For a moment, she was beyond crying and laughing.
...
Chu Liangxia had booked a hotel online in advance. She pulled her suitcase and then took her ID card to the front desk to get her room card.
She took care of everything herself.
It was late, and there weren't many people at the front desk. Liangxia checked in in less than a minute and then dragged her suitcase toward the elevator.
She pressed the button and heard footsteps behind her. She stepped aside to wait for the elevator to arrive.
But—
Suddenly she heard a voice, "Girl."
The familiar voice almost scared Liangxia into hitting her head on the wall.
Feigning ignorance, Liangxia did not turn around. Instead, she stood for a while longer before heading toward the stairs with her suitcase.
She had barely taken two steps when a hand grabbed her from behind and yanked her backward.
"I'm saying," Jing Tianchen stood behind her, slightly bent down, and whispered into her ear with his magnetic voice, "why are you running?"
