Emperor Hotel.
Inside the presidential suite, a woman's underwear was scattered haphazardly on the floor. On the king-size bed, two passionate bodies were entwined, and the room was filled with an atmosphere of ambiguity...
After the man finished, he withdrew without any hesitation, and the sound of running water came from the bathroom...
Gu Anran lay on the bed like a dead fish, almost completely drained of strength, her body feeling as if it had been run over. Trying to pull back the covers, the tearing pain made her gasp…
She gritted her teeth, endured the discomfort, put on her clothes, and then carefully stepped over the scattered crumpled papers and men's clothes on the ground before quickly leaving the room.
Gu Anran had just reached the hotel entrance when Liu Xinrou blocked her way.
"Tsk, how was it sleeping with that old man, Mr. Xu? I wonder if he's still able to satisfy you at his age?"
Liu Xinrou's sarcastic gaze fell on Gu Anran. Seeing her disheveled state, she felt a surge of smugness.
"Where's the medicine?" Gu Anran asked coldly, reaching out her hand to Liu Xinrou.
"What's the rush..." Liu Xinrou smiled mockingly, slowly took out the bag from her hand, and threw it at her feet!
Gu Anran bit her lip, wanting to say something, but in the end she bent down to pick up the bag and carefully counted the medicine in the bag, only to find that the quantity was wrong, and her face darkened.
"You said it was all of it, but what about the other half?"
"Don't worry, as long as Mr. Xu is satisfied with your performance just now, I will naturally give you the other half after the matter is completed. This is enough for your mother to have in case of emergency!"
"you……"
Gu Anran wanted to fight for it, but thinking of her mother's urgent need for the medicine and the hospital's waiting for her to bring it over, she had no choice but to suppress her dissatisfaction and turn to leave.
Liu Xinrou watched her leave in a hurry, scoffed disdainfully, smoothed her long, wavy hair, and walked into the room as if nothing had happened.
The sound of water in the bathroom stopped, and a tall figure walked out.
Liu Xinrou sat on the edge of the bed, her sexy red lips slightly parted, her sweet voice enough to make any man intoxicated.
"Now that he's yours, shouldn't you keep your promise and take my work to Paris for an exhibition?"
"Bring the design drawings with you, and someone will help you solve the problem."
Liu Xinrou slowly turned around and saw the man's face clearly.
Beneath the loose bathrobe was a man's muscular waist and perfect abs, his wheat-colored skin still damp with water, and his proportions were perfect.
The man in front of her was not the old and fat General Manager Xu.
Instead, it's Ye Lichuan, a prominent figure in City A!
Ye Lichuan controls the economic lifeline of City A. His businesses range from hotels and construction to finance and media, encompassing all sectors. He is not only incredibly wealthy but also wields immense power.
With a wave of his hand, the entire city of A will undergo earth-shattering changes.
Liu Xinrou was overjoyed. Gu Anran, Gu Anran, I never thought you would be so lucky. You actually ended up in Ye Lichuan's bed by mistake. I really have to thank you... Since you helped me get on the good side of such a high and mighty person as Young Master Ye, then from now on, he can only have me as his woman!
Thinking this, a hint of malice flashed in Liu Xinrou's eyes as she took out her phone from her bag: "Has Gu Anran arrived at the hospital?"
"Yes, Miss, we've arrived, but her mother has already died despite all efforts to save her."
“Very good. I remember that hospital is in a remote location. Maybe Gu Anran is currently grieving her mother’s death and something happened to her... and she will never come back?”
"clear."
"Also, get the design drawings back from Gu Anran. If you do a good job, you'll get your money back."
After hanging up the phone, Liu Xinrou looked at the scenery outside the window, feeling great.
Goodbye, Gu Anran.
In the hospital, Gu Anran knelt on the cold floor, looking at her lifeless mother on the hospital bed, tears blurring her vision.
"Just a little longer, just a little longer and I can bring the medicine back. Why don't you wait for me a little longer?"
Tears rolled down her hand, and Gu Anran couldn't believe that her mother had left her like this.
"Click—"
Suddenly, the light dimmed, and the sound of a door closing came from inside the room.
Gu Anran was immersed in immense grief and did not hear footsteps approaching from behind.
Suddenly, everything went dark. A white cloth was placed over her mouth and nose, and the strong smell of gunpowder made her lose consciousness before she could struggle. Her body collapsed to the ground...
