Xiao Qi nodded his head and closed the door. Sitting on the sofa, he irritably ran his fingers through his hair, straining to listen to the sounds from the next room.
However, no matter how hard he listened, the neighboring room remained silent.
Finally, unable to sit still anymore, Xiao Qi got up, opened the door, and stepped over to Chu Beiying's room next door, knocking continuously.
But no matter how hard he knocked, just as the waiter had said, there was no sound from inside.
He wondered worriedly - surely nothing bad had happened?
Unable to ease his worries, he obtained a spare key from the hotel manager.
The moment he opened the door, he noticed something was wrong.
Looking closely, Chu Beiying's face was flushed red, clearly indicating a high fever.
Xiao Qi put his hand on her forehead, only to hastily pull it back as the heat scorched him.
