Chapter 35: One Night in Province S



On the other side, although Lu Jinghuai entered the room, his brows did not relax at all. However, Lin Yan got used to it after a few seconds of discomfort.

After all, she was not a delicate person before and had lived in the worst environments.

Although this kind of hotel has a bit of a musty smell, she checked the bedding and found everything was clean, so she could accept it.

Seeing Lu Jinghuai standing motionless in the middle of the room, she could understand.

[This must be the first time Lu Jinghuai has lived in such a poor environment, right?]

Lu Jinghuai's expression was slightly awkward.

Lin Yan didn't say anything sarcastic, she just naturally opened the curtains and opened the windows for ventilation.

Then, she turned around and said, "The air here in Daliang City is quite humid, and since no one's staying at the hotel, it's normal for it to smell a bit musty. It'll be fine after some ventilation."

Lu Jinghuai hummed and rubbed his brows. After hesitating for a while, he sat down on the sofa.

Lin Yan also took a look. She would probably have to buy a set of toiletries when she went out later. Lu Jinghuai probably wouldn't touch the ones provided by the hotel.

"Let's sit for a while. We'll go out and get something to eat before coming back."

You can tell at a glance that this kind of hotel doesn't provide any food and beverage services, it's just a place for sleeping.

Lu Jinghuai said "hmm". Since entering the hotel, Lu Jinghuai seemed to have become the backbone.

The two of them rested in the hotel for more than an hour. Lin Yan played two games, and Lu Jinghuai was also busy all the time. He made a phone call and sent two emails on the computer.

Lin Yan had no doubt that if it weren't for looking for Lu Yingqian, Lu Jinghuai would not have the time at all.

It was past six o'clock and the sky outside the window began to darken. Lu Jinghuai turned off the computer and got up.

When the door opened, the door of the bodyguard's room next door also opened.

Lu Jinghuai gave one of the bodyguards a look, and the bodyguard understood and knocked on Song Jingya's door.

When Song Jingya came out, her eyes were slightly red, and it was obvious that she couldn't adapt to the situation in the hotel. However, Lu Jinghuai didn't ask much, so Lin Yan naturally didn't say much.

A group of people went out to eat together. The hotels in this small town were so bad, so the restaurants were naturally not much better. They were just ordinary fly-infested shops.

All I can say is that I tried to find a relatively clean place to sit down and have a few simple dishes for dinner.

On the way back, Lin Yan stopped at the entrance of the supermarket and turned to look at Lu Jinghuai.

"Buy something before going back?"

Song Jingya, who had endured the whole night, could no longer bear it. "There are mosquitoes everywhere, and you still have the mood to go to the supermarket? If you want to go, go by yourself."

Lin Yan shrugged helplessly: "Okay, you don't have to go as long as you can get used to the toiletries provided by the hotel."

Lin Yan went straight into the convenience store, and Lu Jinghuai followed.

Song Jingya's expression froze, she stomped her feet and didn't follow in.

The supermarket in Daliang City is not big, only one floor, and there is really nothing to see. The two of them simply bought a set of toiletries and went back.

The musty smell in the hotel room was indeed much lighter when I opened the window to ventilate it in the afternoon, but there were obviously more problems, so I just lit the mosquito coils I had just bought.

Lin Yan went to the bathroom to take a shower first. When it was Lu Jinghuai's turn to come out of the shower, Lin Yan was standing on the bed adjusting the air conditioner.

Seeing Lu Jinghuai coming out, Lin Yan turned her head and said helplessly, "This hotel's air conditioning is really bad. It just blew hot air."

Lu Jinghuai was silent for a moment, and surprisingly didn't find it strange: "Go downstairs and ask if we can change rooms?"

The two of them went downstairs together. There was not even a light on the narrow staircase. Lin Yan walked carefully in front. She had a bit of night blindness and could not see the specific steps clearly, so she could only take one step at a time slowly.

However, no matter how careful she was, she still stepped on empty air. Her heart tightened and she had already decided to close her eyes when a pair of big hands behind her tightly grasped Lin Yan's wrist.

Lu Jinghuai's hand was extremely hot, and he withdrew his hand after Lin Yan stabilized herself.

However, somehow, Lin Yan felt that she could still feel the burning heat in Lu Jinghuai's palm.

"Be careful." Lu Jinghuai said in a low voice behind him.

After walking a few more steps, she was almost on the first floor. There was some light in front of her, and Lin Yan breathed a sigh of relief for some reason.

Lin Yan briefly told the front desk about the problem with the air conditioning in the room.

The receptionist was no longer the same staff member as when I checked in. She was replaced by a young girl.

The girl was very nice. When she found out the air conditioner was broken, she apologized and offered to change rooms. However, there were no rooms with a king-size bed available, so she could change to a room with two single beds. However, that room hadn't been occupied for a long time, so she needed to wait for the bed sheets to be changed.

Lin Yan hesitated. Their current room already had a strong musty smell, which was barely acceptable after ventilation in the afternoon. The new room had not been occupied for quite a while, so she was not sure what the environment would be like.

Lin Yan subconsciously looked at Lu Jinghuai behind her: "Our room..."

Lu Jinghuai looked at the front desk: "Is there a fan? Could you please send one over?"

Back in the room on the second floor, the girl brought a desktop fan and reopened the window.

The fan was making a creaking sound, and Lin Yan could just see the moonlight outside the window while she was lying on the bed.

Lu Jinghuai was right next to Lin Yan, and Lin Yan could feel the heat from Lu Jinghuai's body.

I should have been extremely upset, with a man with a hot breath sleeping next to me, but the faint musty smell lingered in the air, mixed with the smell of mosquito coils, and the sound of cicadas chirping outside the window.

For some reason, Lin Yan laughed.

Lu Jinghuai looked at her, without saying a word, but seemed to be asking what she was laughing at.

Lin Yan pursed her lips and explained, "As a domineering CEO, or according to normal routine, you should have made a phone call just now, and then a bunch of nannies and others would come over to help you replace all the facilities in your hotel room and install a new air conditioner."

"Am I sick?" Lu Jinghuai glanced at her calmly and said, "I'll just stay here for one night. I'll also change the bed sheets at the hotel and install an air conditioner."
