Chapter 551 forgetting something (2/2)
[”…”]
All was quiet for twenty seconds before Lu Tian finally gave up, and answers her with a short mm.
Hearing him answer her, Yue Ling sighs in more relief. She knows he is partially angry with her but trying to play it cool as always.
”I'm sorry for not calling you when I arrived. You see, one thing led to another and I sort of... forgot.”
[”Mm.]
Her shoulders slouch hearing another mm. She sighs inside and walks over to the corner of the room. She sits down on the furthest of the three chaises that was setup for the spa resort's guests.
”Are you on your lunch break? Did you buy something to eat?”
[”Mm.”]
”…”
Hearing his same answer as the other two, Yue Ling didn't know whether to laugh or cry at this moment. For someone who can be so shameless, Lu Tian can be quite taciturn at times.
When she sees him at home, she will definitely need to make it up. As she doesn't know how long his tantrum will last.
Just as she thought this, a bright idea pops up in her mind. Her eyes slightly narrow and a mischievous smile curls on her lip.
”Tian, I have something to tell you.”
[”Mm.”]
”I love you.”
[”…”]
Her sudden words fell, and the call went silent again. However, it only lasted for a quick seconds before Lu Tian's deep voice sounds from the other line.
[”I love you more.”]
Yue Ling smiles and covers her mouth. She inaudibly giggles in happiness to herself. Her entire being at this moment looked like a high school girl who was talking on the phone with her crush for the first time.
She knows that it wasn't fair for her to do this, but she meant every word. She really does love him.
”My massage was amazing. How was yours?”
”I only purchased the facial package, but I feel a lot younger now.”
As Yue Ling was giggling to herself on the phone with Lu Tian, the door to the spa room opens and two women chats loudly to each other.
Due to her locker being in the far back and she was sitting down, a row of lockers blocked her from view. She could not see who the women were, but her brows slightly furrow. For some reason she found one of the two women's voice very familiar.
However, she shrugs it off and continues to talk on the phone with Lu Tian. Neither voices were Zhao Ya'Er, Madam Lu or Madam Zhao, so she didn't need to pay any attention to the two women.
Outside the spa locker room, Zhao Ya'Er had just finished her massage. Wearing the same white robe as Yue Ling's, she heads for the hot spring the spa is known for.
The plan was to get a facial and body massage then meet up so they can relax and soak in the hot springs together.
As the hot spring is a place not anyone can enter, she was on her way to meet with her spa attendant since she finished her massage early. Turning into a hallway, she was surprise to see the back figure of Zhou Jinglei.
Thinking Yue Ling was with the young woman, she walks over to join them. However, Yue Ling was nowhere in sight.
”Eh, Zhou Jinglei, where is Yue Ling?”
Zhou Jinglei's shoulders jumped in fright at the sudden question. She turns around to see who it was and relief wash inside her.
”Miss Zhao. Miss Han went to the spa locker room. She said she needed to make a quick phone call and will be back, but she hasn't returned.”
