Chapter 86: Love but Can't Have

Cheng Qiaobei felt that what seemed like a stressful meeting dinner ended in laughter and amicability between the two women.

Even at the end, Ding Yuan seemed reluctant to part, pulling Chen Ningxi in for exchanging WeChat and insisting she visit often.

After bidding farewell to Ding Yuan, Cheng Qiaobei drove back to the hotel. The two planned to rest for a night before returning to Danjiang the next day.

The hotel corridor was quiet at night, with only the shadows of the two of them.

Chen Ningxi swiped her key card to open the door, sensing that the person behind her hadn't moved. She turned back to see Cheng Qiaobei standing there.

Was he planning to sleep in the same room as her?

If he dared to try, she'd slap him.

Both spoke almost simultaneously.

Chen Ningxi, "You..."

Cheng Qiaobei, "Thank you."
