Heavenly Dragon Doctor Son-in-Law-Chapter 114 - 115: I’m Offering 1 Billion!
"Call your cousin immediately and have him get out here to see me."
"I’ve recently received reports of suspected illicit transactions at the Longquan Hotel."
"Your establishment is to cease operations for rectification! Men, go in and search the place!" Zhou Hongying commanded, her expression incomparably icy.
Upon hearing this, the woman collapsed to the ground in fright.
This is bad! Zhou Hongying is furious! If my cousin finds out, he’ll flay me alive! The Longquan Hotel is one of the top hotels in Jiang City, so there must be some shady dealings going on. Usually, Director Zhou just turns a blind eye. But now that she’s angry, a search will absolutely ruin us! The hotel might even get blacklisted. Selling me wouldn’t even begin to cover the losses!
"Director Zhou, Mr. Qin, it was my mistake! I was blind to not recognize your importance! Please, spare me! I’ll do anything!" the woman scrambled over to Qin Long. Utterly disregarding her image, she kowtowed, banging her head on the ground. THUMP. THUMP. THUMP. It was the picture of utter servility.
"Cut the nonsense," Zhou Hongying said, her arms crossed and her face cold. "Call your cousin right now. I want to speak to him personally."
"Yes, Director Zhou! I’ll call him right away!" The woman immediately dialed her cousin’s number.
In the lobby of the Longquan Hotel, Zhou Hongying gauged Qin Long’s intentions, sensing he didn’t want to escalate the situation. After personally exchanging phone numbers with him, she tactfully made her exit. It was clear that Qin Long had business with the hotel’s owner, so she knew her presence was no longer needed. Now that she had made her stance clear, the hotel’s owner certainly wouldn’t dare to neglect Qin Long.
Since the woman’s cousin was temporarily unreachable, the hotel’s Vice President was summoned to handle the matter.
"You must be Mr. Qin," the Vice President said, greeting him with a fawning smile, as if meeting a long-lost relative. "May I ask what business brings you to our Longquan Hotel?"
"Did Wang Ming book the Sky Garden?" Qin Long got straight to the point, his expression serious.
"That... yes," the Vice President hesitated for a moment but decided not to hide the truth.
"I’m booking the Sky Garden. Here is one hundred million." Qin Long slapped a Purple Crystal Card down on the table.
This was the most exclusive Purple Crystal Card in Jiang City. One needed a net worth of at least fifty million just to be eligible to apply, and it also required significant power and influence. As the Vice President of the Longquan Hotel, she recognized the card instantly. A single glance was enough to tell her that Qin Long was no ordinary man.
And he even had Zhou Hongying personally intervene for him. He’s definitely a VIP of the highest order.
"Mr. Qin, if you wish to use our facilities, we can offer you a thirty percent discount," the Vice President said, covering a smile with her hand. She personally poured Qin Long a cup of tea and asked gently, "For which date would you like to book the Sky Garden?"
Qin Long furrowed his brow. Did this Vice President not hear a word I said? I specifically asked about Wang Ming first, which obviously means I want to book it for the day he reserved!
After a brief pause, Qin Long stated coldly, "September nineteenth."
"September nineteenth..."
That day again. First it was Wang Ming, then some mysterious and powerful woman, and now Qin Long? Why is everyone fighting over that specific day? Is something major happening then?
"I’m very sorry, Mr. Qin, but that date has already been booked," the Vice President said with a slight frown, shaking her head.
"What?" Qin Long was displeased. They won’t even yield for one hundred million? This is unexpected! Is this Vice President out of her mind? The Sky Garden usually costs ten million at most. Besides, Zhou Hongying is backing me. Refusing now is a clear slap in the face to her.
"Mr. Qin, how about the eighteenth or the twentieth? Even a weekend would be fine, and I would be willing to personally cover the cost of decorations. The nineteenth has already been taken by—"
Before the Vice President could finish, Qin Long’s resolute voice cut her off.
"That day must be mine."
Wang Ming was planning to host the Tang Family’s fiftieth-anniversary celebration there, where he undoubtedly intended to propose to Tang Xuewu. If I can’t secure that day, everything will be meaningless. Besides, that was the day Xuewu took me in. For me, it signifies a rebirth, a salvation. Three years have passed in the blink of an eye. Before that day, Tang Xuewu was the Tang Family’s most beloved princess, adored by countless suitors. Later, because of me, she was ostracized by the Tang Family and stripped of her privileges in the clan’s inner circle, suffering ridicule and scorn. On this day, I will propose to Tang Xuewu, make her my wife, and present her with a magnificent gift. After all, she has sacrificed far too much for me. Everything will be born anew on that day, like a phoenix rising from the ashes. It must be that day.
"Mr. Qin, it’s really not possible..." the Vice President’s brow furrowed deeply.
"Wang Ming paid ten million, didn’t he?" Qin Long stared at her, his tone leaving no room for argument. "How about this: two hundred million. The day is mine. One hundred million of that can be used as personal compensation for Wang Ming."
The penalty for breach of contract is ten million at most. There’s no need for an entire hundred million, the Vice President thought. If it were really possible, who wouldn’t want to make an easy ninety million? But I’m afraid I’d earn the money but not live long enough to spend it.
"Mr. Qin, please don’t be angry. Just listen to what I have to say..."
"Three hundred million." Qin Long cut her off again without the slightest change in his expression, as if another hundred million meant nothing to him.
The Vice President’s heart began to pound in her chest. This Mr. Qin is truly as rich as he is domineering. I want to agree, but the owner gave a strict order.
"Mr. Qin, please don’t make this diffic—"
"Five hundred million!" Qin Long raised his offer again, giving her no time to react. He knew that three hundred million could buy two five-star hotels, but what was money compared to the woman he loved?
"Mr. Qin, it’s really not—"
"One billion!"
At this, the Vice President was so shocked she could barely breathe. She was completely at a loss.
One billion! That’s enough to last several lifetimes! I really want to just agree, take the money, and disappear! One billion! That’s one billion! Just to book the Sky Garden for a single day! Even after paying the cancellation fees for Wang Ming and that mysterious woman, there would still be over nine hundred million left over. And even with a thirty percent discount for Mr. Qin, we’d still clear seven hundred million! Seven hundred million in a single day! That’s thirty million an hour! Over five hundred thousand a minute! Eight thousand per second! Who could possibly make money at that speed?
But the Vice President remembered her boss’s warning. The super-powerful woman had specifically said she wanted to humiliate Wang Ming. Her boss had told her that angering Wang Ming would result in a severe financial loss for the Longquan Hotel. But angering that woman could cost them their lives. The Vice President didn’t dare to disobey.
After a moment of deep thought, she clenched her fists, sighed helplessly, and gave a dismissive wave of her hand.
Seeing the Vice President so foolishly refuse his offer, a chill emanated from Qin Long.
"While I’m not short on cash, there’s a limit to everything. One billion is a staggering sum. Do you take me for a fool with more money than sense?" Qin Long’s fingers tapped slowly on the tabletop.
An immense, cold pressure filled the air, causing the Vice President to shiver.
He’s terrifying! Who would have thought a disabled man on a cane could exude such a fearsome presence? No wonder even Zhou Hongying took the initiative to curry favor with him.
"Mr. Qin, please don’t be angry."
