374: Quickly change cars and hotels

“That's true. When the truth comes out, everything will be clear.” Shi Yuer said sadly, “Back then, I even went to beg those harmful lackeys, but they all spoke high-sounding nonsense about handling things officially and how they couldn't do anything!”

“Okay, I'm leaving. You don't need to see me out.” Liu Xiaolin said, glancing outside to confirm there was no one there, then quickly left.

Fifteen minutes later, Liu Xiaolin appeared at the Yuhai Hotel, driving a blue, eighty-percent-new car with a local license plate.

The doorman opened the car door and saw that Liu Xiaolin had switched to a beat-up car. His eyes widened in surprise: “Sir, this is...?”

Liu Xiaolin thought that his hundred-yuan tip seemed to have backfired, making a doorman remember him. It seemed he couldn't stay here either. He might as well check out immediately.

He glanced at the doorman helplessly: “I can park it myself. You don't need to help me.”

Seeing this situation, the doorman seemed to understand immediately: “It looks like this guest is a poor guy. The woman who came with him that day was the rich lady.”

He smiled, unsurprised: “Okay, Sir.”

Liu Xiaolin hurried upstairs, packed his luggage, and went to the front desk to check out. Since it was already afternoon, the front desk lady kindly reminded him: “Today's room fee has already been deducted. We won't refund the room fee if you check out now.”

Liu Xiaolin said hastily: “No need for a refund. Just process it immediately.”

Seeing how easy the guest was to deal with, the front desk lady naturally smiled and processed the checkout immediately. If another guest checked in tonight, this suite would earn double the room fee.

Liu Xiaolin carried his luggage out of the hotel, got into the car, and checked into a nearby cheap inn. The room fee was one hundred and eighty yuan per night.

“Hmm, this kind of inn is more fitting for a purchasing manager's identity. I didn't think too much when I first arrived.” After Liu Xiaolin entered the room, he looked around. Besides a large bed, the room only had a bathroom separated by a glass partition.

After putting down his luggage, he checked his watch. It was almost six o'clock: “I need to hurry to the Yindu Seafood Restaurant. Let me check the address first.”

Just as he was thinking, his phone rang. He glanced at the caller ID; it was a local number: “Could it be Han Ruoyu rushing me?”

He pressed the answer button and said hello. As expected, he heard Han Ruoyu's anxious voice from the other side: “Manager Liu, why haven't you arrived yet? We're all here.”

“Oh, I'm sorry, Minister Han. I just finished my business and am about to head out,” Liu Xiaolin said.

“Alright, then hurry over. Call me when you arrive, and I'll come down to pick you up,” Han Ruoyu said and hung up the phone.

Liu Xiaolin checked his phone. The Yindu Seafood Restaurant was very close, only a ten-minute drive. It seemed that both hotels and restaurants were quite concentrated in the bustling area.

Ten minutes later, Liu Xiaolin drove the rented car to Yindu. Before he even got out of the car, Han Ruoyu's call came again: “Have you arrived? I'm waiting for you at the entrance.”

“I'm here. I'm looking for a parking spot,” Liu Xiaolin said while sticking his head out the car window and waving at Han Ruoyu, who was standing at the entrance.

“Come on, I'll take you to park,” Han Ruoyu walked over and got into the passenger seat.

“Ah? Don't we need to find a parking spot?” Liu Xiaolin asked in surprise.

“We don't need to look. Yindu has specially reserved several parking spots for us. Just listen to my directions. Turn right up ahead,” Han Ruoyu said. “This car of yours is quite beat up. How many years have you had it?”

“Hey, my car is in Kunhe City. This is a car I just rented after coming here,” Liu Xiaolin said with a smile.

“No wonder. I was wondering why you were driving a car with a local license plate, haha, so it's rented,” Han Ruoyu said with a laugh.

However, his image of Liu Xiaolin was greatly diminished in his heart. He originally thought he knew a lot and should be very capable, but he didn't expect him to be a small Manager who rented a car. Had he praised this person too much in front of Uncle and General Manager Xiang? Had his brain short-circuited at the time? x33xs.com

But he thought that tonight was just about treating Liu Xiaolin to a meal, and it was normal to treat a client to dinner, so he felt relieved.

Liu Xiaolin noticed that Han Ruoyu's expression was different and understood that his car had played a significant role. But he remained calm, as if he hadn't noticed anything.

“Is it this way?” Liu Xiaolin asked.

“Yes. Do you see those empty spots near the road in the parking lot? Those are our exclusive parking spots,” Han Ruoyu said proudly. “Even if we don't come, no one dares to park here.”

“It seems the Yindu Seafood Restaurant takes great care of our Haizhe Technology,” Liu Xiaolin said with a smile.

“What kind of face does Haizhe Technology have? It's all my Uncle's face, okay!” Han Ruoyu said. “The big brothers all around here have to listen to my Uncle.”

“General Manager Han is that impressive!” Liu Xiaolin said after parking the car.

“Of course. My Uncle's construction company is the largest company in Yuhai City. No one dares to cause trouble at our construction sites. The workers are all obedient,” Han Ruoyu said. “Anyone who dares to cause trouble will be casually dragged out and beaten up by the big brothers nearby.”

“Then does anyone still dare to work at your construction sites?” Liu Xiaolin rolled his eyes inwardly.

“Of course they do, because besides us having work, other construction companies can't get work locally unless it's work our family doesn't want to do that gets leaked to others,” Han Ruoyu felt as if this was a matter of course.

“Oh, is that so?” Liu Xiaolin didn't want to continue the conversation. He couldn't believe that Han Xiaoguo and his group were so lacking in principles.

“Let's go. Our private room is on the second floor. My Uncle and General Manager Xiang are already waiting for you,” Han Ruoyu said as they walked.

The two quickly arrived at the private room. Upon entering, they saw that it was actually a table for twenty people.

“Hello, General Manager Han, hello, General Manager Xiang. I'm late, I'm sorry. I was delayed by some business. I'll fine myself three cups later,” Liu Xiaolin said. “This private room is quite big. There are only four of us, but we booked such a large room. It's a bit wasteful.”

“It wasn't booked. This is our exclusive private room. Whether we come or not, this private room is ours,” Han Ruoyu continued proudly.

“Yes, we are regular customers here, so the Boss thinks highly of us and specially reserved a private room for us,” Han Xiaoguo was much more reserved.

“Hurry and sit down. Don't just stand and chat,” Xiang Guangming urged everyone to quickly take their seats. “Manager Liu is indeed a little late. We've already ordered the dishes. We didn't ask what you like to eat, but we ordered a few of our local specialty dishes.”

“I'm really sorry. I didn't expect a small matter to take so long,” Liu Xiaolin said, pretending to be annoyed.
