I'm Richer than My Boss (A Minsul fanfiction)

Where Will I Go?

Sulli dragged her pink luggage as she entered the hotel, her direction towards the reception.

"Good evening, ma'am. How may I help you?" The receptionist smiled, welcoming Sulli.

"I'd like to book a suite room for tonight, please," she replied to the receptionist's inquiry.

While waiting for her request to be processed, Sulli roamed her eyes to the hotel's interior. Bright chandeliers were hanging on the high ceilings. Bellboys were rushing in and out, carrying luggages.

Her sightseeing was cut off when the receptionist called her attention. "Ma'am, a suite room for one night costs 200,000 Won. How would you like to settle your account?"

Sulli opened her Louis Vuitton handbag for her wallet. "Here, swipe my credit card." She handled the blue card to the woman.

"There seems to be a problem with your card, ma'am." The receptionist informed Sulli while she returned it back to her.

"Hmmm, maybe I already used that up while shopping," she said bashfully. Sulli picked another card from her wallet and gave it to the woman. "How about this one?"

The quiet room was filled with telephone rings. In the middle of signing papers piled up over the wooden table, the busy businessman stopped his work and answered the call.

"Good evening, Chairman. This is Donghoon, speaking." A hoarse male voice spoke in the other line.

"So, have you done what I told you to do?" The old man was anticipating the caller's response.

"Affirmative, Chairman. They were already taken care of."

A smile formed from Mr. Lee's lips. "Good job, Donghoon. Very good." A satisfying laugh followed from him.

"If you may excuse me, I'll be leaving now." The man on the other line hung up.

He rose from his seat and walked towards the cupboard. Obtaining a bottle of wine, he popped the cork and started pouring the red liquid to his glass. He swirled it before drinking, making his own little celebration.

You're thinking that you can live without my money, huh? Let's see, my obedient granddaughter.

"I'm sorry, ma'am. This one is not working too." The receptionist returned the fifth card to Sulli.

Sulli was already embarrassed. She excused herself to go to the nearest ATM she could find in the hotel. She immediately tried checking her account after reaching the ATM. Her droopy eyes opened its biggest.

YOU CURRENTLY HAVE ZERO BALANCE. The ATM's screen flashed the frightening message.

Oh no! What am I going to do? Sulli tried her best not to panic.

"Sulli Choi, relax. Now, let us see how much money is left." Sulli deeply exhaled. She opened her wallet carefully as if a ghost might pop out of it. She counted the bills left. "10,000 won, it is."

Sulli returned to the reception and inquired. "How much does a regular room cost for a night?"

"That would be 70,000 won, ma'am," the same receptionist answered. Her words sounded like a break-up confession to Sulli. Ouch!

Oh my, how will I get out of here without embarrassing myself too much? Sulli thought.

A light bulb popped out of her mind!
