Chapter 1218 Private Industry

"Um..." Xia Chuqi slowly opened his eyes, and he was still a little dizzy, only feeling a little sore on the back of his neck.

She slowly sat up, twisted her neck, rubbed her temples, and sat quietly against the head of the bed for a while, only to find that the surrounding environment was completely unfamiliar.

"Where is this place?" Xia Chuqi muttered to himself, lifted the covered quilt, lowered his head and looked at his clothes. He was shocked and touched his face again, and found that the injuries on his face seemed to be bandaged again.

She got up and went to the bedroom, rolled up her sleeves and looked at it. Even the wounds that were cut by the sharp claws of the Tibetan mastiff had been re-banded, but she didn't realize it, and even when the clothes on her body were changed into pajamas!

She still remembered that she had planned to escape at night in Feng Yan's villa, but she was almost caught by Feng Yan and his men. At that time, Pedro led a group of men to arrive in time and beat Feng Yan and the group of men to the point of urination. She also landed on Pedro's hands and was forced to take Pedro's plane!

On the plane, she wanted to use the only remaining gun she had, but she didn't expect that Pedro calculated that she had no bullets, and gave her a phone without signals, and then knocked her out!

Xia Chuqi frowned, stood up and looked around the huge room, then suddenly walked to the window and opened the curtains. He thought he would be taken to a deserted island again, but this time it was beyond her expectations.

Outside the window was a bustling street, with all kinds of people passing by underground, and there were many cars parked, but the floor where she was located was very high. When she leaned over, she felt that the pedestrians and vehicles were very small!

She looked outside in confusion, wondering which city Pedro brought him to, not far from Feng Xun, and not even knowing if Feng Xun had sent someone to Feng Yan's island villa and found that she was no longer there!

Xia Chuqi did not find the landline in this room, so he tried to open the door, but failed to open the first time. As a result, when he tried the second time, the door was suddenly opened from outside, and the face of a somewhat familiar woman came into view.

"Miss Xia, you are awake!" The person who spoke was not someone else, but Pedro's loyal female subordinate. Lacey, who had been serving and guarding her at Pedro's manor!

"Laixi, it's you..." Xia Chuqi couldn't say anything but was surprised when he saw her. He subconsciously sighed: "So you are not dead!"

Laixi shrugged helplessly and smiled self-deprecatingly: "Yes, it seems that I am not dead, which disappoints Miss Xia..."

"I didn't mean that!" Xia Chuqi waved his hand and replied awkwardly: "I was just a little surprised to see you. I thought something happened to you in Juarez, Mexico. After all, Pedro's manor had been blown up..."

That time, Feng Xun obtained a permit from the Mexican military and drove a military vehicle to encircle Pedro's nest. Pedro also lost many of his subordinates, but he did not expect that Laixi would be spared!

"Yes, that time Feng Xun took action, but it caused our boss to suffer heavy losses!" Laixi nodded in agreement, and couldn't help but feel scared when talking about that incident.

"Fortunately, I realized something was wrong and left early, otherwise my life would have been killed there, and I wouldn't have seen Miss Xia again today!"

Lacey's tone was very relieved, and there was not much complaining. When Xia Chuqi heard her say this, she didn't know how to take her words. She just asked tentatively: "Lacey, was Pedro who sent you here?"

"Yes, Boss Pedro asked me to continue serving Miss Xia!" Laixi nodded slightly and asked with a smile: "Miss Xia, you just woke up. Are you feeling uncomfortable? If there is any, I will call the doctor!"

"No..." Xia Chuqi waved his hand and pointed to his throat and said, "But I don't know how long I've been in a coma. When I wake up, my throat is a little dry!"

"Sorry, Boss Pedro is worried that you will hurt yourself when you wake up, so you didn't have someone put a kettle and water cup in your room!"

Laixi apologized to Xia Chuqi, and said with a light smile to Xia Chuqi: "If Miss Xia doesn't mind, come with me, there are fruits and various pastries outside!"

Xia Chuqi didn't expect that Pedro would let him leave the room this time. He was secretly happy and hurriedly followed Laixi out of the room and came to the living room.

"Miss Xia, please sit down!" Laixi pointed to the soft sofa in the living room and said politely to Xia Chuqi.

Xia Chuqi sat down slowly, looked around, and found that the living room seemed far from the size of Pedro's manor in Mexico before, and the decoration style was a bit strong. The blue walls had red decorative paintings, which did not look like that kind of private residence, but more like a hotel!

Could it be that Pedro was not afraid of leaking his identity and whereabouts, so he took her directly to a hotel?

"Miss Xia, please!" Laixi handed her a cup of warm water, brought her a plate of fresh fruit and pastries on the other side, and said with a faint smile: "Miss Xia should be hungry even if she sleeps for so long. Eat some fruits and snacks first to be at the bottom. A regular meal will be delivered later!"

"Thank you!" Xia Chuqi took the water cup and drank two sips. He felt his throat more comfortable. He put the water cup and ate two pieces of fruit. He asked inquiry: "Laixi, can you tell me where is this?"

Lacey hesitated for a while and had no answer.

Xia Chuqi carefully observed her reaction and asked with a smile: "If you don't want to answer, just let me guess. This is not Pedro's private manor or villa, right? Is this a hotel?"

Laixi was stunned for a moment, never expecting that Xia Chuqi would guess so quickly.

As soon as she saw Laixi's surprised expression, Xia Chuqi knew that she had guessed it, and shrugged and sighed: "It turns out that it's really in a hotel. I said why is the decoration style so similar to the hotel!"

When she said this, she picked up the water cup and took a sip, and said thoughtfully: "But your boss actually brought me to the hotel, aren't you afraid of being known?"

"This is the boss's industry. If anyone leaks the news, he will be seeking death!" Laixi answered quickly.

"So that's how it is! Is Pedro's private property..." Xia Chuqi suddenly realized, put down the water cup and tasted the pastry, then shook his head and said with some disgust: "This pastry tastes too bad, Laixi, you should tell your boss that if you want to build a high-end hotel, you can't prepare such a bad pastry to entertain guests!"
