Chapter 38: Chapter 38 Who Did You First Think Of?

The birthday party continued into the evening, and Lin Yuanyuan and Lan Cai had left early.Lin Yuanyuan had booked a presidential suite at the hotel, and she was now lying on the soft king-sized bed with Lan Cai.

Lan Cai tilted her head and asked, "You said you had something to show me, what is it?"

"Knew you'd ask, just wait," Lin Yuanyuan chuckled, climbed out of bed, ran to the living room, and rummaged through a pile of gifts to find a beautifully wrapped box.

Lin Yuanyuan violently tore open the box, then looked at Lan Cai with a mysterious expression.

Lan Cai curiously watched her holding the box and then saw Lin Yuanyuan take out a deck of cards much larger than playing cards.

"What is this?" Lan Cai asked curiously.

"Tarot cards, haven't you seen these before?"

"How do you play with these?"

Lin Yuanyuan took out the tarot cards and said, "These are magical. I spent a lot of money to learn just a little bit. Here, let me give you a reading."

"I don't want to, I don't believe in this stuff," Lan Cai shook her head.

Lin Yuanyuan pouted and said, "Cai'er, you're not scared, are you?"

Lan Cai stubbornly said, "Of course not, why would I be scared?"

Lin Yuanyuan said, "Then give it a try. Tell me, what do you want to know about?"

By now, Lan Cai wasn't as resistant as she had been at the start. She looked at the tarot cards and hesitated for a few seconds before saying, "Then, let's do love."

With the air of someone experienced, Lin Yuanyuan said, "I knew you'd ask about that."

Lin Yuanyuan's hands moved skillfully, spreading the tarot cards one by one on the bed, then looked at Lan Cai and said, "Draw one at random. While you draw, imagine a man in your mind."

"Imagine a man?" Lan Cai frowned and said, "But I don't know whom to think of."

Lin Yuanyuan asked, "Tell me, who was the first man you thought of when I said that to you just now?"

After hearing this, Lan Cai's cheeks suddenly turned red, but she did not tell Lin Yuanyuan. Instead, she asked, "What about you? Who would you imagine?"

As Lin Yuanyuan undressed, she said, "It's strange, guess who I just thought of?"

Lan Cai said, "Could it be Li Xiaoyao?"

Lin Yuanyuan had a ghost-seen expression on her face as she stared at Lan Cai, "You thought of him too?"

The two women caught each other's gaze and immediately looked away.

Lin Yuanyuan was unusually shy as she said, "It's strange; I can't believe I would think of him."

Lan Cai didn't speak, but she herself knew that the first man who had appeared in her mind just then was Li Xiaoyao.

…

After leaving the hotel Li Xiaoyao and Zhao Si went to an ordinary little restaurant, ordered several substantial dishes, and two cases of beer.

After eating and drinking their fill, the two men went their separate ways, and that afternoon, Zhao Si never brought up the matter of San Tiao Alley again.

He knew Li Xiaoyao had his own ideas, and since he was not determined to help, no matter what Zhao Si said, Li Xiaoyao wouldn't agree.

Conversely, if Li Xiaoyao wanted to help, Zhao Si wouldn't need to say much; Li Xiaoyao would certainly help.

Upon leaving the restaurant, Li Xiaoyao received a call from Zhang Meng.

"Xiaoyao brother, come quick, hurry up, they won't let me and Zhuo Yi leave," Zhang Meng's voice carried a hint of crying.

Hearing Zhang Meng's nervous and fearful voice, any drunkenness Li Xiaoyao felt sobered up instantly. He quickly asked, "What's the matter? Meng Meng, don't panic, speak slowly."

"Zhuo Yi sister and I were dining with the marketing manager of Fei Yang Real Estate Development. At first, everything was fine, but after they drank some alcohol, they changed, as if they became completely different people. They're trying to harass us, wuwu~, Xiaoyao brother, please come quickly, I am so scared."

It turned out to be the same partner who had arranged to have lunch with Li Xiaoyao at noon, daring to provoke trouble right under his nose.

After Li Xiaoyao got the address, he said, "Hold on for a few more minutes, I'm nearby, I'll be right there."

The hotel where Zhang Meng and Zhuo Yi were having their meal was not far from Li Xiaoyao's location, a ten-minute walk at most. But now that Zhang Meng and Zhuo Yi were in trouble, Li Xiaoyao put all his effort into running, taking only three minutes to reach the hotel lobby.

Zhang Meng was hiding in the bathroom, shivering. She heard Zhuo Yi's cries from outside.

Zhuo Yi thought this meal with the partner was just a simple business courtesy, but unexpectedly, the son of the Fei Yang Real Estate Company's chairman also arrived.

This chairman's son was in his twenties, quite young, and very lascivious. As soon as he saw Zhuo Yi and Zhang Meng, his eyes immediately lit up with lecherous intent. S~eaʀᴄh the ηovelFire.ηet website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality.

He began to incessantly urge them to drink at the table, trying to inebriate Zhuo Yi and Zhang Meng in order to take advantage of them.

Fortunately, both women were on guard and didn't fall prey.

However, the women did not expect that rather than restraining himself, this rich second-generation tried to force himself on them.

This rich second-generation, named Long Zaitian, which means aspiring to be as grand as a dragon in the sky.

Long Zaitian grabbed Zhuo Yi's hands, pushed her onto the sofa, while all others stood outside the private room waiting.

Initially, when the hotel's waiter heard screams coming from inside, he intended to go in and check, but he was stopped by Long Zaitian's men.

Fearing a big trouble, the waiter alerted the hotel manager, who rushed over. After seeing two tall men standing at the door, even the manager felt apprehensive.

"Good evening, sir, may I ask what happened inside?" the manager asked with a smile.

The tall man gave him a cold glance and said, "None of your business."

The manager swallowed, sensing the menacing aura emanating from the two tall men. He believed that if he forced his way in, the result would be disastrous.

"Let me go, let me go!" Zhuo Yi's screams again emerged from the private room.

The manager heard it loud and clear, and steeled himself to say to the men, "Sir, if you don't step aside, I'm going to call the police."

Upon hearing the manager mention calling the police, the two men immediately surrounded him, threatening, "You can try calling the police, but believe me, if you do, the consequences for you will be very grim."

Threats, blatant threats!
