Chapter 4 - Angry

8:01 am

A ray of sunlight crosses over Shi Lian's face making her wake from her dreamy sleep. Rubbing her eyes, she examines her surroundings and she has no idea what happened last night. Right then she feels that she is not alone in the bed; she snaps her head to her left and sees a strange man lying beside her. The man is lying naked and is snoring lightly. She then notices her body and finds she is also naked. She starts panicking; a complete horrifying expression takes over her face. Her body is aching badly, red marks all over her body. She rubs her temples in frustration, a vague image bubbles up of yesterday's night. She was not expecting herself to be like this, like a whore. "Shit!" she curses in her breath. She looks at her phone grabbing it from the nightstand beside her. Over 100+ missed calls and texts all from Evelyn.

"Damnit!" she curses again. She takes a glance again at the man, even though she finds him attractive she hates him.

"I don't even remember how I ended up here in this hotel with this man?" she complains. 

'There's no time regretting. I need to get the hell out of here now!" she thought to herself. She got up frantically, wearing her last night's dress but the dress is torn from the back. She wants to beat this man for doing this to her but she knows it was her who took the initiative first. She cannot go like this so she grabs Fu Zi Chen's shirt, which was lying on the floor. She wears it over her dress and straps her heels on.

"Don't ever show up in front of me, jerk!" she says through her gritted teeth to the man, Fu Zi Chen who is still sleeping. Her purse is placed on the sofa, she strides over to take it and leave the room hastily without looking back.

On her way to the exit, the blond-haired receptionist asks, "Excuse me, ma'am! May I know your room number?" her voice is plain without any hint of mocking. Shi Lian rolls her eyes; she does not even know the room number.

"Ask the man who brought me here last night," she says coldly. The receptionist gets intimidated by her and just nods. She then remembers her from last night.

"Oh, I remember her! She came with that handsome man last night. She was wearing a men's shirt just now so…..." she thinks and her nose starts bleeding from her lustful thinking. She shakes her head and focuses on her work.

"Where the hell are you? Do you know how worried I am? Wait…have you already flown to China?" Evelyn lectures her from the other line. Shi Lian was not going to pick up her call but it kept ringing since the morning she left the hotel.

"Chill! I am fine. I am coming over to your place. I will tell everything, alright?" Shi Lian informs her.

"You better!" her best friend announces. Ending the call, Shi Lian takes the cab across the road. She hops in. "Where would you like to go, miss? The 50-year-old driver asks politely.

"To Walmart street, xxxxxx," she notifies him. As the drive goes, she realizes that she had a flight today and it is in 2 hours! The man's shirt she is wearing is making her more furious. She wants to rip the shirt but she cannot. She is barely standing that man's cologne on the shirt.
