Tang Xiaolan saw that Guo Ye was not speaking, so she also fell silent, and the atmosphere became increasingly cold.

  At this time, the knock on the door startled Tang Xiaolan slightly. Guo Yao saw it in her eyes and became even more certain that she had encountered something. However, he also knew that although Tang Xiaolan was gentle and kind when interacting with others, she had a strong personality inside. If she didn't want to say anything, he really couldn't get it out of her. Moreover, although he hadn't told her the reason for coming here because he didn't want to add to her troubles, it was still a kind of polite rejection. In this situation, the possibility of her saying something was even smaller.

  Kuo Yi stood up and walked to the door, while Tang Xiaolan also stood up, ready to hide in the closet at any time. Kuo Yi took a look through the peephole and saw a waiter holding a piece of clothing.

  Kuo I-ming knew and asked Tao:

  "Who is it?"

  "Waiter, I'm over here!"

  "The guest in the next room asked me to bring this piece of clothing over."

  Guo Yi turned around to look at Tang Xiaolan, who nodded and then slipped into a corner that couldn't be seen from the doorway. Guo Yi opened the door, took the clothes, saw they were for a woman, and suddenly understood. He felt a warmth in his heart and asked smoothly:

  "Why didn't she bring it herself? And now you're bothered with it."

  "That young lady checked out twenty minutes ago, she said..."

  Kuo Yi was taken aback, and then sighed with a bitter smile. It seemed that he wasn't the kind of person who could have it all. One came, and another left; they spent only one day and night together, yet they didn't even exchange contact information. Ling Wei didn't even know his real name. Would they ever meet again? And would she be able to help him get through the difficulties at home?

  He closed the door, turned around and handed his clothes to Tang Xiaolan, saying:

  "Go take a bath and change your clothes, you haven't eaten yet, have you? I'll go buy some food."

  Tang Xiaolan nodded, she understood that the clothes were given to her by the girl just now, she didn't want to owe her a favor, but at this time she had no choice. She rushed out hastily, without even changing into clean clothes, and she really wanted to take a bath. Guo Ye turned around and walked out the door, Tang Xiaolan suddenly said:

  "If anyone asks, don't say I'm here, no one should say."

  Kuo Yi nodded solemnly and said:

  "If there's someone else here, my name is Xia Yu, not Guo Yi!"

  Tang Xiaolan was taken aback, thinking that Guo Yao had only come to Hangzhou for a trip or on business, but didn't expect him to have secrets he couldn't share. The two exchanged a glance and both couldn't help but burst out laughing. The atmosphere suddenly relaxed. But soon, Tang Xiaolan's smile disappeared, as if she had never smiled before, her expression calm and indifferent. Guo Yao seemed not to notice, opened the door and walked out of the room.

  Qinghe Holiday is a hotel that offers dining and accommodation, Guo Yi could have called for room service to have food delivered to his room, but considering Tang Xiaolan would feel uncomfortable in the room, he came out instead. Actually, it's also a bit inconvenient, the bathroom glass in this hotel is transparent, although you can't see clearly, you can still vaguely make out the general outline, and the relationship between the two people hasn't reached that point yet, now even less so!

  He walked out of the room and at the end of the corridor, there was a service staff on duty. He went over to tell the service staff, who then called the kitchen to inform them. In the middle of the corridor, there was a relatively spacious area with a coffee table, sofa, and a bookshelf with various magazines on one side, and free fruit on the other side, which was a resting place for guests to chat. Guo Yao sat down there to wait.

  Twenty minutes later, the food was delivered. Guo Ye guessed that Tang Xiaolan had finished washing up and took the food to knock on the door. There was no sound inside, his heart tightened, and he knocked again, still no movement. He stuck his hand on the door, and the dark matter around him quickly gathered around his hand. The internal structure of the door lock immediately appeared clearly in Guo Ye's mind. He manipulated the dark matter while flipping a few springs, and the door creaked open!

  Ever since he went to rob Zhang Decheng's underground casino with Wen Tianhe, Guo Yi had been very envious of Wen Tianhe's skill in opening doors. Since then, he would practice whenever he had nothing to do. After a stint in the Yangcheng Military District, his military skills had improved somewhat, and his control over dark matter had also made further progress. Now, killing people and picking locks were no longer a problem for him. This was also one of the reasons why he dared to come to Hangzhou alone. As long as he could get close to Zhu Zihao, he would quietly take care of him.

  Before entering the room, he had already used the properties of dark matter to scan the situation inside the room and found nothing unusual. After entering the room, his attention extended to the bathroom and found Tang Xiaolan lying in the bathtub, seemingly asleep!

  It seems she's too tired, but she can't sleep in there either, or else the water will get cold and she'll catch a chill.

  Kuo Yeh put the dishes on the table and knocked loudly on the bathroom door. Tang Xiaolan finally woke up, seemingly dazed for a moment before saying:

  "Sorry, I fell asleep."

  Talking but showing no intention of getting up.

  Guo Ye said:

  "The dishes are on the table, although they're a bit plain, but they smell pretty good. You go ahead and eat, I'll go out for a walk."

  "Oh, you, how did you get in? I remember the door was locked and the room card was inside."

  Kuo Yeh smiled and said:

  "As someone in our line of work, we strive for perfection. The structure of a lock is much simpler compared to a micro-sculpture. You don't have the room card, but you can still get in, right? I'll leave first."

  Guo Yi didn't dare to go far, although Tang Xiaolan didn't say it, she must have encountered some danger. Now that she's a free person, she could call the police or find someone for help, but she didn't do any of those things. That means her opponent is so powerful that even finding someone or calling the police would be useless. In Hangzhou, who else besides Zhu Zihao has such immense power? But it can't be that coincidental, right?

  He took out his old phone, turned it on and dialed Zhao Yifei's number.

  "It's me, Guo Yi!"

  "Brother, is that you? Where have you been? I tried calling you but your phone was turned off."

  "I'm out of town and it's inconvenient for me to turn on my phone, how can you reach me if something comes up?"

  "It's nothing, just my dad keeps mentioning you."

  Actually, before Guo Yi came to Hangzhou, he first went to the provincial capital and restored Zhao He's hepatitis B. This was also just a matter of days. For Guo Yi, this was nothing, but for the Zhao family, it was a big deal. Before meeting Guo Yi, finding Zhao He had already been somewhat disheartened because his hepatitis B was very severe and could turn into liver cancer at any time. The proportion of hepatitis B turning into liver cancer is also astonishingly high. Originally, he had a passion to move forward a few more steps, but due to physical reasons, he no longer had the heart to do so. However, after Guo Yi treated him once, he went to the hospital for an examination and found that his liver, which had already become fibrotic, had restored itself to its original state. Even more bizarrely, the hepatitis B virus still existed.

  From then on, Zhao Hetu understood that although Guo Yi couldn't cure his own illness, as long as Guo Yi was around, he didn't need to worry about his body. In this situation, how could the Zhao family not pay attention to Guo Yi's whereabouts?

  After some polite conversation, Guo Ye got down to business:

  "In Hangzhou, apart from Zhu Zihao, there are others with more power and influence. Well, to put it this way, if you offend them, neither calling the police nor asking experts in the cultural field can save you."

  Guo Yi really didn't know how to describe it, after all, he had too little information about Tang Xiaolan in this matter.

  Zhao Yifei was taken aback for a moment, then asked:

  "Brother, your scope is too broad, huh? Are you referring to the first generation or the second?"

  Guo Yixin said, "How the hell would I know?" He thought for a moment and said:

  "You tell me and I'll take it as a reference."

  If I had to say, the most powerful family is probably the Chiang family. However, the Chiang family has always been low-key in their actions and rarely bully others with their power, so their reputation is still quite good. Next would be the Zhu family, which is currently very popular, but you've already excluded them. Then there's the Qiao family, which is wealthy enough to rival a country. Further down the list is the An family, but they're not in the same league as the previous families and are considered second-tier first-line...

  "As for the second generation of ancestors, Hangzhou is the provincial capital of Zhejiang and a place where dragons and tigers hide. The number of second-generation officials and entrepreneurs is countless. Although the security environment in Hangzhou seems good, there are also many shady dealings behind the scenes. However, at that time, Zhu Jiahao, the eldest grandson of the Zhu family, had already integrated the second generation of ancestors and officials in Jiangsu and Zhejiang provinces. These people in Zhejiang, especially in Hangzhou, almost all live with their tails between their legs. If you want to stir up trouble, haha, it's still Zhu Jiahao that you excluded earlier..."

  Guo Yi hung up the phone, grandma, this world is really so coincidental. He had just arrived for less than two days and encountered two girls who were almost harmed, both of whom were related to the Zhu family. The Zhu family was really good at causing trouble!

  Guo Yao knocked on the door and went in, collecting his things and handing them over to the service staff before returning to the room. Since Tang Xiaolan was hiding from people, he naturally couldn't open another room, or else it would definitely arouse suspicion. Thus, what he had to face next was the issue of a man and woman sharing a room together.

  Guo Ye walked to Tang Xiaolan's side, reached out and put his hand on her wrist. Tang Xiaolan was taken aback, but didn't pull back. Although she resented his heartlessness, she couldn't help but laugh:

  "Do you still understand traditional Chinese medicine?"

  Guo Yi nodded and withdrew his hand, saying:

  "External cold and internal heat, the heart and spirit are withered and dry, there's some symptoms of dryness and heat, but it's not serious, just calm down, rest well for a few days and you'll be fine!"

  Tang Xiaolan couldn't help but pout and muttered under her breath:

  "It sounds like it's really true."

  Kuo Yee saw that she was almost back to her original state, and his heart couldn't help but feel a little joy. Tang Xiaolan observed that he was extremely sharp and immediately detected it, his face suddenly turned cold, and he withdrew his arm saying:

  "I'm tired and want to rest, where are you sleeping?"

  Guo Yi knew this was no time for joking around, Guo Yi pointed to the balcony and said

  "I sleep there, Hangzhou's sky is so blue, I can see the stars as soon as I open my eyes, it's also a rare pleasure"
