Chapter 2277: Chapter 2277: Custom-Made Lover (12)

Shu Family.

"Why hasn’t Zhixi come back yet?" Mother Shu paced back and forth in the living room, unable to get through on the phone, and couldn’t contact the people with Shu Zhixi either.

"Madam."

Someone came back from outside, and Mother Shu anxiously went up to them: "So, did you find her?"

The person shook their head: "No."

"Keep looking!!"

Where could she have gone?

For the past two days, Shu Zhixi had been in a daze, and today she finally said she wanted to go out for a walk.

Mother Shu was worried and wanted to accompany her, but Shu Zhixi refused. Mother Shu didn’t dare to irritate her further, so she agreed, and in the end, Shu Zhixi only took the driver with her.

But now she hasn’t come back at this hour.

Mother Shu now deeply regrets it.

Why did she agree to let Shu Zhixi go out alone?

If she had gone with her, none of this would have happened.

Father Shu received the news and hurriedly rushed home.

Unfortunately, there’s still no news.

It’s as if Shu Zhixi suddenly vanished from this world.

The Shu family was in chaos, with Father Shu blaming Mother Shu for not accompanying Shu Zhixi, while Mother Shu could do nothing but sob repeatedly.

The next evening, Mother Shu received an anonymous call.

The conversation revealed nothing, only an address was given.

Shu Zhixi was found by the river, barely alive, and taken to the hospital.

After various examinations, her body hadn’t suffered any major injuries, only some abrasions at most.

"Who did this! Who on earth did this! We must catch this person; I want them to die a terrible death!"

Mother Shu clutched Father Shu, her tone full of anger and hatred.

That her precious child could be treated like this!

"Alright, keep your voice down," Father Shu scolded with a frown. "I’ve already investigated, and there’s no clue whatsoever. We don’t even know who took Zhixi."

This matter is very bizarre.

Despite mobilizing so many resources, he hadn’t found any useful leads.

Who targeted Zhixi?

Did this incident target Zhixi or the entire Shu family?

Mother Shu was agitated: "So what do we do? We can’t just let it go, can we? Zhixi is my only child; I can’t just let it go!"

Father Shu: "We’ll ask Zhixi once she wakes up, see if she knows anything."

Shu Zhixi only woke up the next day.

Distressed, she screamed at anyone who approached, as if she’d been through something extremely traumatic.

In such a situation, it’s impossible to learn anything.

-

Chuzheng saw the news about Shu Zhixi.

But she hadn’t made a move...

Who took her job?

Chuzheng hacked into the hospital system and saw Shu Zhixi on the hospital bed.

She seemed to have been greatly traumatized, but not to the point of madness, and she was already improving.

Chuzheng regretfully exited, with a beep in her mind.

[Beep——]

The photo Chuzheng had seen at the Fong family’s was now fully scanned.

The result was...nothing.

The photo didn’t match anything suspicious.

She had searched not just the internet—surely the hospital, school, these places would have records, right?

But there was nothing.

It’s as if she didn’t exist in this world.

Chuzheng scratched her chin, shelving the matter for now.

She opened the intention email she had sent to Katys Hotel, still with no response.

Time was running out for her...

Fine!

It seemed she would have to go personally.

Chuzheng changed clothes and headed straight for Katys Hotel.

There seemed to be an event at Katys Hotel, with a red carpet at the entrance and reporters...

Chuzheng avoided these people and went inside through another entrance.

"Hello, I’d like to see your manager." Chuzheng casually stopped a hotel employee.

The hotel employee was stunned by the beauty of the young lady in front of him, a hint of amazement and infatuation in his eyes.

How could this girl be so beautiful?

He had seen many beauties at the hotel, but none who could compare to this girl in front of him.

Both her appearance and figure were perfect...

Chuzheng waved her hand in front of him: "Is your manager here?"

"Ah..." The hotel employee came to his senses, blushing and lowering his head: "Do you... Do you have any business?"

Her voice was just as pleasant.

He was going to die!!

"I have some business."

The hotel employee couldn’t even think of refusing, directly saying, "Then please wait a moment in the lounge; I’ll call them for you."

"Alright."

The hotel employee quickly returned, but without anyone else.

He scratched his head awkwardly: "I’m really sorry, the manager is currently busy and can’t leave right now. If you’re not in a hurry, could you wait a bit?"

"Anyone in charge would do."

The hotel employee hesitated, speaking hesitantly: "There’s an event at our hotel today, so..."

There was a problem on that end, and all the people in charge had gone over there.

"Fine, get me a room. When your manager is done, have them call me."

She wanted to lie down!

Sitting there was too stupid!

"Alright, right this way."

As Chuzheng reached the counter, she suddenly remembered that her identity was...a robot.

Even though she had an identity, robots were not allowed to book a room alone unless for their owner...

She could ask Good Person Card for authorization.

But surely Good Person Card would ask her what for...

Too annoying.

And she came to buy the hotel; how could she have an owner!

Just as Chuzheng was about to alter the data to fabricate an identity, she caught sight of a tomboy stealthily passing by.

Chuzheng grabbed the other person by the collar.

"What are you..." Chen Jiao’s words were cut off, surprised by the sight: "What are you doing here?"

Chuzheng: "Ten thousand, help me get a room."

Chen Jiao: "???

Chen Jiao’s identity was that of a Lower City District resident, but the Upper City District had no bizarre restrictions, as long as you could pay.

"Why do you need a room?" Chen Jiao, in the elevator with Chuzheng, had her eyes darting around: "Have you found your owner already?"

"Yes." Owner then, as long as it’s Good Person Card.

"Your owner is rich?" This hotel costs tens of thousands a night.

Not a luxury suite, just a regular room, costs tens of thousands a night.

Yet, there was no shortage of people coming to stay at such hotels, as they never worried about a lack of business.

"..." The bastard is the one who’s rich.

Chen Jiao: "No, why are you booking a room alone? Isn’t it prohibited for you all to book a hotel room alone?"

Many initially used ownerless robots to book rooms; when an incident occurred, they couldn’t find anyone, causing significant trouble.

So they eventually fully restricted the robots’ permissions.

"That’s why I’m asking you to help me book."

"..." Chen Jiao suddenly felt a chill down her spine. Is this some kind of conspiracy?

Chuzheng opened the hotel room door: "What are you doing here?"

"...Just...personal business." Chen Jiao had no intention of going inside. She checked the time, reached out to Chuzheng for payment: "You better hurry up; I’m in a rush."

Chuzheng: "..." It’s rare to meet someone so cooperative!

Chuzheng handed her the money.

"Then I’m off." Chen Jiao spun around and dashed off like lightning.
