Chapter 198: You Still Have to Rely on Yourself

Why is he smiling??? Ning Youyou couldn't understand Chen Jianhai's smile.

Chen Jianhai didn't explain and simply said, "Don't worry. You've had a long day, go get some rest."

Seeing Chen Jianhai's confident demeanor, Ning Youyou didn't ask any more questions and just turned to leave.

Chen Jianhai decided to open the island hotel early, not just for the points, but also to divert the hotel's staff. Lang Ai Hotel was now experiencing extremely high traffic, and if they didn't find a way to divert some of it, something serious would eventually happen.

His primary reason for setting the island hotel's price at 99 yuan per night at the travel agency was to attract some of the hotel's guests to the island hotel.

If you drop the price from 2999 to 99 yuan, there will be a crowd fighting to stay.

But if you raise it from 99 yuan to 2999 yuan, it will definitely drive away a large number of people.

No matter how much they like it or want to stay, no one can accept such a huge difference.

If they want to continue staying, they will have to use the travel agency's one-day tour service.

This way, the island hotel's guests become more flexible, ensuring daily points and also diverting some guests from Lang Ai Hotel, freeing up some space.

It's truly a win-win situation.

"I wonder how many points I'll get tomorrow~" Chen Jianhai rubbed his hands excitedly and went back to his room to enjoy the night view.

"Click~"

Finally, Ning Youyou could relax after a long day and unlocked her room door.

At noon, some tourists unfamiliar with Xiao Majia Island's location asked her to join them for a tour, so she had only picked up her room card but hadn't gone upstairs.

Opening the door and turning on the light, Ning Youyou looked around the guest room in amazement and murmured, "No wonder some people didn't want to go sea fishing in the afternoon."

"With such a nice environment, I wouldn't want to leave either!"

After checking out the room's decor, Ning Youyou was shocked to see the wide-open windows. There were no mosquito nets or screens, yet the room was spotless, not a single insect or mosquito in sight.

"My gosh… is this really a mosquito-free hotel?!"

Determined, Ning Youyou checked along the wall and baseboard seams, "How is this possible?"

"There are no mosquito coils, no insect-repelling flowers, and no repellent scents… Could it be physical insect repellent??"

In her WeChat moments, some friends who did purchasing often recommended a physical insect repellent fan. As long as it was plugged in, the fan could use sound waves to repel mosquitoes.

But after searching all the outlets in the room, she didn't find any plugged-in insect repellent devices.

Instead, she worked up a sweat looking for the repellent device.

"Enough searching, time for a bath~~"

Ning Youyou took out her phone and chose a soothing song. Her room, like Duan Zao's, was a sunset sea view room with a round bathtub on the sunbathing platform. Next to the bathtub was a small storage box neatly filled with candles and dried flower petals.

Humming a tune, Ning Youyou lit candles around the bathtub, scattered petals, and filled the tub with water. It was the time when the evening sky was at its most vivid.

Feeling triumphant, Ning Youyou extended her legs into the bathtub. However, she didn't expect the tub to be so deep, and her legs so short, that she missed a step and fell into the tub. She felt like she was on a slide, spinning in the tub for three full circles before stopping.

After who knows how long, Ning Youyou finally mustered some strength, struggled out of the tub, wrapped herself in a robe, and called the front desk with a tearful voice:

"Hello,"

"This is room 606. Do you have any bruise ointment?"

...

The next noon.

"Boss Chen, we'll leave Ning Jie here with you. Sorry for the trouble."

"No trouble at all. Don't worry, Youyou is my good friend. I'll take good care of her."

In the hotel lobby, Chen Jianhai assured Xiao Xia with a "you can trust me" look.

Xiao Xia shook his head helplessly. Last night, Ning Youyou had messaged him saying she had accidentally fallen and was in a lot of pain, asking him to take the earliest boat to fetch the eager tourists back from Xiao Majia Island.

Initially, he thought she had sprained her ankle or hurt herself while diving and was very worried.

But when he rushed to the hotel and found out that Ning Youyou had slipped and fallen in the bathtub, he didn't know whether to laugh or feel sorry.

It was a complicated feeling.

As for the other tourists, they were informed yesterday that the price for the second night would be 2999 yuan, and without hesitation, they chose to check out and return to Nanjing with the tour group.

"Ding!"

"Congratulations, host! You have received genuine satisfaction ratings from your customers!"

"Yesterday, 34 guests checked in at the island hotel. With 33 positive reviews, the satisfaction rate is 97%."

"Congratulations, host! You have earned 97 points."

The system's voice sounded in Chen Jianhai's mind, and the smile on his face froze.

A 99 yuan room, and someone's not satisfied?!!

Are they that hard to please!!!

Who could it be!!!

As Chen Jianhai raged internally, he suddenly remembered something and looked up sharply, his piercing gaze seeming to penetrate the concrete, steel, floor, and ceiling, glaring fiercely at a room on the sixth floor.

It must be you… Short Legs!!

You must be the one who didn't give me a good review!

"Achoo…! Who's cursing me?"

In room 606, Ning Youyou, covered in bruises, suddenly sneezed. Without the sneeze, she was fine, but with it, all her bruises hurt, making her yelp in pain.

"Can't they just make a bathtub square?!"

Ning Youyou muttered, clearly dissatisfied.

"A round bathtub, and so deep, even kids would fall in."

"Bad review!"

...

In the first-floor lobby,

Chen Jianhai, feeling frustrated, took a sip of ginger tea. Actually, he couldn't blame anyone.

A 100% satisfaction rate would earn extra rewards from the system.

Back then, he received a reward for renovating the hotel lobby, creating a Grecian temple hall, thanks to a 100% satisfaction rate.

When pricing the island hotel, he aimed to exploit the system, thinking of luring guests with low prices, then impressing them with high-standard accommodation and service, creating a huge psychological contrast and securing positive reviews to exchange for freebies for the island hotel.

But unexpectedly, it all came down to Ning Youyou's short legs…

Sigh,

"There's no such thing as everything going as planned…"

"Plans can't keep up with changes; you still have to rely on yourself!"

Chen Jianhai sighed, put down the ginger tea, and walked out of the lobby.

On the white beach, a dozen male staff were carrying tools, digging something in the sand.

Seeing Chen Jianhai come out,

An employee asked, "Boss, does this wrapping look good?"

"Yes, it looks good. Wrap it up nicely!" Chen Jianhai replied satisfactorily.

Thanks to everyone who voted for me!!

Every vote from you is my biggest support, thank you!!

Thanks to Da Lajiao for voting for me at midnight; I was really touched.

Next time, the flower seller definitely won't beat you, I promise!
