Chapter 488 - 487: Sijunzi Themed Hotel

——L: Mm, my girlfriend really is the best. As a reward, I’ll bring you a prize tomorrow.

Lu Yunque walked forward. He was also curious how Yun Zijin had managed to grow such a huge one.

The two he had taken back to plant himself, while not exactly just one person tall, looked like sons meeting their father compared to Yun Zijin’s two trees.

"Did you use some kind of special nutrient solution?"

Otherwise, why else would only Yun Zijin’s have grown so big?

"No, I don’t usually tend to the garden. The gardener and Aunt Wang handle it. If you have any questions, I can ask them to come over."

"It’s fine. A person’s height is already about right. Any bigger and it won’t fit in my office."

Putting one in the office during winter would make the whole room toasty warm. It’s more environmentally friendly and comfortable than turning on the heat.

Since Lu Yunque said it wasn’t necessary, Yun Zijin didn’t insist.

In November, Dijing had already entered winter. Having a Fire Tree nearby at a time like this was the very definition of comfort.

Yun Zijin walked over to the swing chair next to the Fire Tree and sat down, patting the empty space beside her. "You come sit too!"

"Didn’t you say you wanted to walk off dinner? How are you going to do that sitting on a swing?"

Lu Yunque looked at Yun Zijin with amusement, but in the end, he did as she said and sat down.

"We just walked a lap, didn’t we? We can rest here for a bit, then it’ll be about time to go back."

Whatever Yun Zijin said, she was right. Lu Yunque didn’t argue with her; he just needed to go along with it.

After their walk, the sun had completely set, and the sky quickly grew dark.

Lu Yunque, however, lingered at Villa No. 1 until 10 p.m. before finally leaving reluctantly and heading toward Villa No. 2.

In her room, Yun Zijin looked at her peach-pink cheeks and splashed some water on her face, trying to cool down.

’Ugh! You really can’t spoil some people, or they’ll just get more and more out of hand.’

After calming herself down, Yun Zijin washed up, then sat on her bed. She opened the system’s virtual screen, set an alarm, and began to wait for the weekly spending mission rewards to be distributed tonight.

Midnight.

[Congratulations to the Host for completing the weekly cumulative spending mission of ￥24,000,000.00. Mission rewards acquired: Congratulations to the Host for receiving a 5x cash rebate. ￥144,000,000 has been deposited into the Host’s savings card. You have received 10 packs of Moonlight Grass Seeds, 10 tins of Lingwu tea, 1 pair of Mutton Fat Jade Dragon and Phoenix Pendants, 10 tins of Slimming Beauty Goddess Tea Raw Materials, and the complete ownership of the Sijunzi Themed Hotel in Dijing. All related documents and certificates have been sent to the system inventory. Please check for them.]

Yun Zijin’s eyes were immediately drawn to the Sijunzi Themed Hotel.

The last time she went, she had remarked that the owner of the Sijunzi Themed Hotel was a brilliant businessman. She never expected that Randomly Spend would now make it hers!

’Randomly Spend? Spendy?’

As Yun Zijin expected, Randomly Spend still gave no reaction.

Except for when it was issuing missions and distributing rewards, Randomly Spend was as silent as the grave, completely unresponsive.

’Still, how could the owner of the Sijunzi Themed Hotel bear to just hand over a cash-cow hotel like this?’

Yun Zijin found the documents for the Sijunzi Themed Hotel in her system inventory. When she saw the previous owner’s name, she had a sudden realization.

The Sijunzi Themed Hotel had actually been opened by a member of a side branch of the Sheng Family, who had leveraged the Sheng Family’s influence.

Oh, to be precise, he had leveraged Sheng Tian’s influence.

Because Sheng Tian had repeatedly caused trouble for Yun Zijin, she had now been ordered not to bother Yun Zijin anymore, and even her monthly allowance had been cut in half.

To make Sheng Tian settle down, Sheng Hao had begun to liquidate and cut back on the businesses associated with her.

Somehow, Randomly Spend had used some unknown method to obtain all ownership rights to the Sijunzi Themed Hotel from Sheng Hao, including but not limited to the land, the entire hotel building, the equity, and so on.

Moreover, when Randomly Spend acquired the hotel, it—perhaps out of some obsessive-compulsive tendency—had directly obtained one hundred percent of the equity.

You have to understand, the Sheng Family side-branch member that Sheng Tian had installed originally only held forty percent of the equity. The rest was divided among various other major and minor shareholders, so he didn’t even have a controlling stake.

If Sheng Tian knew that the Sijunzi Themed Hotel, the most profitable business under her control, had ended up in Yun Zijin’s hands, who knew what kind of expression she would make.

Yun Zijin sent a message to Lu Yunque about her ownership of the Sijunzi Themed Hotel.

——Qingqing Zijing: Um, so, I just found out my team helped me acquire the Sijunzi Themed Hotel.

I think this hotel... originally belonged to Sheng Tian...

Although she imagined Sheng Tian’s expression would be a sight to behold when she heard the news, Yun Zijin didn’t want her relationship to affect the long-standing friendship between the Lu and Sheng families.

Lu Yunque was in his study handling documents when his phone chimed with a notification. DING! He subconsciously glanced at the screen.

Seeing it was a message from Yun Zijin, Lu Yunque’s first reaction was pleasant surprise, but when he saw the time, he frowned slightly.

’It’s already past midnight, and she’s still sending messages. This proves the little rascal hasn’t gone to sleep yet.’

——L: Sheng Hao took the hotel back from the side branch. Although its profits are good, the Sheng Family’s main business isn’t hotels, and he didn’t have the energy to manage it, so he put it up for sale. You acquired it, so it’s yours.

If anyone gives you trouble, tell me, and I’ll take care of it for you.

Finally, are you going to explain why you’re still awake at this hour?

When Yun Zijin received Lu Yunque’s reply, she saw the last sentence and finally remembered to check the time.

’Oops! I was so focused on sending the message that I didn’t notice the time.’

’If I had known, I would have held back and just messaged him tomorrow morning.’

——Qingqing Zijing: You’re not asleep either. Right back at you.

Since you said that, I won’t hold back. But I acquired all of the shares, which is different from when Sheng Tian only had 40%.

One is just having a certain amount of say, while the other is one hundred percent control. The concepts are completely different.

Lu Yunque glanced at Yun Zijin’s reply and chuckled softly.

However, when he saw that Yun Zijin said she had acquired 100% of the equity, he was a little surprised.

After all, the Sijunzi Themed Hotel’s market value was not low. The Sheng family side-branch member’s previous 40% stake had already made him the largest shareholder, and the remaining minor shareholders were a motley crew.

The Sijunzi Themed Hotel was a goose that laid golden eggs; ordinary people would definitely be unwilling to sell off their shares.

He found it hard to believe that she could get the equity from those people without them demanding an exorbitant price.

However, although Lu Yunque was surprised, he wasn’t about to press for every last detail. In any case, the fact that Yun Zijin was able to get it was a testament to her own ability. As her boyfriend, all he needed to do was stand firmly by her side when she needed him.
