In the softly lit room, a sense of anticipation hung in the air as Qin Yan bustled about, carefully selecting items to pack for the upcoming business trip. The city lights outside painted a mesmerizing tapestry against the evening sky, casting a warm glow that bathed the room in a gentle ambiance.
Qin Yan's attention was focused, her brows slightly furrowed in concentration, as she moved with purpose between her wardrobe and the open suitcase on her bed. Her fingers delicately traced the edges of her passport, a ticket to new possibilities, as a small smile tugged at the corners of her lips.
As Qin Yan finally zipped the suitcase closed, a sense of accomplishment washed over her. She turned to Xi Ting, a mixture of excitement and contentment dancing in her eyes. They exchanged a meaningful glance, a silent affirmation of their partnership and the journey they were about to embark upon together.
The next day.
