Taking his time with his steps, the old man Han slowly walked to the corridor's end where his room was. For some unknown reason, after getting the heavy air of the casino club downstairs, he was feeling a little more tired from before. His limbs were turning so heavy that he no longer was feeling any interest in moving them.
"Aye, why is it so tiring? I was all fine before" he mumbled under his breath as he fidgeted in his pocket to get out his room card to open the door. But right then his phone rang, causing him to take the call while pressing the card over the card sensing pad. "Umm … Yes, don't worry. I won't be staying here for long, darling. Tomorrow, taking the flight I will be back to you. Mwah!!" He said, coaxing some woman on the call while twisting the doorknob and pushing it open.
But the moment, he stepped into the room all his thoughts of rationality flew out of the window, seeing someone sitting cross-legged in the darkness.
"Who are you? And what are you doing in my room?" Mr Han asked, disconnecting the call he was on and then turning around, he tried to find the switchboard of the room's lighting system. But his movements were getting more and more lethargic, making him almost unable to move around.
Something seemed a little off about his room. Given the 7-star rating of the hotel, everything should be top-notch, yet the lighting system of the place seems off and now even …
The remainder of the thoughts were left stuck in his mind when suddenly every light of the room was turned on following by a cold greeting chuckle from the corner. "Hadn't it been long, Mr Han? I hope you were doing well in all these years".
The old man Han at once turned around at the voice. There was no way he could forget that voice which he had d.e.s.i.r.ed to hear in his nights. His eyes were surprised but even in that surprise, his gaze didn't miss the opportunity to stare at the woman impudently. She didn't seem to change even after 5 long years. Definitely, her beauty was created by Heaven to give mankind a tough time on Earth to control their d.e.s.i.r.e.
"Li Xue, you are here. What a pleasant surprise? You know I have never thought we would meet like this again, or much say like in a more better way. As in this time, you have come here willingly on your own and that too without being under any alcoholic influence. So, what do I think I should take this as? Are you finally here to …"
"To give you what you wanted and deserved all this time, Mr Han?" Li Xue completed his intended words at once, taking a favourable pause. Of course, she was not heedless of the things the man wanted from her. Neither she has been in the past, nor in the present. But just because some douchebag wants to have his ways with you, doesn't provide him with the license to do so. She has her choices, one of which she has decided to let the man know today. "I am glad that Mr Han is surprised to see me here. I have always intended to bring him the best surprise. Now, I am not sure if Mr Han takes it as a pleasant one or otherwise". She added in continuation of her previous words.
The old man Han was startled at her choice of words, that was the first time she was showing her willingness for him. He would not have brought himself to believe her if it had been the woman 5 years ago. At that time her principled arrogance had the tales that none could think to ignore. But right now, he deemed the things to change, given the failed self the woman has become losing her career and her everything.
"Seems like our beauty Li Xue has learnt her lessons well. I have heard you are entering back into the industry. Are you here to get a favour from me? No problem, if you are, as you know I have always kept a soft corner for you and will help you to make you happy. And in return, you can make me happy back. Isn't that a very fair deal?" The man said quite boldly without giving any heed to the changes that were warning him otherwise.
Li Xue's lips curled up slightly to give the half-smile. "Indeed! Where can I get a fairer deal than this? But before going on the deal, I have a few questions to ask you, Mr Han. I would be more than pleased if I could get those answers."
Sensing the fugitive explosives in her words, the man gave a dried laugh. "You have yet not changed, Li Xue. I can see, you still hold the grudges. But what's the use of holding the dead's ashes. It would never bring the dead back. Let go of all those stuff and focus on the things you can get in the future. You should be happy that even after getting all tainted because of you 5 years ago, I still have not reduced the soft place I always have for you in my heart. See, even now, I have kept my offer all open for you and it will remain the same in the future too, just for you".
The man said, continuing his laughter but suddenly felt his muscles getting stiff. His eyes looked at the lady in front. She looked charming as ever but something in her expression felt amiss from his derived thoughts. The smile on her expressions was promising him about something that he only came to realize now. His words came to his lips to ask her but it felt tougher and tougher to voice them out.
His hands got up to grasp his neck as he winced with some agony. His leg staggered, losing the footing and slumping down on the floor.
But no surprise came to Li Xue's expression as if all this time she was already expecting this to come.
"You are talking so much about the future, Mr Han. But are you sure you have one tomorrow?" she asked with a sadistic glint in her eyes that almost made the soul of the old man leave his body.
"Li Xue, what did you do to me?"
