Chapter 478: 223 Paparazzi (Seventh Watch)_2
Ming Jing hooked up the corners of her mouth, with a warm and clean smile.
As Qu Feitai was stunned, Ming Jing and Xie Zhen left the airport under the protection of Zhao Heng and Song Yinzhang on their left and right, this time the paparazzi didn’t stop her. Ming Jing was not a famous celebrity, so ordinary people wouldn’t rush over for autographs and photos. They just watched from a distance and secretly took pictures of her.
Ming Jing and the others smoothly got into a commercial vehicle on the side of the road, “My lady, my name is Shen Hui, Mr. Shen assigned me to be in charge of your itinerary in Jingzhou. The hotel where you will stay has also been arranged for you. It is opposite the Foreign Language High School. I will take you to the hotel for a rest now.”
The competition was held at Jingzhou Foreign Language High School, which represents the highest level of teaching conditions in Jingzhou and even the whole country. It is also a major supply unit for competitions among middle school students in the country, especially with outstanding achievements in mathematics competitions. Therefore, in recent years, the school has been hosting the Winter Camp.
Shen Zhou had already arranged everything in Jingzhou in advance. This Shen Hui was the representative of Shenzhou Group’s Jingzhou branch, but now he was more than happy to be a driver for a high school student.
Ming Jing smiled calmly, “Thank you, Uncle Shen, for your hard work.”
“It’s not hard work, taking care of you is my responsibility.”
Ming Jing looked toward the airport exit as Qu Feitai was protected by airport security and quickly walked out of the airport, got into a sedan, and soon sped away.
Ming Jing retracted her gaze, “Let’s go.”
“Miss, we came out late and missed the excitement. It seems there was a big star on the same plane as us, but I don’t know which big star it was?” Xiao Fang, dragging two big suitcases, said excitedly.
She had grown up in Liuxian Town since she was young, and this was her first experience in such a big city. To her, celebrities were like the distant moon.
“A big star?” Liu Muxue frowned. The crowd hadn’t dispersed yet, and she heard the young girls chattering excitedly with disdain.
Suddenly, she heard a strange and somewhat familiar name, “Qu Feitai?”
Liu Muxue didn’t care much about celebrities, flirty actors and actresses, but this Qu Feitai had left a deep impression on her, because he and Ming Jing had a “close relationship.”
She grabbed a person and asked, “Where is Qu Feitai?”
The other person flinched from her unfriendly face, shook off her hand, and replied, “Are you crazy? Of course he left a long time ago, did you expect him to stay behind for a photo with you?” Then rolled their eyes and walked away.
In Jingzhou, wealthy people were everywhere, but true wealth was actually low-key. Liu Muxue’s dazzling designer clothes were seen as a sign of a nouveau riche lifestyle, lacking taste and refinement.
Liu Muxue took a deep breath, trying to control her anger.
The airport lobby crowd dispersed quickly, and Liu Muxue stepped out. The cold wind blowing made her feel weak.
“I hate Jingzhou.” Liu Muxue grimaced, complaining angrily.
Xiao Fang took out a coat and draped it over Liu Muxue, “Miss, put on your clothes quickly. Don’t catch a cold.”
The two took a taxi to the hotel, and Xiao Fang said, “Before coming out, Uncle Liu gave me a contact number, saying that it was for Miss’ cousin in Jingzhou, who is very capable. If you need anything, just contact him.”
Xiao Fang took out the paper slip Uncle Liu gave her, “Right, his name is Liu Xiangyue.”
Liu Muxue sneered, “A grown man with such a sissy name.”
“Miss! You can’t say that!” Liu Xiangyue is said to be very powerful. He was an Exam Topper in Jingzhou and graduated from the Foreign Language University. He won the gold medal on behalf of Hua Country in the International Olympics Competition, defeating teams from other countries. He must be very experienced…”
Liu Muxue glared at her, “If he’s so great, am I not good enough?””Of course, Miss is even more amazing. After all, she’s a prodigy and has always had great grades without studying, hehe.”
The offspring of the Liu family have exceptionally good genes, exhibiting a great deal of talent in their studies.
Only then did Liu Muxue feel that her breathing had eased a little. Upon arriving at the hotel, Xiao Fang went to the front desk to check in.
Although it was her first time in a big city, she was well-acquainted with worldly affairs since childhood in the Liu family and was not shy, always behaving confidently and comfortably.
She frowned and asked, “Aren’t there any presidential suites available?”
The receptionist smiled apologetically, “I’m sorry, our hotel’s presidential suite has been fully booked in advance, and only standard rooms are left.”
Xiao Fang turned to look at Liu Muxue, who took off her sunglasses and walked over with a click. With a slap, she put the sunglasses on the marble counter, her eyebrows furrowed: “I’ll pay extra, as long as you make the presidential suite available, just name the price.”
The receptionist’s mouth twitched. Those who could afford the presidential suite wouldn’t care for your money.
Seeing that the young girl was of a certain age but still domineering and arrogant, the receptionist apologized with a smile and said, “Miss, that’s not quite appropriate, is it?”
“What’s so inappropriate about it? Just give me the guest’s phone number, and I’ll talk to them.”
That would be even more against the rules, and the receptionist was too afraid to do that, finding himself in a difficult situation.
“Are you going to give it to me or not? Do you want me to file a complaint against you?!” Liu Muxue slapped the counter again, this time using too much force, hurting her palm, she gasped in pain and glared at the receptionist.
The receptionist was at his wits’ end and thought for a moment before saying, “Miss, it’s not that I don’t want to help you, but our hotel has its rules and cannot disclose guest’s information. Please don’t make things difficult for me.”
In fact, they lacked experience and should have booked a hotel online in advance to avoid this situation.
However, Liu Zhangshen didn’t think that far ahead and thought that as long as he had money, any problem could be solved. He gave his daughter an unlimited black card and left her to her own devices.
Because the hotel was adjacent to the Foreign Language High School, candidates from all over the country stayed at this hotel, including hotels within a kilometer radius, leaving Liu Muxue with no rooms at other hotels.
When people are under someone else’s roof, they have to bow their heads. Liu Muxue had no choice but to stay in a standard room and share it with Xiao Fang.
Liu Muxue had been spoiled since childhood. In Jiangzhou, she would only stay in a presidential suite. She asked Xiao Fang to take their luggage back to the room first, then took the elevator to the top floor.
Upon finding the presidential suite numbered 888, a girl just happened to walk out.
The girl wore a washed-out white jacket and jeans, with thick glasses on her nose, having a shabby and poorly-dressed appearance. Anger rushed to Liu Muxue’s head, and she stormed over.
Bluntly asking, “Xie Zhen? So it’s you who’s staying here? Looking at your shabby attire, can you afford it?”
Seeing Liu Muxue, Xie Zhen was so frightened that she nearly lost her soul.
The fear of being dominated by Liu Muxue was still vivid in her memory. She had never seen such a domineering and arrogant girl before; it was beyond imagination.
With her legs trembling involuntarily, Xie Zhen stuttered in explanation, “I… I am not, I didn’t…”
However, Liu Muxue didn’t give her a chance to explain, chin raised in a haughty manner, she said, “Give the room to me, and I’ll pay you double the original price.”
Her face appeared as if she were graciously bestowing a favor to the other party that they should be grateful for.
