Qin Zhenzhen went upstairs and knocked directly on Shen Li's bedroom door.
?
No one there?
She knocked again.
Still no response?
She reached out to grasp the doorknob, just about to push the door open when...
"Over here."
A voice came from ahead.
Qin Zhenzhen looked up and saw Shen Li standing in front of the next door.
After returning home, the man had changed into a comfortable set of home clothes, casually standing with one hand in his pocket, while with the other, he crooked a finger at her.
Qin Zhenzhen's heart raced as she made her way over, her voice timid as she explained, "You said to come upstairs to find you, I thought I had to go to your bedroom..."
"I did want to find you," Shen Li picked up the conversation, "but I would never let you into my bedroom."
"Why not?" Qin Zhenzhen asked curiously.
Shen Li looked at her with a complexity hard to describe.
Was this woman naive or just slow on the uptake?
