Chapter 1074
Smiling, Lina held onto Zuko’s arm and rested her head on his shoulder. In truth, seeing fireflies wasn’t
a priority for her as long as she had Zuko by her side.
“You’ve just arrived. You should rest,” Lina said, looking at him. “Hmm… Let me get you a hotel room.”
“No need!” Zuko replied, holding her hand and gently pressing his forehead against hers. “I can’t afford
such an expensive hotel.”
“Don’t tell me you came here empty-handed!” Lina eximed.
“I didn’t,” Zuko reassured her, showing his bag. “I brought clothes!”
“You…” Lina’s eyes widened as realization dawned on her. “Don’t tell me you want to sleep in the same
room with me?”
“Mm-hmm!” Zuko nodded earnestly. “That’s a great idea!”
“Zeke!” Lina eximed in disbelief.
“What? You don’t want to take me in?” Zuko whispered in her ear, his voice growing deeper. “Can you
bear to… leave me on the streets in this unfamiliar ce?”
Lina gave him a stern look.
“I’m here.” Zuko continued, using his persuasive charm. “I spent all the money I saved for the ne
ticket. If you don’t let me stay with you, I’ll really have to sleep on the streets tonight…”
“Okay, okay!” Lina blushed and chuckled, pursing her lips. “Come with me!”
Zuko beamed happily, finally achieving his goal.
“Hey, let’s split upter. We don’t want to draw attention,” Lina suggested.
“Hmm, okay,” Zuko agreed.
“Follow me and run to the elevator!” Lina instructed.
Zuko nodded. “Got it.”
“Lower your cap, Zeke. We don’t want to attract any attention,” Lina advised.
Zuko smiled andplied with all her requests.
Lina walked ahead and instinctively lowered her head as she passed the hotel front desk. She
discreetly signaled to Zuko with her hand at her side, urging him to catch up.
However, Zuko purposely slowed down his pace, wanting to savor the sight of her nervous
expression.Books Chapters Are Daily Updated Join & Stay Updated For All Books Updates…
The front desk staff and the lobby manager were taken aback when they spotted Zuko. They
questioned their eyesight before confirming that it was indeed the young Count of the Irwins standing
before them.
Although the Irwins were shareholders of the hotel, they had never been hosted there before.
Whenever Zuko visited Southeast Aciatic, he would stay at the Irwin Manor, the general’s estate, or
even the pce. When would a five-star hotel ever have the opportunity to amodate him?
But today…
The manager tried topose himself, his heart racing. There was a glimmer of excitement in his
eyes, and he attempted to offer a respectful bow as if he had encountered the God of Fortune himself.
However, Zuko’s fierce re halted him in his tracks.Text ? 2024 N?velDrama.Org.
Meanwhile, Lina continued to hurry ahead of Zuko, oblivious to themotion behind her.
Eventually, Zuko caught up with her, having given the manager a piercing look.
Lina only nced back when they entered their room, feeling more at ease now, and let out a long
sigh.
“ording to Southeast Aciaticw, it’s illegal for two people to stay in the same room when I only
registered one person with the hotel!” Lina expressed her concern, but she noticed Zuko’s calm
demeanor. He even went to the refrigerator to grab a drink.
“Zeke…”
Zuko reassured her, “Don’t worry. They won’t find out I’m here.”
And even if they did, they wouldn’t dare take any action against him.
“So, are you going to hide here while I go to ss tomorrow?” Lina asked.
“Hmm, sure.” Zuko chuckled, retrieving a nket from the wall cab and casually draping it over the
couch.
Lina smiled and approached him, wrapping her arms around him.
Zuko could hardly resist the temptation of holding such a beauty in his embrace. A fleeting thought of
regret crossed his mind. Why had he pretended to be noble and settled for sleeping on the couch?
“Zeke…”
