Chapter 268: Seize Your Money

At the hotel's entrance where their rooms were booked, Yunru and Zizi walked towards the reception desk.

"Excuse me. Soo Yunru and Han Zizi. There must be rooms booked for us."

The woman was taken aback, seeing the handsome Yunru. He had a charm from which she couldn't tear her gaze apart and a blush formed in her cheeks. It wasn't just his handsome face but the aura he emanated gave a sense of comfort which was hard to feel with other customers who were strangers to her.

Zizi's mouth twitched. She couldn't understand if she should be mad at her for eyeing Yunru or at him for being so attractive.

Damn it, he is such a magnet for all these annoying bugs!

Zizi suddenly pulled Yunru away in a corner. He widened his eyes. "What happened?"

"We will not stay in this hotel!"

"Why not?" He was confused.

"Because that damn receptionist is eyeing you! Look at her blushing as if you are the first man she has ever seen on this planet!"

"..."

"We cannot stay in a hotel where I know the receptionist is clearly having intentions towards you," she seriously nodded. "So, we will change hotels."

"No way. We will not change hotels. This hotel is arranged for other cops as well who are a part of the conference. It's not just for me. We might catch up somewhere here to talk so it will be inconvenient for me if others are here and I won't be."

"So-so we will ask them to move-"

"That will be even more inconvenient. So plan cancel. Plus, changing hotels just because of a receptionist isn't feasible."

"How can I stay calm when she is…" she gritted her teeth.

He chuckled. "Just ignore her. Her crushing on me isn't gonna make me her boyfriend just like how you putting a ring on my finger haven't necessarily made me your fiance yet."

"..."

Zizi felt conflicted and extremely aggrieved. She couldn't believe that he could play with words so well. He assured her and at the same time burst her bubble too.

"Yunru, am I supposed to feel comforted or attacked?"

"What do you think?" He teased her.

"Why the hell are you so charming!? You attract bees everywhere!"

"Blame my Mom and Dad for the genes."

She choked.

Yunru went back to fetch the keys while Zizi cursed him. 

But of course, she wasn't going to stay quiet when some other woman was crushing upon him. So, she pulled Yunru and hung her arm in his. She arrogantly looked at her as if giving her the message,

'Stay away. He is mine.'

The receptionist inwardly sobbed. 

Aish! Why are such good men always taken?

Yunru sighed and shook his head. "Let's go. We got our keys."

"En...wait! You go ahead. I will be back in a minute."

He narrowed his eyes. He felt suspicious. "Princess, as a cop I should warn not to do anything stupid that will make me arrest you."

She fumed. "What do you mean!? That I will try to harm the receptionist?"

Silence.

"...Better that you don't."

She gnashed her jaw. "Hmph!"

As he left, Zizi craned her neck and confirmed that he was out of view.

She rested her elbow on her desk and grinned. The receptionist quickly said as if she already understood what Zizi was going to say, "I swear I didn't think of anything, Mam. Rest assured. You two look good together."

Zizi beamed. "Really?"

"En," she nodded. "I was just a little surprised. There are not really such men I have seen who can make others feel at ease by just being... present. His aura makes people comfortable."

Zizi felt proud. "Well, of course. He is also a cop you see. So I think it's just ingrained in him."

"Oh that's wonderful! No wonder he gave such a safe feeling," then she realized that she was talking too friendly to the customer that might be out of bounds. She cleared her throat. "*Ahem* Is there any help you need, Mam?"

Zizi leaned towards her and signaled her to lean a bit too. She did and then Zizi whispered. "I just wanted to ask if you could do something so that he and I are forced to stay in one room."

"..."

The receptionist looked at her speechless.

S-so bold! Don't men usually think that way?

"Tsk, first a fall, why are there so many rooms in your hotel?" Zizi said in dissatisfaction.

Isn't that supposed to be a good thing, Mam? Her brow twitched.

"If there had been a shortage, we would have been forced to stay in one room! The perfect situation for me."

"But aren't you two together?"

"Nah. I am chasing after him. I have to jump on every chance I can get to jump on him," Zizi had a serious expression.

She coughed hard.

This woman is... something else!

"So~" she grinned. "Can you pull some strings to make it happen?"

The receptionist never thought that she would get such a request from a customer.

"S-sorry Mam we cannot-" She froze seeing the figure behind Zizi.

Zizi pouted. "Pretty please? I will pay you handsomely for this. Just do anything to bring me into his room."

She broke into a cold sweat. "Mam that... be-behind you…"

Zizi frowned and as she turned, she froze on seeing Yunru standing behind her with his arms folded and staring at her as he squinted his eyes.

"..."

Damn! Did he hear everything!?

She nervously laughed as her heart drummed loudly in her chest. "Haha...Yunru...Weren't you in your room?"

"How can I stay peacefully in my room when you are cooking schemes here?" 

"..."

"What do you mean?" She innocently asked.

"Show that innocent face to someone else, not to a cop."

Her mouth twitched.

Yunru brought his palm forward. "Give me your purse. I need to seize your money."

"Why?"

"So that you don't misuse it for bribing purposes. I don't trust you anymore," he sneered.

"..."
