“Are you home?”

“I’m still working. There have been a lot of things going on in the company recently,” Qi Shenbai said.

“Have you been very busy recently? No matter how busy you are, don’t forget to eat.”

“I’ll go eat in a bit.” Qi Shenbai paused and changed the topic. “I heard from Gang Xing that the conditions there are not good. Is the hotel alright?”

Xu Jiaojiao hesitated for a few seconds before saying, “I… I’m not staying in a hotel. Strictly speaking, it’s a small inn. The conditions are average, but it’s just for a few days. It’s not a big deal.”

On the other end of the line, Qi Shenbai was deep in thought. “So you’re staying alone at night?”

“Yes, there happened to be an empty room. I got it by drawing lots. Fortunately, I got my own room. Otherwise, 1 wouldn’t be used to having an extra person around at night.” Xu Jiaojiao was a little happy.

On the other end of the phone, Qi Shenbai imagined Xu Jiaojiao’s happy expression and smiled. “It seems like you have to get used to it soon.”

“What do you mean?”

Xu Jiaojiao was stunned. Before she could regain her senses, Qi Shenbai continued, “If you need another hotel, you can tell me. I’ll get someone to take care of it.”

“It’s fine, it’s just for three days,” Xu Jiaojiao refused. Qi Shenbai was currently busy with work, so she did not want to trouble him. After all, he was not in the town with her.

“But 1 don’t want you to stay there,” Qi Shenbai said. He did not want Xu Jiaojiao to suffer outside.

Xu Jiaojiao was in a daze for a moment, and her ears were a little hot. Why did she feel that their identities had reversed? Qi Shenbai seemed to wooing her.

Was she imagining things?

“What are you thinking about?” Qi Shenbai’s voice spoke again, seemingly with a hint of a smile.

Xu Jiaojiao came back to her senses. It turned out that she had been silent for too long.

“I missed you,” Xu Jiaojiao said out of nowhere, but she did not think it was a bad thing.

“Uh… You don’t have to change my hotel. I’ll be back soon,” Xu Jiaojiao quickly changed the topic.

Qi Shenbai’s chuckle came from the other end of the phone. It was very soft, but Xu Jiaojiao caught it.

‘Is he laughing at me?*

Xu Jiaojiao felt her ears turn even redder.

“Alright, then make a video call. I’ll see how your living environment is,” Qi Shenbai said.

Xu Jiaojiao nodded and hung up the phone. Then, she clicked on the app again and started a video call.

Qi Shenbai picked up the call very quickly. He was sitting in the office with several stacks of documents in front of him. The phone seemed to be fixed on a shelf, and his face could be seen clearly.

He had a slight smile on his face, but it was hard to hide his tiredness. He had definitely been busy with work lately.

“Didn’t you turn on the lights?” Qi Shenbai frowned slightly.

Xu Jiaojiao looked around. The incandescent lamp in the room was old and emitted a weak yellow light. True enough, she could not see her surroundings too clearly.

“It’s on, but the lights aren’t very bright. Wait for me.” Xu Jiaojiao went to turn on the few lights in the room. In an instant, the room lit up a lot. At least, it was much better than before.

“Can you see me clearly now?” Xu Jiaojiao asked.

“That’s good enough.” Qi Shenbai nodded. Xu Jiaojiao switched to the rear camera and took out her phone to take a few photos.

The environment was not great, but it was not that bad either.

Xu Jiaojiao turned the camera around and waved at the screen. “Can you see everything clearly?”

After taking a good look at Xu Jiaojiao’s little face, Qi Shenbai nodded. “Yeah.”

“The room is a little small, but fortunately, I’m staying on my own. It doesn’t feel bad. At least there’s no problem with the Internet,” Xu Jiaojiao said.

Qi Shenbai looked at the bleak and shabby room behind Xu Jiaojiao. There was only a table and chair. The white walls were damp and a lot of the plaster had fallen off. His heart ached a little.

Xu Jiaojiao saw that Qi Shenbai had not spoken for a long time and was a little puzzled. “What are you thinking about? You should go eat first. It’s already so late and you haven’t eaten yet. Your body can’t take it.”

“Alright.” Qi Shenbai nodded. “But don’t hang up the video call yet.”

“Why not?”

“I’m worried about you being alone over there. I’ll only feel more at ease if I watch you all the time.”

Xu Jiaojiao’s heart warmed. “Alright, I’ll go take a shower first. Remember to eat.”

Qi Shenbai nodded, and Xu Jiaojiao got up and went to the bathroom.

Soon, the sound of running water could be heard. The conditions in the bathroom were not good, so Xu Jiaojiao quickly ended the bath. She wrapped herself in a bathrobe and quickly walked out of the bathroom.

She had forgotten to take her pajamas, so she could only make do with her bathrobe.

Xu Jiaojiao felt a little hot and looked at the air conditioner. Although the air conditioner was running, it did not have much effect.

Xu Jiaojiao did not pay any more attention to this and quickly took out her pajamas from her luggage. She quickly put them on and lay comfortably on the bed.

Suddenly, Xu Jiaojiao’s eyes widened. She seemed to have forgotten something…

“The video is still on!” Xu Jiaojiao’s mind went blank. She looked at her phone and saw Qi Shenbai looking at the camera, making eye contact with her.

“Ah!” Xu Jiaojiao screamed and hung up the video call guiltily..
