Chapter 598 The heartthrob who lost his halo in a dating simulation (7)
In the guesthouse room, Mu Zhou looked at the man who was standing in front of him.
She felt somewhat intimidated by the man's imposing height and imposing presence.
In particular, her clothes were disheveled at this moment.
The man stared into her eyes, and realizing that she was probably not lying, he raised his hand to brace himself against the wall behind her.
With wide eyes, she took down a wooden plaque from the wall.
Mu Zhou almost thought she was being pinned against the wall, and was about to scream and fight him to the death when a wooden sign was shoved in front of her.
She subconsciously read out the words engraved on it.
"The Study Room... Fu Hanyan?"
Each room in this guesthouse has a different name, and each guest receives a free wooden plaque engraved with the room name and their own name, which they can take with them as a souvenir when they check out.
Mu Zhou remembered that the receptionist had said that the carved wooden plaque would be delivered to her room in a little while.
She remembered that she stayed in Honglin's room.
She suddenly felt guilty, and her initial confidence gradually faded.
Then, following the man's finger, she looked at the words in the corner of the mirror next to her.
Study View Room.
So, she really did go into the wrong room...
Mu Zhou's cheeks flushed instantly.
She was so ashamed that she became incoherent:
"I'm sorry, I was in such a hurry that I went into the wrong room. My clothes were all wet and I wanted to change quickly, so I didn't notice the room number."
Once he realized he was wrong, Mu Zhou's arrogance vanished instantly.
"I'm leaving now."
She was about to leave when she suddenly remembered that her back was still wide open, so she quickly turned around to face Fu Hanyan and backed away.
She reached behind her back, trying to zip up the zipper, but the more anxious she became, the less she could manage it.
Under Fu Hanyan's gaze, she panicked terribly and, with a sudden burst of strength, broke the zipper.
Her face froze, and she stood there motionless.
Fu Hanyan threw his suit jacket onto the chair, loosened his tie with one hand, sat down, and stared at Mu Zhou with a leisurely air.
Mu Zhou's cheeks flushed, and she spoke shyly in a low voice:
"The zipper is broken. Could you please let me change my clothes here before I leave? You can go out for a moment."
This is someone else's room, and now they want to kick them out? Naturally, Mu Zhou can't be right to do so.
Fu Hanyan clearly thought so too.
He unbuttoned a few more buttons with one hand, his tone casual and indifferent:
No one lives on the second floor.
It means that no one will see her going out like this.
But Mu Zhou's eyes reddened with anxiety:
"But there must be surveillance cameras in the hallway, Mr. Fu, could you..."
"No."
Fu Hanyan refused decisively.
Mu Zhou's lips moved slightly, hesitating whether or not to drape the ethnic-style dress over her shoulders.
If the people in the monitoring room saw this, they would probably think she was crazy.
As she was trying to see if it would work, her phone suddenly rang.
The name "Shen Fang" appeared on the screen.
Fu Hanyan's eyes flickered slightly.
Afraid of being exposed, Mu Zhou grabbed her clothes and slowly crouched down to pick up her phone.
She didn't answer; she simply turned off her phone and waited for the other person to hang up before muting it.
Fu Hanyan pinched the bridge of his nose and said with his eyes closed:
Why didn't you answer?
Mu Zhou didn't want to talk to him, but then she thought that she needed his help and that maybe he would soften after hearing about her tragic experience.
So she recounted what had happened to her that day:
"Actually, I'm participating in a dating reality show. I'm filming it today. The person who just called is Shen Fang, the famous playboy in the entertainment industry. I'm going on a date with him today."
"He's such a nasty person. I don't know what I did to offend him, or if he's just a born bad guy. We were rafting, and before I could even get a firm grip on the handrail, he pushed the raft hard, and it capsized..."
Mu Zhou recounted all of Shen Fang's misdeeds.
Including the fact that he told himself to go back in five minutes.
"Five minutes? No way! He just wants to see me make a fool of myself."
Fu Hanyan's eyes flickered slightly.
He knew Shen Fang's personality better than anyone.
He took after his father completely.
Arrogant, presumptuous, and lawless.
He wasn't too happy when Fu Hanyan's sister married that man.
Such an unstable man is not worth entrusting your life to, nor can he support a family.
But his sister was head over heels in love and insisted on getting married no matter what.
As a result, the man didn't change his ways after marriage and started having affairs everywhere.
He's always surrounded by bad friends who spend their days drinking or engaging in all sorts of shameless behavior.
He eventually died in an accident during a high-speed car race.
That's right, Fu Hanyan is Shen Fang's uncle.
In Fu Hanyan's view, Shen Fang completely inherited his father's domineering and arrogant nature.
He had also heard about this program from his sister.
Originally, the older sister was quite happy, thinking that Shen Fang was finally willing to find a girlfriend.
Although the approach is a bit strange and too high-profile, it's a legitimate way of finding a girlfriend, so I'm very supportive.
Unexpectedly, he remained unchanged in his mischievous nature.
Seeing the girl awkwardly trying to wrap herself up with one hand, Fu Hanyan suddenly stood up.
He left the room in silence.
Mu Zhou stared blankly as he disappeared, then pursed her lips almost imperceptibly.
[Complete the male lead's romance quest; affection level increased to 5%]
Mu Zhou raised an eyebrow, took off her skirt completely, and slowly put on her ethnic costume.
Outside the door, Fu Hanyan called Shen Fang:
"Go home now."
He then hung up the phone before Shen Fang could speak.
Shen Fang's expression wasn't good either.
He felt somewhat annoyed and anxious.
More than ten minutes have passed, and Mu Zhou still hasn't returned.
She doesn't answer my calls, and she doesn't reply to messages from staff either.
The image of her swaying precariously before she left always echoed in his mind.
Could it be that she fainted somewhere?
With her aggressive demeanor, who knows what dangers might arise if she collapsed somewhere in this rugged mountain area.
Just as he was about to go look for him, he received a call from his uncle.
His uncle was the person he feared most.
His father passed away when he was seven years old. At that time, his older brother was already seventeen, and he was still a child.
His mother and grandparents felt sorry for him because he lost his father at a young age, so they doted on him.
Only his younger uncle, who was only a few years older than his brother, was particularly strict with him.
So he's been afraid of him since he was a child.
Now that he's calling, he doesn't dare disobey.
But he couldn't let go of Mu Zhou, and he couldn't help but feel agitated.
In the end, he didn't dare disobey his uncle and could only ask his assistant and staff to go find him immediately.
He quickly drove away.

After changing her clothes, Mu Zhou did not see Fu Hanyan in the corridor.
She replied to the director's message after returning to her room.
Sorry, I was feeling a little dizzy just now and rested for a bit. I'll be right back.
The director replied immediately:
No rush. We've cancelled the rest of the trip; we can just go back. You can come back after you've rested.
Mu Zhou smiled as he read the message.
She knew that it was Fu Hanyan who had called Shen Fang away.
She texted the director to let him know that he was still not feeling well and that since there were no more scheduled activities, she wanted to rent a room by the hour to rest and would go back by herself later.
