2 p.m.
After lunch, Zhu Sha and Zhou Wenxia decided to go wake up those few hungover people.
The original plan was for Tianming Girl Group to return to Magic Capital City this afternoon, but Zhao Tiancheng had played too late last night and was still sleeping now, so the team changed the flight to evening.
It was about time for them to get up by now.
Zhu Sha and Zhou Wenxia opened the door to the room and, unsurprisingly, saw a bunch of people sleeping every which way on the big bed.
Ge Dongxuan was even sleeping on the floor, sprawled out like roadkill!
Zhu Sha went over and woke up the four one by one.
After Deng Si Nan opened her eyes, she was very confused: "Huh?"
Sha Ling said: "I'm so thirsty."
Ge Dongxuan: "Smack smack."
Yun Qian: "I'm thirsty too."
Zhu Sha handed each of them a bottle of water and patted their faces to help them wake up.
At this moment, Zhou Wenxia was puzzled: "Where's Nan XiangWan?"
Zhu Sha: "!!!"
The two hurriedly called the assistant to open Nan XiangWan's room. When they went in, it was empty.
Zhou Wenxia: "Is she at the gym?"
Zhu Sha: "Let's call her."
The phone rang through, but she didn't pick up...ring...ring...ring...
...
Imperial Capital Martial Arts Apartment.
Gong Jin also hadn't slept well. Yawning, he came to the living room to clean up the mess from duck bones that those two had made last night.
It looked like a crime scene, completely chaotic!
The spicy aroma floated throughout the room. Gong Jin really couldn't imagine how Gu Beihuai was able to stand it, let alone feed Nan XiangWan.
Oh well!
Gong Jin resigned himself to start cleaning. He should get a raise for doing this assistant work.
He had just started cleaning when a cell phone on the couch suddenly rang.
Gong Jin glanced at it - it wasn't Gu Beihuai's phone, so it must be Nan XiangWan's.
He didn't answer it, just casually set the phone to silent, then continued cleaning.
The phone screen kept lighting up with incoming call after call.
...
On this end at the hotel, Zhu Sha was at her wit's end!
The phone wasn't being picked up even though the call was going through.
Zhu Sha and Zhou Wenxia had scoured the entire hotel inside and out.
She wasn't in the restaurant, not the gym, not the pool, nowhere!
Drunk as Nan XiangWan was last night, they were very worried about her.
So the two rushed to Zhao Tiancheng's room in a panic.
The team staff had spare key cards. As soon as they opened the door, they heard deafening snores coming from inside the room!
Zhao Tiancheng was snoring like there was an earthquake!
Zhu Sha and Zhou Wenxia looked at each other in shock.
The sound effects of these snores were like speakers vibrating.
Zhu Sha: "Boss Zhao!"
Zhou Wenxia: "Boss Zhao! Wake up!"
No use, they couldn't wake him at all.
The Tianming staff member looked at the two women, rolled up his sleeves, and said: "Let me do it!"
First he rummaged around in the mini bar and took out an ice bucket and some metal tongs.
Then he marched over to Zhao Tiancheng's bedside, full of gusto.
Reaching out, he clanged the metal tongs right next to Zhao Tiancheng's ear.
Clang! Clang! Clang clang!
The deafening snores stopped abruptly and it was quiet.
Just as the three thought Zhao Tiancheng was about to wake up, they saw him roll over and start snoring again a second later!
Zhu Sha: "..."
Zhou Wenxia: "..."
The staff member didn't seem surprised at all. He walked around to the other side of the bed and continued clanging.
Clang! Clang! Clang clang!
Like that, he kept clanging repeatedly, walking around the bed clanging away.
After clanging for over a minute, Zhao Tiancheng finally woke up!
He sat up groggily, frowning at the people in front of him.
What the hell? Are you crazy?
Zhu Sha seized the opportunity: "Boss Zhao! Nan XiangWan is missing!"
Zhao Tiancheng still wasn't very clear-headed. Hearing this, he waved his hand by instinct, wanting to lie back down.
Zhou Wenxia: "Boss Zhao! Wake up! We can't find Nan XiangWan! She's not in the hotel! And she's not answering her phone!"
Zhu Sha walked right over and started shaking him: "Boss Zhao! Get up!"
Under the repeated shaking and yelling of the two women, Zhao Tiancheng finally crawled out of bed.
He drank some water first to sober up, then kept listening to the two.
After a while, he was fully awake.
Zhao Tiancheng: "What?! Nan XiangWan is gone?!"
Zhu Sha: "..."
Zhou Wenxia: "Gone."
Zhao Tiancheng thought for a bit, then went to the hotel front desk to ask the manager to review security footage to try to trace Nan XiangWan's whereabouts.
Originally they weren't allowed to do this, but after insisting repeatedly, they finally reached an agreement.
The hotel manager would review the security footage first, then report back the results.
So Zhao Tiancheng waited there with Zhu Sha and Zhou Wenxia. Not long after, the hotel manager came rushing back, flustered.
Seeing his expression, Zhu Sha had a bad premonition!
Manager: "You should call the police."
Zhao Tiancheng: "???"
Manager: "The video shows that Ms. Nan was drunk and stumbling as she walked. Then at 2 a.m., she walked out of the hotel's front entrance! Her mind was very muddled. Just getting from her room to the hotel entrance took her half an hour of fumbling around!"
Zhou Wenxia: "We're done for!"
Zhu Sha: "Let me go wake up the others first."
She had just taken a big step to leave when a big hand grabbed her.
This time, Zhao Tiancheng was truly anxious: "What are you waking up the others for? Let's call the cops!"
Zhou Wenxia pressed down Zhao Tiancheng's hand: "Boss Zhao, let's talk in the room!"
Zhao Tiancheng: "???"
Back in the room, the other four who had been a little drunk were now sober, sitting next to each other recalling last night's embarrassing moments.
Sha Ling covered her face: "Oh no, we three actually howled like wolves in the courtesy car!"
Deng Si Nan: "Don't even mention it. We just got louder and louder."
Yun Qian: "I don't have the face to see anyone, wah!"
Ge Dongxuan's face was black: "You all can forget it, but I threw up in someone's car. Don't know if I'll have to pay damages."
As the four chatted, the door opened.
Zhao Tiancheng was pushed in by the two women, completely puzzled and confused.
Zhao Tiancheng: "What's going on? Hey, what are you two doing?"
Zhou Wenxia forcibly pulled him inside while Zhu Sha closed the door.
The 7 gathered on the sofa and stared at each other blankly.
Zhu Sha paced back and forth anxiously: "Listen up. All of you sober up now if you're still dizzy. Go splash some cold water on your face, hurry it up!"
Ge Dongxuan was the first to stand: "I'll go splash some cold water on my face."
Zhou Wenxia looked at the other three. Deng Si Nan, Yun Qian and Sha Ling all shook their heads, indicating they were fine compared to Ge Dongxuan's state.
Next, Zhu Sha looked towards Zhao Tiancheng.
Zhao Tiancheng: "???"
Zhou Wenxia: "Boss Zhao, have you sobered up from the alcohol?"
Zhao Tiancheng: "I'm sober!"
