I beckoned them to sit down and curiously asked, "Where did you guys go last night?"

The little boy's mother looked much better than last night, no longer timid. She appeared more radiant and beautiful.

She smiled and said, "I brought my son to find his father. We didn't plan to stay in a hotel, but got lost on the way. We ended up coming back and had to stay here first, which made little brother worry about us."

The little boy tugged at my sleeve and said, "My mom's name is Chen Yun, I'm called Cao Xiaoguang, what's the big brother's name?"

I patted his head and said with a smile, "My name is Gao Xing, you can call me Xing Ge. We are considered to have fate, so no need to be too polite."

We chatted for a while, and then Chen Yun asked Xiaoguang to get the food. Both of them brought back a lot of dishes.

I couldn't help but remind, "Yun Jie, no one has touched the meat dishes here. We don't know if there's any problem. I think we shouldn't eat them!"

Chen Yun didn't care and said, "Xiaoguang is still growing, how can he not eat meat?"

She then lovingly touched Xiaoguang's head and said, "Xiaoguang needs to eat more meat to grow up fast!"

Xiaoguang ate voraciously, with oil dripping from his mouth and staining his clothes.

Chen Yun continued to pile what she thought were nutritious pieces of meat onto Xiaoguang's plate.

Watching Xiaoguang eat so greedily, a chill inexplicably swept over me.

My stomach began to contract sharply, and I almost couldn't control the nausea.

At this time, other people in the restaurant moved further away from our table. Even those who were originally closer had somehow moved to a distance.

They huddled together whispering, and I didn't know what they were discussing.

Out of goodwill, I asked.

To my surprise, the mother and son both stopped what they were doing and looked at me in astonishment.

"Big brother, don't you know this place is sealed? We can't leave until three days later!"

Of course, I knew about this, as the card had the rules written on it. But can they really prevent people from leaving?

"I need to go see my girlfriend. Her family arranged a blind date for her, and I have to snatch her back!"

"Big brother, is your girlfriend pretty?"

I laughed and showed Xiaoguang a photo. But after seeing it, his expression turned strange, and he even glanced at his mother.

I was a bit annoyed, and the annoying murmurs from the other guests seemed to echo in my ears again.

Xiaoguang seemed like he wanted to say something, but Chen Yun stopped him and said, "We have something to do, so let's go back first."

I watched in confusion as Chen Yun pulled Xiaoguang and left the restaurant on their own.

Geez, are there no normal people in this place?

I threw my luggage at the front desk and waited for the staff to process it.

But the staff in leather jackets asked with a serious expression, "Sir, is there any problem with your room?"

This irrelevant question annoyed me, and I said loudly, "I said I want to check out!"

The man in leather jacket remained polite but firm in his words.

I was speechless, and angrily said, "I have never heard of a hotel where you can't check out. This is illegal detention, it's against the law!"

The man in leather jacket nonchalantly said, "Sir, the hotel has been completely sealed, and no one can leave. I'm powerless too!"

I was extremely frustrated and went towards the door with my luggage.

I didn't believe that a wooden door could really keep me here. I didn't want to stay here for a second!

I tried to kick the door, but felt a sharp pain in my ankle as the door remained unmoved.

I then used my shoulder to ram against it and even grabbed a chair to smash it wildly. However, the door seemed to be made of solid steel, with no damage done.

As I gasped for breath, the man in leather jacket came over leisurely and said, "Sir, the door will open three days later. Why don't you go back to your room and calm down for now?"
