"We can't find a decent hotel, so let's just make do here for the night." Without asking Mo Huaixing's opinion, Fang Heng got out of the car and walked towards the hotel reception.
“Two people, one room.” Fang Heng took out his work ID and said, “Neither of them has their ID cards with them.”
Mo Huaixing carried Gan Tang to Fang Heng's side and corrected him, "Two rooms."
"Two rooms it is. I have to rush back to work overtime, so I can't stay with you." Fang Heng put away his work ID and left. When he reached the door, he turned back and emphasized, "A decent person who wants two rooms, don't blame me for not warning you. She might have a fever."
"You..." Mo Huaixing wanted to say that he should keep an eye on Pang Lou's life, but then he realized that he was only helping with the capture and wouldn't be able to deliver the person to him, so he changed his words to "...give me some money."
The two kidnapped people had nothing on them.
"Remember to give it back to me." Fang Heng took out his wallet, took out his bank cards and ID, stuffed the wallet into his pocket, and then stuffed his phone in as well, saying with disdain, "You don't have a phone either, take it. How did you end up being tied up? Aren't you ashamed?"
"It's not suitable, take it away." Anyway, she had already let Lu Zhengqian know she was safe. He was also very tired and just wanted to rest with her. He didn't want to deal with any more troubles.
"Take it or leave it." Fang Heng put away his phone and left.
The receptionist looked at the disheveled handsome man in front of her, then at the girl in his arms, and asked again, "How many rooms do you need?"
Mo Huaixing opened his mouth and asked, "Do you have suites?"
The receptionist laughed and said, "This isn't a five-star hotel; we don't have rooms that luxurious."
"Then let's keep two rooms."
Mo Huaixing took the room key and carried Gan Tang into the room.
She was asleep. He didn't turn on the main light, but gently placed her on the bed. By the dim light of the bedside lamp, he looked at the injuries on her body. Her wrists had been bound for a day, and after countless struggles, the wounds were deep, and the white bone was vaguely visible.
"Silly girl, didn't I tell you not to go out? How come something still happened?"
Mo Huaixing covered her with the blanket, then got up and left.
Gan Tang wasn't sure if she was asleep or not. If she wasn't asleep, she was in a daze; if she was asleep, she could hear him talking.
Seeing that he was about to leave, she instinctively grabbed his hand.
"Don't go."
As soon as she spoke, she seemed about to cry again, her eyes brimming with tears.
Mo Huaixing was afraid of startling her, so he whispered and coaxed, "I'll go buy some medicine and be right back."
"I'll go with you," Gan Tang said, still holding on tightly.
Just then, there was a knock on the door, and Gan Tang hurriedly hid in Mo Huaixing's arms.
"It's alright, it's alright!" Mo Huaixing reassured him softly, then called out towards the door, "Who is it?"
"It's me!" It was Fang Heng's voice. "I bought you some medicine and food."
Worried about the inconvenience, he didn't wait for Mo Huaixing to open the door and simply placed it there. Even for those few steps, Gan Tang wouldn't let go of him, clinging to him like a pendant as she accompanied him to the door to retrieve his things.
When I came back, I turned on the light.
Fang Heng bought quite a lot of medicine, including wound medicine, cold medicine, anti-inflammatory medicine, and even glucose. He ate wontons. The surrounding area was deserted, and it was late at night; it's unclear where he bought them.
Mo Huaixing asked, "Should we eat first or apply the medicine first?"
Although she had been hungry all day, Gan Tang really couldn't eat and shook her head, "I don't want to eat."
"Shall we drink some hot water first?" Mo Huaixing asked softly.
Gan Tang nodded.
Mo Huaixing poured half a cup of hot water, and seeing that her face was terribly pale, he added half a cup of glucose.
Gan Tang leaned against the headboard, holding a glass of water in her hands. The steam from the glass warmed her face, giving her pale cheeks a touch of color. She lowered her head and took a sip, gradually regaining some of her ability to think.
His face turned pale in an instant.
Mo Huaixing placed the medicine on the bed and then brought a hot towel to wipe the dirt off her wrist. The wound was not only covered in bloodstains, but also with dirt and gravel embedded deep within it.
He looked at it, frowning with concern: "Why is it so dirty?"
Upon hearing this, Gan Tang visibly trembled, staring blankly at him as if seeking his opinion, and asked very cautiously, "Can I go take a shower first?"
Mo Huaixing was a little at a loss. "Then I'll go back to my room first, and I'll come back to apply the medicine after you've finished washing."
With that, he hurriedly got up and left.
As Gan Tang watched his retreating figure, she pounced on him like a madwoman, hugging him tightly and pressing herself against his back.
"Mo Huaixing, I lied to that kidnapper today. I didn't mean to do that kind of thing with him. I just wanted to trick him into letting go of my hand. I'd rather die than let him touch me. Really, you have to believe me. Please, please don't look down on me."
Mo Huaixing turned around in surprise and saw a girl with tears streaming down her face. On the way back, he kept feeling the girl in his arms trembling. He thought she was frightened, but he never expected it was for such an absurd reason.
Why would you think that?
Gan Tang buried herself deeply in his arms, still pleading frantically: "I know I was wrong before, and I'm changing. Can you please stop thinking about me like that? I don't want you to think of me as a shameless woman who sleeps with anyone."
“You did nothing wrong.” Mo Huaixing hugged her and gently ruffled her hair. “Even if something really happened, you wouldn’t have done anything wrong.”
"It won't happen." Gan Tang shook her head frantically.
"Okay, okay, it won't happen." Mo Huaixing didn't dare to say anything more to upset her, he just held her tightly.
Gan Tang gradually calmed down and raised her head slightly: "I feel unwell, I want to take a shower."
Seeing that her pale little hand was still clutching his clothes, Mo Huaixing tentatively said, "Then I'll stand guard at the door."
Gan Tang frowned.
Mo Huaixing hurriedly added, "At the bathroom door."
This was his bottom line; he couldn't very well say that he, a grown man, was taking a bath with her.
Gan Tang nodded gently.
The bathroom in the hotel room had frosted glass. It was just like that time on the cruise ship, when she took a shower in his room, the same sound of running water, but his heart couldn't be as calm as it had been before.
It turns out that she had always been in his heart, and he couldn't forget her no matter what he tried.
The damp wooden door creaked open, and Gan Tang stood in the bathroom doorway, looking at Mo Huaixing sitting on the sofa. She was only wrapped in a white bath towel, revealing her fair and alluring shoulders and neck.
Mo Huaixing hurriedly looked away.
Gan Tang, clutching the bath towel, hurriedly explained, "I didn't mean to dress like this. I don't have any clothes."
Now, she was very careful with every movement, worried that it would invite his contempt and disgust. Mo Huaixing got up, strode over, and pulled the girl, who was lost in thought, into the quilt.
"Boss, I'm not exactly a gentleman who can resist temptation. Besides, you're so beautiful." He spoke his mind, half-jokingly and half-seriously, explaining his earlier behavior.
