The person who came out of the elevator was not Lucia but Xiang Wanwan, who was wearing the hotel employee uniform.
Tang Li speechless.
The scope of the female lead’s part time job was really wide.
Xiang Wanwan pushed the cleaning cart and walked straight to the three adjacent guest rooms.
Tang Li thought for a while and decided to reveal herself, “Xiang Wanwan, what are you doing here?”
The sudden voice stunned Xiang Wanwan, who was about to open the door to the guest room where Qi Tiancheng was at. Then she tured around in surprise and looked at Tang Li who was standing there. She happily greeted her, “Miss Tang, what a coincidence. I didn’t expect to see you here.”
Tang Li nodded and asked, “Are you in charge of cleaning this place?”
“Yes, I’m responsible for cleaning these guest rooms.”
Xiang Wanwan pointed at the three guest rooms. “T’ll be able to get off work after cleaning these three guest rooms tonight.”
Tang Li, “… Then you have to wait. There are already guests in these three guest rooms.”
“Is that so?” Xiang Wanwan, who thought she could get off work earlier today, was a little disappointed.
Tang Li said, “This floor is the guest room reserved by the host for the party downstairs. Most of the rooms are already occupied by drunk guests. If you encounter two drunkards who want to harrass you sexually, that’ll be bad. Just leave.”
Xiang Wanwan was a little surprised. “This floor all occupied? But my manager asked me to come up.”
‘The manager she was talking about was the person in charge of hiring temporary workers when the hotel was busy.
After saying this, she suddenly looked a little sad.
Tang Li said, “Your manager is probably jealous of your beauty and is making things difficult for you.”
Anger flashed across Xiang Wanwan’s face and she nodded. “Miss Tang, thank you for telling me that.”
With that, she was about to leave.
After taking a step, she stopped and said, “I’ve saved more than ten thousand yuan. Do you want me to give you in cash?”
“It’s alright, don’t worry about paying me back yet. You can pay me back when you have saved enough money.”
“Okay.”
With that, Xiang Wanwan pushed the cleaning cart and left.
After Xiang Wanwan left, Tang Li became invisble again.
‘The moment Xiang Wanwan pushed the cart to the elevator, Lucia walked out from one of the elevators.
Lucia came up with Qi Yihan. However, the moment she entered the elevator, she felt her entire body heat up and her mouth dry. After exiting the elevator, she couldn’t take the heat anymore and wanted to find a waiter to pour her a glass of ice water to lower her temperature.
Unexpectedly, as soon as she stepped out of the elevator, she saw the waiter. Lucia immediately ordered, “Go get me a glass of ice water. Hurry.”
Xiang Wanwan was planning to go and settle the scores with the manager but was stopped by Lucia. She said politely, “Miss, there’s ice water in the guest room.”
With that, she sized up the foreign woman in front of her.
She was very beautiful and graceful, but her eyes were unfocused and she kept pulling at her collar, looking like she wanted to take it off. Her face was also abnormally red.
As someone who had worked in all kinds of places, she could instantly tell that this person was obviously drugged. Out of humanitarian reasons, she kindly reminded her, “Miss, do you have a companion? I think you’d better call your companion.”
Lucia came up without telling her brother, so she couldn’t possibly call him. She said impatiently, “Is minding one’s own business no longer something taught at hotels?”
With that, she walked towards the room that Qi Lingxuan told her.
Xiang Wanwan stood there and looked at the woman who was walking into the corridor. She frowned and thought to herself, “Will this miss be safe? Should I tell the manager about this?”
However, when she remembered how the manager asked her to come up and clean the floor when he knew that this floor was fully occupied, she was pissed off and wanted to go down to question him.
She thought for a while and decided to talk to the manager first before coming back here to check in on that Miss. If that Miss was really drugged and set up by someone, she would have to call the police.
At the thought of this, she took the elevator and left.
In the room in the middle.
Qi Lingxuan, who entered first, suddenly felt his body heat up. His heart skipped a beat and he hurriedly asked the artifact spirit, “Am I drugged?”
‘The artifact spirit: “Yes.”
“Why didn’t you remind me before?”
“Ican’t feel this drug. Besides, this drug doesn’t have much of an effect on your current body. You can control it yourself.” As the artifact spirit spoke, he added, “Xu Shize is in the guest room on the right.”
Lingxuan sneered. Luckily, he made the first move. “TIll just see the two-on-one scene later. It’ll definitely be interesting.”
Then, he deliberately said in a voice loud enough to be heard by people in the next room, “Fourth Uncle, I feel a little hot. I have to go to the bathroom.”
He then imitated Qi Yihan’s voice and hummed in agreement.
After confirming that Xu Shize had heard everything clearly, he walked towards the bathroom.
‘When Xu Shize, who was standing behind the screen and listening to the conversation, heard this, the corners of his mouth curled into a smile, waiting to see a good show.
Shortly, the door to the middle guest room opened again.
Xu Shize was excited and secretly peeked into it through the hole. When he saw Qi Tiancheng walk in, his expression changed.
Why was he here?
An ominous feeling rose in his heart. He subconsciously scanned the guest room in the middle but did not see Qi Yihan.
She only saw Qi Lingxuan standing by the bathroom door.
Qi Lingxuan and Qi Tiancheng met face to face. The two of them were stunned at the same time and said, “Why are you here?”
Qi Tiancheng felt like he had been played by Qi Lingxuan. He asked with a fierce expression, “Was it you who sent me those two messages?”
Qi Lingxuan stood there with his eyes lowered and his expression calm, as if he didn’t know what he was talking about.
Qi Tiancheng looked at him for a few seconds. He didn’t like his First Uncle’s illegitimate son from the first time he saw him. This person was obviously a ghetto hooligan. What right did he have to be on equal footing with them? Especially tonight, at such an important party, Fourth Uncle didn’t bring him
here but brought this illegitimate son instead. It made him extremely unhappy.
The more he thought about it, the angrier he became. He was prepared to teach him a lesson.
At the thought of this, he walked towards Qi Lingxuan angrily.
Qi Lingxuan suddenly said, “Fourth Uncle is in the washroom. Are you sure you want to come over?”
These words made Qi Tiancheng stop in his tracks. A hint of panic flashed across his eyes at first, but then he said in disbelief, “How is that possible!”
Lucia would come to this room pretty soon, so that meant Fourth Uncle was set up by someone?
At this thought, Qi Tiancheng sneered and walked towards him with his fist raised.
Qi LIngxuan looked at his fist, and a murderous intent flashed across his eyes.
Right at this moment, Qi Tiancheng’s body shuddered, and a burst of extremely hot air surged out from his body. In the end, it struck directly at his vital points, causing him to tremble.
At the same time, Xu Shize, who was hiding behind the painting, also felt the surging heatwave in his body.
