Gu Ye's movements are very soft and fast. Before Qiao Yang could react, he was kissed on the end of his eyes, knowing that he instinctively closed his eyes.
After his mind went blank, he heard Gu Ye ask him: Do you feel real
He only felt the touch of the man's soft lips at the end of his eyes, which was moistened after wiping it with the tip of his tongue.
Seeing that he didn't respond, Gu Ye grabbed his hand and asked him in a low voice, "...Is it annoying?"
He shook his head: "No, no, it's just a little too sudden."
There is no dislike, and no resistance.
It's just the first time he's been in contact with a man that he doesn't know how to react. I don't even know how to respond to Gu Ye.
On the way back, the two of them were much quieter. Qiao Yang followed Gu Ye's footsteps, but when he didn't come, he was happy and relaxed. His mind was full of the feeling of Gu Ye kissing him.
He secretly looked at Gu Ye's lips with the corner of his eyes, but met Gu Ye's gaze.
Gu Ye has been looking at him.
Joe Yang: …
Gu Ye smiled: Qiao Yang was not angry, just at a loss.
He said, "Then next time, I'll get your permission first, okay?"
Qiao Yang hesitated: "Next time...let's talk about it."
Back at the hotel, Gu Ye first took Qiao Yang back to the room. After the two said to each other that they would see each other tomorrow, Gu Ye reluctantly left.
After Qiao Yang returned to the room, Liu Wen greeted him and asked strangely, "Young Master Qiao, did you drink with President Gu just now?"
Joe Yang: Huh
Only then did he realize that his face was... very red.
Really worthless.
He fooled around with a hum, walked to the window and let the night wind in the mountains blow away his hot face, calming down his fast-beating heart and swollen brain.
Liu Wen earnestly reported the hotel management knowledge he had learned today, and finally said:
"I checked the guest check-in situation tonight with Manager Xie just now, and found a very special guest."
"It's either a bunch of friends or families with kids. Only one guest comes alone."
"The cheapest room he booked, not only did he not call for any room service and catering services, but he did not even make reservations for any entertainment items."
He asked: "Did you come to the resort for hundreds of kilometers? Just to sleep for one night?"
The high-end resort and entertainment hotel developed by Trader Joe's is not cheap even for the cheapest room for a night.
Qiao Yang also had doubts and asked him, "What's the guest's name and which room is he staying in?"
Liu Wen: "The guest's name is Liu Ming. The name is very similar to mine, and I remember it at a glance. The room is the most corner room on the fourth floor."
Qiao Yang: "Maybe I just want to relax by myself, or just to climb the mountain? Anyway, let the room service staff pay attention to him."
Liu Wen: "Yes."
At the same time, Gu Ye received a call from Geng Hui: "Mr. Gu, the surveillance camera on the expressway showed that the last place where Liu Ming's car disappeared is the only intersection leading to Qingshan Resort."
He was a little anxious: "If there is no accident, this person should also go to the resort where you and Qiao Shao are."
"what!"
Gu Ye's expression turned cold immediately.
A person who is short of money, has three patients and a child to take care of at home, how can he have the time and mood to take a vacation.
This person has been following from the urban area of S City until here. His goal is either Qiao Yang or himself.
Gu Ye's face was calm and his voice was calm: "I see."
Geng Hui: "I have already dispatched a helicopter and called a few bodyguards to rush to the resort to find you. You must pay attention to safety."
After hanging up the phone, Gu Ye called Qiao Yang, trying to keep his voice as soft and calm as possible, and asked him, "Did you sleep?"
Qiao Yang: "Not yet."
Gu Ye asked, "Can you ask Manager Xie to check to see if there is a guest named Liu Ming among the guests staying tonight."
Joe Yang: ? ?
He became vigilant: "Yes! Liu Wen told me just now that he is a little weird, is there something wrong?"
Gu Ye immediately went out, and his soft voice immediately became cold: "This person followed us all the way. Call Manager Xie and the security guards to round the room immediately."
Qiao Yang: "Yes! Are you going to call the police now?"
Gu Ye: "Yes!"
When Manager Xie checked the guest's check-in information with Liu Wen, he felt that the guest was a little strange. After receiving the call from Qiao Yang, he didn't even think about bringing the spare room card and called the security personnel to the fourth floor.
Qiao Yang and Gu Ye were already waiting at the door.
Manager Xie pressed Liu Ming's doorbell three times before the other party answered. A hoarse voice came: "What's the matter?"
Manager Xie: "Hello sir, I'm sorry to disturb your rest at such a late hour. We found that the air-conditioning system in your room is faulty, so I'll check it out for you."
Liu Ming: "It's okay, no need."
Cut off the doorbell.
Gu Ye and Qiao Yang, who were hiding aside, looked at each other, almost shouting to Manager Xie together, "Open the door directly."
Manager Xie hesitated for a moment, then gritted his teeth and opened the door.
In an instant, the pungent smoke rushed out as the thick door opened.
Manager Xie exclaimed, "He's setting fire!"
He shouted to the security guard beside him: "Take the fire extinguisher and turn on the fire hydrant! Quick!"
Qiao Yang and Gu Ye had already rushed in.
The bed in the room had been lit, but fortunately the fire was not big, but the sealed room was filled with choking smoke.
The man who was slumped on the sofa stood up but swayed with a sense of powerlessness, but struggled with all his might, and asked, "What are you... doing?"
Gu Ye stepped forward and directly controlled Liu Ming, dragging him out.
He shouted to Qiao Yang and Manager Xie: "Call the doctor and contact the hospital, and send the hotel helicopter to take the person there. It doesn't look like he was choking on the smoke, he took some medicine!"
The hotel's security guards are well-trained in emergency situations. They quickly turned on the fire hydrants and fire extinguishers in the corridors and put out the fire that was not burning in a few minutes.
The resident doctor in the hotel gave Liu Ming vomiting and first aid. But Liu Ming didn't cooperate throughout the whole process. He struggled with his remaining strength, and with still consciousness, he kept crying and shouting: "Let me die, let me die..."
Doctors found a large amount of undigested white tablets in his vomit, which was Valium.
After the fire in the room was extinguished, when Manager Xie checked the fire alarm in Liu Ming's room, he found that the alarm had been destroyed in advance.
Therefore, there is no perception of a room full of smoke.
Liu Ming's intentions are already obvious: he wants to commit suicide by swallowing Anmian, and then pretend to be killed by an accidental fire.
Put all the blame on the Trader Joe's resort hotels.
After the helicopter took Liu Ming to the contacted hospital, the hotel finally quieted down.
Everyone seemed to be in a life-and-death struggle, but it took less than 20 minutes before and after.
Qiao Yang said to Manager Xie, "Bring your staff to explain the situation to every guest staying tonight, give each person an apology gift, and check the fire alarms and suspicious points in each room by the way."
Manager Xie was about to do the same, "Yes."
After arranging everything, when he returned to the room, Qiao Yang found that his nervous fingertips were still softening.
If it wasn't for Gu Ye who discovered Liu Ming's stalking in advance and kept investigating his situation, or if Liu Wen and Manager Xie paid attention to this suspicious guest.
Tonight a person's life will end quietly in this hotel.
Gu Ye took his hand and comforted him softly: "Don't worry, the doctor said just now that Liu Ming won't die with this dose."
Qiao Yang nodded and asked inexplicably, "Why did he commit suicide, and why did he come here to choose this way?"
Gu Ye: "Probably because of lack of money."
He told Qiao Yang about Liu Ming's family situation that Geng Hui found out.
He added: "If he died here because of the fire, his family would condemn the hotel's mismanagement."
"In the face of human life, the hotel's position is very weak. Whether it is the hotel's responsibility or not, he will give his family a large sum of pacification and compensation in order to make matters less important."
"But there are still doubts." Gu Ye said:
"First, if this person just wanted to find a good hotel to commit suicide and get compensation, why did he start stalking us from city s?"
"Secondly, he can track us, which means he knows our itinerary. Why would a restaurant examination manager who has nothing to do with us know what kind of car, where we live, and where we're going?"
Qiao Yang's heart sank, and he asked cautiously, "Could it have something to do with Li Songran?"
After Liu Ming swallowed sleeping pills, he turned off the fire alarm and set fire to it. If this method of death does not autopsy the body, it is impossible to judge that the person committed suicide by swallowing medicine.
All blame will only be mismanagement of the hotel. The method of making Qiao's reputation gradually deteriorate is very similar to what Li Songran can do.
Gu Ye: "I don't know this yet. If Liu Ming wakes up and asks him, it depends on whether he is willing to say it."
"The question now is, even if he is related to Li Songran, where did they get the news about us coming to the resort together?"
"Who have you told our itinerary?"
Qiao Yang looked aside: "No one knows except Liu Wen."
He came back by helicopter, but the helicopter was fast but uncomfortable. It happened that Gu Ye was also coming to the resort, so he temporarily decided to drive with him.
He didn't tell anyone, even Qiao Jin called after he and Gu Ye left for a long time when he realized that he didn't use the helicopter.
Gu Ye immediately glanced at Liu Wen with his scrutinizing eyes.
Liu Wen: ? ? ! ! !
He panicked: "No, it's not me, I didn't tell anyone!"
He was aggrieved and anxious to explain: "How could I casually disclose the boss's schedule, let alone to Li Songran and the others!"
Qiao Yang: "It won't be him."
In the original text, Liu Wen did not participate in framing the Qiao family, and was very loyal to the original owner. Even after the event, he took care of the funeral for the original owner. He was sure that Liu Wen would not harm him and the Qiao family.
Gaining Qiao Yang's trust, Liu Wen stood beside Qiao Yang gratefully and aggrieved, dissatisfied with Gu Ye who questioned him: "You, you have also told the people around you, maybe it's the people around you? ?"
Gu Ye was already thinking about and excluding the people around him. The news that he was going on vacation, Geng Hui, was known to the secretary and the senior management of the Gu family.
Qiao Yang's analysis: "The other party is from Qiao's house, and it will not be the person next to Gu Ye."
Liu Wen didn't dare to question any more, but he was the most suspicious, even his name was similar to Liu Ming.
He looked at Qiao Yang and explained again: "It's really not me, and I didn't tell anyone that you were coming here."
"I didn't say it was you."
Qiao Yang slapped him on the arm.
He asked Gu Ye again: "Is it possible that someone's cell phone or communication between us was monitored?"
Liu Wen: ! !
so scary? !
Gu Ye also thought of this level, "From now on, let's not use mobile phones and computers to communicate with the outside world. I will notify people from the company's technical department to come and check our mobile phones."
After that, Qiao Yang used the hotel's landline to report to Qiao Jin what happened tonight.
Qiao Jin angrily wanted to curse, "If someone deliberately wants to blacken our Qiao's reputation, then Liu Ming committed suicide in Qingshan Resort, and other guests in other resorts may have committed suicide."
"Have the police obtained evidence? I asked reporters to write news reports and issued a news statement in advance that we are the victims, and they will never succeed!"
"I'll inform you right now and put all the hotels belonging to the Qiao family on alert. You have to be careful."
After hanging up, Qiao Yang was still uneasy, so he called Su Cheng again.
Su Cheng comforted him: "Tonight's event is very thrilling. Fortunately, you found it in time."
"Don't worry too much. I will let my staff continue to check people related to Li Songran. It's getting late tonight, so you should rest early."
Qiao Yang couldn't sleep, sitting on the sofa in the room thinking.
He was thinking about the ending of the Qiao family in this novel.
Qiao Yang committed suicide, and the Qiao family fell.
The Qiao Group has sold all its properties and still can't fill its huge debts, and its reputation has been cast aside by the world.
He thought he could change the fate of the Qiao family by giving up the bid for Qifeng Terrace.
Unexpectedly, the person who wanted to harm the Qiao family in the original book did not give up. Now I don't know how many people are hiding in the shadows and staring at Qiao's house, waiting to jump up and take a bite at any time.
Gu Ye quietly sat close to him and shook his hand again: "Don't worry, the foundation of the century-old Qiao family cannot be destroyed by just a few people."
"When the news of Liu Ming comes out, even if there are other suicides, it will not have a big impact on the Qiao Group."
"And you have to believe in the ability of Uncle Qiao and your eldest brother and second brother. They will definitely be able to prevent these things from happening. Li Songran and others will not be their opponents at all."
He scratched Qiao Yang's palm lightly: "Besides, isn't it still me?"
When Qiao Yang met Gu Ye, who was smiling softly, he also squeezed out a slightly reassuring smile: "Well."
Liu Wen: ? ?
Two people holding hands
Isn't it friends, friends can hold hands
Look at the two people who are close to each other: they are deeply affectionate, they look at each other and smile, and this time there is a tenderness in their eyes.
Liu Wen: …
What did he miss? !
Why is he so slow, why doesn't he know that the boss is in a relationship with President Gu
It's no wonder that Gu Ye is always sent to work today, because he doesn't have long eyes to be a light bulb in front of the two of them.
Liu Wen backed away quietly, backed into his own room and closed the door. He decided not to come out tonight to die.
The living room with only two people became very quiet again, and the clock on the wall showed that it was two in the morning.
Gu Ye shook his hand and asked, "Don't just sit still, go to sleep."
Joe Yang nodded and hummed.
Gu Ye still held his hand and said, "Do you want me to accompany you tonight?"
Seeing Qiao Yang's slightly surprised eyes, Gu Ye quickly added: "I don't do anything, I'll just stay with you."
He looked at Qiao Yang with a deep look in his eyes, and asked in a low voice again, "...do you want me?"
