C177

The hotel had a total of seventy-eight floors, and the room Susie had booked was fifty-four.

When Donson received the news that Su Qizhi had arrived in Cloud City, he already knew that she would do something, but he didn't expect her to be able to get close to him even if he was guarding her.

He had even used a move to wait for him, something that he did not expect.

However, he had been too careless and had sent a text message to Su Qizhi, thinking that if it was his personal guard, he would be able to deal with any situation as soon as it happened and would not give anyone a chance to get close to her. Thus, he simply didn't pay attention to her at all, only glancing at her briefly, but he would never have forgotten her at all, otherwise he wouldn't have gotten out of the car the moment he thought of it.

By the time he reached the 54th floor, his black coat was already soaked in sweat. Despite years of training, his physique was countless times stronger than an ordinary person's, and climbing to the 50th floor in one go had consumed almost all of his strength.

His chest seemed to be on fire as scorching heat and pain coexisted.

However, he did not dare to slack off. After a few short breaths, he walked towards the room.

Before he could get close, he saw his subordinates lying on the ground in a mess.

His face was already extremely unsightly. The veins on the back of his tightly clenched fist bulged, as if his blood was about to spurt out in the next second.

He examined the few people on the ground briefly and found that there were no major problems, but they had all fainted.

Townsend took out his cell phone and quickly made a call. He ordered the people below to split into two groups. One group was rushing over, while the other one was waiting for news and was ready to move out.

As he spoke, he pushed open the door and walked into the room with light footsteps, sticking to the wall.

As he had expected, everyone in the room had disappeared.

His thick black eyebrows were tightly locked. After giving his instructions to the phone, he turned around and went downstairs.

After finding the hotel manager and identifying himself, he quickly obtained permission to enter the hotel's main control room.

Naturally, the hotel manager did not dare to be negligent and respectfully followed by his side.

"Call up all the surveillance footage on the 54th floor ten minutes ago. Hurry."

Although the staff member sitting in the control room didn't know what was happening, he only felt an invisible pressure on him when he saw the hotel manager and his unusual physique. He quickly replied, "Okay …" "Alright."

And then, he began to operate at high speed.

Very soon, the screen showed the scene of a group of people fighting. When the group fell, the rest of them quickly left the room and entered the elevator.

Even though the resolution of the surveillance footage was extremely low, Townsend was able to recognize Pei Luoyi, who was in the midst of a group of people, half supported by her head lowered.

His face was cold to the point of freezing. He controlled his raging anger and ordered the man to transfer the surveillance to the underground garage. After seeing the car and license plate numbers clearly, he turned around and walked away with a murderous look on his face.

"..."

Aston Martin was speeding through the night on the highway that led directly to Cloud City.

In order to get there in the shortest time possible, the speeding car was temporarily transferred from somewhere in the port city.

Shen Xiao looked up at the rearview mirror. The man was in the back seat, leaning against the seat with his eyes closed. It was hard to tell what he was thinking.

However, the temperature inside the carriage was still close to freezing point.

In the steady stream of low pressure coming from the back of the car, Shen Shuo was able to reach the bottom of the oil door. At this time, there weren't many cars on the highway, and he quickly overtook one or two of them.

Since this matter was critical, he did not dare to be negligent. Originally, the two-hour journey had forced him to return to Cloud City in an hour.

The car pulled into the center of the city and slowed down.

Gong Yan took out his phone and dialed Pei Luoyi's number with his slender knuckles.

Just as he placed the phone to his ear, he said, "Hello, the number you have dialed is turned off …"

The instant the ice-cold female voice rang in his ears, his handsome forehead suddenly tightened, and the expression on his handsome face gradually became grave.

Shen Wu carefully observed his expression in the rearview mirror, not daring to make a sound.

Gong Yan called Tang Sen directly.

On this side, all of Townsend's attention was focused on the traffic monitor. His phone rang at this moment.

He accepted it without a second thought, and his gaze fell onto the monitor screens. He didn't even have time to take a glance at it.

"Where is she?"

The cold voice of the man suddenly rang in his ears, and all the muscles on his body suddenly tensed up.

Gong Yan waited for a second, but the other side still didn't show any signs of answering. The cold and malicious look on his face was already on the verge of appearing.

"I ask you, where is she?"

Townsend knew he couldn't argue. Men were lost before his eyes, and it was only natural for a man to blame him for it.

"Young Master Gong," he was quiet for a moment before replying truthfully, "Madame is currently in the hands of that woman. I'm currently in the traffic station and am currently investigating …"

"Townsend." Two short syllables seemed to pop out from the man's throat, wrapped in ice.

The silence created an atmosphere devoid of smoke, yet filled with explosive aura.

The line under Townsend's chin tightened, and he didn't dare to make a sound.

"Found it!" "Mr. Tang."

Before he could finish his sentence, a police officer in front of him pointed at the screen and indicated for him to go look.

After an hour of searching, they finally found some clues. The police officer was overjoyed, and even his voice became a few decibels louder.

Gong Yan naturally heard it through the phone. He suppressed his anger and said, "Find the location and send it to me. I'll go there directly."

"Yes."

"..."

West of Cloud City, abandoned factory.

Within the large patch of reeds, light could be seen faintly from the mottled walls.

When Pei Luoyi woke up, she only had one thought in mind, heat.

It was unknown whether the tiny opening of her eyes had seen the bright incandescent lamp above her head, bright as day, which had caused such an illusion, or whether her body was truly heating up.

"He woke up so quickly?"

The light in front of her eyes was suddenly replaced by a woman's face.

Pei Luoyi rested for a moment before she completely lifted her heavy eyelids, allowing her to clearly see the woman's facial features.

She was laughing.

"What are you trying to do …"

His body was weak and hot.

It was similar to the feeling when one was in heat waves.

She felt thirsty and her throat ached.

"What do I want to do? You'll know soon enough." Suizhi smiled at her weakness, turned away from her, and walked to the other side.

Pei Luoyi watched as she walked to the side and picked up a bottle of mineral water, feeling even more thirsty. It was only at this moment that she noticed her surroundings.

It must have been abandoned for too long. The original iron wall began to rust, revealing large mottled marks. This increased the shocking atmosphere.
