The reborn movie queen is rebellious and the villain boss surrenders obediently

Chapter 171 Love can really make life worse than death

The man was wearing a khaki long trench coat and was tall. Because his skin color was very fair, his handsome facial features looked particularly distinct. His pair of narrow phoenix eyes added a bit of charm, and he looked so good that it seemed unreal.

He adjusted the rimless glasses on the bridge of his nose, and with a warm smile on his face, he took the initiative and said, "I wonder if Miss Qiao still has an impression of me?"

Qiao Xingcan slowly retracted the surprise on his face, and raised the corners of his lips politely and distantly, "I remember you, Lu Shen."

She had made Qi Zhan jealous for a long time because she praised Lu Shen's handsomeness at Lu Ze and Su Ruan's engagement party.

Thinking of Qi Zhan, she was a little distracted.

As soon as the blonde beauty saw that the two of them knew each other, and Lu Shen's unusual appearance and temperament made him intimidating, she muttered something and turned around and left in despair.

Lu Shen looked at her and smiled lightly, "What a coincidence. I didn't expect to meet you here."

"Thank you just now."

Qiao Xingcan also smiled back, but her eyes were wary. She didn't believe that such a chance encounter in a foreign country would happen to her by such a coincidence.

It's hard to believe that Lu Shen was sending someone to monitor her. When he found out she went to the airport, he asked someone to check her flight number and buy the nearest one to follow her!

It wasn't that she judged a gentleman with a villain's heart, but it was because her hatred with the Lu family was too deep. Even though Qiao Xingcan knew that the whole thing had nothing to do with Lu Shen, she subconsciously didn't want to get too close to him.

Moreover, Lu Shen should know the cause of Lu Ming and Lu Ze's death, so she naturally felt that Lu Shen and her should be opposites.

Qiao Xingcan was still secretly speculating on Lu Shen's motives, but Lu Shen, who was suspected of being unkind, raised his hand and glanced at his watch, and then said with a normal expression, "Miss Qiao, I still have work to do, so I'll go first! You're the only one People must be careful when going out, and if you have any trouble, call the local police number for help in time!"

Qiao Xingcan's gaze, hidden by his sunglasses, paused for a moment, and then he nodded blankly.

Lu Shen nodded slightly, pulled the suitcase and left quickly, as if there was something urgent.

Qiao Xingcan was completely confused at this time, and he analyzed it vigilantly and defensively with himself. It turned out that he was just here for a business trip?

She left the airport full of suspicion. A taxi happened to pass by and she waved to stop it.

After getting on the bus, the driver asked her where she was going in English.

Only then did Qiao Xingcan realize that he had not booked a hotel at all, so he told the driver, "Just go to the nearest hotel."

The driver responded cheerfully, and within 10 minutes we stopped at a five-star hotel called Critia.

Qiao Xingcan paid and got out of the car. As soon as he walked into the hotel lobby, he saw a familiar figure checking in at the front desk from a distance.

She walked in unbelievingly and saw that it was really the Lu Shen she had met just ten minutes ago.

Seeing Qiao Xingcan, he was also surprised, "Miss Qiao? Have you booked this hotel too?"

Qiao Xingcan lowered his head and adjusted his sunglasses with some embarrassment, "I haven't decided yet. I just asked the taxi driver to take me to the nearest hotel. I didn't expect it to be the same hotel as you."

When he asked me this question, why did you suddenly feel guilty that you were following him?

Lu Shen nodded, "This hotel is indeed the closest to the airport. I booked it here for convenience."

Seeing his calm look, Qiao Xingcan felt even more awkward and hurriedly lowered his head to get his passport from his bag.

Lu Shen saw that she was holding the pet box in her hand, and it was a bit awkward to move, so he took the initiative to take it, "I'll help you get it."

Qiao Xingcan thanked her and said in fluent English while rummaging around in her bag for her passport, "Hello, a suite, two months to check in."

The front desk looked at the big goose in the pet box and said, "Sorry, miss, our hotel requires platinum members to bring pets in."

Qiao Xingcan made a move, and Lu Shen beside him had already handed over his diamond card, "We are together, please help her apply for it."

He turned around and explained to Qiao Xingcan, "The hotels here are all the same. Bringing pets in requires different levels of membership cards."

Qiao Xingcan choked on the words of rejection and said instead, "Thank you."

"You're welcome, you're welcome."

After checking in smoothly, Qiao Xingcan and Lu Shen took the elevator upstairs together.

After Qiao Xingcan pressed the 26th floor, Lu Shen also pressed the 32nd floor, and then said casually, "Is it necessary for Miss Qiao to come here for work?"

Qiao Xingcan lowered his eyes slightly, "No, I'm just here for a trip."

Lu Shen was silent for two seconds and then said hesitantly, "But Askalia is not a tourist city. It is a famous international financial center. Most people doing business come here. Why would Miss Qiao choose to travel here?"

Qiao Xingcan pursed her lips and said nothing. She lowered her head and stared at her toes, really not wanting to answer his question.

She came here because she was in a hurry. When she bought the ticket, she randomly chose the place name that was listed first. She happened to have a passport from here. She was not in the mood to think so much at the time. It was purely a random choice.

Seeing that she didn't answer, Lu Shen stopped asking.

Just when the elevator stopped on the 26th floor, Qiao Xingcan took the pet box from Lu Shen's hand and said absently, "Thank you for today, goodbye."

Lu Shen also smiled lightly and said, "Goodbye."

Qiao Xingcan stepped out of the elevator, found her room, and swiped her card to enter.

She went straight into the bedroom, laid herself down on the soft bed, and finally took off the sunglasses she had worn all day.

She stared blankly at the ceiling with a pair of red and swollen fox eyes, her vision slowly became blurred, and tears fell uncontrollably down her temples.

In the past ten hours, she felt like she was about to shed a lifetime of tears. As soon as she calmed down, the memory of Qi Zhan kept creeping into her mind.

She thought leaving would be a relief, but she didn't expect it would be a more profound torture.

After Qiao Xingcan cried for a while, she put ice cubes on her eyes. The cycle continued again and again, and she had another sleepless night.

Before, Qiao Xingcan didn't understand why Feng Xing acted so self-defeating and indifferent after his breakup.

Now she has truly realized that love can really make life worse than death!

For two whole days, she stayed in the room without eating or drinking, and was too lazy to even move.

Room service knocked on the door twice every day to ask if cleaning was needed, but she always replied feebly: no.

At eight o'clock in the morning on the third day, there was a knock on her door again, but it was not room service.
