——Soon, shattered into pieces.
The event happened so suddenly, Tang Yan Yi was caught off guard. She reached out to her chest, gasping for air, looking around.
Her face felt like it was being pierced by thousands of needles, and her hair stood on end in shock.
Her gaze spun around suspiciously, and she called out coldly: "Who? Co out!"
.
The house door silently opened, followed by the quiet click of the lock.
Tang Yan Yi looked over in panic——
Only to see a tall man standing indifferently at the door, his gaze lifted, resting on her face, without the slightest surprise, his expression and eyes always cold and clear, as if her uninvited arrival was not unexpected to him at all.
The situation had reached this point, pretending further was of no use.
Tang Yan Yi took a deep breath: "George, since you knew ahead that I was coming to investigate you, you could have sat in the room waiting for . When I opened the door, seeing you sitting in the room, I would be just as embarrassed. Why bother with such ghostly tricks?!"
George stared at her silently: "From inexplicably holding a coffee and heading straight towards in the hotel lobby, to clumsily pretending to fall, then hooking Li Le Wen, all while knowing he spent a fortune to treat you to tonight’s lavish dinner... you went through all this trouble just to get into my room and obtain my DNA."
"Ti-consuming and labor-intensive, but it seems you enjoy it. So, have you had enough fun?"
.
Being caught red-handed, Tang Yan Yi felt deeply ashad.
She truly embarrassed Dad and the Tang Family.
In her heart surfaced Huangfu Huazhang’s words that deeply wounded her, saying she possessed none of the Tang Family’s deanor...
Her fingertips clenched tight on the chair behind her, suppressing her internal panic, she raised her head high to face George.
"And what about you? Even though you had seen through my tricks long ago, you still patiently played along with till now. Your actions were also ti-consuming and labor-intensive. So I must ask you the sa question: Have you had enough fun?"
George raised his eyebrows high, a layer of surprise surged on his face that looked so like Huangfu Huazhang.
"You’re very brave and quite clever, such won are indeed interesting."
He finished speaking and leisurely walked towards the table, Tang Yan Yi hurriedly scanned her surroundings, readying an escape route should he try to grab her.
George walked slowly and elegantly, his eyes slightly lifted, calmly taking in all of her expressions.
Just four or five steps away, already reaching the critical line where Tang Yan Yi must make a decision.
George suddenly halted, his long fingers brushed over the expensive diamond cufflinks, smirking arrogantly.
"Don’t bother trying to escape; I have already activated the ergency mode on the door lock. It ans only my fingerprints can open the door, no one else’s. Li Le Wen’s fingerprints won’t be able to assist you anymore."
He said, suddenly curling his lips, as if finding sothing amusing.
He smoothed his cufflinks, glancing back at his room: "This room to you is a secret chamber. Using the presidential suite as the location for a secret room escape, it’s quite a classic layout. So, interested in playing?"
Tang Yan Yi sneered coldly: "Mr. George, you underestimate ."
She spoke, raising her phone, "I have already set the ergency call. Now, by pressing the shortcut key, even if the police can’t hear my voice, they will receive my pre-stored distress ssage. The ergency response speed of the Shanghai police is astonishingly quick... Would you like to test it?"
Tang Yanqing spoke, squinting her eyes pridefully: "You say this is a secret chamber, aning illegal detention, though my intrusion into your room was wrong first. However, I naturally have ways to defend myself; compared to my wrongdoing, your charge of illegal detention is undeniably far more severe."
She is an officer, albeit an officer from M Country, returning to China rely for root-seeking, but as an officer, once she finds the person she wants to track in foreign lands, no one can resist seizing this opportunity. So as long as she identifies herself to the Chinese police and explains her motives, she believes that the equally officer-status Chinese police would understand her sentints.
Even if she was wrong, it wouldn’t result in any major trouble.
Furthermore... she is Tang Mingxiang’s daughter. Tang Mingxiang, being M Country’s first state-level police chief, was once unanimously respected by Chinese police colleagues. Tang Mingxiang had visited China with his subordinates, achieving joyful interaction between the two sides. Therefore, she believes the Chinese police would surely take into account her father and wouldn’t treat her harshly.
