Chapter 908 - 907: Erlang Spider-Man
Chu Shiyao closed her eyes and leaned against the car seat, pretending to take a nap, but in reality, her heart was in turmoil, very tense.In fact, she had no idea why Chu Ge just now didn't want her to speak, nor did she understand why he suggested going to a bath center. However, based on her trust in Chu Ge, she decided to go along with his decision.
Before long, the Maserati pulled up near a bath center with a very elegant facade. From afar, they could see the four large gilded words on the sign of the bath center, "Shui Lai Lidu."
The reason Chu Ge thought of this place was because it belonged to Chen Jue. He once heard Chen Jue mention it and didn't pay much attention at the time, but unexpectedly, it could come in handy now.
In a casual conversation with Chen Jue, Chen Jue proudly said that the hardware conditions here were absolutely first-rate, especially in terms of private rooms. In Lidu, there was no other place with bigger and better conditions than "Shui Lai Lidu."
For what Chu Ge had to do now, he didn't really care about the conditions of the private rooms at "Shui Lai Lidu," as long as it was "big" enough.
After parking the car, Chu Ge and Chu Shiyao walked into "Shui Lai Lidu," looking every bit like a close couple.
The Mercedes behind them stopped, and Chu Shiyao's bodyguard got out of the car, frowning as he took out his phone to request instructions, then quickly followed behind Chu Ge and Chu Shiyao.
When Chu Ge said at the front desk he wanted to book a luxury private room, the bodyguard walked a few steps faster and tapped Chu Ge on the shoulder from behind.
"Mr. Chu, may I have a word with you?"
Chu Ge looked at the bodyguard with a half-smiling expression, but before he could speak, Chu Shiyao impatiently raised her eyebrows.
"Wu Qing, are you insane? He doesn't know you that well; you think you can just have a word with him? Who do you think you are?"
The bodyguard Wu Qing smiled calmly, "Miss, I apologize, but there are indeed things I need to discuss with Mr. Chu alone."
Chu Shiyao grew more impatient, "Say what you need to say here, or stop bothering us. Don't be so annoying."
Even though Chu Shiyao said so, Wu Qing didn't take heed, his gaze fixed on Chu Ge, waiting for his response.
"I'm sorry, what Yaoyao means is what I mean. I have nothing to say to you, and if possible, I'd like you to stay away from me."
Wu Qing squinted his eyes, his expression turning a bit sullen, "Mr. Chu... you're putting me in a difficult position."
Chu Ge sneered, completely ignoring Wu Qing's cold tone. He turned to face the front desk, just as Wu Qing's voice sounded again behind him.
"Miss, I'm sorry, since Mr. Chu is so uncooperative, I have to say some things here. Haven't your relationship reached that level yet? Shouldn't you be a little more mindful?"
Hearing Wu Qing's words, Chu Shiyao immediately lost her temper. She raised her hand and pointed at Wu Qing's nose, scolding him: "I've told you to stay away when we're together, and you following us around like a leech is already annoying enough. What do you want now?"
Wu Qing's lips twitched slightly, showing a somewhat forced smile, as if saying "Not finished yet."
"Ladies and gentlemen, if you have any disputes, please solve them before coming over. You are affecting our regular work and also affecting other guests."
The front desk looked strangely at the two men and one woman in front of her, speaking rather politely to the Chu Ge across from her.
Chu Ge smiled faintly, "I'm sorry, we don't have any disputes. Please give me a room."
"Are you sure?"
"Are you sure?"
The two voices spoke simultaneously, one from the front desk attendant and the other from Wu Qing, whose gaze had turned completely cold.
Chu Ge nodded, "Yes, I'm sure."
The receptionist glanced once more at Wu Qing behind Chu Ge, then asked, "Cash or card?"
"Card! The best, the most expensive!" Chu Shiyao pulled out a card from her bag and handed it directly to the receptionist. After all, it was Chu Chengrui's money, might as well spend it.
The receptionist was about to take the card, and there was a look of helplessness on her face. It looked like these two guys were about to fight.
Finally, Chu Shiyao's bodyguard Wu Qing made a move. He again reached for Chu Ge's shoulder, but this time much faster than before.
As Wu Qing's hand reached down, Chu Ge, who was facing away from him, also raised his right hand, intercepting his wrist first.
Wu Qing's brows furrowed immediately. His move was definitely sudden. Did Chu Ge grow eyes on his back? How did he catch it right away?
What made Wu Qing feel even more unbelievable was that the hand gripping his wrist was like a steel clamp. Even though he didn't feel any exertion from the other side, he couldn't break free no matter how hard he tried.
Wu Qing was truly unwilling to believe this! Back in the army, in their entire company, if he claimed to be third in strength and agility, no one dared to claim second!
As for number one, that was undoubtedly his class monitor at the time, the man he seemed destined to look up to forever.
Press down! Can't press it down!
Lift up! Can't lift it up!
Flick the wrist! Can't get a gap!
What the heck! How is this possible?
Wu Qing's face gradually turned red; he was using all his strength, yet the opponent just casually lifted his hand, not using any real counterforce.
Finally, just when he felt out of breath, he took a deep breath and tried to lift his hand, Chu Ge made a slight movement.
Chu Ge's movement was to release his hand without any warning.
Wu Qing stumbled back several steps. He tried hard to regain his balance, but unfortunately he failed, falling backward onto a human-sized vase, which he knocked over with a "bang," and it shattered with a "crash."
A huge spider inside the vase was frightened, its eight legs scurrying, and somehow it ended up on Wu Qing's head. Wu Qing instinctively slapped at it, and the unfortunate spider splattered its juices as it got squished, right on the center of Wu Qing's forehead.
The sound of the vase shattering, followed by a loud "slap," immediately caught everyone's attention. Everyone was stunned, having no idea what had just happened.
In their view, they saw Wu Qing stretch out his hand, Chu Ge lift his hand slightly, and within seconds, Wu Qing was flying backward. They couldn't empathize, so they had no idea what kind of emotional roller coaster Wu Qing experienced in those mere seconds.
"Is he doing some kind of special effect? How could he fall so far, and in such an exaggerated way?"
"He looked pretty badass earlier, but now...not so much badass, more like just an ass..."
"Don't talk nonsense; falling like that is also a kind of badassery."
"Hmm, true that."
Whispers started circulating, accompanied by peals of joyful laughter.
"Hahahaha... Chu Ge, look at him, doesn't he look like a Spider-Man version of Erlang God? Or an Erlang God version of Spider-Man?"
Chu Shiyao laughed so hard she was doubling over, tapping the table at the front desk with her small hand. Her comment quickly spread through the hall, stirring up a round of uproarious laughter and some very loud whistles.
She had been almost driven crazy by Wu Qing these days. Seeing him provoke Chu Ge and get so embarrassed with just one move from Chu Ge, how could she not be thrilled?
Listening to the laughter around, Chu Shiyao laughed even harder. She took out two bundles of bright red 100-yuan bills from her bag, which she initially didn't want to use, placed them on the front desk, and cheerily told the front desk lady, who was trying hard not to laugh, "Miss, that idiot wasted everyone's time; consider this compensation, cover a few drinks for the next customers."
Everyone nearby heard Chu Shiyao's loud voice, and the whistling grew even louder.
"Thank you!"
"This girl is awesome! Really great!"
The front desk lady's smile froze momentarily at the sight of the twenty thousand yuan, then she looked up at Chu Shiyao, "Miss, are you sure?"
Chu Shiyao nodded without hesitation, "Of course I'm sure!"
She had to admit, being able to squander money, especially when it wasn't her own, felt fantastic. Then she mischievously added, "By the way, I won't cover the broken vase; you can ask that idiot to pay for it later."
Chu Ge shook his head with a smile, took the service card that the front desk lady absentmindedly forgot to hand over, gave Chu Shiyao a look indicating it was about time to leave, and Chu Shiyao, as playful as ever, stuck out her tongue and followed Chu Ge.
"Hold it!"
Amidst laughter, whistles, and thank-yous, a voice full of rage suddenly erupted, sounding completely out of place, and a now standing Wu Qing called out.
Chu Ge slightly furrowed his brows. Chu Shiyao calling this guy a clingy pest couldn't have been more accurate. Even after losing face so hugely, he still had the audacity to keep pestering them?
Chu Ge paused his steps, turned to look at Wu Qing, whose face was ashen and had a squished spider imprinted on his forehead, "Is it because you can't afford to pay for the vase, so you're looking to borrow money from us, Spider Erlang God?"
The surrounding laughter grew even louder, and Wu Qing's expression grew even darker. He clenched his fists tightly, temples pulsating, eyes burning with anger, his jaw tightening stubbornly.
Chu Ge scratched his head, "So, are you going to speak up if you want us to lend you money, Spider Erlang God?"
"Chu Ge, do you believe that if you keep talking like this, it won't end well for you?"
Wu Qing swung his hand, flipping the dead spider off his forehead, his eyes filled with fierce cold light.
