Chapter 973: Xu Hongdou Said, Let's Go to the Hotel and Chat Slowly

~6 min read 1,021 words

Xu Hongdou's words clearly carried a hint of threat.

Because from the tone of the man's mother just now, Xu Hongdou heard some impatience.

Although Xu Hongdou knew,

if the man really was a cancer patient with not much time left,

as parents, they might feel anxious and worried because of it,

but,

no matter how anxious and worried they were, it shouldn't have led to them being like this now.

Xu Hongdou didn't ask for much; she only needed three days.

If, within these three days, Xu Hongdou found no problems,

then Xu Hongdou would no longer intervene in this matter. If Chen Nanxing was willing, then let them get married; Xu Hongdou would not only offer her blessings but also give a big red envelope to express her goodwill.

In the future, after the man and woman were buried and at rest, Xu Hongdou would also often visit their graves to chat with them.

So,

all Xu Hongdou wanted was just three days.

For ordinary people, it really wasn't much.

Even for a cancer patient, as long as they weren't about to take their last breath, three days was certainly possible.

When Chen Nanxing first entered the hospital, she said she wouldn't live a month, yet in the end, a very good turnaround occurred, and her life was estimated to be extended by more than a year...

So,

Xu Hongdou believed that no matter what, the man definitely had these three days.

But,

why was the man's mother so aggressive, forcing Chen Nanxing to agree to this marriage right now? That seemed a bit too extreme.

Perhaps,

Xu Hongdou's words made the man's father realize something.

Thus,

the man's father hurriedly stopped the man's mother, who wanted to speak again,

forced a smile, and then nodded, saying, "Alright, it's fine. Three days it is; we will wait for you."

"Mm, okay, thank you, Uncle and Auntie."

Xu Hongdou smiled and responded, then took out her phone: "Uncle and Auntie, it's really not easy for you to come all this way; I suppose you won't have time to properly tour the Imperial Capital. How about this? I'll book your return tickets to the airport; consider it my apology to you both."

As Xu Hongdou spoke, she opened the ticket-booking system on her phone and then asked, "Uncle and Auntie, where are you staying now? Is it close to the airport?"

Upon hearing this, the man's mother looked deeply at Xu Hongdou, already becoming wary of her.

The man's father waved his hand with a smile and then said, "No need, thank you, Hongdou. Tao Tao's mother and I indeed haven't been to the Imperial Capital many times. Since we agreed to wait for you three days, Tao Tao's mother won't go back for now; we'll tour the Imperial Capital these few days, treating it as a short trip."

Not going back?

Upon hearing this, Xu Hongdou looked at the man's parents again with some surprise.

They claimed their son had cancer and wanted to force Sister Nannan to make a decision as soon as possible,

yet when Xu Hongdou was even willing to buy them round-trip tickets,

they said they weren't in a hurry and could wait three days.

In that case,

counting the two days for going back and forth, it would total about five days.

Would they really be at ease being away from their son for five days?

Even when Xu Hongdou was busy during this period, she went to the hospital to see Chen Nanxing at least once every three days.

Not seeing their own son for five or six days,

weren't they really worried?

Suppressing her thoughts,

Xu Hongdou smiled, then took out her business card and handed it to the man's father with both hands: "Uncle Xiong, since you and Auntie have decided to stay in the Imperial Capital for now, why not stay at our hotel?"

"Although our hotel is a five-star hotel, because I am a hotel employee, I have monthly staff welfare rooms available, regardless of relationship. A bit later, you and Auntie can come to my hotel, and I will take you both to check in."

······ Begging for flowers ······

"Is that so?"

The man's father, Uncle Xiong, carefully looked at Xu Hongdou's business card and then was slightly surprised: "The Waldorf Hotel? I've heard of this hotel. Staying one night costs several thousand; the price is quite high, and the class is very high. Hongdou, are you still the Executive Director of the hotel?"

Upon hearing the four words "Executive Director,"

the man's mother's eyes clearly changed, then became relatively softer, and her entire demeanor was no longer as aggressive as before.

Although Chen Nanxing's parents might not know the meaning of these four words "Executive Director,"

the man's parents, from a well-off family, still knew the weight of these four words.

Furthermore, since Xu Hongdou was the Executive Director at this famous international five-star hotel, the Waldorf, her connections and background must be quite formidable.

Seeing that the man's mother's gaze at her finally became soft,

Xu Hongdou smiled slightly and then said, "Uncle, Auntie, actually, the discount on our staff welfare rooms is quite substantial. If you and Auntie come to stay, I should be able to give you a minimum of thirty percent off. Calculated, it's only one or two thousand per night; for the Imperial Capital, that's almost the price of an express hotel."

"Yes, one or two thousand is really not expensive for the Imperial Capital."

Upon hearing this, the man's father was somewhat tempted, so he looked at the man's mother and asked, "How about we stay at Hongdou's hotel? Look, free buffet, free gym, and free swimming pool; the environment is still very nice."

"Then, alright."

The man's mother hesitated for a moment, then nodded in agreement and looked at Xu Hongdou, smiling: "Then it's trouble for you, Hongdou."

"No trouble."

Xu Hongdou smiled and responded, then stood up directly: "Then since that's the case, how about we go to the hotel first? Let's chat slowly at the hotel!"

……ten feet.
