"You..."
Hearing Du Cheng's words, Dai Mubai nearly spat out a mouthful of blood on the spot:
What the hell did he mean, pay money to buy a title? Was that something money could buy?
"I want you dead!"
The double blow to both body and soul finally sent Dai Mubai into a rage.
Killing intent flashed in his eyes as Dai Mubai let out a roar:
"White Tiger Raging Light... Urgh~"
Stuffing a carrot into Dai Mubai's mouth, Du Cheng's face was full of disdain:
"So yelling out the name before using a skill is a hobby shared by all chuuni?"
"You, urgh..."
With his mouth forced open, Dai Mubai had never imagined his soul skill would be interrupted in such an embarrassing way:
"Stop!"
Seeing Du Cheng about to make another move, Dai Mubai's pupils contracted:
"I surrender!"
Spitting out the carrot in his mouth, Dai Mubai surrendered as quickly as possible.
"Wouldn't it have been better if you'd done that from the start?"
Letting go and allowing Dai Mubai to climb up from the ground, Du Cheng flashed a broad grin:
"See? Isn't this room still mine?"
"You... Hmph!"
Humiliation flashed through his eyes as Dai Mubai walked toward the door with a dark expression:
"The next time we meet, it won't be so easy for you to beat me."
Given Dai Mubai's strength, if he had not been so careless at the beginning, he believed he would never have lost to Du Cheng so easily.
But things had reached this point, and especially after the carrot-in-the-mouth incident, he had lost all interest in continuing the match with Du Cheng:
Staying here would only make him look even more humiliated!
Besides, considering Du Cheng's age and the strength he had displayed, Dai Mubai believed they would meet again very soon:
When that time came, he would return every bit of this humiliation...
"Young Master Dai, wait for us!"
Seeing Dai Mubai leave, the Twins hurriedly followed after him.
However, when they reached the doorway, one of them suddenly turned around and blew Du Cheng a kiss:
"Little brother, we live at No. 13 Green Plum Street in Suotuo City. Remember to come play with your sisters when you have time~"
No. 13 Green Plum Street!
Silently committing the address to memory, Du Cheng's expression did not change in the slightest:
Although they had not received the system's recognition, the sisters had both looks and figures that were quite good. At the very least... they were qualified to become little snacks!
After the group left, Du Cheng finally turned to look at the receptionist nearby:
"Big sister, may I have my room key now?"
"O-of course."
Nodding rapidly, the receptionist quickly took a room key from the drawer beneath the counter and handed it to Du Cheng:
"Hello, guest. This is your room key. If you need anything else, you may contact me at any time."
As he accepted the room key, Du Cheng could not help but freeze:
Besides the key, he could clearly feel that there was an extra note.
"Thanks. Then I won't stand on ceremony."
Meeting the receptionist's gaze, Du Cheng revealed a broad smile:
"I'll contact you if I need anything."
"Alright, I hope you enjoy your stay!"
Only after Du Cheng and the others had completely disappeared upstairs did the receptionist let out a breath and collapse weakly into her chair:
Rich, handsome, and powerful—if something really could happen with someone like that, it would be wonderful...
Cough, cough cough...
As the receptionist stared toward the second floor and let her imagination run wild, a burst of coughing sounded from beside her.
"Hm?"
Turning her head, the receptionist's expression instantly fell:
"Why are you still here?"
The receptionist could not help reacting that way. She had clearly already imagined Du Cheng charging straight into her, only for this ugly face to suddenly appear before her:
What a mood killer!
"I..."
Despite having gone through this many times, Tang San still could not stop the corner of his mouth from twitching when he saw the receptionist's reaction.
"I want a room!"
"There are no rooms left. Didn't you hear that just now?"
"I can pay more."
Hearing the young receptionist's impatient tone, Tang San could only do his best to restrain his emotions.
"I'm with them, so of course I need a room too..."
"With them? Then why didn't Cheng Ge... cough... Young Master Du take you upstairs?"
Rolling her eyes, the receptionist openly displayed her irritation.
"Our Rose Hotel's motto is 'serve our guests.' Do you think that just because you pay more, I can make the other guests move out?"
"If you insist on staying..."
"There's a way?"
"There's still a woodshed over there. Ten Silver Soul Coins per night."
Pointing to the side, the receptionist continued.
"Stay if you want. If not, hurry up and leave."
"I'll stay!"
Ignoring the receptionist's disgusted look, Tang San hesitated for a long while before finally nodding.
"Ten Silver Soul Coins. Give me the key card!"
"What does a woodshed need a key card for?"
Casually pocketing the Silver Soul Coins Tang San handed over, the receptionist patted the desk in front of her.
"Just go over there. Push the door hard and it'll open."
"You... hmph!"
After spending ten Silver Soul Coins only to receive this kind of treatment, Tang San finally could not hold back a cold snort.
If not for the fact that the woodshed was close to the second floor and would let him vaguely hear some movement, he would never have stayed there!
Compared to Tang San, Du Cheng was not having a much better time either.
After traveling all day, even though they had ridden in a carriage, everyone was actually quite exhausted.
However, just as snores began drifting from Xiao Wu beside him, a pair of small hands climbed onto Du Cheng's chest from the other side.
"Zhuqing?"
Turning his head, Du Cheng met Zhu Zhuqing's timid gaze.
Before Du Cheng could react, Zhu Zhuqing had already tightly embraced him amid a fragrant breeze.
"You..."
"I want to eat carrots."
As she spoke, Zhu Zhuqing even reached one hand downward.
No surprise there—this girl must have been provoked by what happened earlier!
After thinking it over briefly, Du Cheng quickly understood.
After all, under normal circumstances, no matter who it was, seeing their fiancé or fiancée swaggering into a room with two members of the opposite sex would probably be hard to accept, even if they had long since become thoroughly disappointed in them.
Over the past few years, although Zhu Zhuqing and Du Cheng had gotten along quite well, aside from the initial misunderstanding, there had not actually been any further development between them.
Not only that, once they grew a little older, Du Cheng had even taken the initiative to suggest that he sleep separately from Xiao Wu and Zhu Zhuqing.
He might have the preferences of a Cao Cao Enthusiast, but he still had his own bottom line.
Making a move on two little girls should be called beastly, not being a Cao Cao Enthusiast.
But now, in the Douluo world, Xiao Wu and Zhu Zhuqing had actually both reached the age where they could be picked.
After all, Ma Hongjun, who was the same age as them, had probably worn the title of "King of Whoring" for several years already!
