“Yes, that’s correct,” the general manager replied impatiently, giving Heidi a brief glance. “Our hotel policy
prioritizes customers.”
“But the two of them—”
“I heard what this young lady just said,” the lobby manager interjected. “They’re a married couple!”
“Ah…” The general manager pretended to ponder, nodding earnestly. “In that case, it’s an easy solution! Since they
are legally married, it’s only reasonable for them to stay together.”
Heidi stood frozen, completely stunned, while Gia, who stood behind her, wore a grimace.
“General manager, what you’re saying isn’t entirely accurate.” Heidi attempted to salvage the situation. “Doesn’t
Southeast Aciatic’s law stipulate—”

“Well…”
“Using one person’s ID for registration while accommodating two people may be inappropriate, but this situation
doesn’t apply to married couples. Spouses are considered one entity, so it doesn’t matter whose identification is
used.”
“Hah! I’m not a Southeast Aciatic native!” Heidi retorted sarcastically. “Of course, whatever you say goes!”
“Since you’re not a Southeast Aciatic native, then please refrain from meddling in our affairs!” The manager’s voice
boomed like thunder, emphasizing the words “Southeast Aciatic.”
After speaking, he grinned and looked at Zuko. ‘Your Lordship, care to give us a five-star rating?’
Zuko nodded casually and turned his head to hold his wife tightly in his arms.
The manager smiled awkwardly, feeling unnecessary at that moment.
“What kind of attitude is this?” Heidi exclaimed. “I am also a guest at the hotel. Is this how you treat me? I am
following Southeast Aciatic’s laws by reporting my own student. This is showing you respect! Good intentions are
always misunderstood!”
“Miss!” The manager straightened his posture and spoke seriously. “Southeast Aciatic’s laws do indeed stipulate this
way. We do not allow single rooms to accommodate two people to prevent illegal activities. However, this
gentleman and this young lady are legally married.”
Upon hearing the words “legally married,” Lina felt a pang of guilt. She couldn’t help but clutch Zuko’s clothes and
steal a glance at him.
Zuko’s heart almost melted as their eyes met.

He silently vowed to quickly replace the fake marriage certificate with a real one so that the next time they visited
Southeast Aciatic, they could openly hold hands wherever they went and indulge in all the intimate things they
desired…
The manager sneered, continuing. “Miss, if you still don’t believe it, I can find a lawyer to educate you on Southeast
Aciatic’s laws. Or… perhaps you’d prefer to visit the police station and learn firsthand?”
“Well…” Heidi’s face turned pale, and her legs weakened as she took two involuntary steps back.
Gia stepped forward to support her.
Heidi turned her head and glared at her. Why did she involve her in this unreliable situation?
The onlooking students and guests whispered among themselves.
Despite it all, the general manager wore a smile and bowed to Zuko and Lina. “I apologize for the disturbance… As
a gesture of apology, I will upgrade both of you to our hotel’s most luxurious presidential suite!”
“What!?” Lina was deeply astonished.
