There were not many items in the storage room. After moving things around, the two of them cleared enough space to lay down a floor mat, deciding to leave Li Xiangfeng's belongings untouched.
The company had meticulously integrated all the urban legends born at Congyun Hotel in recent years. The more Duan Mingyuan read, the more he felt these legends were so detailed that they could practically serve as a comprehensive lore book for the Congyun Hotel.
He had impulsively bid 50 million just a moment ago, intending it to be his final offer, hoping to use this last bid to make the person in Private Room No. 8 suffer a massive financial loss.
Whether by visiting in person or sending researchers from the institute, he had managed to wring a significant amount of advanced technology out of Jiang Nan.
Zhou Xun's business had become quite busy during this period. He had been rushing around throughout September, but finally managed to carve out a few days before National Day to spend some quality time with Jiang Nan.
Now that things had returned to normal, the massive GSL army swarmed in. The popularity of the livestream room surged from 50,000 to 500,000 in less than a minute and continued to rise. The comments were so dense, like a swarm of locusts, that they made one's scalp tingle.

That was her father, the father she had missed for over a decade, yet he felt more like a stranger than the peddler selling bean curd who walked past her grandmother's door.
