9: He really wasn't lying.
Seeing his sincere attitude, Chen Yuqing pondered for a moment, then said emotionlessly, "Just pretend this never happened.
From now on, you cannot mention it to anyone. If any rumors spread, we will not let you off lightly.
Leave now! We don't want to see you anymore."
Hearing Chen Yuqing's words, Lin Zifeng was overjoyed. He hadn't expected to pass so easily.
As for Chen Yuqing's request, it was exactly what he wanted.
He was afraid that this matter would reach Zhang Haoyu's ears, and if he found out he had been cuckolded, Zhang Haoyu would flay him alive!
So he readily agreed and walked towards the door.
As he reached the door, he inexplicably turned around and asked, "I know your name is Chen Yuqing, but what about your sister?"
Chen Yuxi subconsciously answered him, "My name is Chen Yuxi."
Chen Yuqing, however, coldly shouted at him, "Get out."
He dared not linger, quickly opened the door, and left the room somewhat awkwardly.
Looking at the closed door, Chen Yuxi couldn't help but ask, "Sister, are we just letting him go like this?"
"What else can we do? What he said is very likely true. What happened last night was just a coincidence.
Besides, this matter shouldn't be publicized. If it leaks out, how will we, The two sisters, face anyone in the future?"
Chen Yuqing said calmly.
"In that case, does it mean we can't find someone to check the surveillance video to verify what Lin Zifeng said?"
Chen Yuxi said, looking unwilling.
"To ensure not a trace of this matter leaks out, we cannot alert anyone to verify it.
But we can verify it ourselves! We'll check out immediately, go to the front desk, and pretend to be Lin Zifeng's friends. Won't we know if what he said is true or false then?"
Chen Yuqing offered a suggestion.
The two sisters discussed it for a while, then packed their personal belongings, specifically putting both bedsheets into their bags, before leaving the room.
They walked all the way to the hotel's front desk, where the same Cashier from last night was on duty.
The two sisters placed their room cards on the front desk, and Chen Yuqing calmly said, "Sister, we're checking out. There's something I need to mention: my sister and I dirtied the bedsheets in the room.
My sister is young and has always been shy, so we've collected both bedsheets and plan to take them outside to deal with ourselves.
We'll compensate for the damages according to your prices, and we hope you can make an exception for us."
"It's a small matter. As women, I understand how you feel."
The Cashier thought that The two sisters had both gotten their periods at the same time and dirtied the sheets, and were too embarrassed to leave them, choosing to take them away and dispose of them. She had encountered such situations before, so she readily agreed.
"Thank you, Sister. Sister, last night a friend of mine also came to your hotel without our knowledge.
I only found out when he called me just now. He said he drank too much here last night and also stayed here. Is that true?
I just want to know if he's lying to me? How can someone get themselves so drunk?"
Chen Yuxi asked sweetly, just as she and Chen Yuqing had discussed earlier.
"Little sister, what does this friend of yours look like? Since he stayed here, I have a record. What's his name?"
Seeing how sweet Chen Yuxi was, the Cashier didn't refuse her inquiry.
"His name is Lin Zifeng, and he's tall and thin."
"Are you talking about that energetic young man? I remember him.
He came alone last night and even asked for a private room. I wonder what troubles that young man encountered?
I heard the staff talking; he drank three bottles of high-proof baijiu and over ten bottles of beer by himself.
He wouldn't be your boyfriend, and he's not doing this because he had a fight with you, is he?"
The Cashier asked curiously.
"No, no, we're just ordinary friends."
The Cashier didn't quite believe it but didn't press the issue, continuing, "Originally, last night, after the young man paid the bill, he was going to leave.
I saw he was drunk and worried he might have an accident on the way, so I persuaded him to stay overnight.
I even handled his check-in!"
"He was indeed very drunk last night. When he came down to check out, he even lost his room card and voluntarily paid for it before leaving.
He's really a very good young man. If you're dating him, you should cherish him!"
Chen Yuxi mumbled her way through, got the answer she wanted, and after The two sisters checked out, they quickly left.
Sitting in the car together, The two sisters finally breathed a sigh of relief.
"Sister, he really didn't lie; everything he said was true. This is too bizarre; the timing is too coincidental, as if it was destined to happen," Chen Yuxi said with a complex expression from the passenger seat.
“ Why! An unexpected coincidence, And so I got on board., Our innocence, And it's the same man..
"Alas! I didn't expect an unexpected coincidence would cost us, The two sisters, our innocence, and with the same man at that.
We can only suffer in silence about this matter. From now on, pretend it never happened and keep it buried deep inside! Don't mention it to anyone."
Chen Yuqing sighed softly.
"Sister, can you truly remain calm and pretend this never happened?"
"Even if I can't, I must."
After saying this, Chen Yuqing started the car and drove towards the Provincial Capital.
"Sister, are we just going back to the Provincial Capital like this? Not dealing with that culprit, Zhang Yuhao?"
"If we don't want this matter to leak out, we can only pretend not to know about being drugged, making Zhang Yuhao mistakenly believe that the drug didn't take effect."
"Are we just letting that scoundrel off the hook? Isn't that letting him off too easily?"
Chen Yuxi said, looking unwilling.
"Hmph, I've already thought of a way to punish him. Didn't he stumble because of his personal conduct? Once he leaves Yushu County and returns to the Provincial Capital, I'll divorce him.
Once he divorces me, he'll lose his political resources. That will be the best punishment for him.
I'll have a legitimate reason for divorce, and even Dad won't be able to say anything."
Chen Yuqing snorted delicately and said coldly.
"Hmm, Sister, you should do that. Anyway, you have no feelings for him, nor have you had marital relations. I think it's a good thing to leave such a man early.
If Dad doesn't agree, I'll stand by you and speak up for you."
Chen Yuxi said without hesitation.
"Good, anyone who dares to scheme against The two sisters must pay the price."
The two sisters formed a united front and drove towards the Provincial Capital.
Zhang Yuhao, still half-asleep, had no idea that an unsuccessful scheme had not only benefited Lin Zifeng but also that Chen Yuqing would soon divorce him. One can't help but sigh, it's fate!
