A group of people parked their car in front of the hotel. Before getting out, Xiong Sumei turned to Jiang Chen and said, "I can only help you up to this point. You can't stay at the hotel; there aren't many rooms available."
"It's fine, I can manage without staying at the hotel. If I can stay somewhere, that's great," Jiang Chen replied with a smile.
"Alright, let me ask Qian Wenwu if he can spare a room for you," Xiong Sumei said, frowning slightly. In the end, she couldn't bear to leave him without assistance and decided to try for him.
As Qian Wenwu and the others got out of the car, they all gathered around Xiong Sumei's vehicle, clearly aware that she had brought Jiang Chen along.
"Sumei, what are you doing? Why did you bring him along? You need to be careful when you're out; what if he has ulterior motives?" Chen Shuifeng stepped forward, directing his hostility towards Jiang Chen.
"Haha, beauty Xiong, are you interested in this kid? Planning for a beautiful encounter on the Tibet Plateau?" Qian Wenwu teased. They didn't harbor any real dissatisfaction towards Jiang Chen; they just looked down on him a bit. If Jiang Chen had been dressed well and driving a nice car with an impressive background, they would have gladly welcomed him into their circle.
Unfortunately, Jiang Chen's appearance was quite ordinary, which made it understandable that these privileged youths dismissed him.
"Stop joking around. I just felt sorry for him being alone. He clearly looks like he's on a budget trip. Qian Wenwu, is there any extra room at the hotel? Just give him one," Xiong Sumei insisted.
"There aren't enough rooms; how could there be any extra?" Qian Wenwu replied.
"Then Chen Shuifeng and I can share a room; I'll give mine to him," Xiong Sumei suggested.
"Are you crazy? The rooms here are small, and the bed is only one point five meters wide. I’m not willing to squeeze in with someone else," Chen Shuifeng quickly objected.
Xiong Sumei felt helpless and glanced at Jiang Chen.
"Then there's nothing more I can do; you'll have to find somewhere else to stay," she said lightly, not feeling particularly guilty since she had already tried to help Jiang Chen.
"It's okay; I'll find another place to stay. We'll go to the sacred mountain together tomorrow," Jiang Chen said.
"Who wants to go with you? Kid, stop bothering us. Are you trying to take advantage of Sumei?" Chen Shuifeng shouted loudly.
"Haha, kid, you need some self-awareness. You're not in our league; don’t think you can mix with us," Qian Wenwu added mockingly.
"Look at yourself in the mirror; a loser like you thinks he can hang out with us? That's laughable."
"Just get lost; you're really annoying. Beauty Xiong is kind-hearted, but we’re not so generous. Don’t test our limits. Come on, let’s drop our stuff in our rooms and go eat; I'm starving," Qian Wenwu, Li Chengdu, and Sun Rong couldn't help but ridicule him.
Jiang Chen glanced at the three of them with a faint smile before turning away and leaving.
"Sumei, don't be such a soft touch next time. That kid just wants a free ride. There are too many people like him around here—no money or car but still wanting to travel. If it were a beautiful girl, maybe I'd give her a lift; but for a guy? Who cares?" Qian Wenwu said disdainfully.
"Forget it; let's not worry about him. It’s disappointing. Let’s go inside; it’s freezing out here—much colder than Tianfu City," Chen Shuifeng tightened his down jacket and hurried into the hotel.
Although the hotel was shabby, it was better than staying outside, and this hotel was considered the most luxurious in town.
