Li Zhen and Lu Yanming got out of the elevator, and Lu Yanming swiped open the door to the room.
Li Zhen looked around, trying to find the best place to hide a camera.
She hadn't looked closely when they first entered, but now at a second glance, Li Zhen almost gagged.
In the middle of the room was a huge waterbed, its rippling blue lights reflecting off the undulating waves, complementing the dizzying rock music playing. The water sloshed suggestively, highly stimulating.
Before leaving, Xiao Tai must have had quite a few passionate rounds with his mistress, leaving the taste of sticky intimacy all over the room.
Scattered shreds of skimpy clothing lay on the floor.
It was a complete mess.
Suppressing the urge to vomit, she tried to position the camera under the TV set-top box.
Just as she was fiddling with it, there was a sudden "beep" of a keycard unlocking the door.
Before Li Zhen could react, Lu Yanming grabbed her and pulled her into a nearby closet.
The next second, the door opened.
"Baby, hurry and take out the xxx we just bought." Xiao Tai's disgusting voice carried a nauseating musk.
A familiar coy female voice responded, "Oh no, I don't want that. You're enough to satisfy me, I don't need it."
Li Zhen's whole body shook.
That voice!
Zhang Yucui!
How could it be her!
Coming to her senses, Li Zhen quickly took out her phone to start recording through the narrow slit of the closet.
Themed hotel closets were just for show anyway, and the space was extremely cramped.
Especially with Lu Yanming's nearly 6'2" frame, they were squeezed inside with barely any gap. There was scarcely any air left.
Li Zhen lifted up her phone, the back of her hand brushing Lu Yanming's lean, muscular chest as she struggled to hold it up.
She noticed the man behind her tense up slightly.
"Mr. Lu, I didn't mean to, there's just no space." Li Zhen didn't dare use her vocal cords, instead whispering softly.
The blasting rock music in the room drowned out any sounds from outside.
What Li Zhen didn't know was that her whispering was aimed right at Lu Yanming's neck. The soft, warm breaths spraying his sensitive Adam's apple.
Lu Yanming's whole body grew hot. He tilted his head back, but there was nowhere to retreat in this cramped space.
"Mm." Lu Yanming nodded to show he understood.
Li Zhen turned her head back, continuing to monitor the situation in the room.
Xiao Tai slapped Zhang Yucui hard. "Don't want it? Just now you were moaning for me to make you climax, saying to go out and buy something more fun. Stop pretending in front of me, lift your hips, lift them higher, I'll help you!"
Next, Zhang Yucui cried out in ecstasy, "Ah...baby, I love it so much!"
The scene was too explosive.
Li Zhen's scalp tingled.
But then, Li Zhen turned back in disbelief at the man behind her, still whispering, "Mr. Lu, you're...poking my lower back."
Damn! Mr. Lu, could you please control your reactions better!
"Sorry." Lu Yanming's expression was calm, with no loss of elegance.
But his breathing was noticeably heavier, the swirling air scorching hot, instantly heating up the cramped space.
She was already in his arms, an extremely intimate distance.
His overwhelming presence and breaths at her ear gave Li Zhen the illusion of being completely possessed by him.
"Mr. Lu, you're too close to me." Li Zhen was extremely awkward, her hand holding the phone shivering uncontrollably.
The couple outside kept changing positions, moaning filthily!
Li Zhen wanted to go out and slap them both.
"Limited space, I don't mean to." Lu Yanming repeated her earlier words, his large palm grasping her hand and phone together. "Don't shake."
Li Zhen wanted to cry but had no tears.
It wasn't like she wanted to shake! She just had never experienced such a bizarre situation in her 26 years of life.
She was very flustered!
Just as she was at a loss...
Bang!
The closet door was suddenly pulled open from outside!
"Who's there!" Xiao Tai's furious voice exploded. "F*ck, hiding and secretly filming without a flash! Think I'm dead?"
The space froze instantly.
Li Zhen: ......
Zhang Yucui: ......
Zhang Yucui's shrill voice pierced the heavens, filled with shock and terror. "Li Zhen! Why are you here?!"
Li Zhen: What is this situation! She accidentally turned on her phone flashlight!
Serves herself right for being so dumb.
"You know her?" Xiao Tai frowned, sizing the two up and down. "So it's that bitch Qiao Yi who sent you? I won't waste time with you two, you're Qiao Yi's friends? Give me your phones, I'll give you 10,000 yuan."
"10,000 yuan?" Li Zhen almost laughed. "Add ten more zeros and I'll consider it!"
"Filthy bitch! All brazen shamelessness!" Xiao Tai's eyes darkened as he lunged to grab Li Zhen's phone.
But before he could touch it...
Li Zhen, Xiao Tai, and Zhang Yucui all sensed a swooshing sound cutting through the air.
Lu Yanming raised his hand, neatly rolling up his suit sleeve, his long, powerful fingers clenching into a fist that punched forward with the weight of a thousand pounds, moving so fast it left afterimages.
In that instant, the clear, crisp sound of bones shattering rang out.
Chilling to the bone.
Xiao Tai didn't even have time to react before letting out a muffled grunt, his tall body crashing heavily to the ground like a pile of soft flesh.
"Ah!" Zhang Yucui screamed in fright, collapsing to the floor.
Li Zhen mechanically turned her head, her voice pitching unnaturally. "Mr....Mr. Lu, you...do you have domestic violence tendencies?"
The person she had recently been sleeping next to actually had such terrifying explosive power.
Li Zhen was a little scared!
No, very scared!
The psychological shadow of being strangled by Yu Sheng was still there!
"Don't worry, I don't." Lu Yanming brushed off his wrinkled suit, his light eyes behind his glasses gentle and proper, behaving impeccably as always.
As if it was someone else who had just punched Xiao Tai.
"Then what about him..." Li Zhen quivered, pointing at the man on the ground.
Lu Yanming: "He might have a concussion, but it's nothing serious."
That's good, that's good!
"Let's go then." Li Zhen tightly gripped her phone, relieved.
With the video from earlier, Qiao Yi would be able to get everything back, including Tuantuan.
She took a step forward, but Zhang Yucui suddenly knelt before her, wailing, "Li Zhen, please have mercy on me, don't tell anyone else about this, okay?"
Li Zhen stopped in her tracks. "Have mercy on you? Did you think of Qiao Yi when happily cavorting with Xiao Tai in bed?!"
