Hence, the ground was extremely slippery where there was detergent .
The sign had been meant to give warning about the slippery floor .
Sun Linan had stepped on the slippery area and fallen flat on his face .
His clothes were soiled, and in addition… why did the dirt on the ground smell weird?
Like…
Just at that point, the cleaner returned and hurried towards Sun Linan . “Sir, are you okay? Let me help you up!”
With the cleaner’s help, Sun Linan pushed himself up . “What on earth is this?”
The cleaner replied, “… A customer had too much to drink and has just thrown up . ”

“Ugggh!” he gagged . On hearing this, Sun Linan almost threw up .
The smell on him was too much and he quickly removed his jacket . But there was puke on his trousers too .
He couldn’t possibly remove his trousers as well .
He gritted his teeth with anger . “If someone had too much to drink, then you guys ought to have cleaned up properly!”
“This- I- I had just mopped it once and went to get a refill of clean water . ”
“Well then put up a sign of warning, for goodness’ sake!” Sun Linan hollered angrily, “Your hotel is so irresponsible!”
The cleaner was on the verge of tears . “I did put up a sign . It’s true . See? Here it is . ”
Sun Linan’s gaze followed the direction that the cleaner was pointing at and eventually fell on the sign . It had originally been placed in a conspicuous location, but somehow it had gotten moved to the side .

“Crap! Who has been so unethical!?”
Qiao Lian was feeling uneasy, sitting alone in the private room .
Shen Liangchuan and Sun Linan had both gone to the washroom . Given Sun Tzi’s personality, would there be trouble?
But there was nothing she could do . She couldn’t possibly walk into the male washroom .
As she was considering her options, the private room’s door was swung open and Shen Liangchuan walked in .
Qiao Lian quickly studied his expression in search of any signs of anger .
The verdict was…

He looked calm . There was no sign of gloom at all .
So had anything happened while the two men had gone to the washroom?
She looked in the direction of the doorway awkwardly . No Sun Linan . Unable to wait any longer, she asked, “Where’s Sun Linan?”
“He was behind me . ”
Qiao Lian nodded as Shen Liangchuan continued, “But I think he might not be coming back in . ”
Right after these words, his cell phone rang .
He took a look at the phone screen and raised an eyebrow . After picking up, he put the call on speaker and placed the cell phone on the table .
“Xiao Lian…” it was Sun Linan’s voice on the other end .
Qiao Lian was surprised . “Yes?”
“I suddenly remembered that I need to attend to an urgent matter, so I’ll have to leave first . But we’ve agreed… to meet up again tomorrow . ”
“What?”
Qiao Lian was stupefied and lifted her gaze to glance at the calm and collected Shen Liangchuan . For some reason she felt a little anxious . “Are you okay?”
“… No problem! What could have possibly gone wrong? I’m perfectly fine . I’ll leave now and look for you at the news agency tomorrow, bye!”
After he said these words, he hung up .
Qiao Lian thought, “What exactly had happened?”
“What could have happened?” thought Shen Liangchuan . “How would he dare appear before her in soiled clothes?”
Of course, he didn’t say anything out loud . He looked at the feast laying before them . Then, picking up a piece of sweet and sour pork and placing it on Qiao Lian’s bowl, he told her, “Here, have more . ”
Qiao Lian was still stumped .
