Is it hard to chase the school beauty?It doesn't matter, she still has roommates

The two looked at each other and saw an unbelievable coincidence in each other's eyes.

Same flight, same cabin class, same hotel, and even next-door rooms? This is just too much of a coincidence!
Qin Luo's heart stirred slightly, but he didn't show it on his face.

"What a coincidence. Miss Yao, are you here for work?"

"Yes, there's a filming assignment."

Yao Man nodded.

Where is Mr. Qin?

"It's a private matter."

Qin Luo once again passed by with his beard tucked in his hand.

The two took the elevator to the 18th floor together and went back to their respective rooms.

Qin Luo had just put down his backpack and washed up briefly when the phone in his room rang.

He's an inside player.

"Hey?"

"Mr. Qin, it's me, Yao Man."

Yao Man's cheerful voice came from the other end of the phone.

"You must be starving after all that traveling, right? I know a night market street nearby with really authentic food. Want to grab some late-night snacks together? It's on me, as a thank you for helping me treat my leg!"

Qin Luo was indeed hungry and wanted to try authentic Burmese cuisine, so he readily agreed.

"it is good."

Ten minutes later, the two met in the hotel lobby.

Yao Man changed into a more casual dress, which made her look fresh and lovely.

The two walked to the nearby night market.

Naypyidaw at night is quite different from the tranquility of the day.

The night market was brightly lit and bustling with people, the air filled with the mixed aromas of spices, fried foods and tropical fruits.

The narrow streets were crowded with all sorts of vendors, their shouts rising and falling in Burmese, a language Qin Luo couldn't understand at all.

Looking at the dazzling array of oddly shaped snacks and goods, Qin Luo was at a loss as to where to start.

Yao Man, however, seemed very interested. She skillfully used a mix of English and simple gestures to buy two portions of golden-yellow, unidentified food from a stall selling fried snacks, and then picked out a few wooden elephant carvings from a stall selling small handicrafts.

"Try this. It's a bit like our fried spring rolls, but the filling is different."

Yao Man handed a portion to Qin Luo, took a bite herself, and showed a satisfied expression.

Qin Luo was somewhat surprised.

"I never thought a world-famous supermodel would be so down-to-earth, eating at a roadside stall?"

Upon hearing this, Yao Man's eyes dimmed slightly, but she then smiled with relief.

“I’ve been eating this since I was a child, and I can’t change it. When I was a child, my family was poor. My parents did odd jobs in Chinatown and earned a meager income, but they had seven children to support. We were lucky to have a hot meal, so we didn’t care about street stalls. Later, my father’s business gradually improved, but the childhood habit… is ingrained in my bones.”

Her tone was calm, yet it carried a subtle hint of bitterness.

As they walked and talked, Qin Luo's impression of Yao Man changed considerably.

This seemingly glamorous international supermodel also has a difficult past that is unknown to most people.

However, just as Yao Man was recounting her past with a relaxed expression, she suddenly stopped in her tracks! The smile on her face vanished instantly, replaced by extreme fear and tension!
Almost instinctively, she grabbed Qin Luo's arm and hid behind him, her body trembling slightly!
"what happened?"

Qin Luo immediately became alert and followed Yao Man's terrified gaze.

Not far ahead, two young men dressed in flashy plaid short-sleeved shirts, beach shorts, and flip-flops were strolling leisurely towards them.

The two men had dark skin, shifty eyes, and a sleazy air about them; they were clearly not good people.

They seemed to have spotted Yao Man as well, their gazes sweeping over her with unbridled intent, a malicious smile playing on their lips.

As the two young men drew closer, Yao Man gripped Qin Luo's hand tighter and tighter, her nails almost digging into his flesh.

She seemed to feel that hiding behind Qin Luo wasn't safe enough, so she suddenly let go and, like a startled deer, quickly hid behind a fruit stall by the roadside, holding her breath nervously under the stall's cover.

Qin Luo frowned, standing still, his gaze coldly fixed on the two young men who were walking towards him.

As the two passed by Qin Luo, they seemed not to notice him, only glancing at him casually, their eyes searching for something, muttering a few words in Burmese, before continuing on their way.

Only after the two had walked far away and disappeared into the crowd did Yao Man emerge from behind the stall, her face pale, patting her chest with lingering fear.

"Who...who are those two people? Do you know them?"

Qin Luo asked in a deep voice.

Yao Man shook her head, her voice trembling.

"No... I don't know them. But ever since I got off the plane and collected my luggage, I've felt like someone is watching me... Later in the hotel lobby, I think I saw people dressed similarly loitering around... Just now at the entrance to the night market, I saw them again! They've been following us!"

Her eyes were filled with fear.

“Mr. Qin, as you know, this country… is very dangerous. Every year, many people mysteriously disappear, especially… especially solo female tourists. The reports online… are terrifying! Even though this is the capital, it's not necessarily safe!”

Qin Luo nodded solemnly.

Negative reports about the chaos in some Southeast Asian countries are rampant online, and the security situation is indeed worrying.

Yao Man's vigilance was not without reason.

"Don't be too nervous, it might just be a coincidence."

Qin Luo tried to comfort her.

"Let's leave here first..."

However, before he finished speaking, Yao Man's nerves, which had just relaxed a little, tensed up again instantly. Her face drained of color, and her eyes were filled with even deeper despair!

The two young men in plaid shirts turned back, their eyes fixed on Yao Man like hyenas locking onto their prey.

One of the young men, with dark skin and prominent buck teeth, shouted in extremely broken Chinese with a strange accent.

Hey! Chinese girl! Stop hiding! I saw you!

Upon hearing the shout, Yao Man felt as if she had been doused with ice water. She shuddered violently, her face turned deathly pale, and she instinctively shrank back behind Qin Luo, almost pressing herself against his back.

Two young men quickly approached, their lewd eyes scanning Yao Man's panicked face and her impressive figure.

The buck-toothed youth pulled a crumpled piece of printed paper from his beach shorts pocket, unfolded it, and compared it to Yao Man's image.

The paper prominently displayed a photo of Yao Man walking the runway, her legs appearing exceptionally long and dazzling under the lights.

"That's right! It's her!"

After confirming the information, the buck-toothed youth revealed an even more lewd smile and commanded Yao Man in his broken Chinese.

"Beautiful lady, come with us! Someone wants to see you!"

"I don't know you! Get away! Or I'll call the police!"

Yao Man suppressed her fear, her voice trembling, and took out her phone as if to make a call.

"Call the police?"

Another young man with triangular eyes sneered, his eyes fierce.

"You won't listen to reason, so you'll have to suffer the consequences!" He suddenly reached out, trying to snatch Yao Man's phone!

However, before his hand could even touch Yao Man's phone, or even see the movement clearly, he felt an irresistible force slam into his side!

"Oh!"

A muffled sound!
The triangular-eyed youth was as if he had been hit by a speeding truck. He let out a miserable scream and his body flew through the air.

With a loud crash, it overturned a fruit stall by the roadside! Various tropical fruits rolled all over the ground.

He curled up in the pile of rotten fruit, clutching his aching abdomen, and vomited violently, even bringing up bile, instantly losing his fighting ability.

The buck-toothed youth was stunned by this sudden turn of events!
He stared in horror at Qin Luo, who had moved like a ghost and was now coldly staring at him, then looked at his companion groaning in pain on the ground, and was terrified!
He dared not linger any longer and rushed over to help up the man with the triangular eyes. The two of them, like stray dogs, staggered into the crowd.

After running more than ten meters, the buck-toothed youth dared to turn around and roared in a mix of Burmese and Chinese, his voice trembling with fear.

"You...you wait! Don't you dare run away!"

After saying that, the two disappeared into the dimly lit street corner without looking back.

Qin Luo shook his foot, as if he had only kicked away a troublesome stone.

He turned around, looked at the still-shaken Yao Man, and spoke calmly.

"Alright, it's settled. They're just two punks, nothing to be afraid of."

Yao Man looked at Qin Luo with a complex expression, a mixture of gratitude and lingering fear.

She patted her violently heaving chest, her voice trembling with relief.

"Thank you... thank you, Mr. Qin! You saved me again... But... let's hurry back to the hotel! They... they must have gone back to get help! It's too dangerous here!"

Although Qin Luo didn't take the threats from the two thugs seriously, considering that he was in a foreign country and unfamiliar with the place, and that he still had important business to attend to by tracking Wei Junwu tomorrow, he didn't want to cause any unnecessary trouble.

He nodded.

"Okay, let's go."

The two lost interest in exploring the market and hurriedly left the bustling yet dangerous night market, returning to their hotel.

The atmosphere inside the elevator was somewhat silent.

Yao Man leaned against the cold metal wall of the elevator car, took a few deep breaths, and slowly calmed down.

She offered her explanation.

“Mr. Qin, please don’t misunderstand. I came to Naypyidaw this time to transfer to Singapore to participate in the World Model Contest. There are no direct flights from Fujian to Singapore, and Naypyidaw is the closest transit point. I thought the capital would be safer, but I didn’t expect…” She gave a bitter smile, her eyes filled with lingering fear.

"I never expected to be targeted as soon as I got off the plane. If it weren't for you... the consequences would have been unimaginable."

Her eyes were filled with sincere gratitude as she looked at Qin Luo.

Seeing her still-shaken expression, Qin Luo half-jokingly said...

"With Miss Yao's beauty, if those people catch you, their first choice will probably be to kidnap you and take you back to be their wife. Cutting off your kidneys will probably be a secondary consideration."

Yao Man chuckled at his slightly dark humor, which eased the tense atmosphere a little, but the thought of that possibility still sent a chill down her spine.

"Ding!"

The elevator reaches the 18th floor.

Good night, Mr. Qin.

Yao Man stood at the door of her room, number 1816, and said goodbye to Qin Luo.

"Good night."

Qin Luo nodded and walked towards 1818 next door.

Back in his room, Qin Luo had just put down his backpack and was about to study the specific information about Wei Junwu's whereabouts that Xu Tianbao had sent when there was a rapid knocking on the door.

Qin Luo frowned slightly, walked to the door, and looked through the peephole. Standing outside was none other than Yao Man!
She dragged her suitcase, her face still somewhat pale, her eyes filled with unease.

Qin Luo opened the door.

“Mr. Qin…” Yao Man’s voice carried a barely perceptible sob and pleading tone.

"I...I went back to my room, and the more I thought about it, the more scared I became...I kept feeling like there were shadows outside the window, and the door lock didn't seem very secure...I...I'm afraid to be alone..." She bit her lower lip and mustered up her courage to look at Qin Luo.

"Could you...could I stay in your room for the night? I'm fine with sleeping on the sofa or on the floor! Really...I'm so scared..."

Looking at Yao Man's pitiful and tearful appearance, Qin Luo thought about how this was a five-star hotel with a perfect security system, heavy security doors, and smooth glass curtain walls outside the windows. It was more than ten stories high, so it was impossible for anyone to climb up.

It was most likely a delusion caused by her excessive fright.

But seeing the genuine fear and pleading in her eyes, Qin Luo ultimately softened. After all, she was a vulnerable woman who had just experienced a traumatic ordeal in a foreign land.

"come in."

Qin Luo stepped aside.

"The sofa is big enough, you can sleep there."

"Thank you! Thank you, Mr. Qin!"

Yao Man felt like she had been granted a pardon, thanked him repeatedly, and hurriedly dragged her suitcase into the room as if a ghost was chasing her.

Only after closing the door did Yao Man seem to truly breathe a sigh of relief.

She put down her suitcase and said to Qin Luo somewhat embarrassedly.

"I...I haven't showered yet, and I'm all sweaty...Could I use the bathroom?"

"Please."

Qin Luo pointed in the direction of the bathroom.

Yao Man opened her suitcase.

Qin Luo glanced inside; there weren't many things. Besides a few neatly folded, sexy pieces of underwear and a set of skincare and cosmetic products, there were only two simple sets of clothes to change into.

Yao Man took her change of clothes and toiletries and went into the bathroom.

Soon, the sound of dripping water could be heard from inside.

Qin Luo sat on the sofa in the outer room, listening to the continuous sound of running water in the bathroom, but his thoughts were somewhat wandering.

The room was filled with the fresh scent of shower gel, mixed with Yao Man's unique, faint body fragrance, creating a somewhat subtle atmosphere.

He rubbed his temples, pondering tomorrow's plans and the trouble that now there was an extra woman in the room.

A man and a woman alone in a room, and the other woman is an international supermodel who is dressed scantily and taking a shower... This situation is a bit tricky.

About half an hour later, the sound of water stopped.

The bathroom door opened, and steamy vapor filled the air.

Qin Luo subconsciously looked up, and his breath hitched slightly.

Yao Man emerged, wearing only a short white bath towel provided by the hotel! The towel barely covered her full breasts and buttocks, revealing a large expanse of smooth, jade-like shoulders and back, delicate collarbones, and a pair of straight, slender, flawless legs, still glistening with water droplets! Her wet black hair cascaded over her shoulders, water droplets sliding down her delicate skin, adding to her alluring, water-like beauty.

She seemed oblivious to Qin Luo's gaze, or perhaps she didn't care.

With her back to Qin Luo, she walked to her open suitcase, bent down, and took out the skincare and cosmetic products inside.

This posture...dragged Qin Luo's gaze involuntarily to her round, full buttocks, tightly wrapped in a bath towel! At the edge of the towel, a glimpse of the delicate skin at the base of her thighs could even be seen...the breathtaking curves and elastic visual effect were like the most intense visual impact, crashing heavily onto Qin Luo's retina!
