Wei Sama, Let's Stuff Them With Dog Food[1]

15. Guess Who's Outclassed By Qi Le An

Glory had prepared Qi Le An and Yan Lang’s outfits in advance, to be accurate, it was Mr. Li who made an impassioned plea for them because normally Glory wouldn’t be bothered to make a budget for trainees’ outfits.

The two outfits Glory prepared for them were both from the most sought-after designer, anyone could tell they were quite pricy by one glimpse. Mr. Li cherished the two outfits like national treasures, he guarded the outfits himself until the morning of the performance day.

Mr. Li handed the outfits to the boys and asked them to get changed after breakfast, Qi Le An decided to keep his eyes peeled, he stored his outfit inside his suitcase and then he locked it. Then he joined Mr. Li for breakfast with Yan Lang.

Yan Lang broke out in a cold sweat by the dining table all of a sudden, his face turned pale, and he moaned in pain. Qi Le An and Mr. Li both got worried, they asked him to go back to the room and take some rest.

Everything looked so real, Qi Le An didn’t suspect a thing and he thought maybe Yan Lang still hadn’t completely recovered from the lemonade ‘incident’ until he realized he couldn’t find his room card.

It turned out Yan Lang had not only taken his own room card, he had also pick up Qi Le An’s room card on the sly. Qi Le An rushed to the elevator as soon as he realized that, leaving Mr. Li calling his name out loud, but Qi Le An didn’t have time to explain anything.

Bang bang, Qi Le An pounded the door heavily, “Yan Lang, Yan Lang, are you there?”

Silence.

But the indicator light on the door was on, it would only be on when there was someone in the room! ‘Yan Lang must be in the room now!’

There were ominous dark clouds gathering overhead, Qi Le An panicked for a second, hopefully Yan Lang couldn’t unlock his suitcase and ruin the outfit. Qi Le An looked around and his eyes suddenly alighted on the CCTV cameras, he took a deep breath and stepped two steps back, with that he slammed his heel against the door.

Thank God it worked.

A few security guards and a cleaning lady emerged from the hall, “Sir! What are you doing?”

Qi Le An replied anxiously, “This is me and my friend’s room, but I think my friend has slipped into a coma, and I’ve left my room key in the room, I’m sorry I have to do that!”

Qi Le An snicked in the heart, this was the most efficient way to open the door without any time being wasted. He was sure he would attract security guards once he started to kick the door.

The security guards looked at Qi Le An suspiciously, then Qi Le An turned to the cleaning lady who he had met briefly the day before, “Ms, it’s me, we’ve met yesterday.”

The cleaning lady looked Qi Le An up and down, “Yes, it’s true, this is the gentleman’s room.”

Qi Le An added promptly, “Please open the door now, my friend might be in danger now!”

The security guards exchanged a look and opened the door with the master card, Qi Le An dashed inside, he heaved a sigh of relief when he saw his suitcase was intact.

The bathroom door was tightly shut though, Qi Le An decided to make the scene more convince in front of the security guards, he pounded on the bathroom door, “Yan Lang! Yan Lang are you all right?”

Silence.

Qi Le An and the security guards exchanged a look, then a guard opened the bathroom door with his hand trembling.

What came to their sight was Yan Lang who was crouching at the corner with his head buried inside his legs, he looked so feeble.

“Sir, sir! Are you all right?”
