Gu Meng

"Sorry, all the Mecha simulation training machines are occupied right now. Plus, there are people waiting behind almost every training pod. We only have one simulation training pod you can reserve, but you'll have to wait five hours to use it."

Liu Zhi replied with a chuckle.

Hearing Liu Zhi's words, Su Ming and Lin Chuyu both felt a headache coming on. Their worst fears had come true.

Su Ming calculated carefully. He had a class at eight, and he'd arrived quite late today; it was already almost five. He had to leave by seven-thirty at the latest. Waiting five hours would mean it was ten o'clock, which was completely impossible. So, he asked Liu Zhi, "Can we reserve for tomorrow?"

"Sorry, we can't. Look how popular we are. If we accepted reservations, other customers would complain."

Liu Zhi replied directly.

Hearing this, Su Ming helplessly turned to Lin Chuyu and asked, "I have a class at eight, so I won't make it in time. Do you want to use it?"

"Yes, I'll wait."

Lin Chuyu replied without the slightest hesitation.

"Okay, then I'll reserve a Mecha simulation training pod for you."

Su Ming replied, slightly surprised. He hadn't expected Lin Chuyu to be so diligent.

"Thank you."

Lin Chuyu replied gratefully.

Su Ming turned back to Liu Zhi and said, "Please reserve it for me."

Just as Liu Zhi was about to respond to Su Ming, a haughty female voice suddenly cut in.

"We've reserved the simulation training pod."

Su Ming's brow furrowed slightly, and he turned to look.

He saw a tall, slender woman wearing black high heels, with a slightly glamorous makeup and seductive lips painted with bright lipstick, wearing the Haiheng Academy uniform, walking over.

Beside her was a handsome young man with a high nose bridge and an arrogant expression, wearing designer casual wear. There was also a plain-looking girl with exaggerated round earrings, wearing a school uniform.

"Oh, isn't this Miss Gu Meng? You want to reserve a simulation training pod? I'll reserve it for you right away."

Liu Zhi said, fawning obsequiously.

When Lin Chuyu heard Liu Zhi was about to give the simulation training pod to Gu Meng, she was about to speak when she heard Su Ming ask with a slightly cold tone, "Wait a minute, we reserved this simulation training pod first. Why should it go to them?"

Liu Zhi's fawning smile froze. He then turned to Su Ming and said, "You haven't reserved it yet."

Gu Meng glanced at Su Ming, then ignored him, and said to Lin Chuyu with a light laugh, "Isn't this Lin Chuyu? When did your taste get so bad, bringing along such a fatty?"

"Su Ming is my friend."

Lin Chuyu replied calmly.

"A friend? I think he's a simp, and a useless one at that. Liu Zhi, I'm taking the training pod. You know very well who my father is, so who dares to fight me for it!"

Gu Meng said very haughtily.

"Miss Gu Meng, what are you saying? Who else would I give it to if not you?"

Liu Zhi replied obsequiously.

"You dare! The Mecha training pod was reserved by me first! Get your manager over here!"

Su Ming could tell Liu Zhi was biased towards the other party, so he wasn't going to waste words with him. Although he disliked trouble, it didn't mean he was afraid of it.

Liu Zhi was in a difficult position for a moment. He really wanted to please Gu Meng, but Su Ming's attitude was so firm, and he didn't seem easy to deal with.

Gu Meng also realized Liu Zhi couldn't make the decision, so she snorted and said, "Go get your manager."

"Okay."

Liu Zhi thanked him with a simpering smile and left.

At this moment, Su Ming and Lin Chuyu were confronting Gu Meng and her companions. Many people waiting to use the simulation training machines around them saw the argument and gathered to watch the commotion.

"Isn't that Gu Meng, the great beauty from your Haiheng Academy? And isn't the handsome guy standing next to her Qi Shen?"

"It's them. Who is the one arguing with Gu Meng from the other side?"

"Lin Chuyu from Mient Junior Academy. The other guy looks familiar, but I can't quite recall."

"Oh, so she's Lin Chuyu? She's really pretty!"

"Your school's Gu Meng is also good-looking."

"She is, but she's too overbearing."

The onlookers continued to chatter.

At this moment, a boy wearing a Mienter school uniform, with black spots all over his face, saw Su Ming and Lin Chuyu together. A wicked smile appeared on his face, he picked up his phone and took a picture, then retreated from the crowd.

Just then, Liu Zhi walked over with a middle-aged man wearing a white shirt, with sparse hair and a round face.

"I'm the manager of Heavy Assault, Wan Shan. Liu Zhi has already explained the situation to me."

Wan Shan directly stated that he understood what was going on.

Su Ming looked at Manager Wan Shan expressionlessly and said.

"Your club is open for business. The principle of first come, first served, I don't need to elaborate, do I?"

At this moment, Gu Meng also said, not to be outdone.

"I don't care about all that, I'm taking the simulation training pod today!"

Wan Shan's gaze first swept over Su Ming, then over Gu Meng. His eyes rolled as he said to Su Ming.

"Brother, although you wanted the simulation training pod first, you haven't paid yet. If you haven't paid, it's not considered booked. Of course, we're in business, and we won't favor anyone, so make your offers. Whoever offers a higher price will get the reservation."

Hearing this, Su Ming's eyes grew colder. It was obvious that Wan Shan was favoring Gu Meng and her group.

Gu Meng heard Wan Shan say this and immediately said triumphantly.

"Makes sense, highest bidder wins! If you don't have money, shut up and get lost!"

"Okay!"

Su Ming agreed directly.

"I offer three hundred per hour!"

Gu Meng bid directly.

"Five hundred!"

Su Ming replied without hesitation.

"Eight hundred!"

Gu Meng snorted and raised the price again.

"One thousand!"

Su Ming didn't back down and raised it to one thousand.

Hearing Su Ming raise the price to one thousand, Gu Meng didn't immediately bid again. Hesitation flickered across her face.

At this moment, Qi Shen, who was pursuing Gu Meng, saw this and immediately spoke on her behalf.

"Two thousand per hour!"

The onlookers present immediately let out a gasp.

Just as Su Ming was about to speak, Lin Chuyu on the side reached out and stopped him, biting her lip and saying.

"Forget it, it's too expensive! I'll come back to train another day."

At such a high price, she couldn't afford to train either.

"It's okay, this has nothing to do with you, you don't need to worry about it. Just bid at the normal price, three thousand!"

Su Ming shouted calmly.

"Wow, three thousand per hour, that's too extravagant."

"They really don't treat money as money!"

The crowd on the scene exclaimed.

Gu Meng and Qi Shen's faces immediately turned very ugly. Su Ming had already bid three thousand. If they were to bid higher, just a few hours would cost them tens of thousands of Federal currency.

Although they had some money, they were reluctant to spend it like this. After all, an Iron Head Mecha only cost a few million Federal currency.
