Scam

Zhou Chao lay on the bed, gazing at the outside view. It was a moment of pure contentment.

"Growl!"

"Hey, you lazy one!" Zhou Chao patted his own stomach in exasperation.

Then, he grabbed his keys and room card, left the room, leaving his luggage safely stored in the car.

He decided to find a nearby hotpot restaurant with a good online reputation. It was one of those unpretentious places located under residential buildings. The interior lacked extravagant decor, but the business was booming.

When Zhou Chao arrived, a vacant table had just become available, and there was no waiting in line. He sat down without hesitation.

Here, patrons individually choose their dishes and hand them over to the waiters. In terms of service, it's certainly not on par with what one would expect in a high-end hotel. Nevertheless, Zhou Chao didn't feel out of place.
