Having been given a second chance at life, who would still want to pursue her?

Chen Jianji paused, then sat half-upright on the bed and slowly looked over.

Lin Qingxue raised her phone towards him.

The cool moonlight shone on the purple phone, giving it a slightly mottled metallic sheen.

Chen Jianji shifted his gaze to Lin Qingxue's cheek.

There seemed to be a hint of expectation in her eyes.

She wants to check her phone herself?

Chen Jianji frowned.

The current Lin Qingxue is very good at lying.

Do you want him to admit that he still cares about her?

impossible.

"Our relationship is not suitable."

Chan Kin-kei slowly lifted the blanket, got up, put on his shoes, and walked away, adding something before he did so.

I'm not interested in whose text messages or phone calls you make.

The words fell.

He had already reached the door.

The door opened.

Light streamed into the hallway.

The light reflected on the bed.

I could clearly see the blush on Lin Qingxue's cheeks.

Her hand was still holding the phone.

The rapid beating of my own heart could be heard in my ears, and that...

The sound of the door closing with a "click".

The room was immediately plunged into darkness and silence.

Lin Qingxue slowly put down her phone.

His fingers kept stroking the metal body.

......

The linen room.

Chen Jianji expressionlessly selected three quilts.

The two mattresses on the floor provided sufficient insulation against the cold floor.

One blanket is enough.

After piling the bedding together, Chen Jianji took a deep look at it.

Don't be soft-hearted.

"Don't repeat the same mistakes."

He murmured softly, reminding himself again.

He stood there for a long time.

Finally, he picked up three quilts and walked out of the linen room.

Just as I was about to reach the room door.

Chen Jianji turned sideways, about to take out the room key from his pocket to open the door.

But just then...

He heard some faint sounds coming from inside the room.

This hotel is basic, and the soundproofing isn't very good.

Chen Jianji frowned and pressed his ear close to the door panel.

Intermittent sounds could be heard coming from inside.

"I might not get back until the afternoon or evening tomorrow, it's uncertain."

"Are you in a hurry? Can't you wait a bit? I don't have a bank ATM here, I only have cash."

The sound was somewhat noisy.

Lin Qingxue seemed to be arguing with someone; her voice came from near and then faded away.

She was pacing back and forth.

Chen Jianji frowned even more deeply.

Lin Qingxue rarely had moments like this.

She is always calm and decisive.

In my previous life.

I only become so indecisive about extremely important matters.

Oh, wait, that's not right.

I almost forgot.

There's also someone surnamed Li.

suddenly.

Lin Qingxue's voice came from inside again.

This time, however, things took an unexpected turn.

"Will the construction site you're going to pass through Qingyang?"

Her voice was no longer anxious; it had softened considerably.

"I happen to be here. Why don't you stop over in Qingyang? You need to rest anyway. My coach has booked a room that you can use."

"The room key is under the carpet in room 501. I'll send you the exact address later."

"Okay, no problem. I'll give you the money when we get there. Okay."

...

The sound gradually faded and became difficult to hear.

But Chen Jianji's face had darkened.

He knows without me having to guess.

It was Li Wenyan who asked Lin Qingxue for money.

So all the money she had on her.

It is indeed all used up.

Even the remaining daily expenses now have to be given away.

Without further hesitation, Chen Jianji took out his room key.

beep!

He pushed the door open.

I saw Lin Qingxue turn around in a daze after hanging up the phone.

Chen Jianji carried the quilt inside.

As soon as he entered the room, he threw the blanket down.

He stepped forward and grabbed Lin Qingxue's hand.

Go back to your own room!

Lin Qingxue's wrist ached from his grip, but she endured the pain.

"The room can't be opened."

Chen Jianji ignored her and dragged her to the door.

"Bullshit! I heard it all, on the carpet!"

"Do you really think I'm a fool?!"

Lin Qingxue was pulled to the door and froze.

Did he hear that?

She leaned against the door frame, her eyes lowered, and pushed it open.

Bang!

She suddenly closed the door.

Chan Kin-kei became even angrier and was about to step forward when...

Lin Qingxue turned around and leaned against the door.

"That room is occupied by someone else. Do you want me to go and spend the night with them?"

Chen Jianji stopped and gave a cold laugh.

"For example? Isn't it your nice neighbor?"

Lin Qingxue shook her head.

"No, he's still at home."

These words were spoken.

Chen Jianji was stunned for a moment.

"Who was that? Who were you just talking to on the phone?"

"Someone I met online."

"You even do online dating?"

Lin Qingxue could no longer maintain her composure and laughed in anger.

"No!"

Looking at her expression, Chen Jianji suddenly asked.

"Male or female?"

Lin Qingxue responded quickly.

"Male."

"Isn't that online dating?"

Lin Qingxue remained silent, veins bulging on her forehead, not wanting to argue about this topic anymore.

She took several deep breaths.

Finally, he slowly raised his head, his eyes filled with inexplicable emotions.

"So, are you going to push me there? There might be other guys there at night."

Chen Jianji stood still, looked at her deeply, and then spoke.

"cell phone."

Lin Qingxue paused, but quickly realized what was happening.

He almost immediately took out his phone and opened it.

The call logs are also displayed above.

Chen Jianji glanced at it.

It's not Li Wenyan's.

It was an unfamiliar number.

"information."

He didn't reach out, but spoke again.

Lin Qingxue paused and asked.

"Whose do you want to see?"

"Li Wenyan!"

"oh."

Lin Qingxue did as instructed and opened Li Wenyan's text message.

Uncle Lin is in pretty good spirits today, probably because your banners are hanging all over the village. Auntie is also in a good mood and seems to be doing well.

I have some money on me now, and I've been looking at travel guides for the surrounding area online all night. Tomorrow is the last day of my holiday, and I'd like to go for a trip nearby. You should come back to visit your aunt and uncle soon; they're always talking about you.

She held up her phone, but her eyes kept glancing at Chen Jianji.

The man watched intently, his expression softening considerably, and the almost murderous glint in his eyes vanished.

"What did you reply when you slid down?"

Lin Qingxue didn't move, but pointed to the bed with her other hand.

"Let me sleep in the bed, and I'll show you."

Chen Jianji gave a cold laugh.

"This is my room. You want me to sleep on the floor?"

Lin Qingxue shook her head and said softly.

"We can sleep in the same bed."
