Wang Hu stared expressionlessly at the clock on the wall, the hands relentlessly pointing to 1:30 a.m., as if time had frozen at that moment.
He had been in this small room for almost two hours, and those two hours felt like an eternity to him.
The room was dimly lit, making Wang Hu's figure appear somewhat blurry on the wall. Suddenly, the door was pushed open, and someone walked in.
Wang Hu narrowed his eyes slightly, watching the newcomer, but the corners of his mouth involuntarily curled up as he recalled the amusing story he had just heard.
Just moments ago, Deputy Chief Kuntai of the police station, who wore gold-rimmed glasses and appeared refined and even somewhat gentle, suddenly had a very grim expression. He angrily roared at his subordinates, "Release Wang Hu now!"
The subordinate was clearly puzzled by the order and asked in confusion, "Why?"
Kuntai's anger intensified. He widened his eyes and raised his voice eight octaves: "There's no reason why!"
In truth, Kuntai's plan had already fallen through. Originally, he intended to use Wang Hu as a front for murder, then make him his puppet. However, events unfolded in a way that completely exceeded his expectations.
Luo Zhan used his previous connections to contact some people in the Thai military, while at the same time, the embassy was also making efforts in secret.
Therefore, Kuntai had no choice but to compromise and release Wang Hu.
Wang Hu had overheard Kun Tai's entire scheme. As he walked out of the police station, he glanced back at a window on the third floor.
On the way back, Wang Hu pondered to himself that the person who had revealed his exact address to Scarface was most likely Kuntai. Moreover, he deduced that Kuntai was probably the protector of this fraud ring in Thailand.
When Wang Hu finally returned to the hotel, Fan Xiaopang rushed over like a whirlwind, hugged him tightly, and burst into tears.
Seeing this, Wang Hu gently patted Fan Xiaopang's back and softly comforted him, "Alright, alright, don't cry, I'm back safe and sound!"
Those standing behind Fan Xiaopang all gazed at Wang Hu with respect and admiration, as if he were a hero. However, Tao Hong was different; her eyes held more of a longing, as if she wished she were the one being tightly embraced by Wang Hu at that moment.
Wang Hu, holding Fan Xiaopang in his arms, turned to Bald Xu and said, "Director Xu, I'm so sorry, this matter has caused you so much trouble!"
Bald Xu assumed these people were there to kidnap celebrities like them. When he heard Wang Hu's words, he quickly replied, "Mr. Wang, please don't say that! We should thank you! If you hadn't stopped them in time, the consequences would have been unimaginable!"
Seeing that the other party had misunderstood, Wang Hu decided not to waste any more words explaining and turned to the bald Xu, saying, "I'll take Bingbing back to her room first. You guys should get some rest too!"
After saying that, Wang Hu helped Bingbing turn around and leave, leaving behind a receding figure.
Watching Wang Hu's figure gradually disappear into the distance, Tao Hong couldn't help but feel a little annoyed. She pouted and muttered to herself, "That bastard! He made me worry about him for so long, and he didn't even say a word!"
Xu, the bald man standing nearby, noticed the change in Tao Hong's expression and asked with concern, "Tao Hong, what's wrong? Are you feeling unwell?"
Tao Hong quickly covered it up, saying, "Oh, it's nothing, I'm just a little tired. Your snoring is too loud last night, I'll sleep in Nan Nan's room tonight."
Before she finished speaking, Tao Hong clung tightly to Xie Nan's arm like a sloth and walked towards Nan Nan's room without looking back, leaving Bald Xu and the others looking at each other in bewilderment.
Seeing this, Bald Xu waved his hand helplessly and said to everyone, "Alright, it's nothing, go and rest, we have to film tomorrow!"
After everyone left, Tao Hong and Xie Nan returned to their room. As soon as they entered, Xie Nan sensed an unusual atmosphere. Tao Hong narrowed her eyes, a dangerous glint in them.
Xie Nan felt a little uneasy and asked cautiously, "Sister Tao Hong, what... what are you going to do?"
Peach-colored lips curled slightly upwards, a half-smile playing on her lips as she said, "Don't you know? You were spying on me for quite a while yesterday afternoon!"
Xie Nan's face flushed red instantly, like a ripe apple. She stammered, "Oh dear, I... I didn't mean to!"
Tao Hong didn't care whether she did it on purpose or not. She said to Xie Nan with a serious expression, "You must remember to keep this a secret, okay?"
Xie Nan nodded frantically, saying repeatedly, "Don't worry, Sister Tao Hong, I definitely won't tell anyone!" However, as soon as she finished speaking, the scene she had just witnessed suddenly flashed into her mind, and her face flushed red. She stammered, "Sister Tao Hong, is... is that thing really that pleasurable?"
Tao Hong was clearly taken aback by Xie Nan's sudden question. She paused for a moment, then casually replied, "You'll know once you're married!"
After hearing Tao Hong's words, Xie Nan looked thoughtfully at the ceiling, but Wang Hu's image involuntarily appeared in her mind.
Seeing this, Tao Hong's heart skipped a beat. She thought to herself, "Could this girl be thinking about Wang Hu? No, I have to get her to stop thinking about him quickly. This girl is so beautiful and capable; she's a formidable rival!"
So, Tao Hong quickly gathered her thoughts, put on a serious face, and said to Xie Nan, "When you look for a boyfriend in the future, never date someone like Wang Hu. He's a complete scumbag who falls in love with every girl he sees. You should stay away from him!"
After listening to Tao Hong's words, Xie Nan felt that what she said made some sense, so she nodded in agreement.
However, she couldn't help but wonder, "If Wang Hu is a scumbag, why is Sister Tao Hong still so proactive towards him?"
The next morning around 9 a.m., Wang Hu was doing morning exercises with Fan Xiaopang's slender waist in his arms in front of the window in the room.
With his hands gripping the glass, Fan Xiaopang asked him haltingly, "I'm going back to China today, why are you staying here?"
Wang Hu didn't even stop what he was doing, and casually replied, "What happened last night has to be finished, otherwise it's too uncomfortable to have a venomous snake watching me all the time!"
Although Fan Xiaopang still had more questions, he couldn't ask them anymore. He trembled all over and collapsed into Wang Hu's arms.
Wang Hu took her to take a shower, and after getting her dressed, he prepared to go out and take her to the airport.
As soon as he arrived in the lobby on the 17th floor, he saw Tao Hong looking at him with a resentful expression.
