The intense heat waves assaulted her senses, An Ran bit her lip and tried to hold on, but her body was too weak to muster any strength.
Just as Xiao Xiao was nearing the hotel, she saw Sun Xuehui and her daughter getting into a car and speeding away.
She hurriedly ran to the hotel front desk, panting heavily as she asked, "Miss, could you please check which room the three won who just ca in went to?"
The receptionist gave the girl in old clothes a disdainful look. "I’m sorry, but that’s private information that I cannot disclose."
"What privacy? Do you know that the girl just now might have been forced?" Xiao Xiao shouted loudly without regard for her image, drawing the attention of so guests in the lobby.
The receptionist frowned, "Miss, please don’t cause trouble here. All our hotel check-ins follow proper procedures."
Xiao Xiao wanted to say more but was already being held by the arms by two security guards.
"Miss, this is a five-star hotel. Please leave so as not to damage our reputation."
"Let go of ! You are aiding and abetting a criminal. If sothing happens, your hotel will be held responsible."
"Miss, please watch your words. If you continue to defa the hotel, we will pursue legal action against you." The two security guards threw Xiao Xiao outside and sternly warned her, standing at the entrance as if ready to stop her from taking another step forward.
Seeing the lavish hotel, Xiao Xiao’s eyes reddened with anxiety as she paced back and forth at the entrance. What should she do? What should she do?
In her desperation, she suddenly thought of soone. Trembling, Xiao Xiao took out her phone and dialed a number she had saved but never called since the start of school.
After two rings, a low, husky male voice answered, "Hello, who is this?"
"Instructor Mu, this is Xiao Xiao, An Ran’s friend. An Ran is in danger right now. Please save her." Xiao Xiao almost cried as she said this.
Knowing that Mu Xingfeng had saved An Ran several tis before, she believed only he could help now. If he couldn’t co, at least he could send soone. Xiao Xiao couldn’t think of anyone else to turn to.
"What’s happening? Explain clearly." The icy voice on the other end of the line sounded like it ca from hell.
Xiao Xiao wasted no ti in quickly telling Mu Xingfeng everything she had seen.
"Wait there." With those simple four words, Mu Xingfeng hung up the phone.
In the upscale ward of the Imperial Military General Hospital, Chen Yankun tightened his clothes against the cold aura emanating from Mu Xingfeng.
"What happened, Second Brother?"
For his second brother to look this grim, it must be sothing major.
"Old Third, get a helicopter imdiately."
"Second Brother, are you leaving the hospital? Just tell what you need, you shouldn’t..."
"Cut the crap, now." Mu Xingfeng’s cold voice interrupted Chen Yankun.
Not daring to say more, Chen Yankun quickly arranged for a military helicopter, which landed on the hospital rooftop within five minutes. Mu Xingfeng, who was already waiting on the rooftop, jumped straight into the helicopter.
In the Tianxue Hotel lobby, the hotel manager Shen Jianxiong rushed out of the elevator, heading straight for the front desk. "Who checked into the hotel fifteen minutes ago? Pull up the records for ."
"Huh?" The receptionist didn’t expect the manager to check in person and was montarily stunned.
"What do you an ’huh’? If you can’t do your job, get out!"
