Song Liangjiang ran all the way after she reached the airport. Fortunately, Chu Jingmo’s flight had not taken off yet. She pressed her hand on Chu Jingmo’s arm and panted for breath.

Chu Jingmo looked at the perspiring woman who had appeared and then looked behind her. “Is a dog chasing you?”

Song Liangjiang was too tired to roll her eyes. “I… I want to go to L City with you.”

“Are you addicted to groveling for money?” Chu Jingmo sneered softly and allowed her to rest against his arm to calm her breathing. “Why are you going this time?”

Li Chuan caught Chu Jingmo’s gaze and immediately turned around to book a ticket for Song Liangjiang.

“Wood. I asked my senior brother yesterday. He said that there’s an auction for wood in L City. They have the wood I want. I want to go over and take a look.” Song Liangjiang finally recovered after panting for a while.

However, when she had recovered, Chu Jingmo frowned. “I’ll buy back whatever wood you want. Do you have to go there personally?”

“What do you know about wood?” Song Liangjiang finally found a topic where she could be superior to Chu Jingmo. “Do you know how much moisture it contains? Good wood is comparable to jade.”

Chu Jingmo looked at the little elf in front of him who had suddenly become so smug. She just needed a little swishing tail.

However, he thought quietly that he knew more about the profits wood can bring.

Song Liangjiang’s phone rang. She glanced at the screen before stealing a furtive glance at Chu Jingmo. She hurriedly stepped aside to answer the call.

Chu Jingmo saw the screen. It was Big and small darlings.

Song Liangjiang lowered her voice and answered the call. She was still paying attention to Chu Jingmo and couldn’t help but feel guilty.

“Mommy, where are you?” Little Rice Ball’s cold voice came from the phone.

Song Liangjiang suddenly remembered that it was the school’s summer break. There was a summer break event, and she had promised the twins to attend.

And yet…

“Mommy, you forgot again, didn’t you?” Little Rice Ball said stiffly. Song Liangjiang could visualize his little face right now.

“Mommy didn’t forget, but something suddenly happened. Grandma Lin will be there soon. Can you wait for a while?” Song Liangjiang explained to her son guiltily, “I promise that there won’t be a next time!”

“Mommy…”

Little Rice Ball no longer trusted his mommy.

“Mommy, you explain it to Brother yourself. He has a performance he wants to show you today.”

Song Liangjiang was at a loss. She could imagine her eldest son wailing.

“Mommy, Mommy, are you here?” Little Rice Bun’s excited voice came from the other end of the phone.

Song Liangjiang was speechless.

Li Chuan was reminding her that it was almost time to board the plane. On one hand, it was the wood she wanted, and on the other was her son’s graduation ceremony.

“Aren’t you leaving?”

“Eh? Mommy is with… Nooo…”

“Mommy, if you have something to do, go ahead. I’ll watch over Brother. Goodbye, Mommy.”

Song Liangjiang was confused. What was going on?

Little Rice Bun’s mouth was covered. He thought he heard the uncle’s voice. Was Mommy with that uncle?

Putting away the phone, Little Rice Ball let go of his brother and led him inside. “Grandma will be here soon. Mommy is earning money. We have to be obedient.”

Little Rice Bun ran after his brother. “Mommy is with that uncle. I heard his voice.”

“That uncle is very rich, isn’t he?”

“That’s right.”

“Mommy wants to earn money, right?”

“Yeah.”

“So is it strange that Mommy is with him?”

Little Rice Bun stopped and scratched his head. It sounded right, but it also seemed wrong.

“Oh, right.” Little Rice Bun stopped thinking about it if he couldn’t figure it out. He instantly forgot what he wanted to say and happily followed his brother in.

Little Rice Ball sighed. With a brother like him, what more could he ask for?

“Whose call made you so distracted?” Chu Jingmo asked knowingly.

“No… No one called.” Song Liangjiang walked hastily.

Chu Jingmo scoffed coldly. He wanted to see how long she could lie to him.

When they arrived at L City, Song Liangjiang saw the video sent by Professor Lin. It was Little Rice Bun’s performance. However, there was someone beside her. So she didn’t watch it and planned to watch it after returning to the hotel.

Due to the rumors, there weren’t many guests at the hotel. Those who had already booked rooms had already checked out.

No one came out to welcome Chu Jingmo this time. Li Chuan checked in, and Chu Jingmo led Song Liangjiang upstairs.

Song Liangjiang looked around after entering the elevator. She felt that the silence was a little scary, so she moved behind Chu Jingmo.

Chu Jingmo could see her small movements reflected on the elevator doors. He had assumed that this woman wasn’t afraid of ghosts.

After exiting the elevator, Song Liangjiang followed Chu Jingmo closely. It was too quiet. If not for the lights, this place was ideal to film a horror movie.

When they reached their rooms, Chu Jingmo entered his room and looked back at Song Liangjiang. “Want to come in?”

“Who, who wants to go in? I’ll suppress the evil,” Song Liangjiang stuttered and turned decisively to her room.

Chu Jingmo snorted and closed the door before entering the room.

Song Liangjiang opened the door with trembling hands and hurriedly went in to lean against the door to catch her breath. This hotel gave off a really gloomy feeling. Indeed, one could not have preconceived notions. Otherwise, everything looked scary.

Knock, knock, knock…

There was a sudden knock on the door. Song Liangjiang leaped instantly. “Who is it?”

“Miss Song, it’s me. I’m here to send you some clothes,” Li Chuan said from outside.

Song Liangjiang was wondering if she should change hotels. After all, her life was more important than money.

Li Chuan handed the clothes to Song Liangjiang. “Miss Song, you didn’t have time to pack her luggage. I asked the staff to buy these clothes. Miss Song, please make do with them for two days.”

“Thank you.” Song Liangjiang hurriedly took the clothes. Seeing that Li Chuan was about to enter the room, a cleaning staff walked over and informed that she wanted to help her to clean the room. Their staff had made a mistake. The previous guest had left and they had not disinfected the room.

She didn’t suspect anything and allowed the cleaning staff to go in to clean up. She wanted to stand in the corridor for a while, but she felt that it was a little scary in the middle of the night, so she went to look for Chu Jingmo.

After all, even ghosts were afraid of a man like Chu Jingmo. It was safe to stay by his side.

When Song Liangjiang arrived at Chu Jingmo’s room, he was on the phone. He simply let her in. As for what he was saying, she couldn’t understand at all. She couldn’t even tell which language it was.

She could only look around his room first. She felt that the light in this room was brighter than the light in the room she had just been in, and it was a warm color.

Song Liangjiang was speechless.

Why were the lights different in the room on the same floor of the same hotel?

Would the big boss get special treatment?
