"Madam, you've misunderstood. I didn't mean to look down on you..."
With a loud slap, Su Mu directly slapped the little girl across the face.
"Isn't this looking down on me? So what if she rents out the whole place? If she can afford it, why can't I?"
Not to mention the little girl who was beaten, even Zhou Chunhua and Li Anran were stunned.
Realizing what was happening, Li Anran quickly went over and pulled Su Mu over.
"Mumu, what are you doing?"
As soon as Li Anran spoke, Su Mu's eyes reddened.
"I'm sorry, I didn't yell at you, I just raised my voice a little. Don't cry, Mumu, I'm sorry." Li Anran was at a loss and didn't know what to do.
"An Ran, am I really that easy to bully? Can anyone really bully me?"
As soon as Su Mu said this, Zhou Chunhua looked at the little girl who had been beaten in disbelief.
The person who got slapped didn't complain, but the one who hit her is now complaining.
If she hadn't seen it with her own eyes, she would have thought that Su Mu was the one who got beaten up.
Looking at Li Anran again, she was now humbly admitting her mistakes to Su Mu.
"Mumu, please don't cry, okay? Here's what I'll do: I'll take you to a better hotel than this one."
Li Anran gently coaxed Su Mu, then took his hand and started to leave.
Su Mu suddenly shook off Li Anran's hand, turned around and questioned, "How much did she pay to book this place? I'll pay double the price, and you'll have them leave!"
"Mumu!"
Before the receptionist could react, Li Anran was already anxious.
He rushed over, grabbed Su Mu, and coaxed, "Sweetie, everything has to be done in a first-come, first-served manner. They booked the place first."
"Exactly! Besides, do you think Yuelai is some roadside stall? A place that anyone can just rent out?" the little girl shouted resentfully.
Su Mu reacted like a cat whose tail had been stepped on, and his whole body exploded.
"An Ran, did you hear that? Isn't this bullying?"
"I bullied you? Ha! That's hilarious! You were the one who insulted me! You were the one who hit me! And now you're acting all wronged!"
Su Mu didn't argue with the young woman at the front desk. Instead, she turned to Li Anran and said in a tearful voice, "Anran! Didn't you say you would protect me and make sure I would never suffer any injustice in my life?"
"Yes! I did say that..."
"How can you just stand by and watch her bully me? How about we book this whole place? Let her know I'm not someone to be trifled with."
Zhou Chunhua stood there, watching Su Mu perform.
Honestly, she couldn't understand how a person could switch between two faces so easily!
When Su Mu looked at the young girl, his disdain and contempt practically seeped out from every pore.
But when she turned to talk to Li Anran, she was like a wronged little rabbit, crying so hard it broke your heart.
Li Anran's expression became uneasy.
"Um... Mumu, I'm currently..." Li Anran hesitated, as if she had something difficult to say, and then said, "I'm currently broke."
"What? An Ran, what are you saying?" Su Mu exclaimed.
As if she had made a decision, Li Anran gritted her teeth and shouted, "Mumu, I have no money! I'm a penniless pauper now!"
"No! Anran, how could you possibly be broke?"
At this moment, Su Mu's attention was clearly no longer on the young receptionist.
She gripped Li Anran's hand, her knuckles turning blue with nervousness.
Li Anran took a deep breath, withdrew her hand, and supported Su Mu's shoulder.
"Mumu, I really have no money left."
"No! Impossible! How could such a big company suddenly run out of money?" Mainly, she hadn't heard any news about Li Anran's company going bankrupt.
Besides, even a starved camel is bigger than a horse!
Even if Li Anran's company is facing a crisis, surely Li Anran can't have no property or savings after all these years!
"The company is gone, and so is the money. But don't worry. I promised you I would give you a comfortable life. I will definitely keep my word!"
"No! Anran, what exactly happened?" Su Mu still refused to believe it.
Li Anran is definitely testing her!
That's right! That must be it!
The heart that had been hanging in suspense finally settled gently at this moment.
She turned to look at Zhou Chunhua, and gritted her teeth in resentment.
Then he turned to Li Anran and said, "Yes! No matter what happens to you in the future, I will never leave you. I... I was confused just now and caused you trouble again."
As Su Mu spoke, he lowered his head.
Li Anran looked distressed, but her eyes were full of relief.
He knew that his Su Mu was not the kind of woman who worshipped money.
"Mumu, I'll take you to eat something delicious in a little while. Wait for me."
Su Mu nodded obediently.
Li Anran then let go of Su Mu's hand and walked to the young girl at the front desk.
"I'm sorry, are you badly injured? Do you need to go to the hospital?"
The girl, who was still fuming, glanced at Su Mu not far away, and then at Li Anran in front of her.
After a long while, he shook his head.
Li Anran ran to the front desk to get paper and pen, buried her head in thought for a while, and then returned.
"This is my contact information. If you need to go to the hospital, you can call me directly. Don't worry, we will not shirk our responsibilities."
The little girl took the paper and stood there stunned.
Li Anran then turned around and joined Su Mu, taking his hand affectionately before leaving.
The little girl, as if just remembering her, stuffed the paper into her pocket and led her onward.
After turning a corner, you'll find yourself in a Chinese-style corridor.
Looking up, you can see the carved ceiling, and on both sides are Chinese-style decorations and beautiful ink paintings.
The balloons, however, seem out of place no matter how you look at them.
Zhou Chunhua couldn't help but look at the little girl next to her.
However, since the little girl didn't say anything, she was too embarrassed to ask and continued walking forward.
Only then did Zhou Chunhua notice that two large doors were open not far ahead.
But what's with the rose archway in front of the door?
She couldn't help but wonder... Could it be... that the mix-and-match style is in fashion now?
Interestingly, the closer you get to the door, the stronger the scent of roses becomes.
Zhou Chunhua sniffed and chuckled softly, "The flowers smell wonderful, and your place is quite unique."
"You've misunderstood," the little girl said with a smile. "These balloons, and the flower arch in front, were all specially decorated for you."
"For me?" Zhou Chunhua unconsciously stopped in her tracks.
“Yes.” The young girl bowed slightly. “These were all arranged by Mr. Lu.”
Just as the words were spoken, a clear and melodious piano sound suddenly came from in front.
Lu Ming also suddenly appeared, walking through the flower archway towards her.
Moreover, he was dressed in a suit and tie and was holding a bouquet of roses in his hand!
