Chapter 436

Xu Hongdou took them and saw that their home address was the same as Chen Nanxing's, both in a third-tier city in a certain province, and they shouldn't be far apart.

Since they weren't far apart, it would be easy to investigate.

Xu Hongdou glanced at them casually, then handed the ID cards to the receptionist and gave her a wink.

The receptionist understood, registered the two ID cards, and then took a screenshot and saved it in a temporary document.

Subsequently,

the receptionist then held the ID cards with both hands and handed them to the man's mother: "Auntie, please take your ID cards. Because you used Director Xu's employee benefits, the room rate is 20% of the original price. How long will you and Uncle be staying?"

The man's mother thought for a moment and then said: "Three days, let's stay for three days first."

"Okay, Auntie."

The receptionist responded and then said: "Auntie, after the employee discount, the room rate for one day is 1,600 yuan, so three days is 5,400 yuan. The room comes with free breakfast and free buffet."

"Breakfast time is from 7:00 AM to 10:00 AM, and buffet time is from 11:00 AM to 2:00 PM. You and Uncle can enjoy it with your room card. One room is limited to two people."

"In addition, the hotel's gym, swimming pool, etc., are supporting facilities, and you can enter by swiping your room card. I need to tell you that the basic use of the gym and swimming pool is free, but if you and Uncle need to hire a coach for guidance, you will need to pay the relevant coaching fees."

"Alright, Uncle and Auntie, is there anything else you don't understand?"

The receptionist finished speaking and looked at the man's parents with a smile.

And the man's parents were extremely satisfied at this moment.

The man's mother, Auntie Li, even opened the payment code directly and then said with a smile: "Nothing else, girl, take the money."

"Okay."

The receptionist scanned the code to collect the money.

Then she processed the room card and handed it over with both hands: "Uncle and Auntie, this is your room card, please take it. The room number is 26036. Please take elevator No. 3 to the 26th floor, then turn left."

"Thank you."

The man's parents took the room card with a smile.

Xu Hongdou at this time said: "Uncle and Auntie, I have some things to do, so I won't accompany you up. I'll contact you two later when I'm resting."

"Okay, then you go ahead and get busy."

The man's parents turned around with a smile, looking around the hotel curiously as they walked toward the elevator...

Watching the man's parents walk away, stopping only when they reached the elevator to wait for it,

Xu Hongdou shook her head and smiled, then said to the receptionist: "Shanshan, send the pictures to my WeChat."

"Okay, Sister Hongdou."

The receptionist immediately started operating.

Then she gossiped while operating: "Sister Hongdou, looking at this, you aren't very familiar with these Uncle and Auntie, why did you give them employee benefits?"

Xu Hongdou shook her head with a smile: "Sigh, I don't know how to say it, anyway, it's quite dramatic. They are friends of my best friend Nannan, so I brought them to the hotel to stay for two days."

"Also, I need to investigate some things, which is why I had you save the screenshots of their ID cards."

"Okay, it's done."

The receptionist finished, then stood up and asked: "Sister Hongdou, how is Sister Nannan? I heard last time that her condition had stabilized. Will she recover?"

Xu Hongdou shook her head: "It's okay, her situation has been quite good and stable lately, but the possibility of a full recovery is very slim. Nannan and I haven't held out too much hope, it's already very good as it is now."

"Alright, I have some things to do, so I'll go to the office first. When you're free, let's eat hot pot together."

"Okay, Sister Hongdou! I want to eat spicy hot pot base!"

The receptionist responded with a smile.

Xu Hongdou waved her hand, then walked into the employee elevator, heading toward her office.

Not long after,

the elevator arrived at the floor where the office was located.

Xu Hongdou then walked into her office and first sent a message to Chen Nanxing, telling her to wait for her.

Then,

Xu Hongdou sent a voice message to Qin Feng.

And at this time,

Qin Feng was on the playground, watching Hu Yifei lead the students in rehearsal.

Suddenly receiving a video call from Xu Hongdou,

Qin Feng was somewhat surprised.

Answering the video call,

Qin Feng asked with a smile: "What's wrong? Missed me?"

"Mm."

Xu Hongdou responded somewhat shyly. Seeing Qin Feng was outdoors, she asked with some confusion: "Qin Feng, aren't you in class?"

"Break time."

Qin Feng responded with a smile, switched to the rear camera, and then said: "Came to the playground to relax."

"Alright, then you should be free at noon, right?"

Xu Hongdou asked casually, and then said to herself: "I went to see Nannan today. Nannan's state is not bad, and she said she wanted to eat hot pot at noon and told me to call you. Qin Feng, let's eat hot pot together at noon?"

"Ah?"

Qin Feng was somewhat surprised upon hearing this.

Half an hour ago,

Qin Feng had already made plans with Yu Zhouzhou and Zhu Yun to eat together at noon.

At this moment, Xu Hongdou suddenly sent an invitation again.

Considering it,

Qin Feng still followed the principle of first come, first served, and then said: "Hongdou, noon won't work, I've already made plans for noon. How about evening? I'll drive over in the evening?"

Xu Hongdou thought for a moment and then said: "That's fine too. Then Nannan and I will eat hot pot at noon, and we'll decide what to eat in the evening."

"Okay."

Qin Feng responded, but found that Xu Hongdou seemed to have something to say but hesitated.

Therefore,

Qin Feng asked directly: "What's wrong? Is there something going on with Nannan?"

"Mm."

Xu Hongdou nodded and then said: "Nannan does have a situation. Today, Nannan's parents actually arranged a blind date for Nannan, and what's more, only the man's parents came, the man himself didn't come."

"Blind date?"

Qin Feng was also somewhat curious upon hearing this.

Chen Nanxing's parents knew what Chen Nanxing's physical condition was.

Arranging a blind date for Chen Nanxing at this time seemed somewhat magical.

Therefore, Qin Feng asked with a smile: "Hongdou, do the man's parents know Nannan's specific situation?"

Xu Hongdou nodded, and then said with confusion: "They know, and very clearly."

"Moreover, when Nannan first took off her hat and wig in front of the man's parents to show her condition, the man's parents didn't show any surprised expressions."

"Then, Nannan asked me for help, so I took a taxi over. At first, I thought the man's parents had ulterior motives toward Nannan, but the man's parents said that their son also had cancer, it seems like Nannan's, some kind of incurable disease."

"Then, the man's parents said that the reason they came to the blind date with Nannan on behalf of their son was because they wanted to hold a wedding for their son before Nannan and their son left, just to fulfill the parents' wish..."

"To be honest, Qin Feng, when I heard them say this, although I was somewhat moved, I had an indescribable strange feeling. So I stopped Nannan and let the man's parents stay at the hotel for a few days to give Nannan time to think."

"Now that I think about it, I still feel something is wrong, so after I helped them check in, I had someone take screenshots of their ID cards."

"Qin Feng, I took a look, they are from the same city as Nannan, and it's not too far away. So, I want you to help me investigate their specific situation, whether their son really has cancer, and whether they have any other purpose in finding Nannan..."

"Mm, I got it."

Qin Feng responded and then said: "Then we'll have a good chat about this when we eat together in the evening. Also, Hongdou, although Nannan's condition is stable, her body is still very fragile, so you have to supervise her. Even if you go to eat hot pot, she can't eat spicy food, you know?"

"Got it."

Xu Hongdou nodded immediately, as obedient as a child...
