Chapter 241: The Big Star’s Gratitude

Last time, their intimate photo with Zhang Yuxi, and their post on their Moments saying they had dinner with her, immediately caused a sensation in their respective circles of friends.

It was lively for several days. People in their Moments contacted them one after another to ask about the details. When they learned that they had really had dinner with Zhang Yuxi, and also heard that their god-brother (boyfriend) was friends with a major shareholder of Zhang Yuxi’s company, it attracted a wave of envy, flattery, and adulation from their relatives and friends in their Moments, which greatly satisfied their vanity.

But it also brought them some troubles. For example, some relatives and friends asked them to get Zhang Yuxi’s autograph, or to help them find a job, or even to borrow money from them directly.

Some were more tactful, saying that they had a project that was guaranteed to make money and asked them to partner up in business. And some people were whimsical, hoping to contact Zhang Yuxi through them, asking them to introduce Zhang Yuxi to them, and even asking them to invite Zhang Yuxi out for a meeting.

And so, it really gave them a headache for several days.

Hearing Sun Xiaorui’s words, Wu Mengting’s idea of asking Yang Ziying for an autograph and a photo was mostly dispelled.

“Xiaorui is right. She’s not a star you like. There’s no need for an autograph and a photo. Besides, she’s not very willing.”

Wu Mengting hesitated for a while. When she looked back for Yang Ziying, she was already gone, so she could only give up.

It was not far from their hotel. The four of them walked back slowly.

When they reached the hotel lobby, they were surprised to see Yang Ziying again. At this time, she was looking anxious and was communicating with the front desk clerk.

Her spoken English was okay, but perhaps because she was a little nervous, her meaning was not very clear. And this front desk clerk’s English was not very good, so the communication between the two sides was not very smooth.

Chen Feng and the other three listened for a while and finally understood. It turned out that her luggage in the hotel had been stolen. Inside were her passport and documents, as well as some personal information. More importantly, the watch and jewelry worth 500,000 euros that she had placed in the safe in her room were also gone.

After Chen Feng understood, he immediately took the three women over and said to Yang Ziying, “Hello, Yang Ziying. We’ve heard about your situation. Have you called the police?”

When Yang Ziying heard Chen Feng speak in her native language and looked at his appearance, she couldn’t help but be stunned for a moment. She felt a little familiar, but she couldn’t remember it at once. But in any case, he was a fellow countryman, so she felt a little more at ease. She quickly said, “I asked the front desk to call the police. But she said that she had to get the manager’s approval. She has already contacted the manager and has to wait for him to come. I want to call the police myself, but I don’t know the police number here.”

Chen Feng glanced at the front desk lady. Seeing her professional smile, he said to Anna, “Anna, please help call the police. Then, tell the front desk to have their manager show up within five minutes, otherwise we will collectively complain about their hotel.”

“Okay, boss.”

After Anna agreed, she immediately took out her phone and called the police. She explained the situation, and she spoke in the local official language of Austria, German. Of course, the front desk lady understood, and her face immediately changed.

After calling the police, Anna relayed Chen Feng’s words to the front desk in a firm tone in German. The front desk immediately apologized repeatedly and said that she would immediately urge their manager.

After speaking, the front desk did indeed call to urge the manager.

And on Chen Feng’s side, he asked Wu Mengting to contact the embassy immediately. When you are abroad, the first thing to do when something happens is to contact the embassy for help. In this regard, Wu Mengting and Sun Xiaorui had made sufficient preparations before going abroad. They had recorded the phone numbers of the embassies in every European country.

Even if there was no record, with the internet so developed now, a search would do.

When Yang Ziying heard Chen Feng ask Wu Mengting to call the embassy, she said with some helplessness, “I called the embassy’s number before, but I couldn’t get through.”

Wu Mengting took out her phone and found the embassy’s number here. While dialing, she said to Yang Ziying, “I’ll try calling first.”

And then… she got through, which made Yang Ziying stunned. Heaven have mercy, she had called three times in a row before, but she had not gotten through once.

And Wu Mengting got through on the first try. There was really no reason to say.

Wu Mengting told the people at the embassy about the situation, and the other party immediately said that they would send someone over.

Not long after Wu Mengting hung up the phone, the hotel manager finally arrived. His attitude was very sincere and even humble as he apologized to Yang Ziying and Chen Feng’s group, and said that their hotel would actively cooperate with the police investigation.

In less than ten minutes, the people from the embassy arrived first. The hotel was very close to the embassy. The Austrian police arrived a little late and finally appeared.

When these local police saw that the people from the Rabbit Country embassy had come, and knew that the victim was a big star from the Rabbit Country, they immediately took it seriously. They immediately checked the hotel’s surveillance video, and not long after, they sent two agents to take over the case. They quickly locked onto the thief.

By the time they were done, it was almost eleven o’clock at night. The crowd dispersed, leaving Chen Feng’s group and Yang Ziying.

“Thank you so much this time.”

Yang Ziying took the initiative to thank Chen Feng’s group.

Chen Feng said politely, “We didn’t help much. But why did you come out alone this time? It’s too unsafe.”

Yang Ziying smiled bitterly, “I have a brand event here in two days, the kind that requires me to dress up, so I brought valuable jewelry. It just so happens that I wanted to be alone for these two days and relax. In addition, I have been to Austria many times, and I feel that the security here is very good. Everyone doesn’t know me, and nothing has ever happened, so I came here alone first. My two assistants and manager will come to meet me tomorrow. I didn’t expect something to happen today.”

After hearing what Yang Ziying said, the few of them finally understood the reason. As a top star in the country, Yang Ziying would definitely have someone with her when she traveled, even when she was abroad. The reason why she was alone this time must be her own reason. She didn’t want anyone to follow her.

Wu Mengting said, “This hotel is a five-star hotel after all. How could this happen? I feel that the possibility of an inside job is relatively high.”

Sun Xiaorui said, “Looking at the surveillance, the thief’s entire process was very natural. He swiped his card to enter the room, and then came out in less than two minutes. What’s even more outrageous is that you, Ziying, put your jewelry and watch in the safe, but they were also stolen. How did this thief know the password to the safe?”

Chen Feng guessed, “The security of the electronic safes in this kind of hotel is not high. I’ve seen it online before. It seems that there is a manager mode. As long as you enter the manager mode and then enter the default manager password, you can generally open the safe. So, it’s not necessarily an inside job from the hotel. But it’s certain that this thief is very familiar with the hotel’s procedures. He may have worked in a hotel-related job before. And he should be a repeat offender.”

Yang Ziying nodded in agreement, “The actual situation should be about the same as you said. By the way, what floor do you live on?”

“Ninth floor, what about you?” Wu Mengting answered and then asked back.

“I also live on the ninth floor. What a coincidence. But can I sleep in the same room with you three women tonight? I’m afraid to stay in the room I booked alone.”

Wu Mengting looked at Chen Feng and let him decide.

Chen Feng met Yang Ziying’s expectant gaze, thought for a moment, and said, “We’re staying in a deluxe suite this time. There are two bedrooms in total. Two people share one room, and my girlfriend and I share one room. If you don’t mind, you can share a room with my girlfriend, and I’ll sleep in your room. We can just switch.”

“Thank you so much. That’s the best. I’m really sorry to trouble you. Your girlfriend is…”

Yang Ziying said happily, and then couldn’t help but look at Wu Mengting. This was very natural, because when she was with them just now, Wu Mengting and Chen Feng were the most intimate and talked more. Sun Xiaorui was the one with the weakest presence among the three women.

Seeing her look at Wu Mengting, Chen Feng was a little embarrassed. Wu Mengting was a little happy and smiled at Yang Ziying.

“She is my god-sister, Wu Mengting. This is my girlfriend, Sun Xiaorui. Anna is a foreign student who came to our country to study. She is our tour guide.”

After Chen Feng’s introduction, Yang Ziying finally understood. She said to Chen Feng with some apology, “I’m really sorry. I still don’t know your name.”

“My name is Chen Feng. It’s fate that we met this time. We didn’t help much. You don’t have to take it to heart.”

“It may be a small effort for you, but it’s a great help to me. Thank you so much this time.”

Wu Mengting smiled and said, “Alright, Ziying, you’ve thanked us several times. If you feel bad about it, you can just sign an autograph and take a photo with me later.”

Yang Ziying also smiled and said, “No problem. I’ll sign and take a photo with you later.”

“Alright then. Now you can pack your luggage and go to our room.”

Yang Ziying smiled bitterly, “My entire suitcase was stolen. Now, besides the clothes I’m wearing, I have no other clothes.”

Wu Mengting immediately said generously, “I see that your figure is not much different from mine. If you don’t mind, you can wear my clothes first. Tomorrow, we can take you to the shops here to buy a few sets of suitable clothes.”

“Then I won’t be polite.”

Wu Mengting said with a grin, “What’s there to be polite about? It’s my honor that a big star like you is willing to wear my clothes.”

“Anyway, thank you.”

“Haha, you really don’t have to be so polite to us. I’m your fan. You can just sign a few more autographs for me later.”

Wu Mengting was very happy to get Yang Ziying’s autograph and photo back. She immediately pulled her to the room to simply pack some of her things that had not been stolen, and then took her to their room.

They were on the same floor, not far from each other.

With Yang Ziying around, Chen Feng, the only male, did not stay long. After packing his things, he went to Yang Ziying’s original room, closed the door and locked it, then took off his clothes and went to the bathroom to take a shower.

Walking into the shower, he suddenly saw a sexy flesh-colored lace underwear hanging on the handle of the sliding door. This was really…

After looking at it for a few times, Chen Feng, like a gentleman, did not look at it again. Then he washed his hair and took a shower. After he had lathered up with shower foam, he couldn’t help but look at it a few more times. Then he couldn’t help but think of the appearance of the big star Yang Ziying. It was human nature and inevitable.

He didn’t know if she still remembered that this underwear was left in the shower. She probably would remember.

But even if she remembered and came to look for it, and then couldn’t find it, she probably wouldn’t think that Chen Feng had taken it. Instead, she might think that the thief had stolen it.

After this thought suddenly popped into Chen Feng’s mind, he almost wanted to slap himself.

He was an intellectual who had received higher education. When did his thoughts become so dirty?

Chen Feng resisted the temptation and finally did not reach out to take this private item of Yang Ziying.

He was a gentleman.

After quickly finishing his shower, Chen Feng wrapped himself in a bath towel and hurried out of the bathroom.

Lying on the bed, he picked up his phone to divert his attention, but he immediately thought:

If he didn’t take this private item and make it disappear, what if Yang Ziying came to look for it tomorrow and found it? She would definitely think that he had touched it, or even desecrated it. Wouldn’t he be very wronged?

With this contradictory thought, Chen Feng was not in the mood to browse his phone for a while.

At the same time, Wu Mengting asked Yang Ziying to sign ten autographs for her at once. A few of them were signed with names and inscriptions. They were mainly for her mother, Chen Feng’s mother, and even Guo Mengyao, Lin Yujiao, and Lin Wan.

Sun Xiaorui and Anna were not so greedy. They only asked for one autograph each.

Then there were the selfies with Yang Ziying. The three women took turns taking several photos with her, and the four of them also took a few photos together.

After they were done, it was already half an hour later. It was getting late, so the four of them separated.

Wu Mengting took the initiative to ask to share a room with Yang Ziying, and the other three women did not object.

So, Wu Mengting took Yang Ziying back to the room and let her take a shower first. She found suitable clothes for her. After choosing for a while, Yang Ziying was not polite to her and chose a pretty good set of clothes. She was a star and a public figure, so she couldn’t dress too shabbily.

Yang Ziying went to take a shower first. She was also considerate and only took a dozen minutes to come out wrapped in a bathrobe. Then, Wu Mengting went in to wash, and she also quickly washed and came out in a dozen minutes.

Then, she lay on the same bed with Yang Ziying and started chatting.

It was already early in the morning. In China, most people would have been asleep at this time, but in Vienna, this time was not too late.

Because the sun set here at almost nine o’clock in the evening, so now in the early morning, it was equivalent to ten o’clock in the evening in China. It couldn’t be said to be very late.

“Are you just traveling this time? What places have you been to?”

Yang Ziying used this topic to start a conversation and quickly got along with Wu Mengting.

Wu Mengting told her about their travel experiences and what they had seen in Europe during this period. Yang Ziying asked a few questions from time to time, which made Wu Mengting talk with great enthusiasm.

When she was almost done, Yang Ziying asked some in-depth questions about the four of them. Wu Mengting didn’t hide anything and basically told her everything.

Finally, Wu Mengting also specifically mentioned the time she met her at the Jintai Department Store in Xiuzhou.

Being reminded by Wu Mengting, and since it was only about twenty days ago, Yang Ziying suddenly understood why she felt a little familiar when she saw Chen Feng this time.

At that time, at the Jintai Department Store, she had met Chen Feng. When Chen Feng knew that she was Yang Ziying, he had taken the initiative to step aside and let her go. After that, he had been looking down at his phone and had not looked at her, treating her as a passer-by.

At that time, for her, Chen Feng’s first impression was very deep.
