It was very late at night and the stars were no longer visible.

When Tingqiao walked out of the bathroom, it was raining heavily outside and the night was becoming dark.

She took out a bottle of pomegranate juice from a small freezer specifically for drinks and poured half of it into a transparent glass. Although this step was a bit redundant, it looked more delicious. She walked to the bay window with the pomegranate juice, placed the pomegranate juice on the small table, put the pillow in place, and sat on the bay window.

The bird that had followed her back had already left, and she was the only one left in the room.

This time, Youniao came back with Tingqiao not only to show her the local specialties he brought back, but also to bring her a piece of news. Some reckless vampires were looking for the corpse of the lich who had fought with her.

Tingqiao's first reaction was naturally confusion. She had shown no mercy when she attacked him. She had already torn the corpse into pieces, leaving no life at all. How could she have a chance to regenerate now? Or was it for some other purpose? But how did the vampires get the news?

Youniao also said that he interrogated the vampires at that time, but he didn't get anything out of them. They themselves couldn't explain the reason, and they just searched around for the body of the lich in a daze.

Therefore, there must be someone behind this.

In this way, listening to the bridge is really interesting.

However, this little interest is not enough for her to give up her current career, as she hasn't even started filming a movie yet.

You Niao volunteered to check it out. Anyway, all the main roles in her current drama had been divided up. If this matter was handled well, she might be able to be cast as the lead in her next drama.

Perhaps, this can also be considered an alternative way of bribing the director.

After Tingqiao nodded in agreement that he should investigate the matter, Youniao left directly through the window. For some reason, he thought it was faster to go through the window than through the front door.

Tingqiao was in a good mood after taking a bath, especially after drinking a sip of icy red pomegranate juice. He felt more and more that he woke up at the right time. It was not so comfortable and convenient in the past.

There was a tablet on the small table, so she randomly clicked on a movie that was on the good reviews list. She was still studying, so she needed to watch more movies and also find inspiration from them.

With the soundtrack of this movie, the room is not so quiet anymore.

At this moment, the mobile phone that was charging on the bedside table suddenly rang. Someone was calling.

Tingqiao walked over and took a look, and the caller shown on the phone was Lan Qi.

And... there were several missed calls.

Well, I was taking a bath before and didn’t pay attention at all.

Is there anything urgent?

Tingqiao slid to the answer button, waiting for Lanqi to speak, but he didn't expect that there was silence on the other end of the phone for half a minute.

Tingqiao was puzzled, "Why don't you speak?"

I clearly made several phone calls!

Lan Qi: "...I, I have something I want to talk to you about in person. Is it convenient for you now?"

The sound sounded like awakening.

But it also seemed a little bitter, as if he was expecting her answer but didn't want to get one.

Lan Qi is feeling very conflicted right now.

Tingqiao could tell that he was a little upset this time, so he took a few steps towards the bay window and said, "That's convenient. You can come find me now. I haven't changed the password to the door."

Lan Qi had reminded her to change the password before, but she didn't care because the password door was just a decoration to her. It could block those who posed no threat to her, but couldn't block those who posed a threat to her.

Lan Qi responded very quickly: "Okay!"

Things turned around so quickly.

Since she said it was convenient, then it couldn't be...

Lan Qi's mood also became much more relaxed.

Zhou Jueming, who lied about military intelligence, tried to hide himself. "Ha... Well, I'll leave first..."

Lan Qi was too busy to deal with him at this moment, so he hurried forward, entered the password and opened the door.

Tingqiao sat back on the bay window, thinking that since she had just hung up the phone with him, he shouldn't come over so soon, but she soon heard the sound of the password door being unlocked.

That arrives so fast?

What's so urgent?

The door couldn't be seen from the bay window, but she could feel the blood of the person coming.

Tingqiao thought about it, took out his phone and sent him a message: [I'm in the room, you can come up directly. ]

She was too lazy to go downstairs and entertain in the living room.

I didn't put the phone down directly, but took a picture of the night view outside the window.

Well, it was dark and raining.

Feeling something was not right, she changed the angle and this time took the picture of the pomegranate juice, nut plate and tablet on the table, and then posted it on her Moments.

Tingqiao turned her head and looked at the collection in the cabinet in the room, thinking that she could show off to him later. By the way, she reminded him that if he wanted to give her a gift, it would be best if it was of this type.

She felt that Lan Qi was quite supportive. He liked every post on her Moments and replied to almost every comment.

Soon, a sound was heard outside the room.

Tingqiao raised his voice slightly: "Come in, the door is not locked."

Lan Qi hesitated at the door for half a minute before pushing it open. When he was outside the room, he suddenly realized that he was too anxious. He was not prepared for anything and did not really understand what she was thinking.

He reflected on himself calmly that day, but he couldn't understand what she was thinking... He admitted that he was thinking too much, but did she really not have any thoughts about him?

This thought went through my mind over and over again.

If she had any feelings for him, then they would continue like this, and eventually...

If she didn't, that doesn't mean there won't be one later.

He thought that in the eyes of the public, he was a good enough man and he was confident that he would not lose to others.

As soon as the door opened, Lan Qi quickly saw Tingqiao sitting on the bay window. She was wearing a light apricot bathrobe, her hair hanging softly to her waist, looking as if it had just been blow-dried.

Did she just take a shower?

No wonder I didn’t answer the calls just now.

By the way, where is the man Zhou Jueming was talking about?

Not in her room?

already left?

But he didn't see anyone coming out just now.

Lan Qi raised his eyes, but couldn't help but let them fall on her dark lips. This was... His brows furrowed slightly, but soon relaxed.

He saw the glass of pomegranate juice in her hand, which she had drunk a few sips of. Her lips should be stained by the juice, not by anyone...

Tingqiao saw his expression change several times, but this time he was not confused, because he had seen it so many times that he thought it was just his habit.

She only asked: "What's the urgent matter you mentioned?"

Tingqiao politely pointed to the soft sofa next to him and said, "You can sit there."

"Um……"

Lan Qi walked in slowly and sat down a little stiffly.

This is her room...

Everything here had probably been touched by her, including where he was sitting now.

It seemed as if her scent was everywhere and he had no way to escape it.

Lan Qi's throat suddenly felt tight.

Tingqiao saw that he didn't say anything and didn't urge him. Anyway, if there was an urgent matter, it would be his. If he didn't say anything now, it might be because he hadn't thought about what to say yet.

She simply continued watching the movie.

Perhaps finally calming down, Lan Qi looked at her and said, "My assistant said he saw you bring someone back..."

He didn't say this, because he didn't know how to ask her, and he couldn't say that he had been staring at the door for a long time.

...Maybe the person is in the guest room now?

Tingqiao replied casually: "Yes, the guy's name is Youniao. He brought me some local specialties and told me some things about his hometown."

So, they are friends from home?

It seems that all her friends are from the same hometown as her.

Lan Qi's sense of crisis did not dissipate, and he continued to speak in a tea-flavored tone: "So that's how it is. Actually, I heard from my assistant about that circle. Some people would..."

He paused, "I didn't know he was your friend before, and I was worried that you would be cheated, so..."

Tingqiao felt that he had said such words several times. He seemed to be very wary of Xiaoyi and the others, always reminding her to be careful.

She looked at him thoughtfully for a moment, "They probably wouldn't dare to lie to me."

Lan Qi pursed her lips, "Well... I don't know your friends very well."

He paused, "I haven't heard you talk about them before."

Tingqiao shook the pomegranate juice in the cup, looked at him and asked slowly: "So what do you want to know? I'm in the mood to chat now."

Lan Qi was slightly startled. He had not expected to have such an unexpected gain. His eyes flickered slightly. "Are you and your friends from the same hometown?"

He thought this was the only explanation that could explain why they seemed to be separated from him by something.

Tingqiao nodded, "Almost. We grew up together. They had a hard time when they were young, so they all followed me and were taken care of by me. That's why they all call me 'sister' now."

She herself doesn't think it's that difficult, it's just like fighting monsters and passing levels, she is always getting stronger.

She brought Xiaoyi and the others with her because she didn't want them to be discovered and attract more high-level vampires, which would implicate her and make it more difficult for her to pass the level.

Then they kept coming and going and refused to leave.

Lan Qi was silent for a moment after hearing this, "...So that's how it is."

He added, "You look smaller than them."

A smile immediately appeared in Tingqiao's beautiful eyes, "Haha, I think so too." Not at all modest.

Lan Xi then chatted with her about other things, and Ting Qiao would blur out the matter of the vampires before answering him, but the topic would go off track from time to time.

The atmosphere is still very harmonious.

During a break in the conversation, Lan Qi looked at her and suddenly asked, "You and me...Lin Ji, how did you and he know each other?"

Tingqiao blinked quickly and said, "Well, it's just an introduction from an elder."

She was telling the truth.

It’s just that this elder’s seniority is a bit high.

Lan Qi lowered his eyes, "Is that so."

His grandparents have passed away long ago, and there are no other relatives on Lin Ji's side, so it must be the elders on her side?

Lan Qi straightened his back nervously. What he was going to ask next was very important. He carefully considered his words in his mind, but what he asked in the end lacked any euphemism at all.

He asked bluntly: "So now... do you still like him?"

Tingqiao: "...?"
