A few moments later, they were back at the Saint De Hotel.
Ye Cangtian’s gaze immediately fell upon the two receptionists at the entrance. One of them had her face heavily bandaged, head bowed, too ashamed to meet anyone’s eyes.
It was the same receptionist who had been hit by Pamela earlier that day.
Seeing this, Ye Cangtian offered a faint smile and deliberately entered the hotel from the side where the receptionist stood.
“Welcome…”
The receptionist, seeing someone approach, quickly bowed and instinctively glanced at the person.
Because her face was covered in bandages, many people found it unlucky, so they usually entered and exited the hotel from the other side. Few people walked this way.
She was curious about who was coming now.
To her surprise, upon seeing a familiar face, her eyes immediately filled with resentment.
“Why are you back again!”
“Didn’t you hear what Manager Pamela said? You can’t check in here!”
The receptionist immediately spread her arms, blocking Ye Cangtian and his companions.
At this moment, she felt like jumping off a building. How could she be so unlucky?
Previously, because of this person, she had been slapped and all her bonuses deducted.
Now, she encountered them again. If she let them in, her job would be gone.
“Return, have you forgotten what I said before?”
“I’m staying in the presidential suite here today!”
“Go call Pamela!”
Ye Cangtian looked at the somewhat agitated receptionist and smiled faintly.
“I’m not going!”
“Are you sick? You clearly don’t have the qualification to check in, why are you back!”
“Even if you come back, can’t you just leave me alone? Haven’t you caused me enough trouble?”
Hearing this, the female receptionist became even more agitated, pointing to her bandaged face, almost crying with anger.
“…”
Ye Cangtian looked at the tears welling up in her eyes and felt awkward.
To be honest, he had thought the female receptionist was in league with Pamela, so he had deliberately wanted to teach her a lesson.
However, after a few words, he realized that the girl in front of him was young and quite innocent. He immediately felt he had gone too far.
With that thought, he spoke helplessly, “Go, Pamela won’t blame you this time; instead, she’ll reward you. I’ve already found a guarantor!”
As he spoke, Ye Cangtian gestured behind him.
The female receptionist was startled and then followed his gaze. She saw a man in a red robe, wearing a mask.
Although she couldn’t see his face, she recognized the red robe. It represented a Cardinal of the Church of Light.
Seeing this, the female receptionist dared not say anything more! She directly led them to the counter and contacted Pamela.
After all, she didn’t dare to refuse the request of a Cardinal! Moreover, according to the hotel’s regulations, a Cardinal had the right to book the presidential suite here.
A short while later, a beautiful figure walked slowly with elegant steps.
This person was none other than the manager, Pamela.
At this moment, Pamela’s eyes were solely focused on the female receptionist.
Earlier that day, the female receptionist had caused her to be filled with anger.
Now, in the middle of the night, after she had already gone to bed, to be disturbed by her made her even more annoyed.
“Lydia, what esteemed guest requires a presidential suite in the middle of the night?”
“I warned you, if you make another mistake, you can pack your bags and leave today!”
As Pamela passed by the female receptionist, she whispered a warning before shifting her gaze to the group.
When she saw Ye Cangtian and Nancy’s faces, the professional smile she had just managed to muster instantly turned ice-cold.
She walked directly towards Ye Cangtian and said coldly, “Can’t you understand what I’m saying? Or do you not feel embarrassed enough? You dare to come here now, and I have the right to assume you’re causing trouble!”
“Heh, I’m not that bored.”
“I’m just here to broaden my horizons. I’ve never seen someone eat shit while standing on their head!”
Ye Cangtian glanced at her and said playfully.
“You?”
“If you want to see me make a fool of myself, you’ll probably never have the chance in this lifetime!”
Pamela sneered with disdain. She remembered what she had said.
She had indeed said that if Ye Cangtian could make her kneel and invite him into the presidential suite, she would eat shit while standing on her head.
But the prerequisite was that she had to kneel. And he, a mere businessman, wanted her to kneel? It was a preposterous joke!
“Don’t speak too soon. Shouldn’t you look at the person next to me?”
Hearing this, Ye Cangtian smiled and moved aside, revealing Hassal behind him.
A Cardinal?
Upon seeing the man in the red robe, Pamela immediately determined his identity, and her expression changed.
A Cardinal held an extremely high position, both within the Church of Light and in Light City, and met the requirements for accommodation.
If a Cardinal were to intervene, she would have no choice but to welcome him into the presidential suite.
However, letting Ye Cangtian check in like this made her feel unwilling!
Thinking this, she quickly bowed respectfully to the Cardinal and asked, “Sir, are you perhaps familiar with Lord Hassal?”
“Mm.”
Hassal nodded in response.
In his opinion, Ye Cangtian asking him to wear a mask was not to avoid attention, but to steal the limelight.
In other words, he was just a supporting character. Therefore, without any further instructions from Ye Cangtian, it was better for him to speak less.
On the other side, seeing the man nod, Pamela revealed a cunning smile.
She quickly stepped forward and whispered, “Sir, this hotel is protected by Lord Hassal, and the person in front of you caused trouble earlier today…
So, I think it would be best for you to stay out of this to avoid unnecessary trouble!”
Pamela believed this plan was perfectly feasible. After all, the only Cardinal who could contend with Hassal at present was Dames. Who else would dare to disrespect Hassal?
Therefore, she believed that as soon as she mentioned Hassal, the Cardinal in front of her would surely show some deference.
Damn it!
Upon hearing Pamela’s words, Hassal’s gaze turned icy.
Was she deliberately trying to cause trouble for him by mentioning his name now?
Besides, Ye Cangtian had already brought a Cardinal. Wasn’t it enough to simply process the check-in according to the rules?
But Pamela was instigating discord among the Cardinals. It was truly despicable!
Thinking this, he said coldly, “Hassal will not offend Mr. Ye because of you. I advise you to be sensible!”
“Sir is right, but I must warn you, offending Lord Hassal will have dire consequences for you!”
“I hope you’ve thought this through.”
Pamela’s expression instantly turned grim upon hearing this. She then walked in front of Ye Cangtian and made an inviting gesture.
“Mr. Ye, please follow me to complete the check-in procedures!”
Pamela said through gritted teeth. After all, with a Cardinal backing him, she didn’t dare to offend him too much and had to open the room for him.
She would deal with it after meeting Lord Hassal.
Looking at Pamela’s attitude, Ye Cangtian smiled faintly and said, “It seems you’ve forgotten what I said. If you want me to stay here, you must kneel and invite me!”
“What!”
Pamela’s eyes widened at his words. She gritted her teeth and said, “I apologize, Mr. Ye, this establishment does not offer such services!”
“It didn’t before, but now that I’m here, it does!” Ye Cangtian glanced at her and said calmly.
Pamela could no longer suppress her anger and said coldly, “Mr. Ye, you’d best not push your luck. Otherwise, even if someone is backing you, Lord Hassal will not let you off!”
As her voice fell, Ye Cangtian smiled faintly and no longer paid attention to her, shifting his gaze to Hassal.
Sensing Ye Cangtian’s gaze, Hassal immediately understood and removed the mask from his face.
“Lord Hassal!”
