The actor suppressed a smile and tried to look unfazed. "You bought this villa," he said, feigning calm.
Gong Jie snorted at that. "The real estate consultant didn't mention this backyard where people could lose their way."
He'd thought he'd hit a wall. He was walking in circles. If the actor hadn't turned on the lights, he would have spent the entire night fumbling around.
Hua Jin sighed. "Why are you home so late?"
"It takes more than 10 hours to fly from the Hurricane Group, and it involves a transfer to a helicopter."
"Why?"
"My plane can't land here. I didn't manage to get landing rights." Then Gong Jie asked, "Where's Natalia? Is she asleep?"
"Yeah, she's asleep. It's late. She went to sleep long ago."
"Oh." Gong Jie said, "I'll go upstairs and take a look."
"Okay. Are you able to find your way to her room?"
