That night, when Bei Lingfeng returned to the Bei Residence, it was already close to 10:30 PM.
By then, Sister Lin had already taken a shower. In the bedroom where the heater was on, she was wearing only a robe, with her newly dried hair draped over her shoulders, leaning against the large floor-to-ceiling window gazing at the distant city nightscape.
After Bei Lingfeng entered, he habitually took off his coat, removed his hat and scarf, changed into slippers, and then walked inside.
"Still not asleep? What are you looking at?"
Sister Lin withdrew her gaze and walked toward him, asking as she went, "What time is it? Why are you only coming back now?"
She looked quite upset.
Bei Lingfeng suddenly stopped in front of Sister Lin and asked, "I was just busy with company matters, lost track of time, so I came back late! What's up? Checking up on me?"
"Can't I?" Sister Lin raised an eyebrow in response.
