Li Shi originally thought they were just neighbours from the twelfth floor. When they reached the twelfth floor and he saw the man and woman turn right, he was taken aback.
The house on the right belonged to Chen Qiu Ye.
He followed them out with the takeout food in his hands and saw the woman about to press the doorbell to Chen Qiu Ye's house.
"Who are you looking for?"
Li Shi remembered the mess inside the house that he hadn't had time to clean up. There might even be residue smells left from the evening. If the visitors rang the doorbell and Chen Qiu Ye heard it and thought it was him, it didn't seem appropriate. So he quickly asked.
At the sound of his voice, the duo turned. The man remained expressionless, a picture of undisturbed calm as usual, while the woman answered, "We are looking for Chen Qiu Ye. Do you know her?"
Li Shi nodded and said, "I'm her friend. She's not home right now. You can call her if you have any business, or come back next time."
