Stepping out of the elevator, Liang Mumu first headed to the hotel's ATM and withdrew some cash. After which, she walked over to the front desk and passed the room card to a receptionist on night shift. She left Han Jing's name on the card and deposited some cash on the card. After giving the receptionist a few reminders, she finally left the hotel.
It was already late at night, and the night breeze of early summer brought with it a slight chill.
Liang Mumu's gaze wandered around the busy streets for a while before she opened the car door and got into her car.
Instead of leaving, she turned on the music in the car and lowered the volume before waiting patiently.
Roughly twenty minutes later, a taxi stopped at the entrance of the hotel.
A man wearing a baseball cap, an orange T-shirt, black pants, and white sneakers alighted from the car.
Liang Mumu couldn't see the man's face clearly, but she had an impression of his clothes. Out of the few times she had met Han Jing, he had been wearing the same clothes more than half of the time.
After paying the taxi fare, the man quickly turned around and ran into the hotel lobby.
Through the hotel's glass window, Liang Mumu saw the man standing at the front desk for a moment before he grabbed a room card and headed for the elevator.
Just as the man's silhouette disappeared into the elevator, Liang Mumu's phone rang.
Picking up the call, she saw that it was from the receptionist whom she had paid earlier, "Miss Liang, Mister Han Jing has arrived. He just took the room card and went upstairs."
After hanging up the call, Liang Mumu sat in the car for a while longer before stepping on the accelerator and driving off.
After returning home, Liang Mumu parked her car in the garage. Instead of taking the elevator straight up, she took a detour to the courtyard to take a look at the villa next door.
The lights in Lin Jiage's bedroom were still dark. Most likely, he hadn't returned home for the weekend.
The curtains in Lin Jiayi's room were drawn, but one could still vaguely see light through the gaps in the curtains.
The lights in the largest master bedroom were still lit, and the curtains weren't drawn either. The lights in the study next door were also lit. Liang Mumu guessed that Lin Jiage's mother, Madam Jiang Wangui, was probably busy with work in the study.
"Miss Liang, you're back?" The sound of Liang Mumu's car returning woke the butler up.
Liang Mumu quickly retracted her gaze from the villa next door and rushed into the house. "Where are Big Aunt and Uncle?"
"Sir hasn't returned home yet. Madam is already asleep," the housekeeper replied.
"What about cousin?" Liang Mumu's parents were divorced, and she had been placed under Liang Jiusi's care ever since she was young.
"Young Master hasn't returned yet …"
"I see …" Liang Mumu didn't say anything else. She continued heading up the stairs, but after climbing five or six steps, she suddenly paused, "… Remember to wake me up at five tomorrow morning."
The butler was perplexed as to why Liang Mumu, who had been sleeping until noon, would wake up so early, but he still agreed to it.
After returning to her bedroom, Liang Mumu took a bath and went to sleep.
Although she had instructed the housekeeper to wake her up at five o 'clock, she hadn't been able to sleep all night because she was worried about something.
As soon as her alarm rang, she immediately got out of bed to wash up and put on her makeup. Two hours later, she was dressed neatly with her handbag in hand. She pressed on Lin Jiage's doorbell.
The one who opened the door was a servant who had worked in the Lin family for several years. Recognizing Liang Mumu, he eagerly led her into the house.
Before entering the room, Liang Mumu knew that Jiang Wangui and Lin Jiayi had already woken up.
