Wang Dahai had rented a hotel room by the hour nearby.
Upon entering the room, Wang Dahai reached out to embrace her, but she dodged away.
Lu Wen brushed the stray hairs from her forehead behind her ear and said, "Go take a shower."
"Huh?" Wang Dahai was puzzled, "Take a shower for what?"
Lu Wen glanced awkwardly elsewhere and pushed him, "Hurry up and go."
Wang Dahai still didn't understand, after all, he meant to reward her, so why should he take a shower?
He couldn't be bothered to ask and quickly washed up in the bathroom before stepping out wrapped in a towel.
He came out, and then Lu Wen went in.
After a short while, Lu Wen too emerged wrapped in a towel.
She sat on the bed, timidly saying, "Turn off the light."
Wang Dahai went to turn off the light and the room instantly fell dark, which made him think of Ning Mei.
Today was Saturday, and Ning Mei hadn't sent him a message.
Probably, Hu Quan was at home, or else she was tied up with something else.
