There's nothing wrong with wanting a good material life. It's human nature to desire a good life, so what's mistaken about that? However, materialism, or the 'worship of money,' also has its degrees. In this regard, Du Xiaoya handled herself well; at least, Ye Chen wasn't disgusted by her. If Ye Chen had been disgusted, he would have likely ended things with Du Xiaoya within a few days at most.
Du Xiaoya nodded, then picked up her knife and fork and cut a piece of Kobe steak. Seeing this, Ye Chen smiled slightly and also began eating. It had to be said, the Kobe steak tasted genuinely good, and the garlic Australian lobster was also fine. However, Ye Chen didn't particularly like the French-style pan-fried foie gras, so he gave up on it after just one bite. As for the Ace of Spades champagne, Ye Chen felt it was quite decent. It tasted good, with a light floral fragrance, and a pleasant fruity aroma after taking a sip. It was quite pleasant as a beverage.
After about twenty minutes of eating and drinking, a slight blush appeared on Du Xiaoya's face. She was still quite sober, though she had become more talkative. Seeing this, Ye Chen picked up the phone and asked Andy to have the dining cart removed. After the dining cart was pushed away by the waiter, Ye Chen suddenly noticed that Du Xiaoya, who was sitting on the sofa, was holding a wine glass and staring at him with an adoring, slightly dazed expression. Ye Chen asked in confusion,
"What's wrong?"
Du Xiaoya came over, then hugged Ye Chen and asked,
"You won't abandon me, right?"
"Is she still worried...?"
Thinking of this, Ye Chen raised his eyebrows and said,
"That depends on your good behavior. Also, don't engage in any games out of loneliness."
In relationships like these, some people might seek excitement elsewhere out of boredom or other reasons. Of course, it's not unheard of for someone to be swayed by a handsome man who conveniently appears. Whatever the reason, it didn't matter to him at that moment. What was important was that if Du Xiaoya dared to do something like that, Ye Chen would discard her without hesitation. If conditions permitted, perhaps Ye Chen would even make her regret ever coming into this world. Of course, this was just a hypothetical scenario, but Ye Chen felt the need to state his expectations clearly in advance.
"What kind of 'lonely game'?"
Du Xiaoya was slightly stunned, then came to her senses and said firmly,
"I'm not that kind of person."
"That's good then. Go take a shower."
Ye Chen finished speaking with a smile and patted Du Xiaoya on the back.
"Yes."
Du Xiaoya replied and went to the bathroom. Not long after, the sound of running water could be heard.
The bathroom in the presidential suite was different from those in ordinary hotels; it wasn't the type enclosed by clear glass. So, staying in the living room, one couldn't see anything inside. However, Ye Chen didn't try to peek either. Girls tend to be a little shy about being watched while bathing. There was no need to be so impatient; he could savor the moment slowly later.
Half an hour later, Du Xiaoya, wrapped in a bathrobe, walked out. At that moment, her long, smooth legs, moist shoulders, swan-like neck, and pink-flushed face came directly into Ye Chen's sight. Although covered by a bathrobe, her perfect S-shaped curve was still vividly displayed.
"This figure..."
"This face..."
"The goddess who was once out of reach now belongs to me!"
Thinking of this, Ye Chen walked straight over. Seeing Ye Chen approaching, Du Xiaoya immediately lowered her head in shame. Although she had made a choice, Du Xiaoya hadn't fully given herself to him yet. It was impossible to say she wasn't nervous or shy.
When he arrived in front of Du Xiaoya, Ye Chen looked her over from top to bottom and asked,
"Ready for bed?"
"Yeah..."
Du Xiaoya replied softly. Her whispered response instantly ignited the passion Ye Chen could no longer suppress. With a swift movement, he scooped her up in a princess carry, and walked directly towards the bedroom. There are many exciting moments in life, like achieving great success or a wedding night. Ye Chen was in such a state now. The goddess he had fantasized about for so long was now right in front of him. No man in his position could fail to be excited. Inside the room, the lights were bright, and figures swayed. Outside the window, the wind fluttered, and the rain was drizzling gently.
.................................
The next day,
Ye Chen woke up at dawn. Glancing at Du Xiaoya, who was clinging to his arm like a koala, he couldn't help but smile.
"I really didn't expect to hit the jackpot like this..."
Du Xiaoya was very beautiful and had been pursued by many. Ye Chen had originally thought that Du Xiaoya might have already experienced another stage of womanhood, perhaps "ripe and already picked." Who would have thought that wasn't the case. Gently retracting his arm, Ye Chen got up and went to the bathroom. The running water washed over him, and Ye Chen's mood became cheerful.
After showering, Ye Chen put on the full set of designer clothes Andy had prepared and looked at himself in the mirror.
"So handsome."
People rely on clothes, and horses rely on saddles—this isn't just an empty saying. At this moment, Ye Chen, because of the clothes on his body, exuded an added charm, and his aura seemed to expand significantly. After leaving the bathroom, he glanced at Du Xiaoya still sleeping in the bedroom, and Ye Chen didn't bother her. After sending Du Xiaoya a message on his mobile phone, Ye Chen transferred 1 million yuan to her. Although Du Xiaoya had never mentioned money from beginning to end, Ye Chen couldn't act as if nothing had happened. It was just pocket money, and for Ye Chen, who possessed immense wealth, it was a negligible amount.
After leaving the presidential suite, Andy, who was waiting outside the door, stepped forward, bowed, and asked,
"Mr. Ye, do you need a car?"
A five-star hotel wouldn't usually provide a car for just any guest, but Ye Chen was different. Ye Chen was staying in the presidential suite and had spent nearly one million yuan. No hotel could ignore such a high-value guest. The high cost was exchanged for top-tier courtesy; the reason was as simple as that. Ye Chen nodded and said,
"Alright, I expect to be running around a lot today."
Andy smiled slightly and said,
"Okay, Mr. Ye, I will make arrangements for you."
"Okay."
Ye Chen finished speaking and headed straight towards the special elevator.
Seeing this, Andy hurriedly followed and pressed the elevator button for Ye Chen. The elevator for the Presidential Suite was exclusive and not open to the public. Ye Chen didn't have to wait; as soon as he pressed the button, the elevator door opened in response.
"Mr. Ye, I wish you a pleasant day."
Ye Chen nodded and entered the elevator. He went straight down and soon arrived at the first-floor lobby. At this moment, there were some people in the lobby checking in or out at the front desk. Several people were sitting in the lounge area, though it wasn't clear whether they were staying at the hotel or just visiting. Overall, there were significantly more people in the lobby than the previous night. Several female receptionists on duty saw Ye Chen, hurriedly stood up, bowed, and called out,
"Mr. Ye."
Details about Presidential Suite guests aren't publicly shared, but the hotel staff are aware. Meeting and saluting such guests is also a perk associated with the Presidential Suite. The female receptionists formal greeting immediately attracted the attention of others in the lobby. While hotel service staff often greeted guests politely, most people hadn't witnessed such a pronounced display of deference before. Ye Chen glanced at the female receptionists, who saluted him and nodded with a smile. Just then, another female receptionist trotted over.
"Mr. Ye, your special car is ready."
Ye Chen acknowledged with a nod and walked towards the revolving door, then saw the black extended Lincoln parked at the entrance. Next to the Lincoln stood a blond foreign man in his forties, dressed in a tuxedo.
"This hotel is interesting. It actually hires foreigners as drivers to enhance its prestige..."
Thinking of this, Ye Chen couldn't help but smile and stepped outside. Seeing Ye Chen come out, the blond foreign man placed his right hand across his chest, bowed slightly, and said,
"Hello, Mr. Ye. I am your private car driver. You can call me Jack."
Ye Chen nodded. Seeing this, Jack immediately opened the rear door for Ye Chen, using one hand to shield the top of the door frame to prevent Ye Chen from bumping his head.
