Chapter 853: Are You Going to Abandon Me Just Because I Can’t Move?

Wang Yun shot Big Mouth a helpless look.

Only then did Big Mouth belatedly realize that his question really had been rather inappropriate.

The three of them might be in the same car right now, but neither he nor Wang Yun could guarantee that the man in front of them truly had no ill intentions at all. Especially since Big Mouth could not move at the moment and was nothing but a burden.

Big Mouth quickly forced a laugh to smooth things over.

“Brother, your hiding place is really something. No wonder you haven’t been found all this time.”

The moment the words left his mouth, Big Mouth saw Wang Yun looking at him as if to say he was hopeless.

He immediately let out a few stiff laughs to ease the awkwardness.

“Heh… heh…”

Colin, sitting in front, did not feel offended by Big Mouth’s question. It was just that the place really was not easy to explain openly.

“It’s not that I don’t want to tell you. It’s just not convenient to explain directly. You’ll understand once we get there. After we arrive, I’ll explain everything.”

Seeing that he seemed sincere enough, Wang Yun agreed.

“Alright.”

For the rest of the drive, none of the three spoke again.

Wang Yun was patient enough to remain silent. Colin simply did not know what to say for the moment.

As for Big Mouth, after Wang Yun glared at him, he did not dare open his mouth again.

At last, the car arrived at the underground parking garage of Mu City’s largest hotel—the Parr Hotel.

Colin turned around, took off his sunglasses, and looked at Wang Yun with a serious expression.

“Brother Wang Yun, I know who you are. You were the final winner of last season. The reason I came to you today is because I really have something I want to ask of you. This is where I’ve been staying lately. The inspectors generally don’t come into territory controlled by local forces like this. Big Mouth’s situation is a bit special right now, so why don’t we get him inside first? We can talk after that.”

Before Wang Yun could respond, Big Mouth, who had been holding himself back for too long.

“Damn, Colin, this is way too cool. You found yourself a backer and are basically coasting through the show,” he blurted out in envy.

Hearing Big Mouth say the exact same thing he himself had once thought, Colin could not help giving a bitter smile.

There were never that many free windfalls in this world.

“This isn’t the place to talk. Let’s go upstairs first.”

Wang Yun gave Big Mouth a light kick as punishment and nodded.

At this point, Big Mouth was like a stroke patient.

Colin got out of the car, came around to Big Mouth’s side, opened the door for him, and helped him out. Then the three of them took the elevator straight up to the sixteenth floor of the hotel.

There were not many rooms on this floor, and most of them were suites.

The entire floor had been booked out by Baren’s people, and there were even two men standing guard by the elevator.

When they saw Colin return, both greeted him respectfully.

“Brother Colin, you’re back.”

Colin merely nodded lightly and said nothing more.

He led the two of them to his room at the far right end of the floor.

After entering, the two of them helped Big Mouth over to the sofa.

Then Colin went to the refrigerator and got drinks for the two of them.

“Make yourselves at home for a moment. I’ll get you something to drink.”

Big Mouth was full of envy as he looked around the room.

“Alright, alright,” he said absentmindedly.

It was a suite, with a sitting room and two bedrooms. The sofa in the sitting room stood beside the floor-to-ceiling windows.

From there, they could see half of Mu City.

Wang Yun was also looking over the room, though his focus was entirely different from Big Mouth’s.

There were cigarette butts in the ashtray on the coffee table.

The slippers in the room had clearly been used.

When they came in, Colin’s clothes had been hanging by the entrance.

And Colin moved about the place with complete familiarity.

He had clearly been living here for quite some time.

Big Mouth strained to turn his neck. Even though his body would not cooperate, that did not stop his desire to enjoy the view.

Looking out the window, he complained to Wang Yun,

“Boss, boss, look at the room this guy gets while doing the show. Now this looks like the way contestants should be living. Then look at the little inn we’ve been staying in.”

Wang Yun looked at him and replied evenly,

“Then you stay here with Colin. I’ll go back by myself.”

Big Mouth’s expression changed instantly. He raised his voice and pretended to cry.

“Boss, you can’t be such a heartless man. Now that I can’t move, you’re just going to dump me? You don’t want me anymore.”

Just then, Colin came back in and saw Big Mouth putting on an act.

A trace of envy rose in him.

He handed one of the drinks to Wang Yun, then thoughtfully opened another bottle, inserted a straw, and held it up to Big Mouth’s mouth.

Big Mouth immediately smiled and thanked him.

“Thanks, Brother Colin. I was just getting thirsty.”

Then he gulped it down in big swallows, not looking like a patient at all.

Wang Yun knew Big Mouth was only clowning around, so Wang Yun would not worry about him. He could not help shaking his head helplessly.

“The owner of this hotel also runs a private hospital. Whenever these people get injured, that’s where they go for treatment. The medical equipment there is among the most advanced in the world,” Colin said.

At that, he seemed to think of something and gave a faintly mocking smile.

After all, the people who went there for treatment were all rather “special.”

“The only issue is that it’s expensive. But the production team has probably paid you quite a bit already, so I assume you’re not short on money.”
