Chapter 712: Town Inn
Translator: Exodus Tales Editor: Exodus Tales
Over here was a small county town between Song Jiang and the Donghai Expressway called Shuangli Town. Because of its unique geographic location, the economy was still quite good. Recently, a resort had been built and a series of tourism policies had been launched, making Shuangli Town a good place for leisure and holiday travel.
Therefore, in Shuangli Town, there were many inns that provided a place for temporary rest, and the environment wasn’t bad.
When such a major traffic accident occurred, the police naturally didn’t dare to neglect it. Soon, two police cars flashing police lights came to deal with the accident, followed by ambulances and tow trucks.
Looking at the badly wounded victims being carried to the ambulances, Lin Zhiyun was so scared she buried her head into Yang Ming’s arms. Yang Ming stroked her shoulder and sighed.
Yang Ming, who had seen many dead people, couldn’t help but feel a little emotional. Natural calamities and man-made disasters, who would’ve thought that the subjects of the car accidents were themselves?
The vehicles were separated one by one. Yang Ming’s Audi R8 seemed not to be seriously damaged. Because the sports car was relatively short, it was directly pushed by the truck from the rear into the truck’s chassis in the front. Only the roof was flattened. The front and rear of the car had different degrees of damage but it was in better shape than those cars that had become a pile of scrap iron.
Sun Jie’s Audi R8, was obviously more famous in Donghai City. After the assigned traffic policeman saw the license plate number, his face immediately showed a dignified expression.
When he saw that there weren’t any people in the car, he was relieved.
“You are… the car owner?” When the traffic policeman saw that it wasn’t Sun Jie, but a young man who walked over, he couldn’t help but ask.
“I am not. That’s my friend’s car.” Yang Ming said.
” Oh , then can you call the owner to contact her?” Usually, it wasn’t so laborious, but this traffic policeman just happened to have some connections in the circle of the Sun Family. Knowing that Sun Jie’s R8 wouldn’t be lent to another man, he became suspicious subconsciously. He guessed that Yang Ming’s car had questionable origins.
“Okay.” Yang Ming was also planning to tell Sun Jie, and then find someone to repair the car.
“What’s the matter, Yang Ming?” Sun Jie picked up the phone and whispered, “My dad and I are talking about the company’s matters.”
“Your car was in an accident on the Dongsong Expressway. Thirty-seven cars were involved in a chain collision.” Yang Ming said, “I still have something to do, so I will leave the car here first. Can you talk to the traffic policeman in charge?”
“Okay.” Sun Jie was not annoyed at Yang Ming after she heard about the car accident, but she was subconsciously worried about Yang Ming’s safety. However, now that Yang Ming called her, it proved that he had not suffered any injuries, so Sun Jie didn’t ask much more.
Yang Ming handed the phone to the traffic policeman in front of him. The traffic policeman took the phone and carefully asked, “Is this Sister Sun Jie?… I’m Xiao Zhou, Xiao Tang’s boyfriend… Hello… Oh , ok, I got it. Sister Sun, you can rest assured.”
This traffic policeman Xiao Zhou’s girlfriend, Xiao Tang, was a friend that Sun Jie knew through Yang Li. Xiao Tang had a good family background. They had had meals several times together. However, the background of the Sun Family was the biggest.
Returning the phone to Yang Ming, Xiao Zhou said quickly, “If you have something to do, go ahead and let me handle it.”
“Alright, thanks for the trouble!” Yang Ming also heard and realized that the person in front of him knew Sun Jie, so there was no need to say anymore.
Yang Ming held Lin Zhiyun and walked to Shuangli Town. Xiao Zhou was secretly trying to figure it out. What kind of big shot is the person in front of me? Sun Jie’s car wouldn’t be lent to men, so then what is the relationship between this man and Sun Jie? Who is the girl in his arms?
Xiao Zhou shook his head. He couldn’t ask about these things. He had to ignore these doubts and continue to deal with the traffic accident.
“Are you here on a holiday or to rest temporarily?” A row of motorized three-wheeled motorcycles was parked not far from the entrance to Shuangli Town. The drivers were shouting out loud to attract guests.
Seeing Yang Ming and Lin Zhiyun coming over, a young man who was more agile came over. Everyone else had to give up in envy.
“Rest temporarily. Help me find a clean hotel.” Yang Ming helped Lin Zhiyun get on the boy’s motorcycle.
“Okay!” The young man answered, “The fare is five yuan. Is it ok?”
“Okay.” Although it was a tourist town, the price level was maintained. A five-yuan fare was already considered good. It couldn’t go any higher. Yang Ming didn’t care about this little bit of money and nodded.
Yang Ming and Lin Zhiyun were quickly taken to the door of a well-decorated inn. Yang Ming paid the fare and walked in with Lin Zhiyun. The young man didn’t leave after he took the fare. Yang Ming knew that he would like to take some other commission for sending guests to the hotel, but Yang Ming didn’t care.
This was true in many places. Whether or not they took commissions, it didn’t have much to do with Yang Ming. The money wouldn’t return to Yang Ming in the end. The price of the rooms was an open price. It was written at the entrance of the inn, but the hotel earned less if they gave a portion of the commission to those motorcyclists.
Even so, the inn was willing to pay for this commission. If for no other reason, it hoped that next time, these motorcyclists can introduce more guests.
“Are the both of you staying here or just temporarily resting here?” The hotel’s proprietress warmly greeted them.
“Temporary rest.” Yang Ming said, “Give me a room that has a shower.”
“Okay, a temporary rest is calculated by the hour. Twenty yuan per hour.” The proprietress said, “The minimum charge is based on one hour. If it is more than one hour, it will be charged according to every half-hour period. Of course, it doesn’t matter if it is a few minutes difference. Please first pay one hundred yuan as a deposit.”
“Okay.” Yang Ming took out a banknote from his wallet and handed it to the proprietress. After checking the banknote’s authenticity, she gave Yang Ming a set of keys and let the waiter that stood by the side bring them upstairs.
Yang Ming followed the waiter and pretended to be unintentional as he looked the back. He saw the young man who had just brought them receive a five-dollar commission from the hands of the proprietress before he left happily.
Of course, this commission was based on the premise that Yang Ming was sure to stay. If Yang Ming didn’t choose this place, then there would be no commission for the guy.
The facilities in the room were not bad. It was a standard couple’s room with a separate bathroom, air conditioning, and TV. The sheets were clean and tidy, making them look very comfortable.
“The hot water is available 24 hours a day. The TV is the ChinaSat 9 from the Extending Radio and TV Broadcasting Coverage to Every Village Project[1].” The waiter said, “If there is any other need, call the service desk downstairs. The phone number is 1001.”
“Okay, you can go.” Yang Ming nodded and then the waiter exited the room.
There was only one big bed in the room, but Lin Zhiyun just blushed a little. She didn’t raise any objections. When they were in Donghai, both of them had been together on a big bed before.
“Take a hot bath first.” Yang Ming looked at Lin Zhiyun’s hair which was covered with snow, and said, “Don’t catch a cold.”
” En …” Lin Zhiyun was also freezing. She wanted to take a hot bath right now.
Yang Ming turned on the air conditioner and then went to the bathroom. He first checked it with his special ability and found nothing like surveillance cameras, so then he was relieved.
He ran the hot water and tested the temperature with his hand. The temperature was just right, so he called, “Zhiyun, you should wash up first.”
” Oh …” When Lin Zhiyun got up from the bed, she hadn’t calmed down from the shock yet. She took off her coat, hung it on a hanger and walked toward the bathroom.
“The water temperature is all right. You can wash up immediately.” Yang Ming said. As he walked out from the bathroom, he brushed past Lin Zhiyun’s body. He accidentally touched her fleece top and noticed that it was wet.
” En ?” Yang Ming was stunned. He reached out, touched Lin Zhiyun’s fleece top again, and then he said, “How is it so wet?”
“I… was so scared that I broke into a cold sweat…” Lin Zhiyun said embarrassingly.
“Hurry up and take off your clothes. I will help you dry it under the air conditioner!” Yang Ming said quickly.
” Oh … ok…” Lin Zhiyun nodded shyly. “Then can you… go out first…”
“Hehe.” Yang Ming smiled. He left the bathroom and closed the door. After a while, he heard Lin Zhiyun’s voice. “Yang Ming, are you outside?”
“I am.” Yang Ming said, “Are you giving me the clothes?”
” En .” As she said this, a small slit of the door of the bathroom was opened, and Lin Zhiyun reached out and handed out a neat stack of clothes.
Yang Ming naturally wouldn’t peek at the small slit of the door. If he wanted to see, he didn’t have to peek at it. What couldn’t be seen directly with his special abilities?
“What about the underwear?” Yang Ming looked at the clothes in his hands and asked.
“That… There’s no need…” Lin Zhiyun said quickly.
“How is that okay? It’s all close-fitting clothing. If it’s wet, it’s uncomfortable to wear on your body!” Yang Ming was a little dumbfounded. “What is there to hide in our relationship?”
