Duan Shu Tong opened the hotel room door and saw that the clothing store had sent the suits over. There were two sets of clothes. The sizes seemed to be different, but the styles... they looked too similar. And why were there two sets of clothes?

"Are you Mr. Duan?"

"I am."

"Mr. Xi, who is staying in the neighboring room, is not here. He called and told us to deliver both sets of suits to Mr. Duan. Is that okay?"

Duan Shu Tong nodded. "Of course. Here, let me take it. Thank you for your hard work."

He made sure to ask for the price of the suits. Then he received the suits, closed the door, and hung the suits in the closet. After careful comparison, he found that although the two sets looked the same, there were slight differences in the details.

One of the suits gave a more stable vibe, while the other one seemed young and fresh.

Once again, Duan Shu Tong had to praise Xi Duan's thoughtfulness. He thought about it for a bit and then sent a WeChat message: The clothes have been received.

Xi Duan replied back in seconds: Good.

Huh? Wasn't he busy with work at the moment?

Duan Shu Tong immediately transferred money over to Xi Duan, but Xi Duan did not accept the money immediately. Rather, he waited a minute later before pressing the button to receive the money.

Duan Shu Tong's heart was a mess again. It seemed that as long as it was something that concerned Xi Duan, his imagination would run wild for half a day, trying to analyze it from every angle. It would seem that his sensibility had gone out the window. He could only rely on rationality to pull himself together.

He lied on the sofa and unwittingly fell asleep. When he woke up, he picked up his mobile phone and saw that it was five o'clock in the afternoon, and he had quite a few unread messages.

In addition to a few messages of encouragement in the family group chat, there was also one from Xi Duan that read: When should we have dinner?

The message was sent at 4:30 pm.

Duan Shu Tong hastily replied: Sorry, I fell asleep. Are you back?

After a few seconds, Xi Duan responded: En, I'm outside your door.

Duan Shu Tong jumped up from the sofa. He didn't have time to worry about whether he looked okay or not after just waking up. He ran to open the door.

Xi Duan's handsome but somewhat tired face came into view. When he saw Duan Shu Tong, he laughed unexpectedly, which immediately softened his cold and solemn temperament.

"What's wrong?" Duan Shu Tong touched his face, lest something strange on his face scared the other party.

Xi Duan clenched his fingers tightly. He meant to hold back, but seeing the young man's appearance after just waking up really tickled his heart, and he couldn't help reaching out to caress the young man's head.

"You have a cowlick."

Duan Shu Tong was stunned for a second. Then he turned around and rushed to the bathroom. The person reflected in the bathroom mirror had a strand of hair sticking up on his head and there was a red mark on his face.

Such bad luck. His image was ruined!

Xi Duan was still standing outside the door, his gaze gradually becoming darker.

Reason was telling him not to get too close to the young man, but there were more and more nets wrapping around his reason, not letting it express its opinion anymore.

Maybe one day, this thick net would strangle his reason, and then this terrible net would draw in another innocent person.

Xi Duan both wanted to see that day, but also did not want to see that day.

In the bathroom, Duan Shu Tong sorted out his appearance. Then he brought Xi Duan's suit over and handed it to him.

After putting away the clothes, the two walked to the elevator again.

The elevator door opened, and there was a woman inside. Her makeup was exquisite and her figure was beautiful. When she saw the two of them outside the elevator, her eyes lit up.

Duan Shu Tong lowered his head. He didn't care. Xi Duan ignored her.

After the elevator door closed, they could perceive that the perfume on the woman's body was a little strong. Duan Shu Tong was about to stick to a wall when he heard the beautiful woman say in surprise, "Isn't this Young Master Duan?!"

Duan Shu Tong looked up in bewilderment. He was at a loss.

The beautiful woman smiled charmingly, "It hasn't been that long has it? Young Master Duan doesn't remember me already? You used to call me darling, but Young Master Duan has changed a lot. I almost didn't recognize you just now."

As she spoke, her body leaned towards Duan Shu Tong.

Duan Shu Tong was about to step back when Xi Duan caught him tightly by the wrist. Xi Duan stepped forward to separate the two. His gaze was dense. His voice was cold and detached: "Please conduct yourself with dignity."

The beauty took a step back in shock. Coincidentally the elevator came to a stop and the door opened.

Xi Duan let go of the young man's wrist and strode out of the elevator with a cold expression. Duan Shu Tong was stunned. With his head in chaos, he followed after Xi Duan.

Behind him, the woman muttered: "Tut! So it's that kind of relationship."

Duan Shu Tong: ?!

Why don't you be clearer? What do you mean by that kind of relationship? Ah?!
