When they arrived at the hotel, Gu Qili was so hungry her stomach was growling, but she felt too embarrassed to mention it.
The group was checking in at the front desk, and Gu Qili, bored, scanned the lobby. She remembered coming here with a group of classmates for a vacation, and it felt like a distant memory that left no trace.
Li Ruhai and the rest finished their check-in, nodded in acknowledgment, and took off, leaving only Mu Shuoqian and Gu Qili behind.
The front desk was focused on the computer, while Mu Shuoqian was busily fiddling with his phone.
"I'm sorry, sir, there is only one room left," the front desk apologized in fluent English.
Gu Qili did not need to translate this, as Mu Shuoqian's English was excellent. His American English, combined with his unique baritone, could be described as "captivating."
Chen Yishu once suggested that he might have lived abroad, and his command of American English made her even more certain of Chen Yishu's speculation.
