Chapter 143 Here's your room key
Xu Songning was still comforting Yun Ge, who was being targeted for no reason, when he saw Qin You walking over with an unfriendly expression. He thought to himself: Hasn't Qiao Qiao managed to subdue him yet?
Xiang Yun shielded her behind him, preventing Qin You from getting close.
"I have something to give her." Qin You held the room key in his hand.
Xu Songning felt dizzy. Why give her a room card now? How was she going to explain her request for the universal room card?! She desperately tried to signal to Zhou Qiao, but Zhou Qiao had abandoned their years of tacit understanding and even gave her a question mark with her eyes.
"?"
"I don't need it anymore, you can take it." Xu Songning, disheveled in the wind, gritted her teeth and said to Zhou Qiao, "Qiaoqiao, can you take your Qin You away first?!"
“He’s not from my family!” Zhou Qiao argued.
"Didn't you want this?" Qin You held up the room key.
In an instant, the world fell silent.
Zhou Qiao finally understood what her friend meant by winking. Xu Songning pretended to be calm, took the card, and said with surprising composure, "Yes, it's me."
The thin card was snatched away quickly, but Xiang Yun's good eyesight allowed him to see what kind of card it was.
Hotel room key.
The atmosphere was eerily silent.
"What are you doing with the room key?" Xiang Yun asked her.
Xu Songning's mind worked quickly. Using her mental capacity to command more than a dozen aircraft per minute, she came up with a reasonable excuse.
"Qiaoqiao said that the cleaning lady would come in the afternoon, and asked me to open all the windows in the room to let in some fresh air."
"Right, Jojo?"
“Yes…yes! Captain Xiang, I apologize to you on his behalf. He hit his head yesterday and was talking nonsense. Please don’t blame him.” Zhou Qiao chimed in, giving Qin You a reproachful look.
Qin You said in a deep voice, "I don't need your help. I'll apologize myself."
"You...who wants to help you? Then apologize yourself, and be sincere." Zhou Qiao rolled her eyes. This person really couldn't tell right from wrong.
"Captain Xiang, I'm sorry, this was indeed my fault." Qin You extended his hand.
"Xiang Yun." Xiang Yun grasped his hand without holding a grudge.
Qin You used a little force, "Qin You."
Xiang Yun ignored the subtle pressure he was exerting on his hand and asked, "Lead singer of the band?"
Xiang Yun knew that Qin You was one of Zhou Qiao's ex-boyfriends, but he hadn't specifically looked up what Qin You looked like. Now that he had met him in person, he was surprised to find that the lead singer of his sister's favorite band was actually quite good-looking, though his character was questionable.
"What? Captain Xiang knows me?"
Qin You emphasized the words "Captain Xiang," making Xu Songning want to punch him. Seriously?! Qiao Qiao just called him Captain Xiang once, and he remembered it?
"My sister likes your band, can I get an autograph?"
The tense atmosphere vanished instantly. Qin You repeated the question strangely, then immediately released his grip. "An autograph? Your sister is a fan of our band?"
"To be precise, they are your fans."
"……OK."
Xiang Yun patted his pockets. He had forgotten that he had traveled light today and hadn't brought any notebooks or notes. He smiled apologetically, "I didn't bring anything to sign. Maybe next time."
"No need for next time." Qin You strode into Zhou Qiao's room, took out a small, hard-covered A5-sized notebook, and, with a pen cap in his mouth, casually signed the title page.
"What's your sister's name?" Qin You asked, his mouth full of pen cap.
Xiang Yun typed Cui Yuyue's name on his phone and showed it to him.
Qin You quickly signed his name and handed the notebook to Xiang Yun, saying, "As an apology."
"Thank you." Xiang Yun took the notebook and said with a smile, "You have a strong grip."
Qin You: "?"
You've already apologized, are you going to file a complaint now?
As expected, Zhou Qiao immediately grabbed his clothes and dragged him back a few steps. How could such a big man be easily dragged by a woman? But he was willing to be "led" by Zhou Qiao.
"Stop causing trouble! Let's go, let's go!" Zhou Qiao urged him.
Qin You didn't leave because he knew that he had room to maneuver when there were outsiders around. If it were just Xu Songning alone, Zhou Qiao would definitely kick him downstairs.
"Where to? I haven't applied the medicine yet."
"Go back to my place!" Zhou Qiao gritted her teeth.
Having succeeded in his scheme, Qin You became obedient and followed Zhou Qiao inside. After entering the room, he hooked his foot and slammed the door shut.
As soon as the two left, the corridor immediately became quiet.
The farce has finally come to a satisfactory end.
Looking at the mess on the ground, Xu Songning silently shed tears in her heart. This was so different from what she had expected!
"Weren't you supposed to open the hotel door? What are you standing there for?" Xiang Yun snapped his fingers to bring Xu Songning back to his senses.
Xu Songning looked at the room key in his hand. Well, how could this not be considered a roundabout way of achieving his goal?
"Walk."
Xu Songning swiped the first door, and the furnishings inside were indeed the same as what Xiang Yun had seen online, basically adopting the style of a hotel.
The second room, the third room...
Xiang Yun's gaze followed Xu Songning's movements closely. She calmly and confidently swiped the cards to open each room, without showing any unusual expression.
As Xiang Yun scrolled through the fifth room, he became nervous. The room where they had once spent a passionate night was right in front of him, and his feelings for Xu Songning became even more complicated.
Xu Songning entered the room first, and sure enough, the room had been restored to the same layout as the other rooms.
Without giving anything away, she calmly walked to the window and opened it.
Xiang Yun's mind was replaying the details of that night like a movie.
Clothes scattered at the doorway, a half-drawn white curtain, letting in soft moonlight.
Lily hooked her fingers and easily tore off his tie, leaving a trail of lingering kisses on her hot lips that sent shivers down his spine.
He thought that after several months, he would no longer remember these details, but as soon as he entered the door, he remembered them all.
Facing Xu Songning's retreating figure, he suddenly felt uneasy and somewhat annoyed by his self-indulgence that night.
Xu Songning's behavior was too normal; he didn't try to hide it at all. Instead, it exposed his dark thoughts, making people ashamed.
"What are you daydreaming about?" Xu Songning leaned against the window, her hands on the windowsill, smiling as she looked at him.
The afterglow of the setting sun shone from behind her, making every strand of her hair gleam. Her hazy shadow almost overlapped with the Lily he remembered.
But he also knew that this might just be his own imagination. He desperately wanted Xu Songning and Lili to be the same person, so that he wouldn't have to avoid this feeling anymore and could accept her flirting openly.
The evidence was still insufficient; something was stirring in his mind, but he couldn't grasp a single trace of it.
"The sunset is beautiful."
The same to you.
Xu Songning looked back out the window, feeling quite pleased. Now that she had brought him here, he shouldn't doubt her anymore, right? If she proved that she and Lu Xiaomeng didn't have a fixed room here, he wouldn't be able to confirm that Lily was her.
Even if he had any doubts, Xu Songning had already broadened the scope for him so much that it would take forever for him to guess.
However, judging from his absent-minded look just now, he was probably just thinking about the night he spent with Lily here.
She pondered her feelings and realized, "Oh no, why am I a little jealous of myself?"
