Wang Qi glanced at Guo Xuyang and said, "You're not giving me directions, how am I supposed to know which hotel to go to?"
"Just keep going straight down this road. There's a four-star hotel on the right. I forgot its name. Just pull over when you get there." Guo Xuyang said with his eyes closed.
"You're quite the connoisseur." Wang Qi commented again. This time, however, Guo Xuyang didn't respond. He truly didn't want to deal with her; her words were always so sarcastic. If she weren't pretty, he wouldn't even spare her a second glance, let alone offer her shelter.
"We're here, is this the hotel?" Wang Qi called out.
"So soon? I haven't even had a chance to rest yet."
"Where were you last night? Did you crawl into some other woman's bed again?"
"Girls shouldn't be so loose-lipped, alright?"
"I'm being quite reserved, actually. At least I say what I mean, unlike some people who hide and sneak around."
Guo Xuyang, too lazy to argue with her, got out of the car and headed for the lobby. "Where is it?" he asked, calling Li Minyu.
"Lying in the room. Why are you calling me now?" Li Minyu replied.
"I'm bringing two companions for you. I'll be up shortly."
"Companions? Wait a moment, it's a bit messy here."
"What are you afraid of if it's messy? I'll be up right away." Guo Xuyang hung up the phone and said to Zhan Yifang and Wang Qi, who were following him, "Come with me."
"If you leave us here, how will we eat?" Wang Qi asked.
"You won't starve in a hotel," Guo Xuyang said, a little annoyed. "Besides, I'm not restricting your freedom. You can go wherever you please. Jun Yue Lai restaurant has already been arranged for you. You can eat there and then come back to rest."
"Isn't it inappropriate for the three of us to share a room?"
"Who said the three of you would be in one room? I'm bringing you up to meet someone. We'll get rooms for you later. Do you have your IDs?"
"We should keep them on us. How many rooms should we get?"
"Can the two of you share a room?" Guo Xuyang asked.
"What's inappropriate about that?"
"If I come to stay, will you hide, or will Zhan Yifang hide?"
"We've been together before, what's there to be afraid of?" Guo Xuyang was taken aback by Wang Qi's bold words and found himself looking at her with newfound respect. Although he was surrounded by many women, they rarely spent time together. He hadn't expected Wang Qi to be so uninhibited. But then again, she had returned from abroad, so she must have been influenced by foreign ideas.
"Then, one room?" Guo Xuyang said.
"One room is fine, Wang Qi doesn't have to live outside permanently. If she's always away, who knows how messy things will get at home?" Zhan Yifang said. "However, if it's a long-term stay, two rooms would be better, as it might be inconvenient to share."
The three of them went upstairs as they talked. "Open the door," Guo Xuyang called out after knocking.
"Coming," Li Minyu said, opening the door from the inside.
"Let me introduce you. This is Zhan Yifang, and that's Wang Qi. They'll be your companions from now on," Guo Xuyang said to Li Minyu.
"Who are they?"
"I found two younger sisters for you."
"Scumbag. Aren't you satisfied yet?" Li Minyu cursed directly.
"Does your family know?"
"Not yet. Otherwise, I wouldn't have let them come here to live. They can keep you company."
"How did the two of you, so young, get tricked by him?" Li Minyu asked, looking at them.
"He's a complete scumbag. You'll know how much of a scumbag he is when you follow him. You won't even see him every day."
"They already know. You'll have opportunities to chat with them later. Have you eaten?" Guo Xuyang asked.
"I'm not hungry. I didn't want to eat alone."
"Get yourselves sorted. We're going out to practice street performances."
"I'm not going. You've made me too angry." Li Minyu walked back into the room.
"I notice that any woman dares to lose her temper with you?" Wang Qi said, relishing the drama.
"You two can stay in this room, or you can open another one."
"You didn't mention she was staying in the presidential suite, did you?" Wang Qi took a couple of steps inside and looked at Zhan Yifang. "This room is quite large. Why don't we stay together? It'll be convenient to chat when we get back."
"I have no objections. You don't stay here every day anyway," Zhan Yifang said.
"If it gets too noisy with 'that' happening, we won't be able to sleep," Wang Qi said.
"Let's open another room then, to avoid any arguments," Guo Xuyang said.
"How much is this room?" Wang Qi asked.
"I don't know, I forgot. Why?"
"You can save the money for opening rooms and give it to us."
"What's a little money like that? If you're short on cash, you can ask me."
"Then transfer tens of thousands to me first. So Fangfang and I can go buy some nice clothes."
"What are you talking about?" Zhan Yifang glared at her.
"You know what I'm talking about?" Wang Qi chuckled.
"Cut it out. I think watching those adult films has muddled your brain," Zhan Yifang said with a laugh and a scolding tone.
"Isn't that more romantic? Besides, I don't even know what it's like to be with a man. You have to let me be a normal woman at least once." Guo Xuyang finally understood. Wang Qi was truly something else. The "nice clothes" she mentioned were definitely the kind that appealed to men. And Zhan Yifang wasn't some pure maiden either. It seemed she'd watched her share of adult films. No wonder Wang Qi could utter such shocking words; it was all the fault of those films. But he liked it.
"Give me your card number. I'll transfer a million to you first. If it's not enough, tell me, and I'll transfer more." Guo Xuyang said.
"So generous, have I met a rich man?" Wang Qi teased.
"If that's the case, Fangfang and I will go buy more. We'll give you a royal treatment."
"That would be great. If I'm satisfied, your allowance will be doubled when I return."
"I knew following you wouldn't be a loss. Remember, from today onwards, I'm yours. Don't let anyone bully us," Wang Qi said, glancing at the room inside.
"The women around me get along very well. I hope you two will be no exception," Guo Xuyang said, then called out loudly again, "Li Minyu, let's go downstairs to eat."
"I'm not going. You guys go. Xiao Bao is restless in my belly." Li Minyu's voice came from inside.
"It seems she's quite resistant to us," Wang Qi whispered.
"Perhaps she can't accept you yet. It's alright, she'll get used to it over time."
"Is the child in her belly also yours?"
"Is there a problem?"
"Then you're saying you have twenty or thirty women isn't true, is it?"
"You don't believe me when I tell the truth, so what should I do?"
"No wonder she's so angry. Who wouldn't be angry? Even if you had one woman a day, you'd only get to her once a month. No wonder she says she never sees you!"
"What are you talking about? They don't live together. Let's go down. We can bring her something to eat when we come back." Guo Xuyang said, then turned and walked out.
