Reborn In the Apocalypse: My Hotel Has Unlimited Supplies-Chapter 81: Confession

"Boss Chu!"

Chu Jiangyue and Shen Zhigui had just walked into the entrance of Jianglin Hotel when the guy with Water Ability ran up, directly blocking their path.

"Do you have any other business?"

Payment has already been made, surely he’s not asking for more money?

Chu Jiangyue looked at the guy with a scrutinizing gaze.

"Boss Chu, I would like to talk to you about something private. Mr. Shen..."

He’s clearly trying to get Shen Zhigui to leave.

"It’s alright, then I’ll head out first. Contact me anytime if needed."

Shen Zhigui didn’t show any reaction, because he knew that Chu Jiangyue couldn’t possibly have any feelings for a guy she’s met for the first time.

However, before leaving, he took a moment to look at the guy, then passed by him.

"Speak your mind."

After Shen Zhigui was out of earshot, Chu Jiangyue looked at the guy, but her attitude was much colder than before.

Chu Jiangyue disliked being forced by others. Although this guy with Water Ability seemed vulnerable the whole time, blocking her directly and making Shen Zhigui leave really hit Chu Jiangyue’s sore spot.

She hadn’t lost her temper yet solely because he’s a guest at Jianglin Hotel.

"Boss Chu, I like you, could you be my girlfriend!" 𝓯𝓻𝓮𝙚𝙬𝓮𝙗𝒏𝙤𝒗𝙚𝙡.𝒄𝒐𝓶

"Wow—"

There were jeers, whistles, and all sorts of reactions.

Someone even shouted, "Say yes to him," causing Chu Jiangyue to furrow her brows.

"I remember, we just met for the first time today, right?"

Maybe this guy has seen her many times, but in Chu Jiangyue’s memory, it’s indeed their first meeting today.

"Definitely not, you previously came with Mr. Shen and them and rescued us from the school."

Wasn’t that the school with Zhu Lanlan last time?

Turns out it’s their second meeting, but during their first meeting, Chu Jiangyue had no impression at all.

"So, you fell for me?"

To this, Chu Jiangyue could only say she is skeptical about his feelings.

Back then there were so many people, why did he single her out?

"Host, I think he’s trying to cozy up to a sugar mommy."

Little Fox’s voice suddenly chimed in her mind, causing Chu Jiangyue to almost lose her composure.

What’s cozying up to a sugar mommy?

Is the system really that frivolous now?

"Yes! I fell in love with you at first sight, please say yes, I will treat you well in the future."

Chu Jiangyue rolled her eyes silently.

"Thank you for your affection, but I don’t like you, you better not focus on me."

Having said this, Chu Jiangyue tried to bypass him and go inside.

Unexpectedly, the guy took a step to continue blocking her: "Why? Tell me where I’m lacking, and I’ll change."

Chu Jiangyue was puzzled. From their brief encounter until now, it hadn’t even been 20 minutes, how could she judge what’s good or bad?

"There’s nothing bad about you, just not my type."

Chu Jiangyue could only make limited comments, the guy was barely seventeen or eighteen, though she was also just eighteen herself, having reincarnated from three years later, her psychological age was already 21.

"Don’t block me, otherwise... you might not be able to stay at Jianglin Hotel."

Chu Jiangyue rarely used this reason to threaten people, but when truly pushed, she wasn’t above taking such measures.

Hearing her say he might not be able to stay at Jianglin Hotel, the guy reluctantly moved aside, though his gaze at her was filled with sadness.

However, with three years of extra experience, this kind of sadness was somewhat suspect.

How suspect depended on the guy’s acting skills.

Chu Jiangyue successfully rid herself of the guy, but her mood was largely ruined.

Shen Zhigui appeared seemingly out of nowhere, naturally walking alongside her.

"Confessed to, yet you don’t seem delighted, shouldn’t you be happy?"

Shen Zhigui acted like he was having a casual chat with a friend, and Chu Jiangyue didn’t find it unusual.

"Would you be happy to be confessed to by someone you don’t like and then pestered?"

For Chu Jiangyue, Shen Zhigui was now akin to a close friend.

Though not quite a truly intimate friend yet.

Shen Zhigui pondered how he’d feel in such a situation, somewhat understanding her mood.

"I get it. Earlier you mentioned he’s not your type, so what is your type?"

Taking the chance, Shen Zhigui asked a question he wanted to know.

"Why, are you planning to set me up?"

Lately, Chu Jiangyue wasn’t thinking of finding a partner.

Given she handled Jianglin Hotel, the man she’d be with might be rumored in the background to be reliant on her.

Few could endure such gossip.

"If you want, it’s possible."

Shen Zhigui spoke lightheartedly but with sincerity.

"I’m not planning on finding a partner right now."

Not to mention the post-apocalyptic world where survival was already tough enough, better not overthink.

Hearing this, Shen Zhigui was uncertain if he felt joy or disappointment.

Yet it compelled him to be more mindful of his behavior in front of Chu Jiangyue, hoping not to cause discomfort.

"You helped today, I should give you compensation. What would you like?"

Shen Zhigui’s effort far surpassed the guy with Water Ability, making gauging compensation challenging for Chu Jiangyue.

"No need, I was just free today and thought I’d do something to pass time."

Shen Zhigui genuinely wasn’t seeking compensation, digging a couple of holes didn’t warrant a reward, he found it too absurd.

Chu Jiangyue browsed her System Mall, but nothing unlocked quite suited Shen Zhigui’s needs.

"I’ll owe you then, let you know next time something new arrives."

Since Shen Zhigui hadn’t specified compensation, it didn’t seem appropriate to offer ordinary hotel goods.

He could certainly afford those.

Shen Zhigui nodded, fully agreeable to her arrangements.

Maybe even Chu Jiangyue didn’t realize, but she showed Shen Zhigui more patience than with others.

In no time, they reached Chu Jiangyue’s cabin, handing him a hoe: "I’ll stop here, call on me if needed again."

Chu Jiangyue took the hoe back: "Thank you, next time let’s have dinner."

Picking up the spade and hoe, she entered the cabin.

Inside, Granny Hua was still busy in the kitchen, while elsewhere was impeccably tidy to a point it barely looked lived-in, resembling more a showhouse.
