"Oh? Holding me feels comfortable? Do you want to keep holding me?"
Ziyan's expression was calm, but Qin Yu felt as if the air between them had almost solidified.
"No...no more holding."
Qin Yu quickly let go.
Ziyan, with an expressionless face, climbed out of Qin Yu's arms and calmly got off the bed.
Under Qin Yu's bewildered gaze, she picked her clothes from those scattered beneath the bed and began dressing in front of him.
Ziyan felt no shame; what was to be seen and not to be seen had all been seen the night before. What difference would it make to show a bit more?
Ziyan's simple movements were filled with endless grace, and Qin Yu was instantly captivated.
Soon, Ziyan was dressed, slightly adjusted her hair, grabbed her purse from the bedside table, and silently walked out.
Seeing Ziyan walk with slight discomfort, Qin Yu opened his mouth but didn't know what to say.
"Ziyan, are you okay? Do you want me to take you?"
Ziyan's body paused noticeably, and she turned her head to glance at Qin Yu. She would imprint the image of Qin Yu deeply into her mind!
This man had taken her first time.
Ziyan returned to the side of the bed with an expressionless face and scrutinized Qin Yu with an aggressive gaze.
Qin Yu, somewhat embarrassed, grabbed a blanket to cover himself. He was confused about what Ziyan wanted to do.
"What are you blocking? I've seen it all last night."
Ziyan pursed her lips, opened the zipper of her purse under Qin Yu's embarrassed gaze, took out a stack of cash, and tossed it in front of him,
"This is for your services last night. From now on, we are even. You are not allowed to bother me again."
After saying that, Ziyan left the room with a flourish under Qin Yu's astonished gaze.
Until Ziyan disappeared from his sight, Qin Yu hadn't come to his senses!
Qin Yu dumbly stared at the stack of cash in front of him, his heart screaming!
"Beautiful lady! I'm not out here selling myself!"
Once she stepped out of the room, the strength on Ziyan's face disappeared, she vigorously wiped the tears from the corner of her eyes, and a rebellious smile surfaced on her lips.
Father, didn't you want to sell your daughter?
Now your daughter has become damaged goods. I'd like to see you try to sell me now.
Qin Yu stared numbly at the closed door. If it were not for the visible plum blossom on the sheet, he would still believe that last night was only a dream!
Ziyan, we will meet again, I, Qin Yu, swear it!
Hotel checkouts are usually at noon. Having enjoyed the luxury of a grand bed for a night, Qin Yu had no reason to wake up early.
After the fierce night, Qin Yu decided to sleep in.
Qin Yu slept until eleven thirty, only awaking when he received a call from the front desk.
"Good morning, sir. Would you like to extend your room?"
"No, I'm leaving soon."
"Continue? Bullshit, what can't he do with this $1200?"
After hanging up the phone, Qin Yu got out of bed, took a shower, and didn't leave his room until 11:59, satisfied.
The receptionist was astounded, having never encountered such an odd guest before. Was this his first time ever staying in a luxury king room?
He literally didn't miss a second!
After checking out with the $800 deposit in hand, Qin Yu felt great—yesterday was a huge haul!
Although Qin Yu didn't consider himself a sellout, he kept praying nonetheless.
"Dear Lord, if possible, let these kinds of things happen more often!"
Stepping out of the Hilton Hotel, Qin Yu felt a bit lost.
After serving as a soldier for six years, Luo City had completely changed!
It had become more prosperous and also more unfamiliar. Looking at the skyscrapers, Qin Yu felt a bit out of place.
A month ago, after making a mistake, Qin Yu was discharged from the military, and since returning home, he hadn't found a suitable job. Every time he went for a job interview, the recruiters would ask him what his special skill was, and his response was, "Killing people."
Poor guy, Qin Yu was telling the brutal truth, but all the recruiters thought there was something wrong with his mind.
It wasn't until yesterday, when Qin Yu mentioned this to Liu Tian, that Liu Tian almost died laughing.
That's when Qin Yu realized, in society, killing people is illegal and definitely not considered a skill.
Fortunately, being the top soldier in the military, Qin Yu had undergone the toughest training and possessed many skills.
Knowing his way around, Qin Yu headed to the job market, where today happened to be the monthly big event. Even in the afternoon, the job market was still packed with people.
The job market was a mix of high-level white-collars, green recent graduates, and some laborers.
Qin Yu was keen on frequenting the job market for a reason—there were a lot of girls applying for jobs, especially those innocent recent graduates.
Because those who were not innocent had already been taken care of, no need to sweat finding a job in the heat.
Qin Yu squatted at the entrance of the job market, a cigarette dangling from his lips, squinting his eyes, constantly sizing up the passing girls.
"This one won't do, too ugly; this one neither, too fat; this one still won't do, too dark!"
Nope, nope, all of them aren't right!
After meeting Su Ziyan, Qin Yu's standards had skyrocketed. The girls he used to find exciting now sparked no interest at all.
Qin Yu could only walk into the job market, wandering back and forth, hoping to find a decent job.
Being a regular at the job market, several recruiters from companies that were regular hirers recognized him. Upon seeing Qin Yu, they started whispering to one another, pointing at him.
'You see, that crazy guy is back! Do you know what his skill is?"
"Of course, watch out, he's a dangerous man—his skill is killing people!"
"Hahaha, must have escaped from a mental hospital, right? And you know what, it's not illegal for a lunatic to kill people; murdering might actually be his skill! Too bad, looks so sharp but the mind's a mess!"
Killing?
A middle-aged fat man squinted his eyes, scrutinizing Qin Yu. In Qin Yu's face, the middle-aged man saw indifference!
It was an indifference to human life!
Suddenly, the middle-aged man started walking toward Qin Yu.
