatic revolving doors.
Xiao Ze and his two companions entered the lobby with the ushers.
Water features flow in tiers on both sides.
The 10-meter-high ceiling gives people a sense of openness and spaciousness.
Below is a uniform marble floor, so shiny it reflects light like a mirror.
Above is a giant crystal chandelier, its shimmering light illuminating the entire lobby in a magnificent golden glow.
The concierge asked Xiao Ze if he had booked a room.
Xiao Ze gave his name and said that it was reserved by someone surnamed Ma.
Upon hearing this, the two ushers immediately bowed even lower, their attitude becoming even more respectful.
A hint of fawning even appeared on his face.
Without even checking at the front desk, I respectfully said:
"Dear Mr. Xiao, your room is our hotel's only presidential suite, which costs 1.8 RMB per night. Please follow me."
The concierge escorted Xiao Ze and the other two into a private elevator.
I pressed the button to go to the 22nd floor of the hotel.
Then he bowed and exited the elevator.
The elevator doors closed and the elevator began to ascend.
Li Xiwei couldn't help but complain:
"What's wrong with that Manager Ma? We told him it was just a lunch break, why did he still book the presidential suite for 1.8 yuan a night?"
"What a waste!"
The elevator arrived at the floor, and as soon as the doors opened, a well-dressed middle-aged man was already waiting outside.
He faced Xiao Ze, bowed deeply, and respectfully spoke:
"Dear Mr. Xiao, I am your personal butler in the presidential suite. Please follow me."
After saying that, he quickly turned around and led the way.
Out of curiosity, Xiao Ze and Li Xiwei couldn't help but secretly observe their surroundings.
The entire floor was very quiet, without a single sound.
Even though it was a corridor, the floor was covered with thick, soft, high-end wool carpets.
When you step on it, even through the sole of your shoe, you can still feel the softness and comfort on your feet.
The corridor is lined with many vibrant green plants to purify the air.
Xiao Ze and Li Xiwei glanced at it briefly.
The entire floor had fewer than ten rooms.
There are also two venues that resemble banquet halls.
The personal butler swiped his card to open the door, stepped aside to make way, and bowed respectfully, saying:
"Dear Mr. Xiao, the hotel's executive lounge offers complimentary 24-hour dining."
"The hotel also provides you with a Mercedes-Benz S400 and a BMW 740 free of charge, which are available at any time."
"I live in the duty room next to yours. You can call me if you have any problems. I'm on call 24/7."
After saying that, he handed over a gold VIP room key.
Li Xiwei quickly took it.
The three of them entered the presidential suite and briefly looked around.
It was mainly Xiao Ze and Li Xiwei who were watching.
Bai Jingyi simply followed Xiao Ze without looking around.
The suite is approximately 300 square meters in size.
A living room, a small dining room, a master bedroom, a study, a western-style kitchen, a master bathroom, and a living room bathroom.
Both the living room and the master bedroom have floor-to-ceiling windows, and the room is fully equipped with amenities.
Both the living room and the master bedroom have ultra-large screen smart TVs of 80 inches or more.
The living room also has a complete set of high-end audio equipment, including speakers, microphones, and a mixing console.
The study contains an Apple laptop and a Lenovo business laptop.
The master bedroom bathroom is the same as Xiao Ze's large apartment in Guangnan Mansion, featuring a smart bathtub and a smart toilet.
Li Xiwei couldn't help but exclaim in amazement:
"No wonder it costs almost 20,000 yuan a night, it's truly luxurious!"
"But I think our big apartment is no worse than this one, and it's much bigger, almost twice the size."
Xiao Ze looked at her with great interest.
Li Xiwei's pretty face flushed, only then realizing that she had blurted out "our family."
Subconsciously turning her head to avoid Xiao Ze's gaze, she stammered:
"Didn't they say there's free food and drinks 24 hours a day? I'll go get some drinks."
After saying that, he ran out in a panic.
Just then, Xiao Ze's phone rang.
As soon as Xiao Ze answered the phone, a very feminine male voice came from the other end:
"Dear Mr. Xiao, I am the VIP Customer Service Director of Chow Tai Fook. You may call me Xiao Zheng."
"My security company and I have delivered your luxury suit to Guangcheng. Could you please send me an address so I can send it to you immediately?"
Xiao Ze added him on WeChat and sent him his location.
Xiao Zheng: (Received. We are very close to our destination now, about ten minutes away.)
Xiao Ze used the landline phone by the bedside to notify his personal butler.
Tell him to go downstairs and wait, and that he will bring the Chow Tai Fook people up later.
Li Xiwei ran back again and asked:
What drinks would you two like?
"We have milk, coffee, fresh juice, soft drinks, alcoholic beverages, and bird's nest."
Xiao Ze ordered a latte with sugar.
Bai Jingyi shook her head, indicating that she didn't need anything.
Five minutes later.
As Bai Jingyi watched helplessly...
Even when Xiao Ze needed Li Xiwei to feed him coffee sip by sip, it was still a time when he had to drink it himself.
She suddenly realized something.
I think Xiao Ze must be a super-rich second-generation heir who is particularly particular about extravagance and would spare no expense for it.
From this perspective, as long as she is completely obedient to Xiao Ze, it might still be possible for her to receive 18 billion yuan in a month!
A few minutes later, there was a knock on the door.
The personal butler brought up the Chow Tai Fook staff.
There were a total of five portable safes, but ten guards personally escorted them.
The box was brought into the study.
All ten guards and the personal butler withdrew from the presidential suite.
Director Zheng stayed behind to introduce Xiao Ze to everyone.
He opened the first box, inside which were two exquisitely packaged boxes, one large and one small.
He first opened the large box.
Inside was a women's handbag, primarily pearl white.
The bag's metal parts, design, texture, and stitching all look very high-end.
Anyone who isn't blind can tell at a glance that this handbag is extraordinary and expensive.
Xiao Zheng said, "Mr. Xiao, this is a Hermes crocodile skin Himalayan Birkin bag."
"This is a one-of-a-kind piece worldwide, with a market value of 680 million, and its value is unlikely to depreciate for at least ten years."
Bai Jingyi's eyes lit up, and she subconsciously moved closer.
Even a former heiress is like this.
Needless to say, Li Xiwei, the poor but arrogant school beauty, was also a different story.
Her little mouth opened wide unconsciously, and clean, fresh saliva was about to flow out.
A pair of bright, big eyes seemed to grow right onto the handbag, and I couldn't resist reaching out to touch it.
Xiao Ze was secretly pleased to see this, but he didn't show it on his face. He slapped her hand away from his bag.
Li Xiwei glanced at Xiao Ze, then at the handbag.
Her fists clenched instinctively, her face filled with resentment.
Xiao Zheng opened the small box again.
Inside was a gold and diamond bracelet that gleamed with a cool, white light.
Based on the material, this bracelet should definitely give off a sense of luxury.
But strangely,
When people see this bracelet, their first impression is that it is understated and elegant.
Not a "tycoon" in the jewelry world.
Rather, it is a "century-old aristocracy".
Xiao Zheng said, "Mr. Xiao, this is a Cartier Panthère series 18K gold full diamond limited edition bracelet."
"The market price is 580 million. This is the same model worn by the granddaughter of the President of the United States."
