Chapter 26: The Second World (2) [Part 1]
âYou can also make a call for me and ask my assistant to come over.â Ji Mo opened her mouth and said her phoneâs number aloud. She then breathed a sigh of relief when she heard the sound of the woman in front of her dialling the number.
As of now, the condition of her body couldnât be any more uncomfortable, mostly because of the after-effects of drinking a lot of alcohol. She made up her mind not to drink if she can in the future. Anyway, her mission is to live until her life ends. Thereâs no need for her to achieve great success and become a well-known figure. It will be fine as long she survives this life and doesnât starve to death.
Working hard until she is half-dead is also not necessary. Ji Mo had already decided that after passing the danger awaiting for her, she will peacefully become a starlet and spend her days living like a salted fish until she grows old.
âMiss, the phone number you gave is not responding.â The womanâs voice rang out, causing Ji Mo to come back to her senses. She thought of how the phoneâs battery was low before, and shutting down at this time was nothing ordinary.
She searched for the assistantâs phone number in her memory, but discovered that she couldnât find anything. At usual times, the assistant was always with her, so even though the phone number was saved on the phone, she usually had no recollection of it. The only phone numbers left that she could remember after searching through the memory were her parentsâ phone numbers.
âIn that case, then can I trouble miss to call the staff for me? My room number is 508, just that I donât have my key card with me. But Iâve been staying here for quite some time now, so the staff should be very familiar with my face.â
âAlright.â
Hearing the other partyâs tone that didnât hold even a trace of impatience, Ji Moâs mood relaxed a lot. Look, this world is a peaceful world, but thereâs still many people who have good hearts.
The woman in front of her said a few words about the situation here, and it didnât take long for two staff to arrive. Ji Mo lifted her face, and they really recognized her.
She had no idea if it was because the two hotel staff were male, but when they escorted Ji Mo up to the fifth floor, the woman followed them behind all the time. Listening to the crisp and patterned sound of high heels, Ji Mo felt slightly relieved.
Are girls nowadays so kind-hearted and attentive?
The hotel door was not locked, and the staff easily opened it using a key card. Xia Qing, who was still awake until now, obviously discovered the situation and turned to look at the door with guarded eyes.
Xia Qing was not only awake, but was even leaning on a chair. It could be seen at a glance that her mind was still a little hazy from drinking. Ji Mo took a quick look at Xia Qing from the corner of her eyes, and surprisingly met the other partyâs eyes that were also looking at her and felt some surprise in her heart.
The original owner shouldnât have guessed it wrong. What happened tonight should have been done intentionally by Xia Qing. It was as if the other party has predicted the events that will happen, causing her attitude to take a drastic turn, as she willingly gave up her room to the original owner.
Ji Mo caught the surprise and then the slightly nervous look of Xia Qing. And her eyes showing, how are you so lucky? In the memory of the original owner, even though Xia Qing was a little arrogant and more competitive, she shouldnât have been able to do a thing like plotting against someone.
âJi Mo, how come youâre here?â Xia Qing quickly settled her raging emotions and acted clueless as she asked Ji Mo, âAre you sober now? Just now, you were so dizzy from drinking and the elevator broke down by chance, so the others let us exchange rooms.â
Xia Qing briefly told the story, and incidentally explained why she did not sleep: âOriginally, I was also very dizzy from drinking but Iâm currently in an unfamiliar room, so even though my body is extremely exhausted, thereâs no way to fall asleep.â
Speaking in this way, it was as if she suffered a grievance just to help Ji Mo.
âI also had the same feeling when I was in your room.â Ji Mo didnât expose her lie. It was useless even if she said it. Nothing would happen and it would only make people think that she was being unreasonable, âI woke up in a confused state and discovered something was not right. Thinking that I entered a wrong room, I quickly got out. The problem is, my body was very weak at that time, so I canât go to my own room by myself. Luckily, I met this kind-hearted lady and she helped me.â
âOkay, we can now exchange our room back.â Ji Mo suggested, âYou can also get a good nightâs sleep.â
Despite the fact that Xia Qing was not the culprit who killed the original owner, she still knew what will happen in that room. So how come she didnât stop and just look indifferently as the original owner was delivered to the tigerâs mouth? The mind is very dark.
Xia Qing didnât expect for this to happen. She couldnât help but think in her heart, Ji Moâs luck is really good, to the point that she even got away safely. She even sobered up in the middle and woke up just to find she was not in her own room, giving her the chance to escape.
Thinking about the time before she was reborn, she was under influence of the alcohol and was threatened by that disgusting boss, who later also took a lot of indecent photos of her as a means of warning to her. She has no money or power, and she could only be forced to become the other partyâs lover. From the perspective of that boss, she is a plaything, not only for him to play, but also for others to play with. As an exchange for doing that, she was given a little bit of resources, which was not even as good as Ji Moâs.
Every time she was pressed by those fat bodies, she wondered, at that time in that remote hotel, if she said yes to the othersâ suggestion of exchanging rooms with Ji Mo, would she not have encountered this?
With her superior looks, adding to her own efforts, can she still not get a place in this circle? But her life was thoroughly destroyed, and she could never go back to the time when she was still clean and innocent.
In front of the audience and fans, she took the route of a cold female artist, but in front of those greasy middle-aged men, she was the most lowly thing. They often say things to humiliate her, saying, what cold goddess, in front of them, isnât she just a lowly thing?
