"Why aren't you moving!!!!!" the opulent woman demanded, seeing that none of the security guards had budged.
Although the lobby manager couldn't directly confront the guest, he sarcastically retorted,
"Madam, guests in regular rooms, even high-class ones, are not entitled to have security assist them with such matters!"
The lobby manager's sarcasm was delivered with perfect precision.
Chen Fan had initially assumed she was referring to a room of equal status to his own.
Chen Fan hadn't seen a woman like her in the presidential suite area.
He knew, of course, that he was the sole occupant of the presidential suite. After all, who would casually stay in the presidential suite of a five-star hotel unless they, like Chen Fan, had a WeChat balance consisting of many digits?
Upon hearing the lobby manager's taunt about it being a regular suite, the opulent woman immediately flared up and said,
"What's wrong with a high-class regular suite? It's still better than a guest in a regular room like him! Are you going to help him instead of me???"
The lobby manager remained silent. Since it wasn't him on duty yesterday, he didn't know exactly which suite Chen Fan was staying in. However, observing Chen Fan's demeanor and his years of experience in judging people, the lobby manager was convinced that this young man was no ordinary guest.
Seeing Chen Fan approaching, the lobby manager didn't continue arguing with the woman. After all, as a lobby manager, he was expected to show respect to every customer.
Chen Fan was walking briskly towards the opulent woman.
The opulent woman was indeed startled by Chen Fan's imposing presence, but she tried to maintain a composed facade as he approached.
"What? This is a society governed by law, do you intend to hit me!!" the opulent woman said quickly as Chen Fan reached her.
However, Chen Fan hadn't come to fight. He directly threw a black room card onto the floor in front of the opulent woman.
"You said I was a guest of a regular suite?" Chen Fan asked, looking at the opulent woman with amusement.
The lobby manager, seeing Chen Fan toss the card, took a closer look.
His heart was immediately stirred by waves of astonishment.
"Incredible, absolutely incredible, this gentleman is a distinguished guest of the presidential suite."
The lobby manager thought this to himself, but showed no outward reaction.
The opulent woman, without even glancing at the card Chen Fan had dropped, shouted at him,
"You think you can fool me by just throwing a card on the floor? Are you out of your mind? I don't even need to look to know it's just a black card. Do you think that's your room key? I live here, so I know much better than you! Room keys are white with gold trim!!"
At this moment, the lobby manager felt the time was right.
He picked up the room card Chen Fan had dropped and respectfully announced to Chen Fan,
"Welcome, esteemed presidential suite occupant!!!"
Upon hearing "presidential suite occupant," the surrounding staff and security guards also respectfully hailed Chen Fan.
The opulent woman was instantly dumbfounded.
"You actually, you actually, you're staying in the presidential suite???"
Seeing the opulent woman's shocked reply, Chen Fan felt his peculiar goal of showing off had been achieved.
He quickly said,
"What? Not convinced?"
However, Chen Fan's anticipation was met with a jaw-dropping response.
The opulent woman looked at him with a look of disdain and suspicion.
"You're so young and already staying in the presidential suite, did you steal the money!"
Chen Fan felt his entire worldview crumble. In all his years of traveling and experiencing different places, he had never encountered such an absurd situation.
He was immediately rendered speechless by the opulent woman's remark.
The lobby manager, too, felt he had never witnessed such a bewildering incident in his life and immediately began to doubt his suitability for his job.
"The world is full of oddities, only the Red Sun Hotel can contain them all."
This was what Chen Fan wanted to say. Truly, the world had many strange individuals, but he had rarely encountered them in his travels across China. Ever since arriving in the Red Sun country, he had encountered at least one per day. It was beyond comprehension.
At this moment, both Chen Fan and the lobby manager stood in awkward silence.
The lobby manager was in the worst predicament. After all, he had just bowed and spoken respectfully to Chen Fan while picking up his room card. Chen Fan still hadn't taken the card, so the lobby manager remained in a bent-over posture.
Chen Fan, meanwhile, stared at the opulent woman, unable to speak for a long time.
"See, I've exposed you. You've been silent for so long, how could someone so young afford to stay in the presidential suite."
Seeing that Chen Fan and the lobby manager remained silent, the opulent woman declared,
"Security guards!! Hurry up and throw this thief out! They're truly tarnishing the hotel's reputation! How dare you let someone who steals check in!"
The security guards at the entrance were inwardly wishing they could throw the opulent woman out themselves. Someone who could afford the presidential suite in this hotel would surely not have obtained the money through theft. Why would they steal hundreds of thousands for just one night when they could do so much more with it? She might be an idiot, but they weren't! This was what the security guards were thinking.
