Yan Meng and I went to a nearby hotel together. There were quite a lot of people in the hotel.
Because of the sudden rainstorm, the hotel's business is particularly good today. Many people who were trapped nearby by the rainstorm came here to stay.
Finally it was our turn. I quickly handed the bank card I had been holding in my palm to the front desk and said simply, "Let's get two rooms, him and me."
I was quicker than Yan Meng. As soon as Yan Meng took out his wallet, my card was already in the hands of the front desk clerk.
Yan Meng paused, looked at me helplessly, and whispered teasingly, "Are you so security-conscious? Are you afraid that I'll book a room and do something bad to you?"
I took the ID card he handed over, handed it to the front desk together with mine, and then smiled politely at him.
"Even if you and I are aboveboard, there will always be people who speculate about right and wrong. The misunderstandings we've caused before are already enough. I don't want to cause any more trouble, so I should avoid suspicion."
Yan Meng snorted and complained, "I can see that you don't want to have anything to do with me at all."
Without any further explanation, I took the room card handed to me by the front desk and handed one to Yan Meng, along with his ID card.
Yan Meng stuffed the wallet back, took the room card, and went back to our respective rooms with me.
In the room, I called Mingsi, just to let her know I was safe, so that Mingsi wouldn't worry about me in such a storm.
Before we knew it, it was evening. The heavy rain outside showed no sign of stopping and the rain did not weaken.
The rain was so unsettling that it made me want to figure out what happened when I was lost.
At this time, my cell phone rang and Yan Meng called.
Yan Meng caringly reminded him, "We don't know how long it will take for the rain to stop. I'm afraid we won't be able to go back for a while. You didn't even have time to eat lunch, so you must have dinner."
Yan Meng was wrong. Not only did I not have lunch, I didn't even have breakfast. I'm really hungry now.
I asked, “What are we going to eat?”
I originally thought of calling for takeout from the hotel, but considering how heavy the rain was outside, I felt a little guilty about ordering takeout.
"This hotel has a buffet restaurant with a wide variety of dishes. We can go directly to the restaurant to eat."
I agreed without thinking, since we had no other choice anyway.
Yan Meng's and my rooms were not next to each other, and we were not even on the same floor, so we agreed to meet at the elevator entrance.
After I hung up the phone, I packed up briefly and walked to the door. Just as I opened it a crack, I was startled by a familiar voice and my hands suddenly froze.
"open!"
The deep and powerful voice belonged to Lu Zhiyuan!
He was actually in the same hotel as me.
What happened to make him so angry?
I looked through the crack in the door out of curiosity and saw Yuan Yaxin.
My grip on the door handle suddenly tightened, and hatred burst out in my eyes.
At this moment, Lu Zhiyuan had a cold face and seemed very angry.
Yuan Yaxin kept pulling his arm, begging him pitifully, "Brother Zhiyuan, please don't do this to me. We've known each other for so many years, please don't be so cruel to me, okay?"
Yuan Yaxin's eyes were red and her attitude was extremely humble.
Lu Zhiyuan's face darkened even more. Just as he was about to explode, a waiter passed by, cast a suspicious look at them, and looked them over before leaving.
