104: Section 104

"Phew, that was refreshing! Spending Qin Hao's money is just so satisfying."

Kong Junhao let out a long sigh, feeling all the recent fatigue vanish.

After noting down their employee badges, Kong Junhao stood up.

Before leaving, he couldn't resist indulging himself one last time.

This drew a chorus of playful complaints from the two female masseuses.

"I'll request you two again next time, and we'll extend the session then."

But compared to Kong Junhao's carefree demeanor, Qin Hao's situation was incredibly awkward.

After borrowing from everyone he could, Qin Hao only had a little over a thousand yuan in his card.

Compared to the several thousand yuan bill, this amount was far from enough.

Qin Hao wanted to leave, but as soon as he opened the door, a Waiter stood there, smiling at him.

"Where's the restroom? I need to use it."

"Sir, there's a restroom inside the private room."

The Waiter kindly reminded him.

"Doesn't this old man know there's a restroom in the private room? The problem is the window in that restroom is too small."

Qin Hao cursed inwardly.

However, since the Waiter had said that, he naturally couldn't go out to use the restroom anymore.

But... how to leave now became a big problem.

And the Waiter, faced with Qin Hao's series of puzzling actions, eventually reported it to the hotel owner.

Soon after, the owner pushed open the private room door and walked in.

"Sir, did you enjoy your meal?"

"It was alright, just a bit sticky."

"Since you've finished, how about settling the bill first?"

Hearing this, Qin Hao's face fell.

He wished he had forced his way out the window earlier.

Now, running wasn't an option, and neither was staying.

It was unbearable!

"Sir, you're not trying to dine and dash, are you?"

Seeing Qin Hao's expression, the restaurant owner was already prepared.

He gave the Waiter a look, and the Waiter immediately understood.

The Waiter subtly closed the door.

"Boss, how about I stay and wash dishes?"

Qin Hao forced a smile.

He was afraid the owner would call the police; if he got arrested, he'd probably be locked up for at least a few days.

"Heh heh, I think you look like a dish."

The restaurant owner almost burst out laughing at Qin Hao.

If it were one or two hundred yuan, letting Qin Hao wash dishes for a day would be acceptable.

But several thousand yuan couldn't be solved by simply washing dishes.

"So what do you want to do?"

"Either pay the money, or I'll call the police. You decide."

The owner stared intently at Qin Hao, afraid he would run off; this was not a small sum.

If Qin Hao escaped, he would have worked for ten days for nothing.

"Brother, I only have a thousand yuan on me right now. If I had the money, I'd definitely give it to you."

Qin Hao's face was bitter; if Kong Junhao hadn't been robbed, he wouldn't be in such an embarrassing situation.

"Heh heh, no money, and you still dare to eat so much? I'm giving you half an hour to raise the money.

Otherwise, I'm calling the police!"

"No, no, no, let me try to figure something out, okay?"

Seeing the owner staring intently at him, Qin Hao felt a bit helpless.

Then he took out his phone and began his last struggle.

He opened his mouth, shook his head, then nodded.

Loan failed!

Because Qin Hao had borrowed too much before.

Now, no matter which online lending platform he tried, they wouldn't approve him for another loan.

"You kid, have you sorted it out yet?"

The restaurant owner looked at Qin Hao's actions, somewhat confused.

This silly kid couldn't possibly think that just by opening his mouth and nodding, he could pay for the meal, could he?

"Immediately, immediately."

Qin Hao saw one online loan after another fail, and he was as anxious as an ant on a hot pan.

If someone could lend Qin Hao five thousand yuan right now, he would be grateful to that person for a lifetime.

Half an hour quickly passed... Qin Hao had even tried borrowing from classmates he had never spoken to before.

The result was always the same: "Are you sick?"

Followed by a red exclamation mark.

In this day and age, never mention borrowing money.

"Time's up. Have you raised the money yet, kid?"

The owner had lost his patience, and his tone became aggressive.

"Boss, how about I give you a thousand yuan now, and I'll give you the rest tomorrow?

I can leave my ID card and student ID here as collateral, okay?"

Qin Hao looked at the owner, a hint of pleading in his eyes.

"You're still a student?"

Hearing that Qin Hao was still studying, the owner's tone softened a bit.

"Alright then... but don't even think about running away."

"Yes, yes, yes, I definitely won't run."

Seeing the owner agree, Qin Hao nodded repeatedly.

Then he handed his ID card and student ID to the owner.

"Wait!"

Just as Qin Hao turned to leave.

The owner shouted, stopping him.

"Can you explain to me why your ID card and student ID belong to two different people?

Do you think I'm particularly easy to fool?"

"Brother, listen to me, I..."

However, the restaurant owner was no longer listening to Qin Hao.

Feeling his intelligence being rubbed into the ground, the owner immediately took out his phone and dialed the police.

Then he recounted the events.

"I just forgot to bring money, didn't I? You snobbish dog!"

Seeing the owner call the police, Qin Hao's anger flared, and he immediately pointed at the owner's nose and cursed furiously.

The owner didn't bother with Qin Hao; this was a civilized society, and he didn't believe Qin Hao would dare to hit him.

As long as Qin Hao dared to make a move, he would lie on the ground and extort him for a hundred thousand or so.

He had done such things before.

It was precisely by relying on this special skill that he was able to open a two-hundred-square-meter restaurant.
