Volume 1 Chapter 45: Going to a Love Hotel with My Rival
Uh… this is awkward.
Lin Lin stared at the luxurious Love Hotel outside the car window and fell into deep thought.
Gao Liang, sitting in the front passenger seat, clearly expected her reaction. He coughed twice in embarrassment and explained,
“I looked at many places. After thinking it through, this one is the most suitable.”
“The most suitable my foot!”
Lin Lin shook her head right away and unconsciously leaned back, staring at him with caution.
“Wh-where do people go to a hotel for tutoring?! Shouldn’t we go to a tutoring center or somewhere like that?”
Lin Lin seriously started to suspect his intentions. No matter how she looked at it, something felt wrong. She quickly took out her phone, set an emergency contact, then looked at him with even more suspicion.
“Ahaha…” Gao Liang felt awkward under her stare and waved his hand.
“At tutoring centers, there are too many people, and basically no empty classrooms. I was worried you wouldn’t feel comfortable there. If it’s just the two of us, you don’t want to go to my place, so the only choice is to rent a room for a short time. Don’t worry, we won’t stay overnight, and I won’t do anything to you.”
Hmm…
Lin Lin’s mouth twitched. This guy…
It was true that she didn’t like crowded places. They made her feel nervous and anxious.
But she also didn’t want to be alone with her lifelong enemy…
That felt even more uncomfortable.
Seeing that she was still hesitating, Gao Liang quickly added, “I checked this place before. The environment is nice, the room is big, there are tables and chairs, it’s very clean, and there are desserts and drinks you can have freely. I already paid the deposit anyway, and nothing bad will happen. So, Lin Lin… shall we go in?”
“Ugh…”
What he said made her a little tempted. From the outside, the hotel looked very high-end. Even though it was a Love Hotel, the conditions were clearly good.
She had never experienced such a high-class place before.
Hmm…
Anyway, he’s the one paying.
If she doesn’t go in, it would be a waste, right?
And honestly, she probably wouldn’t find a better place for tutoring.
Lin Lin puffed up her cheeks, hesitated for a bit, then slowly nodded.
Seeing that she agreed, Gao Liang quickly got out of the car, opened the door for her, and waited for her to step out. The two of them then walked into the hotel, one after the other.
……………………
At the same time.
In the taxi behind the black car, Lin Yu stared blankly at Lin Lin as she got out of the car with stiff, awkward steps and followed the man into the Love Hotel.
The shock in his heart was beyond words. All his thoughts turned into just one sentence, “What the hell…”
After a moment, Lin Yu took out his phone, wanting to call the police to report—uh, no—not gambling… but kidnapping an innocent girl.
But wait, what exactly should he report?
What is going on with these two?!
What should he do?
Should he go in?
But he wasn’t here to catch someone cheating. What his sister does doesn’t really have anything to do with him, right…
Should he tell their parents?
But what if it’s all a misunderstanding? That would be even more awkward.
Or maybe…
Wait a bit longer…
And see what happens?
“Hey, kid, are you getting out of the car or going somewhere else? Why are you just sitting there? If not, why don’t you just rush in already…”
The middle-aged driver laughed awkwardly. For some reason, in the rearview mirror, the boy now looked like he got cheated by his girlfriend in his eyes. Clearly, the driver had misunderstood something.
Lin Yu froze for a moment, then nodded and said, “Let’s… let’s get off here first.”
“30 yuan. Sigh, young people these days…”
Even after getting out of the car, Lin Yu still couldn’t figure out why the driver looked at him with that mix of pity and emotion. He squatted down and stared at the entrance of the hotel.
So…
A man and a woman, alone together, going into a Love Hotel. Besides that kind of thing, what else could they possibly do?
………………
Following Gao Liang down the hallway, they arrived at the high floors. The top and luxury area.
Lin Lin froze. Seriously? It’s just tutoring, was there really a need to book such a fancy room?
She tugged on Gao Liang’s sleeve. He turned around, and she asked anxiously, “Isn’t this room a bit… too nice?”
“Pfft. Since we’re only using it for one night, we’ll leave at midnight, it’s not that expensive. I wanted to give you the best experience, so I chose the highest option.”
“Oh…”
Lin Lin nodded. For some reason, she felt a little touched.
This guy… he really thought things through carefully.
But…
‘Giving me the best experience’—why did that sound kind of weird?
They arrived at the reserved room. Gao Liang opened the door with the key card. Lin Lin curiously studied it, pushed the door open, and stepped inside.
“Wow!” she exclaimed.
Gao Liang smiled, closed the door, put his bag aside, and said, “Not bad, right?”
The room was indeed huge, about twice the size of a normal hotel room. The decoration was simple and warm. The curtains and decorations were pink, clearly the style of a Love Hotel. The bed was also very big. Lin Lin touched it.
So soft.
Too bad she probably wouldn’t need it today… cough.
She was very excited while looking around the room, constantly saying “Wow, wow,” until she noticed Gao Liang staring at her. Only then did she stop.
Uh…
She suddenly felt like she looked very inexperienced.
She sat on the bed, looked around again, and tried to sound more professional to save face. “This light feels too bright. Can it be dimmed?”
“Should be fine.”
Gao Liang nodded and went to check the switches. He pressed one button, then turned back.
The room immediately became darker, but what was even stranger was…
Neon lights turned on. The kind you’d see in a nightclub.
The purple light shone on Lin Lin as she sat on the bed, making her look… a bit seductive?
The strong atmosphere and purple glow made Gao Liang instinctively turn his head away. Lin Lin, however, still looked completely confused. After a moment, she finally realized what was happening.
Her face turned red, and she quickly shouted, “What kind of light did you turn on?! Turn it off, now!”
“Cough…” Gao Liang quickly pressed the switch, and the room returned to normal white lighting. “That… is probably a feature couples use.”
“Tch, you don’t really understand either.”
Lin Lin puffed her cheeks, turned around, and started examining the big bed again.
Then, by accident, she pressed a button.
The bed suddenly started to buzz and shake.
Sitting on it, Lin Lin felt her body moving up and down. She panicked, turning her head left and right and shouting, “Eh—eh—eh?! Why is the bed shaking?! Help! Help!”
“Pfft—”
Gao Liang laughed and walked over. Looking at the panicked little cat, he turned the button off and said while holding back laughter, “That’s… that’s the vibrating bed function.”
“Ah…”
Lin Lin sat there in a mess and scratched her head.
This place really is a Love Hotel…
Why are there so many weird functions?!
