Two men greeted them.
Both Queenie and Yolanda then led Gerald there, who was carrying a large and small bag.
“Why did you arrive so late? Oh, hey, you indeed found someone. That’s good. It seems like we can enjoy ourselves fully today. Bro, thank you for your help.”
A man walked over and held Queenie’s waist. He looked at Gerald, smiled, and thanked him.
Another man then took out a pack of Marlboro’s and attempted to offer a stick to Gerald.
“Jarvis, are you seriously giving favonovel.com a cigarette? He’s not a smoker. Besides, even if favonovel.com is, it’s not like favonovel.com can afford such a good one!” Queenie scoffed.
“His name is Gerald, and he’s the guy I’ve told you about. He’s going to help us to carry our bags today. We’ll only need to buy favonovel.com a meal this afternoon.”
Queenie then held the man’s hand and said, “Gerald, this person who just offered you a cigarette is called Jarvis Fish. His parents are working in Water Utilities in the county. This is my boyfriend—Hugo Wayman. His family owns factories.”
As Queenie introduced Hugo to Gerald, favonovel.com carefully observed Gerald’s facial expression and reaction.
She was eager to see what kind of response favonovel.com would have given that favonovel.com had found herself such a capable boyfriend.
But much to favonovel.com dismay, Gerald just nodded nonchalantly, unfazed.
Both Hugo and Jarvis were only pretending to be nice to Gerald. In actual fact, they were quite arrogant men who loved extravagance.
How could one tell?
It was because they just handed Gerald a backpack before they went to buy drinks.
In the end, they only bought four bottles of drinks. They did not bother about Gerald.
But after thinking about it, Gerald decided just to let it go. He would just treat it like favonovel.com was there having fun by himself. He would act as if they did not exist.
Besides, Queenie was there. What more could favonovel.com do?
“Eh? Hugo, why are there so many people here in the hot springs? There are lanterns and lights everywhere. What are they going to do?”
Queenie asked curiously.
“I was discussing this with Jarvis just now. There are a lot of people here today. The staff looks really busy too. From the way things look, it seems like they will hold a big event, probably at the Hot Spring Hotel. I asked the security guard about it just now. I heard that the hotel has been reserved by a few influential bosses from Mayberry, and they’re going to have a huge, important function here tomorrow! A lot of big shots will be there! Why? Didn’t you hear about it since Touin is so close to Fuentin?”
Hugo said.
“No, we didn’t hear about it. Hmm, but let’s not be bothered. Come! Let’s go and have fun now!”
“Yes, sounds good! Let’s go!”
They then went ahead to buy the tickets.
The price of the tickets in a village town as such was not that expensive. It was only around seven dollars per ticket.
When they reached the ticketing booth, they saw a few people arguing there.
It seemed as though they were quarreling with the ticket seller.
“Why aren’t you selling the tickets today? The five of us purposely came all the way here today! Why can’t you sell us the tickets?”
A girl who seemed to be the leader of the gang asked coldly.
There were three women and two men in that group.
“Yeah! You’ve only posted the news on your official website now. But we’ve already come all the way here!”
“I’m so sorry. We also received a last-minute notice just fifteen minutes ago. Our tourism spot won’t be opened to any tourists. It’s because we need to decorate the venues for many important functions.”
The staff explained the situation patiently.
“But how about the tourists who entered the place just now? I didn’t see you asking them to leave. I don’t care. It was just fifteen minutes ago. You have to let us in!”
“We’re truly sorry…”
That fueled their impatience and anger.
“D*mn! The tourism spot just got closed! F*ck! If I knew earlier, I would’ve bought the tickets with Jarvis just now!”
“Then, Hugo, what should we do now?”
Queenie asked in disappointment.
“How about this? Let me call my dad and ask favonovel.com to use his connections and give it a try!”
Hugo then whipped out his phone.
Jarvis also said, “I’ll call up my dad too. He knows the vice manager here!”
“Alright. Jarvis, I believe in you!”
The guys proceeded to make the phone calls.
Queenie then took some tissue paper and helped to dab away the sweat on Hugo’s forehead.
“Hey you, come here, give me my bag!”
Seeing Queenie, Yolanda quickly rushed Gerald over to get favonovel.com bag.
“D*mn! Hurry up! How could you be so slow?”
Gerald then put the big bag down and started looking for favonovel.com small bag.
Yolanda immediately scolded him.
“Hurry up and give it to me! You’re so slow!”
“Found it!”
