The Wife of the Wealthy Family Is Fierce and Cute Chapter 116 - I Heard That the Empire’s Team Is Very Weak

Chapter 116: I Heard That the Empire’s Team Is Very Weak

At a US international airport.
At eight o’clock in the evening.
Chu Luo and the others alighted from the plane with the crowd. As soon as they exited the plane, they were greeted by a lady in a professional skirt. This lady was actually speaking in their empire’s language.
“Hello, are you the [Phoenix Skies Legend] team?”
Tang Zhiyun looked at her warily. “You are?”
The lady gave them a friendly smile and showed them her work pass. “I’m Yu Xiang from the ‘Battle of Lightyears’ gaming team.”
The group looked at her work pass. After confirming it, Wang Haitao couldn’t help but ask, “How did you know it was us?”
Yu Xiang smiled and said, “I’m following the orders from the higher-ups. They told me to look out for five young men and one young woman coming down from this flight. Furthermore, the woman is especially beautiful. That’s how I knew it was you guys.”
Everyone subconsciously looked at Chu Luo.
Chu Luo frowned slightly at Yu Xiang.
At this moment, Yu Xiang took out a phone from her bag and handed it to her. “The person on it said that if Miss Chu doesn’t believe me, you can call using this phone to confirm.”
Chu Luo took the phone and glanced at the contact list. There was only one phone number on that list.
The five boys stuck their heads out at the same time.
“There’s only one number?”
Wang Mingtao muttered, “Whose number is this? Why is it so mysterious?”
After seeing the number, Chu Luo didn’t call and handed the phone back to Yu Xiang.
Yu Xiang threw up her hands. “I was told that Miss Chu will have use for this phone here. This phone was specially prepared for you.”
“Hmph!”
Chu Luo snorted. Don’t think she forgot that the number on this was Li Yan’s. That bad guy still had the gall to ask her to call him? Dream on.
However, she couldn’t be bothered to switch her phone to the US mode. Since there was a ready-made phone, it would be a waste not to use it. At most, she would just pay for it.
At the thought of this, she put away her phone.
Seeing that Chu Luo had no intention of calling, Yu Xiang didn’t say anything. Instead, she said, “The accommodations for you have been arranged. Please follow me.”
The group followed Yu Xiang out of the airport.
Along the way, Chu Luo’s looks became the focus of everyone’s attention. Some people even took out their phones to secretly take photos of her.
When the five boys saw this situation, they surrounded Chu Luo and she walked in the middle. No matter how those people tried to find an angle, they were blocked by one of the five.
The car that came to pick them up was parked outside the airport gate. It was a very imposing seven-seater car.
After the group got into the car, the car drove out.
Yu Xiang talked to them in the car.
“The competition will be held in the economic zone, so the hotel the company has prepared for the participants is in the nearest city. It will take an hour to get there from the airport.
“I brought some snacks with me when I came. If you’re hungry, you can fill your stomachs first.”
After saying that, she handed Chu Luo a beautifully packaged pastry box.
Chu Luo wasn’t used to airplane food and was indeed hungry at this time. She took the pastry box and said to her, “Thank you.”
“You’re welcome. It’s my honor to serve you.”
The architectural styles of the US and of the Empire were very different. Other than the structures in the commercial center, the houses here weren’t usually very tall.
The car drove all the way. Not many residents had their lights on at past eight in the evening.
Wang Mingtao, who was originally quite excited, looked out of the car window for a while. Then, he retracted his gaze and complained, “I always thought that the US was similar to our empire. That at night, the nightlife will definitely be very exciting. I didn’t expect this place to look so quiet.”
Yu Xiang, who was sitting in the front passenger seat, smiled and said, “This is the suburbs. The people in the suburbs have to rush to work in the morning bus every day, so they usually sleep early. It will be lively when we enter the city.”
As Yu Xiang had said, once the car entered the city, the surroundings became lively.
The endless stream of cars, shopping complexes, and pedestrians with all kinds of skin colors on the sidewalk made the young lads unable to take their eyes off of them.
Chu Luo had seen many videos introducing this place before, so she wasn’t as excited as them.
The car drove straight to a huge fountain in front of a door and stopped outside a seven-star hotel that resembled a palace.
The doorman came to open the door. Yu Xiang got off the car first and waited for the six of them to get off before saying, “You guys will be staying in this hotel.”
The boys looked at the hotel in front of them and cheered. “Wow! The ‘Battle of Lightyears’ competition organizers are too rich. They actually prepared such a luxurious hotel for us participants.”
“This hotel must be a seven-star one!”
Tang Zhiyun asked at this moment, “Are the other contestants staying in this hotel too?”
Chu Luo also looked at Yu Xiang.
Yu Xiang smiled and shook her head. “The other participants’ residences are in another hotel. As your group arrived a little late, all the empty rooms in that hotel are already full, so I could only arrange for you guys to stay in this hotel.”
After saying that, she said to the six of them, “Let’s go. I’ll bring you in to settle the check-in procedures. You guys have a good rest today. The preliminary round of the World Championship will be held on the fifth. You can move freely in the next two days.”
“Will everyone be gathered in the same place during the competition?” Chu Luo was more concerned about this.
“There’s no need. You can directly apply to participate in the preliminaries and semifinals at the hotel where you stay. When the time comes, someone will come over to install the game equipment and staff will come over to supervise.
“Only after entering the finals will players go to the ‘Battle of Lightyears’ gaming company for the competition.”
They were very satisfied with the humane arrangement of the ‘Battle of Lightyears’ gaming group.
Yu Xiang added, “Next, I’ll send you guys the competition schedule via email, as well as the schedule for the Annual Gala. When the time comes, you can arrange your itinerary according to the time on it.”
“Okay.”
Everyone walked into the lobby on the first floor of the hotel. The boys were shocked again by the splendor of the lobby.
There were more people entering and exiting the hotel at this time. The people who could stay here obviously weren’t ordinary people.
When they saw the few youngsters walk in, their eyes revealed a look of surprise.
“Who are these youngsters? I think those men are dressed only averagely. To think they could stay in this hotel!”
“The girl in the middle is so beautiful!”
“Are they also here for the ‘Battle of Lightyears’ competition?”
“Doesn’t look like it. Which of the other participating teams didn’t have an entourage following them around? They don’t even have a bodyguard.”
“These people look like they’re from the Empire. I remember that three years ago, a team from the Empire entered the World Championship but was eliminated in the preliminary round.”
“Pfft. The people from the Empire look so weak. It’s already good enough that they can enter the preliminary round of the World Championship.”
“Mr. Hans, which team do you plan to invest in this year? You have good taste. The team that you invested in three years ago has indeed entered the finals. You must have made a lot of money these past three years.”
“Haha, that’s for sure. However, there are a few teams that are very powerful this year. I can’t make up my mind yet, so I’ll have to observe them during the preliminary round.”
…
The people who were discussing didn’t lower their voices. Wang Mingtao and Xie Minghai were about to flare up.
Tang Zhiyun stopped them from arguing. “We are new to the US and we are not familiar with this place. Don’t cause trouble.”
Chu Luo asked Yu Xiang, “Who are those people?”
Yu Xiang glanced at the handful of people who were already walking towards the elevator and replied, “They are the CEOs of game equipment companies.”
She then deliberately mentioned which companies these people came from before continuing, “During the ‘Battle of Lightyears’ World Championship, many companies come over to rope in teams that they think might enter the finals. So that it will be easier to get them to endorse their companies when they win.”
“Ha!” Chu Luo sneered. She tilted her head and said to Tang Zhiyun and the others, “Remember, we will make these companies regret what they said today.”
They nodded heavily.
Yu Xiang was a little surprised by Chu Luo’s domineering aura. However, since she was someone requested by the higher-ups to be taken special care of, she definitely wasn’t ordinary. Thus, she wanted to impress Chu Luo. When she was settling the check-in procedures, she said to the front desk, “Prepare two presidential suites for us.”
When Tang Zhiyun and the rest heard this, they looked at Yu Xiang in surprise.
After the check-in was done, everyone took the elevator to the floor where the presidential suites were located.
The spacious and carpeted corridor, the murals on the wall, and the antique vases placed at a distance all clearly showed the status of those living on this floor.
On this floor, even Yu Xiang subconsciously slowed down her pace until she reached the door that a room card she held opened.
Yu Xiang passed one of the room cards to Chu Luo. “Miss Chu, this suite is where you’ll be staying.”
Then, she handed the other one to Tang Zhiyun and pointed to the front. “The suite next door is yours. You may distribute the rooms among yourselves.”
She then said, “The company will send over a professional housekeeper to serve you. If you need anything, you can contact me directly. My number is xxxxx.”
After Yu Xiang finished giving her instructions, Tang Zhiyun and the others went to their suite.
Chu Luo also swiped her card and entered. There were only two words to describe the interior—opulent, big.
Yu Xiang followed in and asked, “Miss Chu, if there’s anything else you need, you can tell me now. Also… tomorrow, the staff will come to install the game equipment for you. I wonder where you’ve decided to install it.”
Chu Luo scanned the entire hall. It was at least two hundred square meters. She pointed at the floor-to-ceiling windows in the hall. “We’ll install it there.”
