928: Chapter 927: Xiao Li’s Boyfriend 928: Chapter 927: Xiao Li’s Boyfriend Hotel lobby.

“Hey, miss, what are you zoning out for?

I told you to get me a single room!” A guest angrily shouted at Xiao Li, who was distracted.

“Sorry, sorry, I’ll take care of that right away.

Could I please have your ID?” Xiao Li said nervously.

It seemed like this shift was completely jinxed.

Xiao Li’s mind was completely consumed by the events of the day.

For an ordinary working girl, what happened today felt like something straight out of a TV drama.

She was so lost in thought, she didn’t even notice when guests came in to get a room.

“Hey, Li Li, what’s gotten into you?

Don’t tell me you’re daydreaming about me?” The guest across the counter didn’t hand over his ID but smirked mischievously.

Xiao Li suddenly realized that the man standing before her was her boyfriend.

“Li Wei, what… what are you doing here?” Xiao Li’s face showed a flash of panic.

It wasn’t like she’d done anything to betray her boyfriend, but at this moment, her mind was filled with thoughts of another man.

For someone as traditionally reserved as Xiao Li, this was a first.

“What’s the matter, Li Li?

Are you unhappy to see me?” The man sounded slightly displeased.

“No, no, it’s not that, I just didn’t expect you to suddenly show up.

You should’ve told me first—I mean, I’m so excited to see you.” Xiao Li forced a smile and spoke.

“Haha, Li Li, it’s been ages since we’ve seen each other.

Come on, get me a room,” Li Wei said impatiently.

“I’m… I’m on my shift right now.” Xiao Li stammered.

For some reason, she was feeling an unsettling sense of disgust towards her boyfriend.

“Xiao Li, are you hiding something from me?” Li Wei started to sound unhappy.

He was the type of person who loved jumping to conclusions; suspicious by nature.

Xiao Li had always been very compliant whenever she saw him, quickly arranging a short-stay room for them.

But today, her reaction was different.

“No, it’s nothing…” Xiao Li muttered with her head down.

But her heart was in turmoil.

What’s wrong with me?

Is it just because he gave that Sister Qin an Audi?

Wu Li, oh Wu Li, are you turning out to be just like those materialistic women?

Xiao Li was incredibly conflicted, unable to understand why she felt this way.

Could it really be that she liked Wang Dadong simply because he was rich?

Honestly, it wasn’t that strange.

Her boyfriend’s gifts were usually just knock-off LV bags worth a couple hundred bucks at most—a far cry from Wang Dadong, who generously compensated Li Qin with an Audi after she sold her car.

For someone like Xiao Li, who earned barely over three thousand a month, this was shockingly extravagant.

Though many people wouldn’t admit it, the reality remained: the wealthier and more successful a man was, the more attractive he seemed to women.

Seeing Xiao Li hesitating and stammering, Li Wei grew even more suspicious.

He came close to her and started sniffing around like a woman checking if her man had cheated.

“What are you doing!” Xiao Li yelled in anger, pushing Li Wei away.

His action was undoubtedly a sign of distrust.

Even though Xiao Li had an average build and acne-prone skin, she was still more than good enough for someone like Li Wei.

To avoid any misunderstanding, Xiao Li made sure not to even speak much to other men during her time off, yet Li Wei still had the audacity to distrust her.

Thinking about Wang Dadong’s generosity compared to her boyfriend’s pettiness, Xiao Li felt wronged and upset.

“Xiao Li, are you seeing another man behind my back?” Li Wei asked with a darkened expression.

“What nonsense are you spouting!” Xiao Li frowned in protest.

Li Wei sneered coldly, “Nonsense?

Then why are you so afraid to let me check?”

“Why… why do I have to let you check?” Xiao Li said nervously.

Even though nothing had happened between her and Wang Dadong, her heart was undeniably unsettled.

“Of course I get to check!

I buy you bags and makeup, take you out to eat—you owe me this much!” Li Wei exclaimed self-righteously.

“Who… who even wanted your bags and makeup?

I can buy my own!” Xiao Li retorted angrily.

What’s so great about those knock-off LV bags he gave me anyway?

I was too embarrassed to even use them.

Whereas Wang Dadong—he didn’t have much of a relationship with Sister Qin, yet he went ahead and gifted her an Audi right away.

“Wait, where’s the ring I gave you?” Suddenly, Li Wei noticed that Xiao Li wasn’t wearing the ring he’d given her.

He flew into a rage and yelled, “Xiao Li, did you give the ring I bought you to another man?!”

“I DID NOT!”

“If not, then show me the ring!”

“Fine, I’ll show you!” Furious, Xiao Li grabbed her handbag and began searching for the ring.

But after rummaging through her bag for a long time, she couldn’t find it.

“Well?

Can’t find it, can you?

I bet you gave it to some other guy!

I can’t believe I’ve been shelling out money to support you every day!” Li Wei cursed bitterly.

Meanwhile, in his room, Wang Dadong was about to light a cigarette.

Suddenly, a shiny diamond ring dropped to the floor.

Wang Dadong instantly remembered—this was the ring Xiao Li had given him for Li Qin as collateral earlier.

They had left in such a hurry that Xiao Li hadn’t taken it back, so he had stuffed it in his pocket and completely forgotten to return it to her.

Quickly putting on his clothes, he told the Little Nurse he’d step out for a moment, and then left the room to return the ring to Xiao Li.

A ring was a serious item.

If the Little Nurse were to see it, she might misunderstand and think he was proposing.

Of course, proposing wasn’t out of the question, but this ring belonged to Xiao Li.

“You shameless woman!

Sneaking around behind my back with another man—I’ll beat you to death!” By now, a crowd had gathered around the front desk.

Li Wei was yanking Xiao Li’s hair and slapping her across the face.

The onlookers shook their heads but made no attempt to intervene.

After all, this kind of matter was hard to meddle in.

If their own wives were caught cheating, they’d probably feel the same fury.

“What’s going on here?

Why are you hitting her?” Seeing the usually kind Xiao Li being attacked, Wang Dadong rushed over, grabbing Li Wei’s hand and frowning.

“I’m beating my own woman—what’s it to you?” Li Wei shoved Wang Dadong aside, his tone belligerent.

“Women are meant to be cherished, not beaten!” Wang Dadong said, frowning.

“I buy her bags, makeup, and even a diamond ring.

She should be loyal to me, not sneaking around with other men!

Don’t you think she deserves this beating?”

“I DID NOT sneak around with anyone!” Xiao Li’s face was red and swollen from the slaps, tears streaming down as she sobbed.
