Chapter 143: Chapter 143

Hua Xiaomo furrowed her brow slightly, but as she stepped into the suite, she was instantly astounded.

She had imagined the suite would only be a few dozen square meters, so she never anticipated that a so-called "suite" here would be a lavish, several-hundred-square-meter apartment featuring a hot spring pool made of natural milky stone, surrounded by countless cherry blossom trees.

There was also a luxurious room, fully equipped with the most sumptuous of amenities.

This really is a paradise for the wealthy! Hua Xiaomo couldn’t help but sigh internally. If it were me, I probably would never come to such a place to spend money in my entire lifetime.

Moreover, three beautiful Geishas, with their high, gorgeous hairdos, were playing instruments and dancing in the corridor.

Seeing the look of amazement in her eyes, Qi Longbing couldn’t help but smile. "What do you think? Isn’t this place nice?"

"Yes, President Qi," Hua Xiaomo replied formally. Seeing this place made her feel as if she had arrived somewhere very noble. Her entire being felt wonderful, and her spirit relaxed. Gazing upon the natural beauty, she felt utterly enthralled. Indeed, she really liked looking at the scenery. Without realizing it, Xiao Mo had already become immersed in the beauty of the surrounding environment.

Qi Longbing squinted. "I see you can’t find the words to describe it, can you?"

"Mm," Hua Xiaomo acknowledged, saying nothing more.

Qi Longbing waved to the three Geishas, who then approached them.

"Help this lady change her clothes," Qi Longbing instructed.

"Thank you, but I don’t soak in hot springs," Hua Xiaomo quickly retreated a step, fending off the hands of the three women as they tried to encircle her.

The action left the three kimono-clad beauties rather embarrassed.

"Heh... then, as you wish," Qi Longbing said, not insisting further. He quickly turned and entered another room. When he came out shortly after, he was already wearing a beautiful, creamy white kimono. The rıghtful source is 𝓷𝓸𝓿𝓮𝓵✶𝓯𝓲𝓻𝓮✶𝓷𝓮𝓽

The wide neckline offered glimpses of his attractive collarbone. His bare feet were reddened, and his uniquely charming, roguish face emanated an aura of elegance and nobility.

Hua Xiaomo shot him a glance and smiled faintly. "President Qi, maybe you should let the three of them keep you company instead?"

"Do you really need to tell me that?" Qi Longbing’s lips curled into a smile.

Then, with a spread of his hands, the three Geishas began to attend to him closely.

This series of actions by two of the women was performed very slowly and gently, giving Hua Xiaomo, who stood aside watching, ample time to appreciate and savor the scene.

Wow, such service must be quite exceptional, she thought.

"Get into the water."

"Yes, Master," one Geisha replied obediently and entered the hot spring.

Hua Xiaomo narrowed her gaze. So the service here is a complete package!

However, a thought struck her, and she could no longer be bothered to admire the scene. She quickly tiptoed to the room, rummaged through the wardrobe for Qi Longbing’s white suit, and retrieved a pair of beautiful crystal glasses from the pocket, holding them in her hands with delight.

"These were a gift from Brother Long; I can’t let this guy take them again," Hua Xiaomo muttered to herself, swiftly placing the glasses into her handbag.

Then, seeing a sofa in the room, Hua Xiaomo decided not to go out. They’re soaking in the hot spring outside, so there’s no point in me watching them—it wouldn’t be appropriate. I might as well just sleep here until my shift ends.

HAHA, that doesn’t sound too bad, Hua Xiaomo thought contentedly. She lay down, crossing her legs in a relaxed fashion, but no sooner had she closed her eyes than she heard yelling nearby.

"Hua Xiaomo, where on earth have you gotten to!" a certain president bellowed from outside the door.

Hua Xiaomo’s eyebrows tightened. She opened her eyes and muttered to herself, There are already three women attending to you in the hot spring, what do you need me for? This is really going to be the death of me.

As she hesitated, a sharp pain shot through Hua Xiaomo’s head.

She reluctantly got up and left the room, handbag in hand.

To her surprise, the three women who had been in the hot spring were gone, leaving only President Qi soaking by himself.

Mist swirled around the hot spring, filling the room with warm, steamy air. The man inside was like an untainted lotus rising above the mire, his skin soaked to a soft, pink tenderness—a strangely beautiful sight!

Hua Xiaomo paused. Composing her emotions, she walked towards him, stretched her face into a smile, and asked, "President Qi, do you need anything?"

"I’m thirsty. Get me a cup of flower tea," Qi Longbing ordered calmly, looking at her.

"Okay, just wait. I’ll prepare it right now," Hua Xiaomo said and turned to leave. But where could those three women have gone? she wondered.

Qi Longbing watched her figure, noting that today she wasn’t wearing trousers but had chosen a beautiful blue suit dress with a white shirt, looking very lovely and pleasing to the eye.

It was a pencil skirt, slit at the back for ease of movement.

Seeing this made the president’s eyes narrow slightly, his aesthetic sensibilities tantalized.

When she returned, Hua Xiaomo was carrying a cup of flower tea. "President Qi, here’s your tea."

She had no idea what kind of tea he liked. Her impression was that he wasn’t fond of tea, preferring coffee instead—it was quite odd that he’d want tea here. Oh well, whatever. If he wants tea, I’ll just bring him some!

"How am I supposed to take it from over there? Come closer!" Qi Longbing snapped. She’s standing so far away, as if terrified of falling into the hot spring, he thought, growing irritated. This woman acts as though she’d die if she fell in the water. It’s almost unbearable.

Forcing a smile, Hua Xiaomo carefully approached the edge of the hot spring and bent over to hand him the cup.

Qi Longbing reached out. Upon touching the cup, he suddenly grabbed her arm and, with a ruthless tug, dragged her, handbag and all, into the hot spring.

"AAH..." Hua Xiaomo cried out as she stumbled shoulder-first, plunging into the hot spring.

Her face and clothes were drenched. The cobblestones at the bottom made it hard for her to find her footing, forcing her to lean against the edge of the hot spring.

Ugh, what a nuisance! How did I end up in the hot spring? The temperature is genuinely uncomfortable. I’ve never liked hot springs; I’ve hated them since I was young. I find the temperature so unpleasant, and this sensation in the water is unbearable. I need to get out.

Qi Longbing definitely did that on purpose! He just wanted to make me look foolish. Whatever. I can’t stand his self-important attitude anyway. It’s better to keep my distance from him.

With this thought, Hua Xiaomo decided to get out of there immediately.
