The Big-Shot is Pampered after She Becomes the Villainness

188 Enemies On A Narrow Road

Late at night, Shi Man booked the room Shi Yu and Fang Han had slept in last night. While everyone in the family was asleep, she secretly sneaked out of the Shi family’s manor and checked into the hotel.

Seeing that she had come alone late at night and was young, the woman at the front desk advised kindly, “You must remember to lock the door of the room at night. If there are strangers knocking, don’t open it easily. Our staff won’t disturb your rest so late, so please don’t open the door for anyone.”

Shi Man accepted her kindness. When she paid, she gave her a few more bills as a tip.

The woman at the front desk was shocked. She didn’t expect this little girl to be a rich person at such a young age. She immediately nodded gratefully and said, “If there’s anything, call Auntie using the room phone.”

!!

“Okay.” Shi Man nodded, took the room card, and turned to walk into the elevator.

Along the way, she paid attention to the hotel’s surveillance cameras. The distance from the lobby to the elevator was within the surveillance cameras’ line of sight. However, other than that, the hotel might not have installed surveillance cameras to protect the privacy of its customers.

However, thinking of the rumors about the boss of Nighthawk that she had heard from Sean, Shi Man did not believe that he would be so kind as to think for the customers.

Sean had said that Nighthawk’s boss, Zhu Meng, had just taken over the business. If his father had not died too early, it would not have been his turn to inherit the family business.

Come to think of it, if not for the fact that Zhu Meng was brainless, he wouldn’t have given Hellgate so many resources at once. It could only be said that he was stupid and rich. It seemed that Nighthawk would be screwed over by him sooner or later.

Finally, she reached the door. After Shi Man took out her room card and swiped it open, she habitually paid attention to the movements behind her. Seeing that no one was paying attention to her, she walked into the room and locked the door.

However, she was not in a hurry to plug in the room card and light up the room. Instead, she took out her phone and switched on the ultraviolet light to carefully search every socket in the room.

The first to be investigated was the television opposite the bed. Shi Man was bending down and carefully shining the light on every place where the cameras would be hidden when she suddenly heard a soft sound from the door behind her.

She immediately turned off the light on her phone and hid her aura and figure in the darkness. She narrowed her eyes to adapt to the darkness and waited for the person at the door to walk into her trap.

The person outside first gently tugged at the door handle. Seeing that there was no movement inside, he took out a bank card from his pocket a moment later. After cleverly swiping open the door lock, he stared at every corner of the room with a sharp gaze.

After confirming the approximate location of the person hiding inside, he suddenly stepped into the house. The door creaked behind him.

The two of them held their breaths and stared at each other silently in the darkness.

The man’s lips curled into a cold smile. After his eyes quickly adapted to the darkness in front of him, he walked toward the end of the bed. The moment the palm beside him slashed over, he raised his hand and grabbed her wrist tightly, pulling her into his arms.

A familiar aura assaulted her. Shi Man sneered in her heart as she pretended not to recognize him. She continued to exchange blows with him mercilessly until he was cornered and could not retreat. Only then did she arrogantly press her arm against his neck and tease him with a smile, “President Yi, you lost to me this time.”

“Is that so?” Yi Zheng smiled evilly. Not only did he not push her, but he also casually placed his hand on Shi Man’s waist and hugged her to comfort her. “Alright, then even if you won, I didn’t lose.”

“Hooligan!” Shi Man glared at him and retracted her hand in boredom. She distanced herself from him and turned to insert the room card into the position of the circuit master control. The room instantly lit up. “What are you doing here?”

Yi Zheng stood up and straightened his wrinkled clothes. He smiled matter-of-factly and said, “Uncle Shi asked me to investigate this matter. What about you?”

Shi Man rolled her eyes speechlessly. “You know the answer. Of course, I’m here to help my brother investigate.”

“Oh.” Yi Zheng walked to her side without changing his expression. He suddenly looked down at her innocently and said, “But Uncle Shi shouldn’t know that her daughter came to the hotel to get a room in the middle of the night, right?”

“What are you trying to say?” Shi Man looked at him coldly, feeling inexplicably frustrated.

This man indeed knew how to make her angry. In this aspect, no one in her two lifetimes could be his match.

Yi Zheng smiled indifferently. “Don’t worry, I won’t report it to Uncle Shi. The premise is that we investigate together.”

Shi Man was already used to Yi Zheng’s pestering and could even guess his thoughts. She continued angrily, “And then place all the results I found on you, right?”

“Yes.” Yi Zheng looked at her angry expression in amusement.

It turned out that this girl would unintentionally reveal such a cute expression. He couldn’t help but want to continue teasing her. “After all, you ran out secretly, but I’m doing it openly.”
