Yan Luoxi was well aware of the variety of breakfasts served in five-star hotels. They were abundant and diverse, allowing her to have a hearty meal every day after which she could skip lunch. If she managed to sneak some food back, dinner would also be taken care of.

The hotel receptionist, upon hearing that Yan Luoxi was willing to stay, was overjoyed and quickly arranged the room for her. The taxi drivers outside the hotel, seeing through the bright window that Yan Luoxi was walking with her luggage towards the elevator, also seemed relieved.

Upon entering the suite room, Yan Luoxi was so satisfied she wanted to jump up and down in joy. Her room was located on a small corner of the 18th floor, one of only two opposite suites. From her balcony, she could overlook half the city's skyline and enjoy views of the distant sea.

Livingston Hotel truly lived up to its international reputation; even their single standard rooms rivaled the presidential suite where An Li had once stayed with her. Yan Luoxi felt so comfortable that she rolled around on the bed first before taking a bath and changing clothes.

The train journey had left her utterly exhausted, and after bathing, she was ready to fall asleep on the bed but hunger pangs kept interrupting her thoughts of rest. Not wanting to go out for food, she called the dining service to order a meal instead.

Yan Luoxi resumed her meticulous budgeting lifestyle by inquiring about the prices of various set meals, which made her heart race upon hearing them.

In the end, she ordered one of the cheapest sets but still felt it was too expensive—sixty-eight dollars. That could buy so many bowls of spicy hot pot!

The meal arrived swiftly. Seeing the steaming hot and slightly spicy silver pot mutton vermicelli, the fragrant braised pork knuckle, the vividly colored spicy clams stir-fry, as well as a dish of lightly blanched mountain vegetables, Yan Luoxi was astonished to her core, "Oh my! Is this really the sixty-eight-dollar set I ordered Please don’t give me the wrong one and deliver the hundred-and-sixty-eight-dollar one instead! You should know, once I eat it, there’s no way I’ll spit it out or pay extra!"

The waiter serving the food smiled politely, "Miss, feel free to enjoy your meal. This is the 68-yuan set you ordered!"

"Oh my God, your hotel is just too kind! Too adorable!" Yan Luoxi was so excited that she wanted to hug the waiter, but seeing him back away, she turned her attention back to the set.

The waiter placed the dishes in front of Yan Luoxi and handed her a bag containing various medicines. "Miss, you got caught in the rain on your way here to our hotel. To prevent you from getting sick or having a fever, we've prepared some medicine for you—Isatis root, Double Yellow Oral Liquid, Anti-Virus Oral Liquid... These are all heat-clearing and surface-relieving medications with no side effects on the body. You can take them after your meal as a precaution."

"Wow, your hotel is just too humane." Holding onto the bag of medicine, Yan Luoxi was at a loss for words due to her excitement.

The chef's skills were truly exceptional; even more impressive than those of a five-star chef. The food was both delicious and satisfying.

Yan Luoxi enjoyed an exceptionally delightful dinner and thought, if she had money, she wouldn't buy a house but would rent long-term in this place that served such good food and provided comfortable sleep, making her feel at home.

Lying down on the bed, Yan Luoxi was still thinking how right it was for her to choose to live in Qingdao. The heavens seemed to be aiding her; as soon as she got off the train, she met a kind-hearted driver who brought her to this expensive and famous Four Seasons Hotel, which happened to have a discount event going on... It really felt like everything had been going smoothly for her. This city is perfect for her!

Since parting with Li An, Yan Luoxi finally found some joy in her life.

These days, she was almost submerged in endless sorrow, pouring out her most profound emotions and youth to two love affairs that didn't come to fruition. Her poor little heart had truly been wounded deeply.

Yan Luoxi finally fell asleep with some pleasant thoughts.

The next morning, when Yan Luoxi woke up, she felt dizzy and congested, realizing that it seemed like she was getting a cold.

In recent times, her physical and mental health had suffered double blows, causing her immunity to plummet drastically.

Among the medicine in the bag delivered by the hotel, Yan Luoxi first took a bottle of Shuanghuanglian. Then she felt it was still not quite right and gulped down a packet of Banlangen too.

Now she had only herself to rely on, so under no circumstances could she fall ill; she must stay strong and keep living.

Yan Luoxi, being weak in health, broke out into a sweat after taking the medicine. She knew it was because her body was too frail to withstand the effects of the medicine. In a hurry, she left her room and went down to the restaurant for breakfast.

It was still raining outside today. Yan Luoxi looked down and saw some wet footprints on the carpet, which seemed to have come from outside all the way to the neighboring unit, presumably occupied by a man!

Yan Luoxi went downstairs for breakfast. Here there were many varieties of dishes, including both Chinese and Western options, congee with side dishes, hamburgers and milk, all available in abundance. Moreover, cleanliness was top-notch everywhere. Yan Luoxi intended to bring lunch out but managed to eat a lot of food at the same time; before leaving, she unethically pocketed two eggs, several pieces of cheese, and two bottles of yogurt as dinner.

When Yan Luoxi returned after breakfast, it was still raining outside. It seemed that she could not leave for now.

Yan Luoxi thought for a moment, turned on her computer to look for rental apartments online and began searching for job opportunities. While fiddling with her computer, she felt like something was missing. After pondering for quite some time, she realized that it was the usual fruit-eating time of day.

During this period, whether she was with Li An or Shao Junhe, she had developed many pampered habits, such as having fresh fruits or fruit salads on display half an hour after breakfast every day. She could watch TV while eating them or look out the window absent-mindedly while munching.

Today, everything around her suddenly disappeared and it felt quite strange.

Lifting her head to look at the two boxes of yogurt brought back from the dining room, she swallowed but did not reach for them. That was supposed to be her dinner!

Juicing her ears in frustration while feeling restless, Yan Luoxi heard the doorbell ring and rushed over to open the door. The delivery person politely nodded at her: "Miss, here are your drinks and fruits."

"Ah... Thank you!" With joy, Yan Luoxi took two bottles of juice and a bottle of milk from the delivery person's hands, along with a small basket of fruit.

The fruits were fresh and beautiful. The red Fuji apples were big and crispy, while the strawberries in a small bamboo basket looked as if they had just been picked from the field; several juicy peaches also caught her eye. Every single one was her favorite.

"Wow, living here is such a bargain!" Yan Luoxi bounced around with the pricey fruits, feeling like she got an excellent deal.

Ecstatically, she took them inside to wash and then finally sat down by her computer, happily eating fruit while continuing her search for accommodation and employment. hated dealing with these middle-aged women who thought themselves clever.He didn't want to beat around the bush with Xu Liping, so he decided to be straightforward.Xu Liping understood Lǐ n's intenti...
