How can I justify myself as a Magnate if I don't indulge myself?

Chapter 106 - 86: The Various Faces of Life in Business KTV_2

"Mr. Gu, do you need anything?"

Manager Ma stared at Gu Heng eagerly, hoping that the next second Gu Heng would grandly gesture and say, "Bring me a Shenlong Set, a Big Three Yuan," or something of that sort...

Ranran and Qiuqiu were also full of anticipation, pressing closer and closer to Gu Heng...

Even Yu Han, who had been maintaining a calm facade, couldn’t help but squeeze her palm...

But the next second, the words that came out of Gu Heng’s mouth made everyone’s smiling faces freeze.

"Get me two bottles of Wangzai Milk. I’ve been singing for a while, and my throat feels uncomfortable; I need some milk to soothe it."

After hearing this, Manager Ma’s heart, originally burning with anticipation, suddenly cooled, but still holding onto a sliver of hope, he kept bending over, waiting for Gu Heng to continue...

But after waiting for two or three seconds, as Gu Heng already leaned back into the sofa, Manager Ma did not hear the answer he hoped for, and his dangling heart finally died...

All night, he had been busy selecting girls backstage and personally arranging for Yu Han, Ranran, and Qiuqiu to come and serve. Wasn’t it all to sweeten up to this big shot in front of him?

And after all that anticipation throughout the night, was he dismissed with just two bottles of Wangzai Milk?

But regardless of everything, in terms of the current spending, Gu Heng already qualified as a big customer. Disappointed as he was, Manager Ma couldn’t show a trace of it on his face, still wearing a respectful expression, he cautiously asked, "Only the Wangzai Milk? Mr. Gu, do you need anything else?"

"Not for now. Just bring the milk first. My throat is almost smoking."

This time, not only Manager Ma’s heart died, but the hearts of the three women Yu Han also died halfway...

Qiuqiu, who had been rubbing up against Gu Heng with her ample bosom, stiffened her smile, and her bosom inadvertently drifted away from Gu Heng’s arm...

A flash of annoyance passed through Ranran’s eyes as well...

The one who appeared most composed was still Yu Han, who seemed to have no reaction on the surface. But in her heart, Gu Heng’s importance had already significantly decreased...

He saw all their expressions clearly.

Whether you call their behavior too materialistic or too opportunistic, it was somewhat understandable.

After all, why were Manager Ma and the women trying so hard to please Gu Heng, to make him happy?

It was all for his money...

When Gu Heng was spending, he was the big boss; now that he wasn’t spending, a change in attitude was to be expected...

"Alright, Mr. Gu, please wait a moment, I’ll bring it right over."

Just as Manager Ma prepared to leave, Gu Heng, having witnessed their reactions and no longer in much of a playful mood, waved at Manager Ma again and said, "Wait a minute."

"Mr. Gu, do you need anything else?"

"Also, get me a bottle of Hennessy Richard, two bottles of Louis XIII, and a few bottles of Ace of Spades."

Upon hearing the additional request from Gu Heng, Manager Ma was stunned for a moment, and then his excitement soared through the roof!

What a casual mention!

Isn’t this big shot’s way of speaking?

Two bottles of Wangzai Milk priced at 10 yuan each, casually added with a bottle of Hennessy Richard priced at 38,800 yuan, two bottles of the similarly priced Louis XIII, and even several vague mentions of the Ace of Spades...

How many bottles?

Although Ace of Spades can’t compare with Hennessy Richard or Louis XIII in terms of prestige and price.

But still, that’s a top-tier champagne costing 6888 yuan per bottle, right? A single bottle of Ace of Spades in an ordinary private room could hype up an entire evening, but at Gu Heng’s place, it didn’t even warrant a measured quantity...

"Would six bottles of Ace of Spades be enough? Our club can bundle six bottles of Ace of Spades into a Shenlong Set, priced the same as a bottle of Hennessy Richard, only costing 38,888 yuan, saving over two thousand compared to buying individually..."

Gu Heng waved his hand: "Just see to it."

"Okay, Mr. Gu, please wait a moment, I’ll arrange for the liquor delivery team right away!"

But before he could take a step, Gu Heng spoke again, "Drop all that fancy stuff; it’s all meaningless. Just hurry up and bring the items over; I told you my throat is almost smoking."

"Sure sure, I’ll arrange for someone to deliver it to you as quickly as possible!"

After confirming there were no other instructions, he quickly walked out of the private room, speeding towards the elevator entrance like a sprinter. While running, he shouted loudly into his pager, "Contact the beverage department immediately!

Organize a Hennessy Richard, two bottles of Rémy Martin Louis XIII, and a set of Golden Edition Ace of Spades Shenlong Set to be delivered to room 6666 right away!! Make it quick!!"

The set of drinks Gu Heng ordered totaled more than 150,000 yuan...

He had completely surpassed his highest performance ever since being in business.

His peak performance was just two bottles of Louis XIII in one night, and that too from two different private rooms...

Now, Gu Heng alone had broken his own sales record, even doubling it, how could he not be excited?

Heaven rewards the diligent...

All his hard work this evening was not in vain...

.....

.....

Not only was Manager Ma excited.

Yu Han, Ranran, Qiuqiu were excited.

It’s just that everyone’s reason for excitement was different...

Ranran and Qiuqiu were similar in thought to Manager Ma, excited about the commission, about making money off Gu Heng...

As for Yu Han...

She had bigger and greedier desires than Ranran and Qiuqiu...

She wanted the commission from the drinks, but what pleased her more was the person Gu Heng himself...

She knew the value of the drinks Gu Heng had just ordered, over 150,000 yuan, to be able to spend so freely and comfortably, Gu Heng’s capabilities needed no further explanation...

When it came to judging people, she had her own methods.

Whether Gu Heng was biting the bullet or genuinely didn’t care about the tens of thousands of yuan, she could tell at a glance.

Besides the three of them, the ones most affected were actually Li Feng, Li Haibin, and Song Hua...

Throughout the day, Gu Heng kept on reshaping their perception of him...

Even though they had accepted that Gu Heng was no longer the same impoverished brother as before, they still couldn’t help feeling a mix of emotions...

"Mr. Gu, it’s my first time seeing Hennessy Richard here, can I try it later?~"

Just like a change-face artist, Qiuqiu clung to Gu Heng again.

Upon hearing this, Gu Heng smiled, "Then when the drinks arrive later, drink a few more glasses."

As he spoke, he subtly pulled his arm out of her bosom...

He had seen their behavior earlier, and while their occupational nature meant if they weren’t a bit realistic, sooner or later, they’d be eaten up and wiped out.

He could understand that, it was just life... Everyone had their own way of handling things.

But understanding is one thing, he didn’t wish to accept it and had the luxury not to.

Qiuqiu also sensed Gu Heng’s distancing and clearly knew why, although she inwardly complained about Gu Heng not directly ordering the drinks and unnecessarily playing the game of restraining then indulging, she could only keep warming her face to Gu Heng’s cold butt, trying to find ways to salvage her image in Gu Heng’s eyes...

Gu Heng leaned back on the sofa, enjoying the cherry tomatoes Yu Han fed him...

A few minutes later, accompanied by a knock on the door, the recently departed Manager Ma returned, still with a face flushed with excitement.

"Mr. Gu, your drinks have been brought up, should we bring them in now?"

With cherry tomatoes in his mouth, Gu Heng mumbled a response, "Bring them in."

Upon Gu Heng’s consent, Manager Ma gestured towards the door, and a group of waitstaff filed in.

Apart from a few carrying drinks, there followed a troupe of voluptuous, scantily clad girls, almost all baring plenty...

Seeing Gu Heng’s puzzled look, Manager Ma quickly explained, "It’s like this, Mr. Gu, our boss said since you did not require the drink-patrolling service, as a gesture of respect for you, we’ve specially arranged our dance group to come up and perform for you, to enhance your fun and enjoyment."

Gu Heng’s right not to like such flamboyant stuff was his privilege.

But if they [Underground Palace] genuinely considered it appropriate, then that was their problem.

Although Qing’an is a third-tier small city, the Underground Palace being the top business KTV there, the management definitely wasn’t brainless...
