Chapter 3, The right path in life is the proper way

Yang Xiaoguang gasped for a long time, and only after a while did his mind finally turn around. He finally thought of something to say, "Are you really so short on money that you would offer us such a price and also take on this kind of work?"

There will also be additional job opportunities there

Who is that boy

When he thought of Yang Xiaoguang, the corners of his lips gently curled up

Zhai Ming smiled and said, "I am not under my mother's control, nor am I as ambitious as you. Wherever I can make money, I will go, whether it is legitimate or not. Recently, I made a good amount of money through legitimate means, hey!" He patted Pan Yilun on the shoulder, "You will be quite busy in the future, so let's meet less often, and your mother would be happy about that."

Pan Yilun nodded

Pan Yilun said: "Mom, don't overthink it. I have to be admitted to the hospital for dialysis tomorrow, so get some rest early."

What brings you here again? Company socializing? You see, everyone needs to work

In the many days that followed, Yang Xiaoguang often suspected that the extraordinary encounter of that evening was an unreal and coincidental dream

Yang Xiaoguang then stated: "In this case, the construction period will be executed according to the contract and cannot be delayed. Regarding the issue of work-related injuries, our company will provide an explanation after research. However, if this causes a delay in the construction period, we will still be required to compensate according to the contract requirements"

He said, "I will handle it." After speaking, he dragged Yang Xiaoguang out the door

She often comforts herself, saying that she is someone who is too adaptable, always just a little soldier who obeys the orders of her superiors

Pan Yilun's home is merely 20 square meters, with one door and one window, cramped and rudimentary. The kitchen is an illegal structure built outside under a rain shelter, where at this moment, Pan's mother is simmering red date soup in a small purple clay pot.

The project member said: "What else do you know? Someone got injured and you are unwilling to take responsibility."

The workers exchanged glances, speechless. However, the leader stubbornly replied, "Isn't it all for the sake of meeting the deadline? We are working overtime; how can we find time to manage anything else?"

Pan Yilun gazed at the photograph of his father. He now resembled his father from that time, but his father had transformed from an educated youth in the big city into a skilled farmer. Years of outdoor labor had made him much darker and sturdier than Pan, exuding a boldness as if he could withstand the weight of the heavens.

He faced her, and Yang Xiaoguang couldn't help but look at him again: "So confident?"

Yang Xiaoguang has always known that he is easily swayed. His words inevitably softened her heart. She candidly stated: "Your advantages are quite evident, but we also need to consider various factors comprehensively; a final decision has not yet been made."

Yang Xiaoguang called out to the store manager, saying: "You all—" Before the words were finished, he was covered mouth by Pan Yilun

Informant

Yang Xiaoguang shook off his hand and shouted at him in rapid succession: "Why can't you just learn to be better? In the three hundred sixty trades, which one does not accommodate people? If you become famous in the future, how embarrassing will this be? Why can't you be a bit more positive and upward in life?"

The nearest district central hospital. The other party sighed and spoke the truth, "We have no choice; Old Li has injured his leg, and it seems likely that he will have a fracture. Our manager will not cover the medical expenses; you are a large company, and this small amount of medical expenses is not a big issue for you, but it is a significant problem for Old Li!"

The workers behind began to stir, each shouting, "First, let's talk about responsibility." Seeing this situation, Yang Xiaoguang simply asked, "What do you want to do?"

Xu An nodded, as he valued Pan Yilun's sales abilities highly, even though he could not offer him a higher salary

Mother Pan took out the nutritional supplements and said: "Is it that Zhai Ming sent again?"

This leader, compared to the identity of a wealthy bachelor, is more suited to being a versatile workaholic. He has been with "Jun Yuan" for just over a month, working almost every day until the early hours, which stands in stark contrast to the CEO, Philip, who advocates for a hands-off approach to management

The adjacent exhibition area has been completed, and the workers are laughing and chatting as they finish their work and head home. The staff of the exhibition area has begun to inventory the printed materials prepared for display

Only then did she remember to ask her friend: "What are you doing here?"

Mother Pan watched as her son served her another bowl of red date soup, silently sipping it. She glanced at the nutritional supplements sent by Zhai Ming, swallowing the words she wanted to say.

Zhai Ming said: "The woman who was drunk that day looks very familiar. Back when I was at the Youth Education Institute, I noticed that you carried two photos with you. Is one of them..."

She inexplicably began to comfort him, praising him: "Good child"

The other party insisted: "The most concerning aspect of collaborating with a company like yours is the lack of responsibility when issues arise. It is better to clarify this in advance."

Merry said with a smile, "If you have made up your mind, come and give it a try here"

Every person with multiple roles must have their own undisclosed reasons. Yang Xiaoguang did not inquire further and simply said: "You have good conditions, make sure to cherish the opportunity well"

Pan Yilun said: "You are drunk"

Conduct a covert investigation

He walked out of the exhibition center

He organized all the items for his mother's hospitalization neatly, prepared a basin of hot water, washed his mother's feet, and helped her to bed

Yang Xiaoguang waved his hand and said, "Masters, you must let me see the site before you speak, right?"

Behind her followed a boy dressed similarly to Pan Yilun, with handsome features, who was likely familiar with Pan Yilun. He asked, "Lunzi, is there any trouble?"

... ...

The other party's group was rendered speechless

The other party said: "Yes"

Zhai Ming said: "The boss's wife also mentioned that there are major clients who want to be formally introduced to you, and the salary is considerably better than what you earned from that advertisement." He noticed Pan Yilun's expression change slightly, so he smiled and added, "Brother knows that you have always been reluctant to wade into these murky waters, and your mother also doesn't want me to lead you astray. So, you see, I don't even dare to meet your mother and can only wait for you here."

She looked at herself; there was dust on her shoes, dust on her pants, dust on her clothes, and undoubtedly dust in her hair, making her naturally less clean and bright than him. She was unwilling to be outdone: "Has the little boy turned over a new leaf?"

Pan Yilun did not argue: "Is it not possible to turn over a new leaf?"

He is a newcomer, and it is impossible for him to have a lot of work or earn a lot of money all at once. However, there are still other opportunities to earn extra income at the nightclub. Therefore, he did not rashly sign a contract with Mary; he only goes to do temporary work whenever he is notified of available jobs, such as shooting promotional photos for advertisements. So far, he has only taken on five or six jobs.

He couldn't help but speak to her first: "Eating so quickly makes it easy to gain weight"

Pan Yilun returned to the printing factory first. The printing factory was opened by Xu An, a person from Wenzhou. He handed the received check to Xu An, who was recording the accounts while asking him: "After you become a model, will you still work here?"

You should visit Old Li more often; his wife mentioned that he fell quite hard this time

Yang Xiaoguang asked: "Do you really not care about this matter, Fei Xin?"

He settled the accounts with Xu An, and Xu An paid this month's salary to Pan Yilun

Today has been quite hectic, as I practiced body movement in the training room "Tianming" located in the CBD in the morning, waited for the printing of posters and flyers at the printing factory in the Northern Industrial Park in the afternoon, and then I still need to deliver goods to the exhibition center in the Western District

Zhai Ming walked over and snatched the business card from Pan Yilun's hand: "Alright, Wheel, it's a modeling agency. You are about to step into the entertainment industry now!"

Yang Xiaoguang said: "We need to discuss the actual situation after we have seen it, but the schedule is tight, and the opening is the day after tomorrow. I kindly ask everyone to help and prioritize completing this part of the work first before we discuss further"

Thus, this place has become a home where Pan Yilun can take refuge. Fortunately, amidst this vast modern metropolis, there exists such a gap, allowing him a place to stay, and he has always thought this way

She pushed through the crowd, allowing the intern to lead the way as they conducted a site inspection according to the construction drawings. Having gained an understanding of the situation, she spoke to the other party: "The wooden stake fell horizontally from the connection point and struck the A-frame ladder; it should be the electrician who was injured, right?"

She inspected the construction tools once again, leaving the leading worker on the other side blushing and scratching his head, saying: "Miss Yang, you can rest assured"

Our worker was injured at your construction site. Since you are urging the work to proceed, the medical expenses and lost wages should be covered by you

Then the car started moving, and Yang Xiaoguang wanted to get up, but Fang Zhu held him down: "Just stop fidgeting."

Yang Xiaoguang cast a glance at the leader He Zhixuan, thinking to himself that the once honest and simple student council members, upon entering the university of society, ultimately could not escape the common ways of the world

His tone was unarguably resolute, and Pan's mother let out a faint sigh

He said: "Anytime"

Yang Xiaoguang insisted, "In theory, our company is not liable for compensation." However, after a moment's thought, she swallowed the "however" and added, "I will communicate with General Manager Fei on your behalf."

The A-frame ladder has a slight issue; it seems to be missing a nut. From the direction it fell, it appears that the A-frame ladder fell first, subsequently bringing down the wooden stake.

He spent three years in the juvenile education center, and his mother moved from the originally rented workshop to this bungalow. She works two jobs every day, serving as a stock clerk in a supermarket in the morning and running a small stall selling fried noodles and wontons on the street at night, often having to be cautious of urban management patrols.

Pan Yilun recalled the scene of his interview here, which was far less systematic and complicated than the interview at "Jun Yuan"

So, does he have a chance to reconcile with his friend? Of course, Yang Xiaoguang would not be foolish enough to probe into He Zhixuan's intentions.

Is it reasonable and legal? Can she really say no? Yang Xiaoguang smiled and nodded on the surface, saying, "I will cooperate with them on-site tonight!" Yet, what she thought in her heart was that not having a boyfriend to spend her after-work hours with was truly a tragedy

Zhai Ming asked: "Are you sure you are not going to Gubei?"

I am the cheapest he laughed

The other party nodded: "Old Li is a temporary worker hired by the labor company, not part of our official staff. Our General Manager Fei has made it clear that it is not our responsibility"

Pan Yilun was dressed in a white shirt and black trousers, with two buttons of the shirt collar undone. The hem of the shirt was tucked into his pants, and his hair was styled with gel, standing upright. His eyebrows were also noticeably well-groomed. He escorted a drunken female guest out, who wrapped her arms around his neck. He gently pushed her hands away and leaned in to whisper something in her ear. The female guest released her grip, playfully patted his chest, and wobbled away.

"In the end, one must still follow the right path!" Pan's mother murmured at last

After she finished speaking, she wrote a note and handed it over: "This is the phone number of our engineering department manager. If you need anything, feel free to call him for assistance." Then she directed the others to disperse and continue working

Does this boy know that he is so good-looking it could be deadly? She thought, his eyes stand out even more in the light, strikingly black and white.

The rent here is not very high, as there may be a demolition notice at any time

Pan Yilun patted Zhai Ming's hand and watched him leave

Therefore, she has recently been busy taking time out to ponder her little gossip thoughts. She has long since learned that He Zhixuan has not remarried to this day, is successful in his career, and possesses an impressive appearance. In today's marriage market, he belongs to the category of a diamond bachelor, always able to stir the emotional ripples of those unmarried young women

Xu An gave him a notebook: "Inside are the phone numbers of those advertising companies. You should start contacting them for business this week!"

What kind of cigarettes are you, a minor boy, smoking

Upon graduating from university, Yang Xiaoguang immediately joined "Junyuan," where she was trained by Old Chen. Having worked alongside Old Chen for so many years, she found herself with no choice but to follow his decisions.

Someone passing by called out to Yang Xiaoguang: "Aguang?"

After the meal, He Zhixuan and Old Chen were quite considerate towards the several female colleagues who accompanied them, allowing them to leave early

However, by the time she finished work, she had still elegantly changed into a brightly colored suit and applied some makeup

When Mei Li decided to sign him, she said: "You must resign from your job at the nightclub." The reason was the same as what Yang Xiaoguang had mentioned.

He has become accustomed to changing his work identity every day, seeking a space for survival in this city

Little boy? What are you doing here?

They seek justice for their companions, being kind-hearted and diligent honest workers. Yang Xiaoguang felt a pang of sympathy in her heart as she took the lunch box, eating while contemplating ways to help.

Pan Yilun was clearly taken aback by the sudden appearance of Yang Xiaoguang, turning to look at her as if he had seen a ghost, momentarily unable to respond.

Pan Yilun pushed against the ground with his hand and stood up: "I understand what you said."

Pan Yilun slept on a makeshift wire bed next to the large bed. Due to the limited space, he could only squeeze into a room with his mother. After laying out his bedding, he took out two photographs from under his pillow

Mother Pan said: "Old Li next door injured his leg today and was just sent to the district central hospital. Alas, we people really cannot afford to be ill. It was you who introduced him to that construction team to work as an electrician. With such an incident happening, we also feel quite guilty in our hearts"

Yang Xiaoguang opened her mouth, and the boy in front of her was clearly impatient with her admonition as he changed the subject. She glared at him and said, "You are so young, why do you want to do such work?"

She met the handsome youth Pan Yilun, who was suspected to be working at a host club. She also encountered her friend Fang Zhu, who was visiting a nightclub at night. Finally, in the car, Fang Zhu gazed out the window, lost in thought.

This is a bungalow area situated between the emerging business district and high-end residential buildings in the eastern district. Developer A has been developing the business district piece by piece from west to east, while Developer B has been developing the residential area piece by piece from east to west, inadvertently stopping on either side of this bungalow area. It was only after the high-rise buildings were completed that they realized they had overlooked this piece in the middle. Consequently, both developers expressed their interest in this land to the local government, which, unable to reach a decision at the time, left this bungalow area humorously standing in the heart of the bustling center.

Pan Yilun gained entry in just three months and has been working continuously since then, securing numerous major clients for the printing factory. Businesspeople from Wenzhou prioritize efficiency, which is why they have always treated him with great courtesy

Pan Yilun handed a bowl of red date soup to his mother, without saying a word

The female manager in the store came out upon hearing the commotion and immediately reprimanded Pan Yilun: "On the last day, you are causing trouble for me. Quickly apologize to the customer."

Yang Xiaoguang sat at one end, while Pan Yilun stood at the other end, amidst the bustling exhibition booth construction site, where the lights were as bright as day. She saw him, and he saw her.

She wanted to say something to Fang Zhu, but her thoughts were always unclear. As she tilted her head, she involuntarily fell into a deep slumber.

The intern behind her saw a turning point in the situation and immediately chimed in: "Exactly! Are you trying to swindle us? Fortunately, our sister Yang is very meticulous."

The mother and son had soup, and Pan Yilun began to help his mother organize her clothes

I have already obtained my identity card

Pan Yilun interrupted him, saying: "Zhai Ming, it would be best if you refrain from getting involved in those matters again"

Yang Xiaoguang steadied himself and said to his female colleagues: "You all go back first, I will sober up."

He leaned closer to her, peering at the lunch box in her hand: "Shredded bamboo shoots with pork, fried pork chop, Thai jasmine rice, the meal is quite good"

Pan's mother turned over and suddenly said: "Yilun, I will leave my illness to fate!"

She was still glaring at him, still wanting to speak. In the end, he glanced at her, closed the car door for them, and said: "Goodbye"

Yang Xiaoguang frowned: "I have never realized."

Most of the houses in the bungalow area were built in the 1960s, constructed brick by brick by the long-time residents themselves. After so many years, most of the houses here can hardly withstand the wind and rain, becoming both dilapidated and worn out. However, the old Shanghainese, whenever they have a bit of money or connections, have moved their families out of this unsuitable living area and have rented the houses to those in need.

He simply said: "It is very late, and you have to work tomorrow"

Pan Yilun walked over, and Zhai Ming handed him the nutritional supplement he was holding. Pan Yilun said: "Thank you"

Yang Xiaoguang heard Pan Yilun standing over there asking: "Have you switched careers to join the construction team?"

He looked at his father for a long time before taking out the second photograph. The smiling face on it was bright and sunny, as if it could dispel all shadows. He smiled at that face but still tucked it back under his pillow

Pan Yilun interrupted his mother, saying: "I know"

Yang Xiaoguang snorted coldly: "Can I rest assured?" However, someone was injured after all. She asked, "Which hospital was the injured worker sent to?"

The intern blushed and asked, "Sister Xiao Yang, I have plans to watch a movie with my boyfriend tonight. Can I leave work on time?"

Pan Yilun set down the poster tube and found a vacant spot to sit across from her: "When can we sign the contract?"

Xu An was not surprised that Pan Yilun would say such words; it is quite normal for someone who has worked in sales to express such sentiments. He said, "There are still plenty of opportunities for cooperation!" He thought to himself, this young child has a bright future ahead, and the saying 'do not underestimate the youth for their poverty' is indeed a profound truth

Zhai Ming asked him: "Is it time to change lines? Should the worker here resign?"

For instance, a group of models and their agents from "Tianming" were having fun at a nightclub. While Mei Li was chatting with the bartender in front of the bar, she caught a glimpse of Pan Yilun, who was silently washing glasses. She then approached him and handed him a business card, saying: "Little brother, if you are interested in the modeling industry, you can come find me"

A familiar voice on the other end said: "A total of 4,800, here is the invoice"

Mother Pan said lightly: "It is just right for drinking"

Yang Xiaoguang supported the newcomer and said: "Zhuzi, you are indeed here."

The collaboration with the new leader He Zhixuan at Tongfang Zhuqian has been very smooth. He Zhixuan's professional experience and interpersonal relationships quickly played a significant role in the company's business expansion, and his decisiveness has earned great admiration from Yang Xiaoguang

What a coincidence again, she thought

He asked Mary: "So how much workload will there be on your end? How much work time will it take?"

Recently, He Zhixuan has been leading his colleagues from the team during some business engagements, and Lao Chen has unknowingly established a subtle, unspoken alliance with He Zhixuan at some point in time

The intern flattered, "Sister Xiao Yang, you are truly impressive"

He just watched from the side, making Yang Xiaoguang feel embarrassed to continue eating. She turned her head away, retracting the gaze she had directed at him.

Fortunately, he thought, otherwise Yang Xiaoguang would definitely have some thoughts in her heart again

This nightclub occupies both the first and second floors. On the first floor, there are several very popular male hosts who specifically cater to female guests. Yang Xiaoguang was aware of this, so her dizzy head was suddenly jolted, and she found herself rushing over uncontrollably

Pan Yilun held down Zhai Ming's hand and said, "Wait a moment."

The leader of the opposing side was making a commotion, while Yang Xiaoguang politely stepped forward and said: "Let us first understand the situation; I ask everyone to remain calm."

Pan Yilun smiled

She does not seem older than him at all

Pan Yilun said: "Mom, what are you saying? Don't think about anything, starting tomorrow, focus on getting better."

Pan Yilun listened attentively and nodded

At that time, my mother often suffered from diarrhea and also exhibited symptoms of anemia. It was only later that he learned she had uremia

Until recently, Mei Li mentioned that the company had new projects and decided to nurture a few newcomers to see if they could seize good opportunities. The first advertisement arranged for him was a beverage commercial for "Jun Yuan," which, being a major brand, served as an excellent platform for newcomers to showcase their talents.

In the morning, Meili took international brand clothing from the "Tianming" boutique for him to try on, followed by a runway training session. The image reflected in the training room was neither the same as his self in the printing factory nor the same as his self in the nightclub

Tomorrow, my mother will be able to be admitted to the hospital. The long-awaited bed has finally become available, and we can begin her dialysis treatment.

Pan Yilun turned over, and the moon outside was very bright, casting moonlight evenly over the business district, high-end residential area, and the bungalow area. He closed his eyes, as he needed a good rest to cope with the journey tomorrow

At this moment, the lights are just beginning to shine, and the entire building is bustling like a department store during a sale, with a constant flow of people, the fragrance of clothing, and enticing aromas in the air

It is understandable, yet it cannot be justified

It seems that there are connections, and even the heavens will give a sign, as coincidences begin to increase.

Once in a state of high-speed operation at work, Yang Xiaoguang sets aside trivial matters and works twice as hard

Yang Xiaoguang smiled: "Thank you for your cooperation. If there are any issues with your equipment, please feel free to communicate with us. Our company's engineering department has the necessary tools."

The printing factories run by people from Wenzhou are not as formal as those of large companies. The salespeople they hire not only need to double as delivery personnel but also must be knowledgeable in various design software, understand the different formats for image design, be familiar with the types and characteristics of paper, and comprehend the features of printing machines

Pan Yilun said: "Boss Xu, I will need to rely on your support in the future"

As she descended the stairs and walked into the lobby, she raised her eyes and seemed to vaguely see a woman dressed in a low-cut, sexy Sisley dress, resembling a square bamboo, slipping into the side entrance of the nightclub

Yang Xiaoguang was at a loss for words; she asked him, "How many jobs have you actually worked?"

The salesperson at the main printing factory, a part-time model, and a part-time nightclub bartender. He paused, that night was the last day working at the nightclub, and afterwards he would work full-time as an advertising model at 'Tianming'

When Yang Xiaoguang arrived at the scene, a dozen or so people were confronting the intern.

Pan Yilun pressed his lips tightly together, lowered his head, and took out a cigarette case from his pants pocket. He skillfully pulled out a cigarette, but before he could place it in his mouth, Yang Xiaoguang snatched it away and threw it on the ground, stomping on it several times.

Zhai Ming is waiting at the alley entrance with nutritional supplements in hand

The picture above is of my childhood self. That year, he was still in Libo, standing at the village entrance with his parents, with green mountains and clear waters behind them. The three of them were not ones to pose for the camera, and with the help of relatives from the neighboring city, they awkwardly took this photo.

The situation is as follows: there was an industrial accident during the construction of an anime exhibition project she was in charge of, where a worker was injured and suffered a fracture due to being struck by a wooden stake. The intern responsible on-site was unable to handle the workers demanding compensation and called for help in a tearful voice.

This time, Mei Li was determined to have Pan Yilun resign from his job at the nightclub; otherwise, this opportunity would not be offered to him. The salary conditions she proposed provided him with sufficient reason to quit this job

Is the ladder provided by our company

However, even if there is a lot of work, he will strive to complete everything that needs to be done during the day, and he never uses his evenings to work overtime at the printing factory. This is because he also needs to attend night school and work part-time as a bartender at a nightclub, which requires him to go four days a week

Xu An only asked him one question: "When can I start working?"

The restaurant is located in a somewhat aged building, with the restaurant on the top floor and two nightclubs on the floors below

I understand

Yang Xiaoguang said with a smile: "It's just experience"

This is truly an irritating winter night, and Yang Xiaoguang has also been affected, leading to new troubles at work.

He did not speak out; he had long seen her sitting on a box casually placed on the ground, devouring her boxed meal with great appetite, enjoying it thoroughly, and showing no concern for her image

Mother Pan took the soup and said: "I do not oppose you making friends, but he also comes from a juvenile detention center"

Mom, I'm here, you can go in and rest. Pan Yilun placed the nutritional supplements sent by Zhai Ming at the door and casually took over the task from Pan's mother.

Yang Xiaoguang had a bit to drink. Having been in the industry for many years, she is quite a regular at business banquets, yet she has not been able to build up her tolerance for alcohol. After just a couple of drinks, she starts to feel dizzy

Pan Yilun bid farewell to Xu An and returned to his residence in the East District

Pan Yilun said, "If there is still time, then of course."

The worker gratefully handed over the lunch box: "Please, I beg you to help me."

Yang Xiaoguang, feeling a surge of alcohol, instinctively raised her voice sharply: "What is it that you are doing wrong, doing this? Be careful, or we will not allow you to be our spokesperson!"

Pan Yilun turned around, and Yang Xiaoguang saw the shop sign behind him

She took a few more steps toward the entrance of the nightclub and looked around, but there was no sign of Fang Zhu. Yang Xiaoguang rubbed her temples with her hand, thinking that perhaps she had mistaken him for someone else. She simply sat down on the sofa in the lobby of the building to rest.

Yang Xiaoguang's mind finally clicked, and she suddenly understood what he was doing, swaying as she was about to rush over. Pan Yilun reached out to steady her and said, "I am working."

On this day, He Zhixuan and Old Chen hosted an important client, who, despite being somewhat older, chose a well-known restaurant in the city's red-light district. Yang Xiaoguang couldn't help but mutter to himself: a man in his fifties still unable to maintain his dignity, so indulgent.

No

However, Yang Xiaoguang still could not get used to or adapt to it. She gathered her spirits, stood up, and prepared to go home. Just as she got up, she saw an acquaintance.

Pan Yilun shook his head, having already called a taxi for them, and stuffed Yang Xiaoguang along with Fang Zhu into the car

"Tianming" collaborated with a film and television company to produce a youth idol drama, and he was recommended by Meili to work as an extra. Although the pay was not substantial, the assistant director praised him a few times

Today, he wore the same T-shirt and jeans as before, topped with an old down jacket. However, he looked clean and tidy overall, with a poster tube slung over his shoulder, indicating that he was here to make a delivery again

Pan Yilun was taken aback when he saw the name of the advertising company, such a coincidence, such a quick turn of events

Fang Zhu supported her as she swayed unsteadily and said, "I will take you home"

Pan Yilun called out: "Mom"

The lobby here has been restored to the style of old Shanghai, with floor-to-ceiling steel windows adorned with red velvet curtains. The lobby is decorated with tuberose flowers, and there is a porcelain white statue of a nude woman playing in the water.
