Chapter 633: Couples’ Trip
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
A semester passed just like that. Yun Xi’s university gave them a three-month holiday. Zhou Lin’s army also gave them a few days’ holidays for the first time. The two of them planned to take advantage of this holiday to go on a couple’s trip.
The place the two of them went to was neither too far nor too close. The final result of their discussion was to let Zhou Lin drive himself.
At present, the hotel industry had yet to develop. Yun Xi felt that the hotel was particularly dirty and messy. Especially since she and Zhou Lin had not met for a long time, it was inevitable that she could not help it!
Yun Xi was also afraid that there were hidden cameras in these hotels. Currently, the mobile phone had not developed to the extent of a smartphone, so it was impossible to identify whether there were cameras in the rooms.
In the end, they decided to book a boarding house!!!
Staying in a boarding house was better than staying in a hotel!
Boarding houses had not yet developed into a business. It was just a fledgling industry. Before this, Yun Xi had prepared some strategies and also asked some people about the contact information of the local boarding house owners.
They had already mailed Yun Xi pictures of the room in advance and had also agreed on the price. They were just waiting for the two sides to meet to reach a deal!
Yun Xi could not help but sigh. In this era where there were no smartphones, whatever they did would not be as convenient in the future.
Zhou Lin’s driving was especially steady. Even on the small road, Yun Xi did not feel the slightest bit of turbulence in the car. This might also have something to do with the car’s powerful performance!
The two of them set off at 6:00 AM and arrived at their original destination at 2:00 PM. A short and fat man was already waiting for them at the entrance of the scenic area.
“Hey, you must be the distinguished guests who booked the accommodation here half a month in advance, right? I have been waiting for you here for a long time!”
As expected of the business owner, he took the initiative to greet them warmly.
“Is there any luggage that you need help with? I can help you with it! There are rugged roads ahead, I’m afraid we won’t be able to get in. Let’s park in the parking lot nearby!”
Li Li, the owner of the boarding house reminded Zhou Lin that he had never been here before, so he followed Li Li’s instructions.
“There’s no extra luggage. There’s only this suitcase. I can do it myself.”
Li Li looked at Zhou Lin’s muscular body and stopped talking.
“If we go past the bungalow in front, the bungalow at the back will be where we’ll be staying today. It might still be some distance away. Please bear with us for now. We really have no choice in a small place like this!”
Li Li scratched his head, hoping that the distinguished guest who had come from afar would understand him.
“That’s not right, boss! When we were negotiating earlier, you mailed the photos of the interior of the room. The interior of the room that I saw in the photos didn’t look like this.”
Yun Xi compared the photos with the furnishings in the room and revealed a dissatisfied expression.
“This…” the boss looked troubled.
“Our small shop is located in a remote area and not many people know about this place, so the prices of all the rooms in my shop are basically similar. Recently, for some unknown reason, many tourists have come to our shop together! Therefore, the price of the room is also rising.”
Li Li started to explain his reason and pretended to be in a difficult position.
“The room that you booked before was priced at this price, but in the past few days, the price of the rooms here has increased, so the room that you booked before has already been rented by other customers at an even more expensive price. Now, this is the only room left.”
The implication was that business was particularly good at the moment. It was considered not bad for them to provide a room.
Yun Xi looked at Li Li’s particularly unsightly manner and felt that this business of his would not be able to operate for long.
“Even though the business has been booming recently, we had clearly stated our business intentions on the phone previously and it could be considered that we had already come to an agreement! This sudden change of yours can be considered as not keeping your promise!”
Zhou Lin’s expression did not show his emotions as he argued with Li Li.
