Chapter 675: Jiang Tao’s Hug

Li Yuanhang and Jiang Tao arrived at the hotel almost at the same time. Due to the criminals, the hotel quickly evacuated the guests for their safety. The staff also received the news and became very nervous.

However, they were all trained personnel and could not show any panic. They also had to appease the guests.

When they saw Li Yuanhang walk into the hotel, everyone seemed to have found their support.

“Assistant Li, you’re finally here!”

The front desk receptionist quickly ran to Li Yuanhang.

“What’s the situation now?” The guests might not know the situation, but the front desk people certainly knew something.

The front desk lady said, “A person died in the room!”

“What?”

Li Yuanhang and Jiang Tao were shocked. They did not ask anything and quickly ran away. They had confirmed the situation that Xiao Lingyu was fine. But they had no idea there was also a dead person in the room.

But why? It definitely could not be Xiao Lingyu.

They had just confirmed that Xiao Lingyu was safe.

“Young master Jiang, then… could it be Xiao Lingyu?” When Li Yuanhang asked this question, his heart trembled.

Jiang Tao said calmly, “It can’t be. We just talked to her on the phone a few minutes ago.”

“Yes, you’re right!” Li Yuanhang nodded.

The two of them quickly ran to the 18th floor.

That floor was originally very quiet, but now it had become somewhat lively. A person had died in a presidential suite on the 18th floor. This was news that couldn’t be hidden from the other guests. After all, there were gunshots. Therefore, when some of the guests heard about this, they came to the 18th floor to see it. They were not afraid of death.

Everyone gathered at the door of the 9999 presidential suite, and many people began to discuss.

“I heard that criminals broke into the room, and they had guns.”

“Is the dead man one of the criminals?”

“If he is, why is he dead?”

“Maybe there was an internal conflict?”

“That’s very possible. I heard that the woman who lived in this room was very beautiful. It’s possible that there was an internal conflict because of her.”

Jiang Tao was not in the mood to listen to these discussions. As soon as he arrived, he said with a cold and stern voice, “Please move aside!”

Jiang Tao’s cold voice immediately attracted the attention of these people.

Jiang Tao’s status in the capital was not ordinary, and the customers staying at the Crystal Palace Hotel also had a certain status. After all, the Crystal Palace Hotel was the only seven-star hotel on the entire continent, and the customers it received were usually either rich or noble.

When someone saw Jiang Tao appear, he cried out in surprise, “Young Master Jiang?!”

“It’s really young master Jiang? What is Young Master Jiang doing here?”

“He’s from the Public Security Department. It’s normal for him to come here to investigate the case, right?”

“But why would he look so anxious?”

There were rumors in the capital that Jiang Tao, the young master of the Jiang family, had no expression other than coldness. It was said that apart from a few of his good friends, very few people saw his other expressions. But these people were lucky enough to see Jiang Tao so worried.

After everyone had moved out of the way, Jiang Tao quickly walked into the room.

When he saw a corpse lying straight in the bathroom, Jiang Tao’s pupils constricted. Then, he noticed Xiao Lingyu, who was sitting on the sofa with a pale face.

He ran in with big strides and stood in front of Xiao Lingyu. Ignoring everyone’s surprised gazes, he directly hugged Xiao Lingyu in his arms. “It’s great that you’re okay!”

The crowd at the door opened their mouths in shock.

They had never expected Jiang Tao to be so nervous, worried, and close to a woman.

Li Yuanhang had just arrived. He was shocked to see the corpse in front of the bathroom, and he saw the scene of Jiang Tao hugging Xiao Lingyu. He was slightly surprised.

He quickly noticed the expressions of the guests outside the door, and the corner of his mouth twitched.

For the sake of Xiao Lingyu and Jiang Tao’s reputation, Li Yuanhang had to explain, “Miss Xiao and young master Jiang are good friends. Since Miss Xiao had just survived death, it’s understandable for them to react like this.”

Xiao Lingyu’s identity as the young mistress of the Gong family would be exposed sooner or later, and it was already known that Jiang Tao was engaged to Leng Piaoxue, the young miss of the Leng family.

Young Master Jiang, who had never been close to women but had a fiancée, hugged another woman in the hotel. This would probably arouse suspicion.

The most obvious conclusion was Xiao Lingyu was the mistress who stole someone’s fiancée. Once Xiao Lingyu’s name was slandered, it would affect her future. Plus, people would use that to sow discord between Gong Tianhao and Jiang Tao.

To avoid all that, Li Yuanhang had to do damage control now. He had to state clearly that Xiao Lingyu and Jiang Tao were just ordinary good friends. It was normal to give a hug to a good friend.

Li Yuanhang walked directly to them and coughed loudly.

Jiang Tao quickly reacted and quickly pushed Xiao Lingyu away, causing Xiao Lingyu to fall backward. If she hadn’t been sitting on the sofa, Xiao Lingyu would have fallen down by now.

Xiao Lingyu glanced outside the door and said snappily, “You didn’t have to push me away. Are you that afraid of me?” Xiao Lingyu spoke casually like how she would with a friend. The crowd heard that and wondered if they had been overthinking these two’s relationship.

Jiang Tao also realized that he had lost his composure. In order not to damage Xiao Lingyu’s reputation and not affect her, he said very seriously, “You didn’t even inform me when you came to the capital so that I could welcome you. Now, see what happened.”

He turned his head to look at the crime scene and frowned.

He didn’t say anything else. Based on the scene, he could imagine how intense the fight was.

However, what puzzled him was that there were several people with guns. Then, how did Xiao Lingyu escape from them safely? In fact, there was even a dead criminal there.

Jiang Tao gave Li Yuanhang a look.

Li Yuanhang immediately asked the security guard, “Did you call the police?”

“I have!”
