The Starlight International Hotel, nestled in the seaside city of Linhai, is a seven-star hotel sitting in the turquoise sea. In the night, this lofty hotel casts its own brilliant light.
In the private dining room of the hotel, a group of young men and women are raising their glasses in celebration, drinking merrily.
Su Weiyi is slouching on the couch, her face flushed with the glow of alcohol. She had also had her fair share of drinks, as the party was thrown in her honor.
"Come on, Weiyi! Have another drink!" Li Na, her glass of beer in hand, takes a seat next to Su Weiyi.
Su Weiyi looks up at the heavily made-up and seductive Li Na, her colleague from their previous company where they both worked as translators. Both had attempted the Nangong Group's translator's job interview, but regrettably, Li Na failed the assessment.
Su Weiyi, however, aced the Nangong Group's rigorous evaluation with the highest score, and she will officially start working there next week.
The colleagues attending today's party were all from her previous workplace.
Su Weiyi waves her hand in a slight stupor, "I'm sorry, I can't drink anymore!"
Li Na complains, "We agreed to drink until we drop. It's just one last drink. I haven't congratulated you yet. Here, take this." As she speaks, she hands the glass to Su Weiyi.
Begrudgingly, Su Weiyi accepts the drink.
"Weiyi, congratulations on passing the evaluation. All I can do is continue to linger in this broken-down company. Once you make it big, don't forget about us poor colleagues!" Li Na congratulated her, but her beautiful eyes sparkled.
"Why would that happen? We're friends no matter what!"
Li Na shows a smile, "That's good then. Come on, cheers!"
They clink their glasses together.
Without any hesitation, Su Weiyi raises the glass to her lips, tips it back, and drinks it down. Li Na, sitting next to her, watches Su Weiyi with cold, ruthless eyes, a vague, wicked smile spreading across her flaming red lips.
"Soo Yu-Yi, tonight is your night of reckoning."
Soo Yu-Yi finished his glass of wine, let out a hearty belch, and was about to say something when a sudden dizziness washed over him. A burning sensation swiftly engulfed his body.
Li Na quicky put her glass down and assisted Soo Yu-Yi, "Yu-Yi, are you alright? Did you drink too much? Let me take you to the restroom and freshen up."
Soo Yu-Yi groaned from the dizziness, then Li Na helped him up, gave a quick farewell to their colleagues, and left the private room.
The gleaming lights were reflected on the luxurious corridor, Li Na pulled out her cell phone and looked at the text message: Escort him to room 2609.
Then, she put the phone away and cast a spiteful look at the dizzy Soo Yu-Yi, thinking: I'm the only one who can enter the Nan Gong Group, not you.
Because "he" promised that as long as she got Soo Yu-Yi onto his bed, he would manipulate their results, allowing her to enter the Nan Gong Group.
Li Na helped him into the elevator, heading straight to the 26th floor. Exiting the elevator, the whole floor was quiet because the suites on this floor are top-tier luxurious, not affordable for ordinary rich people.
At the end of the corridor, golden luxury double doors. Li Na, supporting Soo Yu-Yi, moved towards the door, stealing a glance at the sign: Room 2609.
Immediately, she placed her hand on the doorknob. The door clicked open. Li Na helped Yu-Yi into the room and laid him on the bed.
"Just enjoy, Soo Yu-Yi!" Li Na barked, then left the room, closing the door behind her.
At this time, in front of the hotel, a line of black armored guard vehicles parked impressively. One of the bodyguards respectfully opened the door of a Bentley in the center, revealing a pair of shining handmade high-end leather shoes stepping out.
