Chapter 996: A Minute Like A Year (2)

With that, Lin Jiayi asked again, “GPS, how tall are you?”

“185…”

“Oh, you’re really quite tall. You’re five centimeters taller than Qin Ting… I’m wearing high heels, and I’m about the same height as Qin Ting… When I was in high school, I was already over 1.7 meters tall. Back then, I wanted to find a boy who was at least 1.85 meters tall. Your height was my goal back then… GPS, to be honest with you, I was still a little disgusted by Qin Ting’s short stature at first…”

Upon reaching the entrance of the elevator, Xia Shangzhou took this opportunity to silence the crowd.

He raised his hand and pressed the button, thinking, ‘He doesn’t meet your initial requirements, but he’s the one you like. Even if I meet your initial requirements, I’m the one you won’t want… So, no matter how bad he is, in my opinion…’ I’m still envious of him.

After sending Lin Jiayi to the entrance of the Beijing Grand Hotel, Xia Shangzhou alighted from the car and opened the door for her. “I’ll wait for you in the car. Let me know when you’re done, and I’ll pick you up at the entrance.”

After alighting from the car, Lin Jiayi replied with a ‘alright’. However, just as she was about to step into the Beijing Grand Hotel, a thought suddenly struck her, she turned to Xia Shangzhou and said, “Go and have your meal. I Won’t be able to finish my work in a short period of time. Don’t wait in the car.”

Xia Shangzhou nodded in agreement.

After Lin Jiayi’s figure disappeared from the entrance of Beijing Grand Hotel, he opened the car door and got into the car.

He parked the car at the entrance of a nearby restaurant and ordered some food. Then, he turned on his computer and continued to eat while typing on his keyboard, busying himself with the unfinished work that he had done for her in the afternoon.

Whenever he didn’t finish a single piece of work, he would take a look at the time. Thirty minutes had passed since she had entered the Beijing Grand Hotel. An hour, an hour and a half, two hours… for some reason, the time tonight.., he felt like a long time had passed. It wasn’t that he wasn’t busy with work, but it was just that he felt as if time was passing by.

Two and a half hours after Lin Jiayi entered the Beijing Grand Hotel, Xia Shangzhou finally helped her with the rest of the day’s work.

It was already nine o’clock, and his phone was very quiet. She hadn’t called him to pick her up at the entrance yet.

With nothing else to do, time became even more unbearable. Xia Shangzhou stared out of the window in a daze for a while, staring at his computer for a while. No matter what he was thinking at the start.., in the end, all he could think about was whether she and Qin Ting were having a good time together..

Just before ten o’clock, Xia Shangzhou finally received a message from Lin Jiayi.

Like a condemned prisoner who had been released from prison, he heaved a sigh of relief. Then, he swiftly packed his things and drove to the entrance of the Beijing Grand Hotel.

A moment ago, he had parked his car, but a second later, through the revolving door, he saw Lin Jiayi and Qin Ting walking out of the elevator.

She had no idea what the two of them were talking about, but she was grinning from ear to ear.

Xia Shangzhou instinctively averted his gaze and waited for them to walk out of the revolving door before getting out of the car. He walked to the back seat and helped Lin Jiayi Open the car door.

Lin Jiayi and Qin Ting waved their hands and said ‘goodbye’before smiling as they got into the car.

Xia Shangzhou closed the door and nodded politely at Qin Ting before getting into the car.

A second after he started the car, Lin Jiayi sneezed behind him.
