The Glorious Summoner-Chapter 43
43 A coincidental encounter at the hotel
The car stopped directly next to the fountain sculpture in front of the Guang Zhou hotel.
As soon as the car stopped, a hotel doorman in a black tuxedo opened the door with standard movements. After paying, Xia Ning followed Xia Pingan out of the car and walked towards the hotel lobby.
Xia Pingan looked at the grand lobby of the hotel, the well-dressed guests coming and going, and the luxury cars parked in the parking lot next to the hotel entrance that cost millions. Xia Ning timidly tugged at Xia Pingan’s clothes and said guiltily, ” brother, isn’t this place a little too luxurious? ”
The Guang Zhou hotel was a chain of five-star International hotels. In a city like Xiang He, a five-star hotel was already the top hotel.
“It’s okay. Didn’t you say that the desserts and the endless hot spring pool here are the best? you can go there and try it later!” Xia Pingan smiled at Xia Ning.
“I heard that from my classmate!” Xia Ning said softly, ” I didn’t say I was coming. This place must be very expensive, Yingluo.
“I’m here, so you don’t have to worry. I’ve never brought you here before, so just take it as you’re here to experience Yingluo.”
Seeing Xia Pingan’s calm and steady face, Xia Ning felt an inexplicable sense of relief and was no longer nervous. Ever since she was young, as long as Xia Pingan said this, Xia Ning knew that even if the sky fell, her brother would be able to hold it up for her.
Xia ping ‘an didn’t bring Xia Ning here purely to enjoy life and to show off his status. He knew that one of the safe houses of the order Committee of Xianghe city was in this hotel.
Moreover, the security of the kangzhou hotel in the country of fire was the responsibility of the Imperial security company, established by Summoners who had retired from the National Order Committee and elites of the quick-response force. It was the safest place to stay.
Xiang He city wasn’t peaceful at the moment. Xia Pingan wouldn’t be at ease if he brought Xia Ning to a place he wasn’t familiar with.
Xia Pingan herself had an identity card as a security personnel of the Empire security company, which she could use when necessary.
Just now, he had brought Xia Ning into the hotel. As the two of them were dressed relatively casually, as soon as they entered the hotel, Xia Pingan could already feel the eyes of a few security guards in suits in the hotel lobby on him. A few hidden cameras around the lobby turned and were already aimed at him and Xia Ning.
Xia Pingan used his ability to ” look ” at the hotel’s security monitoring room. Xia Pingan saw that the security room’s surveillance cameras were showing her and Xia Ning’s faces.
On the security room’s surveillance screen, two yellow data frames were following him and Xia Ning. When he walked into the hotel lobby, the yellow data frame suddenly turned red and issued a beeping alarm. Everyone in the security room suddenly became nervous.
The security guards in the hotel lobby immediately quickened their pace and approached him from several directions.
Xia Pingan looked at one of the surveillance images in the control room. Her body had become translucent, and the outline of the gun she was carrying under her armpit was immediately scanned and identified by the surveillance image. The high-tech short-wave infrared camera and millimeter-wave radar allowed the control room to discover the weapons and other dangerous items hidden on a person’s body through their clothes in the lobby.
At this moment, just two to three seconds later, before the security guards in the lobby could approach, the big data Face Recognition system on the hotel’s intranet had already identified Xia Pingan.
On the surveillance screen, the red number frame that had been jumping with Xia Pingan suddenly turned green, and a special security identification code appeared above Xia Pingan’s head.
The alarm in the security room was instantly lifted. The security guards in the hotel lobby who were walking towards Xia ping ‘an received the reminder from their ear-mic. After glancing at Xia ping’ an from a distance, they naturally turned to other places.
In just a few seconds, an invasion and counter-invasion, crisis and counter-crisis hotel security incident quietly occurred and quietly resolved as if nothing had happened.
The melodious piano music was still reverberating in the lobby. No one else in the lobby noticed anything. The spring water was still flowing. Xia Pingan was very satisfied with the hotel’s reaction.
There was nothing unusual in the lobby, and Xia Ning, who was following Xia Pingan, did not notice anything. Xia Pingan had already brought Xia Ning to the front desk of the hotel.
Hello, Sir. It’s my pleasure to serve you. What can I do for you? ” The sweet hotel front desk smiled and said to Xia Pingan, who was walking over.
“Give me a suite with two bedrooms!” He said.
our luxurious hot spring Suite can meet your needs, Sir. There is a hot spring pool in the room. The price for a day of stay is 3900 Yuan. Do you need this, Sir? ”
alright, give me a room. I’ll book it for two days until this weekend! Xia Pingan nodded and took out his wallet. He handed over his ID card and a bank card.
Xia Ning was shocked to hear that it cost 3900 Yuan for a night here.
brother, are you crazy, Yingluo? ” Xia Ning tugged at the corner of Xia ping ‘an’s shirt and whispered, ” it costs so much for a night here. It’s too expensive, Yingluo.
Xia Pingan smiled and patted Xia Ning’s head, not explaining anything.
Very quickly, the procedures were completed. The hotel front desk with a sweet smile handed Xia Pingan’s identity card, bank card, and two room cards with both hands.
Sir, your room is No. 2388. The elevator is over there, and you’ll reach it after you take a left turn. Do you need me to get someone to bring you up? ”
“Thank you, but it’s fine. We can go up by ourselves!” Xia Pingan smiled and took the items. Then, he handed a room card to Xia Ning. let’s go!
brother, this place is too expensive. A day’s rent is more expensive than our previous month’s rent! Xia Ning mumbled to herself as she walked, her face full of curiosity and pain.
hmm, it’s okay. Just treat it as you’re here to celebrate your new job! Xia Pingan smiled and said, ” anyway, someone will pay for us. If someone is in a hurry to send us money, we have to accept it. If everything goes well, we can go and buy a car next week. Then, we can move to a better place to live in Yingluo.
Xia Ning’s brain was very quick. After Xia Pingan said this, she thought about how her brother had called the police just now and understood a little. However, she still felt that it was a little unbelievable. Her brother was too calm, just like how he would always be in the face of a shameless couple.
......
The two of them had just walked towards the elevator. Before they could reach it, the elevator doors opened. Fang Lingshan’s figure emerged from the elevator and saw Xia Pingan walking over with a young and beautiful girl.
Fang Lingshan was a little surprised. She didn’t expect to see Xia Pingan here. She looked at Xia Ning, who was standing beside Xia Pingan. She seemed to have thought of something as her expression changed slightly.
A man bringing a young and beautiful girl to a hotel, what else could a man and a woman do?
As she was thinking about this, Fang Lingshan’s gaze towards Xia Pingan turned cold. There was even a hint of contempt and disdain in her eyes.
“Ah, Fang Lingshan. What a coincidence!” Xia Pingan had not expected to see Fang Lingshan here and was rather surprised.
At this moment, Fang Lingshan had put on exquisite makeup and was dressed in a fiery-red evening gown that revealed half of her fair shoulders. She was wearing a pair of shiny high heels and a diamond necklace that glowed brightly on her chest. She looked both noble and elegant.
When Fang Lingshan walked out of the elevator, she was like a magnet, attracting the attention of many men in the hall.
“Is this how you spend your weekends? it’s really special!” Fang Lingshan glared at Xia Pingan coldly and said sarcastically.
Xia Ning, on the other hand, was smart. She only saw the change in Fang Lingshan’s expression and immediately understood what was going on. She smiled and took the initiative to greet Fang Lingshan. She extended her hand and said, ” this must be Lingshan. Hello, I’m Xia Ning, Xia Pingan’s biological sister. It’s a pleasure to meet you!
Xia Ning’s words caught Fang Lingshan off guard. She looked at Xia Pingan, then at Xia Ning. Indeed, there was some resemblance between the two of them. Thinking about how she had ridiculed Xia Pingan earlier, Fang Lingshan suddenly felt her face burn. After calming herself down, she smiled apologetically at Xia Pingan and reached out her hand to shake Xia Ning’S. I’m sorry for being rude just now. I’m your brother’s colleague!
“I know. I knew it the moment I saw sister Lingshan. My brother mentioned you to me before.” Xia Ning’s smile was even cuter than the hotel receptionist’s. It was sweet, friendly, and pure.
“Your brother mentioned me before?” Fang Lingshan was truly shocked. She did not expect Xia Pingan to have introduced her to his sister. Women were all curious, especially when it came to matters related to her. Without realizing it, Fang Lingshan’s tone revealed her curiosity.
Xia ping ‘an glared at Xia Ning warningly, telling her not to spout nonsense, but Xia Ning deliberately ignored him.
my brother said that he was the one who chased after the devil Rats with sister Lingshan on a mission last time. Sister Lingshan had short hair and looked valiant. She was beautiful, capable, and had a great figure. My brother even mentioned her to me five times. Isn’t that right, brother? ”
This guy who tricked his brother! 𝘧𝚛𝗲𝘦𝚠𝙚𝙗𝙣o𝙫𝗲𝚕.𝐜o𝓂
Xia Pingan glared at Xia Ning.
Fang Lingshan glanced at Xia Pingan. She had not expected Xia Pingan to praise her in such a way.
On the other hand, Xia Pingan was slightly embarrassed. In Fang Lingshan’s eyes, her embarrassed look was extremely interesting.
Fang Lingshan was cold and aloof to everyone else, but towards Xia Ning, after chatting for a while and hearing Xia Ning address her as ‘sister Lingshan’, Fang Lingshan became very friendly, as if she had become a different person.
Xia Ning took the opportunity to tell Fang Lingshan that there was a problem with the apartment that she and Xia Pingan were renting. That was why Xia Pingan had brought her to a hotel to stay.
As for Fang Lingshan, she was here to attend a friend’s cocktail party. Now that she had some matters to attend to, she had to leave.
Xia Pingan knew why Fang Lingshan had left. It was because it was almost time to light up the lamps.
When Fang Lingshan left, Xia Ning actually managed to get her phone number.
Xia Pingan was speechless.
The two of them watched as Fang Lingshan left the main hall. Outside the main hall, she got into a black Lamborghini and disappeared out of the door in the blink of an eye.
The two of them entered the elevator and Xia Ning started to wink at Xia Pingan. brother, sister Lingshan is not bad!”
“You have a sister so quickly!” Xia ping ‘an directly rewarded Xia Ning with a smack on her head.
