Only when she heard the footsteps behind her did her heart begin to race.
Even though Lu Haoran was her boyfriend, she still hadn't prepared herself emotionally.
"Sorry, Xiaoyanzi, Zelin won't let me go to his place tonight. He said he has to do some 'big sword magic' tonight."
The honest guy was nervous as well and earnestly explained himself, lest his girlfriend misunderstand him and think too impurely.
"Pah, you dog!"
Xiaoyanzi wasn't naive; she knew what 'big sword magic' meant.
"How about this, Xiaoyanzi? You stay here tonight, and I'll go find a nearby motel to stay at later."
Realizing his girlfriend wasn't quite ready, Lu Haoran proactively made a suggestion.
"This is Lujiazui, you know! There aren't any cheap motels nearby!"
Staying in a five-star hotel herself, asking her boyfriend to shell out money for a separate room was something Xiaoyanzi couldn't bring herself to do.
