The receptionist had a troubled look on her face . "I am sorry sir but this is against the protocol of the resort and it is not in my power to break it . " But she was not a fool to not know the weight of the situation in which Wu Zhang was involved so she immediately added . "But I will call our manager for you and you can talk to him . "
Peng Hai pressed his lips together in annoyance and then said in an irritated tone, "Well then make it quick . "
When the manager heard that people from both Song International Corporations and Wu Corporations had come, he came to the reception as soon as he could . He politely greeted Peng Hai and Song Chen before extending his hand to shake it with them . "Mr . Peng, how may I help you?"

In a haughty tone Peng Hai explained the entire situation to the manager who then turned to the receptionist . "Are you a fool to make him wait? Do as he says, be quick!" He then gave an apologetic smile to Peng Hai to prevent the situation from getting awkward .
The receptionist immediately bowed to apologize and then turned her computer on to look for Yue Ling . After searching through the detail, with a confused look she said, "Sir, I apologize but we have no one with the name Yue Ling here . "
Peng Hai looked confused but before he could say anything else the words of the receptionist had caught Song Chen's interest too . He immediately turned to Song Jia and his face was beaming with excitement and happiness that was difficult to hide . Standing at the same spot, but with a voice loud enough that was audible clearly, he said, "Didn't I tell you that your source of information is wrong . There is no Yue Ling here!"
Song Jia heard every word clearly and immediately got up from the couch to reach the reception desk . In her hand was the leather folder that Wu Zhang had given her . She flipped it open and looked through it as if searching for something . After turning a few pages she said, "Look for booking made in the name of Yang Deming and with him is a woman named Lily . "
The receptionist nodded her head and her fingers danced on the keyboard again . After a short moment, she lifted her head and spoke, "Yes Miss Song, there indeed is a booking with this name . These two people checked in here yesterday and are currently staying at our villa no . 05 . "
Song Jia gave a meaningful look to Song Chen who had lost the color on his face again . "Who . . . who is Lily?" He asked feeling unsure . He didn't know because he had not seen everything in the file but his expression gave it that he had a notion of this Lily being Yue Ling .
"The look on your face tells that you have already guessed the answer . " Her voice had somehow become very quiet and calm now . The anxiety she was having previously had somehow calmed now . Very calmly she turned to the receptionist again . "Give us a key to the villa . "
The receptionist bent down to pull the key card from the drawer and extended her hand . Peng Hai stepped forward and took the key card .
"Let me show you the way . " The manager offered and everyone followed him .
However, Song Jia stopped after she had taken just one step . She turned back and looked at the receptionist . "I don't want anyone to know about our presence . The people in the room must also not be made aware of us going there . Do you understand?"
The receptionist nodded immediately . "I do Miss . "
"Miss Song, don't worry . My subordinate will keep a watch here . " Peng Hai said pointing to a man who had just entered the reception .
"Let's go then . " Song Jia said cocking her neck in Song Chen's direction .
