I stood outside Lu Jia's room, smoked a cigarette, and gradually calmed myself down before knocking on her door...
Surprisingly, I did not receive a response.
I called out again, "Lu Jia... are you back?"
Still no response...
I couldn't help but wonder, she said she'd be back after sitting for a while, but Peach and I had already chatted for a long time and wandered around the ancient city for an hour. Logically, she should have been back before me.
I was about to knock on the door again when the cleaning lady who was cleaning my room stopped me. She said to me, "Boss, I've already cleaned all the rooms that were requested to be cleaned tonight. I'll head back now."
"Thank you for your hard work, Auntie."
The aunt smiled, then took a key out of her pocket and said to me, "The guest in this room has checked out, and she asked me to give you the key."
I was skeptical, so I pointed to Lu Jia's door and asked, "This one?"
"That's right... this is the one."
"She...she just checked in this afternoon, how could she be checking out?...Did she say anything to you?"
"She didn't say anything... Oh, right... she didn't look well, like she'd been crying!"
I stood there, speechless.
"Boss, if there's nothing else, I'll be going now."
I suddenly realized what was happening and quickly nodded, saying, "Okay, okay... you go ahead and get busy."

I swallowed hard, then took my phone out of my pocket. I found the transfer record of 8,400 yuan that Lu Jia had given me before, and my heart felt like it had been turned upside down... She wasn't Ye Zhi, and this amount of money was already a huge expense for her... She just left like that, and I felt like I owed her a huge debt in addition to my youth.
Right now, I'm so confused... I know that as long as she hasn't gone far, and as long as I'm willing to go after her, we can still be together like before, but...
...
My heavy thoughts made my breathing heavier and heavier. Just then, I received a WeChat message from Ye Zhi. She asked me very seriously, "Michael, if we are together, will it be for a lifetime?"
