Peerless Immortal Emperor in City

Chapter 688: Just a Piece of Junk Card

"Live together?"

Lu Ziyi's face turned red with shyness upon hearing this.

She had grown up in the Jade Pool of the Tianshan Mountains and had never had any intimate contact with men.

The interactions with Qin Heng these past few days were already her greatest breakthrough.

But, to live together?!

That's simply too shocking; I can't accept it!

"No, no, no!" Lu Ziyi shook her head quickly.

Although the deluxe suite was very large, practically equivalent to two completely separate rooms, they were ultimately only separated by a door. Strictly speaking, it still counted as sharing the same space.

So embarrassing!

"I'll look for another hotel," Lu Ziyi said to Qin Heng. "At most, it will just be a bit further from where the secret realm opens."

"No need." Qin Heng waved his hand and said to the receptionist, "Hotels usually keep some rooms empty on purpose for backup. You should still have backup deluxe suites available right now, shouldn't you?"

He had often traveled before, both abroad and domestically, always staying in high-end hotels, so he naturally understood these things very well.

"It can be done like that?" Lu Ziyi looked surprised, not quite understanding this practice. Having rooms but not making them available... could it be they think they're making too much money?

The Saintess, who had grown up in the Jade Pool of the Tianshan Mountains, didn't understand many things about the human world.

Just then, a tall, handsome man with black hair and yellow skin, but with striking blue eyes, walked in. He happened to overhear Lu Ziyi's words. Seeing her appearance and figure, his eyes lit up, and he walked over.

"Beautiful lady, that's something you wouldn't understand."

The man chuckled, walked up to the counter, and stood next to Lu Ziyi, completely ignoring Qin Heng beside her. He smiled and said, "High-end hotels actually reserve some deluxe suites. They're specially for important customers like myself. Assistant, bring me my Diamond Card."

The receptionist, who had been listless—leaning on the desk with both hands, head down, and barely bothering with anyone—had shown the same attitude when Qin Heng and Lu Ziyi spoke to her earlier.

But upon hearing the words "Diamond Card," she immediately straightened up, seemingly trying to catch the man's attention.

"Honored sir, are you a Diamond Card member?" The receptionist's eyes sparkled as she looked at the man, her face flushed with excitement. She said with eager anticipation, "Gao Siyan, your Hilton receptionist, at your service!"

Her level of respect was extreme, like a servant seeing their master. If the man were to merely beckon with his finger, the receptionist looked ready to rush over to him immediately.

Her eagerness was all too obvious.

However, the man clearly had no interest in the receptionist; his gaze was fixated on Lu Ziyi.

The greed in his eyes was utterly unconcealed.

"Mr. Shen, here is your Diamond Card."

The man's assistant was a tall, seductive Western woman in her twenties with blonde hair and blue eyes. Every movement she made was filled with temptation.

She respectfully handed a membership card inlaid with diamonds to the man.

Meanwhile, she glanced at Lu Ziyi and said meaningfully, "You know, young lady, for us women, judging a man's character is crucial."

With that, she stepped back, no longer intruding on the man.

"I am Shen Qian. Might I have the honor of knowing your name, miss?"

The man smiled at Lu Ziyi, casually flicking the Diamond Member Card in his hand. It was genuinely inlaid with a circle of glittering diamonds; the card alone was likely worth millions.

"No," Lu Ziyi answered curtly.

"Miss, you should take a good look! This is a Diamond Card member of our Hilton Hotel!" the receptionist interjected, her voice a mixture of envy, jealousy, and pity at Lu Ziyi's response.

"Do you have any idea what a Diamond Card member is? This card is reserved for top clients who spend tens of millions annually at our Hilton!"

Spending tens of millions a year just on the hotel meant they were either living there practically every day or making other incredibly expensive purchases. This also indirectly reflected the person's income, which had to be astoundingly high!

At least a hundred million a year!

Otherwise, no one would spend tens of millions just on hotel stays.

An annual income of over a hundred million!

The receptionist gazed at Shen Qian with adoring eyes. That's so much money! His wealth must be astronomical. If I could just get his attention, even once, it would be worth it!

"It's just a trashy card, nothing special." Qin Heng waved his hand dismissively. He had plenty of those Diamond Member Cards; they were all tossed in a storage closet at his Tianhai residence.

"What did you say?! A trashy card?!" The receptionist exploded, glaring at Qin Heng. "Sir, do you realize the owner of that 'trashy card' you speak of has an annual income of at least a hundred million? That's more money than you could earn in several lifetimes, understand? You look young. You should learn more and pay attention. If you don't understand something, it's better to stay quiet than make a fool of yourself and become a laughingstock!"

In the Hilton Hotel lobby, besides the new arrivals, some guests who had already checked in were resting on nearby sofas.

They had all heard Qin Heng's remark and immediately burst into laughter.

"Hahaha! That's hilarious! Did you hear that kid? He actually called Hilton's Diamond Member Card trash!"

"What a poser! He's probably just trying to look rich in front of his girlfriend!"

"He tried to act tough but ended up embarrassing himself! Still, I'm jealous he has such a beautiful girlfriend."

"Jealous my foot! Didn't you see they're getting separate rooms? Obviously, he hasn't won her over. How could a Goddess like her fall for a broke loser like him?"

"He's about to get cuckolded, haha!"

These people were all sneering at Qin Heng, perceiving him as a clueless, poor boy trying too hard to impress.

"Hahaha! Miss, this gentleman with you is quite amusing. He reminds me of a circus clown!"

Shen Qian also laughed, looking at Qin Heng with contempt. He took out a bank card and said to Qin Heng, "Kid, there are three million in this card. Take it and get lost!"

"Mr. Shen, you've got the wrong card. That one's for my allowance; it has ten million in it, you see!" The blonde assistant chimed in, pulling another card from her bag and handing it to Shen Qian. "This is the one with three million."

Then, she pointed at Qin Heng and said to Shen Qian, "Honestly, Mr. Shen, I don't think this broke kid even deserves three million. He might not earn that much in his entire life.

If you ask me, Mr. Shen, just give him thirty thousand. He'd probably be overjoyed, maybe even kneel and kowtow in thanks! Haha!"
