He thought it was true, and he actually did it.
Even though it was nighttime, and even though he didn't need to patrol all the time, he still kept himself busy doing all sorts of things, trying to keep himself too busy to think about anything else.
But he ultimately failed. Whenever he had a moment of free time, he would think of Zhu Qinghao, and several times he would unconsciously walk near their private room, only to turn back in frustration.
Those who worked with him noticed something was wrong with him and asked him questions, but they couldn't get any answers. However, Lu Zheng himself was unwilling to talk about it, so no one could find out.
The only person on this train who truly understands him is probably Sheng Yi.
But Sheng Yi was sleeping in the private room where Zhu Qinghao was, and had no time to care about the disappointed people outside.
On two separate occasions, Lu Zheng walked to the door of the private room, and he noticed him, but he didn't even get out of bed, let alone do anything else.
If Sheng Yi's initial reaction to Zhu Qinghao admitting their relationship to Lu Zheng was mostly happiness mixed with a touch of schadenfreude.
When he first sensed Lu Zheng appearing at the door and then leaving in a hurry, his feelings had already turned into sighs.
In his heart, Zhu Qinghao was an exceptionally good girl, so it was perfectly normal for anyone to fall for her.
He himself simply had the advantage of being the first to act, taking advantage of the longer time they had spent together.
But if he were the one who arrived a step too late today, how would he feel?
Compared to Lu Zheng outside, he's probably not much better off.
Thinking of this, Sheng Yi also sighed.
However, precisely because of this, he became even more determined to cherish Zhu Qinghao, not to disappoint her, and not to give anyone the slightest opportunity to take advantage of him.
As for the person outside the door, he'll have to figure it out himself.
Zhu Qinghao, who was fast asleep, knew nothing about anything. When she opened her eyes, it was already the next morning.
Sheng Yi goes to bed late but gets up early. As soon as Zhu Qinghao woke up, he heard her make the slightest noise.
"Are you alright? Are you awake?"
Zhu Qinghao hadn't fully gotten up yet, still feeling a bit drowsy from just waking up, and responded with a sound of acknowledgment.
"Yes, I'm awake."
Upon hearing this, Sheng Yi's heart softened completely, and he unconsciously softened his voice.
"Shall we get up and wash up? I was worried there would be a lot of people over there and we'd have to wait in line, so I brought you a basin of water."
"It's still warm from the call. Go downstairs and wash up. I'll go buy breakfast first. Is there anything you'd like to eat?"
Zhu Qinghao really didn't expect him to go to such lengths, especially since his left hand was still injured. She immediately felt a warm current flowing into her heart.
Then, she quickly got up, completely forgetting about her image.
"Okay! Breakfast is fine with me, I'm not picky, you can buy whatever you want."
As she talked, she climbed down. Sheng Yi looked at her fluffy hair as she slept, and it was so cute that he almost couldn't resist touching it.
But then he remembered that Zhu Qinghao always paid attention to her image, so he didn't say or do anything more, just agreed and left, leaving her the space to wash up and get ready.
"Okay, I'll go buy breakfast first. You stay here and don't wander around. I'll empty the dirty water when I get back."
Zhu Qinghao readily agreed, but had no intention of doing so.
Now that there are more people moving around in the carriage, it could be troublesome if someone bumps into Sheng Yi's injured hand.
She didn't want to cause herself any trouble; she just sped up her washing up and poured all the water and other things into her space before Sheng Yi returned.
However, she didn't know whether she underestimated her own speed or overestimated Sheng Yi's speed, because she had finished cleaning up for a long time and the person who bought breakfast still hadn't returned.
