"Impossible! Your relationship is so good, Liang Hong will not deceive you. He must have something urgent to do, and he didn't want to disturb your rest, so he left the hotel early alone. Liu Jing, listen to me, you go to have breakfast first, then go back to the room to rest, and wait patiently for Liang Hong to pick you up. You just got out of the car last night, and you're not familiar with the environment of that county, so don't run around, you know?" Lu Yao advised.

"Where am I going? Lu Yao, Liang Hong won't come back to pick me up! Why am I so stupid? I actually listened to his lies. When I stayed in this hotel last night, he told me that this small county town is very chaotic, and at the end of the year, there are many thieves and robbers, and he asked me to put my passbook and valuable things in his suitcase.

At that time, I believed it to be true, so I gave him two passbooks, as well as some gold and silver jewelry that I had asked someone to buy in Hong Kong to wear on the wedding day before leaving Yunhai City, including the passbook where our noodle shop stored reserves. Lu Yao, Liang Hong is a big liar, we were all deceived by him. Liu Jing cried heartbreakingly.

Hearing this, Lu Yao's heart was like pouring a bucket of ice water, and his whole body was shivering. He changed the microphone to his left hand, and after stabilizing his emotions, he asked calmly, "Liu Jing, do you still have any money on you?"

"There are only more than 20 yuan left in change, and the room rate of the hotel is 10 yuan a night, so I can only stay here for one night. Lu Yao, what should I do?" asked Liu Jing crying.

"Liu Jing, don't be nervous! I'll send you money right away. Where are you calling?" Lu Yao asked.

"I called you in the official language of the hotel, and it costs two dollars a minute. I've been on the phone for more than ten minutes, and I don't have enough money to pay for the phone!" Liu Jing cried bitterly.

"Liu Jing, don't get excited! You give the phone to the hotel staff and let me talk to him. Lu Yao hurriedly said.

Then a man's hoarse voice sounded over the microphone: "Hey, what's the matter?"

"Hello, are you the owner of the Station Hotel?" Lu Yao asked politely.

"I am!"

"Hello boss! The girl who called you just now is the owner of our noodle restaurant. She was originally going home with her boyfriend for the New Year, but now she can't find anyone, and all the money she has on her boyfriend is on her. Ask the boss to send a merciful deed, let her stay in your hotel, and I will send her money at once. I will also contact her boyfriend to pick her up at the hotel, thank you!" Lu Yao said.

"Where did you call me? Oh, long distance, it's Yunhai City, right? Hey, do you know what day it is? Tomorrow is the Chinese New Year's Eve, the postal and bank are on holiday, and you won't officially go to work until the sixteenth day of the first month of the new year, how can you send her money? Since she has no money, I'm going to kick her out!" said the boss.

"Boss, please don't kick her out, please let her stay in a hotel! I promise you a penny no matter how long she stays." In this case, please tell me the phone number of the hotel, and we will rush over to pick her up from here, and I will pay you in full by then!" Lu Yao hurriedly said.

"But she has nothing on her, not even an ID card, how can I trust her?

"Boss, could you please write down my ID number?" and then Lu Yao reported his ID number.

"Hey, I wrote down your ID number, when are you going to pick her up?" the boss asked.

"I'll leave immediately, please tell me the name of your county seat and the detailed address of the hotel, thank you!" Lu Yao finished speaking, took the pen and paper handed over by Xiao Ying, and recorded it quickly.

"Young man, this Chinese New Year, she is a girl from other places who is lonely, and it is also pitiful. I'm not going to kick her out. I also know that it will take at least a week for you to come from Yunhai City, and I can let her stay here until next year's Lantern Festival. On the sixteenth day of the first lunar month, if you still haven't come to pick her up, don't blame me for being ruthless!

Although this hotel belongs to the station, it was contracted to me five years ago, and I am now running on my own to cover my own profits and losses, understand? Our business in a small inland county town is not easy to do, and I still have to support my family, I hope you can understand. The boss said.

"Understand! I completely understand! Boss, please rest assured, not only will we not let you suffer, but I will also give you a thank you fee and send you a pennant! I will definitely rush over to pick up Liu Jing before the Lantern Festival, and I will buy 10,000 salutes and put them at the door of your hotel!" Lu Yao tried to pick up the best words.

"Okay! I believe you! Don't worry, we won't treat her badly, and I'll let her celebrate the New Year with us. I saw that her clothes were still very thin, so I immediately brought her a jacket to wear. You can go here in peace, we won't let her starve and freeze. The boss said.

"Thank you, boss! You are really a kind person, and you are also our great benefactor! When I pass, I will definitely thank you again! Boss, please give the phone to Liu Jing, thank you!" Lu Yao said.

Immediately, Liu Jing's trembling voice sounded on the phone: "Lu Yao, do you want to come and pick me up?"

"Yes, I'll leave now, and I should be there in a week. Don't worry, I just told the innkeeper on the phone, you will stay in the hotel before I pass, and he will give you food and drink. Lu Yao said.

"But it's the twenty-ninth day of the lunar month today, and you can't have a long-distance bus to this county seat. Besides, the weather was rainy and snowy all the way over, and many roads were impassable, why did you get here?" asked Liu Jing with a sob.

"It's not a problem, there are no direct long-distance buses, and there are round-trip shuttles between cities. There is always a time when the rain and snow stop, right? As long as the road does not collapse, it will be passable. You don't have to worry, you just stay in the hotel and wait for me to pick you up!" Lu Yao said.

"Alright then, be careful along the way, I'll wait for you. Liu Jing said.

"Okay, I'll be there soon. You go to breakfast first, if you don't have any money, go to the innkeeper and he will help you out. Remember, don't run around!" Lu Yao told again.

"I know, in this cold winter and heavy snow, I am not familiar with life here, I just want to run, but I don't dare to run!" Liu Jing said.

"That's it for now, I'll call you later when I get to the place where there is a phone, goodbye!" Lu Yao said.

"Goodbye!" Liu Jing choked up and hung up the phone.
