Chapter 169 Not So Many Coincidences
At this time, Li Meiwei also smiled sweetly at us, "Mr. Xiao, did you have a good rest last night? You got up late today, and Yuan Qing and I have almost finished our meal." As she said this, she winked at us ambiguously.
The way they get along is obviously different from before. The vague intimacy between them tells me that they are having an affair.
It's not surprising that a single man and a single woman are having an affair, but what's strange is that they also live in this hotel.
My intuition told me that this was not a coincidence, but how did he know which hotel we booked?
I'm pretty sure we didn't mention which hotel we booked during the chat.
As all suspense novels say, too many coincidences are no longer coincidences.
I began to recall the several chance encounters I had with him. First, we were queuing for check-in. That didn’t count, as the probability of checking in in the same queue for the same flight was very high.
Then there is the terminal, he is also in first class, so this doesn’t count.
During the chat, he first mentioned that he wanted to go to Norway to see the northern lights, and then go to Amsterdam to play for a few days. However, Xiao Shiqiu did not say that we were also going to see the northern lights, but only said that we were out on vacation.
It could be a coincidence, or he could be following us on purpose.
When passing through Moscow, we met at Red Square. This should be a coincidence. After all, we were already in Moscow, so it was normal to go to Red Square.
And now he is staying in the same hotel as us, which is a bit too coincidental.
Although Hotel 27 is a well-known local hotel, it is definitely not the only luxury hotel. It can even be said to be a relatively niche high-end hotel.
There are at least five or six hotels of the same level as this one. I can't help but suspect that he did it on purpose.
After picking up the meal, Xiao Shiqiu and I sat down in the window seats. He thoughtfully helped me pull out the chair and laid the napkin.
After we sat down, I lowered my voice and said to him, "Do you think it's a coincidence?"
He looked calm and chuckled, "How could there be so many coincidences? It's just that I haven't figured out his source of information and his purpose.
From the news I got this morning, he is indeed Lu Hongsheng's only son, but he was adopted. Lu Hongsheng was injured in his early years and lost his fertility, so he adopted Lu Yuanqing and doted on him very much.
Lu Yuanqing also worked hard. After going to Country America with his adoptive father, he excelled academically and graduated from Cornell University, an Ivy League school. After graduation, he began traveling around the world.
He paused, "The information I found shows that he went to Tromsø the winter before last."
Seeing my bewildered look, he patiently explained, "What else can you do in Tromsø in winter besides seeing the Northern Lights? The Northern Lights are something you only see once in your life; they're not good enough to warrant a repeat viewing."
Then I remembered that the original destination of our trip was Tromsø. After all the trouble, I thought we were just going to see the windmills.
"So he's seen the Aurora Borealis before, and this is his second time?"
If it's not a genuine passion, then it must be directed at us.
I felt that I needed to use my talent for reasoning to live up to the millions of suspense novel reading records.
"Does anyone else know about our hotel reservation information?" I leaned forward and asked him in a deliberately low voice.
Perhaps my excitement was too obvious, so he found it amusing and jokingly said, "If you're so interested in this kind of thing, why did you study costume design in the first place? It would have been much better to study criminal investigation."
