"Two guests, this way please."

The proprietress in kimono led Jian Shenxiu to the depths of the hotel, until they reached a secluded room in the corner, raised her hand and opened the wooden door, then turned around and said to the two with a smile :

"The tea bed in the house has been prepared for the two guests. If you need anything else, just call the internal number inside and tell us."

"Thanks."

Jian Shenxiu looked around while speaking. This hotel is the most traditional Japanese-style building. The main body of the house is made of wood, and the materials are only wood, stone, and paper. The building has almost no walls, only sliding windows and partitions are used as partitions. There are far-reaching overhanging eaves and wooden corridors at the entrance. Lush vegetation is planted in the courtyard outside, and carved stone animals are placed inside. A bluestone path spreads out in between, and fences are erected on both sides of the stone path—that is The direction the three of them came from.

Along the way, there is a sense of simplicity everywhere in this hotel. The bamboos on both sides of the road cast mottled shadows on the stone wall of the yard. Walking on the stone road, the running water in the pond next to the road is tinkling. into the crevices of the clothes. For a moment, people have the illusion of being in a trance in the mountains and forests.

"There is still such a place in the upper city."

Seeing that Shenxiu raised his brows slightly looking at the scene in front of him, he looked around at the scene in front of him with a bit of surprise in his tone. Looking back at the proprietress in front of her, she nodded.

"I'm surprised."

He was really surprised, the courtyard wall here was tall, from inside the courtyard he could only see the sky far away, and he could only vaguely glimpse the large forest planted outside the courtyard wall. The water in the pond is gurgling, like a stream from a mountain stream. Being in it, you can even vaguely feel the unique coolness of the mountain wind passing through the forest. Looking around, there is really an illusion of being in the deep mountains and ancient temples.

However, at this moment, the answer that reason told Jian Shenxiu was almost the opposite of what he felt. In fact, the location of this hotel is definitely not remote. It is almost adjacent to the tourist-filled St. Paul Beach in the northern part of the upper city. In terms of distance, it is less than five kilometers to the Oedipus Theater in the center of the upper city. Even if you want to go to the Venus Tower in the center of the city, it's only half an hour's drive at most.

Shangcheng District is the place where Xue Jianze's rich and powerful gather, and every inch of land is expensive. Even though I had learned about it in the materials before I came here, seeing Shenxiu with my own eyes now, I still couldn't help but be shocked that there is such a wide garden in this kind of place.

"This is Uptown, and it's the place to cater to all the needs of our guests."

The proprietress just showed a warm smile when she heard the words. Even if he is judged by Renjian Shenxiu, he has to admit that the proprietress is a rare beauty. Originally, she was in her early thirties, which was a bright age, but now she looks more charming with her lowered eyebrows and humble attitude.

When she was talking, she bowed slightly to Jian Shenxiu, her mature body was wrapped in an Apo blue kimono, and only half of the back of her neck was exposed when she lowered her head, as if she took Jian Shenxiu's words as a compliment. Thank you.

"Many people in Xuejian Ze are far away from their homeland, so there is a need for this. Our existence is only to comply with the ideas of our customers."

What do the guests think? Regal thought it. Or you can change the word, for example - the superior.

Seeing Shenxiu's expression moved slightly, he looked at the respectful proprietress in front of him. Suddenly, this tone and attitude seemed familiar. However, that feature was too weak, so that he couldn't grasp the thought in his mind for a while, and couldn't think of where he had seen such a tone and demeanor.

[Uptown is a place to satisfy all the ideas of customers (high-ranking people)]

He carefully observed the kimono and eyebrows on the other party, silently thinking about the other party's words in his heart. After replacing the word "guest" with "higher-ranking person" in his mind, he suddenly realized where he had seen such an expression of modesty and stability on the surface, but in fact the expression and tone of words were full of pride.

Thinking of this, a gleam of red light suddenly flashed in his eyes, and then, as if he had discovered something, a sharp edge appeared in his pupils. Staring at the proprietress in front of her, she suddenly said coldly:

"You are from the Asahi Group... This hotel belongs to the Asahi Group."

"...!"

In an instant, the atmosphere in the courtyard changed suddenly. The sound of the wind seemed to have stopped, and a chilling feeling quietly permeated among the three of them. The silent movement of Markesia's footsteps and Jian Shenxiu's stance formed a gesture of horns, and his two hands had quietly hidden behind his waist at some point.

"you……!"

The sudden piercing made the landlady's hands clenched tightly in her sleeves. She straightened her waist from the bowed posture and looked at Jian Shenxiu in front of her with a face full of shock, her beautiful eyes were full of surprise, and she couldn't imagine where Jian Shenxiu saw the flaw.

In fact, seeing that what Shenxiu needs is not an answer, there is a frightening coldness in his eyes, and he looks at her condescendingly. Those red eyes are so sharp that people dare not look directly at them, as if everything in his body All the concealment is pierced by that sight.

"As expected of Mr. God."

The body of the proprietress who looked at the scarlet eyes was stiff for a few seconds, but after only a moment of astonishment, the proprietress suddenly burst into a smile again. said with a nod.

"Sure enough, I still can't hide it from you."

As a result, the air in the arena began to flow again, and the proprietress dispelled the chilling atmosphere in the arena without moving her expression. She was unexpectedly straightforward, directly acknowledging the relationship between the hotel and the Asahigumi, and she didn't seem to have any intention of hiding it. The calmness of that appearance made even Shenxiu feel a little surprised. Looking at the woman in front of him, he didn't know what her intentions were.

"But, I'm really curious—"

She's a beautiful woman, and clearly knows how to use her to her advantage. After admitting it, he changed his attitude almost immediately, and tilted his head slightly towards Jian Shenxiu, his eyes were like silk, charming and charming. Even the voice added a bit of resentment, as if complaining why he was so incomprehensible. For a while, people even have a sense of intolerance that "I did something wrong".

"I asked myself that I didn't make any big mistakes. You just came here. How did you know this?"

"Just cheating on you casually."

Seeing that Shenxiu was unmoved, he glanced at her and immediately withdrew his gaze. After a simple perfunctory sentence, he walked towards the house. The sharpness of the soul that seemed to pierce the skin and look directly at it also disappeared. The proprietress slightly straightened her stiff body under the clothes, only feeling that the cold sweat had soaked the clothes behind her.

"Hehehe, it's really interesting to see Mr. God."

Regarding Jian Shenxiu's answer, she just sneered in her heart. This hotel has been here for many years, if it is really that simple, it will be scammed. This matter has long been an open secret.

"Miss also explained in advance."

Seeing Jian Shenxiu's attitude, the proprietress behind him showed a submissive expression again. It's just that she still had something to say, and after seeing Shenxiu approaching, she suddenly opened her mouth to add.

"If Mr. Jianshen pointed out this matter, there is no need to hide it, just tell you directly."

[Even if you see it, it won’t matter, these are just things we prepared in advance for you to see]

"..."

Seeing that Shenxiu understood the meaning of this sentence, he walked in front, and turned his head to look back at the proprietress behind him. Looking at her submissive expression on the inside but showing a faint hint of arrogance, the corners of her mouth curled into a slight arc.

"Oh, very good."

But he didn't say much, just commented softly, then turned around and led Marchesia into the house. Then, in the sight of the proprietress—the door was closed with a click.
