Chapter 83: Chapter 83: A Wonderful Day

Liu Yiyi floated down the stairs, her pretty face flushed with a rosy hue. The intense allure radiating from her eyes and brows made the hearts of every man who saw her flutter uncontrollably.

Jian Shan, who was stationed near the front desk, had witnessed the beautiful young married woman go upstairs to deliver breakfast. After an hour-long delivery, she left in a hurry.

He really wanted a taste of that "takeout" too! But while his desires were strong, his wallet was weak.

The feeling of envy flashed past. Human nature was like that—if the gap between you and another person was small, you would be jealous of their good luck. But if you realized that a bottomless chasm lay between you, your envy would transform into awe.

Watching the graceful woman leave, Jian Shan picked up his phone and sent a message to a beautiful woman named Annie.

"Mr. Su is at the hotel this morning. He shouldn’t be leaving anytime soon."

Right after the message was sent, a hefty transfer appeared in the chat window. This was their deal, and it was the reason he had arrived at the hotel so early.

Yesterday, a glamorous woman with dark red, wavy hair and large sunglasses had shown up at the hotel asking for Mr. Su. Since Mr. Su had gone out earlier, Jian Shan offered to pass on a message.

However, she said there was no need for such trouble. She simply asked him to keep an eye out and promised him a big red envelope as a reward. Although this violated his professional ethics, the woman repeatedly guaranteed that she would never reveal her source. Besides, even if he refused, someone else would gladly do it.

Finally, the woman made it clear that she only wanted to befriend Mr. Su and had no grudge against him. Of course, the final straw was that the glamorous redhead had simply offered way too much money.

After receiving the tip-off, Annie, a minor actress, mentioned it to her male confidant. He instructed her to pass on a highly lucrative offer. Even a woman like her, who had seen her fair share of the world, felt the conditions were a bit too generous.

Annie carefully dressed up and drove to Celestial Paradise Holiday Hotel.

At exactly eleven o’clock, she arrived at the hotel and headed straight for the restaurant, as Jian Shan had texted her that Mr. Su had just gone downstairs to dine. Standing at the entrance, she checked her reflection, adjusted her makeup and hair, and sauntered gracefully inside.

There weren’t many diners. She spotted Su Yunzhou, who was dressed somewhat plainly, at a glance.

Annie walked straight up to him and tapped the table with her slender fingers.

TAP TAP.

Su Yunzhou looked up in confusion. "Can I help you?"

Annie brushed a hand through her dark red waves and sat down with natural poise. "Hello, Mr. Su! Apologies for the intrusion, my name is Annie."

"Hm?" Su Yunzhou murmured in response.

He looked at the glamorous woman sitting before him. She wore a black lace dress that accentuated her enticing curves and revealed her slender, snow-white legs. A hint of doubt rose in his mind as he wondered, "Who is she?"

Su Yunzhou couldn’t help but frown slightly. "I’ve thought about it carefully, and I don’t believe we’ve met."

HEE HEE HEE.

Annie smiled radiantly, her impressive chest heaving with her laughter. "Saying that to a lady who just struck up a conversation seems a bit ungentlemanly."

"Oh?" A faint smile touched the corner of Su Yunzhou’s mouth. "Then what should I say to appear gentlemanly?"

Leaning forward slightly, Annie took off her sunglasses to reveal a delicate face. Her red lips parted as she spoke. "It’s currently mealtime."

Su Yunzhou shrugged. "Sorry, I don’t make a habit of dining with strangers."

Resting her hand on the chair, Annie’s beautiful eyes flashed with a hint of surprise. This man was indeed quite interesting. "I know your name, and you just learned mine. Are we still considered strangers?"

Hearing this, Su Yunzhou suddenly chuckled. His gaze lingered on her exquisite face, a trace of amusement appearing in his eyes. "Actually, I prefer people who speak their minds."

Seeing him refuse to give her any face, Annie wasn’t the least bit annoyed. She gave a coquettish laugh. "Direct men seem to have more charm."

"The same goes for straightforward women," Su Yunzhou replied.

HEE HEE HEE.

Annie covered her mouth and giggled. "It seems I came at a bad time today. Not a good day for a chat."

With that, she slowly stood up and walked away.

CLICK CLACK CLICK.

Her high heels tapped gracefully against the floor.

"Wait!" Su Yunzhou called out to stop her.

Annie let out a knowing smile. Playing hard to get was truly the most interesting communication tactic between a man and a woman.

"Hmm?"

Su Yunzhou spoke frankly. "I have one last question."

The corners of Annie’s lips curled up. "Sure! But you’ll have to add my contact info before I tell you."

Su Yunzhou considered it for a moment before pulling up his QR code. After she successfully added him, he asked, "Who told you I was here?"

Avoiding the question, Annie replied, "Finding someone isn’t exactly hard."

Su Yunzhou frowned. "I’m not too satisfied with that answer."

"I’m leaving! I’ve already paid for your meal. As a gentleman, you wouldn’t block me, would you?" Annie swayed her full hips and exited the restaurant.

Su Yunzhou watched her leave and couldn’t help but wonder, "What on earth does this woman want?"

At the same time, he pondered who in the hotel had leaked his whereabouts. But it seemed pointless to dwell on it. Just as she implied, it was far too easy to get a hold of his location in a hotel. The concierge, waiters, cleaners—anyone was a suspect.

He sighed. It looked like staying in a hotel wasn’t a viable long-term plan; he really needed to buy a house. However, it seemed he still didn’t have enough money. He needed to figure something out.

The alluring Annie drove away from the hotel. This young, talented man was harder to win over than she had imagined. But prey like this was exactly what made things interesting. Now that she had his contact info, the first step was complete. Next, it was time to prepare for phase two.

Over at Vienna Fun Hotel, the exhausted Lin Shouqing slept until late in the day before slowly waking up. Beside him, Bobo was still fast asleep. He had been forced to perform his "duties" one more time before his client was finally satisfied enough to sleep.

Sunlight filtered through the glass window, which was marked with a few lipstick prints, illuminating the messy bedsheets and the slumbering Bobo. Lin Shouqing couldn’t help but sigh in admiration. The scenery in the big city was indeed more captivating. It was a good thing he had arrived a day early. Otherwise, in his current state, how could he possibly attend his further training at the hospital?

Bobo was awakened by the rustling of him rolling over. She opened her blurry eyes, and upon seeing President Lin, a sweet smile spread across her face. She stretched lazily, careless about exposing her enchanting views.

"Morning, Hubby!"

That word, "Hubby," made a certain someone’s mood surge once again. His lecherous eyes roamed over her bouncing curves, making him chuckle wickedly.

AHH.

Bobo let out a coquettish cry, though her eyes were filled with anticipation and encouragement. "Hubby~ You’re so amazing!"

What other words could compare to such high praise?

The noisy ruckus next door woke Old Wang, who was only a wall away. He sat up with a yawn, sighing about how great it was to be young. But soon after, a sense of stubborn competitiveness welled up inside him. An old man could still summon his youthful vigor; how could he let himself fall behind?

He patted the plump bottom of the down-and-out "princess" beside him—who had also been woken up—and pointed a finger downward.

The princess feigned shyness, and the sudden allure she radiated brought Old Wang immense secret delight. Like a good, sensible girl, she ducked under the thin air-conditioning blanket. Everything else was understood without being said.
