Translator: Endlessantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
Bai Lin did not really like to eat at high-end hotels. She found the overly exquisite dishes and complicated dining etiquette troublesome.
She preferred to stroll around the streets in the middle of the night when no one was around. She would buy food from roadside stalls and all kinds of small carts while she chatted with the stall owners.
However, she would occasionally go to such high-end placessometimes for tasks or other communication needs, sometimes to meet important people.
This time, it was because she had brought Granny to City A. She would be home around six in the evening. Although Bai Lin knew how to cook, most of her skills were based on the ingredients that could be obtained in the wild and the cooking environment.
She did not really know how to use a home kitchen.
It was said that a hotel in City A had hired a very famous pastry chef who was best at making old-fas.h.i.+oned flaky pastry that was popular in the Jiangnan area in the last century.
His craftsmans.h.i.+p was top-notch.
However, this chefs pastries were limited in quant.i.ty and variety every day, so Bai Lin paid attention to the news of this hotel every day. Today, it was finally Grannys favoritered bean and date pastry.
Do we really have to do this? Based on the total population of our country, I wouldnt be so easily recognized on the streets Bai Lin was a little hesitant. Zhou Guang had told her that if she were to go out in case of an emergency, she had to be careful not to be recognized by her fans.
In the end, Bai Lin still put on a big mask and a cap. Otherwise, once she was recognized, she might not be able to make it in time to line up!
The thought of being able to stay with Granny again made her mood extremely light. She rushed to the hotel early, but she did not expect to still have to wait in line for a number.
The minimum expense here was 588 Yuan, and she could just buy a red bean and date pastry and a few side dishes. This way, Granny would be able to eat delicious food once she got home.
Fortunately, there were not many people waiting for the food. After she said that she was going to have them to-go, she only needed to wait for four people.
Bai Lin sat at the waiting area of the hotel lobby and took out her phone to play.
From a distance, a waiter secretly took a picture of her. Soon, Li Xuan received news that Bai Lin was waiting for a meal at a hotel under his name.
He was so happy that he quickly asked the driver to drive him there. He had to discuss with Bai Lin about inviting the Hong Kuen master.
When Bai Lin was tired of playing on her phone, she opened up Weibo to see what interesting things her fans were saying. Recently, some fans had started to share small things in their life with her in private messages, and she loved to read them.
Just as she replied to a private message, she suddenly heard the sound of an argument coming from the hotel entrance.
We paid! Why cant we go in? A mother and daughter were standing at the door, as if they were stopped by someone.
Whod believe that? Do you know how much it costs to stay here for a night? A farmer like you cant even make that much money by planting vegetables for three months! The man who stopped the mother and daughter was dressed in a suit and leather shoes, and his words were very impolite.
Bai Lin stood up and took a look. The mother was wearing old but clean clothes and a bright red headscarf. Her shoes were very new, she must have just bought them.
The little girl next to her was dressed in new clothes, but her face was red, just like her mother. It seemed to be the result of long-term exposure to the sun.
We really did pay. We just came out this morning The farmer woman had a strong accent and was not good with words. She stuttered for a while, not knowing how to prove that she really stayed here. She was forced to speechlessness and could only hold her daughters hand tightly.
Uncle, we registered there last night. The little girl pointed in the direction of the front desk. You can go and take a look.
The little girls accent sounded a lot lighter, but it was still not Standard Mandarin.
Unexpectedly, the man rolled his eyes and said, You still want me to investigate it? If youre really staying here, you should have a room card, right? Register? Who knows if youre using someone elses name?!
The r-room card Its with her father. Her father asked us to come back first It seemed that the woman became even more shy because her man was not by her side.
Pft! The man in the suit spat at the mother and daughter. Continue bluffing. Im the supervisor here. I have the final say! Hurry up and get lost, dont dirty our hotel!
The little girl reacted quickly and immediately blocked it for her mother. The dirty phlegm landed on her newly bought white chiffon dress, and it was such an ugly eyesore..
