Chapter 55: Chapter 55 Threat
Chapter 55 -55 Threat
Lin Zhiyi followed the signs toward the private room.
Driver Zhang supported her, looking around, “Miss Lin, what if the manager doesn’t cooperate?”
The next second, Lin Zhiyi stopped outside the door of the private room, her face showing a newfound resolve.
“Today, whether he cooperates or not, I’ll make sure he has to!”
After speaking, she walked up to the emergency alarm used to evacuate crowds in the hotel and forcefully slammed it.
Instantly, the entire hotel filled with the sound of alarms, and everyone started running outside.
Lin Zhiyi and Driver Zhang, however, moved inward in search.
But even after searching the innermost private rooms, they found no trace, not even a familiar face.
“Miss Lin, we still haven’t found them.”
Lin Zhiyi’s palms were sweaty, and her body felt weak.
Could her rebirth still not be able to change the accident involving Liu He and Gong Shiyan?
Just as she became frantically anxious, a waiter burst out from a door.
Lin Zhiyi grabbed her by the arm and pointed at the door, asking, “What’s this place?”
“It’s a passage connected to the kitchen for staff to serve dishes more easily.”
Lin Zhiyi, thinking of something, rushed in without worrying about her aching feet.
Yet, she was disappointed again; the kitchen was in plain sight, with no possible hiding places.
That is until the sound of sniffling came from behind a nondescript door in the corner.
Lin Zhiyi stepped quickly toward it, stunned to find the words “Garbage Room” posted on the door.
Garbage Room!
Garbage Room!
Anger rising, Lin Zhiyi tried to pull the door open but couldn’t budge it.
Eventually, Driver Zhang kicked the door a few times, breaking the lock and opening it.
A stench billowed out immediately.
All the hotel’s kitchen waste was in there.
Gong Shiyan lay atop days-old spoiled food.
Liu He, with her hands and feet tied, lay beside Gong Shiyan, covered head to toe in the foul kitchen refuse.
Her mouth was stuffed with a hard bun. freewebnσvel.cøm
She, who always loved cleanliness and beauty, had never been in such a sorry state, her face smeared with grime, her eyes filled with tears and bloodshot from fright.
The moment she saw Lin Zhiyi, she sobbed and looked toward Gong Shiyan on the ground, having been trying desperately to move him with her body.
Afraid for his safety.
Lin Zhiyi bit her back teeth, “Mom, I’m here to save you!”
“Stop! Who dares!”
The manager appeared with four burly security guards.
He glared at Lin Zhiyi, baring his teeth, “Miss Lin, what do you think this place is? You come and go as you please, stir up unrest here, and think you can just walk away? Maybe you should stay and join them as an apology.”
Nobility?
Mrs. Song!
Song Wanqiu’s mother!
Lin Zhiyi blocked the door, reminding the manager, “Do you know who they are?”
But the manager snorted coldly, looking askance, “You are called ‘miss’ and really think you are a miss from the Gong Family? Even the Second Young Master has to look at the Third Young Master’s face outside, let alone you offending people you shouldn’t have.”
Lin Zhiyi was taken aback.
The manager took the chance to signal to the security guards, “Grab her!”
Seeing this, Driver Zhang immediately tried to protect Lin Zhiyi, but one could not fight against four, and he was quickly tripped by two of the guards.
The other two rushed toward Lin Zhiyi.
Lin Zhiyi grabbed a trash can and threw it, hitting a guard and buying time before she turned to head for the garbage room.
But with her injured foot, she couldn’t run and was easily caught by the guards who threw her out forcefully.
“Ugh!”
She grunted as she fell to the floor.
The manager, looking fierce, advanced toward her, raising his foot to stomp on Lin Zhiyi’s hand.
“Making trouble with your hands! I’ll show you what’s what!”
Just as his foot was about to come down, Lin Zhiyi didn’t even have the strength to get up.
Suddenly, the foot twisting oddly before her, the manager’s expression distorted for a few seconds before he screamed out in pain.
