Thinking she had misheard, Su Jiu pricked up her ears, but she still heard a rustling at the door.

She woke up with a start and quickly got out of bed. Picking up her phone and fruit knife from the bedside table, she carefully walked along the wall to the door.

Then she heard a beep and the door opened!

Su Jiu jumped, her heart in her mouth. There was no time to see who opened the door. She turned and rushed to the bathroom inside, locking the door behind her.

Through the frosted glass door, she saw a figure walk to the door. Su Jiu’s heart was in her throat. She wondered who had the audacity to barge into her room in the middle of the night.

And he actually had a card to my room?

Suddenly, she was glad that she had woken up and had a chance to hide there. That person wouldn’t be able to come in for a while. Otherwise, she wouldn’t know what to do. There was nowhere to run!

The person stopped at the bathroom door as if he were waiting for her to come out. Su Jiu could vaguely see that the figure was tall, and she was sure it was a man.

She hurriedly called the hotel’s front desk and asked them to call security immediately. The hotel’s front desk said they would send someone up immediately.

After hanging up, Su Jiu took a deep breath and mustered her courage. Then she asked the man outside, “Who are you, and what do you want?”

To her surprise, Xia Yi’s voice came from outside. “Don’t be afraid, Little Jiu. It’s me.”

Su Jiu was speechless.

How could it be him?!

She didn’t let her guard down. Frowning, she asked, “Why are you here? Why do you have a card for my room? How did you get in?!”

Her tone was tough, and she was obviously angry. Xia Yi quickly replied, “Little Jiu, don’t be nervous. This is actually a misunderstanding! Well… I lost my room card and went to the hotel reception to ask them to give me a spare room card. I said the wrong room number and gave them your room number without realizing it. So, I got a card and came in like this.

“But as soon as I came in, I realized something was wrong. I quickly checked the room number and realized it was your room.”

Su Jiu’s frown deepened.

He makes it sound so logical, but how could he even get his room number wrong? And to mistake it for my room number?!

Xia Yi sounded guilty. “I’m sorry, Little Jiu. I didn’t mean it. Don’t be angry. I’ll leave now. Also, I’ll return the spare room card to the hotel receptionist. Nothing like this will happen again. Don’t worry!”

Hearing his footsteps leaving, Su Jiu relaxed a little. She took a deep breath to adjust her mood before opening the door and walking out.

When Xia Yi left the room, the security guard rushed up and asked anxiously, “Miss Su, what happened?”

Although Xia Yi’s words left her puzzled, Su Jiu did not want to blow things up. If word got out, she would not be able to explain herself.

She thought for a moment and said, “It’s all right. I just thought I saw a figure outside the French windows and was shocked. Then I realized I was mistaken. Sorry to trouble you.”

“No, no, no. It’s no trouble. I’m glad you’re okay,” the security guard said, relieved.

Fortunately, the little princess is fine. Otherwise, we would be doomed.

After the security guard left, Su Jiu closed the door. The more she thought about what had happened, the angrier she became.

If the person who came in was not the Xia Yi she knew but some shady person, she really did not know what would have happened!
