Ultimate Village Doctor

Chapter Two Hundred and Fifty-Nine

After arranging a room for Wang Chao, as night fell, Long Xiaoshan and Chun Tao decided not to leave and checked into a presidential suite.

Not long after they entered the room, Chun Tao's cellphone began to ring.

Chun Tao answered the call and after a while, her expression changed slightly as she said, "Okay, I'll come down immediately."

"What's wrong?" Long Xiaoshan didn't listen carefully.

"In the hotel, a group of female guests have discovered hidden cameras in their room, and now they are causing a commotion downstairs. The guests are from Hong Kong Island, and the hotel is unable to handle the situation now. Apparently, reporters have been notified."

Long Xiaoshan's expression changed slightly as well, "What? Why would there be cameras in the hotel? What is going on here? Even a four-star hotel is facing this sort of issue."

"I'm not sure. I need to go down and check it out."n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om

"Hmm, I'll go with you."

Long Xiaoshan couldn't stay put any longer; he got up from the bed. Now that the hotel was registered under Chun Tao's name and she was the chairman, the scandal could be a big or minor issue. It would be easy to manage ordinary guests, but if the incident involved guests from Hong Kong Island and sparked media attention, it would be troublesome.

The hotel's reputation would be ruined. Who would dare to stay in a hotel that planted hidden cameras?

Especially since most people staying at a four-star hotel have some economic strength.

The two got dressed and took the elevator down.

They arrived at the guestroom on the sixth floor where the incident took place.

In the corridor of the sixth floor, dozens of people were standing, including hotel staff and guests. Long Xiaoshan and Chun Tao walked out of the elevator only to hear waves of noisy complaints.

Hotel executives, including General Manager Cao Fang, were talking with a group of female guests, which even attracted many other guests on the sixth floor to watch.

They kept apologizing profusely.

However, those guests crowded together, preventing Cao Fang and the others from entering.

The incident happened in room 622.

Long Xiaoshan's gaze passed through the crowd and landed on a group of fashionably dressed female guests at the doorway. Nearly all of them were above average in looks, and with their fine makeup, they could even reach the beauty standard of an eight out of ten.

Standing at the forefront was a woman who looked particularly stunning. At the height of 175cm, with long chestnut hair, and profound facial features that seemed carved with a knife and chisel, she was clearly a mixed-blood beauty with an aloof temperament like that of a queen, undoubtedly close to a perfect ten in beauty.

At that moment, the mixed-blood beauty was speaking in a cold and arrogant tone, "Before the police and reporters arrive, no one is allowed to tamper with the hidden camera in the bathroom."

Her speech was unmistakably tinged with a Hong Kong Island accent.

"Right, don't let them in. If they take it away, the evidence will be gone."

"I've only read about such things in small hotels in the newspapers before. I never imagined that even a four-star hotel would install hidden cameras. Is there no place that respects privacy anymore?"

"Everyone should go back to their rooms and check. Maybe we've all been bugged as well."

"It must be exposed."

Many of the spectators joined in the clamor upon hearing the words of the mixed-blood beauty, forming a collective outrage.

Long Xiaoshan and Chun Tao walked over, and someone from the hotel staff shouted, "The chairman has arrived!"

The crowd parted slightly, allowing the two to come through.

"Chairman Xu, Mr. Long," Cao Fang greeted Chun Tao and Long Xiaoshan as she approached them.

Chun Tao looked at Long Xiaoshan, her expression slightly tense.

Long Xiaoshan gave her an encouraging look and said, "Go ahead, Taozi, you handle this."

Handling such emergent situations was an important ability for those in leadership positions.

Chun Tao took a deep breath and walked towards the mixed-blood beauty, with Cao Fang whispering the course of negotiations to her as they walked.

Standing in front of the mixed-blood beauty, Cao Fang said, "Miss Li, our hotel's Chairman Xu has arrived."

The mixed-blood beauty looked at Xu Chuntao with some surprise, not expecting that the chairman controlling a four-star hotel would be such a young and beautiful woman. She knew that on the mainland, female chairpersons, especially so young, were few and far between.

"Hello, I am the chairman of this hotel, Xu Chuntao. May I ask how our honored guest would like to be addressed?" Xu Chuntao extended her hand.

The mixed-blood beauty reached out her hand and said indifferently, "Li Jialin."

"Miss Li, I have a rough understanding of what happened, and I am convinced that this was certainly not an official act by our hotel. Please allow us to apologize, and we will provide compensation and ensure that this will not happen again," Chuntao said, after organizing her words.

"Apologies? Compensation?"

The mixed-blood beauty sneered arrogantly and said coldly, "Do you think our privacy being exposed can be settled with apologies and some compensation? Do you realize how serious the consequences would have been if the footage had spread, had I not discovered it early? I refuse any private resolution to this matter. On our Hong Kong Island, any violation of the law must face severe legal punishment, so I have already notified the police and reporters. Once they arrive, you can then discuss compensation with my lawyer."

Chun Tao's eyes showed a trace of anxiety.

If they waited for the police and reporters to come and the story broke, it would cause great damage to the hotel.

The reputation of the Sihai Grand Hotel might be utterly ruined.

Having just taken over the hotel, if its reputation were to be destroyed, it would not only be a massive blow for her but also make her feel that she had let Xiaoshan down.

"Miss Li, I hope we can sit down and talk about this matter. Please trust the sincerity of our hotel, and I think you understand how important credibility is to a hotel," Chun Tao said earnestly. Your next read is at empire

"You too know the importance of credibility? Then how could you let someone install cameras in the guests' bathrooms?" Li Jialin said mockingly.

"That was absolutely not an official act by our hotel, and further investigation is needed. We will definitely provide Miss Li with a satisfactory response."

"Save your clichéd talk for someone else. I don't believe in the credibility of your hotel, Chairman Xu, you don't need to waste your time with me."

Li Jialin was unmoved, causing Chun Tao to feel so upset that her eyes began to well with tears.
