She finished reading the last line before answering the door.
As soon as An Xiaoning opened the door, Jin Qingyan pressed a hand against the back of her head and began kissing her fiercely.
She took a few steps back while he followed her inside.
Every cell of hers was bursting with euphoria. She leaped up, threw her arms around his neck, and wrapped her legs around his waist.
"Why are you here?"
"To see you, of course."
"Close the door," said An Xiaoning, pointing at the door behind him.
He kicked his foot backwards to shut the door.
"Lock it too."
He reached behind him to fumble for the doorknob and locked the door successfully.
"Will this do?"
"Yes."
Jin Qingyan lowered her onto the bed and scanned his surroundings in the room. "It's such a simple room."
"It's good enough. There's a washroom in here too. In another two days, I'll be returning to where I grew up."
