When Qi Jiayi opened her eyes, the clock on the wall was pointing close to eleven o'clock in the morning, yet it was still drizzling outside, the sky was dim, making it appear as if the night had not completely retreated.
As a coastal city, Hong Kong Island spends more than three months each year in rainy days. Having lived in the north her whole life, Qi Jiayi was not accustomed to this midday darkness, but even more unsettling was...
the arm that traversed her smooth ribs, reaching somewhere.
When was the last time I shaved my armpits?
Qi Jiayi thought back for a moment, confirming that she had especially gone to a spa for hair removal before coming to Hong Kong Island, which calmed her down.
Then she chuckled to herself at her own thoughts.
Had she actually started caring about such things?
This was not like the carefree and solitary person she always was.
