As Song Qingchun walked into the elevator, before the door even closed, a message alert sounded from her phone. It was from Qin Yinan. 'Song Song, I am sorry, but something came up. I might not be able to go fetch you; can you please go wait for me at the Beijing Hotel? I have made the reservation so just use my name, I will be there at around 1 pm.'
There was no signal in the elevator, so when Song Qingchun got out on the first floor, she replied Qin Yinan an ok emoji. After she left her company, she hailed a taxi to go to the Beijing Hotel.
The traffic was clear, but since Song Qingchun's company was quite far away from the Beijing Hotel, when she arrived, it was already 12.40 pm.
A waiter approached her to ask for her reservation as she entered the lobby. Song Qingchun gave Qin Yinan's name and the waiter took her up to a room on the third floor. After pouring her a glass of tea, the waiter asked in a respectful tone, "Miss, do you wish to order now?"
