The Mysterious Night of Beijing

Lin Yuxin immediately went into battle mode.

"Chief Engineer Su is truly dedicated; even on vacation, he's still thinking about work?"

She asked seemingly casually.

"I didn't take a vacation."

Su Qing started the car. "I'm here on behalf of the group to formally extend an invitation to Consultant Chen."

"We happen to have a hotel press conference over there, and we'd like to invite Consultant Chen to come and provide technical guidance."

Su Qing's tone was very calm, as if she were talking about official business.

Lin Yuxin sneered inwardly. Hotel press conference? What a joke.

"Really? Then it's on my way."

With a quick glance, Lin Yuxin named the most luxurious five-star hotel in the city center, "Let's go there."

As she spoke, she tightened her grip on Chen Ziming's arm and leaned her head affectionately on his shoulder, striking a pose that asserted her dominance over Su Qing in the rearview mirror.

Feeling uncomfortable being leaned against, Chen Ziming tried to move, but Lin Yuxin held him down firmly.

He felt that this woman was acting strangely today, more troublesome than usual.

Watching Lin Yuxin's subtle movements in the rearview mirror, Su Qing felt a sense of curiosity about a woman for the first time.

She had looked up Lin Yuxin's information; she was an internet celebrity streamer who rose to fame through hype and online traffic, all looks and no substance.

She couldn't understand why someone like Chen Ziming would get entangled with a woman like this.

Could it be that he likes this type?

For the first time, a question unrelated to technology and formulas arose in Su Qing's mind.

The car stopped in front of the hotel.

Lin Yuxin practically dragged Chen Ziming out of the car, not even glancing at Su Qing, and walked straight into the hotel lobby.

"Hey, Chief Engineer Su, thank you so much! We can pay for the room ourselves, no need for you to go to all that trouble!"

Her voice wasn't loud, but it was loud enough for Su Qing to hear clearly.

Sitting in the car, Su Qing watched the two figures walk into the hotel, and for the first time, a hint of amusement appeared on her usually cold face.

interesting.

The hotel room.

Looking at the extremely luxurious presidential suite in front of him, Chen Ziming felt that Lin Yuxin might really have something wrong with her head.

"Why did you bring me here?"

"You booked a hotel room, can't you tell?"

Lin Yuxin tossed her bag onto the sofa, walked to the huge floor-to-ceiling window, stretched, and revealed her perfect curves.

Chen Ziming looked at her without saying a word.

He was pondering whether the cost of taking a taxi back to the base from here was higher than the cost of staying overnight here.

The conclusion is that taking a taxi back is more cost-effective.

"I'm leaving." He turned and walked towards the door. "Stop!"

Lin Yuxin rushed over and blocked the doorway with her arms outstretched.

"Chen Ziming, are you even a man?"

His stubbornness was driving her crazy.

Chen Ziming looked at her and thought about the question very seriously.

From a biological perspective, yes.

From a sociological perspective, he also possesses all the basic characteristics of a man.

"Yes." Lin Yuxin almost choked on her breath, taken a deep breath, and decided to use the most direct method.

She walked up to him and slowly, bit by bit, pulled down the zipper of her coat over her shoulder.

Her coat slipped down, revealing her smooth shoulders and delicate collarbones.

The soft room light shone on her, making her skin appear almost reflective of whiteness.

She looked at him, her eyes watery, filled with a nervousness and anticipation she herself was unaware of.

"Is it pretty?"

Chen Ziming's gaze fell on her bare shoulders.

He frowned, bent down to pick up the coat from the ground, put it back on her, and zipped it all the way up.

"The central air conditioning in the room has its vents pointing directly at you."

He said in a serious tone, "If you keep doing this, you'll easily get frozen shoulder."

Lin Yuxin: "..."

Looking at the man in front of her, earnestly explaining health knowledge to her, she felt all her strength drain away.

She had prepared herself all night with captivating charm, and every step she meticulously planned turned into a joke in his eyes.

She just stared at him blankly, tears welling up in her eyes, but in the end, they didn't fall.

Lin Yuxin sniffed, turned around and walked to the other bedroom in the suite, slamming the door shut.

Looking at the tightly closed door, Chen Ziming thought this woman was really inexplicable.

He picked up his backpack, walked to the door, and prepared to leave.

[Ding, the system has detected that the host is in a high-consumption environment. The system suggests that the host leave as soon as possible to save unnecessary expenses.]

Chen Ziming was satisfied with the system's prompts, which further strengthened his resolve to leave.

He had just put his hand on the doorknob when a loud knocking came from outside.

"Open the door! We're checking the water meter!"

The voice was fierce, and it was accompanied by the laughter of several people.

Chen Ziming frowned.

Checking the water meter at this point in time, in this way, at this five-star hotel, makes no logical sense.

He didn't open the door, but walked up to the cat and took a look.

Three men stood at the door, each burly and thick-waisted, wearing thick gold chains around their necks and covered in tattoos; they were clearly not good people.

trouble.

Chen Ziming had already defined it in his mind.

He didn't want to open the door and planned to wait for them to leave on their own.

"You won't open the door, huh? Guys, ram it!"

A loud shout came from outside the door, followed by a loud bang that shook the entire door.

The door to the other bedroom opened, and Lin Yuxin peeked out, her face still streaked with tears.

"What's wrong?"

"It's nothing," Chen Ziming said. "It's probably just a special service offered by the hotel."

Lin Yuxin: "..."

She felt that Chen Ziming's brain circuits might not be structured the same as those of a normal person.

"Bang! Bang!"

The banging on the door grew louder and louder, and the door lock began to deform.

Lin Yuxin was a little scared. She walked over to Chen Ziming and whispered, "Should we call the police?"

"Calling the police, taking a statement, and making a report will take at least two hours."

Chen Ziming calmly analyzed, "The time cost is too high, it's not worth it."

Looking at the rickety door, he was quickly calculating in his mind.

If the door is forced open, the hotel will seek compensation from them for the repair costs, which would be a financial loss.

Getting into a physical altercation with these people could result in injury, a trip to the hospital, wasted time, and financial loss.

The best solution is to eliminate the source of the problem at the lowest possible cost before the loss occurs.

He opened the door.

The three burly men outside the door were so surprised that the door suddenly opened that they almost fell headfirst inside.

The bald man at the head of the group steadied himself, looked Chen Ziming up and down, then glanced at Lin Yuxin behind him, who looked nervous, and a malicious smile appeared on his face.

"Hey kid, you're pretty rich, aren't you? Taking such a pretty girl and staying in such a nice hotel."

"Where's Li Dalin? Tell him to get out here!"

Li Dalin?

Chen Ziming was stunned. He hadn't expected that this trouble was related to that foolish apprentice.

"We don't know any Li Dalin," Lin Yuxin said, pouting, clearly dissatisfied.
