Chapter 113

Renee hailed a taxi, and she and Julian got in together, Renee then told the driver where they wanted

to go. Within twenty minutes, they’d arrived at their destination.

“We’re here. Let’s go!” Renee led the man out of the car by his tie

Before them stood dome-shaped houses with bright exteriors. They glowed dimly under the pale

moonlight, making them look like little stars. The atmosphere was rather romantic.

“It’s a big place, and it’s pretty. What do you think?” Renee turned around and looked at Julian proudly.

“This is my secret base, and it’s where I come when I feel stressed. Not many know about this place.”

“Secret base?” Julian looked at the houses, and raised his brows in silent appreciation. ”

Interesting.”

An attendant greeted them warmly when they entered. “Ms. Everheart, will you be using Room No.3 as

usual? We’ve already prepared everything you need.”

“Thank you.” Rence smiled at the attendant. It looked as if she was a frequent customer here.

Room No. 3 was the most secluded room, but it had the best environment. It was also the quietest

room, so nobody would disturb them there.

Renee knew her way to Room No. 3. She entered the passcode and opened the door. “Please come

in, my playmate for the evening.”

Julian was just wondering how love hotels were decorated these days, but when he walked into the

room, he was speechless. “What… What is this place?”

“What do

you

think?”

Renee eagerly walked in, reaching out to touch a top-of-the-line mechanical keyboard. Her eyes were

glowing with excitement. “Millions of gamers have been waiting for this XF keyboard. It has a first-class

feel to it, and is equipped with a third generation optical axis and a high level of sensitivity. This,

coupled with a high-end console and display, would make it impossible for us to lose any game!”

It took Julian five minutes to process what Rence had just said. “So, this isn’t a love hotel, but a …

cyber cafe?”

“Love hotel?” Rence’s eyes widened.

Renee smacked Julian’s head. “You’re young and handsome, but you have such a dirty mind! Of

course, this is a cyber cafe. Many professional gamers train here. Gamers who don’t have a

high status in the esports industry can’t even get in!”

“So, just to clarify… Did you actually mean playing games when you said we’d have fun?”

“What else would it be?” Renee let out a long sigh. “I wanted to ask you guys to form a team with me. I

mean, you’re all so handsome; it would have been nice to look at some eye candy after getting tired

from playing games. I wasn’t expecting your teammates to be such cowards, though. They ran for their

lives when they heard Stefan’s name. What a shame!”

Julian didn’t know whether to laugh or cry. He finally saw for himself how prim and proper Mrs. Hunt

was. He shook his head slightly in amusement.

“Well, you’ve come to the right person.” Julian crossed his fingers eagerly and smiled a little. Aside

from tinkering with electronics, I also love playing games. What do you want to play?”

“Hmm…We don’t have enough people for online games, so let’s play a ivi solo game.”

“Sure. Which one?”

“Contra!” Renee replied eagerly.

Julian nearly choked. “That game came out ages ago! You really like vintage stuff, don’t you?”

“Hah! A classic game never goes out of style.” Renee switched on the hands together. “Less talk, more

action!”

game and rubbed her

Although Julian wasn’t fond of the idea, he still played the

game with her.

He thought Renee was an amateur, but she defeated him several times. After a while, he began to

doubt his abilities. The battle was indeed intense…

Meanwhile, in the president’s office of H Group.

After ending the call with Xavier, Stefan continued working as if nothing happened.

They were divorced, after all. He had nothing to do with his ex-wife’s affairs, and he wouldn’t be

affected by them.

However, the document he was looking at was starting to feel like Morse code. He couldn’t focus

enough to read a single word, and he kept recalling how Xavier said his wife was booking

a hotel room with another man.

“Damn it!”

Stefan closed the document and dialed Renee’s number. After that, something shocking happened…
