“Sure! We have vacant rooms.” Carol worked in the inn to welcome and bid farewell to numerous guests, but this was her first time to meet such a good-looking guy of mysterious feature.

Kern followed Carol to the lobby. He could see the clean windows of the inn all the way. Standing in front of the reception, he also got the view of the yard as well as some of the further Erhai Lake through a glass folding door.

Right now, he noticed a bamboo recliner on the corridor of yard; soon he shifted his eye contact.

Carol introduced to him, “Sir, we have an agreement for you before check-in. Could you please read it and sign?” She never knew the reasons to make such a weird agreement with guests. Yet she had to do as the owner told and there was not exception since she started to work here.

If guests wanted to live in, they had to sign the agreement.

Kern got it and seemed to be curious…he neither heard about the rule that guests would make an agreement with some other hotels or inns.
