Chapter 20

After breakfast, everybody got ready to leave for the attractions of the day.

Feng Cheng suddenly asked, “The attractions here are all at places where transport isn’t convenient. I’ve checked this last night. There aren’t any direct buses or metros that will get us there, and it takes 60 pounds to charter a car.’

“Then wouldn’t we be left with only ten pounds?” Ma Yunyun asked with furrowed brows and a meaningful look towards Gu Ran.

Gu Ran couldn’t even be bothered to spare even the slightest glance towards Feng Cheng. She put on her hat to shield herself from the sun, and gestured at something from the hotel’s entrance. In a flash, a seven-seater tour bus rolled into view.

“All aboard!”

Yan Hao and company looked at each other with hesitation. They did not know if they should get onto the bus. They really did not have much money to spare.

Mo Yancheng, however, had no qualms about getting onto the bus, and boarded with no hesitation.

Upon seeing this, Yan Hao hurried to board alongside him, which prompted Liao Ping and Ma Yunyun to follow suit, leaving Feng Cheng to begrudgingly board as well.

As the car left the hotel, Yan Hao couldn’t keep the question within him, and asked, “Gu Ran, this car…”

“Is free.” Gu Ran was still rather civil towards Yan Hao, and supplied him with an answer.

“How could this be!” Ma Yunyun was dubious.

Sure, the hotel came with complementary breakfast, but to have complementary transport services as well?

Mo Yancheng, who was seated at the back, replied, “This hotel’s main patronage comes from foreign tourists. This car clearly has their logo on it, meaning that as long as we use it to bring us to three locations, the cost of the ride will be free.”

And just as coincidentally, the locations set up by the production crew was well within the number limit.

Gu Ran, who was seated in the passenger seat, looked into the rearview mirror with a slight smile. “Not only that, but this is the hotel’s tenth anniversary. If we use their transport to visit these attractions, we get a free pass into these attractions.”

“Really!’

Ma Yunyun and company could not believe that such good luck could ever befall them like this. This meant that as long as they had a little cash for food today, everything else could be free of charge.

Gu Ran threw the hotel’s anniversary brochure over to the backseat. “See for yourself, if you don’t believe me.”

The brochure was written in French, so Ma Yunyun was naturally unable to read it. Neither Yan Hao nor Liao Ping were clear about what was written on it either. She chanced a glance at Feng Cheng, but who knew that his French was spotty at best and he relied mostly on translators to understand the language?

In the end, it was Mo Yan Cheng who soke the final words. “I’ve already consulted the reception yesterday. That’s indeed the case.”

Ma Yunyun let out a sigh of relief at his words.

“Looks like even if this hotel had a rather exorbitant price, it still had its uses,” Feng Cheng piped up, trying to give himself some credit when he saw that everyone’s focus was on Gu Ran.

Gu Ran’s cold sneer rang loud and clear through the silent car.

Ma Yunyun and co did not deign to reply to him either.

Feng Cheng had nary a care for their expenditure and only knew how to spend. If it wasn’t for Gu Ran’s meticulousness and strategically used the deals that the hotel offered, none of them would know what to do today at all!

“So when you were scribbling on that paper yesterday, this was what you were planning!” Ma Yunyun’s good impression of Gu Ran only increased at the revelation.

Gu Ran only gave her a look, and replied neutrally, “We’re here. Let’s alight, everyone!”

The group finished touring the three attractions on their agenda by the time noon rolled around, and Yan Hao and company were starving.

Whatever energy they had gotten from the sandwich and milk that morning was long gone after traipsing around to cover all three attractions which had consumed a lot of their reserves..

“Let’s find a convenience store around here and grab a bite!”

After the fiasco last night, everyone had learnt their lesson and were too afraid to eat anywhere that looked too luxurious.

But Gu Ran had not a care as she asked the car to take them to the neighborhood’s most expensive buffet restaurant.

“Let’s have lunch here. We shall alight here.’
