The Rabbit Wants to Eat the Grass by Its Burrow

"Okay."

Although the service lady found it a bit strange for four people to book two rooms, she didn't say anything.

Service first, the rest was none of her business.

Taking the keys to the two rooms, Xiao Wu directly tossed one to Tang San. As for the remaining room, it was for him, Zhu Zhuqing, and Du Hao.

Having slept in the same room since childhood, the three of them didn't feel anything was wrong.

Of course, even if they felt something was wrong, none of them would say it.

Tang San, who had anticipated this, took the key and even glanced over at them, tutting a few times.

He thought the three over there were playing a bit too wild.

"Xiao San, we'll head back to our room first. After we put our luggage away, let's go out for a stroll," Du Hao said, taking the key Xiao Wu handed him and turning to remind Tang San.

"I have something else to do, so I won't go," Tang San immediately waved his hand.

He didn't want to be a third wheel.

He saw that Xiao Wu, standing behind Du Hao, was already looking at him with kind yet eerie eyes.

If he agreed, he'd suffer greatly.

Seeing that Xiao San didn't agree, Du Hao shrugged, "Alright then, I'll bring you back a gift."

Since his little brother didn't agree, there was nothing he could do. Anyway, he just needed to buy the target item later.

The crystal board in Flender's shop wouldn't run away, so he'd buy it along the way.

Just as the two groups were about to return to their rooms, a fierce argument suddenly erupted from the front desk: "What? My room is gone?!"

Stopping in their tracks, Du Hao turned his head curiously towards the direction of the front desk.

At a glance, he saw a noble young man with heterochromatic eyes questioning the front desk with dissatisfaction.

"Are you new? Don't you know that's my exclusive room? How dare you rent it out?" he said, slamming his hand on the counter in front of the service lady.

"Go! Call your manager over!"

"Yes, yes, yes, I'll go right away." The front desk lady quickly bowed and apologized. She seemed to realize she had made a big mistake and hurried towards the back.

This kind of situation was beyond her ability as a small employee to resolve, so she had to find the manager.

Seeing this, Tang San frowned and whispered to Du Hao beside him, "Brother Hao, could one of our rooms be his?"

"What's wrong, you want to step in?"

Du Hao, holding Zhu Zhuqing's hand, said with a smile.

He had anticipated this plotline. He had thought he missed it when he didn't see Dai Mubai appear earlier.

Unexpectedly, Dai Mubai was only making his appearance now.

"It's not that. I just feel like that man will come looking for trouble later," Tang San wasn't the type to be a saint; he just felt there might be trouble later.

Judging by the way the young man with heterochromatic eyes acted, he didn't seem like someone who would give up easily.

Moreover, he was followed by two twin women. Anyone could tell what they were there for.

They were clearly at this hotel to hook up...

"Sister Zhuqing, do you think that person over there will come looking for me later?" Xiao Wu suddenly leaned towards Zhu Zhuqing and asked in a low voice.

"I'm not sure, but for some reason, I feel a bit repulsed by that person," Zhu Zhuqing said strangely, smiling and stroking Xiao Wu's head.

"Maybe it's just my imagination."

Zhu Zhuqing had no contact with the outside world at all, let alone with the main Zhu Clan.

She didn't remember much from her childhood.

Perhaps the Zhu Clan had already forgotten that Zhu Zhuqing even existed.

If anything, only her older sister, Zhu Zhuyun, might remember that she had a half-sister from childhood.

"Since Sister Zhuqing says so, then that person over there must not be a good person," Xiao Wu said seriously, her head still under Zhu Zhuqing's hand.

"You, you just know how to make me happy." Seeing Xiao Wu's innocent and pure appearance, Zhu Zhuqing smiled and vigorously ruffled her rabbit ears.

"Hehe, Sister Zhuqing is the best~ So, can I sleep in the middle tonight?" Xiao Wu revealed her rabbit tail, a shy smile on her face.

In the past, Zhu Zhuqing would always lie between them when they slept, protecting them both. This made the rabbit, who only wanted to eat the grass near her own burrow, anxious.

Every time she tried to sneak over at night, Zhu Zhuqing would push her back with an invisible hand.

This had troubled Xiao Wu for many years. She had been staring at Du Hao, this delicious "fat meat," but couldn't get her hands on it.

"No," Zhu Zhuqing refused with a smile.

Don't think she didn't know what this rabbit was up to. She wanted to poach her man, but that was impossible.

It would have to wait until she was done with him.

"So stingy..." Xiao Wu pouted and mumbled, clearly displeased with Zhu Zhuqing's selfish behavior for a long time.

While the four of them were conversing, the hotel manager rushed out in a panic, speaking incessantly to Dai Mubai.

Immediately after, the receptionist pointed toward the group of four and whispered something.

Soon, the hotel manager was seen bringing Dai Mubai over, clearly having reached some sort of agreement.

Du Hao and the others, who had been waiting for quite some time, watched quietly as the two approached them.

"Little San, what do you think they're coming over for?" Du Hao asked Tang San with a smile.

The reason his group hadn't returned to their rooms immediately was that they wanted to see how the hotel would handle the situation, so as to avoid any unexpected trouble later on.

"Brother Hao, since the manager is coming over, I'd say there's a nine-in-ten chance they want us to give up one of our rooms," the rational Tang San replied truthfully.

"And are you willing to give it up?"

"Of course not. We were here first." Tang San said this with complete justification.

After all, it was first come, first served; who would be willing to give up their room?

"I say, my two friends, one of you has booked my room. I wonder if you could yield it? I am willing to pay double the price." Dai Mubai, with a twin in each arm, spoke in an arrogant tone.

Dai Mubai paid no attention to the trembling hotel manager beside him.

The hotel manager merely wiped the sweat from his forehead, offering a fawning smile as he said, "This was an operational error on our hotel's part. We are willing to compensate you tenfold for your trouble."

Hearing such a sincere and earnest apology, it was Du Hao's side that was left stunned.

Isn't this the right pair?

According to the plot, shouldn't Dai Mubai be arrogant and demand they give up the room?

Besides, while the original Dai Mubai wasn't exactly malicious, he didn't seem like the type with such a good temper either.

Just as the atmosphere reached a stalemate, a figure appeared out of nowhere, accompanied by a dignified voice.

"Friends, has a problem occurred?"

This single sentence made everyone present shiver, as if mice had encountered a cat.

They all turned to look at the source of the voice.

"No way, how could I run into you here?" The moment he saw the person, Tang San exclaimed in shock!
