Chapter 146: Mystery
Seeing Mo Chi’s worried expression, Butler Zhang comforted him, “Sir, with you following her, nothing will happen to Young Madam.”
Mo Chi ignored Butler Zhang’s words and only stared ahead. It was best if nothing happened. If anything happened, he would make the Qin family suffer.
Twenty minutes later, Qin Ran’s taxi stopped outside Rongsheng Hotel.
Why did she come to the hotel? Could it be that Qin Ran really wanted to go shopping with Su Nan and had only come here in advance to wait for her? Mo Chi thought about it again. This didn’t make sense either. If she was waiting for a friend, why didn’t she wait in school but came here by car?
After all, Butler Zhang had followed Mo Chi for so many years. He understood what to do when the other party gave him a look, so he immediately called Su Nan. Previously, Butler Zhang had specially left Su Nan’s number in case of emergencies. He did not expect it to be used so quickly.
“Student Su Nan, I’m Butler Zhang. I want to ask if our Young Madam is still in school? I plan to pick her up.” Not knowing Qin Ran’s specific arrangements, Butler Zhang was especially careful with his words.
At this moment, his phone was on speaker, so Mo Chi had also heard from Su Nan that Qin Ran had something on at home and had already returned home early.
The lass pulled both sides to be her shield. What exactly was going on? Why did she come to Rongsheng Hotel alone? The more he sat here, the more puzzled he became. He might as well get out of the car and check.
Mo Chi pulled Butler Zhang to the hotel lobby after he saw that Qin Ran had already entered the hotel.
“Hello, which room is the young lady who just passed by?” Mo Chi asked in a low voice.
“Hello, sir. Our hotel values the privacy of our guests, so it’s not convenient for us to reveal our guests’ information,” the receptionist replied politely.
After Mo Chi gave Butler Zhang a look, a stack of cash was slapped on the front desk.
“Which room did she book?” Mo Chi asked again, his eyes filled with anxiety.
The receptionist’s eyes lit up when she saw the stack of cash. This was her salary for several months. Then, she said, “That young lady didn’t get a room. The room she went to was booked by a tall and handsome man. He even specially asked our colleagues to decorate the scene with roses all over the floor.”
“Get a room, get the suite beside her!” Mo Chi suppressed the anger in his heart.
When Butler Zhang saw this, he did not dare to delay for a moment and quickly handed over his identity card.
“This…” The receptionist was about to refuse and say that it was against the rules when she lowered her head and saw a gold card from a high-end mall under his ID card.
This gold card was worth at least 50,000 yuan. It was considered to be in line with the rules to accept the card and work for it.
Two minutes later, the two of them took the room card and boarded the elevator.
Who exactly was Qin Ran meeting? She even booked a suite on the top floor of the hotel, and a couple suite at that!
Mo Chi’s expression was frighteningly dark. Butler Zhang tried his best to control his breathing and did not dare to say anything.
On the other side, Qin Ran had already arrived at the door and directly swiped her card to push it open.
Suddenly, countless bright red rose petals scattered down from above her head and landed beside her. There were even one or two petals that flew into her mouth.
“Happy birthday!”
Qin Ran rolled her eyes helplessly and spat out the petals in her mouth on the ground. “You’ve been celebrating my birthday since I was young. Don’t you remember when it was my birthday?”
The man had a slender waist and narrow arms. His facial features were smooth and balanced. At a glance, he was a peerless handsome man. This was her life-and-death partner, Tang Chi.
“In the past, I didn’t know your real birthday. Now that I know, of course I have to celebrate it with you on the right day!” Tang Chi said as she took off Qin Ran’s bag and hung it at the door. “But to be honest, you look like a pure-hearted university student.”
“Don’t cause trouble for me. My birthday was decided by my parents. I only have my adoptive parents in my heart, so naturally, I only celebrate the birthday they gave me.” It was not difficult for her to joke around with Tang Chi, but when it came to her adoptive parents, Qin Ran was especially serious.
“Alright, alright. Remember, we’ll only celebrate the previous birthday in the future.” Tang Chi’s relationship with Qin Ran was the closest, so he had heard about the things the Qin family had done. He was also very supportive of Qin Ran severing ties with them.
“Let’s get down to business!” Qin Ran knew that Tang Chi must have something very important to tell her.
Actually, although Tang Chi usually looked indecent, he was still very reliable at critical moments. For example, ever since Qin Ran retired from the National Security Bureau, he had never taken the initiative to contact Qin Ran. He was afraid that if he were to fall one day, others would implicate her.
