Quite awkward

It was evening when Qi Yu came out of the crew hotel. The train tickets back to Linjiang were sold out, so she could only buy the train early the next morning.

She booked an hourly room near the train station, planning to rest for a few hours before catching the train.

But although it was cheap, the smell in the room was really bad. A rotten and damp smell hit her nose. Qi Yu tried to open the window for ventilation, but when she pulled open the curtains, she only saw a white wall.

She smiled helplessly and sadly, and then glanced at the yellow stains on the quilt, which made her feel nauseous again.

It was dark outside now, and she had nowhere to stay if she went out, and she might not be able to guarantee her own safety, so she could only stay here and endure for a few more hours.

She took out alcohol wipes from her bag and carefully wiped the chair clean, intending to sit there overnight.

Qi Yu was not in the mood to sleep, and was not at all sleepy.

In the early morning, she turned on her cell phone and found that there were thousands of missed calls. The calls suddenly stopped around ten o'clock last night, followed by dozens of missed calls from her eldest brother Mu Yanqing.

She quickly switched to WeChat.

Mu Yanqing told her in the message that he had asked someone to help her clarify the video, found the source of the publisher, and identified the netizens who exposed her personal information. He would sue them one by one.

Big Brother: [Ayu, where are you now? Call me back soon, I'm worried about you.]

Big brother has been looking for her, even... he has now arrived in Hengcheng.

Qi Yu was so scared that she quickly called back.

The call was connected immediately.

Qi Yu hurriedly reported that he was safe, and his breathing became rapid.

"Brother, I've already found a hotel to stay in."

"address?"

Two words were uttered from the other end, and the voice was not as gentle as Mu Yanqing's. Qi Yu couldn't help but suspect that he had dialed the wrong number.

"I'm Muchenan. My brother is driving and he asked you to tell him the address."

Qi Yu didn't have time to think about it and quickly told where he was.

“Xiaoxiao Guesthouse near the train station.”

Mu Chenan was silent for a moment, thinking about the dirty environment of the guesthouse and the bad migrant workers.

He angrily criticized her harshly.

"Qi Yu, I think you are crazy. You dare to live in a place like this."

Hearing his voice, Qi Yu felt even more unhappy. She was too lazy to refute and hung up the phone directly.

After a few minutes, Qi Yu finally realized that the sound insulation of this guesthouse was very poor.

It was so loud that she could hear the sounds of lovemaking next door, mixed with the hoarse shouts of men and women, as if middle-aged people were rushing to relieve their desires.

When she thought of this, Qi Yu felt nauseous again. She hurriedly pulled her suitcase and went to the front desk to check out.

Over the years, she has not lived a life of luxury in the Mu family, but she has lived an extremely refined life.

All the household items in her room were high-end brands that Mu Yanqing personally selected, and even the paintings on the walls were masterpieces. He instructed the servants to clean her room every day, keeping it spotless and fresh.

This incident left a psychological trauma on Qi Yu, and she would never consider such a dirty and unbearable residence again.

As she thought about it, all the grievances in her heart surged up at once. She squatted on the steps of the guesthouse with her knees hugged, just like a puppy waiting for its owner to pick it up.

A black Maybach was parked in the aisle in front of the guesthouse, making the place look shabby and dark.

The passenger door was facing Qi Yu, who pushed it open and got out. In the dim darkness, she could only see two straight, long legs striding towards her.

Mu Chenan didn't give Qi Yu time to come back to her senses. He picked up her suitcase with one hand, grabbed her arm with the other, and half pushed and half hugged her into the car.

After Qi Yu'an sat safely in the back seat, Mu Yanqing turned his head to look at her. He could vaguely see two tear marks on the little girl's face. He turned on the dome light in the car again.

My eyelashes are still wet.

I really did cry.

He felt a little distressed and was about to say a few words of comfort when Muchen got in the car and urged him to turn around quickly.

"how?"

"There's a police car out front. They come to places like this to investigate prostitution."

Qi Yu stretched her neck and saw the red and blue police lights, and was startled. If she hadn't left in time, she might have encountered the police catching a group of men and women holding their heads. She could more or less imagine how chaotic the scene would be.

Mu Yanqing set off again, and the car was getting farther and farther away from the train station. Qi Yu thought of the train back to Linjiang in three hours, so he silently clicked to refund the ticket.

On the way, the car was very quiet and no one spoke. Mu Yanqing was concentrating on driving, while Mu Chenan leaned comfortably on the passenger seat with his eyes closed.

The two men had first rushed from Linjiang on the highway and were now going back overnight. They were both very busy men and had stayed up all night looking for her.

Qi Yu felt uneasy and guilty.

If she was scolded, she would accept it.

After driving for nearly two hours, the car spun around and pulled into a gas station.

Qi Yu didn't sleep at all and quietly accompanied Mu Yanqing in driving.

After the Maybach stopped, Mu Chenan woke up. After a moment, his eyes became clear again. He pushed the door and got out of the car to stretch his numb legs and feet.

Qi Yu also got out of the car and landed on the ground. She turned her head inadvertently and met Mu Chenan's gaze. She tried to raise the corners of her mouth and make a grateful smile.

Mu Chenan withdrew his gaze coldly and disdainfully.

"Your smile is so ugly, stop it."

Qi Yu suddenly withdrew her expression, and feelings of embarrassment, shame and anger surged up. She bit her lip and turned her back to sulk.
