Sonata: Fleeing to Avoid an Arranged Marriage(Hiatus)

Chapter 3

Chapter 3: To Make a Living — You have a tattoo? You wouldnt happen to be part of a shady society, right?

Mi Qing closed the door and saved Xiao Gus number to her phone.

She spent quite a while unpacking her luggage. After she finished, the sky outside had already darkened completely. Mi Qing looked and saw that it was time for the news broadcast. She rubbed her stomach and felt a little hungry, but she didnt know what she should eat.

Thinking this over for a moment, she took out one of the chocolate boxes she bought in the afternoon and unwrapped the delicate case, plucking one out of the tray.

The distinctive aroma of cocoa lingered around her nose. Mi Qing lightly bit into it. The exquisite chocolate and strong, savory strawberry filling melted between her lips and teeth, causing a trace of sweetness and unctuousness to emerge within her heart.

"Wu~ extremely delicious." Mi Qing happily sighed, swallowing the chocolate in her mouth completely. She once again extended a hand out to pluck another chocolate from the case.

As her delicate fingernail touched the chocolate, she hesitated for a moment. This case of chocolate only had eight pieces altogether; eating one meant having one less in the future.

Mi Qing withdrew her hand and licked her fingertips. She replaced the cover of the case.

She would save these to eat later; who knew how long these days of hunger would last?

At last solving her dinner problem, Mi Qing hugged her rabbit ear pajamas, wanting to take a bath. She first leaned her ear against the door to listen. Upon determining that there was no voices outside, she quickly opened the door and walked out.

Just as she closed the door, she caught sight of Xiao Gus pet husky standing at the end of the hallway, staring motionlessly at her.

"Ge⏤!" On the verge of letting out a shriek, she forcibly swallowed her voice, turning her shriek into a hiccup. At this moment, Xiao Gu wasnt present. If her shriek startled the dog, then she would have gone to the dogs.

She pretended that nothing had happened and, without glancing sideways, she quickly stepped towards the bathroom, opened the door, and entered.

The moment she locked the door, Mi Qing leaned back against it, her two legs softening and sliding to the ground.

Calming down her heartbeat, she inspected the bathroom she was in.

There wasnt a bathtub, which meant she couldnt immerse herself in a warm bath from now on.

Her lips thinned into a flat line. She arranged her body wash and shampoo on the shower rack before turning on the shower.

Once she finished her shower, Mi Qing was especially mindful. That husky was actually still sitting in its original position.

Once, again, she stuffed down a hiccup before quickly withdrawing her face. Like before, she didnt glance sideways as she walked back to her room.

Confirming twice that the door was locked, she collapsed onto the bed, lingering fears still plaguing her heart.

This bed looked nothing out of the ordinary, but it was still comfortable to lie down on.

She lay down for a moment before she went up to go to her dressing table, where she had already arranged her things, and picked up a small jar of Renewal Water Mask cream. After applying it to her face, she casually picked up a massage roller stick at the side and began massaging her calves.

The massage tool absorbed tiny electric currents that adhered to the muscle like magnets. Mi Qing sighed comfortably, thinking that she was finally feeling alive.
