Apocalypse: The Hotel She Runs Is the Only Paradise

Chapter 45

"Ding! Congratulations, host. Task completed. Rewards: Unlock rooms 506-5010; Upgrade rooms 406-4010 once; Unlock self-service restaurant, unlock unlimited access to all dishes in the self-service restaurant; Unlock five new products in the supermarket; Unlock one fruit store."

Having completed another task, Gu Wanyin felt delighted.

The supermarket was also located on the first floor. She went to take a look, and it was quite spacious inside, with many shelves.

However, many shelves were still empty, likely requiring the completion of future tasks to unlock new products.

As for the five products rewarded from this task, they were various flavored potato chips, spicy snacks, chocolate, cookies, and Lao Gan Ma chili sauce.

Upon seeing that even Lao Gan Ma was available, Gu Wanyin immediately informed Dong Yue.

She remembered that Dong Yue had mentioned before how much she loved Lao Gan Ma before the apocalypse, using it to mix with noodles or rice.

Now it was actually available for purchase in the supermarket.

Dong Yue was overjoyed when she saw Lao Gan Ma in the supermarket.

It wasn't expensive either, costing only four points for a jar.

Although the jar wasn't large, it could last for quite a few days!

She could buy a bowl of rice from the cafeteria, mix it with Lao Gan Ma, and that would be a meal.

This way, she could save some points.

She also wanted to buy new clothes for her parents.

Before she could finish rejoicing, Gu Wanyin told her that a new self-service restaurant had opened.

The self-service restaurant was located opposite the hot pot restaurant, and it was quite large.

There was a card-swiping station at the entrance. Once you swiped your card, you could enter. In the center was a long table with various foods arranged around it.

There were all kinds of snacks, various flavored noodles, fried noodles, fried rice, fried vermicelli, as well as some braised dishes, cold dishes, smoked meat, hand-grabbed pancakes, steamed buns, sandwiches, bone soup, seafood soup, and more.

There was a wide variety, and for eight points, one could eat as much as they wanted for two hours.

There was no limit to the number of times one could come each day, meaning that as long as you had enough points, you could stay in the self-service restaurant for all twenty-four hours of the day without anyone minding.

Some dishes in the self-service restaurant overlapped with those in other stores, such as egg fried rice, which was also available in the cafeteria.

Gu Wanyin tried it and found that the egg fried rice in the self-service restaurant was slightly inferior in taste compared to the cafeteria's, but only in comparison. The taste was still quite good.

However, items like hot pot, barbecue, and rice noodles weren't available in the self-service restaurant.

But most importantly, you could eat as much as you wanted for two hours!

There was also plenty of meat available.

For those with big appetites, it was practically heaven.

As soon as the self-service restaurant opened, business was booming. Many people came every day, with some even eating all three meals there.

Some people naturally had big appetites, and after experiencing the apocalypse, their need for food was even greater.

While they had to be frugal with their points in other restaurants and couldn't order too much, there were no such worries in the self-service restaurant.

Although they couldn't have hot pot or barbecue, and the taste might be slightly inferior to other restaurants, the food in the self-service restaurant was all-you-can-eat!

In two hours, they could eat quite a lot!

The self-service restaurant greatly satisfied some people's need for food.

...

"Ding! New task unlocked: Recruit new tenants for rooms 501-505, no time limit, no restrictions on guest identity. Task rewards: Unlock rooms 601-605; Upgrade rooms 501-505 once; Unlock five unlimited dishes; Unlock five types of unlimited fruits; Unlock milk tea shop, unlock unlimited access to all milk teas in the milk tea shop. Note: All rooms on the sixth floor are king-size bed rooms, with a maximum occupancy of two people, room rate is fifteen points per night."

Gu Wanyin received another new task from the system.

The rooms on the fifth floor were all family rooms. Currently, only 501 and 502 were occupied. Room 501 housed a couple with their ten-year-old daughter, while room 502 had three generations of a family.

To complete this task, she needed to recruit tenants for the remaining three rooms.

However, Gu Wanyin wasn't usually worried about such tasks.

The hotel had already gained a good reputation, and she would occasionally drive to other places to promote it.

Moreover, the hotel guests would actively help promote the hotel when they went out.

So the rooms would fill up quickly.

What she was thinking about now was how to deal with Gu Chengyu and An Cairou from Muruo Base.

No matter what, she didn't want to have her mood disturbed by people sent by An Cairou again.

Besides, if An Cairou found a loophole in the future, it could be troublesome.

So she had to think of a way to make An Cairou give up this idea completely.

...

Ning Jie had been living in constant unease.

Remembering An Cairou's previous instructions, she knew she should try to get close to Cola and Hamburger, but looking at those two adorable children, she couldn't bring herself to do it.

So when she left the hotel again and met the high-level ability user sent by An Cairou, she anxiously asked about An Cairou's attitude.

She hoped that after learning how formidable the hotel truly was, An Cairou would abandon this idea.

But the words of the high-level ability user made her heart sink heavily.

"Miss An said she must obtain this hotel," the ability user said. "Although this place is powerful and the owner is formidable, there are many methods, such as those two children."

"But they're so young, how could I bring myself to do that!" Ning Jie exclaimed emotionally. "If something dangerous happens to them after taking them out of the hotel, can Miss An take responsibility for their safety?"

The high-level ability user was silent for a moment, then said, "Given Miss An's personality... she only wants to obtain this hotel. Those two children are just tools for her profit."

Ning Jie laughed coldly, "They are two children, two living human lives! Not her tools!"

"I naturally don't agree with her methods either," the ability user said. "But think about it, your sister is still in her hands. If you don't do as she says... what will happen to your sister?"

Ning Jie's face stiffened.

"After all, we've served her for so long," she said bitterly. "Would she really harm my sister?"

"What do you think?" the ability user asked her in return. "You've been by her side for so long, you should know better than me what kind of person she is."

After saying this, he looked around and said, "I have to go. It won't be good if someone sees me in a while. Remember, Miss An wants you to gain the trust of those two children as soon as possible and bring them out of the hotel. Otherwise, no one can guarantee your sister's safety."

With that, the ability user left.

Ning Jie slowly crouched down and began to cry helplessly.

She didn't want to harm anyone, especially two such young children, but... what about her sister?

Just then, she suddenly heard footsteps behind her.
