Lover Hotel 20% Discount

Lin Feng clapped his hands and looked at her with a grin.

He could no longer stand the stares from the passersby either and was happy to put her down.

Zhu Zhuqing's temple twitched. "I'm not your disciple. I haven't agreed to it yet!"

Lin Feng curled his lips indifferently. "Did you forget something? Does it matter whether you agree or not? You can't change an established fact..."

Then his tone shifted, carrying a smugness that begged for a beating. "Heh, you should be secretly thrilled to become my disciple. Countless people have wept and begged to take me as their master, yet I couldn't even be bothered to accept them."

Zhu Zhuqing silently rolled her eyes. This guy's skin was thicker than a city wall. His narcissism knew no bounds!

If he said he wanted to pursue her, that would have sounded a hundred times more believable than taking her as a disciple.

No, why had she even had that thought?

She took a deep breath and explained again, "I came here to find someone. Besides, I have many things of my own to do. I can't become your disciple. I'm truly sorry...!"

Lin Feng chuckled, looking as though he understood.

Of course, he knew whom she had come to find. It simply was not convenient to expose it to her face.

"Oh? Disciple, did you travel all this way to find your lover?"

He looked at her teasingly. "You're so young, with such great talent, yet instead of thinking about how to become stronger, all you think about is romance?"

Zhu Zhuqing choked on her words.

Though unpleasant, his words seemed to hit somewhat close to home.

No! She had indeed come to find someone, but she was looking for her fiancé, not some lover.

And she was doing it to survive and take revenge, not to fool around with romance!

"Don't spout nonsense! I'm not!" she retorted in agitation.

Lin Feng could not be bothered to argue with her and waved his hand impatiently. "Enough, enough. You don't need to explain. It's almost dark, and after traveling for so long, I'm starving."

"Let's hurry and find somewhere to eat, then somewhere to rest."

He added, "Do you have any money on you? You're treating me to this meal."

Zhu Zhuqing was speechless again, as if she had punched a ball of cotton.

As for treating him, she did still have some Gold Coins left, but why should she be the one paying?

She was about to object when she suddenly realized that the wounds that had been agonizingly painful before no longer hurt at all.

She instinctively lowered her head to inspect her arm. The scars had nearly vanished without a trace.

Her eyes brightened as she looked at Lin Feng with surprise and gratitude. "Um, you treated my injuries, didn't you? Thank you..."

"No need to be polite."

Lin Feng waved a large hand. "You're my disciple. It's only natural for me to treat you."

Zhu Zhuqing opened her mouth, but ultimately swallowed the rebuttal.

Forget it. Arguing with this man was a complete waste of breath. He would not listen anyway.

"What do you want to eat? Fine, I'll treat you."

"Anything. I'm not picky."

Lin Feng immediately cut in, looking easy to feed. "Whatever you buy, I'll eat."

Zhu Zhuqing nodded silently and said no more.

The two found a restaurant in the city that looked fairly clean and respectable and went inside.

They devoured the food and ate their fill.

Watching the way Lin Feng ate, Zhu Zhuqing wondered where he looked like a teacher.

He wanted to take her as his disciple? It seemed rather unreliable.

Following their earlier plan, they continued searching for a place to stay.

Perhaps some unseen force guided them, for they somehow ended up at the entrance of the Rose Hotel.

Lin Feng's eyes lit up. The moment he saw the name, he made his decision—this was where they would stay!

He had long been curious about this place.

Over the years, he had kept to himself and focused entirely on cultivation. This was also his first time setting foot in Suotuo City.

Excited, he pointed at the uniquely decorated hotel. "This place looks pretty good. Let's stay here!"

Zhu Zhuqing looked in the direction of his finger, abruptly stopped, and a flush rose to her cheeks.

She fumed inwardly. Was this guy doing it on purpose? Couldn't he tell this was a Lover Hotel?

"No, let's choose another one. This place is...!" she tried to explain.

"Why change? What a hassle. This is the one!"

Lin Feng waved his hand, then seemed to recall something and added, "Oh, right, you're still paying..."

At that, Zhu Zhuqing's Cat Eyes widened into perfect circles. Why did she have to pay again?

Only she knew that her travel money was already nearly gone. If she kept spending like this, even the Registration Fee for the academy would be running low.

Lin Feng took a few steps forward, noticed that she had not followed, and turned back to urge her on.

"Come on. What are you standing there for? What, reluctant to part with your Gold Coins?"

His eyes shifted as he deliberately sighed. "Sigh, forget it. You can find a hotel and stay by yourself. As for me... I can make do in a corner by the roadside for the night."

There was a pitiful note in his voice.

His words made Zhu Zhuqing's face burn, making her sound like some heartless, unfeeling person.

She bit her lower lip and clenched the flattened purse at her waist. This man's words were infuriating. What a waste of such a Good Looking face.

Yet in the end, she still reached out, grabbed the hem of Lin Feng's clothes, and dragged him toward the hotel entrance without a word.

As soon as they reached the doorway, a conspicuous sign caught their eyes:

"Couples receive 20% off!"

Lin Feng saw it and grinned. He leaned toward Zhu Zhuqing and lowered his voice teasingly.

"Hey, see that? Couples get 20% off! How about we put on an act? Pretend for a bit?"

The words "no way" nearly blurted out of Zhu Zhuqing's mouth, but when she thought of the few pathetic Gold Coins jingling in her purse, the refusal rolled around on the tip of her tongue before she swallowed it.

She even began to seriously suspect that this man had been plotting to take advantage of her from the very beginning.

"Hey!"

Zhu Zhuqing suddenly stopped, her voice tinged with Shameful Anger. "You, you still haven't told me your name!"

Lin Feng froze, only then realizing it.

That was right. He knew she was Zhu Zhuqing, but she knew absolutely nothing about him!

It was purely an oversight caused by the subconscious familiarity he felt toward her.

"Look at my memory!"

He slapped his forehead. "My name is Lin Feng."

"I... I'm Zhu Zhuqing," she replied softly.

"Oh, alright. Disciple, everything's clear now, so hurry up and get a room!"

Lin Feng let out a huge yawn. "Right now, I just want to sleep until I'm dead to the world. I'm exhausted."

That was no lie. He truly had not slept for several days..!

The two went to the reception desk to check in, and only then did Zhu Zhuqing belatedly realize a problem.

Pretending to be a couple would get them the discount, but they could only book one room..!

!Now she was truly stuck between a rock and a hard place...!

She turned her head and stared at Lin Feng with a pair of Cat Eyes filled with resentment.

Were they really going to book this room...!

The Receptionist offered a sweet, professional smile, giving them an assist. "Are the two of you staying the night? Couples currently receive 20% off. May I ask whether you two are a couple?"
