"So annoying, I have to go back again tomorrow."
Sitting in the corridor, Qing Ying rested her hand on the back of the seat, lying sideways on her elbow, her cheek squished up, making her look dejected.
"The negotiation went so smoothly, you should be happy about it. It would've been an issue if you couldn't go back for a long time." Hong Chuang soothed Qing Ying's irritable mood.
"So," Qing Ying sat up straight upon hearing this, "don't you want to stay a few more days?"
Hong Chuang was momentarily at a loss for words.
"See, you want to spend more time with him too, don't you?"
They were both referring to Jiang Lu without saying it outright.
"Sigh..." They sighed simultaneously.
"Speaking of which, aren't you curious what he's gone off to do? He can leave at such a crucial time, I really want to know what's so important for him to attend to." Qing Ying suddenly said.
