On the other end, Huian gently patted Jinhai on his shoulder.
He saw her but said nothing.
“Jinhai, here. Have a drink. They say this wine is the most expensive and the best out there.”
“I don’t want it.”, he coldly replied.
She looked sad, and pursed her lips.
Liu and Xiang family were also there.
Mother and Father Xiang frowned seeing his behavior.
Liu Hai said nothing. Liu Chunhua sighed.
Grandma Liu said, “Jinhai! Don’t make a scene here. Just accept it. It’s just a drink.”
Xiang Wei asked, “What is the matter Jinhai? Are things that sour between you two that you can’t even accept the drink she offered?”
He was trying to be calm but his voice gave away the surging anger he felt.
Jinhai stared at him hard. He roughly grabbed the wine glass from her and gulped it down entirely in a single take.
The temperature dropped to below freezing point. Without even glancing at Huian, he left from there.
“Liu Hai. What is the meaning of this?”
“Don’t worry. They will sought it out, right Huian?”, he sharply looked at her.
She didn’t know why but she felt goosebumps.
“Yes, dad…”

Jinhai was standing at a corner seemingly lost in his thoughts. Huian was continuously following him. Ten minutes had passed by and she was waiting for the drug to take its effect.
Why is it working so slow? C’mon already!
Jinhai suddenly felt a little uncomfortable. The air conditioning was high but he was feeling hot. He adjusted his tie a little to breathe properly. A thin line of sweat formed on his forehead. He wiped it with his hand.
Huian got elated. Yes! It has started working.
Jinhai started to feel a little dizzy. The surroundings seemed slightly blurred through his vision. He was panting.
He then started walking towards the men’s room, stumbling a little.
This is my chance. I have to take him with me in his room and then…he won’t be able to hold himself back.
“Jinhai! Are you alright? What happened? You look so pale. You are sweating.”
Jinhai shook her hands off. “I’m fine. Go back. I don’t need your help.”
Huian said, “How can I? I’m your wife. How can I leave you alone in such a state? Let me take you to your room. You should rest there.”
“No need.”, he tried to leave but he stumbled again.
“Careful!”, she supported him. “Look, you can’t even walk properly. Jinhai, this is not the time to think about our differences. You need help, so please me do that.”
Jinhai said nothing. He couldn’t focus.
Huian took it as a yes and supported his body over her shoulder. She started walking towards the elevator.

At the same time, Nana was also feeling unwell.
What is wrong with me? Why am I feeling so suffocated? I’m feeling…weird. I-Its hot. She started fanning herself.
Jianyu noticed her a little uncomfortable and asked in concern, “Nana? Are you alright? You don’t look so good.”
“Y-yes, just a little bit.”
“Come here. Sit down for a while.”

The uncomfortable feeling was rising with each passing moment.
“No…Can you wait here? I will just quickly head to the ladies’ room and come back.”
“No problem. Take your time. Come, I will drop you till there.”
“N-no it’s fine. I’ll be okay.”
“Are you sure?”, he asked still a little worried.
She nodded.
“Okay. Be careful.”
Nana started heading towards the washroom. She was feeling dizzy and a weird heat was spreading throughout her body.
W-what is this? Why is it suddenly so hot?
She slowly walked but she faltered in her steps. She was quickly caught by Suyin who was following her and waiting for her chance to take her away.
“Mam, are you okay? You don’t look so good.”
“Huh?”, she was groggy because of the drug. She was distracted and couldn’t properly answer her.
“Mam, please come with me. I think you are drunk. I will give you some medicine and you will feel much better.”
“N-no…”
“It’s okay, mam. Trust me. Come, let me take you there.”
Nana was unable to understand what she was saying. She faintly heard some medicine part and weakly nodded.
Suyin smirked. Yes, Nana. Your medicine is waiting for you.
But, after walking a little while with her, Suyin was also starting to feel a little dazed and giddy.
What is wrong with me? Forget it. Now is not the time.

The unknown man wearing a black leather jacket and a cap stood inside the hotel’s main electrical room that lighted the whole hotel and where the main power generator was located.
In the middle of the room was the main fuse switch which was obviously powered on, glowing red. Beside it, there was the generator, that gave the power in case the electricity went off.
The man first went near the generator and tampered with its wires. It immediately stopped working.
Then he opened the fuse circuit and again tampered with its wires.
He smiled. He held the lever of the main fuse switch and pulled it down.
—
Instantly, the entire hotel was engulfed in total darkness.
Everybody was confused. The guests started to ask questions.
“What happened? Why did the lights go off?”
“Isn’t the generator working?”
“It’s so dark. I cannot see anything.”
More and more people started complaining.
Jianyu’s phone rang. “Jianyu? What happened? Why did the lights go off?”
“I don’t know, Mom. Don’t worry. I will call the manager.”
“En, call quickly. It has become so dark in here. People will start bumping into each other.”
“En. And mom. Can you please check on Nana? She was feeling a little unwell and has gone to the restroom.”
“What? What happened to her? Is she sick?”, she asked worriedly.
“She said she felt a little dizzy. Take the flashlight. She will still be in the restroom.”
“Of course. I will immediately head there at once.”
