Hongqi woke up slightly later than usual this morning. He may have slept longer than his usual four hours but it was still not enough. Add that it must be because he was so exhausted from overthinking and was slightly hangover too. He noticed that his wife was not in bed anymore which is odd since she's always late to wake up.
He quickly got up and went to the bathroom to take a shower. Once he's done, he changed to a red suit and went out to check where his wife. He noticed that her bag was still inside the room so he guessed that she was still here.
"Do I really have to meet your mother? You know I'm afraid to meet her right now especially you spilled a lot of secrets recently."
That was the first thing Hongqi heard when he was near the mini office inside this suite. This is Xiulan's mini office in case she wants to work from home. He didn't come inside and only continued to eavesdrop the conversation.
