Back at the hotel...
Qin Shu took the elevator to the guest room with President Ba curled in her arms. Just as she raised her hand to knock on the door, it opened from the inside. Fu Tingyu's form greeted her at the entrance. Had he been standing there waiting for her all this while?
He was wearing the nightgown he wore before she left. His hair was dry.
Startled, Qin Shu failed to react.
Since she got off the plane, she had not had any time to rest. It was just one thing after another. Seeing Xu Qianjin and then going to the police station... Fu Tingyu saw how tired his wife was and felt sorry for her. "I've called room service and asked them to prepare a midnight snack. You should eat something before taking a shower and going to bed."
"I'll go for a shower first." Qin Shu was rather hungry now that she had the time to consider the state of her affairs. She was so hungry she could have sworn her stomach had pressed itself against her spine.
