"A pretty lady, calling for a young man for room 808." A clear and abrupt female voice echoed in the hotel lobby early in the morning.
In the resplendent lobby, all the waitstaff stared blankly at the petite young girl with alert eyes and brows. She was wrapped in a thin blanket, messy hair on her head, and with a small hand, slapped a check on the front desk in front of the pretty lady, smiling merrily at her.
Ignore the bizarre dress, that small face is still very delicate.
The front desk lady's face turned pale as she stared at her in a daze. If she remembered correctly, the gentleman in room 808...was the renowned CEO of Tang Corporation, Tang Tianye!
He was their most honored customer here. Could it be that the renowned CEO Tang had that kind of...hobby…?
Before she could think any further, she received a glare from Jin Xiaobei. Her delicate little mouth pouted unhappily, "What, not enough money?"
The front desk lady looked at her domineering and flamboyant manner, then lowered her head to look at the 5 million dollar check, and quickly nodded, "Yes, yes, yes, we will do it right away."
She had seen the signature on the check, and it was undoubtedly Tang Tianye's handwriting... Having made so much money and being able to serve Tang Tianye well, won't it be the best of both worlds?
Seeing her put away the check and arrange for the staff, Jin Xiaobei finally withdrew her hand, nodded satisfactorily, "Prepare a set of clothes for this lady."
VIP suite, luxury everywhere.
Tang Tianye got up and walked to the table, his slender and strong arm popping open a bottle of red wine. He had just taken a bath, with only a towel wrapped around his waist. Broad shoulders, narrow waist, tall and straight figure, muscular, slender and powerful, it was obviously a first-class figure. He raised his hand, elegantly sipped the red wine, his cold eyes flickering.
Last night, he just went to the bar, wanting to personally retrieve Monica's gift. But he didn't expect that when he returned, the lights were off and there was an extra person in his bed.
He thought it was arranged by Monica, and drunken him didn't notice anything wrong and spent a night of romantic bliss with her.
But who would have thought that a calculating woman caught the opportunity!
Thinking of that hateful woman, a rush of anger instantly surfaced on his handsome face.
"Name your price," he had just offered her a check and asked her to keep it a secret. She blinked her dark, innocent eyes, pretending to be clueless.
"What money?"
"Don't play dumb, is 5 million enough?" He nonchalantly pulled out a check, quickly signed his name, and handed it over to her.
Suddenly, she seemed to snap out of her trance, angrily throwing the check at his face. "What's the meaning of this? Who asked for your money?"
But what happened next? Before he could throw her out of the booth, didn't she grab for the check as if it was some priceless treasure? Hypocritical woman!
Resolutely, he downed the red wine in his glass in one go. His throbbing Adam's apple, combined with his refined jawline, was incomparably enticing.
Just as the young waiter opened the door, he was met with such an alluring sight.
Wow, such an exceptional man. Despite the rumors from the shabby girl that he was the submissive one, his frigid demeanor did not give off that impression. But who cares? An attractive man like him is always a catch, be it dominant or submissive.
Tang Tianye looked up to see the burly waiter standing at the door, a mischievous expression plastered on his face.
He raised an eyebrow, his voice turning icy, "Yes?"
The young waiter respectfully bowed and approached him carefully. Once he was close, the waiter felt overwhelmed by his elegant and high-rank aura.
"Umm, that is, Mr. Tang, should I handle it, or would it be better if you did...?"
Handle what? Tang Tianye's eyebrows raised in confusion. What did he mean?
Used to being served by others, Tang Tianye thought he was referring to opening a bottle of wine and said nonchalantly, "You."
The young waiter's eyes instantly lit up, he stared at Tang Tianye's breathtaking face, rubbing his hands together...
"Very well, then, excuse my intrusion…" Saying so, he lunged towards Tang Tianye ——
"What are you doing?!" Tang Tianye, swift and nimble, clutched him and with a shoulder throw effortlessly sent this burly man sprawling onto the ground!
The man bellowed while being pinned down by a harsh stomp on his leg. He opened his eyes and was met with a chilling, handsome face and immediately began to beg.
"Spare me, please, Mr. Tang, it was the little girl who said you were looking for a young man to serve you......"
Little girl? Upon hearing this, Tang Tianye's face grew even colder, and he couldn't help but picture the petite, yet imposing figure...
The woman, who earlier had been audacious enough to both scold and slap him, apparently had even more nerve now...
With a brutal kick on the man's leg, he gritted his teeth and scowled, "Scram!"
He shot a fierce glare towards the door: Woman, you're done for!
Suddenly, his phone began to chime. He answered it.
A feminine and flirtatious laugh immediately trickled into his ears, "Tianye, I assume you already have received the surprise I mentioned yesterday, the handmade Swiss watch, the one you love the most."
"What? I'm still in France preparing for the competition."
"But..." She suddenly lowered her voice, oozing charm.
"If, as you're thinking, I sneak into your room and present myself as a gift, it wouldn't be impossible for us to... have some fun after the competition~"
Her seductive voice sent shivers down his spine, and Tang Tianye's face grew colder. He suddenly realized he might have wrongfully accused that little girl......
Jin Xiao Bei, after dressing in the blue dress provided by the hotel, washed her face at the sink, and looking up at her disheveled reflection in the mirror. This entire situation was too hard to believe! She had mustered all her courage to confess her feelings to Bai Yifeng, only to end up inexplicably involved with another man! Her innocence, her future – all had been ruined!
Wiping away her tears, she straightened her back and walked out of the hotel. She told herself that she would be alright. Jin Xiaobei, isn't it just that the scoundrel had his way with you? Consider it just like having been bitten by a dog. But when she thought of Bai Yifeng, an indescribable sadness welled up within her. She has just gone to room 806, but there was no one inside.
She turned on her phone to find several unread texts and missed calls from Bai Yixuan.
"Xiaobei, I've been trying to call you but to no avail. I received a last-minute notice and had to go to America. I'm sorry, you will have to dine alone tonight."
So, Bai Yifeng didn't show up at all last night. And he didn't know her feelings for him after all; he just thought it was a dinner invitation... All this time, she was just entertaining her own fantasies.
As she walked aimlessly down the road, she became lost in her thoughts. She had known Bai Yixuan for over a decade. She had liked him ever since they were children. After harboring a crush on him for these many years, she had finally gathered the courage to tell him last night.
But then, this happened. Could she still confess her feelings nonchalantly when they meet again, looking forward to their future together?
No, she couldn't... She is no longer pure, no longer worthy of him. Her dreams of marriage, of a happy life... all shattered.
The phone rang again, interrupting her thoughts.
Seeing the caller, Jin Xiaobei was surprised to find that it was Bai Yifeng! Her heart trembled. Her hand froze while gripping the phone, her mind was a whirl of chaos. Bai Yifeng, how should she speak with him...?
No, she couldn't take this call. She is no longer from his world. He is so flawless, and she is so tarnished!
She gritted her teeth, decisively hanging up on him! As she held her head high and walked a few steps forward, she realized that a tear had unknowingly slipped from the corner of her eye...
