Wen Nian returned to the hotel and started packing her luggage. With her affairs here squared away, she felt the urgency of heading back. The new year was just two days away and she needed to go home as soon as possible. Otherwise, she would have to deal with her parents' nagging.
Shen Jun reclined on the sofa, a reluctant expression crossing his face. "Are you sure about leaving today?"
Observing Wen Nian's demeanor, he held back the question of inviting her to spend the new year at his place. He knew it wasn't the right time, and there were other complications to consider, especially his mother's presence. Even if Wen Nian did visit, it could lead to further complications.
Wen Nian hadn't packed much, intending to return in just a day or two, so she swiftly sorted her clothes.
"I've made up my mind to head back first. Don't worry; I'll call you at midnight on New Year's Eve." She gently kissed Shen Jun's forehead.
