Inheritance of Two Trillion-Chapter 85: Entering the Door is Not Easy_1
Chapter 85: Chapter 85: Entering the Door is Not Easy_1
Bai Xiaosheng and Zhengdong Province parked their car, and walked back to the entrance of Mingzhu Tower.
From a distance, Zhengdong Province saw Han Dongxu with eyes swollen like red peaches. The fatty couldn’t help bursting into a series of loud laughs, even merrier than the laugh Han Dongxu had earlier.
A few classmates around Han Dongxu were somewhat embarrassed.
Some nodded and waved their hands discreetly from behind, as a form of greeting.
Bai Xiaosheng nodded slightly.
To these people, who simply followed the crowd, neither Bai Xiaosheng nor Zhengdong Province paid much attention, nor held any grudge.
"I’d say, Peach... oh, sorry, Han Dongxu, you look much more handsome after the fix!" Zhengdong Province said affirmatively, giving a thumbs-up.
Han Dongxu’s eyes practically shot daggers, but he still managed to keep a smile on his face, which was quite a complex expression to pull off.
"The top floor, Qingyun Pavilion, is our reserved private room, you two may head up," Han Dongxu said.
Qingyun Pavilion, sounded like some sort of novel sect, but Bai Xiaosheng had done some inquiries through Red Lotus.
Qingyun, actually derived from the saying "to ascend to the skies in one step," catered to the rich’s mindset, showcased an antique style, and highlighted the height of Mingzhu Tower as if one were standing at the cloud level on the top floor.
Ascend to the skies in one step, huh? Bai Xiaosheng chuckled.
Perhaps I’ll tumble down from the clouds soon!
As Bai Xiaosheng pondered, he suddenly caught a sly glint in Han Dongxu’s eyes.
What malicious trick is this kid cooking up now?
"Then we will head up, and you just enjoy guarding the gate down here—aha!" Zhengdong Province laughed heartily.
Dogs are indeed suitable for gatekeeping!
Han Dongxu caught the insinuation behind the fatty’s words, his gaze flickered with anger, but he forcibly suppressed it, pretending not to hear.
Ignoring Han Dongxu, Bai Xiaosheng and Zhengdong Province moved towards the inside of Mingzhu Tower, only to be stopped by two security guards at the entrance of the lobby.
"Sir, you cannot enter." One of the guards spoke bluntly to Bai Xiaosheng.
"Hmm? Why can’t we enter?" Zhengdong Province was astonished.
"You can, but, he can’t," another guard pointed at Bai Xiaosheng, "We have rules here. Above the eighty-eighth floor, guests must be in formal attire, and this gentleman’s clothing does not comply."
Bai Xiaosheng’s mind raced.
Red Lotus immediately searched.
Indeed, above the eighty-eighth floor of Mingzhu Tower were premium business establishments and top-end hotels, and this was the rule.
"Whose rule is this?" Zhengdong Province couldn’t help but shout, then his eyes flickered, "How do you know we’re going above the eighty-eighth floor? Perhaps we..."
"You’re heading to the top floor. That gentleman alerted us," one of the guards pointed to Han Dongxu.
Zhengdong Province ran out of arguments, he turned around, glaring furiously at Han Dongxu.
He was slightly irate and said to the guard with a scowl, "We are consumers, clients, how can you treat us like this! If the mayor visited without formal attire, would you block him too?"
"That we wouldn’t stop," the guard replied lazily, "Are you the mayor?"
"You!" Zhengdong Province was livid.
"Forget it, fatty. Even if we got into the lobby, there are people specifically responsible for the lift, and they surely won’t let me pass dressed like this," Bai Xiaosheng had just finished researching the rules, so he was, naturally, well aware of them, "Going back to change is out of question, we need to think of something else."
As Bai Xiaosheng spoke, he glanced at the guards.
The two guards snickered, their contempt evident.
In terms of regulations, Mingzhu Tower had always enforced them sternly; there were many who wanted special treatment, but few succeeded.
Outside, Han Dongxu watched Bai Xiaosheng and Zhengdong Province being turned away, and he could hardly contain his delight.
Wait until you come out with your tails between your legs; then I’ll help you out. The reunion is meaningless without you two, Han Dongxu thought to himself.
In his car, he actually had a suit stashed away.
This was just his way of using the rules to assert dominance over Bai Xiaosheng and Zhengdong Province.
"Hey, this Bai Xiaosheng, he doesn’t even wear formal attire. Isn’t that just asking for trouble?"
"Exactly! But look at how he’s dressed; does he seem like he’s doing well? I bet he’s hardly ever worn formal attire."
"Such a top student, but ended up like this... sigh..."
The classmates standing behind Han Dongxu couldn’t help but whisper among themselves.
Over there.
"Bai, don’t panic, we’ve got people too, just wait a moment!"
Zhengdong Province glared at the security guard, took out his phone in a hurry, and ran off to the side to start dialing.
The two security guards exchanged a knowing smile, with a hint of mockery in their smiles.
They had seen this scene often enough, everyone thinking that just by knowing a couple of people, they could move heaven and earth.
Bai Xiaosheng slightly furrowed his brow, also thinking of a plan. Suddenly, his phone rang, and to his surprise, it was Master Song Kai.
After the banquet that day, the old man had given him a private number.
Bai Xiaosheng ran to the side and answered the call.
"Kid, do you have some time, come out and chat, have a cup of tea,"
Master Song Kai invited him.
"I’m sorry, Master, I’m currently at a class reunion and probably can’t get away," Bai Xiaosheng said regretfully.
"No worries, when you’re free we’ll talk," Master Song Kai said, also a bit regretful.
To turn down the Master for a class reunion!
If Shang Wenshu and the others heard this, they would certainly be beating their chests and stomping their feet.
Yet the Master, having been turned down, showed not the slightest displeasure.
If District Chief Wu knew this, he would undoubtedly be stunned.
"By the way, Master, could you do me a favor?" Bai Xiaosheng quickly asked.
...
After hanging up the phone,
Bai Xiaosheng returned to the two security guards, his expression calm and unhurried.
Zhengdong Province rushed back, wiping the sweat off his forehead, and proudly said to Bai Xiaosheng, "All sorted out, all sorted! Our headmaster has broad connections. He’s contacted the leader here, relax, we’ll be in shortly!"
The two security guards let out another light laugh.
However, after just a moment, each one of them pressed their earpieces and frowned as they listened.
"Housekeeping Mrs. Wang, says bring them through..."
"Then take them there and avoid the crowd."
The two security guards seemed reluctant, murmured a few words, and reluctantly agreed.
"Come with me," one security guard said with a very stiff tone.
Zhengdong Province, still able to gain entry, was overjoyed, not minding the situation at all, and even flashed Bai Xiaosheng a proud smile.
Bai Xiaosheng gave his plump friend a thumbs up.
The two followed the security guard inside.
"They’ve gone in!"
Over at Han Dongxu’s side, someone exclaimed in surprise.
Han Dongxu himself was taken aback, somewhat in disbelief.
"Looks like Zhengdong Province, this fat pig, still has some tricks up his sleeve!" Han Dongxu muttered, then sneered, "Well, the more capable he is, the more satisfying it will be when I take him down!"
Bai Xiaosheng and his companion had just left.
A middle-aged man with a head full of gray hair but a remarkably youthful face hurried over.
The security guards, who had been nonchalant before, were startled upon seeing this person, quickly straightened up, and were about to salute.
The middle-aged man waved them off, asking anxiously,
"Where are they, the two people who just got stopped by you guys here?"
"It was, it was Mrs. Wang from housekeeping, she demanded we let them through, they’ve just been taken inside!" The security guard turned pale, stuttering, yet didn’t dare to lie.
The middle-aged man frowned, falling silent for a moment.
"Your security department and logistics department have been neglectful, abused their authority; this month’s bonus is gone! Also, tell that old Wang from logistics to roll over to the front gate and stand guard for a month!"
The middle-aged man huffed coldly and turned to leave.
The security guards broke out in a cold sweat.
