After Jiang Mian finished relieving herself and washed her hands in the bathroom, she didn't see He Yubai in the hotel lobby.
Did this person leave first without waiting for me?
Because he was worried that the other person would just wait, he came out without using a hairdryer.
But now that he couldn't see anyone and his hands were still wet, he simply shook his hands as he walked toward the front desk.
"Hello, I'd like to ask if a handsome guy surnamed He has already taken his room key and left?"
The receptionist was a young woman with a round face. When she looked up and saw such a handsome young man as Jiang Mian, she couldn't help but soften her tone: "I'm really sorry, we can't disclose the guest's information."
“I’m not a bad person, nor am I here to collect debts,” Jiang Mian explained. “He’s my friend. I just went to the restroom and couldn’t find him when I came out.”
The receptionist blinked twice, thinking to herself.
Indeed, with your good looks, you're probably the kind of person who gets bullied by bad people.
Damn it! All those novels she read while slacking off at work have made her almost grow a new brain just looking at this boy in front of her!
Her mind is currently filled with indescribable thoughts!
"Since he is your friend, you can call him and ask him to come pick you up, because our hotel has a rule that we cannot disclose guests' information."
Despite her professional smile and calm demeanor, her inner turmoil was palpable.
friend?
Late at night?
Still coming to the hotel?
Is that what she thinks?
Ugh, this is infuriating! My newly grown brain isn't enough to handle it all!
"Oh right, I almost forgot my phone."
Jiang Mian thanked her, thinking to herself that the hotel was indeed quite responsible.
I searched my pockets for ages but still couldn't find my phone.
Jiang Mian's pupils widened: "Holy crap!? Where's my phone!?"
While feeling his pockets, he hurriedly ran to the restroom, but after searching around, he still found nothing.
Seeing his anxiety, the receptionist kindly reminded him, "I just saw you rush in from outside. Check if you dropped it outside."
Jiang Mian's mind went blank for a second. If she fell outside, it would be fine, but if she fell into that driver's car, she would be doomed!
After quickly thanking the other party, Jiang Mian turned around, pushed open the hotel door, and ran out.
He kept praying in his heart that he hadn't fallen off the vehicle.
These days, you can only know a person's face, not their heart. If the driver is easy to talk to and can help him send it back, he might have to give him a few hundred yuan as a reward.
If he's difficult to talk to, and his phone is simply turned off, then he probably won't be able to get it back.
Besides, it's not a fruit machine; it doesn't have a built-in GPS system. Even if you call the police to investigate, it will probably take a lot of effort.
Oh shit!
I completely forgot to check the almanac before going out tonight!
I wish I hadn't gone out!
While praying, Jiang Mian checked the path she had come from, step by step.
When he looked up, he saw He Yubai still standing not far away. Just as he was about to feel happy, he found that the tricycle driver had long since disappeared, and his mood instantly plummeted.
Oh my god!
His emotions fluctuated wildly in an instant; he's so young and already has a heart attack!
But when he looked closely, he realized that what He Yubai was holding... looked like his phone!
The next moment, my mood became ecstatic again, and as for heart disease and the like, let's put them aside for now!
"You scared me!" Jiang Mian breathed a sigh of relief. "So you found my phone."
He walked over to He Yubai and was about to reach for his phone.
But the other party tilted their hand, causing him to miss.
Jiang Mian: ?
He thought that this young master He was going to play some childish little game again, and was about to tell him to stop fooling around.
But the other person suddenly turned around, their eyes seemingly scrutinizing: "Why does this phone look so much like Jiang Wan's?"
Upon hearing this, Jiang Mian gripped his left trouser pocket tightly with his left hand, managing to suppress his shock and prevent it from showing on his face.
But my heart felt like a million alpacas were stampeding through it.
Depend on!
Could it be that He Yubai discovered it?!
I hope I won't be exposed just because of a cell phone!
etc! !
Jiang Mian suddenly came to her senses.
It's just a cell phone; I still have room to maneuver!
calm!
Stay calm!
He Yubai's tone was seven parts interrogation and three parts confusion, as if he wanted to say something more.
Jiang Mian snatched the phone from her hand: "Jiang Wan, Jiang Wan, is Jiang Wan all you can think about right now? Isn't anyone else?!"
Jiang Mian sounded very annoyed: "There are only so many phone brands, isn't it normal that I have the same model as that Jiang Wan?"
He pointed at the fruit machine in He Yubai's hand and said in a serious tone, "Does that mean you, the young master, are allowed to use the fruit machine, but no one else can?"
He Yubai was almost speechless from his barrage of words: "I was just saying it casually, why are you so angry?"
Just moments ago, they were scrutinizing me, but now they're judging me as "unreasonable" with my left eye and "troublesome" with my right.
Jiang Mian: "..."
Something unusual must be going on, he quickly told himself to calm down.
He Yubai isn't stupid; there's no need to play mind games with him. The more you avoid him, the more misunderstandings he'll cause.
Since that's the case, in order to keep his identity a secret, Jiang Mian quietly took a deep breath. He had no choice but to take a risky step!
