"Phew..."

Watching Liu Jia's receding figure, Zhao Tienan finally let out a long sigh of relief.

Anyway, he managed to bluff his way through.

Thankfully, Liu Jia is just an intern and not very skilled at spotting clues.

Otherwise, once she discovered those two dismantled curtains, she would definitely realize something was off with Zhao Tienan immediately.

However, speaking of which, it's a good thing that Liu Jia is going to Fengshan County for her job in the future.

At least Zhao Tienan will have another connection there, making things easier if he plans to do something.

Soon, the police who came to inspect the hotel had finished their work.

This hotel suspected of unauthorized operations got shut down, and even the guests staying were kicked out.

"What kind of situation is this? Money spent, yet driven out in the middle of the night..."

Zhao Tienan stood at the entrance of the black hotel, witnessing the authorities placing two prominent seals on it.

"Ah..."

Zhao Tienan yawned, though he didn't want to accept this reality, but it had come so overwhelmingly.

Given the situation, Zhao Tienan could only find another place to continue resting.

"Huh, what's going on? Why isn't Small Facing Heaven Pepper answering the phone?"

Zhao Tienan smirked, feeling a twinge of anxiety inside.

Where on earth did this young girl go?

The night is already so late; what if she encounters some danger?

Feeling helpless, Zhao Tienan had to put down his phone, planning to settle somewhere first, then continue searching for where Xu Wenjing might be hiding.

Half an hour later, Zhao Tienan got himself a room at a hotel with proper licenses.

He was already sleepy, eyelids heavy, and as soon as he entered the room, he collapsed onto the bed, feeling lighter and lighter.

However, right as Zhao Tienan was about to fall asleep, he was suddenly startled by a gentle knocking on the door.

"Who is it?"

Zhao Tienan forcibly propped himself up, shouting in response.

"Mr. Zhao, sorry to interrupt, do you need any service?"

"We're professionals, not only equipped, but everything is brand new. Besides, I have many special tricks; you should keep me here."

A sultry voice from outside the door sounded, making one feel a bit tingly.

No doubt, the woman outside was definitely no ordinary character, precisely one of those wandering between hotels and inns, running a business without capital.

"Forget it, I'm in no mood to experience your exclusive skills,"

"Please leave immediately, don't disturb my rest."

Zhao Tienan said irritably, already suspecting the woman was part of the salacious crowd.

If he brought her home, his image would definitely be tarnished.

"Sir, why chase us away so heartlessly?"

"If money is the issue, I can give you a discount today, so what's the appeal?"

The woman, eager to close the deal, surprisingly adjusted the price just to earn quickly.

"Not much appeal, I'm not interested, and even at half price, still too expensive."

Zhao Tienan replied offhandedly, hoping she'd get the hint and leave him be.

Although Zhao Tienan is keen on such matters, not just any woman would catch his attention...
