Codename:Phoenix 149 Encounter 1

The sound from her mobile phone's vibration instantly pulled Miss Teri's focus back to the present. She quickly wiped her tears dry and wet her face with cold water from the faucet.

She then wiped her face and hands dry using the towel that hung on the bathroom door before she stepped outside to read the text message that she just received.

'Good evening, Miss Teri. We have already arrived at the hotel and one of your staff had already notified us about your wish to take a quick rest. Please take your time. We are very much willing to wait.'

The message she received was from Rentao that was why she immediately sent a reply right after reading the contents of the text message.

'Thank you, Mr. Rentao. I'll be ready in thirty minutes.'

Soon after her message was sent to the other party, Miss Teri carelessly tossed her phone on the couch. She then moved in front of the closet to check on the remaining clothes she had inside. There were only two sets of clothing that she can choose from. One was a pair of black skinny jeans and white turtleneck top while the other one was a floral 3/4 long sleeve top with ruffle edge dress.

Taking the color of her mask into consideration, she chose to wear the dress. After she pulled the dress out the closet, she carefully placed it on top of the bed. Then, she grabbed her toiletries to have a quick shower before meeting up with her newest client.

"Boss, Miss Teri had already sent us her reply. She said she will be ready in thirty minutes." Rentao informed w.a.n.g Reiji whose eyes were busy roaming around the lobby of the hotel.

As a hotel owner herself, w.a.n.g Reiji can't help but examine the looks of the hotel's interior and lighting. The floor of the lobby was tiled in fine marble and the lobby itself was cla.s.sy and s.p.a.cious. Since it was s.p.a.cious, it was divided into three areas. And though the lobby was already divided into part.i.tions, there was still enough s.p.a.ce for the guests and employees to move around.

At the left wing of the lobby, the hotel's own restaurant and other restaurants were placed. While at the opposite wing was a gallery where guests can admire artworks while they wait to be accommodated. And at the center area of the lobby, there were big armchairs and love seats that seemed comfortable for the guests to sit down to.

The hotel also had good indoor lighting. This was because of the multiple lights and the contemporary chandelier that hung on the ceiling of the lobby, spreading their light across the entire area.

Just as w.a.n.g Reiji's eyes were about to check the front desk and concierge, Rentao called out her attention again.

"Boss?"

"Yes, I heard you. I was just taking a look at this hotel's lobby. Now, I can't wait to check Oriental Europa's own lobby tomorrow."

"The interior and exterior of the hotel were already done. The designers a.s.sured me yesterday that they adhered to every bit and detail that you wanted." Rentao answered promptly as he ushered w.a.n.g Reiji to the restaurant where the dinner meeting will be held.

"That was good news. Anyway, please tell Miss Teri to take her time. It is still early in the evening anyway." w.a.n.g Reiji instructed Rentao soon after they had entered the restaurant.

"Hmm... Boss, who are you tonight?" Rentao reluctantly asked in a barely audible voice.

"Huh?" w.a.n.g Reiji stared at Rentao, dumbfounded.

"What I mean was, should I introduce you as CEO w.a.n.g or the model Jing Yizhi?"

"Actually, I haven't thought about that yet. How about you? Who do you think should I be tonight?" Undecided, w.a.n.g Reiji threw Rentao's question back at him.

Rentao: ...

"Haha! You should have seen the look on your face. I was just teasing you. Anyway, I think it is best that you introduce me as Jing Yizhi. I want to know if her att.i.tude is the same as Lady Tong's."

"As you wish, boss." Rentao Replied as he a.s.sisted w.a.n.g Reiji to take a seat.

Soon after w.a.n.g Reiji had sat comfortably in the padded chair, she then roamed her eyes in the restaurant. When her sight landed on the buffet area, her skin became pale all of a sudden when she recognized the man who stood beside one of the buffet tables.

'I should have taken my dream seriously!' w.a.n.g Reiji screamed inwardly the moment her eyes met with Zhang Chenric's.
