章 532: Combining Forces

Back at the hotel, Li Du brazenly asked if the two of them could stay together.

Sophie said resolutely, "We can only stay together after we are married. According to 1 Corinthians 7:2, 'To avoid fornication, let every man have his own wife, and let every woman have her own husband.'"

Feeling a little exasperated, Li Du said, "But because of the carnival, the hotels here are all full. If we don't stay together, where will you stay?"

Sophie went to the counter to inquire. Li Du was right, the hotel was indeed full; there was a queue of people wanting to book rooms.

The lady doctor's spirits were dampened. "I booked a room but it's only available in two days—my booking can't be brought forward."

She looked flustered and started pacing about in the hotel lobby as she nibbled on one of her nails with her pearly white teeth.
