Belated Romance (Mu Tongrui)

Jiahe wanted to take the bus to the Halves Hotel, but she was afraid that it would take too long and the dumplings would turn cold. So, she decided to hail a taxi to the hotel.

When she was standing in front of the room where Xinghe was staying, she braced herself for a whole minute by adjusting her breathing. Then, she finally had the courage to knock on the door.

Back when she was with Chi Jun, she was never this shy. She was astounded by her own embarrassment.

It was just a relationship. It was normal to be in a relationship at this age.

When Xinghe opened the door, his hair was still wet. It was clear that he had just taken his bath.

“Morning.”

When the door flung open, Jiahe’s expression was a little awkward as she greeted him.

It was not her best greeting, for sure.

Xinghe was holding a white towel and he was casually drying his hair with it. As he walked back into the room, he asked, “What time did you sleep last night?”

He stole a glance at the clock. It was only nine-thirty.

She slept quite late last night, yet she did not have a hard time waking up. Could this mean that she was too excited about meeting him in the past few days?

Jiahe began to stutter, “I slept quite early, right after replying to your text messages. I—I… I was woken up by the sounds of the firecrackers outside the house this morning.”

She sounded not confident at all, and she did not dare to meet his eyes.

In fact, she was only able to let sleep overcome her at four in the morning because her adrenaline was pumping throughout her blood. When her alarm rang at six, she shot right back up to check her phone to see if he had sent any other text messages.

When she was putting on her makeup this morning, she even specially covered her eyebags with some foundation.

Normally, she would oversleep and nothing in the world could wake her up. She had no eyebags hanging underneath her eyes normally.

It was Xinghe who caused her to lose sleep. Despite knowing that, he decided not to expose her lies.

Jiahe produced a lunch box from her bag, “You haven’t had your breakfast, have you? My mum has cooked more than enough dumplings this morning, and I was able to pick up some before she threatened to throw the leftovers away. There is meat and some vegetables in the contents, and they are quite fresh. I guarantee that it can compare to the breakfast you used to eat in seven-star hotels.”
