Two bodyguards protected her very well, one in front and one behind, not allowing anyone to get close to her.
As soon as Xia Xingchen entered the lobby, he heard a noisy sound coming from inside.
"Miss Lan, I'm sorry, your room cost a total of 7,800 yuan this time. Please pay the remaining 7,000 yuan before you leave." Obviously, the person who spoke was the cashier in the hotel lobby. At this moment, his tone was still polite.
"I am your super VIP member. Please put the 7,000 yuan on my order first."
"I'm sorry, Miss Lan, we don't have this rule. Not collecting your deposit last night is already a special treatment for members."
"I was in such a hurry to leave yesterday that I forgot to bring my wallet. I just happened to have these 800 yuan."
"That's not OK."
Obviously, she didn't expect the other party to be unwilling to give her this face and make concessions. She frowned, a little angry, and even more domineering, "I am your super member, and I have spent no less than hundreds of thousands of dollars with you. Why do I need your mere 7,000 yuan? In... two days, I will pay you ten times! Give me my passport and luggage!"
"I'm sorry, Miss Lan, we can't let you go without paying us." The receptionist said patiently.
"Do you know how to do business? Call your manager over here! I want to file a complaint against you!"
Xia Xingchen really admired Lan Ye. He dared to stay in such a luxurious hotel without any money. After staying in such a luxurious hotel, he could rob so confidently. It was no different from being a hooligan.
"Miss Lan." The manager came uninvited with a smile on his face, but what he said made Lan Ye unable to laugh. "We all know that your father, Mr. Lan, was sentenced to death today. The Lan family is no longer the same as before. We feel very sorry and sympathize with your situation. But, I'm sorry, you have to pay the 7,000 yuan in full before you can leave. You may not have that much money now, which is understandable, but you can call your friends to see if there is anyone willing to lend you money."
The manager didn't hold back a single word in his words, and every word made the proud Lan Ye feel embarrassed and awkward.
The cashier next to her laughed softly and said sarcastically, "You have no money but you still stay in our hotel. Why are you pretending to be a rich lady? You really think you are still Miss Lan."
As soon as these words were spoken, all the staff in the lobby burst into laughter, and they looked at Lan Ye as if he were a monkey being performed.
Lan Ye was so proud, even though he had ended up like this, his pride had not yet dissipated. Being ridiculed like this, he would definitely lose face.
His face was pale and blue, and he almost raised his hand to slap someone. The manager was quick-witted and blocked it, but Lan Ye's skills were not something that ordinary people could dodge. The slap landed on the manager's neck without any restraint. The manager screamed "ah", covered his neck and fell to the ground, unable to get up for a long time.
"Manager!" Everyone rushed over in panic.
"You are so overconfident!"
Lan Ye shouted, and when no one else was paying attention, he snatched the passport and luggage away. He then walked out, pulling his things with him.
"Miss, don't just stand there. You can call the police in this situation." Xia Xingchen walked to the front desk and reminded the waiter. The front desk clerk suddenly came to his senses and said, "Oh, yes, that's right. I'll call right away!"
This sound...
Lan Ye paused while walking out and turned around.
When he saw Xia Xingchen, his eyes tightened.
"Xia Xingchen, you must go against me, don't you?" Lan Ye clenched the passport in his hand until it was almost wrinkled.
She took a step forward, opened the message on her phone and placed it in front of Lan Ye, "Did you send me this message?"
"So what?" Lan Ye glanced at her, sneered, and glared at Xia Xingchen provocatively, his eyes somewhat sinister, "I always keep my word. Are you scared, so you come to me in a hurry? I tell you, in the future, I will definitely let you..."
Before she finished her words, there was a crisp sound of "slap". Xia Xingchen slapped Lan Ye hard on the face.
The slap was delivered without any reservation. Half of Lan Ye's face became red and swollen.
How could Lan Ye have ever been treated like this? She put aside the pain and only felt humiliated! Her ears were buzzing and her whole body was shaking. She almost raised her hands to slap back, but her hands were intercepted by the two bodyguards brought by Xia Xingchen. They treated them like prisoners, twisting their hands and handcuffing them behind their backs. These two people were not like the hotel manager, who was just an embroidered pillow. They were all trained in the special forces. Lan Ye would have a hard time dealing with one, let alone two
"I slapped you on behalf of my mother!" Xia Xingchen's nose suddenly felt sore when she mentioned Madam Lanting. She took a deep breath, suppressed the discomfort, and replaced it with coldness towards Lan Ye, "You deserve to be reduced to such an embarrassing state. You are so cruel that you even dare to attack your own aunt!"
Lan Ye laughed, "If she hadn't wanted to send me abroad and leave me helpless, would I have done anything to her?! Come to think of it, Xia Xingchen, my aunt did all this because of you. And I have ended up like a homeless dog today... all because of Bai Yeqing, because of Yu Zeyao!"
When she pronounced the last two names, her teeth were almost shaking.
I really hate it!
Hate it to the core!!
How could I forget the hatred of my father and mother being killed, and the hatred of being deserted by my friends and relatives? The more I loved Bai Yeqing in the past, the more I hated him now.
"If it weren't for you three, how would I have become like this? If it weren't for Bai Yeqing and Yu Zeyao, I would still be the daughter of the Lan family! These people..." Lan Ye's sinister eyes swept over those who had just ridiculed her, making them tremble all over and subconsciously take a step back, "How dare these bitches treat me like this?"
"Lan Zhan has it all his own fault!"
"Yes, my father brought this upon himself! From now on, each of you will also suffer the consequences of yourselves!" Lan Ye screamed, struggling hysterically, his hair all messed up, his eyes reddened. "Xia Xingchen, just wait and see. If I get the chance one day, I will... I will kill Bai Yeqing with my own hands and die together with him! I am not afraid of death, I will die with him! In the same grave! When we go to hell, we will be together! By then, I'll see who can separate him and me!"
"… "crazy…
Lan Ye has gone completely crazy...
Xia Xingchen's lips were trembling. At this moment, the hotel waiter was walking towards the coffee shop with a glass of ice water and passed by her. She raised her hand and poured the glass of water over Lan Ye's head without even thinking.
