Jing Zhannan put on a pair of sungla.s.ses and a cap before following Huo Yijing into the elevator and standing behind her.

Huo Yijing’s head was down, and Jing Zhannan could not make out what kind of face she was making, but he could see from the reflection on the door that her face was pale.

His heart tightened as he saw her in an unusual mood.

Did something happen?

Huo Yijing was completely absorbed into her own thinking and did not notice the man standing behind her.

The elevator stopped on the 16th floor, and Jing Zhannan followed Huo Yijing out after waiting for a few seconds so that she wouldn’t notice him.

Huo Yijing stopped in front of Room 1688 and tightened her grip. She paused for a moment before she raised her hand to knock on the door, but stopped mid-air.

After hesitating for a while, she was about to turn and leave when she noticed a cleaner coming out from another room.

Huo Yijing stopped the cleaner and gave her some cash to knock on the door.

The cleaner rang the doorbell, and before long, the door opened, and a man in a white bathrobe came out.

“I did not order any room service,” the man said.

“My mistake, sorry for disturbing,” the cleaner apologized and left.

The man closed the door but was stopped by a hand.

The man raised his head, and his eyes met the woman’s eyes. They were both stunned and remained silent until another woman in a bathrobe walked towards the man.

“Mr. Lu, who are you talking to?” the woman asked.
