Chapter 114: Getting Caught Getting a Room with the Older Sister!
They came out of the bar and stood at the doorway.
Su Manyao held her bag with both hands in front of her legs.
She brushed aside her bangs, blown loose by the evening wind, and said coldly, "Where are you going?"
Jiang Cheng hadn't thought about going back to school tonight when he left campus.
He said, "I'm not going back tonight."
Su Manyao suddenly turned her head, "Not going back, where are you going?"
Jiang Cheng was too direct, catching her off guard; she wasn't prepared!
Jiang Cheng rubbed his nose and said, "I opened a studio; due to later work I can't leave early, so going back to school is inconvenient. I won't return tonight, I'll just stay somewhere, and tomorrow I'll go out early to look for a place to live."
It's true that future work hours will make returning to the dorm inconvenient, but that's not the case now; the recording of the Jin Ge Shou program hasn't even started.
Su Manyao turned her head and nodded with a cold expression.
She certainly knew about Jiang Cheng opening a studio; Ye Qing was still someone she deliberately sent to Jiang Cheng's place.
"Then let me first take you to find a place to get a room."
…
Su Manyao had never gotten a room around Modu before, after all her home is here.
She only gets a room when on business trips out of town.
Moreover, when she gets a room, it's usually a suite in a high-end hotel.
But thinking that Jiang Cheng is still a student, she didn't want to cultivate a habit of extravagance in him; as a student he should maintain a student's demeanor.
So she casually looked up a decent-rated budget hotel on a navigation platform.
Then she drove Jiang Cheng there.
On the way to the hotel, Su Manyao was driving.
Wearing high heels while driving was inconvenient, so she took off her heels before getting in the car and then placed her feet inside.
Jiang Cheng glanced and saw that Yujie's legs were truly long enough; the gap between the driver's seat and the steering wheel was almost the same as when he drives.
If her legs were even a bit shorter, she couldn't reach the accelerator.
"Do they look good?"
Su Manyao obviously noticed Jiang Cheng's gaze and, while driving, asked aloud.
Jiang Cheng froze for a moment.
Although Yujie appears cold and aloof, sometimes her words are truly fierce and wolfish.
"They look good," Jiang Cheng replied without hesitation.
Yujie said, "They look good; I haven't seen you look at them in so many days."
Jiang Cheng knew she was referring to the recent cold war between them.
He hadn't expected Yujie to be the one to bring it up first.
Jiang Cheng said, "These days the studio just opened, so I've been a bit busy."
He didn't say what kind of studio, and Su Manyao didn't ask.
Jiang Cheng thought perhaps Yujie's business was quite big, so she had no interest in his small student-run studio.
In fact, Su Manyao already knew full well about Jiang Cheng opening a studio; indeed, as Jiang Cheng thought, she didn't take his studio seriously.
It was just a little studio run by a college student, like a playful pastime.
Su Manyao merely gave a cold chuckle, "hehe."
Then she said nothing more.
Soon they stopped the car in front of a budget hotel.
Jiang Cheng got out of the car first, and Su Manyao parked the car at the roadside ahead.
Jiang Cheng waited for Su Manyao to park properly, then they walked into the hotel together.
At the hotel front desk, three men were checking in.
This combination seemed rather odd.
Upon hearing the door open, those three turned their heads; seeing Su Manyao, their eyes instantly glowed green, scanning her like blades.
They wished their gaze could cut her clothing straps and see through her! The front desk attendant also brightened upon seeing Su Manyao.
Su Manyao acted as if she hadn't noticed, walked to the front desk and asked, "Any rooms left?"
Jiang Cheng stood beside Yujie, feeling a sense of being cared for.
Although that feeling is embarrassing, those who have experienced it know it's really great.
The front desk attendant clicked the mouse a few times, looked up and said, "No more king-size rooms."
Su Manyao furrowed her brow slightly, brushed her bangs, and left the three men checking in beside her feeling distracted and restless.
She said, "What rooms are available then?"
King-size rooms are usually taken by couples, so the front desk assumed she and Jiang Cheng were a pair.
However, the front desk wasn't mistaken; at this point they hadn't reached that level of intimacy, so Su Manyao didn't explain.
The front desk attendant checked again and said, "There's still a twin room; do you need it?"
After saying that, she looked at Su Manyao and Jiang Cheng.
!
Jiang Cheng wished there were no rooms left at all.
But really it was just a fleeting thought; how could the aloof Yujie, Modu's goddess professor, ever get a room with him in this kind of hotel?
Who would have thought that the next second Su Manyao would say, "Then a twin room it is; I also don't feel like driving tonight."
Jiang Cheng sucked in a breath of cold air!
What did Yujie say?
I'm not going home tonight; do you want to stay in a hotel with him?
Then, if the lights really go out later, I won't be responsible for what happens after!
Jiang Cheng silently thought: "Su Peng, brother, I'm sorry, tonight brother is preparing to use one!"
Then he and Su Manyao both took out their IDs and handed them to the front desk.
"Do you always bring your ID when you go out?" Su Manyao looked at Jiang Cheng and asked.
Jiang Cheng flustered for a moment, but then realized his worry was unnecessary: "I originally planned to bring my ID tonight to get a room—didn't I already say that? Tomorrow I need to go look for a place, so I also need my ID."
Su Manyao showed a strange smile; as they spoke, they glanced at Jiang Cheng, then picked up the room card the front desk had handed over and walked toward the elevator.
The high heels tapped a crisp sound on the white marble tiles.
Jiang Cheng followed her into the elevator.
The three men standing at the front desk only then withdrew their gazes.
"This girl looks really lively!"
"Let me stay up all night without sleeping!"
"Not sleeping for one night is nothing; I don't sleep every day!"
…
Their room is on the 7th floor.
Along the way, Jiang Cheng always felt the atmosphere was somewhat strange.
Yujie actually came with him to this kind of quick-service hotel!
Su Manyao, walking ahead and twisting her waist to reveal a gorgeous back view to Jiang Cheng, suddenly said:
"I'm just wearing high heels; my feet hurt, so I don't want to drive—don't overthink it."
Jiang Cheng said: "I know."
After entering the room and closing the door, Su Manyao kicked off her shoes, as if her feet were really uncomfortable.
Jiang Cheng took a look; those jade-like feet were fair and smooth, truly deserving the name "jade feet"!
Each toenail was coated with dark red nail polish, the shape very standard.
"You sleep on the left, I'll sleep on the right."
Su Manyao threw her bag onto the bed and said:
Then she glanced around the room, barely furrowing her brow.
Obviously, the environment here made her very uncomfortable.
But she didn't say it out loud.
Just then, there was a knock on the door; Jiang Cheng went over intending to ask who it was.
But before his hand could touch the doorknob, the door was opened.
Four police officers stood outside and walked straight in.
"Room check!"
