Apocalypse: The Hotel She Runs Is the Only Paradise

Chapter 74

"Ding! Congratulations, host. Task completed. Rewards: unlock all rooms on the 3rd floor of Building 2; upgrade all rooms on the 1st floor of Building 2 once; unlock unlimited access to all medicines; unlock the electronics store; unlock unlimited access to all products in the electronics store; unlock the dessert shop, unlock unlimited access to all products in the dessert shop; unlock one elevator in Building 2."

After hearing the system announce the task's completion, Gu Wanyin immediately asked Xu Shi to go outside and announce that ten more double rooms were available.

Xu Shi went outside and shouted the news, and immediately saw many people rushing towards them.

Check-in was still being handled in the lobby of Building 1, so everyone was racing towards Building 1.

However, they had all heard that any violent behavior was prohibited in the Peace Hotel.

So after entering the hotel lobby, they didn't dare to make a fuss or fight. Instead, they queued up in an orderly manner.

At this moment, Song Pengpeng had just returned from buying food at the supermarket.

Seeing everyone running into the hotel, she knew there must be vacant rooms available again, so she hurriedly looked for Song Ruoruo.

However, she clearly saw her sister holding hands with a man as they entered the hotel!

"What the hell!" Song Pengpeng couldn't help but curse.

What was going on?

They were sisters!

But now Song Ruoruo was going into the hotel with another man to stay? Abandoning her?

She really wanted to crack open her sister's skull to see what was inside!

Song Pengpeng suppressed her anger and also ran into the hotel.

A queue had already formed in the lobby.

Song Ruoruo was lucky enough to be in the tenth position with the man.

Since they knew these were double rooms, everyone in front of them was also in pairs.

It looked like the last double room would be for her and the man beside her.

"By the way, I haven't asked your name yet," Song Ruoruo turned and asked.

The man's eyes flickered, and he lowered his voice, "Let's not talk about that now. I'll tell you after we check in."

"Alright," Song Ruoruo nodded.

Soon, those in front had finished checking in, and it was Song Ruoruo's turn.

She took out a Crystal Core and handed it to Xu Shi.

Xu Shi accepted it, but frowned when his gaze fell on the man beside her.

The man was deliberately lowering his head and covering his face with his collar.

But Xu Shi felt like he had seen him somewhere before...

"Are you sure you two want to check into a double room?" Xu Shi asked. "Do you want to exchange one level 1 Crystal Core for points first? The points will be split equally between your two room cards."

"Yes," Song Ruoruo nodded.

Just then, she heard an angry shout: "Yes, what? Sister, you really are my good sister!"

Song Ruoruo's body stiffened. She turned to see Song Pengpeng storming over, fuming with anger.

The people behind them who were disappointed about not getting a room suddenly became interested. There was drama to watch!

"Pengpeng," Song Ruoruo stammered, "I'm sorry, I... I had no choice. He's so pitiful."

"Are you kidding me? I'm your real sister, and you're abandoning me for a man you just met?" Song Pengpeng demanded.

"I'm sorry, I... Anyway, you have special abilities and you're smart. It won't hurt you to wait outside for a couple more days. The hotel will unlock new rooms sooner or later," Song Ruoruo said softly.

Song Pengpeng laughed bitterly in her anger: "Fine, great! I shouldn't have cared about you when you were being too kind-hearted before! I shouldn't have risked my life to get your food back when it was stolen! I'll ask you one last time, do you choose him or me?"

Song Ruoruo hesitated for a moment, but seeing the pitiful look in the man's eyes, she still gritted her teeth and said, "I... I choose him. Pengpeng, just wait a few more days, it'll be fine..."

Song Pengpeng's face was expressionless.

She suddenly felt there was no need to be angry anymore.

She would just pretend she didn't have this sister.

From now on, whether Song Ruoruo lived or died, she wouldn't care anymore.

"Fine, you said it. From now on, our sisterhood is over. I will never care about you again! When you're tricked by this man and regret it one day, don't blame me for watching and laughing!"

With that, Song Pengpeng turned and left.

Song Ruoruo's face looked troubled, but she still didn't call Song Pengpeng back. Instead, she said to Xu Shi, "Please help us check in."

Xu Shi gave her a contemptuous look and put the Crystal Core into the machine.

A look of joy appeared on the man's face.

But just then, suddenly, a mechanical voice sounded in the lobby.

"Warning, dangerous person on the blacklist detected. Proceeding with removal."

Everyone was stunned for a moment, and then they saw the man beside Song Ruoruo instantly disappear from the lobby!

Song Ruoruo: "..."

Xu Shi: "Well..."

The Crystal Core disappeared, and two room cards appeared on the machine.

One room card had Song Ruoruo's name on it, while the other was blank.

Xu Shi handed her the room cards and asked, "What kind of dangerous person did you bring in?"

"I, I don't know!" Song Ruoruo said, her face pale. "He said he and the hotel owner used to be a couple, but they had a small argument and he was kicked out, so he wanted to come in and talk to the owner again..."

Xu Shi: "?"

"What kind of bullshit is he spewing!" Xu Shi couldn't help but curse. "Our boss has always been single! He dares to spread rumors, what a scumbag! Damn it, who is he anyway?"

"Gu Mingyu," a calm voice sounded.

Xu Shi turned to see Gu Wanyin standing not far away.

Gu Wanyin had actually witnessed the whole scene.

She had also recognized the man as Gu Mingyu at a glance.

It had to be said, this guy was really lucky, escaping death twice.

Probably because the Zombie King's attention was focused on An Cairou at that time, giving Gu Mingyu a chance to escape.

In fact, since Gu Mingyu had already been blacklisted, he should have been teleported out the moment he entered the hotel.

But... the system had learned to be naughty like her...

It had developed a mischievous streak, letting Gu Mingyu queue up first, and then teleporting him away just when he was about to successfully check in.

Giving him hope first, then plunging him into despair.

This feeling was... delightful!

"So it was him, I knew someone was being so shameless!" Xu Shi complained.

Then, he said to the others in the lobby, "There are no more vacant rooms. Everyone, please disperse. When there are more vacant rooms, I'll come out and tell you."

The others had no choice but to leave disappointedly.

Only Song Ruoruo, pale-faced, still stood there.

"Your room is in Building 2. You can go there now," Xu Shi said.

Seeing that Song Ruoruo was still standing there in a daze, he added sarcastically, "You're really something, able to abandon your own sister for a man you just met."
