Chapter 980 A Strange Hotel
Sonia blushed and glared at the man. This b*stard is teasing me again!
Dropping her hands, she stopped playing around, fearing that he would say something inappropriate if she was to continue the role-acting.
“I’m not going to continue this.” She snorted before returning him the voucher.
However, Toby only shook his head as he did not retrieve it and asked, “So, do you want to experience this so-called love hotel together with me? After all, this is my first time to ever win something. Will you grant me this honor?”
His words amused Sonia. “Are you really planning to go there?”
“No matter how I look at it, I gotta honor this win. Otherwise, this will all be naught, won’t it?” Toby smiled lightly.
Sonia thought he made sense as well. Besides, she also knew about the existence of this hotel as it was relatively famous with a lot of branches within the borders. Thanks to the various themes, it became popular among couples.
Of course, she heard all of this via rumors and had never seen it for herself before, so this did pique her interest a little.
Noticing the woman’s curiosity, Toby knew that there was still a chance as he said with a glimmer in his eyes, “What I got was the presidential suite as well. If we were to miss out on that, it really would be a waste, seeing how it costs fifteen hundred thousand per night.” He then sighed intentionally.
It was this very sentence that dispelled Sonia’s hesitation as she gripped the voucher and nodded. “Let’s go. Since you finally won something and it’s the grand prize, we should definitely go!”
Even though she was not one who liked to take advantage of any situation, she was not a wasteful person either. After all, it would be such a waste to miss out on such a luxurious suite.
I might feel physical pain if I let this room go! Besides, this was his first time winning something, so I should just let him have the joys of being able to redeem his prize. Or else, this will be all for nothing.
Seeing the woman agree made Toby hide his smile behind his hand.
He only said that because he knew her well enough to know that she was thrifty. As expected, she agreed immediately after the statement.
“It’s getting late now and there’s quite a distance from the hotel. Let’s go!” Toby held Sonia’s hand.
With that, she nodded and let the man lead her to the car. Walking somewhat in a hurry, he had an anxious look that bemused the woman greatly.
After half an hour, they arrived at the hotel.
Alighting from the car, Sonia found herself standing at the entrance of the hotel as she looked up and felt her mouth twitch, not really daring to step inside. Well… This is a love hotel afterall.
The design of the hotel looked very romantic at first glance, for the outline of the building resembled a heart shape with eye-catching pink exterior walls.
If that’s what it looks like on the outside, I can only imagine how crazy it’ll be inside.
All in all, the couple would have to possess a certain amount of bravery; otherwise, they would not dare to even step into the place.
Due to the bizarre exterior of the establishment, it stuck out like a sore thumb when compared to the square buildings nearby.
Sonia thought to herself that if she was hesitating upon seeing the hotel and did not dare to go in, Toby would probably have the same thoughts.
Turning her head slightly, she noticed the man standing beside her looking at the building as well.
The man pursed his lips and had a bit of a sour expression, but more than anything else, a torrent of emotions were swirling inside him.
It was obvious that the place stunned him too as she burst out in laughter.
The chortle finally pulled Toby back to his senses before he looked at her and asked, “What are you laughing at?”
“How is it? You feel like washing your eyes, do you?” Sonia teased happily.
Not replying to her, he merely nodded.
It indeed was a unique piece of architecture for it was not ugly by any means, but it was very girly.
However, it was the very fact that it was accentuated by all the commercial buildings nearby that made the hotel on its own seem awkward.
As such, Toby rubbed his temples. He had never expected that it would look like this.
I regret not doing my research before going anywhere with a woman I like. Yes, this has to be the last time we’re in such an awkward situation like this.
Noticing that the man stopped talking, Sonia nodded and laughed even louder. “What now? Should we head home? Or do you want to go in?”
After a few seconds of silence, Toby squeezed out, “In we go!”
This surprised her. “We are?”
“Yup.” He nodded.
We’re already here. If we leave just like that, doesn’t that mean that we got cold feet? This is not my style. If word got out that I don’t even have the guts to enter a love hotel, I would become the butt of everyone’s joke.
But, how could Sonia not know what the man was thinking inside? She looked at him before turning her gaze at the building once again and smirked.
She thought that he would never enter anything so ugly. After all, his style was completely opposite to this hotel. Besides, she could not imagine how wild the interior was going to be.
Even if he were to get cold feet now, she would not tease him about it since she wanted to leave as equally as he did.
To her surprise, she was completely wrong about him!
“We’re really going in?” Sonia suppressed her shock and took a deep breath in, looking at the man for confirmation.
A solemn expression accompanied Toby before he nodded. “Of course. Since we’re already here, why not just go in? Let’s go. We have to face this.” He then held her hand and went into the hotel.
Looking at him, Sonia was greatly entertained.
If he was not so stiff with such a heavy expression, she would have bought the fact that he was nonchalantly accepting this. Yet, that was the exact reality and it ironically seemed like he was bringing her into war, not into a romantic, tacky, love hotel.
All in all, his temperament now was hilarious.
At the sight of this, Sonia could not help but giggle.
Seriously, even though he detests how it looks, why is he still forcing himself to go in? There’s no way a rich man like him would be reluctant to let one night of tacky hotelstay go to waste. I don’t think so.
This man just wants to experience something new and exciting with me in the hotel.
Other than that, she had searched up the information regarding the hotel online in the car and it stated that it was a paradise for couples. According to the reviews, every couple that came here would be catalyzed by the atmosphere and get all steamy real quick; it was precisely this that piqued her interest.
She was curious as to what kind of sorcery the hotel possessed to have all the guests leave good reviews.
Just as Sonia was thinking about this, Toby had already collected the room key from the front desk.
When she snapped back to reality, he was seen refusing the receptionist’s guide and dragged her to the elevator himself.
Ding! The elevator door opened.
After the couple went in, Sonia could clearly hear Toby heaving a sigh of relief.
Turning around, she saw the man had finally relaxed his facial muscles and she asked, “Do you have to be so dramatic? Look at you all nervous.”
He then shot a glance at her. “It’s my first time at a place like this.”
“Like it’s not mine as well,” she replied.
Falling silent for a few seconds, Toby continued, “It was me who exchanged the voucher at the front desk, so it was me who got more unwanted flirtatious looks.”
Speechless, Sonia could not retort his words as it was the truth.
