"Thud"
Huang Yourong still couldn't hold onto the wall and wobbled down to the ground.
Chu Ge pinched his brow and looked down at the drunken Huang Yourong, feeling utterly helpless. The person he was waiting for was Mu Lingshan, but instead of Mu Lingshan, he ended up waiting for Huang Yourong, who left a really bad impression on him at first sight.
Looking down at Huang Yourong again, she was clearly so drunk that she was unconscious, her lips moving instinctively, making indistinct, muffled sounds.
What the hell is this?
Although Chu Ge didn't know exactly what was going on, based on the current situation, he quickly ca up with a relatively reliable conclusion.
It's most likely that after he left, Mu Lingshan and Huang Yourong drank together again. Huang Yourong saw the text he sent to Mu Lingshan and then ca here. As for whether Mu Lingshan saw that text, he had no idea for now.
Chu Ge pinched his brow again, realizing now was not the ti to figure out the details of the situation. What he needed to consider first was how to deal with this drunken woman who left a terrible impression on him.
Doing sothing to her would be easy, and there wouldn't be any evidence even if she tried to get back at him later.
Moreover, since she deliberately ca here, she clearly had that intention, and the possibility of her trying to settle the score later was almost negligible. He didn't need to take any responsibility.
However, Chu Ge had no intention of doing that, not in the least.
Chu Ge was a picky person. Even though Huang Yourong's looks weren't bad, his first impression of her wasn't good at all, and now she was drunk as a skunk.
Although Chu Ge felt speechless, he couldn't just leave Huang Yourong alone. He had no choice but to get her onto the sofa in the room, find her ID card in her bag, go downstairs to the reception to get another room, move her to the bed in the newly booked room, without even taking off her clothes, and then returned to his room, turned off the lights, and went to sleep.
Thinking about this half night, it was simply ridiculous. What on earth was all this ss?
Chu Ge initially wanted to have a good chat with Mu Lingshan, listening to her stories. Now it seed Mu Lingshan wasn't coming after all.
In the darkness, looking at the ceiling, Chu Ge suddenly felt that maybe this was for the best. Isn't there a saying, "It's better to miss than to et"? Tomorrow, he had to go handle the matters he ca to the provincial capital for, and he didn't even know if he would co back alive. From this perspective, perhaps resting well and conserving his energy was the best choice.
Regarding his personal abilities, Chu Ge was quite confident, but he would never be blindly arrogant, having that ridiculous idea of being invincible in the world.
As the saying goes, there's always a higher mountain. Just like the monkey king in Journey to the West, even if he claid to be the Great Sage Equal to Heaven, he was still slapped down by Tathagata Buddha, wasn't he?
Moreover, what he would soon face wouldn't just be one person.
The next morning, Huang Yourong opened her eyes amidst a hangover headache, glancing around. Hmm? Where is this? A hotel? But why is it different from the room I stayed in before?
Wait a minute... A hotel? Different?
Right, this is not the place I stayed before; it's the West Forest Hotel. I peeked at Mu Lingshan's text and ca here to find Chu Ge!
With her blurry mind becoming clear again, Huang Yourong shot up from the bed. The sudden movent made her already aching head hurt even more, like being pricked by needles.
Nevertheless, despite this, Huang Yourong just rubbed her temples and forced herself to look around more carefully, enduring the headache. The room was quiet, with no trace of Chu Ge anywhere.
He left?
Damn it, why did I drink so much last night? I can't rember anything!
Huang Yourong punched the bed, suddenly realizing her clothes were still perfectly in place. She frowned, pulled back the covers entirely, and saw her pants were neatly worn.
This... How is this possible?
Huang Yourong's eyes wandered for a few seconds as she checked herself.
Being a woman quite experienced in these matters, Huang Yourong was very sure that she wasn't touched at all last night.
He... didn't touch ?
He... didn't touch !
How can there be such a man in the world? I was practically throwing myself at him, and he was completely unmoved?
Huang Yourong was furious. When she realized the room she was in wasn't even 306, she was even more livid.
Humiliation! Utter humiliation!
Huang Yourong took a few deep breaths, but her chest still heaved violently. This frustration was stuck in her heart, refusing to go away, and she really felt like rushing to 306 and giving Chu Ge a slap right away.
Punching the hotel bed again, Huang Yourong couldn't help but think of Chang Xin.
Even though she didn't know what happened between Chang Xin and Mu Lingshan last night, she at least got a few words out of Mu Lingshan when she was drunk, learning that Chang Xin had also been tricked by Mu Lingshan.
Slut! Mu Lingshan is a slut! Her boyfriend is a slut too!
Ha, haha...
Huang Yourong let out a slightly neurotic cold laugh. She and Chang Xin were truly in the sa boat!
Just then, a burst of phone ringing interrupted Huang Yourong's laughter. She looked at the number; it was from Chang Xin.
When Huang Yourong hung up the phone, the corners of her mouth ford a cold arc of shared enmity.
anwhile, in Room 306, Chu Ge was on the phone with Qin Ruojing, casually chatting and laughing as usual. The corners of his mouth subconsciously lifted, yet his eyes were full of warmth and gentleness.
"Alright, not talking to you anymore. I've got to go put on makeup. If you're enjoying yourself over there, stay a few more days. No need to rush back. After all, it's rare for such old friends to et up."
"Ha, what kind of wife are you? When other husbands go out, their wives are all eager for them to hurry ho. But not you, you actually wish I'd stay out longer?"
"Others are others, I am . Besides, other people's husbands are other people's husbands, you're you. How can it be the sa?"
Chu Ge grinned. Did Qin Ruojing get addicted to the tongue twister they were playing earlier?
"Alright, alright, not the sa. I said it wrong."
"What do you an by 'said'? That's just how it is. Alright, seriously not saying more. Hanging up."
"Hey, hey, aren't you going to give a kiss before hanging up?"
"Kiss your head!"
"Haha, anywhere's fine, I'm not picky."
"Tch, not kissing anywhere. If there's going to be a kiss, it'll wait till you get back. Alright, hanging up."
Listening to the "beep beep" in his ear, Chu Ge shook his head in amusent. Alright then, since Qin Ruojing said so, he'll "deal" with her properly when he gets ho.
After taking the phone away from his ear, Chu Ge dialed another number. Once so matters were thoroughly resolved, he'd return ho at ease.
Today was the day he had arranged to et Chen Zhihao.
The call connected quickly. Chu Ge and Chen Zhihao wasted no ti on small talk, going straight to the point, "I'm here."
"Haha, much earlier than I expected."
Chen Zhihao's voice was calm at first glance, yet it was filled with a chilly undertone.
"Let's skip the unnecessary words. We don't have any pleasantries to exchange. Just tell the ti and place."
"At the foot of Qilian Mountain, Liang Family Town, at your convenience."
Seeing that Chen Zhihao didn't seem to have more to say, Chu Ge chuckled lightly and hung up the phone.
At a nearby breakfast shop, he ate sothing casually, then caught a taxi and told the driver his destination - Liang Family Town. In the car, he closed his eyes to rest.
However, when he wanted so peace, the taxi driver didn't let him be. Just two minutes after starting the car, the driver asked with a peculiar expression, "Buddy, are you going to Liang Family Town to climb Qilian Mountain?"
Chu Ge opened his eyes and smiled slightly, "Ah, yes, I heard the scenery's nice there. Just going for a stroll."
"Oh, really?" The driver's tone was clearly conflicted, muttering sothing as silence fell again.
Noticing the driver's reaction, especially seeing the driver's slightly uneasy gaze through the rearview mirror, Chu Ge's interest was piqued, "Driver, what's up? Is there sothing wrong with Qilian Mountain?"
Chu Ge simply asked calmly, yet the driver's expression imdiately turned a bit nervous, "Nothing, hehe, just asking casually."
Since the driver didn't want to say more, Chu Ge closed his eyes again to pretend to nap. However, a few minutes later, the driver sighed and pulled the car over to the side.
Chu Ge opened his eyes, looking at the driver who seed torn, feeling a bit puzzled inside.
What's with this driver? Could it be a robbery attempt? Doesn't seem right? This is still the city area; if he wanted to rob soone, this would be quite an inconvenient spot?
eting Chu Ge's curious gaze, the driver chuckled awkwardly, "Hey buddy, honestly, there's sothing I really don't want to tell you, but I feel bad if I don't."
"Hmm?"
The driver bit his lip, as if making a big decision, "Buddy, hear out, it's best you don't go to either Liang Family Town or Qilian Mountain. Even though taking you there would an a decent fare, my conscience isn't at ease taking money like that."
Chu Ge smiled, "What's going on exactly? Tell more?"
The driver shook his head, "Buddy, don't ask. I doubt you'd believe anyway. Consider unlucky for taking this ride. I won't charge you, and I'll take you back to where I picked you up."
Hearing the driver say this, Chu Ge's curiosity grew. Although he could tell the driver was genuinely concerned for him, he couldn't help but show an amused yet speechless expression.
"You won't tell , and just let go back like this, what does that even an? It's totally baffling, isn't it?"
The driver's expression grew more conflicted. Of course, he knew Chu Ge's words made sense. If it were him, he'd react the sa way. But... sigh!
