Reborn In the Apocalypse: My Hotel Has Unlimited Supplies-Chapter 26: Zheng Wen’an’s Ambition

Upon hearing Little Fox’s words, Chu Jiangyue raised an eyebrow.

She had always been dismissive towards Zheng Wen’an and Liu Yiyi; Zheng Wen’an, with a bit of backbone, wouldn’t usually approach her.

After all, he is the male lead, and even if his character is lacking, he should have some backbone, right?

As facts prove, backbone isn’t something everyone possesses.

Zheng Wen’an hesitated in his room upstairs for a long time before finally deciding to come out.

At this moment, Liu Yiyi came out of her room as well.

"Brother Wen An!"

The sweetness in her voice almost made Chu Jiangyue feel nauseous.

"Yiyi."

Zheng Wen’an nodded towards Liu Yiyi without showing much intimacy.

His current target had shifted from Liu Yiyi to Chu Jiangyue.

Yes, that’s our Boss Chu.

Zheng Wen’an has his sights set high, but he overestimates himself.

Having been praised often, he’s forgotten his own worth.

Zheng Wen’an had groomed himself before going out today, though despite the effort, there were still many creases, lowering his appearance by several grades.

After entering Building 1, he ignored Liu Yiyi, who was eager to please him, and gazed at Chu Jiangyue tenderly: "Boss Chu, I’d like to buy some food."

"Place your order over by the counter; there’s no need to consult me."

Chu Jiangyue couldn’t perceive Zheng Wen’an’s intentions and even found him somewhat annoying.

Zheng Wen’an was unaware of Chu Jiangyue’s impression and judgment of him; trying to appear scholarly, a popular kind of young face before the apocalypse.

Chu Jiangyue felt indifferent throughout: "Please don’t stand in front of the counter; it disrupts my business."

Once in the shop, you’re a customer; Chu Jiangyue wouldn’t refuse a transaction but her attitude could vary from person to person.

Zheng Wen’an was dissatisfied with Chu Jiangyue’s perfunctory attitude but considering the circumstances, ultimately held back.

No matter how difficult the process, Zheng Wen’an didn’t show any impatience.

To gain something, one must lose something.

Once he wins her over, he’ll manipulate the hotel, and then the hotel will be under his control!

Whether it’s Chu Jiangyue or Liu Yiyi, they would merely become his playthings!

In a corner unseen, Zheng Wen’an’s ambition grew boundlessly.

If Chu Jiangyue knew what Zheng Wen’an was thinking, she’d honestly want to say: disgusting!

"My apologies, I was just momentarily distracted seeing Jiang Yue classmate. I’ll move now."

With that, Zheng Wen’an shifted aside a bit, then coughed weakly a couple of times; if Chu Jiangyue didn’t know his nature, she might really fall for it.

"Brother Wen An, are you okay? Why did you suddenly cough?"

See, someone has already been fooled.

"The room has basic living supplies. If you need something, settle it yourself; don’t ask me."

The room setup at the hotel is standardized; rooms of the same price have identical decor, a matter Chu Jiangyue doesn’t need to handle.

"Why are you so heartless! If something happens to Brother Wen An, I won’t spare you!"

Chu Jiangyue curled her lips; some people are unreasonable, and she couldn’t be bothered to argue.

"Host, why do I feel this male lead has a strange attitude towards you?"

Little Fox stood on Chu Jiangyue’s shoulder, observing Zheng Wen’an’s actions towards Chu Jiangyue, feeling something was off.

’Not too stupid,’

Chu Jiangyue also sensed some of Zheng Wen’an’s intentions, but she wasn’t interested in the central-air-personality male lead.

Things didn’t develop as Zheng Wen’an expected, making his expression somewhat dark, though he quickly adjusted.

"It’s all your fault! Why didn’t you open the rooms earlier; if Brother Wen An falls ill, you’re the culprit!"

Liu Yiyi at this point forgot her fear of Chu Jiangyue, immediately blaming her.

"He moved in with you, yet you didn’t fall ill; why did he suddenly get sick?"

Chu Jiangyue slammed half a watermelon onto the counter, glared at Liu Yiyi unhappily.

"Yiyi, it’s alright, it was my own carelessness, don’t blame Boss Chu."

Zheng Wen’an did not want to confront Chu Jiangyue when he’s still aspiring to eventually win her over and become the owner of the hotel.

Liu Yiyi gave Chu Jiangyue a glare, cautiously supporting Zheng Wen’an as they went inside.

Chu Jiangyue: ...looks like someone’s about to give birth, yet no one actually cares.

Chu Jiangyue criticized internally, and after they disappeared from sight, she continued eating her watermelon.

After Liu Yiyi and Zheng Wen’an entered the room, it wasn’t long before someone else came out.

This time it was the female lead’s brother Jin Churan and several students brought back by Shen Zhigui.

Seeing Chu Jiangyue with half a watermelon, they all showed envious expressions.

Indeed, those who can open a hotel in the apocalyptic times indulge in watermelons by the half, scooping it out.

Whether Boss Chu was willing to sell the other half was uncertain.

"Boss Chu, how much is this watermelon?"

On a hot day, eating chilled watermelon would feel heavenly.

"Not for sale; if you plan to kill zombies, hurry up; otherwise, you might not even see a shadow of them."

Knowing that they could exchange zombie crystal cores for money at the hotel, Jianglin Hotel guests began forming teams to hunt zombies.

Currently, Prosperity Heights scarcely has any zombies left; if they do appear, they wander individually.

Nobody bothers with basic zombies.

Teams like Shen Zhigui’s, with superior strength, venture further to find zombies, refusing to hunt anything less than a Level 1 Zombie.

Jin Churan felt a bit disappointed; had he acquired the watermelon, he could impress his sister later, avoiding being outdone by her.

However, given Chu Jiangyue’s undeniable tone, he knew further negotiation would be pointless.

He joined the group of students, soon stepping into the night.

The lights of Jianglin Hotel were unmistakably the brightest star during the night.

Their illumination ensured everyone found their way back home.

Tonight was a quiet night; until 11 PM, Chu Jiangyue hadn’t encountered any new customers aside from those leaving to gather resources and hunt zombies.

With no one arriving by closing, Chu Jiangyue nonchalantly clocked out and left.

’Tomorrow, I’m sleeping in; don’t disturb me unless there’s something urgent.’

Back in her quarters, Chu Jiangyue promptly instructed Little Fox.

She’s learned from multiple experiences of being awakened by Little Fox.

"I got this; trust my work efficiency!"

Little Fox patted its little chest, confidently promising.

Still, Chu Jiangyue didn’t entirely believe in its promise.
