People are in Honkai Impact 3rd, there's a villain simulator.

Seeing Qiao Qiao lounging lazily on the sofa, Song Qian didn't find him rude at all. On the contrary, he felt that the young master of the Bei Chen family should be so domineering and arrogant. His eyes couldn't help but flash with admiration. He walked up to Qiao Qiao and Mei and said respectfully, "Young Master Bei Chen, Miss Lei Dian, rest assured, I will prepare the most luxurious suite and special services for you. I will make sure you are both completely satisfied."

Despite Qiao Qiao's rude attitude, the hotel tycoon not only showed no anger but also acted humbly, like a masochist. This made Qiao Qiao feel a little strange and unsure how to react. On the other hand, Mei, who came from a wealthy family, seemed to be used to such flattery and said with ease, "Then Mr. Beichen and I thank Mr. Matsumae for his kindness."

Upon hearing Mei's words, President Matsumae felt that now was the perfect opportunity for Qiaoqiao to express her feelings to Mei and win their favor. He continued, "Ms. Mei, please don't be so polite. It is our greatest honor that you two are willing to stay at our hotel. Not only will we provide you two VIPs with the best service, but all your expenses in the hotel will be free. You can stay as long as you like."

Upon hearing this, Qiaoqiao and Mei were both stunned, and they exchanged a strange look.

Staying at someone's hotel without paying is practically freeloading, isn't it?

Although Qiaoqiao likes to get things for free and take advantage of others, this is the first time she has ever seen someone actively vying to let her get things for free.

In President Matsumae's view, the income from hotel rooms, catering, and labor is just a small amount of money. However, if he can please the young master of the Hokushin family and gain his favor and support, then his rise to prominence will be just around the corner.

Although Qiaoqiao and Mei were young, they could understand why President Matsumae was taking special care of them. He couldn't possibly exempt them from expenses for no reason; he was simply trying to curry favor with the Beichen family for greater benefits.

Although Qiao Qiao had noticed the extraordinary power of the Bei Chen family at the banquet, she was still surprised that they would be so humble and willing to offer themselves to her.

It's so nice to be rich; you don't even have to pay for a hotel stay—it's completely free.

If the fact that Qiao Qiao is not the young master of the Beichen family is exposed, President Matsumae will probably cry himself to death when he realizes he has been deceived.

President Matsumae was completely unaware that Qiao Qiao was not Kitashiki Sakeyu. For the sake of his own future, he tried even harder to flatter her, saying, "Young Master Kitashiki, Miss Mei, do you have any other arrangements for the hotel? Don't worry, as long as our hotel can do it, we will meet your requirements!"

Mei, as expected of a young lady from a prestigious family, had seen the world. Even though she knew she was making up a huge lie, she exchanged a glance with Qiao Qiao, and said calmly and composedly, "Young Master Bei Chen and I know your good intentions, but we only plan to stay for two nights. A regular double room will be fine with us. We don't need a particularly luxurious VIP suite."

Although Mei has to share a room with JoJo in Changkong City because of the need to pretend to be engaged, she is a shy and introverted young lady from a prestigious family. Although she can share a room with JoJo, she does not intend to do anything unspeakable with him, nor does she intend to swindle President Matsumae's money. Naturally, she does not want to stay in a special VIP suite with JoJo; a regular double room is fine with her.

However, President Matsumae was slightly taken aback when he heard Qiao Qiao and the other person's request.

In his more than forty years in the hotel industry, he had never heard of such a strange request.

In the past, when dignitaries came to their hotel, they would request the most luxurious suites, and their requests were all sorts of demanding and varied.

But today, Young Master Beichen and Miss Mei checked in, and they only wanted the most basic double room.

You two wealthy young masters and heiresses are living in an ordinary double room. What's so special about that?

President Matsumae was completely baffled by Mei's request, but suddenly his eyes lit up as if he understood the deeper meaning in Mei's words. He said with a bright look, "Very well! We will do our best to meet Miss Mei's request! We will prepare the best room for you."

Although President Matsumae verbally agreed, Mei felt his reaction was a bit strange, as if he didn't understand what she meant. She lowered her voice and instructed, "We only need a regular room. We don't need a double bed, champagne, or flower fragrances!"

Upon hearing this, President Matsumae nodded repeatedly, saying, "Of course! I understand! I understand!"

"Well then, if Miss Mei has no other requests, I'll go and arrange a hotel room."

As soon as he finished speaking, President Matsumae turned and left with a smile, seemingly thinking about something and preparing to decorate the room according to Mei's wishes.

Mei watched him leave the VIP room with something on his mind, her eyebrows furrowed slightly, and a sense of unease arose in her heart.

He... really understood what I meant?

Chapter 191 Was it intentional or accidental?

Changkong City, Far East Region.

Qiaoqiao and Mei sat in the back seat of a luxury car as Raiden Kunimitsu skillfully drove the vehicle at high speed along the night highway.

Mei looked at Qiao Qiao, who was gazing out the window beside her, and said, "You've worked so hard, Qiao Qiao. Without you, the guests at the banquet would never believe that I have a fiancé."

Hearing Mei's thanks, Qiao Qiao smiled slightly and leisurely cupped her chin, saying, "It wasn't hard at all. I had a very happy day, especially when I was fighting Freya."

If other women heard Qiao Qiao say these words, they would probably think that Qiao Qiao was a villain who liked to bully girls. But Mei already knew Qiao Qiao's good character, trusted him a lot, and knew that he said these words to stand up for her.

Thinking of how Qiaoqiao risked her life for her and slapped Freya, Mei still felt a warmth in her heart, and a smile involuntarily appeared on her lips: "Thanks to you today, if you hadn't been with me, those people at the banquet would have joined Freya in humiliating my father."

Mei seemed to be recalling her family's decline and the past when she was despised: "Those businessmen and nobles were all so hypocritical. When the family was prosperous, they all flattered me, but when the family declined, they all mocked and kicked me when I was down."

Qiaoqiao calmly comforted her, saying, "Those who approach you because of money and power will one day leave you because of money and power as well."

“But…” Qiaoqiao looked at Mei, a smile appearing on her lips: “It is precisely because the world is like this that we should cherish those sincere, kind, and selfless friends even more.”

Hearing Qiaoqiao's comforting words, Mei's originally cold and lonely face blossomed with a smile again. In Mei's eyes, people like Matsumae who deliberately flatter her for fame and fortune are simply hypocritical and laughable, not worth mentioning. Only people like Qiaoqiao, who know that she is in a lonely situation and are still willing to lend a helping hand, are friends worth cherishing.

After receiving Qiaoqiao's guidance, Mei untangled her feelings about those hypocrites and said seriously, "Although I don't like those greedy and powerful people... since they are deliberately trying to please us for their own benefit, we might as well go with the flow and use them to rescue my father."

Qiao Qiao's thoughts coincided with Mei's. In his opinion, those who stood by and watched Mei suffer were all bullies. Those who had the ability to stop the bullying but did not do so were just as hateful as those who bullied Mei. He had to take this opportunity to teach them a lesson.

Qiaoqiao echoed Mei, "I'm willing to do anything to help Mei. It's time for those indifferent bystanders to pay the price."

Mei was deeply moved upon hearing this. In this world, besides her father Raiden Ryoma and her best friend Kiana, only JoJo was willing to give so unconditionally for her.

What's admirable is that Qiaoqiao is not only sincere in her feelings, but also intelligent and not pedantic. She will stop at nothing to achieve justice.

Back then, Mei's father was framed and imprisoned by bad guys, and her family declined. Now, she doesn't mind fighting evil with evil and letting Cocolia taste the bitterness of injustice.

"Qiaoqiao, you're right." Mei looked at Qiaoqiao with a hint of approval in her eyes and said, "As long as my father's crimes can be cleared, we can rely on any power, even the power of those bad people!"

Jojo and Mei shared the same view on dealing with Cocolia by any means necessary, and they smiled at each other.

Lei Dian Guoguang drove a black sedan and slowly parked it in front of the hotel.

As soon as Qiaoqiao and Mei's car arrived at the hotel entrance, President Matsumae approached with several servants. They seemed to have been waiting for a long time and were eagerly anticipating Qiaoqiao's arrival.

As soon as the car stopped, President Matsumae instructed a page to open the car door for Jojo and help carry the luggage. The service he provided to Mei and Jojo was as attentive as if they were emperors.

Jojo naturally accepted Matsumae's deliberate attempts to please her.

Qiaoqiao isn't stupid; she can enjoy VIP treatment without spending a penny. How could she possibly refuse such a great deal?

Raiden Kunimitsu drove away satisfied after dropping Qiaoqiao and Mei off at the hotel, while President Matsumae respectfully led Qiaoqiao and Mei to the suite door.

As soon as Matsumae opened the door, Qiaoqiao was shocked by the sight inside the hotel room. Everywhere was filled with fresh flowers, fine wines, jewelry, antiques, paintings, and other rare treasures.

These aren't particularly rare items, but a rough estimate puts the contents of this room at least in the millions.

Qiaoqiao looked at the expensive items in the room and asked in surprise, "Mr. Matsumae, where did all these things come from?"

Even if Matsumae intended to please Jojo and Mei, giving so many expensive gifts was going too far.

Upon hearing Qiaoqiao's question, President Matsumae quickly replied, "These are gifts sent in advance by the folks of the Far East region upon hearing that Young Master Beichen was staying at the hotel, as a token of their goodwill."

Upon hearing this, Qiaoqiao suddenly realized that the gifts were from the wealthy and powerful people at the banquet, which explained why there were so many.

However... before Qiaoqiao had even officially checked into the hotel, they had already delivered all the gifts, which showed that the group of wealthy and powerful people were paying close attention to Qiaoqiao and Mei's movements, afraid of missing any opportunity to curry favor.

Qiaoqiao was overjoyed to see the millions of dollars worth of gifts given by the wealthy and powerful. She picked up a katana and eagerly drew it from its sheath. Looking at the snow-white and sharp blade, her eyes lit up and she said, "This katana is of uniform quality, has a bright luster, and is exquisitely crafted. It is a rare and excellent katana!"

Seeing how much Qiao Qiao liked the gift she received, Mei smiled slightly. Meanwhile, President Matsumae secretly regretted not knowing that Young Master Beichen liked knives; he would have definitely given him a fine sword.

Looking at the dazzling array of gifts and then at the names of all the "suckers," Qiao Qiao was overjoyed. He hadn't even received the million-dollar reward promised by Mei yet, but the gifts from these powerful and wealthy people alone were already worth millions.

He did nothing but use the name "Beichen Jiujiu" and made so much money. That was much easier than pretending to be Mei's fiancé.

Qiaoqiao was overjoyed to see the luxurious gifts she had gotten for free, while Mei was already used to such jewelry and rare treasures. She walked across the luxurious carpet, pulled open the curtain in front of the French windows, and immediately the entire city's night view was in full view, with the roads coming and going like the veins of a leaf.

Looking at the beautiful night view from the high-rise building, Mei frowned slightly and asked President Matsumae behind her, "Didn't I say that a regular double room would be fine? Why did you arrange such a luxurious suite for me?"

Upon hearing Mei's question, President Matsumae stepped forward smugly: "People of your status, Young Master Kitajin, how could you condescend to stay in an ordinary room? Only our hotel's most luxurious couple's suite is worthy of your distinguished status!"

President Matsumae spoke with great pride, but Mei immediately exploded: "A...a...couple's suite?!"

"Yes, our suite not only has an outdoor swimming pool, private bathroom, and 24-hour food and fruit service, but also... the room is extremely soundproof."

Mei originally only planned to spend the night peacefully in an ordinary room with Qiaoqiao, but unexpectedly, President Matsumae took it upon himself to arrange a couple's suite for her.

Mei walked cleanly through the living room piled with gifts and pushed open the bedroom door.

In the spacious and bright bedroom, there was a prominent double bed, with rose petals arranged in a "?" shape on the snow-white velvet bedding, and a sweet floral fragrance wafted through the space.

A double bed, champagne, fresh flowers and aromatherapy... everything Mei had specifically told her not to have was provided.

Qiao Qiao followed Mei into the bedroom. Unlike the naive Mei, he was used to this romantic couple's bedroom. He went straight to the bed and found that there seemed to be something in the cabinet.

Qiaoqiao took the things out of the cabinet and looked...

Holy crap... it's actually a bottle of kidney tonic produced in our Far Eastern neighbor...

Qiao Qiao had previously drunk the "Stamina Enhancement Essence" potion freshly squeezed from the Honkai Consciousness, making her stamina far exceed that of an A-rank Valkyrie. Dealing with Raiden Mei would be a piece of cake for her, so why would she need such a thing?

However... this is a token of President Matsumae's goodwill, so it would be impolite to refuse it outright.

With that in mind, Qiaoqiao slowly put the kidney tonic back into the bedside table, just in case.

Mei had specifically requested that nothing like flowers or fine wine be brought up, so she had nothing to mention. President Matsumae, who believed that "the customer is always right," naturally had to make sure everything was arranged perfectly for her.

When Mei saw the room's layout, she gritted her teeth in anger, reached out and lifted the bedding, scattering the "?"-shaped floral wreath that President Matsumae had arranged. In an instant, countless blood-red roses floated in the room.

But then, something even more unacceptable happened to Mei. As the goose feathers were lifted, an extremely sexy white lace camisole was found on the bed.

Upon seeing the lace lingerie under the sheets, Mei blushed crimson and immediately confronted President Matsumae: "Have you seen this room yourself?"

Upon hearing Mei's question, President Matsumae remained completely unfazed and replied, "I've been here once."

President Matsumae's nonchalant attitude only fueled Mei's anger: "How are you feeling?"

Compared to the furious Mei, President Matsumae still wore a calm and professional smile, saying, "I removed most of the men's and women's amenities from the hotel, but I kept some. I think only by keeping some will you know that this is a couple's suite?"

Mei's forehead bulged with anger. She clenched the camisole in her hand, suppressing her rage as she said, "Did you intentionally keep this camisole?"

President Matsumae seemed oblivious to Mei's anger, stating matter-of-factly, "I kept some."

Was it intentional or accidental?

"It was intentional!"

As he spoke, President Matsumae proudly raised his head, thinking that Mei and Jojo, the couple, would be particularly satisfied with his arrangements.

When Mei saw President Matsumae's eyes darken and turn icy cold, a murderous intent rose within her, and she wished she could cut him down right then and there.

Chapter 192 Qiao Qiao: I know a little about chess

During Qiao Qiao's stay at the Ipolo Hotel, wealthy and high-ranking officials from Changkong City came to visit him, presenting him with many valuable gifts, ranging from tea, cigarettes and alcohol, antiques and paintings, gold and gems to luxury cars and watches.

Qiao Qiao had only been in Changkong City for two days, and the gifts he received were worth as much as three million. Even Qiao Qiao himself couldn't help but sigh at how easy it was for rich people to make money. Even if they did nothing, money would be delivered to their door.

Besides receiving many valuable gifts, Qiaoqiao's life at the hotel was extremely luxurious. Her bedroom had a computer and game console, so she could play the latest games at any time. She could have all kinds of food delivered by pressing a call button. She could also have a massage from beautiful women at the spa downstairs. And all of this was free, with President Matsumae paying for everything.

Although Jojo came to Changkong City to impersonate Mei's fiancé and rescue Raiden Ryoma, who was trapped in a cage, he was as relaxed and comfortable in the hotel as if he were at home, as if the upcoming battle against Cocolia and Anti-Entropy did not exist at all.

Unlike Jojo, who is carefree and only cares about eating, drinking and having fun, Mei, during her stay at the hotel, focuses on gathering intelligence and maintaining communication with Raiden Kunimitsu in order to ensure that her plan to steal the ledger is foolproof in order to rescue her father.

Qiaoqiao and Mei spent their second day in Changkong City in completely opposite ways.

Time flies.
