Apocalypse: The Hotel She Runs Is the Only Paradise

Chapter 35: The Scapegoat Sent to the Volcano



Chapter 35

These people could really eat!

After all, they had just experienced the apocalypse and hadn't been staying in the hotel for long.

Moreover, ordinary people couldn't exchange many points, so they usually didn't dare to come to the hot pot restaurant to eat.

Now that someone was treating them, how could they not eat with all their might?

Almost everyone was ordering dishes like crazy, and most of them were ordering meat dishes. They didn't care for vegetables at all!

Not only that, but they kept getting drinks and fruits, all on his tab!

However, so far, Gu Mingyu could still accept it.

But even after they finished eating, Gu Wanyin still hadn't shown up.

"Why hasn't Manager Gu come yet?" he couldn't help but ask.

"Huh? Maybe she had something to do," Zhuang Xiaoxia said, burping. "Tonight we're going to the barbecue restaurant, she'll definitely be there."

Gu Mingyu: "...We're eating again tonight?"

"Yes," Zhuang Xiaoxia said with a grin. "Mr. Gu, you'll be coming tonight too, right?"

"Manager Gu loves lively atmospheres the most," Dong Yue said.

Gu Mingyu forced a smile: "Alright... I'll come tonight."

"Yay! Did everyone hear that? Mr. Gu said he's treating us again tonight!"

Gu Mingyu: When did I say that!

But before he could finish speaking, everyone cheered.

He could only laugh awkwardly.

In the evening, he came to the barbecue restaurant again, looked around, and still didn't see Gu Wanyin.

But everyone was staring at him eagerly, so he had to sit down reluctantly and continue to pay for everyone.

With someone treating, everyone ordered skewers boldly.

And they hardly ordered any vegetable skewers, all meat skewers.

The meat skewers at the barbecue restaurant weren't very big. An adult who had gone through the apocalypse could eat at least fifty or sixty.

Plus, they were ordering all kinds of beer, drinks, and fruits.

Just this one night, Gu Mingyu spent all the points on his card!

Moreover, he even had to use a Crystal Core to recharge his points midway through!

Actually, he didn't mind all of this.

But Gu Wanyin still didn't come to the barbecue restaurant at night!

Gu Mingyu felt he had been deceived.

But seeing everyone's warm smiles towards him, he didn't have the heart to say anything.

"Ah, I feel like I haven't eaten enough!" Zhuang Xiaoxia said, burping.

Gu Mingyu: You're burping and you still haven't eaten enough!

Dou Mei, who lived in room 207, said: "Mr. Gu is so generous! If only he could be this generous every day!"

"Isn't that right?" Bai Shuwen said, "Manager Gu would definitely be very happy, and would look at Mr. Gu differently."

Gu Mingyu was about to go numb.

Why did he feel like these people were deceiving him?

But... why would the other hotel guests treat him like this?

When he left the barbecue restaurant, he saw Gu Wanyin.

His heart leapt with joy, and he immediately walked over: "Manager Gu..."

"Mr. Gu," Gu Wanyin said with a smile, "I've heard all about it. You treated the hotel guests to a lot of food. You're such a nice person."

After a pause, she sighed: "Seeing the hotel guests so happy makes me happy too!"

Gu Mingyu thought he had a real chance now and was about to say something else when he heard Gu Wanyin say: "I have something to do, so I'll be going now."

With that, she turned and left.

Gu Mingyu watched her back, but hope was kindled in his heart.

After all, before, Gu Wanyin had always been indifferent towards him.

Now, she actually smiled at him.

Was she starting to have feelings for him?

Looking at it this way, all these points were worth spending!

He would definitely be able to complete the task Sister Rou gave him!

It's just treating people, right?

As long as he could win over Gu Wanyin, he didn't mind treating as much as needed!

So, over the next few days, the hotel guests started a consumption frenzy.

Ability users like Bai Shuwen were fine, as they weren't frugal in their daily consumption anyway.

But some ordinary people usually lived frugally.

Now that someone was treating them, of course they wanted to eat everything they usually couldn't afford!

Whether it was meat dishes at the hot pot restaurant or the barbecue restaurant, they ordered it all!

All kinds of expensive fruits, they took!

Whatever cold drinks they wanted to drink, they took freely!

As long as someone consumed something, they would go find Gu Mingyu to pay for it!

And Gu Mingyu, in order to make Gu Wanyin look at him favorably, dutifully played the role of the sucker.

After a few days, Gu Mingyu had very few Crystal Cores left.

Although Gu Wanyin now smiled at him whenever she saw him and even praised him, he still felt something was off.

Had he really become a sucker?

But why would the hotel guests treat him like this?

Was it Gu Wanyin's instructions?

Had Gu Wanyin discovered his identity and knew his purpose?

How was that possible!

When eating with those guests, he had specifically mentioned that he had a bad relationship with his brother, which was why he left on his own.

Even if Gu Wanyin had discovered his identity, she shouldn't suspect him!

But now he couldn't think about that too much.

Because he had no Crystal Cores left, and not many points left on his card.

If he didn't go out to get something to exchange for points, he wouldn't be able to stay in this hotel anymore.

So, one morning, Gu Mingyu had to leave the hotel to find some zombies to kill.

However, just after he left the hotel, he suddenly felt a gust of wild wind.

He was clearly a high-level Wind System Ability User, but at this moment he had no power to resist this gale.

He could only instinctively close his eyes and shield himself with his arms.

After a while, the gale dissipated.

Gu Mingyu lowered his arms.

But as soon as he opened his eyes, his brain went "buzz," and he was completely dumbfounded!

Where was he?

The mouth of a volcano!

...

In the hotel, the system gleefully said to Gu Wanyin: "Host, thanks to you, I've earned so many points these past few days! It looks like I'll definitely be number one this month!"

"As it should be," Gu Wanyin said. "You've made my life so comfortable, I should make you happy too."

"Also, congratulations host, the mission has been completed. You've gained the following rewards: all rooms on the fourth floor unlocked; rooms 306-3010 upgraded once; clothing store unlocked with unlimited clothing; snail noodle restaurant unlocked with unlimited snail noodles; five unlimited dishes unlocked; five types of unlimited drinks unlocked."

"You mean the 'stay true to your heart' mission has been completed?" Gu Wanyin asked.

"Yes."

"So 'staying true to your heart' meant not being seduced by Gu Mingyu!" Gu Wanyin said, not knowing whether to laugh or cry. "That mission was too simple, haha. No matter who it is, if they want to seduce me, they can try in their next life."

"Host, you're like this, and I feel relieved. I was right to choose to bind with you."

"Oh, so you can choose on your own?"

"Yes, at that time, many of us systems gathered together to choose hosts. I spotted you right away. Actually, several other systems had their eye on you too, but I was quick and snatched you up."

"Really?" Gu Wanyin was a bit happy. "Am I that popular among systems?"

"Of course! If I hadn't been quick, you would have been bound by the horror world system."

Gu Wanyin: "...Fortunately, you were quick! By the way, did I become one of the hosts you could choose because I transmigrated? And why did I transmigrate? Also, what happened to the original owner of this body?"
