Chapter 6 Chapter Six

Yang Yue pushed open the door of the manager's office of the administrative club and called out, "Manager Tong." No one in the room answered, Yang Yue turned around the short aisle in front of the door, only to see Pan Yulong in the room receiving Tong Jiayan's reprimand. Tong Jiayan said sharply: "It's been so long, is it just going to the bathroom? It's business hours, do you know that!" Yang Yue stopped awkwardly and did not interrupt them. Tong Jiayan asked again: "Did you go to the girl invited by the guests of Jingfu Hall?" Yang Yue quietly shifted her gaze to Pan Yulong, obviously very concerned about how he would answer.

Pan Yulong lowered his head and said, "No." Tong Jiayan said: "Okay, let me ask you again, do you know this girl? I hope you can tell the truth." Pan Yulong was silent for a moment, then said, "I know." "I know, okay, have you gone to find her?" Tong Jiayan asked Pan Yulong insisted, "No." Tong Jiayan asked: "Then what did you do?" Pan Yulong said: "I called her friend...I wanted her friend to come and pick her up, but she got that guest drunk." Pan Yulong's explanation sounded basically reasonable, and Tong Jiayan couldn't find any flaws, so he nodded, and let out a sigh of hatred.

Yang Yue's expression also quietly relaxed. "Pan Yulong, from the first day you came, I thought you were a talented person. I won't punish you this time. I hope you don't make such low-level mistakes again. Okay, get off work." Pan Yulong said, "Thank you, Manager Tong." Then he walked out of the hut with his head down, and when he passed by Yang Yue, he heard Tong Jiayan's voice turn to Yang Yue. "Yang Yue, you are looking for me, what's the matter?" "Ah, no. Our public relations department invites a guest to dinner at the club. This guest has a cold. I want to ask if you have any cold medicine here."

"Cold medicine? Have you found the infirmary, they are on duty at night." Ah Peng arrived on a motorcycle like the wind. He parked the car outside the hotel door, and rushed into the lobby of the hotel without locking it. The doorman of the hotel shouted from behind: "Hey, whose motorcycle can't park here!" The door of an employee elevator opened, and Pan Yulong came out together with several night shift attendants.Everyone's collars were loose and their steps were exhausted. Only Pan Yulong hurried past the people in front and ran to the locker room. A receptionist at the service desk looked up from the computer screen under the counter and said to A Peng in front of the counter: "Sorry, we don't have this guest's registration here."

Ah Peng resolutely: "There must be! She just opened a room!" The female receptionist lowered her head and tapped on the computer again, and said, "What's your name, Tang Doudou?" "Yes, three o'clock water and that soup!" The female receptionist searched the computer and asked, "Does she have an English name? Does she open a room with an English name?" "She doesn't have an English name, so her name is Tang Doudou!" The female receptionist raised her head and said decisively, "No, definitely not." A Peng couldn't help being impatient: "There must be! Please check again, please!"

Seeing this, a male receptionist next to him came up and said, "Sir, did you make a mistake in your name? Our computer records are very clear. If there is one, we will definitely be able to find it." A Peng became a little restless, and his tone seemed to be arguing: "Then why can't you find out? She obviously has a room, why can't you find out!" The female receptionist was stunned, and the male receptionist tried to suppress his anger: "I'm sorry sir, please don't make such loud noises, this is a public place..." Pan Yulong didn't take a shower, he hurriedly changed into casual clothes, and hurried out of the dressing room.

Just as Pan Yulong walked out of the staff entrance, he saw A Peng riding on a motorcycle by accident, waiting anxiously for him to come out. Pan Yulong entrusted a classmate who was admitted to the Wancheng Hotel and was assigned as an intern in the front office to help check the room number. As soon as the classmate on the night shift came out, Pan Yulong and A Peng who were waiting together went up to him and asked eagerly. road: "Have you found it?" The classmate panicked, dragged Pan Yulong to a corner, took out a registration card in his hand, and asked in a low voice, "Is your name Ma Shilun?"

"Seems." "Is it really?" "Yes, that person's surname is Ma!" "He lives in room 1205 and has lived in it for four days. Another room was just opened tonight, which is room 1215." As soon as classmate Pan Yulong finished speaking, Ah Peng, who was standing behind Pan Yulong, walked away.Pan Yulong said to his classmates: "Thank you." He also ran after A Peng. The classmate yelled at the backs of them: "Hey, don't tell me the room number I gave you!" A Peng and Pan Yulong quickly found the room 1215. A Peng stepped forward and knocked on the door, but no one in the room responded.

The entire corridor was extremely quiet, and Pan Yulong couldn't help looking around, and reminded A Peng in a low voice: "Be gentle!" But A Peng ignored it and continued to slam on the door heavily.Pan Yulong gave him a hand, and the two ran towards room 1205 again. The knock on the door shook the entire corridor again, and there was a quick response from the door of room 1205: "Who is it?" Pan Yulong pulled A Peng away and said, "Waiter!" There was a sound of footsteps in the door, and the door opened. Boss Ma, covered in shaving foam, pulled his head out of the doorknob. A Peng slammed into the door hard. Boss Ma was caught off guard, and quickly chased A Peng, shouting repeatedly :

"Hey, who are you looking for, where are you from?" In the house, Tang Doudou was lying on Boss Ma's bed drunk and unconscious, but fortunately his clothes hadn't been taken off yet.A Peng couldn't help but picked Tang Doudou up from the bed and carried it on his shoulder.Boss Ma stepped forward to stop him: "Hey, what are you doing, where are you from? Hey..." A Peng didn't answer a word, and walked out the door with the sleeping Tang Doudou on his back.Boss Ma was sober and frightened, and suddenly realized that Pan Yulong, who was walking out behind Ah Peng, looked familiar. Then he came to his senses, chased after him and shouted: "Wait, what are you doing! What are you..."

In the narrow aisle at the door, Boss Ma grabbed Ah Peng by the shoulders, but Pan Yulong next to him slammed his arm on the door of the closet.Pan Yulong's elbow was so strong that the whole wooden door of the closet made a huge sound. Shock.Boss Ma was stunned. Pan Yulong looked fiercely, but he didn't make any further movements. He then let go of Boss Ma's stiff body and walked out of the room. Boss Ma fell to the ground baring his teeth. He wanted to chase him out, but he had lost his strength.He struggled to get up, his back seemed to be injured internally, he scrambled back to the room, threw himself on the bedside table, picked up the phone, and shivered into the receiver, shouting: "Hurry up, come quickly , Someone broke into and robbed! Come and catch the gangster! Come..." Pan Yulong and A Peng, who carried Tang Doudou on his shoulder, hurried through the quiet corridor and entered the staff elevator hall.Pan Yulong was about to go forward to press the elevator button when he suddenly noticed that the "up" arrow light of another employee elevator was blinking.Perhaps the security guards called by Boss Ma had already arrived. In desperation, Pan Yulong grabbed A Peng, and the two turned into the pedestrian fire stairs next to them.Almost at the same time as the doors of the fire stairs were closed, the doors of the staff elevators opened. The manager on duty at night and three security guards with electric batons came out and rushed towards the corridor of the guest room. In the well of the fire stairs, only the emergency lights on each floor give off a pale light.Pan Yulong and A Peng, who was carrying Tang Doudou on his back, walked quickly down the spiral staircase, and the iron staircase reverberated in the bottomless shaft. The manager on duty at night and three security guards from the security department have rushed to Room 1205 and are asking Boss Ma about the situation.Boss Ma was lying on the bed with his teeth bared, the shaving foam on his face was rubbed off, and there was even a white patch on his nose, just like a clown with a painted face on an opera stage. Boss Ma said angrily: "Two men! They are in their 20s! They are so tall!" Boss Ma pointed at a security guard, "He's only this tall!" The manager on duty asked, "What clothes are you wearing?" Boss Ma couldn't remember: "What clothes are you wearing? What are you wearing...One of them belongs to your restaurant!" The manager on duty was startled, and immediately became nervous: "What, our hotel?" Boss Ma insisted: "That's right! I've seen him! I must have seen him!" The duty manager continued to ask: "Where did you see him?" Pan Yulong and A Peng kept going down the fire escape. They had been walking quickly in the closed stairwell for an unknown amount of time, and finally saw a small open door emitting warm lights.A Peng still wanted to go down, but Pan Yulong pulled him, and the two turned out of the fire escape through this small door. They found that they had come to the logistics area on the basement floor of the hotel.In the dead of night, the fluorescent lights illuminated the deserted corridor, they barely knew the direction, and ran forward quickly along the corridor. The order to investigate and stop the murderer has been issued in time. In room 1205, a security guard was ordered to issue a notice on the walkie-talkie: "...notify the employees at the entrance and exit immediately, and those who are off the night shift should not leave the shop for the time being! Did you hear that? Employees, if you haven't left the store, don't leave the store for now..." The manager on duty looked at his watch and said to Boss Ma: "Boss Ma, it's already past the time to leave the night shift, but there may still be some employees who haven't left. Would you like to come down with us later, and identify them Who hit you?" Boss Ma said angrily, "Okay, I'll identify it!" It was very late at night, and the logistics area on the basement of the hotel was like no one's land. A Peng carried Tang Doudou, who was unconscious on his back, and followed Pan Yulong quickly through this huge lost city.They walked through the rumbling air-conditioning room, then through the cold and gloomy meat cold storage, and entered the food rough processing workshop. Suddenly, two patrolling security guards appeared ahead! Pan Yulong took A Peng with him, using the hanging livestock as a cover, and escaped the security guard's eyes without any danger. Pan Yulong and A Peng entered the water treatment workshop and ran quickly between the machine pools. A security guard patrolling the hotel lobby held a walkie-talkie, looked around and reported: "I didn't see it, I didn't see it. If it's a hotel employee, it's impossible to go through the main entrance." A bunch of employees who were about to get off work were stopped by the guard, blocking the door and making noise: "What's wrong?" "what's up?" "Why don't you let us go home, what time is it?" The doorman dissuaded: "Everyone wait for a while and take a rest next to it. Something happened to the hotel, and we don't know exactly what happened." The employees still complained: "How long will we have to wait, it won't even be easy to take a taxi any later." "Who will reimburse you for taking a taxi!" "My friend is still waiting for me at the door, let me go out first." "It's so late! We have to go to work early tomorrow, will you let us sleep?" ... A Peng, carrying Tang Doudou on his back, followed Pan Yulong and escaped from a small door behind the hotel, where there was no one in the dark.Pan Yulong first jumped off the one-meter-high unloading platform, and then went to pick up Tang Doudou. A Peng handed Tang Doudou to Pan Yulong and jumped off himself.Pan Yulong was about to carry Tang Doudou on his shoulder, but A Peng stepped forward and snatched Tang Doudou back on his back.At this time Tang Doudou seemed to wake up, but after only a few words in her sleep, she leaned on A Peng's shoulder and fell asleep again. Pan Yulong and A Peng were walking quickly in the dark alley, and they finally saw an intersection in front of them. The bright light on the street came into view, and they quickened their pace and ran towards the bright light. The detained employees have been allowed to go home one after another, leaving the hotel in twos and threes full of complaints. Boss Ma was sitting in the guard room, grinning and supporting his aching waist.The manager on duty at night asked him apologetically, "Is your injury serious? Should you go see a doctor first?" Boss Ma didn't answer, his eyes were straightened, as if he hadn't woken up from the nightmare. The security officer on duty interrupted: "Mr. Ma, look...do you want to call the police?" Hearing the word "call the police", Boss Ma became excited and shouted: "Yes, call the police! I want to call the police! I want to call the police!" The duty manager said: "Okay, we will send you a car right away." Boss Ma said angrily: "You guys report for me, look at me like this, can I still get a car!" The duty officer of the security department said apologetically: "Ah, according to the regulations of the Public Security Bureau, you must personally go to the Public Security Bureau to take notes when calling the police. The Public Security may require you to describe the whole process in detail. The ins and outs of this matter, Only you can tell clearly." When Boss Ma heard this, he was stunned: "What, the ins and outs?" He seemed guilty and sober from the wine, he was stunned for a while, lowered his hair and said: "Forget it, you can send me to the hospital first." Pan Yulong stopped a taxi, and then helped Apeng stuff Tang Doudou into the car. Pan Yulong then got in, and Apeng slammed the door of the car for him outside the car, and the taxi started immediately. The manager on duty at night commanded several security guards to help Boss Ma into a hotel car, and the car drove towards the hospital. Tang Doudou leaned on Pan Yulong's shoulder and fell asleep. Pan Yulong looked at her frowning and looked at her lovingly.Suddenly, Pan Yulong noticed a bright light flashing across the dark compartment of the taxi. He turned his head and saw A Peng through the rear window of the car.Ah Peng rode that huge motorcycle with the headlights on, and followed them like a escort, his clothes and hair were blown in the wind. Looking back, Pan Yulong couldn't describe the feeling in his heart. The taxi stopped at the gate of the small courtyard. When Pan Yulong carried Tang Doudou out of the car, A Peng had already parked his motorcycle aside. He grabbed Tang Doudou and carried Tang Doudou on his shoulders. He entered the yard and strode upstairs. Looking at their backs, Pan Yulong took out the money and handed it to the driver. In Tang Doudou's bedroom, Pan Yulong threw a towel with hot water, and A Peng immediately took it and wiped Tang Doudou's face carefully on the bed. Under the bedside lamp, the two boys bent over and looked at each other with concern. Tang Doudou was still asleep, but there was no restlessness between his brows, and there was a trace of sweetness and peace. The two boys raised their heads, their eyes met unintentionally, and they said in unison: "Thank you." Both of them were a little awkward, and each looked away with their own concerns, avoiding each other. The next day, the night shift manager reported to the resident manager what happened last night. The resident manager was silent for a while, and said: "Since it is a complaint from a customer, we must pay attention to it. You first report it to Mr. He verbally, and immediately notify the security department, customer service department and catering department, and ask them to come in charge People come to my office. We must find out the situation of this matter and give the guest an explanation!" With a stack of documents in her arms, Yang Yue walked into the office of the security department.In the outhouse of the security department, several internal security cadres are interrogating Pan Yulong. Seeing Pan Yulong, Yang Yue's footsteps stopped unexpectedly, and she walked past Pan Yulong into the back room. The two managers of the security department were talking about something in the back room. One of them saw Yang Yue coming in and greeted him first: "Hey, Mr. Yang, what can you do?" Yang Yue said: "Manager Liu, it's still about the legal training of your security department. Are you free now? I want to report the preparation of the course to you." "If you're free, come and have a seat." The manager of the security department said enthusiastically. Yang Yue sat down at the desk, but her ears couldn't help but pay attention to the outer room. The voices of the security officers in the outer room interrogating Pan Yulong could only be heard intermittently. The internal security cadre asked, "What time did you get off work yesterday?" "It's almost 11 o'clock when I get off work." "What did you do after get off work?" "Going home." "What do you wear to get off work?" "Wear your own clothes." "What kind of clothes?" "I'm wearing jeans and a T-shirt." "Do you know the woman invited by the guest yesterday?" Pan Yulong remained silent and did not answer. Yang Yue in the inner room listened anxiously to the questions and answers in the outer room, and wanted to talk to the manager of the security department opposite. After talking about the training, Yang Yue stood up and said, "Okay, I have already discussed with the training department about the classroom. At 6:00 p.m. next Monday, everyone on the day shift and night shift will come to listen. Let’s listen to the recording later.” "Okay, that's it. You won't sit down for a while?" "No, I'm leaving first." The manager of the security department walked Yang Yue out of the back room while talking.Yang Yue saw that the internal security cadres in the outer room were still pressuring Pan Yulong. "Let me tell you, if you admit it, at most it will be expulsion. If you don't admit it, we have to send it to the public security organ for processing. The guest is injured now, do you know that, the guest has already been admitted to the hospital, do you know I know! People are going to court to sue our hotel, do you know that! Now you admit that the hotel can take some measures to restore the impact. This not only saves you, but also saves the reputation of our Wancheng Hotel." Pan Yulong lowered his head and seemed to have given up denying it. He raised his head and was about to confess: "Last night, me and..." Seeing this, Yang Yue quickly interrupted Pan Yulong's confession. She said to the manager of the security department, "Hey, you are asking about the incident where the guest was beaten last night. How did you bring him into this?" The internal security cadre took a look at Yang Yue and said, "The characteristics described by the guest are the most similar to him." Another internal security cadre said: "And he also knows the girl who had dinner with this guest yesterday." Yang Yue smiled and said, "Oh, that must not be him. We went home together after get off work last night!" The internal security cadres and Pan Yulong were all stunned. The internal security cadre was a little puzzled: "Did you go back home together?" Yang Yue replied: "That's right, I happened to pass by his house when I took a taxi home, so I gave him a ride along the way, and their house lives on the side of Shiban Street." The internal security cadre asked, "What time did you send him home last night?" Yang Yue thought about it: "Well...it's about 10 o'clock, almost 11 o'clock." The manager of the security department immediately nodded: "Oh, from the perspective of time, this young man can be ruled out." Yang Yue smiled slightly, and said to the manager of the security department, "Then I'm leaving." The manager of the security department said: "Okay, okay, please take care of the training." Pan Yulong was still in a daze, not knowing why Yang Yue suddenly stepped forward.He looked at the back of Yang Yue walking out of the office with suspicious eyes, and watched her smile back before she went out, intentionally or unintentionally. Tang Doudou was washing his face at home, and Liu Xun stood aside and questioned: "So, you really don't know about Boss Ma's beating?" Tang Doudou raised his head, his face splashed: "I really don't know, I don't know how I got home after we had dinner yesterday. Did you send me back?" "Oh, I don't know who it was last night. I knocked on Boss Ma's door and beat Boss Ma when he entered. You said that Boss Ma suffered this for no reason because of you. Is he wronged? You Hurry up and follow me to the hospital, he is seriously injured, let's go and calm him down." "Really! Where is the injury?" The public relations manager of Wancheng Hotel, together with Yang Yue, came to the hospital to express condolences to Boss Ma on behalf of the hotel.As soon as they walked into Boss Ma's single room with flowers and fruit baskets, they saw Liu Xun and Tang Doudou sitting in front of the bed. The manager of the public relations department smiled and said, "You are Mr. Ma Shilun. We are from the public relations department of Wancheng Hotel. We are here to see you on behalf of Wancheng Hotel." Boss Ma couldn't bow his body on the bed, but he still expressed his thanks: "Ah, Wancheng Hotel, thank you, what department are you from?" Manager of the PR Department: "We are from the PR Department, and we express our deep sympathy for the unhappiness you experienced during your stay at the hotel. We are here to express our condolences, and to see what else you need us to do for you?" Boss Ma, who was calm at first, burst into anger again, and said: "You don't have to do anything, just find out the murderer! I am a frequent customer of your hotel, and I can't even guarantee my safety when I live in your hotel." , you are still a well-known five-star hotel in the country, are you not afraid of smashing the brand?" The manager of the public relations department was obviously at a loss: "We have done a serious investigation of those two people who hit people, and we haven't found any results so far..." Boss Ma said loudly: "Those two people, I can be sure they are from your restaurant, at least one of them must be! And... hey, I remembered! It seems to be the person who delivered food to our restaurant yesterday, that is him , he hit me!" The manager of the public relations department said: "Oh, the person you mentioned is an intern in our hotel. We also conducted a special investigation on him, and he has been ruled out." "Excluded? Why did you exclude him? You didn't let me take a look. Why did you exclude him!" Yang Yue interrupted at this time: "Mr. Ma, the person you are talking about is Pan Yulong, a college student who was just recruited by the administrative club. He stayed with me after he got off the night shift last night. It is impossible for him to have time to do it." about that." Boss Ma asked suspiciously, "Stay with you?" Yang Yue said: "That's right, he is my friend. We got off work together at ten o'clock last night, and we didn't break up until midnight." Boss Ma was stunned. Tang Doudou, who was sitting on the side, was also startled when he heard the words, and couldn't help but look up and down at Yang Yue, his eyes full of surprise. The manager of the public relations department said: "Yes, this Miss Yang is also from the public relations department of our hotel. The restaurant waiter you mentioned is her boyfriend." Tang Doudou looked straight at Yang Yue, and Yang Yue seemed to feel the scorching heat of that gaze, and couldn't help casting a puzzled glance at Tang Doudou. The manager of the public relations department continued to explain: "The two of them stayed together last night, and in the end it was our Miss Yang who sent her boyfriend home. Mr. Ma, you may have been a little excited at the time, and you also had a drink last night. There are quite a few bars, so it’s possible that you misread them. Besides, these young people are all about the same size and look, so it’s normal to misread them.” Boss Ma was also a little vague, and asked half-believingly: "Really?... I drank a lot of wine yesterday..." The scene relaxed, and an imperceptible smile appeared on the corner of Yang Yue's mouth.Tang Doudou's anger was gradually written on his face. Pan Yulong got off work, walked out of the staff entrance, and met Yang Yue again on the street. Yang Yue stood in a conspicuous place, wondering if she intended to wait for him, when she saw Pan Yulong approaching, she took the initiative to say hello first: "Are you going home?" Then she flagged down a taxi and said, "I'll give you a ride." Pan Yulong thought for a while and got into Yang Yue's car. The taxi drove towards Pan Yulong's house. When the two of them were silent for a while on the road, Pan Yulong looked out the window and spoke first. Pan Yulong asked, "Why help me?" Yang Yue said calmly: "No reason," Pan Yulong said: "Everything has a reason." Yang Yue smiled at him: "Many things I have done often have no reason." Pan Yulong stopped talking and did not continue.The two were silent for a while, and Yang Yue spoke instead. "Didn't you say that Wancheng Hotel is the best choice for you to realize your ideals and develop your career? Are you really not afraid of being fired from the hotel for this?" Pan Yulong didn't answer. Yang Yue was curious, and asked again: "Are you a troublemaker?" Pan Yulong shook his head and said, "No." Yang Yue asked: "Then why did you beat that customer?" Pan Yulong said, "Because of that man... because he bullies girls." Yang Yue turned her head and looked at Pan Yulong: "Is it a girl you know?" Pan Yulong kept the words in his mouth and didn't answer. Yang Yue asked again: "It feels great to be a flower protector, doesn't it?" Pan Yulong remained silent. Yang Yue smiled slightly: "It was so late yesterday, where did you call the helper?" Pan Yulong was bored for a while, and then said: "She is my neighbor... and that person's partner. They are partners in a dance group, and they are like brothers." Looking at Pan Yulong's honest face, Yang Yue felt relieved in her heart. She smiled happily, "Oh, you are neighbors. That's right, you guys are kind to me if you do something for your friend!" The taxi stopped at the entrance of the small courtyard, Pan Yulong got off, and Yang Yue also got out from the back door and changed to the front seat.When she was about to open the front door of the taxi, Pan Yulong thanked her again. "Yang Yue, I don't know how to thank you, I don't know... how do you want me to thank you." "Don't be so polite, please. Anyway, I will pass by here when I go back. It doesn't cost much to pick you up..." "I don't mean your ride, I mean..." "Speaking a good word for you doesn't cost much." The two stood silently across the bus for a while, Yang Yue smiled, opened the door and got on the bus. The taxi drove away. This "lingering" farewell at the gate of the small courtyard was clearly seen by Tang Doudou in front of his window.She saw Pan Yulong and Yang Yue standing at the gate of the small courtyard talking, and she saw the two of them silently parting from each other.Tang Doudou closed the window facing the stairs with a bang when she saw Pan Yulong watching the taxi go away and turning to enter the courtyard. The sound of closing the window made Pan Yulong stop walking into the courtyard for a moment, and then continued to walk towards the stairs in doubt. Tang Doudou walked back to the bedroom from the window, sat on the bed and was angry alone, when he heard someone knocking on the door, he rushed over and opened the door angrily.Contrary to her expectations, she saw A Peng standing at the door. A Peng walked in and asked with concern: "Doudou, why didn't you go to dance practice today? The coach asked me to come and see, are you still feeling well?" Seeing that it was Ah Peng, Tang Doudou vented his anger, turned around and walked back to the bedroom, and said hastily, "I drank too much yesterday, and my head still hurts." A Peng asked: "Do you want to go to the hospital?" Tang Doudou replied: "No..." After thinking for a while, he looked up at A Peng who was standing at the door of the bedroom, and suddenly asked: "Last night... did you go to Wancheng Hotel?" A Peng hesitated for a moment, then nodded: "Yes, I'll pick you up, you're drunk." Tang Doudou asked: "Did you hit that boss Ma?" A Peng didn't speak. Tang Doudou blamed: "Why are you beating someone?" Apeng's anger towards Boss Ma is obviously still lingering: "He took advantage of your drunkenness and put you on his bed. That guy named Ma is not a good guy at first sight!" Tang Doudou was stunned for a moment, and said half-believingly: "Impossible...he put me on his bed? How is this possible! I came back to sleep in my own bed yesterday!" Just as A Peng was about to explain, Tang Doudou continued At this time, they all saw that Pan Yulong had already walked up the stairs and appeared at the door of Tang's house. Tang Doudou stared at Pan Yulong unfriendlyly, and asked coldly: "Along, that boss Ma said that you and A Peng beat him together yesterday, do you know?" Pan Yulong glanced at A Peng and didn't know how to answer for a while. Tang Doudou said coldly: "I know, you were wronged. In fact, your interest is not in Boss Ma at all. Am I right?" Pan Yulong was about to answer, but Ah Peng spoke first: "Boss Ma was beaten by me alone, and I was responsible for everything. This matter has nothing to do with Aaron." Tang Doudou turned his back to Pan Yulong and asked, "Aaron, what did you do after work last night?" Pan Yulong glanced at A Peng again and said, "I'm going home." Tang Doudou asked again: "Did you go home after work, or did you go home alone?" Pan Yulong didn't understand what Tang Doudou wanted to ask, so he tried to persuade him: "Doudo, you were really drunk last night, don't drink like this in the future, it's very dangerous for a girl to get drunk." Tang Doudou wanted to cry, tears welled up in his eyes, but there was a sneer on the corner of his mouth.She looked back at Pan Yulong and said, "Sometimes, it's better to be drunk than awake!" She glanced at A Peng again and said, "I'm sorry, I'm not awake yet, I'm going to sleep." After finishing speaking, Tang Doudou closed the bedroom door with a "bang". The two boys were shut outside the door, one was standing in the living room, the other was standing at the door, looking at each other, there was some embarrassment in each other's eyes, and it seemed that they both knew it. Ah Peng finally opened his mouth and said to Pan Yulong: "She doesn't like barbaric people. In her eyes, I am a person who fights every now and then. You are not." Pan Yulong nodded appreciatively and said, "Thank you." In the early morning, the gray sun rose from the city's horizon, and the small courtyard on Shiban Street gradually faded from the haze of dawn.Pan Yulong got up on time to wash up, and then walked out of his house. The main house where Tang Doudou lives seems to be still sleeping. In fact, Tang Doudou had already woken up. She heard the sound of Pan Yulong locking the door of the hut on the left, jumped up from the bed, ran from the bedroom to the door with bare feet, gently unlocked the door, and then tiptoed back to the bed to pretend to be asleep. , waiting for Pan Yulong to come and knock on the door. Pan Yulong locked the door and walked along the corridor to the door of Tang's house. He stood up and wanted to knock on the door, but after a moment of hesitation, he put his hand down again.He turned around and walked to the stairs, and went downstairs step by step. Tang Doudou was waiting on the bed, when she heard Pan Yulong's footsteps pause in front of the door, and then heard him coming downstairs.She lay on the bed stunned for a while, then angrily got out of bed with bare feet, ran to the window of the outer room, saw Pan Yulong's back appearing in the yard, and closed the window tightly with a "bang". Pan Yulong had just walked to the gate of the courtyard when he heard the sound of the window being closed upstairs.He looked back, the doors and windows of Tang's house were closed, and there was no sound.He turned his head suspiciously and walked out of the courtyard. Tang Doudou got up, brushed her teeth angrily in front of the mirror, and when the water cup was filled with water, the faucet was turned too hard, and the water splashed back from the water cup, splashing her clothes.Tang Doudou hurriedly pulled a towel to wipe it, but the water glass fell to the ground and shattered before it could be stabilized.Tang Doudou was stunned for a long time, feeling that everything in the world was against her, she became angry and threw the towel into the pool. Tang Doudou picked up the fragments of the glass on the ground, and accidentally cut her finger again. Angrily, she threw the broken glass she picked up on the ground again. At this time, Pan Yulong also walked into the hotel's locker room listlessly, took off his coat, and hung it on the hook of the locker. Unexpectedly, the clothes did not catch and fell down.He picked it up and hung it up again, and the clothes fell to the floor again.Angrily, Pan Yulong picked up the clothes and hung them on the hooks. The hung clothes fell down again Pan Yulong irritatedly stuffed the clothes into the cabinet. The cabinet was so small that a piece of clothing came out. Pan Yulong pushed it in again, and then slammed the door of the cabinet forcibly. He was in a bad mood! The four boys of the "real" dance group are rehearsing in the classroom, and for some reason, the dance and music without Tang Doudou are kind of dull and dull.The coach was also listlessly doing routine instructions, and everyone's faces looked extremely tired. Wang Fendou was the first to see that Tang Doudou appeared at the door of the classroom at some point. "Doudou?" A Peng's gaze immediately rushed to the door. The music continued, but the boys stopped dancing, and everyone went up to ask questions. "Doudou is here, why don't you come in." "Are you alright, is your head still hurting?" "Are you all right?" "If you are not in good health, rest for another two days." Only Ah Peng shrank back and didn't say a word. Tang Doudou responded without emotion: "It's okay, I'm fine." The coach also came over and asked, "Tang Doudou, are you feeling better? If not, you can rest for another two days." Tang Doudou said perfunctorily, "No, it's fine." Tang Doudou walked to the edge of the field and changed his clothes and shoes.Ah Peng walked over and silently helped her tidy up the changed clothes and handed her the towel. Tang Doudou looked at A Peng gratefully, and said in a low voice: "Thank you." A Peng avoided his eyes in embarrassment. Shengyuan Yinhai Company hosted a banquet for the officials of Yinhai Development Zone in a suite of the banquet hall. Before the banquet started, Huang Wanjun, the president of Shengyuan Group Yinhai Company, was sitting on the sofa in the reception area, talking cordially with the leaders of Yinhai Development Zone.In the banquet hall, a club director was leading several waiters to arrange the flowers and plants on the table. Tong Jiayan walked in, apologized politely to the guests, and then held the menu and asked Huang Wanjun to have a look at it in a low voice. Huang Wanjun looked at the menu and nodded in approval: "Old Tong, the dishes you served last time were not of high quality. Today I invite the leaders of the Yinhai Development Zone to make the dishes better today. If the VIPs I invite are not satisfied , I’m going to file a complaint with your boss.” Tong Jiayan nodded calmly and smiled, coping with it with ease: "No problem, you know our specialty dishes here!" Huang Wanjun said again: "Also, after dinner in the evening, I heard that the spa club here is very difficult to book, you can book a room for me first." Tong Jiayan nodded: "Okay, I'll do it right away." Huang Wanjun turned his head and said to several leaders in the development zone: "The spa club of Wancheng Hotel is the best in Yinhai. Not only is the service good, but it is also clean and hygienic. There is no such... ah, those messy things. Don't worry! They are the inspection-free unit of the Public Security Bureau." "Ah, we've heard of it. Places like this in five-star hotels are generally more healthy and decent." Tong Jiayan walked out of the banquet hall and saw Pan Yulong was about to bring tea in outside the door, so he whispered: "Hey, this hall is for VIP guests, please be careful, don't cause any accidents." Pan Yulong nodded and walked into the banquet hall. 潘玉龙小心地为主宾一一上茶，主宾们已经开始谈论开发区公园项目的事情。 开发区领导发话了：“主题公园项目的这块地皮，我们跟韩国的时代公司已经谈了很久，双方的意见已经基本接近一致了。你们现在上来竞争不是不可以，但时间上可能有点晚。韩国时代公司为了这个项目做了长期准备，光一个规划设计方案就花费数百万美元巨资，搞了数年之久。” 黄万钧说：“不过，我听说时代公司内部……最近好像很混乱。” 开发区领导点头，说：“对，时代公司的董事长最近突然去世了，他们公司内部可能有一个重新调整的过程。” 黄万钧笑笑，说：“恐怕远远没有那么简单吧。时代公司的这场调整，很可能是父系家族和母系家族之间的一场激烈战争，恐怕……会旷日持久。” 开发区的领导说：“听说是由金成焕的独生女儿金志爱接班。” 黄万钧说：“金志爱握有金成焕的遗嘱，但金成焕的前妻和他前妻的势力在时代公司握有实权。据说，他的前妻金载花已经向法院起诉，认为金成焕非法剥夺了他儿子的继承权。在国外，公司的资产纠纷和遗产纠纷一旦进入司法程序，官司一打就是三年五载。在诉讼期间，公司的运行肯定会受到影响，特别是巨额的海外投资，很可能会受到法律的限制。” 潘玉龙沏茶倒水一轮，托着茶壶退下。他在离开这间宴会厅时，听到开发区的头头叹息了一声：“哦，不过，时代公司对主题公园项目的前期投入已经很大了，一旦中止，他们将蒙受巨大损失，而且这个项目对任何投资者来说，都有足够的魅力！” 黄万钧不置可否地点了点头，面含微笑地说道：“让我们静观其变吧！” 潘玉龙回到小院，停在了汤豆豆家的门口。他犹豫片刻，伸手推推屋门，发现屋门已被锁上了。潘玉龙转过身来，又朝楼梯口走去。 潘玉龙来到刘迅家附近的那所小学，他看到当作排练场的那个教室还亮着灯光。潘玉龙走近教室，透过窗户发现“真实”舞蹈组合的成员们早已离去。刘迅和编舞的老师一边聊着一边走出教室的屋门。 刘迅看见潘玉龙站在门口，便疑惑地发问：“你是找汤豆豆吧？他们已经走了。” 刘迅说完，陪着老师继续聊着，向学校的门口走去。潘玉龙板着脸站在他的身后，开口叫了一声：“老刘！” 刘迅和编舞老师都停下脚步，回头看他。潘玉龙看了老师一眼，张口欲言，又停住没说。刘迅似乎猜到了什么，转脸对老师说道：“你先走吧，咱们明天见。” 老师点了点头，一个人朝校外走去。刘迅这才转过头来，表情淡淡地向潘玉龙问道：“你有什么事吗？” 潘玉龙正色说：“老刘，请你以后不要再给汤豆豆介绍什么赞助商了。你应该算是她的兄长了，你应该保护她，应该对她负责！” 刘迅脸色难看，既尴尬又不无恼火，他吸着气出口反问：“你想对她负责对吧，请问你是汤豆豆的什么人呀？” 潘玉龙嗑巴了一下，说：“我是她的邻居。” 刘迅冷笑：“邻居？邻居不至于这么关心吧！我告诉你小伙子，汤豆豆是有男朋友的，啊！你还是悠着点吧！” 潘玉龙愣了，一时语塞。刘迅转身移步，向学校的大门走去。潘玉龙在他身后跟了一步，忍不住大声问道：“嘿，谁是她的男朋友？” 刘迅站了下来，回头笑了一下：“我们舞蹈组合里，人人都喜欢她！你不是说你是她的邻居吗？那好啊，那你就本本分分做一个邻居吧。” 刘迅说完，转身走了，把潘玉龙一个人扔在了教室的门口。 潘玉龙走到公用电话旁，急速地拨完电话，听筒内却传来一个女人慢条斯理的声音：“您拨打的电话暂时无人接听，请稍后再拨。” 潘玉龙用力挂上听筒，神情黯然，踽踽独行，突然在一个酒吧的屋檐下停下脚步，他似乎有所预见地，慢慢转过头去，借着落地窗里暗红的灯光，他看见汤豆豆一个人坐在酒吧的角落里，独自买醉。 潘玉龙走进酒吧，走到了汤豆豆的面前。汤豆豆知道潘玉龙来了，继续自斟自饮，故意视而不见。潘玉龙伸手夺过了汤豆豆手中的啤酒杯，皱着眉头好言相劝： “我不是跟你说过吗，女孩子喝醉了酒很危险的，走吧，回家吧。” 潘玉龙把汤豆豆从座位上拉起来，一位服务员走上前：“哎，她还没结账呢！” 潘玉龙一只手拉着汤豆豆，另一只手伸进裤兜，汤豆豆甩开潘玉龙，自己掏出钱来，递到服务员手上。 汤豆豆和潘玉龙一前一后走进小院，走上楼梯。汤豆豆顾自走在前面，对身后的潘玉龙不理不睬。 潘玉龙不满地追问：“你这到底是怎么啦，嘿，你这到底是怎么啦？” 汤豆豆低声回了句：“没怎么。” “没怎么干吗生气啊。” 这时两人已经来到了二楼走廊上，汤豆豆突然站住了，背对潘玉龙说了句：“潘玉龙你背着我做了什么事？如果你是一个男子汉的话，你应该有勇气站出来！” 潘玉龙自然不会想到汤豆豆是为了杨悦而任性呕气，他以为她还是因为他打了马老板而不敢承认的那件事情。于是他思忖片刻，抬头说道：“好，我承认。我是跟阿鹏一起打了马老板。我并没想让阿鹏替我承担责任……” 汤豆豆愣在了前面，转过身来的目光充满疑问：“你打了马老板？那天晚上……你也打了马老板？” “对，我打了他。” “你跟阿鹏一起？” "right!" “你也会动手打人？为什么？” “因为那个马老板对你不怀好意！” 汤豆豆看着潘玉龙，突然走过来一下把他抱住。潘玉龙被抱得一时摸不着头脑，但汤豆豆的脸上，却分明重新绽开了甜蜜的笑容。 酒店的会议室内正在召开总经理办公会，总经理、驻店经理和各部门的总监围坐在一张宽大的会议桌前。 销售部经理发言：“近期饭店的重要活动不多，但有两批客人请各部门务必重视。一个是德国汉森公司的董事会会议，大概用房三十间左右，这批客人用餐和其他消费都是自费的，平均消费肯定比较高，对服务的要求也会比较高。还有就是下周韩国时代公司现任董事局主席，也就是时代公司的现任董事长要来银海。前几次我们成功地接待了韩国时代公司的商务代表团和执行总裁，时代的银海分公司对这些接待安排一直都有好评，这一次是接待他们最大的老板，所以绝对不可以出错。近一两天我们会把接待要求和注意事项的书面通知发到各部门去，各部门如果觉得有什么需要协调的，请尽早跟我们销售部联系……” 总经理插话：“这一次时代公司的董事长可能要长住一段时间，所以客务部一定要选好贴身管家。这个贴身管家的业务水平、形象气质和服务意识，都要选最好的。” 客务总监应声答道：“销售部已经跟我们打了招呼，我们已经选定了一个人，这个人叫杨益德。是银海旅游服务中专毕业的，从客房服务员干起，做过领班，已经有九年的工龄，做贴身管家也有三年了。做以前拿到了旅游饭店业协会的贴身管家培训班的毕业证书，去年 又到香港君悦酒店受训了半年，经验和技能应该都没问题。 " 总经理问道：“啊，是去年到香港君悦受训的那一批呀。” 客务总监答道：“对。” 总经理点了点头：“好。” 客务总监、佟家彦、新选定的贴身管家杨益德和两位管家部的主管正在万乘大酒店行政俱乐部里开会，研究对时代公司董事长的服务方案。潘玉龙端进几瓶矿泉水来，他一边为头头们倒水，一边无意地听着佟家彦的发言。 佟家彦说：“前厅部把时代公司董事长的房间排出来了，是2801房。客人的早餐根据销售部的说法，估计一般会在房间内吃。房间内派送的报纸除了韩文报纸之外，还要派一份英文报纸。鲜花和植物都安排在客人入店当天提前进房……” 客务总监插话说：“你们要和绿化科提前把花选好，把花和植物按照需要摆放的位置提前选好。” Everyone nodded. 杨益德一边做着记录，一边问道：“客人的洗衣服务怎么处理？” “无论客人是否要求加快，一律按快件处理。”客务总监说完停顿了一下，又继续说道：“这次任务我们的分工就这样定了。这是客人第一次来，对这个客人的习惯我们还都不太熟悉，所以必须格外小心。过一两天时代银海公司可能会派人来，具体和我们商谈接待的方案。你们要把方案准备得充分一点。” 众人称是。 盛元集团董事长杜盛元家的书房内，一台录音机正在播放着《真实》的乐曲。杜盛元仰在一张英式的沙发里，双眼微闭似乎睡去。 杜家六十多岁的老保姆李阿姨端着杜盛元的茶杯从门外进来，她把茶杯放在沙发旁边的茶几上，轻轻叫了一声： “杜总。” 杜盛元一动不动。李阿姨俯身下来，又轻唤了一声：“杜总……” 杜盛元依然没有反应。屋里除了《真实》如泣如诉的流淌，没有其它声音。李阿姨用手摇摇杜盛元的肩膀，杜盛元双目不睁。李阿姨慌了，直起身子向门外跑去。 “快，快，快来人啊！杜总又犯病啦！快来人啊，杜总又犯病啦！” 几个杜家的工作人员和杜圣元的秘书从不同的屋子里跑了出来，连同一个护士模样的中年女人，一起跑进了杜盛元的书房。 一辆轿车在医院住院部的大门口停了下来，杜耀杰和他的夫人从车里钻出，守候在门口的两个盛元集团的干部见杜耀杰赶到，匆匆迎了上来。其中一人向杜耀杰说了句什么，引领着他们向大楼内快步走去。
