Chapter 617: Threatening, Intimidating

After a meal and a chat about Y City with He Baiqi and his son, Nan Yan and Qin Lu returned to the hotel.

Zong Jinqi had arranged two standard single rooms for them.

The rooms were opposite each other.

As they stood in the hallway, facing their respective doors, there was a palpable sense of camaraderie between them.

Nan Yan couldn't help but notice Qin Lu's reluctance to part ways. His presence felt comforting, and she found herself enjoying his company more than she had anticipated. With a teasing smile, she quipped, "Big Brother, are you sure you don't want to come in and hang out a bit longer?"

Qin Lu chuckled, his eyes reflecting the warmth of their shared bond. "I'm tempted, but I should probably let you get some rest."

As Nan Yan opened her door and stepped inside, she couldn't shake the feeling of contentment that washed over her. The room was simple yet cozy, offering a welcome respite from the day's activities.
