Chapter 321: Scammed Successfully

~7 min read 1,331 words

Wu An did not deceive Gu Anran; he opened two rooms.

There is no need.

Opening two rooms was done, but whether to stay depends on his mind.

Take the elevator.

Go upstairs.

The two rooms were adjacent; Wu An took the one near the elevator, swiped his card, opened the Gate, stepped inside, turned his head toward Gu Anran and said, "Rest."

Gu Anran nodded.

Walked to the side.

After fumbling for a while, she finally opened the Gate.

She had never been here before; it turned out she still needed to insert the card.

But after entering,

it was still pitch black.

Gu Anran pressed the switch several times, to no avail.

She hurried to knock on Wu An's Gate.

After Wu An closed the Gate, put down his many bags, he did not leave the Room Gate entrance; unsurprisingly, Gu Anran came to knock.

He was not in a hurry to open the Gate.

Instead he wet his hair, applied shampoo, and put on a bathrobe.

Then opened the Gate.

Gu Anran saw he was already bathing, a bit startled, and asked, "You finished so quickly?"

"Yes." Wu An nodded, his face blank, and asked, "What's up?"

"Do you want to sit down?"

"Come in, I'll be done soon."

Gu Anran said, "No… it's not that; my Room seems to have a problem, no electricity, the lights won't turn on."

"I won't go in then."

"Could you go check for me?"

This Room is like a dragon‑pool tiger‑den; she certainly wouldn't foolishly be a "sheep entering a tiger's mouth."

Wu An nodded and said, "I see."

"Then I'll go over and look."

"If there really is a problem, we'll go to the front desk to change rooms."

Gu Anran nodded.

Wu An stepped out, gently tugged the Gate with his hand; as he and Gu Anran walked to the side, the Room Gate slowly creaked shut with a "creak."

It is well known.

Insert the Room Gate Card into the Room and the power will come on.

Therefore.

When Wu An left, he forgot to pull out the Room Card; after the Gate closed, he could not get back into the Room.

Unless he gets another Room Gate Card from the front desk.

If it's that troublesome…

He is halfway through his shower, foam still on his head, and in such a disheveled state it's inconvenient to go to the front desk.

Then he can only finish washing in Gu Anran's Room first.

Finish the shower.

Drink some water, rest a bit—makes sense, right?

One can only say that, in terms of scheming, Gu Anran is still too inexperienced.

After Wu An went over, he used the Room Gate Card to fix the power, then "unfortunately" discovered he was locked outside the Gate, and he was terribly thirsty.

"Anran, how about I finish showering in your Room first? It's not convenient to go downstairs."

"Okay."

Gu Anran nodded without further thought and said, "Hurry up, finish the shower and dry your hair, don't catch a cold."

Wu An hummed a tune as he went to shower.

"Wash, wash, wash, wash."

"Ah, ah."

……

Gu Anran sat on the bedside, looking around, feeling uneasy; the bed was too soft, like sitting on cotton.

She was somewhat accustomed to the bed.

She wondered if she could fall asleep at night.

Moreover.

It was a hotel, her first stay; even with the curtains tightly closed, she felt insecure.

Her gaze drifted left and right, then she stood up, took out her phone and called the old lady.

After explaining, the old lady understood and said staying was right; there was no need to risk returning.

She was pleased to learn Wu An had spent a lot on hardware.

After they talked for a while, when Wu An left, Gu Anran hung up the phone feeling a bit guilty; she had told the old lady that Wu An was in the next Room and that they weren't together.

"Then… I'll go wash."

After speaking, she walked toward the bathroom.

The corridor was relatively narrow, so she turned her body sideways to let Wu An pass; her arm brushed Wu An, and she felt Wu An was as hot as a furnace, the heat making her heart race.

Close the Gate.

Gu Anran couldn't calm her breathing; after a while she finally began to wash up.

After a long time, the sound of water stopped.

Hearing the door open, Wu An turned his head; Gu Anran emerged wearing a white bathrobe, her face flushed, looking like a freshly shelled egg—white with a hint of red, exceedingly alluring.

"Come, sit."

"This TV is actually quite good to watch."

Wu An greeted with a smile.

Gu Anran walked over and said, "Is that so? Then let's watch TV for a while."

Sit down.

"Why stay so far from me?"

"It's fine, I guess."

"Then come sit over here."

"Just sit over here, just sit over here." Gu Anran shifted her hips; her movements were a bit stiff. After barely two seconds of sitting, she couldn't stay seated and abruptly stood up.

Wu An, seeing Gu Anran's overreacting demeanor, smiled and deliberately pretended to be puzzled, asking, "What's wrong? You seem quite nervous."

Gu Anran picked up the tote bag on the TV cabinet and said, "I don't have any, I just wanted to look at the gold ornaments; I haven't really examined them in the shop."

She took out the box of gold ornaments, placed them one by one on the TV cabinet, and opened it. What started as a casual excuse turned into her feeling an uncontrollable joy as she kept looking.

She ended up unable to put them down.

Wu An walked over, slipped a bracelet onto her wrist, and said, "Don't just look at it; if you like it, put it on directly. It was meant for you in the first place."

Gu Anran replied, "We're not engaged yet; the ceremony hasn't even taken place..."

"Wear it tonight; I also like to see it."

"Really?"

"Yes."

Gu Anran, full of joy, gave her hand a slight shake, and the smile on her face could not be suppressed.

Wu An said, "I'll help you put everything on."

Ring.

Earrings.

And a necklace.

After fastening each piece, Wu An didn't withdraw his hand but gently lifted Gu Anran's chin.

Gu Anran felt like a marionette, able only to obediently raise her head.

Wu An lowered his head and gave a gentle kiss.

After a while, the two finally separated.

"A An."

Gu Anran quickly lowered her head.

Wu An helped her sit on the edge of the bed; the bed was indeed very soft, and when they sat down, they sank deeply, causing their legs to press tightly together.

He picked up the TV remote lying nearby and turned the volume up.

Then he tossed the remote aside.

Gently he brushed Gu Anran's hair behind her ear and said, "The diamond ring styles in the County aren't impressive; after a while when we have time, let's go to the Market to take a look."

"I'll earn more money too."

"Then, I'll buy you a big diamond ring."

Gu Anran shook her head; just as she was about to finish speaking, her mouth was pressed shut by Wu An's finger.

"Don't speak."

"I know what you want to say."

"What others have, you naturally should have too, and it should be better than theirs."

Wu An kept speaking, moving ever closer.

Gu Anran closed her eyes, her eyelashes trembling.

She grasped Wu An's hand, restraining the impulse to dodge.

Women.

Are all emotional.

No one can resist sweet words, especially this man before her, who truly practices what he says!

Gu Anran isn't a materialistic girl, but faced with material things and Wu An's kindness toward her, the combined assault left her unable to defend herself.

She could only lay down her arms and surrender.
