The server led Cheng Xiaofan and Meilaina to the sixth floor, where they were assigned a suite and then left.
The suite was simple, with a living room, a bedroom, and a bathroom.
The room was quite spacious, bright and clean, with fresh flower arrangements and a faint floral scent in the air.
However!
There was only one double bed.
It was then that Cheng Xiaofan realized this was a suite specifically arranged for couples.
Liu Yishou had previously informed the staff that Cheng Xiaofan and Meilaina were a couple and requested that they be given a couple's room.
Cheng Xiaofan sat on the sofa and chuckled, "Liu Yishou is truly amusing. He actually had the staff arrange a couple's suite for us."
Meilaina's eyes sparkled as she smiled charmingly, "There's nothing strange about that. He could tell at a glance that we are a couple, so of course, he would arrange a couple's suite for us."
"If I'd known, we should have just booked our stay here!"
"..." Cheng Xiaofan was somewhat taken aback by her words.
Did Meilaina genuinely consider him her lover?
Cheng Xiaofan stood up and said, "Meilaina, I'm going to take a shower before resting!"
Meilaina smiled seductively, "Why don't we shower together?"
Cheng Xiaofan immediately replied, "No, I'm only used to showering alone."
He dared not say more to her and turned to leave.
Entering the bathroom, Cheng Xiaofan even locked the door tightly before he felt safe enough to undress and shower, acting more timid than a woman.
Listening to the sound of running water from the bathroom, Meilaina couldn't help but want to laugh, thinking, this man is so interesting. He's scared, and I don't even care.
Unlike American men, who pounce on beautiful women like hungry tigers.
Before long, Cheng Xiaofan emerged from his shower.
Meilaina said, "You're done, now it's my turn to shower!"
After she left, Cheng Xiaofan immediately took out his phone, intending to call Jingzi.
He also thought about the conflict he had with Weathers that morning. It was certainly captured on camera and posted online, spreading throughout Washington.
If Jingzi found out online that he hadn't returned and was still here, what would she think?
Jingzi was a very pure girl, and Cheng Xiaofan didn't want to cause her any harm, especially since she had already become his.
When he dialed Jingzi's number, her voice immediately came from the other end of the line, "Master, have you returned to China?"
It seemed Jingzi hadn't been online yet.
Cheng Xiaofan felt he should tell the truth: "Jingzi, I haven't returned yet. Next year, Chinatown will be hosting the World Chinese Chef Competition, and I want to participate in it before I go back!"
Jingzi smiled, "I'm busy cultivating right now. Otherwise, I'd really want to come and see!"
Cheng Xiaofan said, "Don't come over. I'll come to see you before I return to China!"
Jingzi's eyes lit up with excitement, "Okay, Master, I'm so happy!"
Cheng Xiaofan said, "Alright, that's all for now. I have to hang up!"
Jingzi replied, "Master, bye-bye!"
Cheng Xiaofan responded, "Bye-bye!"
After hanging up, Cheng Xiaofan lay down on the bed.
Just as he was about to fall asleep, Meilaina, having finished her shower, came over and snuggled into his arms like a cat.
Cheng Xiaofan, not wanting to push her away, shifted his body back.
Meilaina said, "Darling, why are you moving away? I'm not a tiger, I won't eat you. Hold me and sleep!"
Cheng Xiaofan finally conceded, "Okay, I'll hold you and sleep!"
While holding Meilaina, he took the opportunity to send a wisp of spiritual energy into her brain, causing her to instantly fall into a deep sleep.
If he didn't make her sleep, he was genuinely worried he wouldn't be able to control himself.
The Dragon Pearl was acting up, and its strong possessiveness made Cheng Xiaofan's heart race.
Seeing Meilaina asleep, he finally breathed a sigh of relief.
He turned over, his back to Meilaina, and closed his eyes.
After sleeping for an hour, Cheng Xiaofan woke up. He casually touched Meilaina's pressure points, and she also woke up.
When Meilaina woke up, she reached up and scratched her head, saying, "Darling, it's so strange. You held me to sleep, and as soon as you held me, I fell asleep!"
Cheng Xiaofan replied, "My body must be very warm. As soon as you got close, you naturally fell asleep."
Meilaina asked curiously, "Does your body have a hypnotic function?"
Cheng Xiaofan replied with a serious face, "Yes, my body does have a hypnotic function. When I was at home, if someone's child was crying, people would bring the child to my house, and I'd hold them, and they'd immediately fall asleep!"
"Haha, really? If there are any beautiful women suffering from insomnia, would holding you make them sleep soundly?" Meilaina asked.
Cheng Xiaofan chuckled, "Of course, it would!"
Meilaina said, "Darling, I have a girlfriend who is quite voluptuous and very beautiful, but she's so thin, like a skeleton, because she often suffers from insomnia. Could you hold her for two nights?"
Cheng Xiaofan was immediately startled and shook his head vigorously, "Oh, my sweet kitten, you want me to hold a skeletal woman and sleep? You're deliberately trying to scare me to death!"
Meilaina laughed, "Look how scared you are. I'm just joking with you. I'm making it all up. I don't have such a girlfriend!"
Hearing her say this, Cheng Xiaofan finally breathed a sigh of relief.
The two left Liu Yishou's hotel and walked a short distance ahead. They spotted a gambling hall across the street. A man was being dragged out by two foreigners, thrown to the ground, and then kicked and beaten.
The man was Chinese and was crying out in pain.
Cheng Xiaofan couldn't stand it and immediately walked over, shouting at the two foreigners, "What right do you have to beat people like this?"
One of the foreigners glared at Cheng Xiaofan and shouted, "Kid, mind your own business, or we'll beat you too!"
*Slap!*
Cheng Xiaofan sent him flying over ten meters with a single slap. He hit the wall and lost consciousness on the spot.
The other foreigner was immediately stunned and took a few steps back, saying, "Don't hit me, I didn't provoke you!"
Cheng Xiaofan walked over and kicked him to his knees.
"If you don't want to be beaten, tell me why you were hitting him!" Cheng Xiaofan demanded angrily.
The foreigner, terrified, quickly said, "This person brought ten thousand yuan to gamble at our casino, lost all his money, and refused to leave. He wanted his ten thousand yuan back, so we had to throw him out."
Cheng Xiaofan asked, "Since you threw him out, why did you beat him?"
The foreigner replied, "Sorry, that was our mistake!"
Cheng Xiaofan then turned to the beaten man and said, "A bet is a bet. You lost all your money, what right do you have to demand it back?"
The man cried, "My mother is sick in the hospital and needs surgery. We only have ten thousand yuan at home, which isn't enough. I was temporarily blinded and ran to the casino, hoping to win some money for my mother's surgery. Who knew my luck would be so bad and I'd lose it all."
"Thinking of my mother lying in the hospital, I panicked and wanted to get that ten thousand yuan back!"
Cheng Xiaofan couldn't help but shake his head, "Gambling isn't always about winning. You're too foolish. How much money does your mother's surgery need?"
"Three hundred thousand!" the man replied.
At this moment, Meilaina took out a bank card from her belongings and said, "I have five hundred thousand in this card. Take it and hurry to get your mother treated!"
She then told him the PIN for the bank card.
The man realized Meilaina and Cheng Xiaofan were together. He took the bank card and bowed repeatedly to Cheng Xiaofan and Meilaina, saying, "Thank you, handsome man, thank you, beautiful lady!"
Cheng Xiaofan said, "No need for thanks, hurry to the hospital!"
After the man left, Cheng Xiaofan gave Meilaina a thumbs-up, "Meilaina, I didn't realize you had such a compassionate heart!"
"Let's go, stop joking around!" Meilaina affectionately linked her arm with his.
Cheng Xiaofan smiled, "Let's not go. I want to go into the casino and have a look!"
