Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
Bai Xue stormed into the room and observed that everyone was busy. However, this situation didn’t sit well with her.
She furrowed her brow and shouted, “Where is the person in charge?”
Upon hearing this, the hotel staff turned to look at her. Who was this person? Why did she seem so familiar? What was she doing here? What were the security guards doing?
One of the employees approached and said, “Miss, we’re not open for the next two days.”
“I’m not here to dine,” Bai Xue replied arrogantly. “I’m looking for your manager. Where is he?”
The employee responded, “The manager is in his office. You can go there.”
Bai Xue frowned and stated, “I don’t have the time for that. Get him over here immediately. The decorations are too ugly.”
The busy staff exchanged glances, sensing trouble. They had worked tirelessly all morning and hadn’t even had a chance to eat. Could this woman be asking for a complete redecoration?
Seeing their hesitation, Bai Xue’s expression turned fierce. “What are you all standing around for? Get the person in charge here. My time is precious!”
A quick-thinking employee hurried to find the manager.
Not long after, the manager arrived in the lobby.
He approached and greeted Bai Xue, “Miss Bai, what brings you here? Are you here to inspect? Are you satisfied?”
The staff suddenly realized that she was the main guest of the birthday event, Bai Xue. No wonder she looked familiar. However, it seemed that she was far from satisfied, potentially rendering their entire morning of work futile.
Bai Xue looked at the manager’s servile attitude and felt a sense of satisfaction. She said lightly, “To be honest, I’m quite dissatisfied. The color scheme is too cold. This is my birthday, not a funeral.”
The manager felt embarrassed upon hearing this, but he didn’t yield to Bai Xue’s arrogance because of her identity.
The manager explained, “This plan was approved by Mr. Li. We executed it accordingly. It’s an adult’s birthday party. This color scheme was chosen for a more subdued and elegant ambiance, wouldn’t you agree?”
This reply infuriated Bai Xue, and she clenched her teeth. “Subdued? 1 despise the color blue, and all the balloons you’ve given me are blue. Are you trying to make me upset? These decorations are so ugly. Do you not have any other options?”
The manager smiled and attempted to clarify, “Miss Bai, you may not be aware, but these…”
Bai Xue didn’t let him finish and vented her frustration. “I don’t want to hear excuses. A simple solution: redecorate immediately. Fetch the proposal books for me. I want to select a new design.”
Having voiced her demands, Bai Xue sat in a chair, appearing as though she were the chairwoman of a board of directors.
The manager frowned. Was she not afraid of delaying things if they had to redo everything?
“Why are you frowning?” Bai Xue asked unhappily. “Hurry up and get it!”
The manager was very helpless. He glanced at his assistant and said, “Go to my office and retrieve the proposal books for Miss Bai’s perusal.”
Seeing that the manager was quite lost, Bai Xue’s pride swelled. It seemed that these people were willing to cater to her every whim.
Soon, three proposal books were laid out in front of Bai Xue.
Seeing the multitude of options, Bai Xue’s face darkened. Did they want her to go through all of these? She slammed the table and stood up, furious. “Why so many? You want me to review all of them by tomorrow? Pick out the best ones for me right now.”
The manager tried to persuade her, “Miss Bai, each of these is quite good. Why don’t you take a look yourself?”
Bai Xue glanced at the three books and was overwhelmed by the sheer number of options. She couldn’t afford to spend this much time. She suppressed her annoyance and randomly picked one proposal.
Upon reaching the fifth proposal, Bai Xue pointed at the wedding theme and declared, “This one! It’s warm and joyful. 1 love the color red.”
Decorating it like an engagement party when so many people came would undoubtedly incite Jiang Ling’er’s anger.
The manager raised concerns, “Miss Bai, this is for a wedding, not a birthday party. They have different themes, particularly when it comes to props.”
In essence, he was implying that the costs would vary if the props differed.
“I prefer this arrangement,” Bai Xue declared arrogantly. “Change it immediately.”
The employees were bewildered. It was a birthday party, yet she wanted to have it styled as a wedding banquet. They all saw through her intentions.
Observing the employees’ silence, Bai Xue grew increasingly irritated. She took a deep breath and reprimanded, “Did you not hear me? Do you not understand?”
The manager, with an accommodating smile, said, “Miss Bai, please understand that the costs for this are different from the previously selected themes. Mr. Li had specifically booked a birthday party..”
