Encounter at Hotel 007

  Zou Xiaohan hastily opened the wardrobe, rummaged through it, and found that Dai Lin's luggage was still there, but she was nowhere to be seen. So she casually rummaged through Dai Lin's things again, pulled out those two long skirts that had already become old-fashioned, held them up to take a look, and let out a snort of laughter: "They're so outdated, yet you still wear them! Dai Lin, how glamorous you were back then, who would have thought it would come to this today!"

  ——

  Dai Lin is looking for a job in the talent market, her slender figure squeezed among the crowds of job seekers, competing with tens of thousands of graduates for a scarce job.

  Her requirements are very low, as long as accommodation and food are provided, salary can be discussed slowly, but every employee is first attracted by her tall figure and delicate face, then frowned at her educational background, thinking that in this economy and society where undergraduate, master's and doctoral degrees are readily available, high school education is too low, and needs to be considered later.

  She then ran to several booths, and hid behind a crowd of university graduates, watching them squeeze in with bloodshed, speaking eloquently in front of the employers, pushing herself further and further away.

  She gradually became a piece of driftwood in the sea of people.

  "Miss Su." Someone walked up from behind at this time, accurately calling out her name. It was the Chinese bank she had just applied for. "Our company has decided to have you interview in the afternoon. This is the address of the interview."

  The personnel department staff of the bank personally ran over to deliver the address to her, along with a new mobile phone: "Miss Su, do you have a cell phone? This is what our general manager has prepared for you, in order to facilitate contact. You must arrive on time this afternoon, there will be many applicants, and our company attaches great importance to employees' punctuality."

  Dai Lin was taken aback by the sudden favor, and it took her a good while to come back to herself, realizing that she had the opportunity to go for an interview.

  At 4 pm, she squeezed onto a bus and headed to the interview location of China Bank's branch. There was indeed a very long line there, all dressed-up young girls, but the person in charge didn't take her over, instead, he had her get on a small vehicle.

  "Dai Lin, don't you remember me? We just met at Xiao Han's place last night." The voice on the phone was Zhe's, clear and smooth with a hint of slyness, "I still remember the you from three years ago, when you were only in your teens, so innocent and lively, full of energy. That's why I often accompanied you home, because I knew you were actually very lonely."

  Dai Lin's heart skipped a beat, the unbearable memories of three years ago and the humiliation from last night suddenly flooded her mind again.

  He was actually Xi Yi, a rich young master who had met last night. During his university days, he interned at his father's company and often visited her home. Now, he has been formally assigned to the company and is known as 'General Xi'.

  "This time my father let me come to the recruitment site for an internship, and then I was officially promoted to be the general manager of the human resources department. It's easy for you to join our company." Xie Yi smiled again on the other end of the line, "Dai Lin, we have a relationship, your father helped my family a lot a few years ago, and we were also classmates. If I don't help you now, when will I?"

  Dai Lianxin hung up the phone with a mix of emotions, but when she got off the car, she found herself being taken to a five-star hotel, where she was about to meet Xie Yi in the hotel room.

  Xie Yi dragged her into the room as soon as he opened the door, with a towel wrapped around his waist and water droplets on his short hair. He stared at her like a wolf: "Dai Lin, do you know how much I wanted you three years ago?! You have a beautiful doll face, a delicate body that's like a ripe pomegranate, emitting an alluring aura that makes me unable to extricate myself! I'm dying for your tender little appearance!"

  "Dai Lin, three years ago you were an unattainable little princess, I couldn't get you! But now, you have nothing, be my mistress, I'll secretly buy you a house and let you work as my secretary in the company, with no worries about food or clothing!"

  Dai Lin grasped his hand tightly, not allowing him to use force on her. She shook her head in disgust.

  "What a farce!" Xie Yi suddenly slapped her, pinning down the struggling Dai Yun with his leg, roughly pulling up her hair, and his eyes were filled with disdain: "Where's your enthusiasm for chasing men three years ago? You shamelessly stuck to Teng Rui Zhe, what did I do to you, aren't you telling all the men in the world?! Go take a look at yourself now, what identity are you? I'm looking down on you, sparing you a meal! Otherwise, who would dare want you, this woman who's been to prison and has a notorious reputation?"

  A faint trickle of blood flowed from the corner of her lips, and tears sparkled in the corners of her eyes. She bit down on the man's hand and broke free, dashing out, but was dragged back after only a few steps...

  In the midst of their struggle, her blood once again stained the hotel's snow-white sheets... only then did he suddenly remember that she was having her period.

  Dai Lin finally had the chance to stumble out of the door, running outside with tears in her eyes and clutching at her torn clothes. Three years ago, Teng Rui Zhe had also humiliated her in a similar way, kissing her, but she had naively thought that it was his love for her, finally willing to turn around and look at her again.

  In fact, this is a way for him to humiliate the woman he despises, making her despicable in the most beastly way. And she loves this wise elder brother, which is also despicable.

  This love made all men in the world think she was despicable and lowly, causing her family to be broken and imprisoned, punished, and no longer dare to love.

  She lowered her head and suddenly burst into tears.

  At this moment, the door of the next room was suddenly opened gently, and a woman had just walked out of the house, turned around to see Dai Yun running over from that end with her head down, almost colliding with her, letting out a soft cry, "Zhe!" Perhaps she was startled.

  The tall and handsome man inside the door was adjusting his shirt collar, with a look of satisfaction on his face after a passionate encounter, very captivating.

  He heard the woman's cry, turned his head to take a look, and saw that Dai Lian's clothes were disheveled, her skirt was covered in blood, and she was running while crying with her hand covering her mouth. His majestic sword-like eyebrows rose slightly, and a hint of surprise flashed across his eyes.

  Dai Lin also stopped in her tracks, looked up to see Teng Qiao and his woman, and found herself face to face with them in the hotel corridor. Her eyes widened in shock, and she took a step back. Then, no longer crying or running, clutching her tattered clothes, she walked quietly forward.

  Xie Yi walked out of the room, dressed neatly. As soon as Teng Rui Zhe saw him, the surprise in his deep eyes disappeared instantly, replaced by thick disgust and disdain towards Dai Lin.

  Three years ago, this rich young master Xiao Yi was always hanging out with Su Daiyan, racing cars and getting drunk, who would have thought that three years later Su Daiyan had just been released from prison, the two of them got together so quickly!
