Chapter 57
I don’t know if it’s because Pei Cheng is now in Country M, so his words and actions are more restrained than when he was in China.
But this is not good news for Pei Qing.
The days passed normally, and in the blink of an eye it was already the tenth.
There are three days left until that date.
Looking at Pei Cheng like this, Pei Qing even began to doubt whether he had done something wrong. Maybe he was not that hateful.
Of course, all this came to an abrupt end when Pei Cheng arrived at her workplace.
On this day, Pei Qing had just finished handing over his shift to his colleagues and was dragging his tired body back to his room.
But he saw Pei Cheng sitting on the ground at the door of his room.
Their entire floor was reserved for staff, so no guests saw this.
Seeing her return, a blonde girl said, "He was sitting at the back door of the hotel, looking like he was waiting for someone. When I went to ask him, he said he was looking for you."
Pei Qing rubbed his brows and said, "I understand. Thank you."
"It doesn't matter."
After the blonde girl left, Pei Qing dragged the man into his room.
The man at this moment looked extremely decadent, but perhaps this is not accurate.
He seemed to be immersed in his own world, unable to perceive the outside world.
Pei Qing frowned when he saw him like this, and a bad feeling came over him.
But she wasn't sure if that was true.
In Country M, gray industries also have to pay taxes, and even the official website has a guide on how to pay taxes.
□□, this kind of drug, which is strictly controlled in China, is very easy to obtain in Country M. You only need a little bit of US dollars.
Pei Qing's face was dim under the light.
The most urgent thing now is to wait for Pei Cheng to wake up. She doesn't want to make any moral criticisms of her father, but if what she thinks is true, then she has to consider it seriously.
About four hours later, Pei Cheng woke up and saw Pei Qing writing something at the table. He grinned and hugged her from behind.
Pei Qing felt a sudden chill in his body, and almost subconsciously wanted to push the person in front of him away.
"What are you doing?! Let me go--" She was shocked and angry.
However, with the same body size, a woman's strength is only 60% of a man's, not to mention that the man in front of her is her biological father.
"Hehehe...why did you, little beauty, appear in my room? Are you trying to throw yourself into my arms?"
The man's voice was disgustingly greasy, and even his hands wanted to reach out to her chest.
"Do you know who I am?" Pei Qing couldn't help but ask angrily.
If Pei Qing didn't know what was going on at this time, it would be a waste of her time to stay with Qiao Ye for so long.
I originally thought that what happened in the bar would be the last scene she would see, but now if she doesn't take any measures, then nothing can be certain.
Fortunately, there were no cameras installed in this room, and her eyes dimmed slightly.
Being forced onto the table wasn't a pleasant feeling.
So after reaching out and touching something, she threw it at the man's head without thinking.
With a "bang", the man behind him collapsed limply to the ground.
What came with it was a hand full of sticky liquid, a feeling that made her a little flustered for a moment.
Almost subconsciously, she called Qiao Ye.
The phone rang only once before someone picked it up.
"Hello?" A woman's clear voice came from the other end of the phone.
Pei Qing looked at the man who had fainted. Even though she was trying to pretend to be calm, her trembling voice revealed that she was not as calm as she appeared.
"Qiao Ye. I seem to be...in trouble."
Even his lips were trembling involuntarily.
And Qiao Ye on the other end of the phone couldn't help but put down the pen in his hand after hearing her words.
"What happened? Tell me, I'll take care of everything. Don't be afraid."
Perhaps it was Qiao Ye's words that gave her confidence, so Pei Qing's emotions gradually calmed down.
She told Qiao Ye everything that had just happened.
And the other side just said: "I know. Don't be afraid."
After saying that, he hung up the phone.
Ten minutes later, there was a knock on her door.
What followed was the "Mr. Li" whom she had only heard from her colleagues.
The young man in front of him looked to be less than 30 years old, and he became the person in charge of this hotel at such a young age.
Dawn's eyes passed lightly over the unconscious man and said to his men, "Go call the emergency number."
"yes."
Pei Qing looked at him, feeling a little awkward. "Good morning, Mr. Li."
"Good morning. I think I would have had a better morning if I hadn't been woken up by that damn phone call from Joe."
The man scoffed and turned to the secretary following behind him, saying, "Go and handle this matter. See if that Qiao has any needs and solve them together."
As soon as he finished speaking, Pei Qing stopped him, "Mr. Li, he is my father..."
"I know. Joe told me."
After dealing with these matters, Li Ming said to her, "Because of what happened today, you were frightened. I'll give you a few days off to adjust yourself."
Hearing this, Pei Qing almost subconsciously refused: "I can still..."
Before she could finish her words, the man glanced at her coldly and said, "If you want this matter to be resolved smoothly, just do as I say. Didn't Qiao also say that she will take care of everything?"
After saying that, Liming left with his men.
Pei Qing was taken away from this floor and sent directly to the top floor where she was interviewed. This is where only the senior management of the entire hotel can be.
Pei Qing's mind was blank now and he had no idea what to do.
Originally, she wanted to get rid of this scumbag here without anyone knowing, but she never expected that this scumbag was taking drugs and even wanted to touch her.
The sudden change left her at a loss as to what to do.
I could only passively follow Qiao Ye's arrangements.
It was not until this time that she realized that the gap between herself and Qiao Ye was no longer just a class difference.
This realization was like a sharp sword that left her with no escape and pierced her heart.
She could only curl up helplessly on the sofa, trying to circumvent the differences she had already realized.

When Joe arrived at the Audley Hotel, he opened the door and saw Pei Qing curled up almost into a ball.
She took out a new blanket from the office next door, covered her with it gently, and then left.
She turned and came to the office next door.
At this time, Dawn was already sitting in her seat, as if waiting for her to come.
"In order to clean up your mess, this matter is still under pressure."
Qiao also sat in front of him, legs crossed, "You don't have to press anymore."
"Hmm?" Li Ming didn't understand why she said that. "Immigration Customs has already checked her father's entry record. Are you sure you want to let this matter go?"
"Who said I was going to give it a cold shoulder?" Joe chuckled. "I didn't say I was going to give it a cold shoulder."
"So what do you want to do?"
Joe also took the calendar from his desk and circled one of the dates with a pen.
Dawn took the calendar from her and glanced at it, "Today is only the tenth... Not to mention attacking the hospital, even if they had ten thousand heads, they wouldn't be able to withstand it."
"Who said we had to attack the hospital?"
Joe also hung a map of the city on the wall. "The nearest hospital is the Eiffel Private Hospital. The unrest and some vague rumors are enough to put the blame on them."
"But that's an ideal situation. Those lunatics are all truly mentally ill."
"You said it too. They're completely psychotic, aren't they?"
Li Ming looked at the map and calendar for a long time before uttering two words: "It's unfortunate to be your enemy."
"Thank you for your kind words. Not everyone is so unlucky."
Boom, boom, boom
There was a knock on the door.
"Come in."
Jinna walked in holding a pile of information.
He reported the news from the hospital with a serious expression, "Just now, the hospital's laboratory department reported that they found a large amount of narcotics in the victim's body. The amount should be around 80 grams, and the time of ingestion was around 9 o'clock last night."
This news caused both people present to fall into a strange silence.
Li Ming even cursed: "Fuck, is this guy a fucking lunatic?"
Country M does not have very strict control over this type of drugs, so the proliferation of such drugs is common.
Even Qiao's face turned ugly.
Then, she suddenly laughed, a very cold smile, "Isn't this even better? After searching everywhere for something, I finally found it without any effort."
"What on earth are you thinking, woman?! I refuse to let your lover's father work for me. This kind of person is a bottomless pit."
"So just get rid of it directly." Qiao also said lightly.
“…”
Qiao also looked at him, "Don't you know how to borrow a knife?"
"..." Liming sat on a chair and lit a cigarette. The smell of nicotine calmed his slightly irritable mood. "I don't want this matter to cause endless trouble."
"Don't worry. I can't take it with me."
Then, Liming showed a crazy smile, "How about this. Let's make a bet, how about it?"
Seeing him like this, Qiao Ye's eyebrows couldn't help but jump, and an ominous premonition emerged in her heart, but she still subconsciously asked: "What do you want to bet?"
"Let's bet... on who can handle this perfectly."
Qiao also looked at him silently, but the smile on her lips grew bigger and bigger. Such an exaggerated smile made Dawn a little confused about what she meant for a moment.
"Hahahahaha...hahahaha...okay, okay," Qiao also laughed, even trying not to hold back her tears. "Interesting! I'll take this bet."
A bad feeling came over Liming's heart, and for a moment he didn't know whether her words were sincere or false.
"So what's our bet?" he asked.
"How about we bet on that piece of land in the south of the city?" Qiao also raised his eyebrows.
Li Ming had never expected this bet. After all, both of them were eyeing that piece of land, but it was still a surprise that she brought it up now.
"Since you've said so, why should I not agree?"
Neither of them noticed that Pei Qing had been standing outside the office for an unknown amount of time.
When she heard the people inside preparing to go out, she returned to where she was supposed to be.
