"Not checked out?"
Fang Xueqing's eyes immediately lit up, and she spoke to the cleaner.
"You're a cleaner, and you have a room key card. Could you please open the door for me?"
"Um?"
The cleaner immediately became alert, scrutinized Fang Xueqing for a few seconds, and then shook her head.
"No, I can't just open the door and let outsiders in without the guests' permission!"
"This is hotel policy, please don't make things difficult for me!"
After the cleaner finished speaking, he hurriedly walked away.
Fang Xueqing didn't stop her. She understood that if the cleaner opened the door to let outsiders into the guest room without permission, she would be severely punished.
She then had four bodyguards stand guard at the door while she went downstairs to the front desk in the lobby.
Ask the receptionist to bring the manager over.
Soon, a female manager dressed in a black Lolita business suit came up to Fang Xueqing and smiled very politely.
"Madam, is there anything I can help you with?"
Fang Xueqing nodded and said, "Could you please open the door to room 808 for me?"
Upon hearing this, the female manager immediately frowned slightly: "May I ask who you and the guest in room 808 are...?"
“She’s my friend!” Fang Xueqing replied.
"Um?"
The female manager immediately looked puzzled: "Since she's your friend, why don't you just ring the doorbell and ask her to open the door?"
"I rang the doorbell, but there was no answer!"
Fang Xueqing said calmly, "So, I'd like to trouble you to open the door and let me in!"
"That won't do!"
The female manager's expression turned serious: "There was no response when I rang the doorbell. The guest must have left a while ago!"
"So, I'm sorry, but I can't open the door for you without your permission. Please understand!"
Fang Xueqing frowned immediately. Now that she was here, she had no choice but to go in. Otherwise, if Li Min'er got away, it wouldn't be so easy to find her again!
He hesitated for a moment, then looked up at the female manager and said.
"I am Fang Xueqing, the president of Fang's Group!"
"I urgently need to speak with the guest in room 808. I hope you can make an exception!"
The female manager was immediately startled upon hearing this.
My goodness, the elegant and noble woman before me is none other than the proud daughter of heaven, Fang Xueqing.
However, she quickly calmed down.
"Oh! It's General Manager Fang."
He then shook his head slightly: "Mr. Fang, but I still can't open the door and let you in, because it's the hotel's rule. If I open the door and let you in without the guest's consent, I can't bear the consequences if the guest complains!"
Even after I revealed my identity, the female manager didn't give me any face.
Fang Xueqing was also furious. The public opinion on the internet was suffocating her. She would not leave until she found Li Min'er to resolve the issue.
Her face immediately darkened: "You're afraid the guests will blame you, but aren't you afraid I'll blame you?"
"What?"
The female manager's expression immediately changed, and she said coldly.
"Mr. Fang, are you trying to threaten me by relying on the Fang family's power?"
"Opening a guest's room door without permission to let you in is a very serious matter. I really can't take that responsibility. Please don't force me, okay?"
"That's easy!"
Fang Xueqing raised an eyebrow: "Open the door and let me in. I'll take full responsibility for whatever happens and make sure you're not implicated in anything!"
"No, it really won't work!"
The female manager still refused: "Mr. Fang, you make it sound so easy. If I help you open the door to your guest room, I'm the one who will be punished, not you."
"It's not something you can settle with just a promise!"
Seeing how stubborn she was, Fang Xueqing became ruthless, her voice turning icy.
"Fine, if you won't open it for me, I'll have my men smash it down myself. As for how serious things get, if your boss wants an explanation, he can come to the Fang Group and find me!"
"Well……"
The female manager was so frightened that her eyes almost popped out.
"What?"
"Mr. Fang, are you going to bang on the door?"
"Absolutely not! If things get out of hand, your Fang family is powerful and no one dares to mess with you, but I'll be in big trouble. Everything will be blamed on me, and I can't bear that!"
"If you can't handle it, come with me to open the door!"
Fang Xueqing said calmly, "If your superiors or boss cause you trouble afterward, just call me and I'll help you sort it out!"
"If you don't cooperate, I'll have no choice but to break down the door. You'll be responsible for the consequences!"
After saying that, without giving her a chance to think, he turned around and said as he walked away.
"Whether you come up to open the door or not is up to you. If I go up and you don't come up, I'll bang on the door!"
The female manager was terrified. If Fang Xueqing really forced her way into room 808, the higher-ups would definitely not dare to ask Fang Xueqing for justice. They would be furious with her and blame everything on her.
At this moment, she had no choice but to compromise.
He quickly chased after them.
"Mr. Fang, wait a minute, I'll go upstairs and open the door!"
A smile flickered across Fang Xueqing's lips. This method really worked; the female manager was still afraid of things escalating.
Without turning around, he replied, "Come on over!"
As they were talking, the man stepped into the elevator, and the female manager followed him in.
Upon arriving on the eighth floor, the female manager took out a room card, her face grim. She glanced at Fang Xueqing and then inserted the card.
"Alright, that's all for you. You can leave now!"
Fang Xueqing waved to her, then led four bodyguards into the room and closed the door behind her.
The guest room is a luxury suite with one bedroom and one living room.
The living room was neatly arranged and clean, and no one was there.
Fang Xueqing gave the four bodyguards a wink and quickly rushed into the bedroom.
However, the large, snow-white bed was very tidy and empty.
The person wasn't in the room!
Fang Xueqing glanced around the bedroom but didn't find any of Li Min'er's belongings.
He slowly walked out of the bedroom and into the living room, continuing to look around.
No personal belongings or luggage were found in the living room.
Even the ashtrays and trash cans were spotless, as if no one had ever lived there.
Strange, the other day when Li Min'er and Fang Chenwei made a mess of the living room and bedroom, how come it's so tidy today?
Did the cleaning staff come to clean and change the sheets and towels this morning, and then they went out to play and haven't come back yet?
But what about the luggage?
If you're going out for fun, you can't bring your luggage with you!
Could it be that the two have already left?
But that doesn't make sense. If they left, why didn't they check out?
Fang Xueqing was completely baffled.
They hadn't checked out, but their luggage and themselves were nowhere to be found.
Where did Li Min'er go?
"Look around and see if you can find anything of value!"
Fang Xueqing ordered her four bodyguards to split up and search.
He stood with his hands behind his back, pacing back and forth in the middle of the living room.
Suddenly, she glanced over and noticed a piece of white paper under a cushion on the fabric sofa.
Fang Xueqing immediately went over, picked up the cushion, and threw it aside.
It's an A4 sheet of paper.
Several black characters were clearly written on it.
"Fang Xueqing, you're here. Turn the white paper over; there are a few words for you on the back..."
