"Star Bright Hotel, Room 504. If you don't want to be a cuckold, come quickly."
Huo Cheng shot up from his study chair, casually threw on a coat, picked up his phone, dialed a number, and headed out.
"Is Sisi at home?"
Yang Qian didn't know who was on the other end, but she answered honestly, "No. She seems to have gone to a bar."
The line went dead with a series of beeps.
Yang Qian scratched her head and decided to tell Sisi about it. But when she dialed Sisi's number, it couldn't be connected.
Huo Cheng drifted all the way to the Star Bright Hotel.
He got out of the car, tossed the keys to the valet, and rushed straight for Room 504.
"Sir, are you here to check in or dine?"
Huo Cheng ignored the question and headed straight upstairs.
"Sir, sir!" The receptionist could tell he was up to no good and knew he might be causing trouble. But no matter how hard she tried to stop him, she couldn't.
When he saw the number 504 on the door, Huo Cheng looked around and finally fixed his eyes on the surveillance camera in the corridor.
Zhao Wanru clutched her heart and trembled. She had almost been discovered just now.
Huo Cheng somehow found a stick. With a hard pull, the monitor fell to the ground. Then he kicked hard, and the door of Room 504 flew open.
The noise in the corridor and the sound of the kicked door were so loud that people in the surrounding rooms came out, but they were immediately intimidated by Huo Cheng's imposing manner and went back inside.
People who could afford to stay in this hotel weren't stupid.
Adhering to the principle of causing as little trouble as possible, they actually returned to their rooms. In fact, they were just scared.
Huo Cheng dragged the stick into the room and only saw Gu Sisi on the bed, fully dressed.
Wen Xuanyang didn't hear the commotion at first. He came out of the bathroom with a basin of water in his hand. Seeing a stranger in the room, he was stunned.
"You..." Wen Xuanyang didn't know what to say.
"Why is Sisi here?" Huo Cheng gave him a sidelong glance. Knowing the situation wasn't what he had imagined, he felt relieved.
"She's drunk." Wen Xuanyang explained. He placed the basin on the bedside table, wrung out a towel, and said, "I was going to wipe her forehead. Since you're here, I'll leave it to you."
Huo Cheng took the towel that was offered to him. He wet it again, wrung it out slightly, and wiped her hands and face.
Gu Sisi squirmed restlessly in her sleep and rolled to the other side of the bed.
"Did you send me that text message?"
"What text message?" Wen Xuanyang was confused.
Huo Cheng showed him his phone and looked around the room. "If there's a fourth person here, who do you think it is?"
Looking at the phone number, Wen Xuanyang handed the phone back. "No need to guess. I know."
Huo Cheng suddenly appeared in front of Zhao Wanru. Originally, Zhao Wanru was about to enter the room when she thought there was no more noise inside. But unexpectedly, a figure emerged from behind her.
It was Huo Cheng, who was supposed to be in the room. She was almost scared out of her wits.
"Do... do you need something?" Zhao Wanru stammered.
She still had a deep psychological shadow of this man who could easily beat her half to death.
"What are you doing here?" Huo Cheng squinted at her, his eyes full of scrutiny.
"I... I'm waiting for someone." Zhao Wanru said bravely.
"Waiting for Wen Xuanyang?"
Zhao Wanru looked in the direction of Huo Cheng's gaze in confusion. Just then, she saw Wen Xuanyang closing the door and walking towards them. She took a few steps back to the right and stammered, "Why do you ask?"
"Nothing!" Huo Cheng snatched her phone and flipped through her text messages. There were no relevant messages.
Just as he saw the look of relief on her face.
Huo Cheng randomly typed a message and sent it to his own phone number. Sure enough, he saw a new text message under that phone number.
Zhao Wanru had no choice but to admit, "It was me. So what? I saw my ex - fiancé and another woman's fiancée enter a room. Isn't it normal for me to inform the other fiancé?"
"Wanru!" Wen Xuanyang, who happened to hear this, was full of disappointment in his eyes.
He had never expected Wanru to be so unreasonable. "If you were worried, you could have just asked me directly."
"Who knows if you're two - faced!" Although Zhao Wanru was a bit confused about why both of them were out of the room, she still responded properly. "Besides, didn't we break off our engagement?"
"So you came to catch someone in the act?" There was sarcasm in Huo Cheng's eyes.
"Who knows what might happen when a man and a woman are alone in a room? I've known Gu Sisi for a while. I'm just afraid she might make a wrong decision. And isn't it cruel for a fiancé to be kept in the dark about his fiancée's affair?"
Zhao Wanru implied something.
It was as if Wen Xuanyang and Gu Sisi had just done something bad.
"I don't need a stranger to inform me." Huo Cheng's face suddenly darkened.
Zhao Wanru stood there as if frozen, not daring to move. "Moreover, whatever grudges you and your ex - fiancé have are your own business. If you drag Sisi into this mess, I guarantee you'll regret it."
With that, Huo Cheng turned around and entered the room. The next second, he picked up Gu Sisi in his arms.
In the elevator, Huo Cheng dialed a number. "Star Bright Hotel. Send someone over to handle something."
Jiang Lihao was stunned when he received the call. He couldn't believe that this guy actually asked him for help. It was as rare as an iron tree blooming.
"What's up?"
"I broke the door and the surveillance camera."
"..."
Sure enough, when the big shot took action, it was extraordinary.
But...
"Huo Cheng, that's my old man's property. You know I've fallen out with him. I can't always interfere, right?"
"Fine. I'll go talk to your old man then."
Huo Cheng's words immediately made Jiang Lihao explode. "No no no. I'll send someone over right away to handle it. I'll definitely make you satisfied..."
Huo Cheng carried Gu Sisi out of the hotel. Just as he reached the lobby, Wen Xuanyang followed him out.
"Wait a minute!"
Huo Cheng turned around. "What is it?"
The two stared at each other. The air around them seemed to drop several degrees. Passers - by were afraid and quickly avoided them.
The receptionist was so panicked that she quickly informed the lobby manager.
"Man... manager, they seem to be about to fight!" The receptionist had seen people causing trouble, but never in such a high - class hotel. She was extremely panicked.
The manager had just hung up the phone. Looking at the two men in front of him, he silently confirmed a few times in his mind and then said, "Don't worry about it. Just act like nothing happened."
"What?"
"Smart people talk less." The manager turned his head slightly and gave a hint.
There were many such things. Whether one could understand was a personal matter.
"Take good care of her." Wen Xuanyang finally managed to say this after a long silence. Maybe even he wasn't sure why he had rushed out.
Huo Cheng raised his eyebrows and stared straight at him. "Do I need someone else to remind me to take care of my fiancée?"
For a moment, the two men got closer. Gu Sisi, leaning against Huo Cheng, wrinkled her face uncomfortably and squirmed a few times.
"It's just a reminder." Wen Xuanyang didn't back down in the eye - to - eye confrontation.
On the other side of the lobby, where the two men couldn't see, a pair of binoculars were pointed at them. The person behind the binoculars curled their lips into a smile.
