Chapter 94: Chapter 94: Meeting the Manager"Don’t panic, everyone, we still have the VIP private room!" Shen Hao glared at Ye Xuan annoyingly, fearing that others might doubt his capability, so he asked the waiter, "How do I get a membership card?" "There are five levels; one star costs 100,000, two stars 1 million, and three stars 5 million! Four and five-star cards are not sold publicly; only our chairman has the authorization to distribute them. Additionally, this fee is just for the card issuance. Consumption costs extra, although discounts apply according to the privileges of the membership." Hearing the waiter’s explanation, Shen Hao pretended to ponder, though his mind was stirring. He remembered that his father had a two-star membership card; unfortunately, he hadn’t brought it with him. Going back to get it now would surely make him the butt of the women’s jokes. With a grit of his teeth, Shen Hao said, "Then let’s make it a one-star membership card..." After finishing, he felt his heart bleeding. This card alone ate up half his monthly living expense, but to show off in front of the ladies, he was willing to push the boat out! Stepping forward and patting Shen Hao on the shoulder, Ye Xuan laughed and said, "Young Master Shen, you really are wealthy. Spending 100,000 just for a card, you truly are a master of showing off—one that’s worth two! I definitely wouldn’t bear to spend that much!" Damn! Does a broke security guard like you even have 100,000? Shen Hao looked at Ye Xuan with contempt, but outwardly he casually waved his hand, "It’s just 100,000; it’s nothing to me! Today is Yiran’s birthday, and we should spend what is needed to have everyone enjoy themselves." Hearing Shen Hao’s words, Lou Yiran showed a princess-like pride, expressing her happiness, "Shen Hao, you are really good to me!" Xu Meng and Li Tingting also looked on enviously; to celebrate his girlfriend’s birthday, he was willing to casually throw out 100,000 just for the membership! What girl wouldn’t like a boyfriend who is such a tycoon? Noticing several girls admiring him, Shen Hao began to feel a bit carried away, and his heartache from the big expenditure lightened somewhat. Just then, as the waiter preparing to lead Shen Hao to get the membership overheard something from the earpiece he was wearing, nodding repeatedly. "Alright, I understand." After responding, the waiter’s face took on a solemn expression, and he looked at the group with newfound respect. "Sir, you don’t need a membership card! You are welcome to enjoy our club’s most luxurious Emperor Hall, folks, please come this way!" After saying that, the waiter bowed deeply at a ninety-degree angle, gesturing for them to follow. What? Emperor Hall! Everyone was shocked, exchanging glances, unsure of what was happening. However, just hearing the name ’Emperor Hall’ sounded incredibly impressive; could it be because of Shen Hao’s influence? As everyone turned their eyes toward him, the women, especially Lou Yiran, gazed with twinkling admiration. Shen Hao scratched his head, equally baffled. Although he wanted to ask questions, seeing the respectful look on the waiter’s face made him swallow his words. "Oh, then lead the way!" Shen Hao puffed out his chest and waved his hand with an authoritative air. Under the guidance of the waiter, the group arrived at the Emperor Hall on the third floor, and everyone looked around curiously at the resplendent KTV room. Not anyone could be invited to the Emperor Hall of the Star Entertainment Club—Shen Hao and Lou Yiran among others, although from decent family backgrounds, clearly didn’t qualify for such a high-end venue. "Ladies and gentlemen, these two bottles of Louis XIII are compliments of our manager, please enjoy," the waiter said respectfully while pointing at the cognac on the display cabinet. "Our manager is currently entertaining a VIP guest but will come to offer you a toast later! Additionally, other beverages and fruit plates will be delivered soon, all free of charge. Please enjoy yourselves to the fullest." After that, the waiter bowed again and turned to leave. "Wow! Two bottles of Louis XIII cognac, each costing twenty to thirty thousand, and they gave us two bottles?" "Didn’t you hear the waiter say that their manager is going to come over and toast us?" "This is the manager of the Star Entertainment Club. He’s actually going to toast us; I feel like I’m dreaming!" "Shen Hao, do you know the manager of the Star Entertainment Club? Otherwise, why would he invite us to the Emperor Hall?" After the waiter left, everyone burst into excitement and crowded around Shen Hao. Shen Hao was utterly confused. What? The manager of the Star Entertainment Club? How could he possibly know him! However, he suddenly remembered something—when he went out to eat with his dad previously, he had seen the manager of the Star Entertainment Club from a distance! At that time, his dad had even gone up to offer the manager a toast, which made him happy all day. Was it because they wanted to show respect to his dad, that they arranged for him to come to the Emperor Hall and even offer them a toast? Shen Hao was somewhat uncertain, but seeing the admiring look in the ladies’ eyes, he got slightly carried away. "Yes, I’ve met the manager here once. I had almost forgotten about it, but surprisingly, he still remembers me," pretending to ponder for a moment, Shen Hao firmly nodded. Upon hearing Shen Hao confirm, the crowd around immediately gasped! Especially Lou Yiran and the other girls; knowing that Shen Hao actually knew the manager of Star Entertainment Club, they were overly excited, their faces flushed! You know, the Star Entertainment Club is backed by the Heavenly Capital Hotel and supported by the Xie Family, one of the four major families in East Sea City. The manager of the Star Entertainment Club, to them, is someone almost unreachable! It’s no exaggeration to say that although they have some background, they aren’t even qualified to carry his shoes! It’s just like comparing a firefly’s glow to the moonlight, not even in the same level, let alone the mere security guard, Ye Xuan. That’s a real big shot! And at this moment, this big shot that they saw, was actually going to come and toast Shen Hao later, which clearly showed how deep their relationship was. This meant a promising future and soaring success was on the horizon! "Master Shen, when you become successful, don’t forget about me!" "Yes, Master Shen, when the manager comes later, please introduce me to him; as long as he can remember me, I’ll be satisfied!" "Ah, Master Shen, it’s a pity you already have Yiran; otherwise, I’d even marry you!" Everyone looked admiringly at Shen Hao, like star-struck fans, filled with fervor, with Li Tingting and Xu Meng’s eyes sparkling with tiny stars. Chang Jing’s eyes shone brightly as she glanced at Shen Hao and then scornfully at the impoverished-looking Ye Xuan. She gracefully walked into the crowd, coyly talking next to Shen Hao. Except for Lu Miaochan, Ye Xuan, and Qin Lan, everyone gathered around Shen Hao, making him the center of attention. Lu Miaochan pouted slightly, whispering discontentedly, "It’s just knowing a manager, and they are getting all proud and excited?" "Ha ha, Miaochan sister, haven’t you heard the saying? The higher you stand, the harder the fall. Let’s just quietly watch from the side." Ye Xuan sat down on the couch, picked up a fruit, and began eating.
