Chapter 8 - Revenge (2)

Director Wang questioned Sister Pei angrily,

"Who are you? What are you doing here? Where is Meimei?"

Mrs Wang looked at this all in confusion as she thought is this a new way her husband has found to save his mistress.

Thinking this she slapped her husband's back with her thick hands, almost crushing his bones.

"I know what you are trying to do! Do you think I will fall for it?"

Director Wang's face turned red in anger as he shouted at his wife,

"Shut up! Do you think I care whether you know or not?"

Mrs. wangs face distorted hearing this, and she jumped at Director wang, trying to scratch his face,

"What did you say? You don't care! How shameless can you be."

When Mr. and Mrs. Wang were in a brawl with each other, Sister Pei wrapped the blanket around her and tried to slip away but due to her weak legs, she slipped and fell making enough noise to bring the couple's attention back to her.

They both stopped fighting and rushed to Sister Pei to question her.

"Who are you?"

Sister Pei knew she couldn't escape, but she soon realized that before director wang had entered the door Ji Jingwan did not have the chance to leave the room. So she decided to come clean about her identity,

"I am an agent at the starlight media, Pei An."

Director wang looked at sister pei, trying to remember if there was such an agent in the company,

"You are a small agent in the company, how did you know I would be here?"

Sister Pei shook her head with tears in her eyes,

"I didn't know this was your room."

But director wang didn't believe her, He looked at Sister Pei with disgust,

"Did you think you will get a promotion just by sleeping with me?"

Mrs wang also felt this was all a play so she gave sister pei another slap,

"You were trying to seduce my husband to get a promotion?"

Sister Pei held her slapped cheek and kept shaking her head,

"I really don't know how I ended up here, I was with my assigned actress, Ji JIngwan in the restaurant palm tree across from here and suddenly I started feeling unwell. She told me she will bring me to her room. I don't know what went wrong."

She started sobbing loudly after saying that, both husband and wife were skeptical about was she was saying as to why would an actress set a trap for her own agent.

Sister Pei looked at them from the corner of her eyes, seeing they still didnt believe her, she wiped her tears and said to them,

"She was here with me in this room. Did you not see her?"

Director wang shook his head, but Sister Pei said in a resolute voice,

"No she must still be here, I didn't see her leave the room."

Although Mrs wang didn't believe her, she still went around to look in the room.

She opened the bathroom door, but no one was in there.

She then checked the wardrobes, other than some clothes there was nothing else.

She looked towards the bed, there was enough space underneath the bed for a person to hide. She went to check there but like other places that space was empty as well.

Atlast she went to check the balcony, the balcony's door was hidden behind the curtains she opened the curtains and found that the balcony's door was open. She went out to check but the balcony was empty as well.

She shook her head and said,

"There is no one in the room, she is lying."

"How could this be she was here. She couldn't have left."

Mrs. Wang didn't understand why Sister Pei would make up such a lie when she could have said that someone had left after leaving her here.

Sister Pei got up to look around, but after seeing everywhere she still could not find Ji JIngwan. She seems to have turned hysterical as she went to the balcony and pointed down,

"She must have jumped down from here."

"This is the 16th floor!"

Mrs Wang had enough of her so she grabbed Sister Pei by the hair and threw her outside the hotel room.

As the door to their room was open a lot of people had already gathered around hearing screams, to see what was happening, when they saw a woman wrapped in sheets being thrown out of the room they started snapping pictures of her.

Sister Pei desperately tried to cover herself as she made a run for the elevator.

Ji Jingwan was standing amongst the crowd witnessing all this with no emotions in her eyes. As she witnessed all this she thought of how she had given the double amount of bribe to the waiter to switch the drinks and felt it was not worth it.

'My pockets became light and I didn't even have enough fun watching this.'

After Sister Pei left, she like the rest of the guests went back inside her own room. It was the room next door to the Wangs.

As she sat down inside her room, she thought of her past life,

She trusted Sister Pei a lot but she betrayed her by spiking her wine at the restaurant. She had brought her here to hotel paradise and left her in Director wang's room. But she still had enough energy left to leave the room.

But director wang was already at the door by the time she got up, so she made the run for the balcony.

The balcony of that room was connected to the balcony next door so she used every bit of her strength to jump the balcony over.

After that, her memory was a bit groggy. She seemed to have met a nice guy who brought her to the hospital. But she never got to know who that man was.

Ji Jingwan came out of her memories and thought of her original intentions of coming to this hotel,

'I simply wanted to survey the CCTV but I was pleasantly surprised to find that the room I got was the one next to the director wang's.'

But she was also disappointed that she could not meet that man who had helped her. But she didn't think much of it and decided to pack up and leave as staying there long might bring a lot of trouble.

After leaving the hotel, she stood at the entrance waiting for the cab to arrive.

Right at this moment a car came to a stop in front of her.
