Chapter 74 - SNUGGLED INTO A COMFORTABLE POSITION (1/2)

Yun Jinghan lifted his eyes from documents he was perusing and checked the time. Luo Jingyi sent a message this morning saying she wanted to give her a decision when the conference ended. At the same time,  begged not to let K5 shadow her. He was reluctant about the other request but he agreed.

Estimating that Luo Jingyi would be free by now, he reached for his phone on the desk and called her but it went unanswered. Giving up, he went back to work but after an hour later, hearing no words from her, he began fidgeting.

”Where could she be?”

Yun Jinghan walked to the stairs leading to the second floor and left his hotel room. He went to see her. He had mixed feelings about it.

He buzzed many times but the door never opened. He called the hotel manager to bring him another keycard.

When the manager appeared, Yun Jinghan took the white card from him and ran it against the sensor. Pushing the door open, silence greeted him.  Yun Jinghan strode to the bedroom but the room was empty. There was no sign of her.

”Where did she go?” he wondered. As he was getting out in search of her, he found a woman standing outside.

”Is this Dr. Luo's suite?” She asked, giving him a once over.

Yun Jinghan nodded. His eyes fell to the bag that the woman held. It was Luo Jingyi's.

Seeing this, the woman explained. ”Dr. Luo forgot her bag when she left.”

Yun Jinghan gestured to the woman to pass the bag but she was a bit hesitant.

”I'm her fiancé.” Yun Jinghan informed her.

”Oh!” She muttered and handed it to him.

Yun Jinghan thanked her and returned to the suite.  He immediately called K5. His heart was restless.

….

Throwing her heels, Luo Jingyi puttered barefoot on the sand. She felt dizzy so she plonked on the ground, setting aside what she had in both hands.  Looking far beyond, there was a myriad of emotions in her eyes. There was sadness, disgust, fear, and anger.

She was mad about meeting Madam Wen. Meeting Madam Wen reminded her of the past. No matter how much she wanted to forget, her disgust towards the royal family never faded in her heart. It also caused her fears to appear.

Struggling with her emotions, she stood on her feet and tossed her cardigan aside. She walked forward.
