How can I justify myself as a Magnate if I don't indulge myself?

Watching Gu Heng’s car gradually drive away, a look of relief spread across Lin Ran’s delicate face...

"Luckily, this guy was easy to talk to, or else taking a break just to relax and then having to file police reports would really be a nuisance..."

After saying that, Lin Ran picked up her phone once more and started taking pictures of the distant ancient town, occasionally turning the camera for a gorgeous selfie, her smile bright and radiant, seemingly unaffected by the thousand dollars she had just lost...

....

....

Meanwhile, Gu Heng had parked his car at the entrance of Wuzhen’s Alila Hotel.

This hotel was one that Gu Heng had chosen after a long search on Dianping...

The reason he chose this one was not because it was highly ranked but for one single reason...

That was its expense...

Other hotels had a maximum per person cost of only a few hundred, not going over a thousand, whereas the Alila Hotel’s per person average price exceeded 1500...

In Gu Heng’s philosophy of consumption, cost-performance ratio was only relative, after all, he understood the truth of ’you get what you pay for,’ in Hua Country, expensive items might not always be the best, but the best items definitely are the most expensive.

Since he was out having fun, why not indulge properly?

Being frugal while traveling meant being on a limited budget, but if one had money and still chose to stay at ordinary places, wouldn’t that just be purely foolish?

Thinking this, he parked his car in the designated parking area next to the hotel and walked down.

The peak tourist season in Wuzhen was between March and May. Now, in the dead of winter just days before the New Year, not many chose to travel, hence there weren’t many customers at the hotel entrance...

An occasional chilly breeze would rise, stirring the few withered leaves of some unnameable ornamental trees at the hotel entrance, and the gentle rustling added a touch of solemn tranquility...

This kind of feeling was something you couldn’t experience in densely populated large cities like Hang City.

After parking the car, Gu Heng directly stepped onto the stairs and headed towards the hotel lobby.

He had barely stepped onto the stairs when the welcomers at the lobby door had very thoughtfully pushed open the clear glass doors...

"Welcome."

Gu Heng smiled politely at the two welcomers and headed straight for the reception desk.

The receptionist seemed well-trained, her smile appearing early, two small dimples hanging on her cheeks, sweetly greeting Gu Heng, "Hello, Mr., welcome to Wuzhen’s Alila Hotel."

Although the receptionist wasn’t highly attractive, her sweet smile effortlessly dissolved the slight frustration Gu Heng felt from the scratch on his new car.

"Do you have any rooms available now?"

"Yes, Mr."

"I would like to book one."

Upon receiving Gu Heng’s instructions, the receptionist hastily asked, "What’s your surname, sir?"

"Gu."

"Mr. Gu, our hotel has three types of rooms available. Which one would you like?"

Listening to the introduction by the receptionist, Gu Heng asked softly, "What are the three types?"

"The first type is a standard suite with a small courtyard, 1699 per night.

The second type is a multi-room suite with a private small courtyard, 3699 per night.

The last type has a private courtyard, multiple suites, a private Sap treatment room, and a private swimming pool, priced at 6999 per night, similar to a presidential suite concept in business hotels.

Which one would Mr. Gu like to choose?"

After hearing the introduction, Gu Heng did not hesitate and directly said, "The third one."

"Okay, sir. Please present your ID card, and I will register you."

The receptionist did not feign shock in an overplayed manner; instead, she efficiently proceeded with Gu Heng’s check-in process...

A hotel receptionist is there to handle room registrations; they’ve encountered countless such scenarios, so why would they be easily shocked?

"Mr. Gu, how many days will you be staying?"

Gu Heng pondered for a moment, then slowly said, "Let’s start with 3 days for now."

After clicking the last program on the computer, the receptionist’s face returned to its sweet smile, "I wonder if Mr. Gu would like to have a personal butler service?"

"Personal butler?"

Gu Heng had heard the term in various TV shows and novels, but he didn’t know much about it.

"Yes, a personal butler, our hotel’s personal butlers serve you 24 hours a day, and each holds a certificate as a physical therapist and tour guide. They can offer you private therapy to recuperate your energy and spirit after you’ve tired from sightseeing.

Moreover, they are well-acquainted with the surroundings of Wuzhen; Mr. Gu can use them as your exclusive guides during your tours, which could also save you some guide fees."

Private therapy?

This caught Gu Heng’s attention!

"Are the personal butlers male or female?"

"There are both male and female, it mainly depends on your choice, Mr. Gu."

"Alright, then help me arrange one. Female."

"Okay, Mr. Gu, the daily fee for the personal butler is 1599 yuan."

Gu Heng waved his hand, signaling the receptionist to go ahead and arrange it for him.

It wasn’t that he was showing off, but indeed his balance of nearly ten million made it difficult for him to feel much about such numbers...

"Okay, Mr. Gu, it’s all arranged now, and after a 10% discount, the total comes to 23000 yuan."

Twenty-three thousand?

It indeed seemed quite affordable...

Bear in mind this place is a renowned national tourist destination, even the off-season prices are surely more than those city hotels, but it’s only twenty-three thousand yuan...

Then are those online claims charging tens of thousands per night for a presidential suite real or fake?

Gu Heng couldn’t be bothered to guess anymore; if he had the chance, he would experience it himself someday.

After briskly paying, the receptionist respectfully handed over the room card to Gu Heng, "This is the room card; anywhere within the room that requires smart access can be unlocked with this card.

Also, the personal butler arranged for you will be arriving shortly; Mr. Gu can rest in the lobby for a bit, and your personal butler will take you to your private courtyard soon."

Gu Heng nodded and asked, "You guys have a valet service, right?"

"That’s right."

Hearing this, Gu Heng tossed his car keys to her, "My car is still parked in the temporary parking spot at the hotel entrance; please have someone move it to the parking lot."

Upon receiving Gu Heng’s car keys, the receptionist’s expression grew even more respectful.

"Certainly, sir. We will have someone return the keys to you after parking your car."

While she was inputting Gu Heng’s identification number, she intentionally took note, recognizing that this Gu Heng was born in the year 2000...

It might not be extraordinary for someone in their twenties to stay in a hotel costing thousands per night...

But someone in their twenties who can afford a Bentley definitely is extraordinary...

A change in attitude is only human nature.

Even though she knew Gu Heng’s wealth had nothing to do with her, she would still subconsciously lower her stance.

It’s not about flattering but akin to how ordinary people would show a certain level of respect upon meeting Ma Yun on the street; it’s just a usual manner of thinking...
