What just happened inside?
Looking at the bruises on the girl's hands, the lobby manager glanced at them without saying anything, then looked up and asked the woman in front of him.
“Five people broke in this morning, saying they wanted to take the people out of the room. There was a verbal argument, and then they started fighting. The two of us managed to escape in the chaos.”
The two men were also in tears as they spoke. They had been staying with Engineer Liu for the past two days, constantly asking them to keep him company, and they had long since reached their breaking point.
"Okay, I understand."
After checking the room's layout and glancing at the two people, he turned to leave.
"Manager, could we please not go?"
"Is it okay if I work as a manager?"
Just as the lobby manager was about to leave, the girl who had spoken earlier called out to him and asked him in a pleading tone.
"I'll make the arrangements."
In fact, the lobby manager didn't want to deal with this at all. He wasn't in charge of this kind of thing. He was the one who interacted with the customers first, and he guessed that the two women were asking him for help because he wanted him to talk to the customers so that they could be freed. Without looking back at the two women, he just nodded, said something, and left.
"Manager, the people who went into VIP1 just came out, and they were carrying one on their shoulders."
As the manager stood at the elevator door, his walkie-talkie rang again, and the person on the other end reported what had happened to the lobby manager.
"I see!"
After listening to the news from the surveillance camera, he knew that the person being carried was Engineer Liu. Suddenly remembering something, he quickly pressed the elevator button and went to VIP1 on the third floor.
"It's over, it's over, all my savings are gone."
Upon arriving at the VIP1 lobby, the manager, seeing the room completely destroyed, collapsed to the floor, clutching his head in despair, and said, "This enormous loss is something I'll have to bear myself."
Sending a mere manager like him to ask Engineer Liu for money is tantamount to courting death. That's someone even their own boss can't afford to offend. They were about to use the walkie-talkie to have the security guard at the gate stop him, but after thinking about it, they decided against it.
"Ah Fei, come to my office!"
Just as the manager was heartbroken, his walkie-talkie rang again. This time, it wasn't the voice from the monitoring room, but a very familiar voice.
"Yes, boss!"
Knowing immediately who it was, Afei quickly stood up, picked up the walkie-talkie, and answered.
The hotel owner usually doesn't show up, but if he does, it means something big has happened. Ah Fei didn't expect that such a small matter would alarm the owner, so he hurriedly walked towards the elevator.
The boss has a rule that he doesn't like people who procrastinate. There was a time when someone was fired because he didn't go to the boss's office immediately when the boss called him. But being fired wasn't a big deal.
But the next day, everyone in the hotel heard that the person who had been fired had been beaten up and was hospitalized. Although the boss didn't say anything, everyone in the hotel knew the truth, but no one said it aloud.
From then on, the boss became the absolute authority in the hotel.
Knock knock knock!
Soon, Afei arrived at the boss's office door, which could only be opened from the inside.
clatter!
As soon as he knocked, the door lock clicked. Then the door opened, and what came into Afei's view was a beautiful woman with delicate features standing in front of him.
Ah Fei had seen countless women, but the one in front of him was like a celestial being descended to earth. Although she was beautiful, Ah Fei knew that she was unattainable for him, so he quickly lowered his head and walked in.
The beautiful woman who opened the door closed it and walked to a screen.
"Afei, has Engineer Liu left?"
Then, a man's voice came from behind the screen, asking Ah Fei who had just arrived.
"They're gone. It seems his brother sent someone to take them away. I don't know what happened. Engineer Liu was carried away."
Ah Fei didn't dare to look up in the direction of the voice, and continued to report to his boss with his head down.
"How much money did you receive from Engineer Liu?"
After listening to Afei's words, the person behind the screen pressed Afei for more information.
"Boss, I didn't, I didn't take his money."
Upon hearing this, Afei was so frightened that he immediately knelt on the ground, his head hitting the ground directly, and hurriedly explained to the boss.
The hotel has explicit rules prohibiting guests from accepting tips or engaging in excessive social interaction.
But Ah Fei thought to himself, when Engineer Liu gave him the money, there was no one around, so how could the boss possibly know? Hoping to get away with it, he refused to admit it no matter what, and the boss would have no way to get away with it.
"Even at a time like this, you still won't tell me the truth! Take a good look at this."
When Afei denied it, the boss handed a photo to the beautiful woman and spoke to Afei in a low voice.
"Well, boss, it was all Liu's fault. He insisted that I find those two girls, and if I didn't agree, he threatened to kill me. I had no other choice!"
Looking at the photo that had been handed over, which clearly showed the moment he received the money from Liu Gong, Afei, who was hoping to get away with it, quickly said to the boss.
"You've done my part, even if you haven't done anything particularly meritorious. If you had admitted it just now, I wouldn't have said anything, but you lied to me, so you don't need to come here anymore!"
When the boss said the first sentence, Afei felt half relieved, but when he heard what the boss said next, he collapsed to the ground as if he had no bones left.
"You good-for-nothing, Xiaoyu!"
After seeing Ah Fei's hopeless state, the boss began to doubt his judgment in hiring people. Looking at Ah Fei's useless appearance, he became furious and said to the woman standing in front of Ah Fei.
