When Ning Xi woke up the next morning, the soreness in her calves had indeed eased considerably.

Last night, He Kezhou massaged her legs, and she felt so comfortable that she fell asleep immediately.

She slept very soundly.

When she found herself back in bed, it took her only a second to accept it.

He Kezhou didn't mind the trouble of moving her from the sofa back to the bed, so he did.

A bed is much more comfortable to sleep on than a sofa.

Ning Xi spread herself out on the bed, spread out in a starfish shape, and spaced out for a few minutes.

She decided to throw away the black yoga mat that He Kezhou used as a "bed".

Of course, she wasn't trying to get He Kezhou to sleep in the same bed with her. It was simply that every time she saw that black yoga mat, she would think of He Kezhou curled up on it, and the sight of him made her feel inexplicably sad.

She's eating his food, using his things, and living in his house now. She simply can't bring herself to take over and let him sleep on the cold, hard floor.

My conscience really hurts.

Ning Xi realized that they would soon be moving out of here.

When the time comes, I can find a two-bedroom apartment.

The premise is that they have enough budget.

After Ning Xi finished washing up, she saw the breakfast that He Kezhou had left for her on the dining table.

Two boiled eggs and half a rice cooker of white porridge.

She cracked the egg with her skull.

"Wow. It really is refreshing and invigorating."

The eggs have gone cold.

Clearly, He Kezhou got up even earlier today.

Ning Xi swiped her phone with her fingertips.

He Kezhou returned the money she had transferred.

She poked at the pink and yellow roses on the table with her finger: "Little Yellow, Little Pink, you said He Ke makes breakfast at home, does he not even have money left to buy breakfast?"

"What's wrong with using a woman's money?"

"This person is too proud and has too much of a sense of responsibility, which is why the original owner kept acting up and bullying him."

"He doesn't accept money, so I can only order him lunch again, but I won't order coffee anymore."

"Women should never feel sorry for men!"

"Spending money on men is also unacceptable... but this is a special period and a special circumstance for me."

Ning Xi was talking to herself, getting quite animated.

She didn't dare linger too long. After finishing two eggs, she went back to her room to get her black yoga mat, then grabbed her phone from the table and went out to do her part-time job.

If it weren't for the fraudulent cosmetic surgery agency contacting her, intending to continue swindling her money, she could have worked a full day at the courier station.

The fact that the scammers continued to contact her was good news for Ning Xi.

After the scammer transferred 120,000 yuan from the original owner, he never contacted her again.

She hasn't felt at ease these past two days.

She went along with the scammer's words, saying that she had already booked her flight to South Korea, but still had some questions about the cosmetic surgery procedures, and asked him to give her a new plan and a quote for the procedures.

The scammers took the bait and even suggested meeting offline at 8 PM tonight.

The implication was that the money the original owner had transferred wasn't enough.

Ning Xi told the scammer that she had 180,000 yuan in cash at home, which she could bring to the hotel today and hand over to him on the spot.

You need bait to get fish to bite.

Later in the chat, the scammer sent her a sexy full-body photo of herself in a tank top and short skirt that she had previously taken in front of a mirror, repeatedly confirming with her whether the photo had been retouched.

They even gave her a "professional" critique of her figure.

Immediately afterwards, I sent her a meeting location.

The location sent by the scammer was a five-star hotel on Rose Road in Xincheng.

Ning Xi stared at the hotel's location, wanting to reach into her phone and give the scammers a good beating.

It seems this guy scammed her out of money, and now he wants to scam her out of her body.

He's so greedy and disgusting that I wish I could send him to work on a sewing machine right now.

Ning Xi immediately shared the information with the police.

I also informed the landlady in advance that I had something to do in the afternoon and needed to leave two hours early.

The proprietress glanced at her expressionlessly, "Deduct 20 yuan."

Ning Xi had no objection.

At six o'clock in the afternoon, she went to settle her part-time job fee with the boss before leaving.

The proprietress scanned the QR code she brought up with a cold face, her green platform slippers making a slurping sound.

She rubbed her back, which she had strained from beating her son that morning, and asked Ning Xi, "Are you coming again tomorrow?"

Her tone wasn't exactly pleasant, but it was the gentlest Ning Xi had heard her speak in the past two days.

She patted her chest confidently, "It's a package deal."

She became more and more adept at her work at the inn. After the initial fatigue wore off, she quite liked this kind of work that didn't require much brainpower and mostly just physically demanding.

She will continue this part-time job until she moves.

People only stop thinking so much when their bodies feel tired.

Moreover, she needs physical training.

Da Dong tossed Ning Xi a bag of plums.

After spending two days together, he discovered that Ning Xi was not the kind of girl who relied on her beauty, was self-centered, and was spoiled.

He's not afraid of getting tired or dirty, and he can even lift heavy objects. He doesn't talk much, but he works efficiently.

Ning Xi caught Liuliumei and said, "Thank you for feeding me."

Xi Xiaodong waved his hand, "If you have something to do, hurry up and leave."

Ning Xi went home first, took out the suitcase hidden in the closet, opened it, and sent the photos to the scammer.

To go all out of the act, she left with 180,000 yuan in her suitcase.

Ning Xi's job is to keep the scammers calm.

Police have already set up a checkpoint at the hotel.

She took a taxi to the hotel, and it was already 7:30 p.m.

Ning Xi stood outside the hotel, looking down at the messages sent by the scammers on her phone.

She was so engrossed in replying to messages that she didn't notice the tall man wearing a baseball cap coming out of the lobby.

Zhou Zhishui looked up from her phone and glanced a few more times at the woman's back as she stood outside the hotel.

In my line of sight, the woman's slender waist was exquisitely proportioned, her curves alluring and captivating. It piqued my curiosity about her appearance.

The woman looked up and gazed around, allowing Zhou Zhishui to see her face clearly.

Damn, isn't that Ning Xi?

What is she doing here?

Upon seeing the strange man with a suitcase walking towards Ning Xi, he didn't hesitate and immediately took a picture of He Kezhou and sent it to him.

Ning Xi is cheating on He Kezhou with someone else!

She was also pulling a suitcase; was she about to run away with some random man?

Zhou Zhishui felt increasingly sorry for He Kezhou.

Now that he has seen it, Ning Xi should not do anything to betray He Kezhou!

The man who spoke to Ning Xi was not very tall, but he was dressed very elegantly. His features were somewhat Korean, but his elegant appearance revealed obvious signs of plastic surgery and makeup.

Ning Xi was actually laughing with this androgynous person who was covered in logos and practically had "I'm rich" written all over his face!

Zhou Zhishui's gaze was so intense that it attracted the attention of Ning Xi and the man.

Ning Xi met Zhou Zhishui's gaze, her face expressionless, but her heart skipped a beat.

Shouldn't Zhou Zhishui be at the car dealership at this point?

Seeing Ning Xi's expression of not recognizing him, Zhou Zhishui clenched his fists in anger.

The man beside Ning Xi asked her gently, "Did you run into a friend?"

Ning Xi shook her head, praying in her heart that Zhou Zhishui would not disrupt her plans.

The fact that a scammer dares to swagger out of a hotel shows that he is confident in himself and that he won't be caught.

In his eyes, Ning Xi was nothing more than an ATM and a brainless idiot with only beauty.

Ning Xi said impatiently, "I don't know him. The way he looked at me was really annoying."

The man gently put his arm around Ning Xi's waist, and used his other hand to help her with her suitcase: "You're so beautiful. Men can't help but stare at beautiful women. Since we don't know each other, shall we go inside?"

Ning Xi gripped her suitcase tightly, her eyes revealing a hint of nervousness and shyness at being praised.

She subtly created some distance between them.

The man noticed her wariness and unease, and stopped insisting on pulling her suitcase.

He soothed her gently, thinking to himself that he could make another fortune tonight and sleep with a woman for free.

He wouldn't mind having more idiots like that.

Ning Xi took a step forward and smiled sweetly at the man, "Okay, it's too hot outside."

Zhou Zhishui was so angry that the veins on his forehead bulged.

Ning Xi actually treated him like he wasn't there, and even flirted with this wild man right in front of him.

She wasn't afraid at all to tell He Kezhou herself.

Those two scoundrels!

He angrily yelled at Ning Xi and the man's retreating figures, "You two adulterers!"

The two people who entered the hotel ignored the furious roar.

Zhou Zhishui dialed He Kezhou's number.

If he hadn't eaten something bad at noon and been sent back to the hotel to rest by Meng Yizhen, he wouldn't have encountered Ning Xi, who was having an affair, that night.

Zhou Zhishui felt that his habit of staying in hotels had come in very handy.

The call connected, and Zhou Zhishui spoke quickly: "He Kezhou, your girlfriend cheated on you. She's currently in a hotel room at the Westin Hotel on Rose Street with some other man. Come catch her in the act!"
