Yan Shixiu told Shi Lan to wait at the hotel, but the young lady couldn't wait even a second. After washing up in her room, around ten at night, she left the hotel with Sun Ling.
The two met midway and went directly to the Lover Street that Yan Shixiu had taken Shi Lan to last time. As for Sun Ling and Yan Shixiu's assistant, given the scorching weather and their reluctance to play gooseberry, they stayed in the car with the air conditioning on, scrolling through their phones.
The air was still filled with heat waves, even the breeze coming their way was laced with humidity and stuffiness.
"Anxious to see me, got something to say?"
Hand in hand, they walked along the street; luckily, it was late at night, and there were hardly any pedestrians around, so Shi Lan didn't have to keep her hat pulled down low.
The young lady's eyes fell on their tightly clasped hands. There were a thousand emotions within her, yet now, she couldn't utter a single word.
