Chapter 727: You Actually Look Quite Handsome

Hearing him say he was handsome, Cai Xiaotang nodded with satisfaction.

The elevator reached the first floor, and the two walked out one after the other.

Liu Qingze pondered for a moment, deliberately mimicking her tone as he asked, "Then what do you plan to do later? After all, you still have to work together... This shouldn't be the first time she's said such things about you, right? Don't you mature adults believe in maintaining peace on the surface, no matter what?"

He deliberately emphasized the words "mature adults."

Detecting the teasing in his tone, Cai Xiaotang gave him an amused, sidelong glance.

"I said I'm a mature adult, but I never said I had to remain mature at all times. She hasn't said little about me in the past, but I've always heard it from others' mouths. This is the first time I've actually encountered it, and since she spoke so nastily, why should I endure it? At worst, I'll just change companies. Do you think your Cheng would let me go?"

Speaking of her profession, Cai Xiaotang's tone regained its previous confidence.

Liu Qingze's gaze couldn't help but linger on her, and his heart, which was already not very well-behaved, immediately showed signs of accelerating again.

It was this very expression right now...

He had always just thought of her as a very interesting person before.

But now... it seemed a bit different.

It was as if she possessed some kind of magic that could attract people's attention; every move she made radiated a different kind of charm...

"Hey, have you been stunned silly by your sister's handsomeness?"

Seeing Liu Qingze staring blankly at her, Cai Xiaotang couldn't help but wave her hand in front of him.

Liu Qingze instantly snapped back to reality, a flash of unnatural expression crossing his face, before he mimicked her tone from earlier to retort: "That wouldn't go that far, but sister, you are beautiful, young, and capable. Even if Cheng drives that old lady away, he wouldn't let you go!"

"Not bad! I'll give you credit for knowing how to talk!"

Cai Xiaotang's mood finally improved, and as the two spoke, they walked out together.

Cai Xiaotang had driven there in the morning, and just as she was about to tell Liu Qingze to get in the car, she saw him walking straight toward a motorcycle that looked very cool and flashy.

"Did you... ride this here today?"

As she spoke, she noticed that he had even changed his clothes today, and it wasn't the shirt and suit from last week.

"Student Liu Qingze, are you being a bit rebellious? Dressing like this on a workday?"

Cai Xiaotang teased him amusedly.

Liu Qingze was already straddling the motorcycle, his face indifferent: "It's just going to inspect a hotel anyway, not attending a meeting. If you don't say anything, who would know I'm from the Liu Family?"

"Fine, suit yourself. This outfit is indeed quite handsome. See you in a bit then."

Cai Xiaotang hadn't intended to manage him anyway, so she pulled the door open and got into the car.

Liu Qingze, however, felt a little happy because of her compliment just now.

He was praised for being handsome.

Not bad.

The clothes weren't worn in vain.

Watching her car drive away with mixed feelings, Liu Qingze started his own vehicle this time.

Not long after, the two arrived at the first hotel they had visited initially.

The rectification work was proceeding rapidly; once one hotel had a template, the others would all follow quickly.

Cai Xiaotang and Liu Qingze arrived almost at the same time.

Standing at the hotel entrance, Cai Xiaotang couldn't help but ask: "Same as usual today? Not revealing your identity?"

"Yeah, didn't we say we were going to conduct a secret inspection?"

Liu Qingze answered without hesitation.

He hadn't deliberately revealed his identity during this period, and once he started working, he was taciturn, even being mistaken for Cai Xiaotang's assistant by the hotel staff many times.

The two entered the Main Hall together.

Just as they walked through the door, Liu Qingze's phone rang.

"Brother-in-law?"

He lowered his eyes to take a look and discovered it was a call from Qin Yiyan.

Cai Xiaotang knew the two had work matters to discuss, so she immediately said tactfully: "You two talk first, I'll go upstairs first. I'll start with the Presidential Suite as usual."

As she spoke, she turned directly toward the elevator.

Liu Qingze also took the opportunity to walk toward the lounge area, intending to find a quiet place to answer the call.

Cai Xiaotang carried her documents, watching the numbers on the elevator slowly descend.

Her mind, however, was filled with what had just happened.

In fact, the situation wasn't as relaxed as she had claimed.

Although she wouldn't lose her job over this.

But I'm afraid this time, she had truly "become famous in one battle."

Although she loved to argue and make a scene, she usually appeared quite steady at the company, and she didn't form deep friendships with colleagues on a daily basis, just maintaining a superficial peace.

But this incident would definitely spread quickly.

What would happen then?

Would she be ostracized in the office?

Cai Xiaotang let her mind wander, but she didn't feel much worry.

At worst, she'd just change jobs!

It was just that it would take time to adapt to new colleagues and a new environment, which was a bit troublesome...

Just as Cai Xiaotang was thinking this, her peripheral vision caught the elevator door having already opened a crack.

She hurriedly snapped back to reality, and just as she was about to walk in, she saw a middle-aged man standing inside.

As their eyes met, the man's eyes lit up almost immediately!

Then, seeing the materials in Cai Xiaotang's hand, he took the initiative to greet her: "Hello, you must be the Evaluator invited by our hotel this time!"

"Yes, hello."

Having been recognized, Cai Xiaotang smiled faintly and greeted the other person.

But she didn't expect to have her hand grabbed in a firm grip!

"Hello, hello, my surname is Du, I am the hotel's Lobby Manager. May I ask what this beautiful lady's surname is?"

Every hair on Cai Xiaotang's body stood up in an instant; seeing the green light almost glowing in the man's eyes, she immediately understood the situation.

Damn...

What kind of day is this?

Just finished teaching a gossiping woman a lesson, and now here comes an Old Scoundrel?

She took a deep breath, barely maintaining the smile on her face, and yanked her hand away.

"Hello, Manager Du, my surname is Cai."

As Cai Xiaotang spoke, she moved to the side without a trace.

But she didn't expect that Manager Du was like a piece of chewing gum, quickly sticking to her side again.

"Aren't you going out, Manager Du? We've already reached the first floor."

Cai Xiaotang suppressed her temper to remind him.

But who would have thought that as soon as she finished speaking, Manager Du pressed the button for the floor she was going to!

"Since Miss Cai is here, of course I must represent the hotel to properly host you. I heard that our upgrades start from the Presidential Suite; it just so happens I can accompany Miss Cai up to take a look."

Manager Du smiled "kindly," his eyes already unable to stop wandering over the small section of wrist Cai Xiaotang had exposed.

Cai Xiaotang: "..."

Fine.

She would endure it for now.

This Old Scoundrel had better be working seriously!

Otherwise, don't blame her for being impolite!

It just so happens that her anger from earlier hasn't dissipated yet!

She nodded casually and did not continue the conversation.

The Presidential Suite is on the top floor, and it takes some time to go up.

Cai Xiaotang stared at the rising numbers, just wanting to get out of here as quickly as possible.

Immediately after, she heard the person beside her strike up a conversation: "Miss Cai, I have dealt with a few people in your line of work before, but this is the first time I've met someone as beautiful as you. You shouldn't have been in this line of work for long, right? How come I haven't seen you before?"

"Mm, not very long."

Out of politeness, Cai Xiaotang gave a reluctant response.

With a "ding" sound.

The elevator door finally opened.

Cai Xiaotang immediately walked out without looking back.

She had originally intended to shake off the person behind her directly.

But she didn't expect that, after only two seconds, the other party would stick to her again like a piece of chewing gum.
