When Jing Yiren returned to the inn, the first floor was still bustling with a wine banquet.
Back in the empty suite, Lu Ming was not yet home.
Jing Yiren took out her phone and made a call to Lu Ming.
Lu Ming said he would be back later and asked her to go to bed first.
Jing Yiren undressed and sat down by the bed, pulled the bed curtains, and lay quietly on the bed.
The ceiling let in a dim, yellow light.
Jing Yiren's dull gaze fixed on the canopy of the bed.
On the white silk gauze was embroidered a pair of mandarin ducks playing in the water.
Jing Yiren inexplicably thought of that year.
She played hide and seek playfully with Little Prince Jin.
She always lost to Little Prince Jin, always found in no time.
Feeling indignant that day, she bet with Little Prince Jin that he would definitely not find her this time.
Little Prince Jin agreed.
