Chapter 202: Chapter 202: Disaster! The President’s Girlfriend is Sick

When the customer service representative received Lu Yunque’s call, she broke out in a cold sweat.

She’d been given strict instructions by her manager and knew that the guests in the presidential suite were none other than the corporation’s president and his girlfriend.

’For the president’s girlfriend to have a problem during my shift... this is an absolute catastrophe!’

After hanging up, she hurriedly dialed the hotel’s medical office, then called Manager Liu.

She quickly informed the other clerk at the front desk, then went to the back office herself to get all the spare keys for the presidential suite. With the keys in hand, she sprinted into the elevator.

’They’re practically royalty! A single second’s delay and I could lose my job!’

Upon receiving the call from the front desk, the on-duty doctor and Manager Liu both cursed inwardly. They were so screwed.

If anything happened to the president’s girlfriend in their hotel, they’d all be facing dire consequences.

Dropping whatever they were doing, each of them scrambled toward the presidential suite.

Inside the presidential suite, Lu Yunque didn’t just stand around waiting after calling customer service. Instead, he went to Yun Zijin’s door and prepared to kick it down.

But the doors in the Jinsheng Hotel were of the highest quality. Lu Yunque’s kick only produced a tremendous BANG; his foot went numb, but the door remained unshaken.

Lu Yunque suddenly had a thought. ’Maybe the hotel’s high-quality construction isn’t always a good thing.’

In an emergency, you couldn’t even break down a door.

"Are you kicking the door?"

Hearing the loud noise through the phone, Yun Zijin asked weakly.

"It’s taking the hotel staff too long to get here. I thought I’d give it a try."

"Don’t... I’m feeling a little better. I’ll come open the door for you now."

Although Yun Zijin’s voice was still faint, it was at least a little louder than before.

"Okay, I’ll stop kicking. Take it slow and hold onto something."

Yun Zijin agreed softly.

The pain in her stomach had drained the color from her lips, and walking was a struggle, but she could still manage it.

The short walk now felt impossibly long to Yun Zijin, and she had to keep stopping. Before she could make it, however, it was the front desk clerk, spare keys in hand, who arrived at Lu Yunque’s side.

Since Lu Yunque had told her on the phone to come straight in with the spare keys, she swiped the master key card and then sprinted inside as if she were running a hundred-meter dash.

"Mr. Lu! The spare... spare keys... I... I brought them!"

Except for the elevator ride, the clerk had been running the entire way, so she was quite out of breath.

"Open this door."

Seeing the clerk holding several keys, Lu Yunque told her to open it herself.

Without a moment’s hesitation, the clerk found the key to Yun Zijin’s room and opened the door.

Through the open door, Lu Yunque saw Yun Zijin clutching her stomach, her face pale, sitting weakly on the carpet.

She was wearing a white nightdress, which made her look all the more heartbreakingly fragile. Lu Yunque’s mind went blank with a ROAR; he was completely unable to think.

But his body reacted faster than his mind. Before a single thought could form, he instinctively crossed the room, lifted Yun Zijin into his arms, and placed her back on the bed.

"My clothes... I sat on the floor... they’re dirty."

Yun Zijin was a bit of a germaphobe when it came to her bed.

"Just bear with it. The doctor is almost here. Once you’re feeling better, I’ll have someone change the sheets for you."

Lu Yunque didn’t let Yun Zijin get up.

In truth, the presidential suite was cleaned by a dedicated staff member daily and fully sanitized every week.

It was safe to say the carpets in the Jinsheng Hotel’s presidential suite were cleaner than the beds in most people’s homes.

After all, hotel sheets were changed daily, while people at home probably change theirs once a month.

Yun Zijin was reluctant, but Lu Yunque was being especially firm. Lacking any strength due to the stomach pain, she could only give in.

"I told you to call the on-duty doctor. Why isn’t anyone here yet?"

After settling Yun Zijin, Lu Yunque turned to question the front desk clerk.

Startled at being addressed so suddenly, the clerk’s mind went blank for a moment before she managed to respond, "I already called the medical office. They should be here any second."

’The on-duty doctor would have to bring his medical bag, and gathering his things takes time. It’s not like me; I just rushed straight up here,’ she thought.

"Here he is, he’s here! The doctor is here!"

Having been woken up at 2 AM, both the doctor and Manager Liu looked exhausted, their eyelids drooping.

Yun Zijin was terribly embarrassed to see how many people she had troubled.

"Take a look at her!"

Lu Yunque made some room for the doctor, but his eyes remained glued to Yun Zijin, terrified something else might go wrong.

Because Lu Yunque had given prior instructions, Manager Liu had made special arrangements. The doctor on duty tonight was an older physician, highly experienced and trained in both traditional Chinese and Western medicine.

The doctor first took Yun Zijin’s pulse and quickly diagnosed the cause of her ailment.

"It’s a stomachache caused by something she ate. One pill should take care of it."

With that, the doctor opened his medical bag and poured a dark, round pill from a small vial.

"Ugh!"

’The smell is really... pungent.’

Yun Zijin almost threw up.

"This medicine smells awful. Doctor... is there another way?"

Yun Zijin’s brow furrowed. ’I don’t want to take it...’

"Good medicine tastes bitter. The only other option is an IV drip, and by the time that’s done, it’ll be morning."

Yun Zijin: ...

’If I’m up all night, I won’t be able to go out and have fun tomorrow, will I?’

"Take this pill, and I guarantee you’ll be up and about tomorrow, good as new."

The doctor once again brought the pill closer to Yun Zijin.

Lu Yunque didn’t press her. The choice was hers to make.

"I’ll take the pill!"

For the sake of her plans for the next day, Yun Zijin decided to bite the bullet.

Just then, the front desk clerk returned with a glass of water, her timing impeccable.

Yun Zijin shot her a reproachful glance. ’If you’d been a little later,’ she thought, ’I could have stalled for longer.’

"I’ll go find you some candy."

Lu Yunque was in his pajamas and didn’t have any of the little snacks Yun Zijin usually stashed in his pockets, so he had to go search for something.

"Hurry, then. I’ll wait for you to come back before I take it."

"Then we..."

The doctor felt rather out of place.

"Thank you for your trouble. You can all leave now; there’s no need to stay."

Yun Zijin was already deeply embarrassed about calling everyone over in the middle of the night. Making them wait around after the examination was over felt truly inconsiderate.

The doctor, the clerk, and Manager Liu left Yun Zijin’s room. They said their goodbyes to Lu Yunque and closed the main door on their way out.

A moment later, Lu Yunque re-entered Yun Zijin’s room. "I couldn’t find any candy, but I found some chocolate on the coffee table in the living room. That should work, right?"

Lu Yunque opened his palm, showing the chocolate to Yun Zijin.

Yun Zijin recognized it at a glance. It was a rather expensive foreign brand.

’Finding chocolate instead of candy on such short notice isn’t bad at all,’ Yun Zijin thought, nodding.

"It’s okay, chocolate is fine."
