"Master, please follow the location on my phone."
"Okay, I understand."
Bai Xiaoruo hailed a taxi; the location on her phone was the one Ji Ziqian had just sent her.
Hsien Ming-yu's car eventually stopped at the hotel's parking lot.
What is he doing at the hotel? Last time he inexplicably framed her, this time, she wants to see what good things he's up to at the hotel!
......
No sooner had Xian Mingyu stepped onto the elevator than Bai Xiaoruo arrived at the hotel.
On the way, when the driver heard that Bai Xiaoruo was going to the hotel to find her husband, he was so angry that he stood up for her and took a shortcut, running several traffic lights.
"Here you go, thank you, master."
Bai Xiaoruo gave the driver a few extra bills. He had run so many traffic lights and was speeding; the fines were sure to be substantial.
"Of course, of course. Good luck, young lady! If you really can't handle it by yourself, take a picture as evidence first."
"Okay, I understand."
Bai Xiaoruo opened the car door and hurriedly got out.
From now on, she will have to rely on herself for everything.
Although they followed Xian Mingyu to the hotel, they still didn't know which floor he went up to.
Bai Xiaoruo first went to the front desk to ask if they could help her access the surveillance footage.
"Are you Miss Bai?" A receptionist approached Bai Xiaoruo. "Mr. Xuan has already gone straight to the 23rd floor."
"Oh, thank you." Bai Xiaoruo was still a little puzzled. How did this person know her name?
Just as she was about to take the elevator, the receptionist stopped her. "If you go straight up like this, you definitely won't find Mr. Xian. I'll take you directly to the VIP elevator, which will take you directly to the 23rd floor in less than two minutes."
Bai Xiaoruo hesitated for a moment. It would be best to go directly, but if she was delayed for too long, she would have even less chance of finding out which room he was in.
"Okay, thank you for your help."
"Of course."
The VIP elevator at this hotel is not open to just anyone; it requires fingerprint unlocking at the front desk to operate.
The receptionist escorted Bai Xiaoruo directly into the elevator before returning to her work station, and at the same time made a phone call.
***
When Bai Xiaoruo came out of the elevator, Xuan Mingyu had already arrived at the 23rd floor that Su Yulu had mentioned on her phone.
He was in a hurry because it was his first time at this hotel, and he needed to look around to find room 2307, as the room numbers here were not in order.
Bai Xiaoruo quickly withdrew her foot and hid to the side, afraid of being discovered by him.
She quietly followed Xuan Mingyu to the door of room 2307, hid behind the wall, peeked out with half her head, and watched silently.
Then, Xian Mingyu raised his hand and knocked on the door. After the door opened, Su Yulu walked out wearing a sexy red halter dress and wrapped her slender arms around Xian Mingyu's neck.
They were too far away to hear what they were saying, so Su Yulu lured Xian Mingyu back into the room.
The door wasn't completely closed, just ajar, and Bai Xiaoruo immediately became uneasy.
She clutched her stomach tightly, still somewhat incredulous at the figure she had just witnessed.
No, no, he wouldn't do that to her. There must be some misunderstanding. She has to find out!
Meanwhile, inside the room.
Without any pity, Xuan Mingyu broke free from Su Yulu's hands. "What exactly do you want to do?"
"You called me here saying you'd been kidnapped, and then what? When I arrived, what did I see? Were you tied up and being threatened? Luo'er, you know my temper well. Don't try to test my patience with these ridiculous reasons, not even with you!"
Xuan Mingyu turned to leave, but Su Yulu hurriedly grabbed him, crying, "No! Yu! Don't go!"
When Bai Xiaoruo walked to the door, she saw Su Yuluo and Xuan Mingyu hugging each other.
From her perspective, Xian Mingyu had his back to her, so she couldn't see the expression on his face, while Su Yulu's meticulously made-up profile was facing the doorway.
"Let go." Xuan Mingyu lowered his voice, barely suppressing his anger.
She keeps toying with him like this, using all sorts of excuses to get him to spend time with her. How long is she going to keep this up? Wasn't what he told her before clear enough?
"No! I don't want to! Yu, don't go. I know you love me. If it weren't for the child in Bai Xiaoruo's belly, you would have divorced her and been with me long ago." Su Yuluo spoke loudly enough for Bai Xiaoruo outside the crack in the door to hear clearly.
What?
Is what Su Yuluo said true?
Bai Xiaoruo fell into deep thought.
It's all because of this child... If it weren't for the child, their marriage would have ended months ago.
She still believed he truly loved her; his sweet words and heartfelt declarations of love still seemed to echo in her ears...
Why? Why did it turn out like this?
Is this the truth she's always wanted to know?
"you......"
Just as Xian Mingyu was about to speak, Su Yulu suddenly stood on tiptoe, cupped his face in her hands, and kissed his lips precisely.
That stopped him from saying what he was about to say.
Bai Xiaoruo, who was outside the crack in the door, covered her mouth in shock and almost cried out.
Tears, which had been held back for so long, finally streamed down her face.
No, it's not true.
How could they... how could they...
